Thirty minutes more and I'm outta here. After enduring 32 hours (yeah i only went to work for 4 days), I am finally walking out of this damn office, and regaining my life back. But then again, I dare ask -- What life?
If someone asked me to describe what my life is right now, I have to scan the dictionary for the whole day to come up with the apt description. Not because my sorry-ass-english is failing me, but because as usual I am at a lost.
Let me get started with my typical day. I wake up usually around 6:30 AM, too early for my 9-6 job, but definitely late if I want to hit the gym. So normally, I would go straight to the bathroom to take my mandatory body clean-up, which normally takes about 20 minutes (sheesh need to spend more time cleaning myself!). After that would be the dreaded what-should-wear-for-the-day-decision. And most of the times I don't like to decide so I just pick up whatever comes to mind. Like my purple blouse and black pants and my purple blouse and black pants again...no it is not my office uniform. Next stop, is packing my gym bag. Scurrying back and forth looking for my rubber shoes, towels, deodorant, etc. Then I'm off to my sister's car, if she is still waiting for me.
While in the car, I'll hastily comb my hair and check my stuff if I forget anything. Next stop, Magallanes. Crossing the main road is easy for me, since I spent most of my life commuting here and there, so the thought of being run-over doesn't scare me at all (only sometimes).
Usually there is no cues in the jeepney terminal going to Ayala. But for the life of me, I don't know why it is always muddy in that area. Well guess have to live with it. The ride from Magallanes to Ayala is usually uneventful. Except when there is a rare cutie who happens to sit with me (oh dear! help...palpitations) or when a not-so-young woman is wearing this ultra-mini skirt which happens to be her office uniform. I can't help but stare at her, though I divert my attention quickly so I wont be discovered. hehehe (am i a pervert then?)
Stop, ayala. The long trek to JG Summit is compensated by the cuties I see. I swear Makati is giving me varicose veins almost everyday!
And then here we are, the torture chamber, where I force myself to do the step machine for 12 minutes. Damn my sweat is even blinding me and the worst of it all is I even taste it! ewwwwwww
After the gruelling excercise, I hit the shower, change clothes, and blow-dry my hair and off to my monotonous job.
Well the job is not that bad. I do my schedules, my own rules but still I still have to play with shit-rules they imposed on the rest of us. But then again who am I to complain...
A few more minutes before I can go home and be with my one and only love - my bed.
Sleep is such a luxury, wish i can afford to have it all the time. Of course if I have my wish, it can only mean one thing...I AM DEAD.
