Still alive...


I really had nothing much to report lately. I have been quite occupied with a lot of stuffs for the last few weeks so much so it wore me down and I was down with cold for the entire week. Still sniffling and feeling run down as I am writing this post. Mind you, this is only the start of that damn winter season in NZ and I hope I can cope with the extreme wetness and low temperature.

Just exactly what I have been busying about? Frankly, I have no inkling at all. All I know is despite the fact I tried to scale down my daily working hours to 8 hours per day, I am still busy zip zapping here and there to get things done. Somehow I just have never have enough time to do a lot of things.

The toxic waste dump (affectionately known as work place) is still the same, in fact it is more toxic than ever due to the extreme cost cutting measures. But I got so tired with the constant drama and basically just shut them out. I need to move on. Even though physically I am still here, I have already move on with my inner self. Seriously, nothing matters to me any more with the place. Should they decided to close down the whole place tomorrow, I am fine with that. Actually I wish it will close down sooner because it will be good riddance.

I am in the process of inching my way out of the closet and I am making some progress. Lately, I confided to a lady friend in one of those long conversations about life and everything. It turns out she suspected all along and she was cool about that and very supportive. Which is a huge relief for me. Of course, there is still a long way to step out of the closet door, but I will keep soldier on.

You'll find that there's nothing to fear outside the closet. But a step is a step... I'm proud of you. :)

Want to second Nasser's remark. And maybe cultivating indifference to the downsides of work isn't such a bad defensive move for the time being. Hope all goes well.
