Pulling Hair

7:54AM
I woke up feeling sugar high this morning; happy and in a very good mood, not my usual grouchy bastard self. I even managed to sing along while I listened to Indie Music. In fact, I even did some ironing this morning. Man, I must have been in a very good mood. The Villain wielding an iron = a once in a blue moon thing. (But you shouldn't judge me for I am an expert in hammers, pliers and screwdrivers, the only reason why my gfs treat me with respect and look-up to me with reverence, but that's another story.)

There was a cab waiting outside my door when I headed out of my crib. How lucky is that? The driver even left me alone to munch my Snicker Bar in peace. :) I even managed to catch the eye of some crazy cab driver on my left who kept winking and waving at me. I thought it was a little funny, especially the way he tried to get my attention and the way he trailed after the cab I was riding. Shit, another psycho! I seem to be a psycho, mentally deranged MAGNET. Is it because opposites attract, or is it a case of birds with the same feathers flock together? (I have a secret and I am not telling. No, he's no psycho. Thank goodness!)

So I got to work half an hour before I'm supposed to start teaching; plenty of time to do some fiddling, twiddling and tweaking. I needed to print my lesson plans, but started cussing non-stop when I found out that some files couldn't be printed because I saved it on Excel Vista (in my notebook) and we're only using Excel 2003 (at work) or something like that. Hell, who knows! All I know is that I'm in a raged right now and Bill Gates is lucky that he's not within reaching distance. If he was around I cannot promise to retract my claws and fangs. Warning!!!! The Villain does bite!

10:30AM
I just taught two periods, but I nearly had a stroke before the class even finished. There were no seats for half of the students in my class and there was nowhere else to put them. Holy Shit! This is madness in its severe form. To make matters worst, someone decided to change the time table and my team is about to start a riot. Noone is happy! Hell, I'm unhappy as my team, but I keep my mouth shut because I'm suppose to be the leader. The students don't know which class to go to and we're still waiting for the new 'time table' print outs. I am on the edge!

3:30PM
It's finally time to go home. Had a verbal tussle with a team member (earlier), but I decided to let it go because everyone had a long hard day, including myself (and her). On second thoughts, I should have bitch-slap her (Bite me if you don't like that statment), but that wouldn't have been appropriate, so I'm glad I suffered in silence. Well, time to pack some work (books), loads of it actually (for good measure). It is time for me to leave work and go home (to start working). How ironic!

Well, sounds like it started well at least. Hopefully the day got better for you in the afternoon. Seems kinda of silly to change everything all of a sudden. Then not even have enough room for the students to learn in. HMmmmmm so you have secret, huh? Mystery fills the air. ;) Have a great day and night. Maybe that tension can melt away tonight.

My day never got better. Today was my worst day ever! Sucks!

There is hope. I still have a reason to smile. (I have a secret.)

There are a lot of things that can cure tension and stress. Your comment is one of them. :P (My secret is another reason. :_) And there are more than I can think of.
