Not Ready To Leave Yet!
Wednesday, October 12, 2005
So for the past two weeks, I feel like I've been running around like a headless chicken. (Well, except when I'm sleeping from like 5am to 1pm). I've got anniversary parties to take care of (almost every two weeks from September 14 to November 8), events to organize which are held in Boracay on every October weekend, promos to run, gazillion letters and quotations to send out, email barrages to do, payments to request, etc. I may be stressed out but the weird thing is... I'm enjoying it.
For months on end, I've been so excited to go to Boracay for our branch's anniversary. First, Seph, our creative designer, and Ramon, her husband and our part time IT personnel, are coming with us. Seph and I are like sidekicks in the office. I am her superior but we get along so well. In fact, I cringe when she introduces me as her boss. Secondly, almost all of the members of the management team are going (except for the Manila branch managers who have to stay in their outlets to oversee operations) and I swear, these people are the best people to party with. They're just laugh trips! Third, I was able to convince Globe to get 2 of our regular bands to perform for the anniversary as a sort of bonus for them for doing sooo well. The members of these bands have become good friends of the management team of the bar. Lastly, so many people are going to Boracay just for the anniversary. I'm talking about our super regular guests who we no longer consider as guests but friends.
Unfortunately for me, the excitement died down when I entered the office just this Monday. First, I wasn't feeling well. My immune system was down because the crimson tide came. Secondly, the crimson tide (which is actually okay. I'm more worried about my eating habits around this time of the month). And lastly, there is still so much work to do!!!
But I think I've managed to finish everything I've done. I can't tell yet. The anxiety of "what if I forgot to do something?!" is still there. I hope this feeling will wear off by tomorrow. And I hope I don't receive any ASAP requests while I'm in Boracay because that would just plainly SUCK. There is no email there, you know! I gotta go far for that!
Anyway, we had a SUPER Sunday celebrating my grandmother's 66th birthday. Click on my sister Ara's blog to know what gimmick we did.
In the meantime, enjoy the rest of the week and the weekend as well!!!
