One Step at a Time

Author: nattsumi

I was blessed with good news today: after two years of applying for several office posting, I might actually get one; opposed to position in the warehouse.

I thought I would be more exited. But I had planned on having fun this summer by seeing a couple of games and hiking a few trails. Although I continued applying for postings that suited me, I didn’t expect to get one; in some cases, I hoped I didn’t get the posting due to time conflicts with other events.

The sad reality is slowly setting in: I will be working seven days a week for 4-6 months. As much as I want to get more work experience under my belt, I didn’t realize that the time is soon approaching. No more wishing or dreaming. Isn’t it sad that I wish and dream to work?

Since I will be grinding for such a long period of time, I was thinking about ways to motivate myself. A co-worker of mine motivates himself by thinking of another hardcore employee who works 80+ hours a week. I have seen Mr. hardcore fall asleep with his mouth open and a potato chip just dangling between his lips and fingers. So all I need to do is find some inspiration. If not, I’ll be doomed after the first month.

Anyway, I’ll take some time to apologize to my friends, especially my Victorian ones. I had planned a trip to Victoria near the end of September, but that trip will have to be postponed to around December. I do have my birthday week off. So maybe some nostalgia can be rekindled there. ’til then, wish me luck boys. My life is officially over (at least for 4-6 months).
