…always get me down!
Yes, it is Monday and it is raining.
I think I will join The Carpenters and Garfield on the anti-Monday campaign. Well, I really don’t hate each and every Monday, it’s just that today doesn’t feel right for me.
I never liked and never will like rain. Although, as a little girl, I used to play in the rain with my neighbours. I remember when it is really poured, as it is typical in the Philippines, I would run to my Lola Nini (my grand aunt) so she could put baby oil in my back. Never really understood why I do need to be ‘oiled’. Then I go running to the nearest alulod and ‘shower’ — with my clothes on, of course! Yes, even after that, I still didn’t grow to enjoy the heaven’s downpour of tears.
As if the rain isn’t bad enough, I swallowed a mint! It was the size of a normal vitamin pill and as I write this post, I could still feel it lodged in my throat. I do hope that it will dissolve soon. Otherwise, how else can I take that out? :tired:
On a brighter side, a head hunter (with a very heavy Irish accent) rang me around lunchtime offering me a job. He said that their client – a big IT consulting company – is looking for consultants who have experience in implementing billing and CIS systems. He didn’t specify if it was for a permanent or contractual post but he did mention that the project site will be at Worthing, in West Sussex. It does sound attractive but I had to turn it down. As I told him, “I’m happily employed at the moment.” I do have job security at the moment and I’m very thankful for that. Much as the offer seemed to be really challenging (and possibly would pay well likewise), I still have a lot to take from my position and I know that the company also has still has a lot to take from me. I just hope that when I reach that point where I need to move on, opportunities like this will just be round the corner.
Ah Monday…only 5 more hours to go! Come back next week with more sunshine please!

Still it was nice of them to remind you how valuable your experience is right? Heheh.. Yes, today so many things have gone wrong for me I just want to bury me head under the covers or immerse myself in a book. Sigh. Let’s hope that tomorrow’s better.
bloghopping… Very interesting site. I love the rainy days and mondays song.. and i really really hate mondays too! :cheerful:
Charl so great to know that you are happily employed!
kelan kaya ako?:blockhead:
to pinayhekmi: yes, today was better than yesterday but i could still feel that i’m on the brink of a psychosomatic breakdown.
to eric: thanks for dropping by. hope you’ll visit again soon.
to tuscanny: nikks, just hang in there. most of it, actually, will be attributed to the fact na dapat alam mo na kung ano ang gusto mong gawin. sometimes, unplugging from the present conditions without having anything in the horizon will help you. survival instincts will definitely kick in. wag lang paabutin to the level of desperation. (i’m babbling…)
Aba, parang duck ka pala, oil on the back before frolicking in the rain – except that ducks are naturally oiled, hehehe! But what a cute story, I’m imagining a little bru running to Lola. :cheerful:
Sayang! If only you saw the headhunter with the heavy Irish accent and if he looks like Pierce Brosnan or Aidan Quinn (sino pa ba mga Irish cuties?), ako na yung magvo-volunteer in your stead. Pakisabi lang na yung expertise ko rapid deployment force. This is related to your last entry, tee hee hee! :blush3:
I suddenly feel embarassed but won’t re-write my comment. :upsidedown:
