brain cramp



i'm supposed to be helping my friend with her pet project. some social-action volunteer work for a non-government organization. editing write-ups of community-based projects. editing BAD write-ups of community-based projects. ugh.

the thing is, i had no recollection whatsoever of committing to this task. i distinctly remember telling her that i was busy the whole of february with our church drama. and i told her i'll tell my friend who *might* be interested. (i never got to tell my friend, though, because i was too busy.) now, i don't know if i was told that the work was not immediate, and with that i agreed to help... as far as i recall, all i said was "i'll see." also, she set a preliminary meeting, which i flat out said i was not going to attend. (hey, i already had other plans.) so i really had NO IDEA what was going on with her volunteer work. lo and behold... one month later... i was sent an email explaining the project, and attachments with the write-ups i was supposed to edit. due in one month. which is next week.

so now i'm cramming. because i really, REALLY did not have time for this. and i really, REALLY had no intention of helping out with correcting horrendous english. and *WARNING: this is now a really MEAN comment* if she wants to go do something for the betterment of humanity and to make herself feel good about her contribution to society, then she can do it without me. AND *WARNING: bitch alert!!!* if she REALLY wanted to help improve the local economy and/or society, then editing stupid write-ups about oh-so-goody-goody achievements of certain non-government organizations and politicians for some SOUVENIR PROGRAMME or commemorative book is NOT the way to go. really.

okay, bitching over. back to work.
