JOURNAL | Introduction to Theater

Introduction to Theater

I have always been a fan of theater productions. In fact, I used to be a stage actor when I was in high school. Every single moment spent with my co-actors is a time well spent. There is certainly that unexplainable feeling that you can only get from becoming a part of a stage play. Hard work and patience really took root on me as we rehearse plays days after days, to think that during this time, I had to balance my high school academic life and acting career (so to speak).

I feel like I need to go back to my old life

With homework all looming like mills around my neck, there is an urgent call to revert to the old self I used to be. But there is no telling if that would be helpful. It's just that now, everything is too much for me to take. I am suffocating from all the stress I have to endure. I just don't know how long I can keep holding on.

JOURNAL | With eyes drooping

With eyes drooping

My Lord I am so tired. I won't ever chat with -a- again. This is seriously killing me. I'm losing time, money, and health but I don't get anything in return except for droopy eyes. When I get back home, I'll take a bath, drink milk, brush teeth and sleep. I need to rest today.

JOURNAL | Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve

It's Christmas eve. Boss had an accident when I arrived at the office. What a time to have stitches. So sad. It's only a couple of hours before Christmas comes but I feel like I have not prepared well for this season. No gifts, no nothing. But what can I do when I'm facing poverty this time. I know it is difficult but it is just temporary. I'll get over this soon. To be exact, I'll be over this next when year when I can finally find a job that would enable me to save lots of money so I can travel to Korea and perhaps to Europe too. The road is not easy but I'll manage.

CORPORATE | There he goes again

There he goes again

This is getting serious. BK's offline again. It's like we're not taking this business seriously. Darn, getting up at 4am is not something youu can just ignore. And I am so pissed off. My head's swinging now after sleeping for an hour and I bet I'll be dozing the rest of the day but I still have to meet Neo later. Arrgghhh.

JOURNAL | Irritated

Irritated

Perhaps Saturday's failure to get enough sleep plus Sunday's walking/ drinking with Korean friends made me so irritated today. Every single noise from the tricycle's loud whirring to people's above the decibel's voices just makes me wanna shout or run away. It's just too much to take. I'm still sleepy and groggy, how bad can that get. Anyway, I just checked LiveJournal and I think it is better than blosgpot in terms of its designs so soon I'll be moving my entries from blogspot to the other. Too bad blogspot has only a limited types of skins. Too boring.
