financial meltdowns, political maneuverings, a friend said on her facebook status that there's hardly any reason to watch anything other than the news on tv nowadays.
yet, that's all i've been doing during my stay here in mongolia- watching grey's anatomy series - in between battling one of the toughest projects of my short career.
financial meltdowns happen because of festering assets/non-assets. political maneuverings happen because of mismanaged governments. my grey's anatomy marathon happened because my other hard-drive - the one with all the good movies which i've queued on my to-watch list - is not speaking to my laptop. that's the hard-drve with an inconvenient truth, scoop, thank you for smoking, etc.
and i'm stuck with the hard-drive with grey's anatomy. the series can be quite riveting and even enlightening to some extent. but i'm sick of drama.
i need to get back to proper productivity. building real things, real relationships again, instead of being stuck at clients in a mongolian mining town. not everything is about work. i'm not an ambitious surgical intern. i'm actually not interested in watching all the investment banks crumble because of their own greed. i'm not interested in watching power hungry politicians wrestle each other. somehow, none of this is real. yet. this is all that i'm surrounded with right now.
48 hours to go. i just want a hug. a real one.
