my office

I think i have the weirdest office in the whole universe. (sigh, you'll know why it didn't end with an exclamation mark)
By saying office, it says all, the place, the people, the environment, the atmosphere, the job, the work, the neighbor, everything. I have only 2 people in my office, my colleague and I, well, ya, only 2 of us. 2 people working? Ya. So, where's the boss? He seldom come to the office. Sometimes, i see him once a month, or twice. Then who give us work, hmm, I'm not sure about this, the client??
The company started with 2 people, then 3, then 4, then 5, then 3, then 2, or 3, no, it's actually 2 and a half, since my boss no longer working here, (ya, he's actually working for another company now, funny kan?) he shouldn't be counted in, then we have an accounts whom we are actually sharing with another company, that makes 2 & a half. My office is in a bungalow. 2 people live in a bungalow? that'd be too spacious kan? We are sharing the lot with another company, so, we have neighbor, of cause, they are weird too, aren't we staying under 1 roof? They have more bosses than the staffs, sometimes. Ya, the amount of their bosses is changeable. We don't really have boss, they have too many bosses.
You wouldn't see anyone in my office before 10 every morning. Of cause there is exception, ya, sometimes you can't even see anyone untill 11. If i'm not mistaken, my office hour start from 9 to 6. Of caus i'm 1 of those, i'm still in gym at 9. And we have the most flexible lunch hour in the whole universe as well. it could start anytime and end anytime! And the duration could be hours or days! (oh, that's too much, but hours is true.) That's why so many activities can be done during lunch time, eat (of coz), shopping (we do this a lot), car wash sending, banking, pedicure & manicure (I know you'll read this, but i mean no offense), shopping and shopping (that's why i repeat it).
You can also see the weirdest people in this habitat, alcoholics (people who drink 8-9 times a week), smokers, homosexual, heterosexuals, chinese, petak 3, petak 4, petak 5 (all are others races), people who like to eat... a lot (but she's not fat), people who can't live without internet access (this is acceptable), people who don't even use computer (no, he's not a dispatch), people who thinks USB flash drive can be finished (I was asked to stock up if it's finished), people who always so 'kan cheong' until she calls a paper factory to order some normal size envelope which you can actually get it in a normal bookstore, people who don't know we have dictionary in our handphone now a days, people who like to come to the office so much even on weekends, people who don't come to the office whenever they don't feel like to, people who'll be on MC whenever her period comes... too many kinds of characters, can't recall all in a moment, i bet you can't find these people in a normal office (at least not all at a time).
I do feel lost sometime, i feel like is that something wrong with me by staying in this place, it's so unhealthy in so many ways (that doesn't mean i didn't enjoy it), it's not that i don't like the people here, i like all of them (well, almost all of them), but it feels wrong, somehow i feel something wrong with working in this office, i just can't tell. It's like aren't those things are what a normal working class would dream to have? I don't know, it just very confusing...
Anyway, i'd finished my folio, my first folio in 4 years. I haven't had any idea of where to use it, i just think i need to get prepared, so that i can just go when i gotta go (but don't forget to look back sometimes, blah... haha).
