5:37pm...Starbucks Coffee (2nd home):

I woke up after Carol tapped me (threw a folder) on my head, it was undoudbtedly the most peaceful 10min snooze I've had in the past 2 weeks. She handed me my coffee and said "Its time to go to work..." - she's voluntarily taken the role as 'mother' to me, but don't think a 22 yr old 'mother' is great (she might be a 'milf' and all) but it comes complete with the nagging, criticisms, and lectures.....

6:15pm...Work:

Had a meeting with 'The Man' (he also goes by other names, such as 'Chief', 'Boss' and 'Tosser') the usual team was there aswell, Poet, Mark and Jess. We've been assigned a new project (first one in 3 weeks, about time we got some work...work = paid = money...happy faces all around). That's the shit thing about being 'creative designers' in the industry, its paid per job: no project, no pay check. (Need another job...look for another job...)

A 'wtf' moment in a thus far very boring night: Jess was organising the admin stuff, the 'paperwork'.... when all of a sudden 'Poet' (his name is actually POET...his parents are beatniks (damn beatniks!)) in all 'Winston Churchill' glory sonifies:

"An artist should create beautiful things,
but should put nothing of his own life in them.We live in an age when men treat art as if it were meant to be a form of autobiography."


- no idea where that came from, and honestly I don't care...I bet he's taking drugs, I know he is..at least tell me he's smoking something....

Right Now.....Work:

Its probably been about 2 hours.....we're suppousedly brainstorming....(I'm actually doing work...cos I'm a model worker)
Jess is in her ''thinking' pose.....I think she's just chatting, but she's 'thinking'...not much action, just 'thinking'

Gawd I'm getting bored just typing this, the post is boring (if u made it this far, I apologise for posting such a boring entry)......you see how you can't expand a boring and 'eventless' situation into a 6 part epic !!!! Perhaps work is comparable to a 'Wong Kar Wai' movie....or a Mainland China Movie (if u didn't fall asleep in 'Raise the Red lantern'...I applaud u...)
