Circadian Rhythm

Working on a nightshift only means 2 things: you either lack sleep (blame Facebook) or get a plethora.

Last week I just had more or less than 30 hours of sleep. This week I’m getting 10 hours average in a day.

All my friends are saying my life is abnormal. I kept on denying it and in fact my skin didn’t dry-off, physically I’m okay. I get myself to befriend fruits and veggies and kept inviting them during meals and I jog (but lately I’m as lazy as a sloth). I'm not saying I’m enjoying jogging but I have plenty of time to do it in the morning. Plus, I got plenty of time talking to Fabby everyday, (he’s in Belgium, 7 hours difference).

My weekend starts at 8am every Saturday, will sleep from 4 or 5 or 6PM and will wake up from 2 or 3 or 4AM on Sunday.

This schedule allows me to go pimp myself with my jogging attire and will dash off to Baywalk for some air.

Also, if I'm going to visit my family I can arrive in Bulacan early.

But..

Yeah, it’s abnormal.

There are times when, forcing my self to sleep, under the influence of melatonin capsule of course, I get to feel how bad my situation is. My boss kept on telling me that it’s okay to work on an odd shift, I get to see sunrise everyday.

But when nothing to do here in the office than listen to the ailing English of my douchebag seatmate (His [referring to a girl client] pormula [p/f syndrome] to the pilds [p/f syndrome, subject-verb agreement] blah, blah, blah [and many more] and her exasperating daily “what’s the spell of …” which I'm very tempted to answer: “Ok bitch, read my lips: P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C-I-M-B-E-C-I-L-E." For sure she will accept my answer; I bet my one month salary she doesn’t have any clue.

But wait there’s more. At the corner of my eye, I can see her striking the keyboard with her pinky finger at the highest she can lift. A mosquito perched on your skin will get jealous on how graceful it was raised. So basically she’s just using 4 fingers to type.

If things go on like this and my boss will not keep me busy, i will become the most successful critic among my contemporaries, so successful I can retire next week.


Yeah, this is abnormal. I'm not a morning person, but I miss the morning lifestyle.
