More doing, Less complaining

It's been two weeks since I started work at Aidea, and I'm actually liking it. :) The people are awesome, the place is nice and clean, and my workstation has a lovely view of the city! The environment is more fast-paced than what I was used to; Since my 1st week, I had 5 overtimes (including last Saturday), but funnily enough, I'm enjoying it. I like the thought of being part of a competitive group of people that aims to be the best. I'm also more productive, and content*. Maybe I'm really more for a corporate/office type of environment?

Anyhow, I've decided to follow a few resolutions for this semi-new phase in my life:

1. More doing, Less complaining.
It's okay to complain about stuff for a few times, but if it keeps on repeating, just do something to lessen or remove the source of irritation. For example: noisy officemate? plug in your earphones; Everybody goes through shit with their work, so just deal with it.

2. Exercise at least once a week (if there's an upcoming deadline), twice (if malayo pa).
I pretty much sit around the office the whole day, so I do my best to exercise on weekends. That, plus everyday 30 minute walks from my office to Fort bus terminal.

3. Eat meat only once a week, fruits only during merienda.
Sadly, I haven't done this the past 2 weeks. :( I just did my groceries though, so sana masimulan this week!

4. Socialize more.
Being the introverted person that I am, I tend to shy away when there are big groups of people, so I usually talk to 1 person at a time. Thankfully, my friend Val (who is the opposite of shy), also works at Aidea, kaya the new work transition phase is bearable. :)

5. Have a creative outlet.
I'm currently designing logos, and other graphic shiznit! Oh, and I changed my blog logo/header. I realized that the first one was too girly for me.


That's it. Hopefully, things will go smoothly from now on.
