In a way, the day didn't suck that bad since I found ALL the freaking documents!
Like, FINALLY after being at it for a week.
I was so glad to be able to lock that lonely room up for good and knowing I would never have to return again. Hi, this is not a challenge. Please do not send me back again.
Although I had to do the same old paging through the dusty stuff, BUT at least I was at the room where there were at least offices around! Which didn't feel so lonely. Nor dark. Nor quiet.
I have to say the lonely room is a step up from the musty room. That one smells more like paint didn't dry properly for years. Part of the room has missing carpeting and doesn't look very nice in that old, stained way. The door swings open much to fast and there's this cool air that wafts out. Which doesn't happen for the others. Lonely room basically just blasts you with warm, still air. The super packed room doesn't give you much room to do anything and the boxes are too heavy to lift. Very painful. Glad I'm not leafing through anything there as well. Hi, this is again, not a challenge.
Sooooo hoping next week I can just concentrate on doing clean stuff which requires some thinking. This current work has been very menial. I don't like it.
The guy who helped me locate the documents was nice. Can I just say he is very goodlooking? In my books, he is a definite pass. Not like many of the guys (my friends included) who continue to astound me with their lack of sartorial wisdom. Many times I just look at them and think, "This is where your money goes? What the fuck are you wearing? I've seen better dressed hobos. Okay maybe not."
Suffice to say, with some people, I have totally given up. I'm sure your money is going somewhere where it counts. I hope.
Anyway, yes it doesn't take a lot to look good. Basic point to note, fill out your shirt well not let it fill you out. There is a difference.
Height matters. I regret to say, with guys, it's a plus to be tall. When I see guys shorter than me and pottering around, kinda reminds me of that old man from UP? I think people can't take you seriously. Fact.
So of course, this guy is both tall, well built, has got styled hair, explored options other than denim jeans, actually bothered with his shoes... Shoes. I tend to assess my friends' shoes. Loafers/boat shoes are a pass. (He had my brother's exact pair of Sperry Topsiders) I will grudgingly accept -what are those called?- sneakers.. Other than that, I die a little inside.
Apart from talking about my newest eye candy, I'm also complaining about guys and their total absence of style. Thus, it's not just gushing over cute guys!
There are guys who can dress themselves properly. I've met them and they're not dressed a la kpop stars. It doesn't have to be that way!
I think it's polite to be presentable. Your attire shows how much you care for an appointment. Of course, we have to consider the setting and activity as well. That said, basic rule of thumb, at least don't look like you just put on the first thing you saw lying around.
If I feel someone is not making an effort, definitely minus marks. Buy hey, you're all defensive and thinking "I don't need her freaking marks!"
OKAY. But you can take a freaking criticism right? I'm doing it for your own good. Imagine when you need someone's freaking marks and have no clue how to dress!
Unfortunately, he's not even 21. SO SAD! -dies a little more inside, for dramatic effect- We were talking about the elections and he's like, you have to be 21 to vote right? I guess I can't then. I was all, "omg you are so young! I feel freaking old..."
He showed me this joke his friend sent him. And guess what! My dad has actually told this joke before. Mum and I always groaned and ragged him about how and why he would make up such terrible, crass jokes!
Guess he wasn't the one who made it up. It has been going around huh?
I totally cannot believe a guy's hokkien can lose to me. I had to translate the joke. OMG so basic la!
Maybe I do a Xueling and say "I got A for my hokkien but Cambridge forgot to mark."
I miss her and her cool sayings! I would totally laugh at everything she says even if it's just to throw our lecturer out the window for saying nowSadays.
Recently, I suddenly remembered Joey sorta teaching Nat hokkien and trying to explain what is 'lao jiao' and Nat was saying it over and over. And also the episode where Nat said she was eavesdropping on the conversation of these 2 guys and then asked us what they were talking about.
Quite sure that conversation was not clean!
HAHA :)
Reminiscent of this tweet -I was walking in front of these 2 guys who said "hey, this is between us". I turned around and said "no it's not!"-
Total Nat!
But it's nice to have someone who would talk to me, wave and smile. RIGHT? Better than stuck in a room feeling lonely :(
Epiphanies... they were probably littered throughout this post if you haven't already noticed.
Although people say that when you're jealous, you don't think clearly and you do things you might regret? I beg to differ. I think it actually makes me see things in a clearer light!
I find that I'm one of those stupid girls who forgive repeatedly in the hopes that the other person might change and stop doing things to hurt me. After all is said and done, nothing's changed. Oh like that's a major surprise...
It's not a crime to have friends but I would think there's something else going on with those super close friends? Which is something unsettling.
There is a time when I just don't want to forgive and forget. Perhaps you don't even realise that what you're doing is hurting me! Which is totally... okay, I will give up.
And finally,
although Wicked is coming to town and I am SO SO SO excited to see it that I want to just book tickets right away and am looking at the Cat A and B ones..
I don't actually know anyone who would go with me.
Just like I don't actually know people who would go to the ArtScience Museum with me.
SUCKS, doesn't it?
Wicked is the kind of production I would pay to watch. I love Defying Gravity and For Good.
Sigh. Just saw that only Cat C and below are available for opening night and the 2 nights after.
