I was on TV A Fourth Time

Random Life Update!!

***I Was on TV... A Fourth Time***

Aye Readers, sorry I have been so inconsistent on here, but a lot has happened within this month. First and foremost, I was asked to be on TV a fourth time and was filmed, alas due to the champion's league they never released it, but it was there and I was in it, thankfully I do have a couple of pictures from the day should any of you be curious.

This time filming took place on a farm, so naturally before filming started I got acquainted with the locals, goats are friendly, at least the baby ones were :)
<-- These two avian ruffians however were not as friendly as the little goat, they ran that turf and I knew I had to watch myself around them.


The last name we were filming was the Campos family and their origins in Costa Rican ancestry, their story wasn't all that interesting I must say, but then again I had a boss with the last name Campos and he was pretty boring too, sooo maybe it all makes sense lol.

<-- Here is the typical onset selfie that these life update posts have become so accustomed to sharing, it was nice getting to meet new cast mates for this experience, even if it didn't get any attention due to the soccer matches it is still a fun experience.

Last but not least, dwn a ways from the farm where we filmed there was some thick woods and a river, where they decided to film more scenes. It all went well with the exception of when we started back up and out of the woods to get back to the farm, I felt a sharp sting on my arm and fund I had an allergic reaction to something in those woods. With this new mutation I thought we could put a spin on the Campos origin story of them being lizard men, but the director wasn't having it. lol

ere is the mutation in case anyone is curious;

 <--- Armformer! More than meets the eye!
Armformer, swelling bigger than my thigh!
The woods are dangerous to walk with skin exposed the Plantcepticons!! *AHEM* anyways that's that for the tv spot but it's not all for my life update, becauuuuse...

***I Am Now ITIL Certified***

Yes, you read that right my readers, those of ou who may have been following me for the past few months kno that the thing that took up a lot of my time was studying for the ITIL certification exam, well I just wanted to say I fially took it and I passed the darn thing freeing myself from the shackles it created, and having that burden on my back means that blog updates should begin to be more frequent and concise


Well with all that said and done, I will end this brief life update, stay tuned because there is more to come, and soon! :)

Much Love,

Wachi

MS Paint Mondays 36 (and 37)

Readers, it's Tuesday and a week later, and I'm sorryyyyy!!! I am still part of the living, lol. These past couple of weeks have been incredibly hectic with meetings, mails, forms, and trainings, and I just needed a break from all things computer. But we are back, it's MS Paint Mon--er TUESDAY!!!!

--Thoughts of the day--

* So I currently find myself amidst mandatory ITIL training, various customer e-mails, meetings, and a form for one of my future plans is longer than Goku's journey down Snake Way, seriously, like 12 pages long, and I need to write a letter of recommendation about myself. *Ahem* 

* Anyhow, due to the fact that I have been so pre-occupied, I began to think back, to a simpler time, a time where I would come to work and be able to finish by lunch time, and it wasn't due to a lack of work either, but I was doing much simpler tasks, something that I begin to miss from day to day.

* However, I am incredibly thankful for my past 2 promotions, they have helped me learn so much, and given me plenty of opportunities, and way less daily tasks to do compared to my start, however these tasks, are lengthy and cluttered with twists and turns. Then again unlike the simple tasks, the harder ones give you authority to push others to move their processes to your needs, since no one will listen to a simple peon about escalations.

* It's truly an interesting balance, but is authority and power something worth giving up our peace of mind for? 

That said, this week's paints (yes with an 's' we plural this week ya'll) are based on a simpler time, from when I still failed quality exams, but others from my group passed them in perfection. Specifically these 2, who were in my training and eventually began dating, then it didn't last but that's not the point, it's a time celebrating when one would be recognized for their achievements, something that appears to happen way less the higher up the corporate ladder you get. Oh and I call this paint "Kat and Osvaldo´s double 100!"

Continuing on with the simpler life, I give you this paint from the 2010 world cup, during that time we had a screen in the middle where we could watch the games and make bets on them should we chose, in this paint, simply titled "My Conscience and Me World Cup" my conscience, Tusky, a mouthless, bunny eared boar (his origin is a story for another day) is pummeling me with a ball, for taking to partake in the beats and losing quite a bit, despite his warnings before hand. lol. Ah, the simpler inner struggles.

As always, I hope this exercise helps you ease that weekly case of the Mondays and inspires you to start creating new things, and really help expand the creative construct that is your brain! I encourage you to share/send me your own MS Paint Monday creations, if I get enough I plan to do an MS Paint showcase at the end of every week so we can enjoy each other's styles and imaginations.

Much Love, Wachi
