Eat, Pray, Love @ the Earthling's Haven
Thursday, February 16, 2006 The Fat Earthling can finally take a "short" break (really pathetically short)

PHEW! I finally finished my project at work. Rewarded myself with a new coin pouch, new shoes and new dress. Seems like the reward system is getting to me. Shopping has become a therapeutic but expensive habit over these years as I started my first official job. Not a healthy way to destress, as one friend gently put across to me one year ago, that I need to get those nitty gritty nasty work completed instead of putting them off and escaping from them like a terrified rabbit. ( Indeed, I have experienced sleepless nights last year because of work and the idiots I have to unfortunately work with.)
I succeeded as I found myself to be surprisingly efficient in my tasks this year. ( 3 cheers for the fat earthling, hip hip hurray!) However, with my increased efficiency in work, my tolerance for irresponsible bummers decreased at an alarming rate. Raising my voice at these irritants seems like a habit that have slowly became part of me. (Hey! The Fat Earthling is supposed to be a "sweet tempered and gentle lady"! LIKE REAL! But that's how one lecturer described me only to have me widening my eyes in horror at my "informal" testimonial that she had so painstaking collated and written for eveyone in the class . That was supposed to be some kinda "boost your confidence" session during this Caregroup activity)
Well, Being "gentle and sweet-tempered" doesn't boost my confidence one bit. It sounds like a more subtle and gentle version of "She's a pushover, an easy target, timid....blah blah blah" WTH!
I decided to take a few days to detox both my body and my mind. Going to read the book that Ris have lent me since sometime last year-The One Minute Manager Meets The Monkeys"
