Another Longish Day At Work


That is my breakfast. It's kopi in one of those hard to handle packets, and a bag of that colourful biscuit, bought especially by the sis from somewhere in Buona Vista.

Last night was a good night, not the same as last week's Zouk night, but worthy of the same satisfaction. More or less, cause they were both enjoyable evenings, and we both know those have been in short supply since India. It was enjoyable cause the company was excellent. We kinda inaugurated a new member into the gang, how long he'll last I wouldn't know, but the guy's Joan's Boyfriend, and also the first of the "spouses" we've ALL met and hung out with, so I'm thinking he'll be around longer than the rest.

But it was good last night to hang out with the Trinity, and now adding Matthew it'll be like the Scooby Gang or something. I've been thinking about it and this really reminds me of some show, but I can't seem to place my hand on it.

Last night we bet that out of all of us, Andrea would probably be the first to get married. I reasoned that either Joan and Sze Wenn are too obvious as choices for such an undertaking, and knowing how Fate tends to work out, it's the one who's least likely. And it's definitely not me, cause I'm too poor for marriage and also not that interested in anyone to want to ask for their hand. So Loke's the one.

Last week was also officially Erwin's Most Scandalous Week 2008. It tops even last year's events. By a lot. I've officially reached peaked all the good intentions necessary for road paving.

And then I realise that I've got the knack for picking them, and also that I tend to get a little emotionally attached. Which in this course of action, is I suppose, a big no-no. This is a little warped, but when you're embroiled in events such as these, one has to adapt somewhat. So I've abandoned morality, or at least I've come to an arrangement with myself that allows me to function without constant self-loathing, and a reasoning that is utilitarian in its direction.

But anyway, this is a work blog and as such I should relegate my entries to their various departments. No point having 3 (that you know of) blogs when I'm indiscriminately writing everywhere right?

Work has been... dull. I get errands to run, small assignments of no consequence to complete, and script-reading. Script-reading is my favourite part thus far, cause I get to read stuff and then critique on them. And even if my input isn't really valued (cause when you're an intern it's bad enough, but when you look and sound like me your credibility crashes below the negative), at least it's there on paper and I'm learning some stuff for myself.

But besides that... nothing really. But I'm hopeful, and I'm really able to enjoy nua-ing, even if it's in an office and I've got to constantly grapple with guilt about not doing anything (as of that moment). But I'm willing to wait, cause I know when things start to happen I just might have too much on my hands. This wisdom has come from NS and the other internship. When there's time, enjoy it.

So I do. A little too much sometimes, but I do.
