more than i can chew...

I mentioned yesterday about a new job I was going to do today. I started this afternoon and it was then that I realized how huge the task was going to be. I doubt if I can finish this by June 15, as I had promised.

My right eye has been acting up again and so I cannot work for too long at the computer. I need to rest my eyes because my vision is getting blurry. I am wearing prescription glasses for my right eye. My left eye can see clearly but my right eye cannot even see the eye chart quite clearly. I often fail in eye examinations.

Last night before I slept, I was plotting out how to attack the work today but I just got overwhelmed. So I stopped and wrote this entry instead. I am hoping to make progress tomorrow but I am going to travel with the bf. Hahaha! However, if you recall, I work well with deadlines so I am going to have to cram it and finish it all within that date. Besides, I already gave my rate and they accepted it. And yes, I gave the rate I was thinking of. It was actually short by P5,000 and only because my high school classmate is part of their organization and it's non-profit by the way.

new work

Last Sunday, my high school classmate called me up for a new job. It's just a part time job that is needed right away. However, it is quite challenging and will take up a lot of my time.

We met yesterday afternoon and I have decided to accept the job. I got the necessary paperwork and I will begin to work tomorrow. I still need to print some documents and research a bit before I start. I have also decided to take time off from my article writing job to focus on this.

I have yet to set my fee and I am planning to collect a substantial amount. Hahaha! This is because it is very complicated and is good for two years. I'll probably have crossed eyes by the time I finish this. But still it's good because it'll give me a chance to practice my profession again.
