Without realising, it’s already week 6 of the year and I am still wondering where the time went. Usually they say, “Time flies when you are having fun”. But in my case, the work load at my day job and school have been piling up and fun lately has not been in my dictionary as I try to aim for the deadlines that have smacked me hard in the stomach. I could hardly breathe last week but since everything has calmed down ever so slightly, things need to be picking up speed again by today.
I started to forget the things that I was doing in my personal life. I would read emails and make mental notes of answering specific emails yet I had forgotten to get back to the task when I deviated off course. My to do list started to get ultimately messy so I reorganised it based on office and school and then I totally had to ditch the thing when people were telling me they needed drafted letters tomorrow because they were off for a few days and so on.
I don’t seem to be having enough time lately. Whether this is because of poor time management or that I have swallowed more than I can chew, but attempting to multitask has left me with all half completed works which means that they are all incomplete.
I am glad to say after 2 years working here, I finally got the booking system running in the company portal. Having the system is not making life easier but a lot more checking and auditing is done and a breakdown of how many orders were made and how many were fulfilled can be easily extracted now. Still feel like perhaps there is still a long way to convince the team to integrate it to our daily operations since I still have to teach them step by step how to use the portal to do data entry… Currently no time since I am trying to close the billing that is a few months old. The thought of the financial year is coming soon just makes me wonder whether time will slow down for me to catch up.
