time traveler's wife

last week was hell. i have been so busy. by the looks of it, the coming week ain't gonna get any better.

the word that reverbrates through my head most often these days, sadly remains to be the same subject i brought up some weeks ago: incompetency. somehow, i'm still unable to shake that lousy feeling off. i have done nothing that has remotely impresses me enough to be make me feel clever. and note that i have said impresses me, and not my bosses or colleagues, because most of the time, it's really all internal.

in fact, in all instances, i'm the one grading myself. and the more i do, the more things i find myself lacking, be it in negotiations, knowledge, analytically, strategic planning..... so much so that i find myself not comprehending why some people can still hold such confidence in me, despite seeing me fumble and fall so many times.

sigh, ok moving on from the heavier topic...

watched time traveller's wife today and i thought it was pretty decent, though it is in no way comparable to the book. i'm a massive fan of the novel; there was so much more content. the movie pretty much stayed true to the book, though there were many other stories revolving around the couple, friends and families that werent illustrated. figured they werent be able to squeeze everything into a 2hr film, so that wasnt quite surprising. i thought rachel mcadams was perfect as claire, still can remember her from the notebook, another heartachingly touching movie. i knew the ending right from the beginning, but was touched all the same. in fact, i was SAD before it actually happened because i already knew what was going to come next.

me, the weirdo.


alba, we named her alba
