Boredom Madness

Alright. It's Sunday, and I'm at work. It's been a month now since I started my work as a Jr. NOC Engineer. So what does a "NOC Engineer" do? Primarily, NOC's are the escalation master - expect that from time to time, in as little as every 10 minutes, a request, complaint, or trouble is delivered in inbox. But what do I do with it? As I have said, I escalate. But of course, I should do necessary procedures first before I escalate a particular issue. What I do like about being a NOC Engineer? I see lots of exposures good for career growth, but for now, I am just a ticket handler. Anyway, again it's Sunday. Very different from regular work week. Saturdays and Sundays are plainly "boring day". So, I am listing down my version of killing time.

Emil Carlo's how to kill time

1. Study - For once, let's pause not for pure leisure. If we want to kill time, use it for your benefit. Try browsing through tutorials, articles, and other learning materials than can be found on the web. You might want to try reading the bible. You might find doing this useful to your work later on.

2. Organize - 90% of people I know are not organized, be in their work space, file cabinets, or even pedestal. Their reasons, not enough time. Now that it's idle, I think this is the right time to organize things.

3. Plan - Plan things that must be done. This can be simple appointments, timeline to achieve something, and budgeting.

Diet begins today

Ok, I just started with my cleansing diet but oh, I feel like being killed slowly haha. My worst enemy is water - clear, tasteless, boring. How can I survive without drinking soda? Aside from water, I need solid foods, but dang I forgot to buy apples T_T Now my body's shaking, but I don't have a choice, I really can't go down as I can't leave my post. Now what will I do? My head is starting to ache, my stomach grumbles, my eyes shutting - ultimate. But again, I need to do this, to kill myself bwahahaha. I am giving myself one week, and I need to push myself hard. Starvation might not be a solution, but I got no choice. xD

Losing it all

I always believed that I lived a healthy life. Yeah I sometimes tend to overeat but I never admitted that I am gaining weight - gaining weight a lot. This has been observed by my friends and even some people who's been around me for quite awhile, yet I am convinced that I, my body still looks the same. It was until about few days ago when I received my medical results.

It was about a week now since I learned that I now am classified as obese class 1 - I am 26 years of age; height is 5'4; weighing 142lbs; and obese. It's not that bad I thought, but hey, I should shed these fats off my body and start to live a healthier life.

Starting this week, I will do an apple and water cleansing diet. Note that my current weight is 142lbs. How about losing as much as 5-7lbs after this week? I am not quite sure about what to do yet, but I guess this should be a good start. When I gained 22lbs in just about a year, It's not gaining, but losing - I lost confidence. I lost control. And more importantly, I lost life. Now, I think it's about time to start losing what I gained and start regaining what I lost.
