Why always work late??!

It's been a totally busy month will all sorts of events happening. 
Let alone all the other happenings. Having to juggle everything at work is a challenge with all the plannings 
and callings to make and thinking of the next issue of mag is neccessary even before the current one is done!  Many times it's only when night falls will I have a nice and peaceful time to settle down to do design works.
During the day, 1001 things are happening. All the other staffs are launghing and chatting.

I enjoy what I do immensely. However I'm more of a person who doesnt like to be rushed especially when I'm doing my design works.  Because I beleive that if you want something good, you've got to give 
me time to work on it.
Second best is never good enough for me. A kiasu! you can call me but I believe that every work should be of top notch quality! If I handle something, I want to make sure that it's handled properly with good care to the best of my ability. If not, I will never want to handle it or work on it! That's my principal!
*dun mind me side tracking a lil, but I think many youngsters nowadays lack this principal. They are just too carefree!Most things not done seriously, even when they have an important position to handle!Dont know how to rise to the calling of their position!*

So! what's with the 'Why always work late' title? Well because of the many things I need to handle and of my '2nd best doesnt count!' attitude! and like I mentioned that only when night falls I'm able to do more design work. I tend to stay longer and work later VERY OFTEN!
To the wee hrs in the morning at times.

Mum being mum will always ask the so ever famous question asked by many 'abnormal' non-designers!
"Why always have to work late???" "Cant you finish the work earlier??"
"Why? Isit a rule that advertising and design ppl havta work late??"
mum asked.
(I'll be kinda irritated at times..but obviously didnt tell her la) I will ask.
"why cant I stay late? I like it!" Then tell dad not to chase me bout the mag so often la... =P

Well because we like to and our homes are horrible places. LOL..well not exactly..my home is lovely! But really! It's because we are just dedicated and passionate about the work we do!
The process of creating ads and good design work doesnt happen overnight, unlike what most client think and what MOST people think!

I so very wish that there's more time in a day. Maybe 240 hrs in a day. So that I can stay longer at my office doing what I'm passionate about! =)

*Cheers to all you passionate ad & graphic peeps who think alike!! *
