Meetings

My god i hate meetings.

Yesterday, i had three. A short one at 9:30 , just to get warmed for the rest of the day. A taxing one from 12:30 to 14:30. And another one from 16:30 to 19:00. I am definite that there are people that spend their whole day in meetings. And i am positive that having a meeting to decide upon schedules, timetables, deadlines are essential to precise management and execution.

But what happens when after 5 hours, the outcome is 0? What gives? Are meetings held, just to be held? Do they help creativity or do they hinder it?



No more, please... let me do my work...

Always look at the bright side of life

I was really touched by this- a swelling caught in my throat, that later moved up to my eyes. Damn. What a send-off. Just thinking of him as King Arthur in Monty Python and the Holy Grail makes me smile and sigh at the same time.

For life is quite absurd,And death's the final word.
You must always face the curtain with a bow!
Forget about your sin -- give the audience a grin,
Enjoy it -- it's the last chance anyhow!

Just before you draw your terminal breath.
Life's a piece of shit,When you look at it.
Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true,
You'll see it's all a show,
Keep 'em laughing as you go.
Just remember that the last laugh is on you!

The Seven Sins


The first draft of my next tattoo is finally in my hands. Thanks to my sister of course- i could not draw that good.

It seems that some corrections must be made. Envy (top right) looks eerily like Mr. Burns (Homer Simpson's boss), Wrath (top left) looks like a gay Cherokee, Gluttony (bottom left) is not... well, he's not eating anything to display his gluttonic nature. Pride, the Fallen Angel at the right is a bit small.

Seperate spacing for titles must be made, along with decorative fillings. I'm thinking of tiny roots entangling mr. Sloth (bottom right), or flames engulfing the Fallen One.

And there's more.

Anyway, this is a draft, so i have already compiled a list of ideas and corrections for my sis. We'll talk things over and have the second draft soon enough.

Excited :)

FIRST!!!

This feels weird.

One could argue that this seems hardly like a good start. I don't even know if to use greek or english. Granted, greek is my native tongue... but at times, i feel at ease with english. Plus, it gives a more... international look. Anyway, we'll see how it works out. Either way, i don't even know if i can keep updating this blog-thing regularly, much less worry about its syntax and grammar.

So, here we go. This is intended to be used like a notebook really. More for me than anybody else. You could easily argue, 'Yeah, sure, nerd- you've got us all fooled. If you really wanted a private journal, you could easily stash a text-book under your pillow with your private little secrets'.

Yes, i could.
