what's with friday the 13th?

I don’t know why I feel a little bit down today..i went out of house feeling unsure of my mood..i was talking earlier to a friend and it appears that he’s throwing far too much emotions at me..so I told him frankly that I am not entertaining those issues at the moment..when he mentioned he’s interested, I laughed and I forgot it’s rude..well, the damage has been done but at least I didn’t beat around the bush and told him straight away not to continue with anything he’s planning..he said he’s ok with being friends with me though it may be a bit awkward for him but I don’t really care..





So, I went to the office early as I wanted to be able to finish some tasks..however, I don’t know what got into me but I really couldn’t get myself to be so motivated to work at the moment..will power issues, darn! Another thing to make the day worse, I left my phone at home..of all the things that I can forget..well, it never really mattered much as I won’t have anyone checking on me in the middle of the night and there’s no one I can check on during my shift..all the people in the outside world are sleeping and I don’t think there’s someone who would like to hear me disturb their peace..


Chris arrived an hour early for his shift and he reminded me that there’s a project that we needed to work on..so we went to Starbucks to brainstorm and it was very productive..we were able to come up with the most complicated incentive program for our department and that’s what I was working on the whole shift, well, some side tasks on the preparation of my last class’ binder audit, thankfully I have my apprentice Queeny who helped me out with those..


I felt soooo drained in the middle of the shift that I was really feeling soooo low already..i went to chris and told him that I’m really sad for no apparent reason..and to my surprise, he’s feeling the same way..haha..well, he’s feeling sad because he doesn’t have alovelife, that’s what he said..he even mentioned that he cried on the bus and can’t seem to move on from the song The Man that can’t be moved..



'Cause if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me

And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be

Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet

And you'd see me waiting for you on the corner of the street

So I'm not moving

I'm not moving



I called Pierre, the IT supervisor at the office for, wait, I don’t recall why he was there, but anyway, he saw that we, chris and I, are feeling a bit low..he asked what would cheer me up and I told him that I need Disney movies, lilo and stitch and beauty and beast and then some hazelnut ice cream..he found it weird and though I might be craving because I’m pregnant..well, that thought is really weird, can’t be possible..anyway, so I few hours later, he went back to my station with three hazelnut ice creams at hand with a card that says “cheer up cai!”..card was soo cute, it has a picture of a chubby kitten with a head dress..i could’ve finished all three ice cream but I shared them instead with chris and niko..and when they asked where It came from, I just gave them the smile..the i-didn’t-do-anyhting-it’s-just-that-I’m-reaally-charming smile and they already knew who bought it for me..so, we ate the ice cream, cheered ourselves for being so dedicated at work and loving it..




While we were on lunch earlier, chris mentioned that his ex texted him asking if he could have his camera and jacket back..i advised him not to give it back but instead give it away to someone else and just say he lost it..but chris wanted to do something else..i wasn’t able to completely figure it out but one thing is for sure, he kept thinking about it for two hours..yeah, chris, I know..


Then we went back to work, happy at the end of the day because despite the task overload, the people around us made it all easy to deal with..we could all find laughter in anything we do and that particular happiness is always shared ith the whole team..and with this thought, i realized that it’s not such a bad day at all..
