I <3 IT


Why is it that the IT department has so many complaints? Maybe because they are so damn slow at doing everything. My team just got a new hire yesterday and she still doesn't have her computer. When she and my manager asked IT about it, the IT manager said that he technically has 21 days to complete the request for a new computer. What type of BS is that? Seriously the IT department here at my job really sucks when it comes to things. Or maybe they only work fast when it's for someone with more power.

My web administrator doesn't even want to ask for a new laptop, because he's afraid that it'll take weeks or months before he gets a replacement. First off, the laptop they gave him almost 3 years ago was pretty much a piece of junk. They should have given him a laptop that works. For a technology company, the IT department kind of sucks. I guess that's what all companies say about their IT department. Just got to live with what you got. Lame!

For the First Time...I Feel Wicked


I saw Wicked for the first time last week at the Paramount and I absolutely loved it. Sitting there watching this musical made me forget about everything...my bills, work, dating, and everything. I was so enchanted with the music and acting that nothing existed outside of the Paramount theater. It was simply amazing!

Sometimes I wish my life was like a musical with dancing, singing, and have a happy ending. It makes me want to be happy all the time. Who wouldn't want that?! Just watching reminded me of my childhood where my mother wanted my sister and I to develop our voice. Just what if I took a different route in my life when I was younger and truly worked on my singing. Would I have made it to some Broadway musical or sing in some night club? I've asked that question many times before and don't really have an answer for it. I love to sing, but not necessarily in the view of others. I don't think I have the confidence to do what the cast of Wicked does. I can barely belch out my voice even by myself. I feel like I hold back because I'm afraid and it makes me think that I've been holding back like that for most of my life. Why do I always seem to be embarrassed with things, even when there's no reason to be embarrassed?

I don't know... When I find the answer, I may just post it.
