first post is always sacrificed to test things.

waking up earlier than usual took its toll. i was a grumpier than ever. but i had to come in early for another round of endless discussions with our dear client. i have a sinking feeling that this will not be a good day.

coffee didn't help of course. but that's sort of a given. i've been reading the 7th book of the Harry Potter series (shut up, i like it) for 2 nights in a row. i'm 75% done. reading has always been a way to calm me down. Harry Potter is the lightest and cheeriest book in my shelves right now, i figured this would help me deal with my otherwise fucked up demeanor. of course, i'm being ridiculous. don't bother to care.

every time i get the urge to show any kind of fury towards my job, i block it by constantly thinking about my plan. over and over and over again. it was just last night that i committed myself wholly to it and i am determined to stick with this plan even if it kills me.

and so it begins.

disclaimer:  i cannot seem to get myself together.  i've been away from home for almost a week and my head is still in safe mode or something.  my thoughts are just completely out of whack and it may take a while before i reboot.  so please bear with all the unnecessary bullshit, grammatical errors and insane language. a lot of friends have been asking me how things are over here.  well...contrary to what people say (and by 'people', i meant my agency), its not as easy as they make it out to be. but i am getting ahead of myself. first things first. before i arrived in auckland, i had to endure a long and bitter flight from manila.  since there is no such thing as a direct flight, my itinerary said that i have a 4-hour layover in Singapore.  this is fine.  my ticket also included meals and 40kg worth of check-in luggage.  i carried a backpack and a sling bag for my carry-on with the latter starting to (horribly) disintegrate a...

week 3: independence ba kamo?

this is by far the most interesting week, though in a way, the most depressing one as well.  but where to start?  hmm.  well, i finally found the courage to actually walk-in and ask for a part-time job.  and knowing what a geek i am, where do i do that exactly?  at the city library of course.  haha.  how fucking crazy is that?  anyway, i wanted to go to that art film thing and since it's just next to the library, it was a 2 birds and 1 stone scenario. the library people just basically told me to fuck off which wasn't cool haha.  so i went to the cinema hoping it gets better.  when i got there, there was no one around.  i walked around a bit.  went back and the place was still deserted.  then i saw a doorbell thing and it says "academy cinema" or something to that effect.  so i rang it.  some rude guy picked up and basically told me to wait until 6pm and to fuck off.  what the hell is up with the univer...
