Random (work, dinner & dreams)

It is 11.22pm. Am aware I have to blog and I do have stuff to blog about but I have work tomorrow and I am tired.

Crap, I just realized I forgot to call home today to ask somebody to return my library books.

Work is still work, nothing much to talk about. Helped LY a little on the recruitment aspect because she lost her voice almost completely and was not at work today. Let's just say I realized I would really like to take up a sales assistant job again. Odd, but I actually miss the interaction.

-------------------
Met Ridzuan for dinner again. I don't understand why we ended up at mcdonald's at Forum when there were at least 2 others along the stretch from MRT onwards. Finally returned him a treat. Then we chatted. Rather, he talked and I listened. It is so complicated that I am frankly amazed at what he is thinking about. I don't understand why things cannot be simple. No. I understand why things cannot be simple, but why must things be so complicated? Or is it that because people view it in more complicated ways?

Politics and business. I don't think I can ever go into either of these. Too naive. So naive that I can be backstabbed and I probably wouldn't know.

Frankly amazed. I mean he's my size leh, though two years my senior, but *scratch head*... Age really do a lot of things. Ok, I am just frankly amazed at seniors who have particular type of mindsets.

Adrian's rum brownie is actually nice. Though I don't really like sweet cakes, his rum brownie is sweet but not too sweet, and the rum taste is strong. There was a warm sensation in my throat after having a few bites. Slightly crusty upper layer too with some ingredients inside the brownie that I forgot.

I don't think I have ever eaten a brownie before. It seemed cruel to eat one of the fairy folks.

I am glad that DK has made his choice of quitting his (much hated) job and picking up a skill while he is unemployed. The first very crucial step in chasing his dream.

I don't have a dream. I'm very easily happy. I just want to continue blogging, read more on mental illnesses (provided I can stop fidgeting enough to sit and read) and have a job I don't dread going to then I am happy.

Ok, I lied. My dream is to be good enough to be a Clinical or Counseling Psychologist, preferably the former. Not just study enough to be one, but to actually be a decent psychologist. First steps are always important. My first step at volunteering had no response from the institution. I have to take more first steps. Need to have more confidence in myself and less fear. Too much fear.

Completed!

Finally finished my 500-pieces jigsaw puzzle! Thought I would never be able to fit the white pieces together. May I remind you all that white pieces are very difficult to fix ok! It's the same with all same-coloured pieces. Imagine trying to figure out which piece fits where purely by the shape of the piece, plus some have very very similar shapes except for one little itsy bitsy tiny difference. Don't know how many combinations I tried, running through almost all the pieces for one space and decided that one of the 2 pieces is the correct one only to have gotten it wrong in the end.

6 days (plus a lot of procrastination) isn't too long a time, is it?

Father got locked in

My father tested out the master bedroom door.
He closed the door.
The door got stuck.
He got locked in.
The contractor kicked the door in.
The insides of the door knob shattered into pieces.
The door opened.
My father got out.
My sister is now afraid of closing any of the doors.

Today's equations

A 384.0 kbps internet connection + 15 minutes to get into beta blogger = a bored and slightly irritated girl + books + going out and aim/less walking + a 500 piece jigsaw puzzle

To do 95% of a 500 piece jigsaw puzzle, of which 25% are completely white = 2 very tired necks + 2 very tired minds + 4 pairs of helping hands + 9 hours of work
