Draggin ma feet

Just realized it’s been almost a month since the last time I wrote somethin. My guess was around before Eid. If that’s so then gotta say Happy Eid Mubarak (masih sempet ngga’ ya :P ?). A month . . a whole lot of things have passed . . . its just a few weeks ago . . . but already seemed like a year ago.

I guess I’ll pick up before Eid. The aura in the office was already full of vacation leave. Luckily transactions followed suit around those days, so we were pretty much left with plenty of time to enjoy work. It was also during these times that we finally could go home on time !! :D. As we were meant to go home on 16.30, reality really bites for not able to do so. Thanks to the japs that really make life hard for socializing . . . .

Though it was a happy time that I could finally enjoy my Eid @ home after 2 years doing it abroad, the sensation was already different. I now had to do it in time constraints as collective leave was only given for 5 days. That equates to 4 days to me since I had to go back earlier due to the unluckiness of getting a ticket a day quicker than supposed to be. Though short, I just had to make the best of things, from seeing relatives to my girl.

My free day in Jakarta had to be filled up properly. But the word “properly” still means I have to do some left over home chores. So . . . before lingering round the city alone, some washing & cleaning had to be settled first. Cruising round the city, it sure was pleasant to enjoy the roads of Jakarta when most of its citizens are on leave to their home/ancestral towns. Wished things were always like this . . . .

But work called and there I was back again on my desk. This time, my final week in the FRD. Though things were still slow due to the vacation, I had to patch things up for my upcoming presentation and the transition to the next department. All those rounds of things really left my body kinda low on blood. Literally, I was already starting to drag my body around.

The next week, I was already on the credit service department. And as my previous mentor said, It’s not about the quantity here . . . it’s more on the quality side. The work gets more and more tedious with piles of paper work to finish of each every end of the day. There was almost one day that I even really felt I was literally already drowning inside the papers :-S.

With a shortage of workers and the rising pile of workload due to EoM . . . . . things were really gettin worst. I really made one cancellation and caused another one for my workmate. Not a really good thing to do while I’m still starting to get myself settled in the new dept. But really . . . . . with all those + the lack of proper health and stamina, working lately has really been a bloody struggle for me. Going back home really means just laying my back on the bed as I almost have literally no energy at all to do something worthwhile . . . Life has been degraded to just waiting for weekend to come and catch up with the missed sleep that have passed.

As things would still continue on . . . . with worsen conditions to expect, guess the only thing left is to drag my feet quicker and quicker to catch up with the pace of others . . . . . . . . .
