hearty seconds ...

finally got dj to help edit my blog page.  i had to remove dj's link from my blog page because there are stuffs in his blog that others may not find amusing.  there are only a few people who knows about dj's blog address - its really a nice read.  i always get a kick reading his blogs - they're quite  fun to read especially if you have a sense of humor.  i don't know if i can make my blog that exciting to read but that is really not the reason i've created this blog.

 

i've been stuck home yesterday and today because i wasn't feeling very well with colds and a slight fever.  i feel better today actually but i decided to just work from home because i know that if i work in CV today, the cold will make me sick again.  working from home is actually better for me : (1) i get to work while downloading the latest episodes of all my favorite US TV series in my other pc; (2) i don't have to drive for 2.5-3 hours to & fro; (3) it saves gas (though i don't really need to ... but hey, helps mother nature); and (4) i can rest when i need to.  ok, so the last item might be too much of a giveaway.  so sometimes i do slack off --- not so much though, i do compensate for it by working earlier, like at the wee hours of the morning or at any ungodly hour when i have to pick up the pace.  i do meet all my deadlines.  i guess after eight years of working, you do pick up a few tricks that makes you work smarter.  so there you have it ... i'm not a super workaholic like arlene, i'm not a super serious worker like raf ... i prefer to see myself balanced between work & fun.

 

i started downloading 'rome' yesterday.  its a series about 'rome' and julius caesar and some soldiers from hbo.  its actually pretty awesome.  the story is quite interesting and i started watching it when i was in the u.s. a few weeks back.  i can't believe it wasn't part of my download list when i got back.  well, i'm now downloading episode 4.  so i am pretty much catching up.  ever since i got dsl, i've been downloading every tv series that interests me non-stop.  its like a drug -- i'm hooked watching oc, one tree hill, desperate housewives, lost, nip/tuck, supernatural, reunion and alias.  they're just so damn addicting and i think i managed to infect some of my officemates already with this addiction to these tv series.  can't wait for next episodes ....
