coffee break

after 2 grueling weeks, i finally finished the write-up for cmmi in my office. i was asked to write about cmmi because we are undergoing a re-certification and is scrutinizing and revamping almost all of our processes. lots of people (engineers, who else) are at arms with the change and would be changes. i think they have been too familiar with not having a process. it’s my familiarity with the standards and lucid disgust of ineffective and inefficient process that made them think i’m the best person to do it.

anyhoo, i am proud to say that i haven’t gotten out of my apartment last weekend except the time i have to buy dinner. yes, i didn’t go out and wasn’t tempted to do so. i was with rocky all day, playing with him,  reading my current book to him and researching for his new vet. he has grown so much becoming more nimble and confident. he almost chewed my vintage gucci boston bag but settled with my beany collection. i have to dog proof my house which i will do next week. praying that my stuff will last that long before rocky run amuck and start rummaging every nook and cranny of my apartment. am still trying to find out dog friendly restaurants and coffee shops so i can bring him with me when meeting friends and reading my books. i do miss having late lunch with friends and catching up with our week.

i’m styling 6 male models for this reality tv show. we’re looking for the image model of a known brand. can’t divulge much detail yet since it’s not airing and we’re in pre-production yet. we’ve finished the auditions and narrowed the models to the final 6. initial episode is now in the editing room and should be shown anytime soon; i’m now back on the drawing board for the finale styling. it’s difficult to style outside your style zone. i’m so used to style fierce, coutured, highly editorial look that i find it difficult doing commercial. then again the money is in the commercial world.
