We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.

attraction

The LAW OF ATTRACTION
could very well be a very true and working thing.

And if so, I don't think it is bound by distance. And I'm talking about long distance; distance across oceans. Though I haven't gotten a change to truly test this theory. My recent experience could be a "mere puff" (that's a legal term for something that's over exaggerated).

When my mom was away in Barcelonaaaa, I was thinking of getting a leather jacket I'd seen in MNG quite some time back AND leather boots to go with. Just because I love those sorta things ;D I just wanted to wait for her return to discuss if it would be a good move to get them, with my own hard earned money of course.

Turns out. HEHEHE this is where it gets interesting :D :D Mom got me exactly those two things when she was on her trip. I totally love them! It's almost exactly what I would have chosen for myself.

Genuine Black biker-chick Leather Jacket
&
Hot Brown ankle-high Leather Boots

I'll post pictures of them when I'm not too lazy to get them. Hehe right now, I just wanna savor the moment.

Ciao.

movies

A multitude of emotions. UP and DOWN.
A series of suicidal thoughts.
The endless doubt.
The invisible self-esteem.
One week later.

I'm finally seeing the potential brightness of the future. I admit, I'm still feeling a tad too emotional, but definitely better than I was and definitely away from the negative side. Most of which I must credit to the most random movie.

High School Musical 3: Senior Year

Isn't it somewhat magical the effect some movies have on you? I mean the scenes, the words, the music all in all giving you new inspiration; a hope that things will get a little better. Even though you know it's fictional and that there are many more factors to consider in the "real" world. Still, people associate with the plot they watch on the big screen.

Relevance? It has similarities to the situation(s) they're facing in their own lives.
Why? Because they want so much to believe that it is possible to overcome.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think in the history of movie making, there isn't a single one that leaves people discouraged after watching it. Sure there are movies that leave its audience unchanged emotionally, like those slap-stick humorous ones I.E. Austin Powers but never one that dampens ones spirits.

All people want (and need) is a little bit of HOPE.

Work that wall baby

What?
Maxim Wallcoverings
-The Art of Wall-
Easycook


Where?
1. Maybank Treats Fair
2. MF3
3. Perfect Living '10

Why?
1. For the fun of it. What else to do with so much time on your hands.
2. Of course, the mooolaah ;)
3. Different kind of work experience.
4. See the world from the other end of the looking glass (sales person to consumer).

How?

Out of all three exhibitions, I must say by far(!) the Maybank Treats Fair tops the lot. That event to be was real fun because there weren't any expectations set besides having to stand and look pretty. So the driving force to sell came from within, no external factors added :P Best of all is that I got to meet a bunch of new people, all great at what they do. First time wearing a Hanbok too. The research was fun, wearing it was a nice adventure too. But ONLY the first time. After that, it felt more like a chore.

MF3. SSSSIIIIGGGGHHHH.....
In a word, that's what the ordeal felt like for me.
Definitely the best looking display of our product among all exhibitions. But also the most frustratingly annoying. In every possible aspect. The management. The products. The consumers. And, probably the most frus point, the lack of communication. The situation greatly affected my performance. Of course, it was cause much to my own short comings i.e. low self-esteem, competitive spirit, over emotional personality... No doubt this was totally avoidable, as it's always a choice to let something affect you or not. In retrospect, it's good that I encountered this and reacted the way I did 'cause now I know how I should behave. Lesson noted.

This weekend's Perfect Living'10 exhibition takes a close second in the ranking. This time, I still wanted to prove myself, but it wasn't my main goal. I just went with the flow, letting the money take a backseat in my priorities. So that made things more fun. But this fun was repeatedly doused with showers of cold water. Serving the customers was my high time, especially some customers who were appreciative of getting to know the product, whether they ended up buying or not. The unavoidable interaction in between with the irritatingly-irritated one wasn't pleasant though. Practically everything I did was not satisfactory, and the constant brush-outs didn't help either. It got seriously annoying because I don't know WHAT it was that made me get this kind of treatment. Is it because I got another job? Or rather WHO i got the job from? Is it because there's someone more capable to dote on? Whatever it is, the most annoying part was the level of openness to the favouritism shown. Isn't moderation key, as they say?

What's next?

Well, given the recent exhibition, that depends on whether I'm still considered a valuable aset to the company. Only time with tell ey?

Note to self:
MUST BECOME MORE CONFIDENT. GROW A BACKBONE DAMMIT!

ohh shopping

I finally got a chance to go shopping :D
Ok yeah so I didn't buy anything. But that doesn't mean I didn't have fun.
Today was awesome!

Saw so many pweetty things that I want for myself :D:D
But before succumbing to the wants. I must satisfy my needs. And right now that's shoes for Grad Ball. I have a couple potentials at least.
Hope I have enough time to get it.

I caught Nanny McPhee with Weng Yee, Pam and Anthea too.
Movies with this bunch is always good, no matter the movie ;)
I have to say it is funny. But I can't say that it was better that the first Nanny McPhee movie.
Then again, most sequel firms aren't very good.


Good times aside, time to focus on Grad Ball. In 2 days.
Ahh so much to do, so little time.
