La Verita
I am a half kuwaiti/half american girl living in Kuwait.
I am perpetually suspended in the granite hollow that fills the space between two worlds...
Not quite who I am, not quite who I want to be... Cat-lover, poet, music-nut.
I currently hold a PHD in both BS and Smartass. In short, I pitch my tent in the median of life..

Sweet Home Alabama is my favorite anti-Neil Young song...
Its 1:20 and I've only thought about killing myself three times today. I'm thinking that's gotta be some sort of a record.
I'm interning at this new place for about a month and I'm already dreading the prospects.. although, it is considerably better than the alternative, The Bank of Krap and Meaningless Endeavors. I've been here since 8:30 am and have attended one mind-numbingly boring meeting, I've written two detailed accounts of the minutes of the meetings and have had roughly four cups of tea with some sort of condensed pseudo-milk. I think I may be suitably caffeinated though unfortunately not suitably conciliated.
This place insults my intelligence... what the hell am I doing here? Oh, yeah, I'm here 'cos I have no idea where I should be. I have inadvertently become one of those people I hate. The kind that just aimlessly coasts along rather than actively seeks out what they want. Actually, that phrase could probably apply to every other aspect of my life as well.
I've just been told that the people here love to gossip... that's always good news.
I need a project, something to focus my attention on. My brother has taken up wood-burning... maybe I could take up burning too. Perhaps the burning of public offices and vomit-inducing radio stations. Is arson a hobby?
.... I can hear them whispering over the partition... I'm not entirely convinced the whispering is not about me. Perhaps I'd be able to hear the conversation a little better if some people (Read: 7tenths) hadn't placed an involuntary curse on my superior hearing abilities! :P
Ok, 1:44 and contemplation of suicide #4 has just hit me, but I'm pretty sure I wouldn't die if I tossed myself out of a second story window. My body is a pretty resilient mofo.
Note to self: Must think up more creative suicide attempts.
There's a guy in the office across from me standing a little too close to his window. I think he and I may be on similar wavelengths.
.......................

My bad... He's just praying.

Nice NICE layout, I love City of Blinding Lights.... Did you notice the videos of Vertigo, Coldplays Speed of Sound and one of Moby's songs too that was released at about the same time have the similar LED flashing lights background?
Love U2 :-)
you prolly wouldnt die by jumping out the 2nd floor window,....
but they'd prolly send you home for a nice long rest :P
jitterbug> Nice observation! I didn't realize that but ur absolutely right! :D U@ is the bomb! I love Bono's voice! City of blinding lights is such a cool song!
skunk> chaaan zain! ... if only i had some guts in me! :/
:P
I remember my first couple of weeks at the new job. I learned how to juggle kleenex boxes .. then I flipped over half the carpet tiles and taught the tea boy to play checkers. Then I started visiting the indian restaurant in the basement .. made friends and all; then the food poising hit and i haven't returned since.
That was months ago .. we have moved to the new office and the company has added a couple more engineers/programmers and we started devloping our first project. Hang in there, try the checkers thing .. its quite fun. Worst comes to worst, quit and find a more fulfilling job (almost did that seven times).
KtK> Thanx for the advice K! I appreciate it... I don't think there's anything to hang in there for.... the people who work here are telling not to stay! :P
lol its never good when people tell you not to stay.
either they want to get rid of you and split your bonus.
or they actually want you to stay, reverse psychology, so they can leave and saddle you with their work :| when they leave.
another thought on getting sick leave,....you know that scary spiral staircase that goes to the basement,...jump off the last step downstairs and say you fell all the way down :D
that should get you atleast a week off:P
Damn Skunk! U got some good ideas on u! :D
as for the bonus theory... I don't think they get bonuses to begin with.... :/
........ I am sooo not staying here.... :/
hehehehehehe as if! :P
wait a second... that's the second time someone has suggested that to me this week....
:/ wierd...
lol, well, you could do worse :P
and besides, the ladies trading area is quite comfortable and chilled out.
i stummbled in there by accident when i first went there :P
when i realised i mummbled something, like a lost tourist and left :P
being foreign helps sometimes :D
