i am not an auditory person

which is very ironic, considering that my current post requires a lot of listening. and i do mean A LOT. which is why it takes me a long time to accomplish my deliverables.

i've been here for over four hours now, and i'm not even one-thirds done. grr... i was really hoping i finish everything today, so by tomorrow i will engage myself with other tasks at hand. this transitioning phase is not as easy as i thought it would. but i'm not complaining. it just challenges me to bring back the OC in me. in order for me to do that i would need to:

- finish all deliverables. that includes the grueling auditory task, plus sessions with my direct reports. the last one, i may add.
- clear my desk. this i need to do asap. after all, they'll be adding a monitor (i think it's 21-inches), since the laptop screen would be too small for the systems we shall be using. good luck with that!
- handle all housekeeping stuff - especially financials
- make my starbucks planner the love of my life (heck, i'm single anyway).

not too difficult when you think about it, eh? other things i need to accomplish include typing tutor (in order for me to type CORRECTLY), excel learnings (i have the tools!), working out and taking care of myself more. see? easy peasy lemon squeezy!

realignment

after seeing other people’s pictures, profiles and whatnots, i decided that a realignment of my priorities is necessary. thanks to these social networking sites, it’s very easy to see what friends, friends of friends, and even complete strangers are up to. if they are getting what they want, there’s no reason why i shouldnt be in a similar situation.

whilst i still do not totally know what my priorities are, i am slowly getting there. let’s take a look at some of the things that really make me happy: traveling. good food. beautiful places. beautiful people. music. art. movies. long conversations. reading. friends.

it may seem like i already know what i want. trust me, that’s far from the truth. i know that i shall realise it this year (if the predictions come true). until then, i shall just continue with what i’m doing. i am never one to settle for mediocrity, and i consider that as one of my strengths. so no matter what it is i’m doing, i give it my best.

how long will this realignment going to take place? i haven’t the slightest idea. but hey, at this point i should be through with being impatient. it will come, it will come.
