Passion
Sometimes designing can be a pain in the arse. Just ask me.
This is especially so when you have 3 freaking magazines to handle. 2 are abt 100pp each, the other 50+pp. And when your freaking assitant takes a day just to do 2pgs max. How the hell are we goin to deliver on time? And when I say to finish 2 pgs, I say 2 'incomplete' ones that I have to snag along doin up changes and stuff. He's a freaking snob. Suffice to say he used to 'take care' of 4-5 designers at a go last time. Stop bullshitting for crying out loud. You can't even handle this dumb mag.
So the question is: Where do we draw the line? We all have a job to do. And that I'm doin 2mags and he 1. After 2 weeks struggling with the look, *Medusa gave up. I had to step in. His confidence drop dramatically. Idiot. With 10yrs of experience in this field, this was probably his worst. But that's only my presumption. He may just be a lazyfuck for all i know. The more i think, the more I cringed opening up psds in the mornings and start revamping it. Its like doin 3 mags now. Tt's no joke. Just ask any good designers and you'll know wad I mean. I'm goin insane! i'm also trying to keep myself calm at times when *Medusa starts pinpointing tt that pg sux. We all have to defend 'our' designs sometimes.
Like wad happened today. I believe designers shld always 'protect' each other in times of frustration by not pushing the blame...for this instance, on me! I think by doin this not only dis-rekindle wadever relationship you may have with ur collegue. It'll also shows ur childishness and unprofessionalism. I think the best solution is to just listen and shut the fuck up. After *Medusa's done with her ramblings, then go scream ur head at him. I failed doin that. He left for home soon after. I will fuck him tmrw.
Sometimes being helpful lead to many uncertainties. When you tink you're doin a good deed for him, he may turn the tables on you. Bastards like these do exits even in a small company. I wonder if i ever land a job in a bigger company, will it be like that? Or will it be so stringent that everybody just shuts the fuck up and do a good job - a job tt was assigned to you from the beginning? What landed you this job is your specialty. He has none. No foundation. Nothing.
Show passion my friends. It'll bring you more satisfaction in wadever you do. Even sex. 'Nuff said.

A good balance will do."

Platonic Relationship and Stuff that Matters
Now, the last time i heard this bad word was from my ex-gf many years ago. Using this dirty word to describe her male college's relationship - 'It was just a
platonic relationship.' Oh hell yea right! In time to come, this platonic relationship had developed into something else. They got together. I guess mine wasn't long enough.
Whoever invented this word, I have to give you the finger 'cos i don't believe it at all. For me it's either a yes or a no. Yes we go into a relationship, no we juz remain friends or worst off never contact each other again 'cos by doin that, u gather feelings for each other again and it's never ending. It just goes round and round. So the question is, should I be seeing her again. I got all the vibes last Saturday when we went out for drinks. I couldn't remember the last time I had a good night, with solid conversation and everything. A little touchy here and there. Fuck, we even held hands. Only the kiss was missing. I only got it on sms before I went to bed. Does that count? I feel like I gotta take some action soon 'cos I still do not know if she's still with that 40+yr old boyfriend of hers. She could be his daugther for all I know. LoL!
She didn't directly said she's treating this as a platonic relationship but eh dun bluff me. You just couldn't get upfront with me cos you're afraid i may get hurt, jump off a building, commit suicide or scream or something like that. C'mon man what was that all about the previous night? A show? Something you seek to be comforted cos ur guy didn't? Because of some quarrel or misunderstanding? Feeling unloved by him? Using me as a one night substitute? Because I was too irresistible that night? Was the night so surreal to you as you said? Or you want me as your part-time boyfriend? Goodness. Where did that come from? Shit.
We didn't finished our conversation. So I can't tell you more. And I also dunno wad's gonna happened. We even planned going Phi Phi. Everything was just goin too fast. It's like a movie. We even planned to get a matching tattoo done. What the hell is happening? I guess it's game on. Shan't contact you till wednesday. We'll see what happends. We'll see.
But i'll always believe platonic love is platonic bullshit.
But then.... hey i gain 1KG! Hooray!
p/s: I gotta get back to my winning ways. From my hair to my feet. 'Cos Gorillaz told me to feel good. Ahahahahaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.............
