And It's Summertime...

First quarter of the year is almost gone. I suppose it would be another good time to assess goals and targets, reflect on what's been accomplished and what's lacking, and adjust or set new targets and goals. But admittedly, my mind wants to take a long break LOL! You see, it's summertime where I am. This time of the year, students are enjoying their summer break! That means less income for me in terms of my tutorial income.On the other hand, I still have my online income opportunities.. so I still can't totally take a break! :P Still I can't help but dream of this...


I'm not much of a beach bum, nor am I too fond of staying out in the sun for so long.. but I can't help but think of the beach when it's summertime... ahhh, I hope next time around, I would be doing more than dream of it... ^_^ For now, I gotta get back to work! Enjoy your weekend! Remember to take out and spend some quality time with the important people in your lives! Till next blogging time... ta-tah! :D

Bum No More

Date : 1863

Although I technically do not count myself in as a bum, I did work more on a freelance basis for the past two years. It's not something a lot of people would find financially satisfying, but it was quite relaxing and stress-free for me. I welcomed staying up late at night and waking up late in the morning. Well, what could I say? It had its perks. Since I'm not an outdoor person wither, my time was mostly spent net surfing or cable tv watching. I got good on playing games on facebook and got to watch practically all the good late night shows on cable. LOL ^_^ Like I said, it wasn't without perks. Ahhh but then necessity beckons, and it's summer break.. without a back-up plan and without the extra income, life sometimes sucks! So just this week, I started out working fulltime again. It sure would be something new for me. I have not really done office work in a long time. I do welcome the challenges. Plus, it's too early to tell how things will turn out. For the meantime, I intend to learn as much as I can and enjoy every time spent at the office. Now I can't wait till payday! LOL!!! :D
