How to Waste Life...

*drumroll...*

One of the best ways to waste time is what I just spent 2.5 hours of my life on this morning... Attending a "work-related" presentation! It was to be presented by TCM and when I asked, I was told that the presentation (training for the newbies) was a brief overview (of one of the tasks that I'm already involved in) and supposedly some updates are being presented as well. Hence, it may be beneficial to sit in... I wouldn't even call it investing my time, really, although partially the reason I spent the time that I didn't have was because it was supposed to have some updates which were "work-related"...

Frustratingly, I found out later that the presentation included the history and anecdotes of "Life as TCM" and there weren't any updates that I wasn't already aware of... I just wasted away 2.5 hours of my life, which would've amounted to more had I not left a bit earlier to look for HOD. Sadly, HOD was nowhere to be found... And, for obvious reasons, I did not return to the meeting room for the rest of the presentation... On top of that, along the course of the presentation, TCM also seemed to have hinted for more tasks to be added on to my already back-breaking workload... How not to be frustrated?!!

Now, I've got 2.5 hours less to work on the priority task I've been rushing... Just got back from lunch and a bit of shopping, but still frus... grrr... Okay, better get back to work liao lar... Totally ditched another presentation that has just started cos I'd need to work on that priority case...

Sooo need to de-stress... Anyone got any good de-stressing tips???

Erm... sure... a holiday to KT sounds somewhat relaxing... I'll leave the stress of playing tour guide to you, okay? See... being supportive and giving you something to stress about... *grinz* =P
