on writing, and being sick, and whatnots

Hello there. 

*** 

I am sick. Colds. And high fever.

I was too tired last night I wasn’t able to stay up late like I usually do. But then, I woke up too early today because I can’t take the chills and all. So I woke up and informed my ever loving mother that I’m sick. And I was advised to take meds immediately. Oh, she said I should eat first. So there, I had croissant and milk and then meds.

And now I am blogging.

I was actually preparing the slides for our team meeting earlier. But somehow, I got stuck on the part where I’m supposed to give a little lecture on an application where I have been identified to be an expert. Honestly, I don’t think there’s something I know that my teammates are unaware of. To give you a little background, I am the most recent part of the team, together with one guy who is like 6 or 7 years of my senior and have had more experiences that I do. Also, I can’t think of any jokes to present today. I am not in the mood to makeup jokes. The joke, as a matter of fact, is I am sick and I might not be able to walk to work today. That means more work on the next day. And that also means I might not be able to see and hug my boyfriend.

There’s a  coming presentation by the end of May. They call it ‘The Roast’. I call it, ‘The Interview’. And it’s scaring the hell out of me. I have not been an achiever for the past months and it is quite disappointing for me. I have three weeks still to become one and I doubt my own self. I need to present in front of a panel that the company is getting the hell all it can get from me. I need to prove that I am worth my compensation. No, I’m not making it sound like it sucks bigtime, of course not. No pun intended.

I heard from a friend yesterday. I was shocked because he got terminated on his sixth month. I feel bad about it. It has been two months now, and I never knew until I asked him for some links that I needed on the company website. And then I learned the news. I feel bad it actually took me two months to IM him. I must be an awful friend.

My mother has just arrived picking stuff  from the market. She’s cooking beef nilaga for lunch because I requested and she have to submit because I am sick. Evil me. Sweet of her.

I have draft my letter to my team leads. I am yet to send it. Because I’m not sure of it. What do yoo think? 

This is to inform you that I might not be able to go to work later. I caught fever and colds last night. Can I work from home instead? Or if I don’t get well later, I might not be able to work even at home so I will be calling in sick instead. But if my body cooperates, I might go to work. This is only to give you heads up.
Also, my phone is broken. Any concerns, please IM or email me. Thanks! 

Hmm I think I need to rest now. Haha. More post next time. My eyes are getting heavier and the chills are not going away. I need to hit the sack.
