the semi-workaholic takes a break + joined PhotoHunt "Skinny" theme
January 14, 2008for the first time since i started work at the new company (which was on the 1st week of november), i never missed a workday.
no absence. no logging out early. just late for 2 minutes about twice.
i went to work once on a sunday after partying the night before…i barely had 3 hours sleep…i was allover my keyboard trying to figure out what i was doing at the office when i should have just called in sick to sleep the whole day…but i stayed…until 6pm…playing online games in between napping and doing reports…
i had a dog bite scare (which is really not a dogbite but an eeny weeny scratch on one of my legs) where out of paranoia, i insisted on going to the hospital 3 hours later at 10pm after i got the scratch to have 2 really painful shots…then went to La Union in the morning at 9 to do business in 2 nearby municipalities and was on a bus home by 12nn…my eeny weeny scratch was still stinging and my left arm still hurt from one of the shots…then i stayed at the office until past 7…going absent dint even cross my mind…
but today was different…i really can’t get myself to go to work…i was feverish…just a little…but i dint want to push my body to its limits and end up getting really sick instead…so at 8am, i called in sick…
i was thinking of going to work on my next day-off to compensate this one absence but i thought, what the hell…im not that workaholic…
~ * ~ * ~ * ~
so…i joined a 100-film challenge for 2008…i love movies and DVD marathons and lounging and i was a couch potato in my past life…sort of…ive watched a couple already…some on DVD, some on cable television (Star Movies i love) and one at the theatre…
1. National Treasure: Book of Secrets
2. American Pie 6: Beta House
3. Bring It On 4
4. Akeela and the Bee
5. Alfie
6. Paparazzi
7. Fly Boys
8. Grandma’s Boy
so there…92 movies more to go…and im not stopping!
nway will put a sidebar for this challenge later on…im just not up for it right now…

lounging the whole day on a monday is loooooveeeeee…..

hmm, the 100-film challenge seems interesting. gawin ko rin kaya yun?
thanks for dropping by my site. 
…and still, you mustered enough energy to blog about it. hehe! you’re one supah woman.
anyway.. about movies/films… ah really?! now we had one thing in common. I collect films! though in original vcd format nga lang. pero ayos na sakin yun. kesa naman pirated. i mean.. who wants to collect pirated and-off-the-cinema captured dvd copies diba? hehe!
Oh yeah.. American Pie 6, beta house. I liked that, too. outrageous yung line ng isang girl ni coozeman dun na.. “Suck my CO*K!!” hehe!
anyway.. im writing this comment at around 5am now. geez.. Insomnia Mode: On.
Good luck sa contest!
