really tired from all this 'dirty laundry' piling up at my feet.

1)
grace wanted me to pick up my momentum again and increase my production as much as possible. i've not been closing any cases for like two months now... and i feel really miserable as my pay is stagnating and its not increasing at all. so she set me a task to do; to get three case studies every week and to discuss it with her every friday. i've been doing canvassing like crazy these days and i still see no shit! what the hell is wrong with meee???

2)
then i have this roadshow thing on wednesday and friday. and i have to stand from 10am till 9pm, which is like TOTALLY hardcore. and you know what, i was wearing my pretty pedro shoes on wednesday for the roadshow and when i reached home, my heels were red and blistery! it was so darn painful! i soaked them in some dettol-ed warm water and went straight to bed. it was sooo much better in the morning. so i decided to wear my pedro shoes again. bad choice. my feet start to work up by two pm. they start to get all achey and sore. that's it. for tomorrow's roadshow i'm soo gonna wear my bata shoes. they are like way more comfortable (and uglier) than my lovely pedros.

Its hard being a financial whore.

Oh My God. grace is on duty tomorrow!! i'm so gonna do some hardcore street prospecting lah! i'm so screwed tomorrow!!

but the good thing is, she wants me to pull in the prospects and get them to sit down. she will then do all the talking for me. she's like the bestest manager ever!!

Lastly, i was roped in to perform in a chamber recital lah!! its so screwed up! there's me, another trombonist, two french horns and a trumpet for our stint. this isn't as bad as the orchestral one!! i'm solo oboe in the orchestra!! that is like super duper screwed up!! to make matters worse, chamber practices are on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays while orchestral practices are on the rest of the week. practice is from 5pm till 10pm and my god! it was so tiring! thankfully i was invited to play, so i could literally throw my weight around a bit! hehe! i told them i work irregular hours (which is SOO true! i start work at 1pm and end at 7pm you know!!) and i am extremely tired after a day of work (facebooking). so they compromised. since i am already quite adapt with the trombone, they let me off. BUT i have to come for orchestral practice on saturdays and sundays. and the practice hours on weekends are even more anal! it starts at 10am and end at 9pm!! how screwed up can you get??

but!! there's a glimmer of hope!! the recital is postponed indefinitely as they have some issues with the concert venue. its suppossed to be at the victoria concert hall. i think we're shifting to the esplanade... OMG!!! the esplanade has far superior acoustics!!! i'm so gonna get embarassed in front of the atas lot!! omg omg omg!!!

i sooo need my pay now....
