Mondays... I hate Mondays...

I know it has been said and quoted a million times already, to a point it has already reached cliche-dom, if there is such a word, but I really hate Mondays... I have just spent, err... wasted three Rest Days of my work week. Being in a call center environment really takes away your Life; Life as we know it, that is. Working in from a Graveyard shift from 6pm to 5am, for 4 straight days then being on break for three "normal" days is not as easy as it sounds. After my circadian rhythm has normalized for three days, it will shift back again to my vampiry nights, leaving me awake for 24 hours straight from monday morning to dawn of tuesday... One good thing about today was my bus ride from Pampanga to Manila. It was the most relaxing ride I have had for the longest time. It was a Philippine Rabbit bus; those which come with big spacy seats and nice air conditioning... I had my headset on, and my 30 song playlist running on my trusty old SAP, man... it was bliss...4 hours later, I find myself in the office with barely enough stamina on to last me 5 hours... and I have 8 more hours left in my shift... Lord, help me... Good luck to my calls...

7 fridays in a week?

It's friday again; the best day of the week. Friday early morning is the only driving factor for me when starting off my work week. The moment I step into the office vicinity; the moment i smell the stuffy stench, er... stench is such a strong word... let's go with malodor of the office carpet on the 33rd floor... all im looking forward to is Friday mornings...

friday mornings not only signifies the end of the workweek, but it commences the 3day rest day for me... it's literally 72 hours of freedom from work... freedom to do whatever I want... freedom to waste time... This week, I'll be on my way to our province... not that there is anything to do in the ghost town... but it has already been a full month since i had gone there... I'm looking forward to seeing my cats... creatively named Itim (pic in my profile) ; and our barako, Muning; my dog, who has never taken a bath for at least a year now because he refuses to (again i had a hard time thinkin of his name, so I gave dubbed him, Tuta...), and my dear old car... who i have not steered for the longest time.

i have enough dough saved to have it's aircon filters cleaned and compressors changed, so Im really looking forward to coming home this weekend to give the old lady a test drive...

Also, I have never tried the new North Expressway which is miling each and every motorist that dared pass it's way... Let's see if the crappy commercial the government has been airing is at least 2% of the truth about the controversial route... I'm just hoping it would be a smooth ride home... I have my SAP and newly bought 256MB Sd card packed with wma's sacked... I'm ready for a break... I'm just hoping it would be long ride so I can enjoy the morning scenery of my dear old Pampanga while sound trippin myself home...

no wonder we don't have 7 fridays in a week... because it that were the case... fridays could be mondays! then it would suck...
