Serendipity?

Why is it that when I find myself looking forward to going on holiday, I end up suddenly loaded with deadlines?

As planned, I'm going to Zambales this weekend to relax and bake under the sun with Au. As in I'm really psyched about it because I'm just loving the fact that my goal to hit as many places as possible this year is actually coming along well. Moving.

And then the deadlines show up. I have THREE.

Of all the days my sideline racket assigns another article (haven't heard from them in almost two weeks since the last submission), they have to do it today. As in I have five days to finish it. Article is due on Thursday.

And then I found myself taking on another project. A PR project for a shoe brand. It includes writing an article and doing press rounds (I asked Ai to do press rounds in my stead--we're splitting the fee) and the article is due on Wednesday. It was supposed to be Tuesday but I just had to beg off and ask for an extension. I don't come back from Zambales til Monday so it would really suck if I have an article to write the moment I get back from my trip. Welcome back bitch! Haha

Anyway, I have to at least have a rough draft of the PR article by tomorrow night. I'll fine tune it on Tuesday and submit on Wednesday. The Automated Testing Tool article, on the other hand, will have to wait until Wednesday night. But I need to at least print out background materials to take with me. Oh God, I'll be reading about regression tests at the beach! Huhu.

Oh well. I asked for this. I told myself at the beginning of the year that I want rackets. Multiple income streams. And now I have it. And they pay really good money--the PR racket, for one, will be paying me almost a whole month's salary's worth. I'll be damned if I don't do it! And the ATT article will give me a couple more thousand bucks worth. I'm actually earning really good money here!

Wow. I so did not realize that until today. What I asked for I am actually getting. Freaky...but good freaky. So I love it! hehehe

Back to work now. Have a great long weekend!
