Thanks to Mica and Cas, my two wonderful officemates!

updates

If everything goes as planned I should get my book tomorrow, Wednesday, my time. I'm so excited! Can you tell?

And regarding my current job, I'm not as brave as I think I am, after all. I just resigned. My last day will be on Friday, June 30. It's just so sad because all my expectations, all my pre-conceived ideas about governments offices are true, indeed! And it's all bad, all my bad to worst expectations have been met. So sad, because when I accepted this job I wanted to be proven wrong. And worst of all I was told by a number of people who who have connection in the government that my boss is actually not a good person. I won't tell any details because I'm so afraid for me and my family. I went AWOL last week...I really didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore, I don't want to be associated with him any longer.I've seen enough already.

Book Update



I still don't have Anderson's book yet. It's still not available here. But I might get the book sooner than I expected, two of my officemates are in the US right now, they're there for an official business and they promised to buy the book for me! They'll be back in the office on the 26th of June. Wahoooo!

I couldn't be any happier! Can you see me smile from ear to ear?

Feeling Anderson

What a week it has been! My office work was drowning me not to mention my very, very demanding boss, my kids started school this week, I had so many things to do and not enough time!

For two weeks I couldn't even take a look at Anderson for just a minute. And this week, I felt something I don't want to feel ever again...I wasn't craving for Anderson anymore, I felt numb, was I over him? I tried to listen to his voice in my mind, I tried to imagine him reporting when he was in Sri Lanka, I smiled a bit but I wasn't craving for him. I didn't miss him anymore. So, this is how it felt like not missing him anymore? I thought to myself. Honestly, I didn't like it. I didn't know what happened.

Almost all my workloads are finished already and now I'm back here, blogging and hoping to regain my affection for Anderson. I feel like it won't take too much time...I'm beginning to "feel" him again.

It's not hard to love Anderson, after all he is a beautiful person.

fear factor


I am not a brave person. I don't go out of my way to look for adventure or a challenge, as much as possible I want things the way they are, I hate changes...but it is inevitable, I know.

I've been working in my new office for almost two months now, I'm working a government office. My new boss, he's the governor of some province in Luzon. He's a very scary person not because he's ugly or anything but because he commands respect, he shows who is master when he's around. A lot of people are scared of him, myself included. He talks very loudly, he curses, he has a very, very short temper, he wants everything done in an instant, which we all know is impossible. He doesn't listen to explanations, he's always right, he looks for flaws in everything. Just his mere presence make anyone in the office shiver with fear, sometimes I want to run home and not comeback in the office but I can't. Last Wednesday, he was shouting and cursing, he's usual, but he did something else that shocked and rocked me to my core, he hit his photographer... four times! Papers were flying up in the air, he threw it all because he couldn't find the picture of his son. His son! Not something related to goverment business, not something that could possibly make the world a better place but a picture of his son! When his photographer picked up the papers from the ground he took the papers from him and hit him with it while cursing him! He did it four times.

All of my bad experiences from the private companies that I've worked for before are nothing compared to what I've seen and heard here. I've heard of bosses screaming ang cursing before but none of them hit their employees. I don't even know how to even begin to describe him.

Everytime I'm in the office I feel like I'm waiting for a heart attack to happen. I can't breath and move when he's around. I fucking fear the guy but I can't leave, I want to conquer my fear. It sounds stupid, I know but I want to see his other side. I want to know if he has a good side.

Again, I am not a brave person, I don't go out of my way to look for challenges but when I find myself in the middle of it, I tend to stand my ground. I won't leave just yet...
