Sleepy in the Office: What to do?

zzZZZzzz…ZzzzzZZZ, yawning frequently,  wishing for the time to get out in the office and thinking of other things to do just to fight the urge to sleep are the signs and symptoms that you don’t have enough sleep last night.  Yeah, been always in this kind of situation wherein I usually yawn and got a sleepy eyes when the clock strikes to 2:00pm.  I always have a sleepy and boring day in the office and because of this illness that I have, I already master the art on how to stay awake in front of your boss’ table.  Here are some tips that work out for me to avoid drowsy/dozy and slumberous syndrome:

1. Play online games or social networking applications- this is among the sure fire way to keep your eyes wide open and at the same time entertain yourself.  However, do this in a discreet manner and restrain yourself in showing excitement or any kind of emotions that will signify that you are doing something else. LOL

2. Do facebook, myspace, friendster or any social networking sites- update yourself with the latest happenings of your friends, relatives, ex boyfriends, girlfriends, hubbies or families and do post a comment to any interesting status or issues.  Comment posting is a fun way to make yourself awake in this broad daylight or sleepy nights (if you are on a night shift).

3. Watch a video- been itching to watch the latest action flick or that coolest MTV in town? Then, take a halt even for a few minutes and check out you favorite videos through Youtube or any sites that streams free MTV or movie videos.   As you do this, again be discreet and avoid unnecessary expression.  If you can’t help but laugh or cry hide your face near the monitor or secretly go the bathroom and release your kept emotions. LOL

4. Chat and chat- if Yahoo Messenger, MSN or Skype is allowed in your office, then grab the opportunity to chat all day just to kill the time.  However, if your chat conversation is being monitored then thou shall not do this if you do not want to get a memo or a termination notice.

5. Blog- if you got anything in mind and wish to express whatever it is, then write about it.  Just like what am doing.  LOL Suggesting ways on how not to get sleepy in the office.

These are just few of the hundreds of thousands of things to do when you are bored and tired with the same freakin’ task at work.   I master the art of this one because I am always sleepy and bored.LOL

 

When Expectation meets Reality

expectation: n. [ĕk'spĕk-tā'shən]- eager anticipation
reality: n. [rē-ăl'ĭ-tē]- state of being actual or true

Last Saturday night I watched a movie entitled “500 Days of Summer“, a story about boy meets girl in a not-so-ordinary-setting.  As what the narrator said, this is not your typical love story with happy endings, which I couldn’t agree for more.  This movie made me realized some things and ponder some thoughts in finding “the one” & all things about L.O.V.E.

After I watched the flick,  it shed light in my views about destiny, soul mate and all things related to love.  When it comes to soul mate it made me realized that there is really bound for each and everyone of us.  We should not be in a rush to find love because it will just come.  Just learn to be patient and have an open mind and do not just jump into a relationship just for the sake of having one.  I somehow agree in the movie that having someone you share the same wavelengths doesn’t mean he or she is your destined partner.

One of my favorite scenes in the movie was when Tom’s expectation and reality was shown in a split screen.   This is where all his expectations did not turn into reality and all he got were disappointment and heartaches.  I could absolutely relate of what have Tom felt during that day.  I have been there to that kind of situation wherein I expected a lot from that certain person and in the end I was totally wrong and just reading between the lines excessively.  This scene moves me big time! It made me wake up and gather my thoughts to comprehend completely the saying “thou shall not expect too much”.  Yeah, one should not put high expectations towards your apple of the eye as this is where false hopes start to sink in your fantasy world.  And then when expectation does not transform into what should it have to be in the real world, disappointments, heartache and excruciating pain suddenly wrap around your heart.  It is better to hope than to expect to avoid being upset and displeasure-kind-of-mood.  There fore I conclude, one should have the courage to face reality even though it hurts because this is our alarm clock to stop living in the world of fools.   We must face the harsh truth of life even though it will give us a heart-tearing-into-a-million-pieces emotion when expectation turns-out-into-a-total-failure as it meets reality.  But  believe me it will spare you from more hurt and much pains.  It may be easy being said than done but that is how life is! Learn to struggle the awful truth of reality and cherish every lesson you encounter as you journey in the road of life.

 

Stolen Heart?

It has been a week since Handsome Nurse dedicated a song for me. It has been 3 or 4 days now the last time we talked. I guess he is very busy with work and then reviewing to pass for that US Nursing Licensure. I don’t want to disturb him even though I am bug by the itch to drop a “hi” or “hello” line but I can’t because he might not reply which will just make my fragile heart suffers. I am missing him so much and seems like every time I close and open my eyes, thoughts and images of him suddenly pop in my mind.

My gosh! Am I falling in love with this person? I just don’t freakin’ know the answer also. All I know is I miss him and when he told me days before that he misses me too, my heart jumped for joy! It’s like am in seventh heaven. And because of this strange emotions that I am feeling for him, I just hate it. This is not what I like when it comes to this kind of thing. When I like a certain person and when they show signs of reciprocating my feelings, I tend to hope that whenever I needed his presence he will be totally there. I wish that all of his attention will be mine alone. Yeah, that’s how obsessive and possessive I can be. LOL But I ain’t a freaking stalker or to suffocate someone with this sort-of-abnormal-attitude.

Perhaps, he really stole my heart. And I am so stupid to let him stole my heart, in which I don’t know if he is feeling the same way since he did not exactly told me that 1.) he likes me or 2.) we are on the MU stage or 3.) he is falling for me or 4.) he loves or 5.)all possible choices and signs of falling for someone. Argh, it makes my head aches…*sigh

I did not saw this one coming because I did not expect that our “whatever relationship” we have as of this moment will grow into something wonderful and will bloom, oh well that’s how I perceived it. Think I should not think about this more often and guess just savor every moment ’til it last. Hope there will be less heart aches and pain but more love, love and love!

 

Just the Two of Us

I just cannot help but share this one to all of you guys! I did not imagine or dream that on this very specific day, November 24, 2009 that my ever Handsome Nurse will dedicate a song for me.  I do not know if it is 1.) just a joke 2.) riding my out-of-this-world thinking of being a hopeless romantic 3.) he really likes me.  But whatever it is, I am liking the song lyrics it shots directly to my heart and I am loving the feeling it brings to me– the shiver down my spine and the unending giggles of happiness.   Without further a do, here’s the song dedicated to me

Just the Two of Us

by: NSYNC

Oh, hey yeah yeah..
Girl when we started baby we were friends
But that’s not how this fairy tale is gonna end
See I was thinking then it clicked one day
That no one else has ever made me feel this way
The next time I saw you girl I knew I had to try
To tell you everything that I was feeling deep inside
And listen good cause what I say is from my heart
So if you’re ready

You see I toss and turn when I’m alone
And I just cant wait til you get home
Waiting for your call cause tonight we’re gonna do it all
Girl it’s just the two of us
Cause I’m thinking about you day and night
And I just can’t get you off my mind
When you get a minute baby I was thinking we could hook up
It’s just the two of us, the two of us

Cause in a room full of people you’re the only one around
And nothing in this world could ever bring us down
Baby I’ll be there telling you I care
This I swear
Girl its just the two of us, the two of us

Baby I wonder if you feel the same as I do
I wonder if you’re going through the things I’m going through…
I sent you flowers on a Saturday
inside’s a letter with a message and no name
See I just love the feeling, knowing I can make you smile
and I haven’t felt that about someone in quite a while
Just listen to these words I have to say
Just take a chance..

You see I toss and turn when I’m alone
And I just cant wait til you get home
Waiting for your call cause tonight we’re gonna do it all
Girl it’s just the two of us
Cause I’m thinking about you day and night
And I just can’t get you off my mind
When you get a minute baby I was thinking we could hook up
It’s just the two of us, the two of us

Cause in a room full of people you’re the only one around
And nothing in this world could ever bring us down
Baby I’ll be there telling you I care
This I swear
Girl its just the two of us, the two of us

It just gets better with each day (baby someday)
I always wanted to tell you
But I was so afraid

You see I toss and turn when I’m alone
And I just cant wait til you get home
Waiting for your call cause tonight we’re gonna do it all
Girl it’s just the two of us
Cause I’m thinking about you day and night
And I just can’t get you off my mind
When you get a minute baby I was thinking we could hook up
It’s just the two of us, the two of us

Cause in a room full of people you’re the only one around
And nothing in this world could ever bring us down
Baby I’ll be there telling you I care
This I swear
Girl its just the two of us, the two of us
Ohh.. hey yeah yeah..

P.S.

Thanks for sharing this song to me…Gosh, you are making me in love with you! ^____^
