If there was a word to enlarge and exaggerate the word 'busy' yet at the same time actually mean it as if it was real, it should totally describe or color the whole of today.
It was the first day of data entry. As in, the surveys that was done by the enumerators were finally put into soft copies and into .xml files, in order to be turned into csv to be able to be placed in databases. So, with the databases that the two database experts I'm managing have programmed, we had a testing day. And because some enumerators weren't that clear on some questions, it was a bit of a rushing day with questions asked and editted and re-modified and re-programmed. Test and run. Emails sent, papers flew. Questions queried. It was a very upbeat day.
As I sit here waiting for the soft copy, I kinda think about what's to come. It's kinda like my theory about thinking the present and not the past or the future but as we all know it, it's hard to practise what we preach. I just hate this feeling of 'lost'. I know St Patrick would help me or I'll be outta here in one way or other.
Speaking of St Patrick, I had lunch with ex-boss, who's actually my boss again now. She told me that I might get paid extra this month for doing more than I need to. I'm kinda fortunate that I got good people I'm managing. I mean, if they were assholes, I'd be lost by now. A guy and a girl, to whom I've become a lot closer to, and who actually treat me like their big brother, it was the most fortunate thing to get these two geniuses with good personalities.
Yay, the datas just got here and I could finally go home. So, as usual, I'm about to hit the road back to my place and possibly sleep.
