UTTERLY SPENT

It has been a hell of a week. Lets just say that hectic is an understatement. The Safe Home Campaign is due to be launched on May 30, but, the work has begun.

Starting from last Wednesday, its like a whole work load has been entrusted upon me, from coming up with stories and producing them in abundance because its The Star's campaign.

I'm just scared of burning out before the whole thing is done. It is all the more harder when I have not been sleeping well these last couple of nights.

On top of that, I am expected to go for multiple assignments and even check stories but I guess, I relish in the pressure. You know what they say, once a workaholic, always a workaholic.

I'm not really passionate about the campaign but I'll try my best to fulfill my responsibilities.

However, the campaign does incite some nostalgic feelings in me. Back then, I had a team of colleagues whom I trusted, depended on and quite close with. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying the present group can't be relied on but it's a whole new ball game when I'm sort of leading the pack and plus, I don't really know them.

Its a whole new territory for me, but I'm determined to succeed. In truth, its not just the campaign, but the job as a whole. A senior colleage is leaving and suddenly I'm sort of the second in command (sort of) hahah.

I don't know what to expect but I hoped that I have the support of my friends, especially in these trying of times.
