do you feel lucky punk?

I think I've been pretty lucky lately. For someone who doesn't believe in it, that would be wierd right? I even had this strong feeling in my bones that I would win that 1,000,000 bucks raffle draw. I actually got four correct symbols and need just one more card - but nada. It's ok...there are still a few days left.

There has been so much good news lately, I couldn't help but squeal about it to jabe last night over the phone. After a long day of setting up the media christmas party, then a long evening of the party proper, I SHOULD have been passed out in bed. But I was still giddy, as I have been for the past several days.

First, I was deeelighted with my christmas bonus - a symbol of appreciation from my boss on my hard work this past year. Second, I found out I'm going to Kota Kinabalu on January for the Asian Kick-Off Conference. Again, i'll be with all the corporate bigwigs along with my other counterparts from other countries. But hey, it has apparently been called "paradise" so here's to finding a great bathing suit in the middle of the christmas season and then making sure I have the body to fit it. If my flight is via Singapore, then I will ask for an extra few days to be with frances and raffy. I missed the AIM reunion though for reasons I will not divulge but still managed to hang out with my office buds. Another night I spent catching up with the Dom-ster who gave me my brand new Western Digital hard drive - birthday gift from JB. I guess that man knows exactly what makes me tick.

Tomorrow is our office christmas party and everyone is either hot or cold about it. Others are going all out with their belly dancing gear since the theme is Arabian Nights. I'm just going to be with Nic and Ash to set up early and then pamper ourselves before the event. If only a dip in the pool was possible. But will reserve that for next time.

The stress has been unbelievable for lots. With the closing of books, impossible sales targets for only half a month, and lots and lots of paperwork to finish. Not to mention all the parties! geez. Have one tomorrow, two on thursday, sleep through the weekend, another thingy next wednesday and a birthday on the 22nd. And then I have friends coming in on the 20th and 21st. when am i supposed to wrap the gifts??

ok, i should get to bed since have an early appointment tomorrow before the company christmas party. happy holidays!
