crazy scheduling

it is not my fault when my scheduling goes wonky even if i have to split myself in two do get everything done..

yesterday evening was one of those times.. social call and so-called business (although i'm not getting paid) matters happening at the same time..

i push myself for it, i hate saying no, and i hate breaking 'dates' or appointments.. its my karma.. at the end of the night, it was fun.. exhausting, but fun..
and this morning, i had to pay the consequences of waking up late for work. karma, i tell you..

----------------------------

began with the fact that i'm suppose to have dance rehearsal at 7pm at 3sa's studio. considering the fact that i have advised another group that we need to have a meeting at 8pm at another location earlier, i suppose i have i miss my rehearsal and go for the meeting..

then good 'ole' canadian dude decides that he wants to see me dance at my rehearsal, since he won't be around for the show itself.. his intentions made me want to go for the rehearsal, and yet still want to keep my commitment to the meeting..

so what does my trusty brain do? it stresses itself out and finds ways of trying to get there.. why the stress??

here is the route : work place - home - studio - another location for meeting - social calls... all in all, approx 20 odd km between each place, plus the fact that i start my journey at 6pm, in the middle of super peak going-home traffic.

this is where it gets more ridiculous..

i called my guys at the meeting to ask if we can move the location to the eating outlet near the studio, since its nearer from them anyways, and informed them that i have a rehearsal at 7, but can make it for the meeting still at 8..

sms comes in saying, meeting is at 7pm, location near the studio.. i flipped, in my head thinking, which part of my rehearsal is from 7-8, cannot change timing, don't u freaking understand?? cause by 8pm, 3sa has got a class to teach and obviously cannot continue rehearsing..

"we only need 5 minutes of ur time, please-pretty-please..."

"ok, ok, make sure its 5 minutes"

here's where the smart brains came in.. i decide to call my boss and say i'm leaving early, about 5.30 or so.. just a hairline away from super peak traffic jam.. it'll be jam, but not too bad..

i got home at 6 sharp, was able to do a quick laundry chore, out of the house by 6.40, cursing for my own bad timing again.. thank the lord for clear traffic, and managed to get to the studio at 7.05pm.

sat in for the meeting, and it was 15 minutes.. yeah right, 5 minutes my ass...

went up to the studio, and another dancer hasn't arrived yet. because i was stressed and rushing, my gastric decides to give me a round..

7.45 we start dancing.. after 3 rounds of sweating like crazy, its time for 3sa's class.. here's where i start destressing..

--------------------------

after a quick bath and dinner, i picked up evil bunny to go visit our giant friend at chestnuts.. and it was the usual gang - steve, jason & jemi :)

some scandalous antics
steve, btw, is my best friend.. nothing more than that happened.. one of those opp sex friends that you can completely trust to be in bed with, but not have anything sexual going on. he's that safe, to me at least :)

the gang (without steve - he was obviously the photographer)

after some pool, beer and more dancing, evil bunny and i departed for our regular posh-hotel-based-lounge for even more dancing (and mayb drinking)

got there, got spotted by the dj at the entrance, got dragged to a table filled with his brother and friends. finally sculling my drink after about an hour of holding the glass.

was gonna stop there but..

dj : u want another drink?
ct : no thanks.. tired already (meaning that if i take another i might get high and pass out from exhaustion)
dj : awww, come on... *starts shaking his booty to the beat*
ct : gawd, if ur dancing, i can't say no..
