busy for the past weeks

these past few weeks, i have been running around metro manila, jumping from one meeting to another, discussing different matters all together, with different clients, which often happens all in one day(?) tiring .. true, but come to think of it, i like it better than sitting around all day, in my cube, and confined in one small room. i appreciate the fact that now, i get to move around and that i get to do a lot of things. i actually asked myself if i really like what i'm doing now -- freelance -- or start looking for one, stable job, where i can just sit, and not scramble for the next offer i could work on, eh kaso, i'd prefer to be what i am doing now. the cash flow may be uncertain since it depends on whether i get projects or not, or if clients pay me on time or not, but at the end of the day, it's my own time and i am not pushed into something i do not want, or i don't believe in. and if i don't feel like working, then i won't work, i can sleep all day, or just do whatever i feel like doing for the day, minus the worries. :) 4 months of doing freelance work, and am still breathing ... thank God :D

the movie 21, about a group of students who counts to win big on black/jack -- nice movie, but not something i'd reco you watch on the big screen, dvd would suffice .. hehe. and one line from their professor/boss which actually is very typical of today's corporate world goes like 'so you think i'm your friend now? kid, you're only as good as the last money you make for me! this is business!', (geez, i forgot the name of their professor) .. oh well ... and that my friend is reality ;)

for now, the only sort of stable (?) work i am doing is tutoring ... yup am tutoring a 2nd grader, everyday, 5-7PM. good thing he's a smart kid, so all i have to do is really make sure that he does his assignments, check if it's correct, and make sure he studies for his special quizzes. not that big payment, since it's a tutor house (owned by a friend of mine) but it's better than not having anything at all ... ;)
