From Left to Right: Miss Armpits-Smell-Like-Onions
(formerly known as Miss Disgusting in previous posts),
Yours Truly and the now-infamous Beef Jerky. =p


Not cos we look hot or cos
the composition's awesome.

But cos it says a lot.

It tells of what my life at work is like – half the time, none of it even really feels like work. And it serves to remind me of the things that (and the people who) keep me doing what I do. I mean, sure, there are bad days. Tough days. I-just-wanna-kill-myself-or-crucify-a-Suit days. But there are also things I've found in this hoopla that I wouldn't give up for the world. (That includes people, too.)


I did some thinking last night. And the night before that. Just cos it felt like time for a little bit of "ambition assessment" – no biggie. Some career-goal-vs-personal-happiness reflection, smart-sounding bla bla I thought I should take time to think about lah. Funny thing is that I found this time no different from the other times.


Upon digging deep down inside to check myself (and successfully blackmailing my sleep-deprived, half-empty, almost-dead brain into getting down to the crux of the matter), I ended up coming to the same conclusion as always:

I keep doing it cos I love doing what I do
and I love doing it with the people I do it with.

Case in point: Miss Armpits-Smell-Like-Onions, Beef Jerky and I, we're part of a team. We deal with each other daily. Sometimes even HOURLY. Haha. (And mind you, that's a lot of Onions and Beef Jerky to take!) The awesome thing is that this picture shows me how close we've become in spite of what we put each other through daily. (I think that, generally speaking, it's pretty rare that Suits and Creatives are this close without the presence of Alcohol.)

These are times to remember.

Cos it's times like these that make
all the other less-than-fun times
worth every frown, spat, or late night.

p/s: I had a new top and a new pair of jeans on today. And my new classic-ish Converse shoes were only in their second wear. Wheee!
