All the best for 2008!

If my recently submitted chapter is any indication of good things that await me in 2008, then I am not complaining. Truth is, I am back in front of my computer yesterday -- the first day of the year -- working on my next chapter. Haven't got much time to spare, you see. In fact, I cannot afford to squander my time [anymore]. I have a year and a half to finish everything. Whoa! Whoever said that 'life sucks' must have been a PhD student. Arrrggghhhh. WTF! My first entry for the year and I am complaining already?! Not good.

I called my boss at BLEEP BLEEP (removed upon request)
today and it turns out I have work tomorrow. What bliss. Not! Lol. Anyhoo, can't complain really. I have to remind myself that my pay in that work pays for my rent. Not bad, really. Considering my job there does not involve an iota of cerebral work. Sweet. Let me end this bunch of nonsense with all the best wishes for 2008!

Post-script:
I find it really amusing that I was called in today to my boss' office, to be told to remove the name of the company from my blog. Heck, I don't even know what for. The lawyer in me and the student activist that I was would have cried foul or simply ignored the request. Hey, there is such a thing as freedom of speech which is a guaranteed right in international law. Oh well. At least, I am glad someone's reading this blog.
