My semi blotched weekend plans

I had a fairly simple plan for the long weekend in 2006 - read, sleep and exercise... Somehow or other, as is often the case, I did not really achieve these simple goals.

Sleep

Firday night started with just one drink and plenty of chicken wings at The Loof... and then a friend dropped by... and next thing I knew, I was at KBox (yes, again!) and we sat there mostly watching MTVs till three in the morning. So much for sleep.

New Year's Eve... countdown cum anniversary celebration with ze parents... and was off to bed early (kind of anyway)... but what do you know, thanks to our excellent network providers, I had well wishes from friends coming in all the way till 4am in the morning! No thanks to my intelligent phone, which will not stop reminding you that you have an unread message (I still cannot figure out why the designers thought that it is such an important feature), I tossed and turned some, finally switched my phone off... fell asleep, only to be woken up a couple of hours later as my maid had accidentally set off the house alarm.

Exercise

Did anyone even take a look at the weather over this weekend? It was sporadic rain the entire long weekend... Everytime I packed my bag to go for a swim, the rain would fall again... Of course, as usual, today's weather looks all clear and sunny. I really need to just stop working... for a month!

Read

That I did do... finished an entire book from start to end yesterday... gosh, what a sense of accomplishment!

All in, actually thought that I felt quite relaxed and able to battle the day ahead... but guess what, all my "positive" feelings disappeared the moment I saw the email from my boss... what is her problem? Sighs... Or maybe it's just me... need to understand how to work here.
