Night Shift Samba

Well, tonight's the start of my cross-skill training for Customer Service. I should be asleep right now, but as hard as I'd tried this afternoon I my body seemed to have shrugged off my efforts as a extra-long siesta.  Ah well, sleep schedule adjustment was always hard, so I guess I'll just have to accept …

Taking Samples

Another weekend, another personal Pixiv art project.  After scanning some pictures for my father, I was able to scan the little sketch I did this morning after we got back from Church (it was an important mass, as it was the last mass our trio of parish priests were to oversee before they were transferred …

School of Hard Knocks

Well another school day, another workshop session finished.  This time around our guest panelist was a doctor from the University of the Philippines, and the mentor of our professor.  She has an interesting take on critiquing, to say the least,  with ideas about 'respecting' your characters (a whore may be a whore, but no, you …

Pitfalls of Attention

In hindsight, staying up early in the morning to catch the live stream of Madoka Magica episode 08 pretty much threw the proverbial monkey wrench in my plans for today.  As of this writing, I have yet to finish reading my classmates' stories, and haven't even begun on the usual weekly mini-critique for submission tomorrow.  …

Change In Plans

Apparently I'm one of those up for cross-training next week, so I'm going to have a slight change in schedule for the duration.  From Monday to Friday I'll go to work at eleven in the evening, and stay at the office for a full eight hours each day for the duration of the training period.  …

Harping

Well, here it is.  I though I'd only be able to finish this by the tenth episode of Madoka, but somehow even after some last-minute clean-up and effects via Photoshop I managed to get it done a day before episode 8 even airs.  It's not as polished as I'd have liked, but given my level …

Unexpected

Of the normal morning part-time crew, it seems like I'm the only one who isn't doing overtime.  Everyone else seem to be doing some sort of extra time, because of the mind-bogglingly sudden decision of the company to try keeping people on the floor for as long as humanly possible.  It's crazy, especially when I …

One After The Other

It's a little worrying to think that, had some of my co-workers not come in for overtime this morning, I would have been left alone to fend for myself on the floor.  I understand that the cross-skill training period is supposed to last until the end of this week, but given the fact that we …

Little Suprises

Although I expected that it was going to be another frustrating Sunday, it was alleviated by the fact that four of the part-time batch I was part of just happened to come in to do some overtime.  It was just as well, as the two fellows who were supposed to share the shift with me …

Breaking Habits

I've decided to go to bed early tonight, instead of staying up to continue on coloring my Pixiv project. The reason is simple: I'm tired, and I risk making a major screw-up due to fatigue.  So, without fanfare, I'm not going to post anything thoughtful tonight, except perhaps to wish everyone a pleasant evening.
