Another translation work as guests are coming
Yesterday I received an email from my former office sending translation works and as always with a tight schedule. At first I wanted to refuse it for they haven’t paid my two previous works, but I’m just not the type who can easily say no to a friend. So I just replied the email asking about the follow-up of my 2 months old invoice and fortunately there was a nice respond saying that it will be processed promptly. At least that was a good will, compared to the email in which I sent my invoice 2 months ago where there was no respond.
So, yes, now it’s 2 am and I’m still working on my translation works (haha.. actually I’m writing my journal and a few hours ago I was chatting with my good old friend), one of the files I’m working on consist of 56 pages and they want it and the other files to be done by Thursday. I could only say "I’ll try to do my best" which means that it’s impossible to finish all the works by Thursday, unless I work 24 hours non-stop. Hey, I’m still a mother that has to do some house chores too !
And the interesting thing is, why do I always get translation works when we’re having company in the house ?! Frieza’s friends from his former office in Jakarta are coming on Thursday (which would not be a problem if I could finish my work by then, but again it’s impossible !). They have informed us since around 2 weeks ago, and they’re going to stay in our place. I love visiting friends, I feel happy when they stay with us… I’ll just have to make a good schedule of being a good host and completing my work on time. I just hope that it will work out as I want them to be… friends enjoying their visit, my work done as soon as possible and get paid for the works I’ve done.
