Orange Sky

R. Liam at work and at home

When I write Yaoi fanfiction in the office:

When I'm at work, I sometimes write during breaks. :) Hoho... can't let all the brain cells work on project plans all day, ne?

As you can see here in the picture, that is my workstation. It's got Gamakichi on the desk calendar, pictures of friends, a list of the local numbers in the office and some Naruto action figures (yeah, I still collect them... kid at heart really XD ). I have two office thinkpads (from the company) and a PC (also from the company - Japanese companies are really generous I tell you.).

I also have a starbucks cup here, desk calendar number 2, a small photoframe (which can hold several different pictures), a tissue box... and other items used for emergency purposes. :D

But I rarely get the time to write while at work, because of course, when I'm at work, I have to give the impression that I'm "working". XD Nah, seriously, I can't find time to write sometimes because 9 hours in the office is never enough for work alone. You might not believe this, but I sometimes go to work at 8:30 in the morning and go home at 9 PM. (and I'm one of those who go home early in our office) -_- ugh. But that's when we encounter issues and do cramming of work.


When I do my writing at home:

When I arrive home, my usual routine is to eat dinner, watch some TV, talk with my sister (yeah, she kinda lives with me), do a little laundry sometimes or sometimes clean my room, then sit down in the living room and WRITE! OH YEAH!

I write fics at home using my laptop (this one on the right) while hugging this cute stuffed dolphin. :D Hehhe.

When it's Friday, I'm most likely downloading the latest Naruto episodes or manga. Hehe. But most of the time, on Friday nights and the whole day of Saturday, I go out with my boyfriend (i miss him already) and some of my friends.

Hanging out with them gets me really exhausted, but I certainly enjoy it. :D The exhaustion is always worth it. :) At the end of Saturday, usually I would go home and won't be able to summon any energy to even change clothes. But the feeling you get the next day kinda sucks, so I try to change before going to bed ... I TRY. hehe.


When I'm not writing or working:

I SHOP!!! MWAHAHA! I practice my nihongo, hang out with my friends, watch CSI, anime or more Discovery Channel and NGC specials (hey! I love educational channels!) .

Sometimes, I head out to the bay (we live near it :) ) and take nice pictures of the sunset.

Like this picture here on the right. This was just taken this year. :) heheh. After taking pictures, I SHOP AGAIN! Mwahahha! There's a big mall near that bay (how convenient!) you see. :D


Where I am currently:

I am having my 3 weeks off (paid, of course) from work. My sister, mom and I have gone to NJ to see our dad. :D Yey! It has been quite a few years since I last saw him (we talk through chat though hehehe).

I shall be going back home on the 23rd of April and *sigh* back to work. :( At least I get to see my 彼 and some of my friends. :) heheh.

But while I'm here, I shall be enjoying it for the mean time. :) Wheee! and oh my god!! It's so cold! I easily get cold!! Waa! Wasn't used to cold weather, back home... the normal temperature there is 77degrees F +. O__O When I got here it was below 35F. (uwaa!)

Ne, omoshiroi ne? :D hehehe.
