Exhausted.

For the past week, I have been experiencing extreme exhaustion from school and my internship. I am in school for 4 days, and 2 days on my internship. I only have a day to rest, and not really rest, because that’s when I do my chores. I am totally exhausted. I can’t even face my blog anymore. Plus, my DSL connection is not working. I am currently blogging in an internet shop at school. It’s not comfortable blogging outside my house. It feels like someone’s looking over my shoulder, sort of like Big Brother.

I am actually more exhausted on my internship. Our boss is French, and most of the time he talks fast, and in circles. I mean, he appointed me as the head of the interns, which is not a good thing, since I am only there twice a week. He wants me to report to him what they are doing, and relay orders. I am in a great pressure, since I can feel that he is a perfectionist.

I want to be doing what I love to do. What worries me the most is that they are planning to hire me after the internship, but not as a graphics designer or a web developer, they want me to be in marketing! Wtf?! I hate sales. I don’t like convincing people that they have to buy something. Besides, I don’t have a marketing background. They should hire someone with a degree in marketing. I know that I have skills and I am confident that I can do them well, but with regards to marketing, I am not confident about that, and I can foresee myself being fried to my ass constantly if they go ahead and stuff me under marketing. As of now, they have no one in there, so it is like they are desperate. But I am NOT desperate to work with them as their marketing analyst. I hate the thought.

I know that in this day and age, most of the people who graduate never get to use the skills they acquired at school, but I want to be one of the lucky ones who get to do it. I know that there are other job opportunities out there. In 3 months time, I will be done with school, and I can’t wait to start another chapter in my life.

The highlight of my week is when Ryan took me to see Enchanted yesterday. It was a fun movie to watch. Left me happy butterflies in my stomach.

Getting Organized

I was tagged by Pao to do this meme, and post my organizer/planner. Well, this is my super old organizer. I’ve had it since the year 2000. What I like about this is that I can add/remove the calendars. I can buy new leaves for it, so I don’t have to buy more organizers. I keep the insides in my organizer box of papers. If you’ve noticed, the front has Winnie The Pooh pictures on it, mostly of Piglet, because Piglet used to be my favorite cartoon character. I usually use my organizer for my website plans, keeping my friend’s contact information, adding notes, snippets of poems that I never finish, and doodles.

planner
I am tagging: Scart, Nina, and Xyla

  1. Show us your planner/organizer by creating a short video clip sharing with us its features that you like. If a video clip isn’t possible, you can take a snapshot of it as well.
  2. Post the video clip(you don’t have to speak in the clip if you don’t want to hehe) or image in your blog and share what you like and love about your planner. You can also include how you found that planner or why you started using it in organizing your schedules and plans.
  3. Tag your friends and ask them to show you their very own planners, and tell their own story.
  4. Add your name to the list of those who participated in the tag with a link pointing directly to your own Getting 2008 Organized post.

hi dre, nakuh wag ka talaga papayag dun sa offer mas magaling ka sa graphics design / web development, alam ko may makukuha kang job na related sa course mo basta wag ka lang magmamadaling magkawork at basta na lng pasok ng pasok. basta sundin mo yung course mo, agree ako sau.
