Lowlights

From the looks of it, today was going to be like the others: slow and boring — unless some unexpected work pops up. And they did!

Deb came in (I could hear her sandals flip-flopping) with a revised brochure for a client. As soon as I was done with it, Jen, an account coordinator, called my attention to proof her client’s mailer.

I wished it was like this everyday so that the company continues to find me useful and not lay me off, which is still one of my greatest fears.

My lowlight of the day: I lost the silver bracelet my elder brother gave me when he was in India working as an animator. Its clasp was loose, so I guess it slipped from my right arm. It was a send-off gift when I went to the Philippines for Christmas.

Another lowlight: I broke the left arm of my action figure displayed on top of my computer monitor. I was so bored that I tried to tinker with it. The said arm was stuck and I forced it to move. It snapped.
