slowing down….

from today onwards, you won’t see me blogging everyday as I’ll be very busy.

first of all, I had taken up two ‘moonlighting’ jobs. the first one I blog about it before – a job with a software solutions company, forest software solutions. i had already finished one job for them – a write-up of their website, and is now in process of doing another one – copywriting for their software.

the second job comes from a friend, who had written a book on bridge, the card game. he intend to sell his books via the internet and had amassed thousands and thousands of emails of people from bridge club. he wanted me to send off the promo and order form of his books to all of them. one day i have to send off at least 100. he said i will be paid by the hours.

well, these are the 2 paid jobs i will be busy doing. then i have another 2 voluntary jobs from the church based society, society of st vincent de paul (SSVP) to do.

i mentioned before i was busy planning for the SSVP celebration. well, you see we are celebrating our 70th anniversary, where the conference i belongs to is the first conference in malaysia. therefore we planned a grand celebration with a mass and a dinner, with lucky draw. and we wanted a souvenir magazine too and a raffle draw. we had meetings every month and close to the date, we had meetings every week. you can just imagine all the hard work we had to put in for such a grand celebration, where members from all over the country attended.

well, the mass and dinner was over (on 18 june) but that doesn’t mean the work is over yet. this is because i am the treasurer, and now need to clear up/settle the celebration accounts.

then not forgetting, at another level of the SSVP, where i am the secretary, i need to submit the annual returns to the registrar of societies (ROS). minutes, reports, accounts, list of office bearers and all that.

so you see now, how i will be pretty tied up with work work work. gonna lay off blogging for a while… er… oh no! not completely lay off, of course… i mean blog not so regularly. another thing is i think i ought to sleep early from now on. been sleeping at 2.00am these days (and wakes up at 6.30am) and lately i notice i had been feeling a bit dizzy when i climb up the 4 flight of stairs to my apartment! this is terrible. lots of work to do but have to sleep early… so where got time to do the lots of work and to blog?? (when i have less hours now if sleep early). hmm… i must learn some time management. but time management need discipline and that is one thing i don’t have! oh well…. let’s see.
