Confessions of a Wokaholic

When you enjoy being busy all the time, it sucks when you don't have much to do some days. I am a self proclaimed workaholic. I enjoy the day when it's filled with reading, writing, home working , learning new softwares. As soon as one of these elements is missing, I go crazy. Some people get kicks from alcohol , I get kicks from working on at least 3 projects at the same time. I believe that when I get paid for working for 8 hours I need to have work for at least 10 hours. There is nothing being "Morally High" about it, it's just simple addiction to be busy ,creatively.
That's why I enjoy when school is is in session. Full time class load and research work keeps me quite occupied for the six months. I found that I am most productive when I am drowning in work. I not only perform well at professional life but I am happy and healthy in personal life. I find time to write blogs, read new novels, call family and friends, watch X files re-runs and try new cuisines. But all this kind of comes to a halt during vacation. Of course I enjoy vacations when they are about a week long. But there after I need to rush back to work.

I think this flows in blood. My father completed his law degree and another masters while working full time as an officer of the law. I have seen him coming home late and then studying for all those degrees. It always made me worship being productive and busy. I have many friends in school, who work full time and go to school full time and manage children at school. Kudos to them. It's lot of work but hey, they enjoy all this work.

Conclusion, give me more work :)
