First working day in 2008

I’m at work and impatiently counting down the last fourteen minutes until I can head home. I’ve spent the day preparing my performance review which will be done tomorrow at 11.00am. Apart from that, the office has been very quiet – most of my colleagues are still enjoying their break.

Having two long weekends did wonder to my psyche, but the lingering uncertainty at work does sap the happy mood very quickly. I can’t wait to head back to Indonesia in a fortnight’s time, just to relax with my family and pig out on homecooked food again. Besides, the trip to Indonesia would also provide a sense of closure to an era and the beginning of the next one.

Well, tomorrow will be a payday so I can buy more souvenirs to bring ‘home’ and pay my bills. 🙁

Nine more minutes and counting down …
