self appreciate

How often you give yourself an appreciation after doing something outstanding? Or at least, after you've done a good job? Once in a while? So many times that you almost consider yourself a narcissistic human being? Or perhaps never?

For me, honestly, I never do. But today, I did.

I'm going to tell you about how my day was, and it would probably not in the shortest way. So, if you're still want to read this, then go ahead, stick around for a little longer. 

But, if you are already bored and constantly rolling your eyes, you can press the X button of your browser window. And save your ass for much more important things to read, how to feed the hunger, for example.

If you got this far, I assume that you want to keep going. Okay then. Here we go.

So today is Monday, obvi. A day when everyone keeps throw their curses and blames onto, the most hated day of the week. Me too, hate this day. Sometimes. But today I felt excited to go to the office, merely because I just bought stationery for my table, so it looks decent. Other than that, meh.

Then, I entered the room when suddenly my friend, Lissa from finance (my previous department), approached me and told me that I'll be alone today. At first, I got confused because as far as I know, it was only Vanessa who couldn't come. After all, she had a fever, she sent me a message in the morning. But then, Lissa said Ranz and Kim also on sick leave. And I was like:

"WHAT THE FCK?!"

Literally. Sorry for the language. Thank God I still haven't fasted today, or else I'll break my fasting, and it wasn't even noon yet. That was how much it shocked me. Three out of four members from the Payments-Operation Team were on sick leave, and I was the only one who showed up. If that was not enough, the COO and our Finance Manager were supposed to come today. Yep.

The first thing our team needs to do is making a report. One is in English, which is the one that I've been doing, and the other one is in a complete Chinese character. And there was no Ranz or Kim to do this because they're Chinese speakers, and I am not. Dang. Thank God Vanessa sent me half of this Chinese report from home at least we still had a report to deliver.

Yes, the COO came, but not the Finance Manager. Thank God.

Also, we had this big thing that happened at the last minute of my work schedule. So the COO wanted a meeting regarding this and what our next action would be. Geez. I almost got my way out of a needle hole there. Mission failed.

So he wanted me, and the other three represents from each department to attend this meeting. I was scared. Really. I never attend a meeting where there was no other person from my team. But since I was the only one, it seemed like I didn't have that much option, did I? So, yeah. But before the meeting, I make sure that I can answer his question, by, you know, tried to click here and there, so if ever there was a problem, I could raise it in that meeting, and we could come up with the solution.

And then, finally, I survived this dreadful day without losing any hands or legs! Yeay!!

Then I thought to myself,

"Wow you really survived today ca! Gokil sia. Hari ini banyak banget rintangannya dan lu bisa ngelewatinnya! Congrats! You did a good job today."

And afterward, I felt really good, I felt like it was all paid off. I guess it's okay to give yourself some appreciation every now and then because it gives you a sense of achievement. Sometimes that's all you need after a long and dull day from work.
