Continuing Saga of Sheer Shock

Too Proud

Yes, I know I am proud
But am I too proud for you?

Who are you to say so
You with your nose in the air?

Yes, I know I am proud
But am I too proud for you?

Who are you to say so
You who don’t even dare admit
You love me?

Yes, I know I am proud
But am I too proud for you?

Who are you to say so
You with yours eyes above mere mortals
Yet not dare look into mine?

Yes, I know I am proud
But am I really too proud for you?

Who are you to say so
You, who is so proud

Too proud to hold
Too proud to love
Too proud

For me.


Kel. 2 February 2005.

Today the announcement was made to Company of the committee layout of *R2005. Typically, before Friday - yours truly has plotted & hoped that the broadcast would be made when I’m on leave but alas! – anyway, so yours truly didn’t manage to avoid all the *back slapping, congratulations, envious looks, snide remarks, etc, etc.

Worse, *big director came out and congrat yours truly and then mentions that it’s a test, the CEO wants to *test my mettle. In other words, she expresses that it’s a CONSPIRACY! Yours truly pointed out it was a voting/nomination at the meeting, but she said the management had to concurred. In other words, it is the management behind our appointment. Great. Just great. *makes sweeping big gesture.

First, it was a sheer shock to yours truly, and merely somewhat chore-ish. And now *big boss has to put on the pressure. As if yours truly don’t have enough on my plate right now. *sheesh.

I know, dear evilness must really love me. *laconic *

Ok. Ranting aside, yours truly must now *prove herself and come up with a broad plan of activities for the year ahead to fulfill notions of “One for All & All for One”. *grimace*

Apparently, *everyone is looking to see how yours truly will shoulder the position of chairperson and to see how dynamic or lack thereof. Anyone wants to volunteer to help? *archly*

And to make matters worse, there had been some high profile dynamic chairpersons in the past few years & this is Company’s 20th Anniversary. *stomp feets*

This is it. Someone up there (probably in white!) hates me.

Am I making too big a fuss?

Worse, attributing too much unwarranted attention to me-self?

I think…

Not.

Sigh.
