It's been two months since I last wrote. Probably the longest I have ever gone without saying anything here.
I was just doing my normal browsing, watching random movies bit right now. Not working or answering emails for a change (everyone seems to be out of office for a week or so, hence I get the honor of not replying to emails or working this weekend). And then I thought, what did I do earlier in my free time or time when I didn't have work on my mind. I blogged.
Everyone seems to tell me how I have become this unreachable person. Not because I don't answer calls, reply to messages or personal emails, but because they don't know if its a good time.
Really?
It's only been a little over a year since I have been working. I am by means one of those top of the food chain, calling shots executive but it seems like I still come across as the unreachable kinds. Wonder what am I doing wrong?
For instance, one of my closest friend told me some time back, she doesn't call/text me because she doesn't know if I will even answer back. The funny thing there though is, whenever she has tried to get hold of me, I have answered back, even if the answer has been I'll talk to you later.
I think its just me. I need to fix few things about this whole, "she's so busy" persona. So to achieve that, I want to pen down my famous lists (which seem to have become an ancient thing now) and make few changes

- Don't talk about work
- Don't tell people how busy you are (everyone is)
- Don't even tell your work friends what you worked on
- Don't map out the country like it's mapping out a county and act like you know the country when you you don't
- Don't answer emails when with friends
- Don't act like you know it all
- Basically, don't do anything that you do in relation with work
Phew... that was an easy list to make. All I have to do, is not do anything that I do right now in terms of referencing my work life outside of work.
Good.
On a different note, A very merry Christmas everyone. I hope everyone has amazing holidays and Santa brings the best presents to all of you :)
I am hoping to do my annual list of the year that was this time. I will definitely try to get to that this year ( I know I skipped last year).
Till then talk to you all soon!
