What&#8217;s the point of thinking how much you don&#8217;t want to work when you still have to? It&#8217;s way better to try to enjoy it so that you can actually get it over with as soon as possible.</p><p>Right now, however I am taking a very short break: went back to the hotel (got kicked out at 9pm as I was only one left without a key out) and now just gonna grab something to eat at the restaurant, maybe play a few rounds of darts (with steel tip, naturally) and probably get back to work again.</p><p>And no, I only drink like 2 cups of coffee the whole day! (did i ear someone say Starbucks?! He&#8217;ll yeah!!)</p><p>Now the food just got served, so bbl!</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://blog.codexp.net/2011/05/26/workahollic-on-steroids/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Hong Kong, round 2</title><link>http://blog.codexp.net/2011/05/24/hong-kong-round-2/</link> <comments>http://blog.codexp.net/2011/05/24/hong-kong-round-2/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 24 May 2011 12:05:40 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Alex</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[General]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Life]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Work]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://blog.codexp.net/2011/05/24/hong-kong-round-2/</guid> <description><![CDATA[Sitting at Beijing airport, waiting for my flight to Hong Kong.

To be honest, I&#8217;m not nervous, rather excited. It&#8217;s probably the first time I am actually looking forward to this.</p><p>Usually I hate such things as I get nervous always think about the outcome and was generally unsecure about myself. I would always go, and think about what to say, how to say it, and my head would be filled with &#8220;what if&#8221;s (Oh those nasty &#8220;what if&#8221;-thoughts!).</p><p>Now, however its different. I was nervous a few weeks ago when I thought about it but then I had a coach talk and it all got better. I also read a book that my honey gave me which made things even better. So now I am calm and actually looking forward to it!</p><p>Tomorrow will be a fine day <img src='http://blog.codexp.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://blog.codexp.net/2011/02/21/evaluation-salary-talk-tomorrow/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Interesting turn of events</title><link>http://blog.codexp.net/2011/02/13/interesting-turn-of-events/</link> <comments>http://blog.codexp.net/2011/02/13/interesting-turn-of-events/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Sun, 13 Feb 2011 10:02:48 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Alex</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[General]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Life]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://blog.codexp.net/2011/02/13/interesting-turn-of-events/</guid> <description><![CDATA[Sitting at Arlanda and waiting for my parents&#8217; friend to arrive.

The second step is acceptance.</em>&#8221; &#8211; Nathaniel Branden</p><p>I had an eye opening moment yesterday&#8230;</p><p>When you are told that you&#8217;ve lost yourself and you finally realize it &#8211; it really sucks.<br /> Not in the way that it sucks to hear it and you are sad that someone told you that &#8211; no, but in the way that you yourself haven&#8217;t realized it before. One cannot stop to wonder &#8220;Why? How did this happen? What do I do now?&#8221;</p><p>Why? &#8211; Many reasons<br /> How? &#8211; I stopped thinking/caring about myself, just got all worked up.. Probably that&#8217;s how it all started.<br /> What to do? &#8211; Just get back on your feet and find the way back!</p><p>Well, It&#8217;s not that I got a lot to say yet &#8211; I have still a lot to think about &#8211; but I will find my way back to the man I was before.<br /> How was I before? &#8211; Happy about life, self-aware, self-confident in some ways, less stressed, with inner peace.</p><p>I&#8217;m really grateful to my beautiful girlfriend Elin for helping me realize all this. Without her, I wouldn&#8217;t figure it out before it was too late. But now, I know of this, I understand that this is the way I am now, a situation I am now in. NOW, I can start getting back on track.</p><p>Keep an eye out for a change, because it will happen!</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://blog.codexp.net/2011/02/06/finding-the-way-back/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>1</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
