Wish Granted.

Why did I want to be in the advertising line? For something that perhaps no second person would wish for - the fun and thrill of working overnight for pitches, projects. Yeap, got my wish granted. BUT only then I realize it's such a bad wish!!

We were rushing the 28pp collateral till 4am this morning just now. A lot of "Fuck" and "Shit" were going round (bad karma, I know). So much so that the designer and I pondered on what could be worse than shit. He said soft shit. I think hard shit. We couldn't help it!! So "Duh!" right? We were trying to entertain ourselves.

Client delayed: changed number of pages, change information, and 4 of the pages were so tedious that we can spend one whole day doing it. I swear! I went into office at 8.30 am yesterday morning and only completed my part at 10.00 am before passing it to the designer. 4 pages that can make or break us!!

Anyway, I shan't complain too much either because client was nice enough to stay on with us till 3.30. After which, we wrapped up the job and backed up the file for printer. Whoa, I tell you, brain dead, brain freeze, brain malfunction. Same goes for body.

All we could do is curse and swear (without client's knowledge, of course!).

well at least you got the client accompanying. I had to stay up and continue working until end of day the next day alone with winks in between the hours.
But I guess it something we chose, so dun fret, enjoy it, it's a stepping stone, will soon b a lot better!!!
