The drive from work can be utterly sleepy,
Fighting hard to keep awake,
Finally an evening off to nap today,
but suddenly none for monetary sake.
People sleep in during the weekends,
And then off for shopping and brunch,
Mine’s off to tuition, Taekwondo, tuition,
Rushing from class to class.
I just want a day to sleep in,
No need to be awaken by the clock,
When I’m just ready to call it a week,
It’s already Monday morning at 6 o’clock.
At times I feel like I’m going to collapse,
But always the money pushes me,
I really need a day of rest,
for rest, for family and dear Timmy.
I console myself that it will one day end,
and things will be better too (not in the near future, in fact think I'm getting busier next month),
I haven’t even started on my day job woes,
I think I haven’t the energy to.
Ok, so I haven’t found a new job,
Worse, I got sent for a course,
I turn it down, lest I get an offer,
In the process, I pissed my boss.
There’s really been no offer yet,
Think the pay I wanted was too high,
I’m desperate to move especially after I pissed her,
I really gotta get outta here quick, I feel the pressure.
There’s nothing I can but to leave it in God’s hands,
But the thinking is killing and my body’s aching,
Some pays are fine but the job’s shitty,
And do I really wanna do banking?

Well, you are really amazed me. Since we first know each other and until now, I know you as someone who's really hard working and until now we only pak thor in the afternoonn either saturday or sunday after your classes. I'm not complaining but respect and idolize your way of facing life instead. I was wishing that i was as hardworking as you and until now i've been looking for part time jobs as well so that I can do work during weekends the same way as you do.
I know how do you feel especially working days and nights 7 days a week. It has been tiring for you working like this all these times.
I do think you need a day for yourself and your family out of a week. Try to keep either your saturday or sunday off so that you can fill that with yoru family or just having a rest.
Me on the other hand, happy just to have you anytime when you are free. Right now, we go out anytime that we fell like and your weekends itinerary somehow doesnt effect our schedule at all.
Anyway, you are the first person that i've known in my life that works so hard :D :D
Love you darling Sue.
Wait til I get my weekday after work jobs and my UPSR thingy sorted out, then I think I can start to let go the weekend stuffs. Or one of the days. But opportunity is there, why let go? =P Greedy. We'll see, we'll see.. Thanks Timmy, love u too..
