Work Mixed With Pleasure

I was so tired yesterday, I started working after my afternoon nap. Nevertheless, I was able to cover much ground such that I am already in my last section prior to the Conclusions and Recommendations.

After this project, client said there's another one coming up. I'm supposed to do the questionnaire already.

So, tomorrow, I shall have finished one report. The other one, I will submit on Tuesday or Wednesday at the latest.

I was pleased to see my balikbayan friend today. He dropped by to get the book that I forgot to give him last time we saw each other. We were able to chat some more. He might be back end of this year or some time next year. Yehey.

Ohhh, How My Back Aches!

I've been working on my report for hours for days already. How my back aches!

The good news is that I'm about halfway done in one report. The bad news is I have another report due also on Monday. I might ask for an extension.

On Wednesday, I have an important client meeting. Hope it goes well.

My friend texted me a while ago. She was inviting me for dinner. Too bad. Wrong timing.

Presentation Time, Another Report

I woke up early so as not to be late for my 8 am presentation. But my friend was late in fetching me. She came all the way from Taguig and got caught in traffic. It was also rush hour going to Makati. So we were more than an hour late (we felt so ashamed and apologized to the Client who was there at 7:30 am!)

It's a good thing the presentation went well. I wasn't nervous at all even in the beginning.

The clients were very receptive to the information being presented. The presentation ended 10:20 am.

We have a new project with them - this time, an FGD (focus group discussion) consisting of four groups. Praise God!

My friend then treated me to lunch. We ate at Binalutan - I had inihaw na baboy. I wanted dessert so I ate halo-halo at Razon's. My friend also bought me chicharon which turned out spicy (I shared some to the taxi driver). I was given money for taxi fare.

Mom ate some chicharon.

We both took our afternoon nap.

I resumed working on my other report which is due Monday. So, I shall concentrate on report-writing for the next few days.

I was supposed to give my book to my Balikbayan friend yesterday but I forgot. Hope he finds time to get it from me so I'll see him one last time before he gets back to the US.

Report-Writing

It's report-writing time again! I wrote a report yesterday. And another one today. There are several more coming from the same Client. Yehey!

It is great to be able to analyze data right at home in front of your own computer. I can stop and rest and go to the bathroom, take a bath, take a snack, nap, etc. As long as I meet my deadline, no prob.

The battery of my programmable calculator needed replacing so mom bought me a new battery for P150. A bigger problem was inputting the program for the t-test. I had to refer to the brochure to figure out how to do it. After several attempts, I did it! Success!

Small victories in a single day. What joy!

Holy Mass and Work

Today, I attended first Friday mass. It's great to be able to go to mass and not just rely on TV or the internet all the time.

I worked on a report. It's a long report so I am far from done with it. But I am eager to do it because I have been "vacant" for quite some time already.

Looks like I will be working till later this evening. That's okay because tomorrow, finally, is pottery and poetry day! Yehey!
