People need to realize that much as some of them are perpetually wrapped up in their own lives, they do not live in a vacuum. Things they do, things they don’t do; decisions they make, decisions they can’t or won’t make; matters they take on, matters they neglect, willfully or otherwise- all have ripple effects [...]

systems crashing

So, this is the gig: This girl was was working on her company webpage when in the publishing of the page, she accidentally wrote over her CORE COMPANY FOLDER. To put things plainly, all her core files- her slides, program materials, resources, corporate logistics and stuff were wiped out. Completely and utterly wiped out.
And she [...]

This girl is finding herself in a very rare position these days: she’s fighting what seems to be a losing battle with her very long- and getting longer- to do list. It seems to keep growing and she can’t seem to catch her breath. Miss Pedantic is worked to the bone, a state to which [...]
dealing with notions of mortality
Posted in chapters, emo-ments, life learnings on July 28, 2008 | 1 Comment »
For some odd reason this girl has had a mild crisis of mortality. Its not so much like she’s ill or anything, but just the notions of life, the life we lead, and death has been oddly murky at the back of her mind. In the course of her training career thus far, she’s met [...]

The fact that this girl loves cars is no big secret. For the longest time she carried a Mclaren F1 car replica as a keychain (it was a 2″replica that cost an arm and a leg as far as keychains go) and wrapped her entire family’s schedule around her F1 racing qualifying and racing schedule. [...]

This girl and The Prefect have been taking up golf- again. Actually, The Prefect already has her PC but is taking it at their common home club with this girl. Truth be told, The Prefect has great potential- their coach feels she could go from good to great if she just, em, worked on her [...]

It has been one of those incredibly insane mornings.
This girl slept through her very loud first alarm (she has three). The Boy has no clue how she did that given he had to reach over her to turn it off. They put it down to her sheer exhaustion from her equally insanely long day before [...]
regrouping

Don’t know about you, but this girl likes to work in complete silence. And if she can manage, a room that is mildly breezy, with open windows and no air-conditioning. She knows there are some of her friends that like to work with music blasting on the radio or with the TV on; they claim [...]

There are many things in life that hold us back: fear, apprehension, anxiety, sadness, anger. But none as great as Regret. It is a state, a situation, a circumstance we are all familiar with; some people more intimately than others. For some of us, its a necessary rite of passage, the proverbial track through the [...]

Most of her close friends know that she starts and closes chapters really well. This girl is resolute. she only knows how to move forward once she’s made up her mind. This girl is often clear-minded. She never likes to second guess herself after already putting herself what is usually a long, demanding decision making [...]
the silence of a secret

Silence is underrated. Truly.
Several years ago, this girl left The First Company (which she should really call the Cukoo Nest) and went into business with an old friend who was also her then training partner. They had a good thing going, really, when they trained and were pretty much a powerhouse to be reckon with. [...]
missing the boy

Its not like he’s been gone for a long time, really, its just a couple of days.
Maybe its her illness, maybe its her busy schedule that leaves her exhausted at the end of the day, maybe its her time-of-the-month emo-ness, or maybe, even just cos she’s been having a pensive few days. Whatever the reason; [...]
Love in any Language: Part I
Posted in emo-ments, life learnings, the sock shop, travel on July 15, 2008 | 3 Comments »
Its funny, this world. How everything is. On one hand, there is the decadent extravagance of countries oosing with deep pocket resources: boomtown charlie economies; lands of milk, honey, and some say, oil; stable governments that take steady step after steady step. The rich seem to get richer- or at the least, remain somewhat stable- [...]
