Last week, I made the decision to step outside of the demoralizing office and try something new...accept the shopper position.
I did like the whole idea of the job. It was quite different, interesting and challenging.
The only problem I had was the physical demand. I am not saying that I'm weak, but this is genuinely a man's job. Lifting gigantic and heavy boxes' definitely not for a little woman like myself. (Not going to start debating on equality between men and women)
*Sigh* Here is me declining the offer and going back to my old position (tomorrow). *deep breath* Yay! Lets go back and get that you-are-such-a-loser look. Am I exaggerating? No. Not at all. Some people already gave me the speech about how they are going to make my life miserable from now on.
Well~ What do you expect me to say and react? Start crying and quit? Or start bitching?
I am a well educated person. I am not doing none of these non-sense. Moreover, I am not a quitter, so I'll tough this through and make sure that you admit you've under-estimated me from day one.
Hey! No matter what you say behind my back, at least I've tried, I'm being honest with myself and have nothing to regret.
Afterall, the key to success is ambition.

Making The Right Decision
As you all already know, I want out of here so badly that I would genuinely do anything...anything in my power, but nothing illegal. XD
I'm in such misery right now that I would jump on the first opportunity thrown to my face.
And this is what's happening RIGHT NOW. I've been offered to do another position, but is it the right one to take? Or should I be patient? After this hell hole, I've become paranoid. I'm doubting every decision I make...wondering if it's the best.
Anyway. Whatever I say, I still took the chance to try something else and work with better people. *crossing fingers* I will allow myself a 20 days trial and see how it goes. Worst case scenario, I'll look for something else.
It is better to try and accept our own mistake than keep wondering "what if..."

Black Hole
This black whole is bigger, deeper and blacker than the one they taught you at school. Moreover, it will suck you in indefinitely...you just won't have a chance to get out. Pray for Miracle to happen is the only thing you can do.
The atmosphere/vibe is utterly negative...how do you expect me to be motivated? It is psychologically impossible.
They talk non-stop (or is it more "complain continuously" to make it politically correct) to each other and I'm the one being ignored. I do my effort and try to start a conversation, but only short answers were given back. But the same subject, brought up by someone else, more details were thrown in the air. WTF!?! At some point, I feel as if they don't want to talk to me or we are having a generation gap (option 2 is more likely, isn't it?), so I'm giving up. I do my work, the best I can, and go home.
Also, I am never invited to their secret little meetings (not that I want and insist on going, but it'll be nice to know that I count for something). Basically, I'm just a meaningless bouche trou. I feel left out, if y'know what I mean.
When you try to be at the top of your game, that's when these evil people will do whatever it takes to hold you down and make you feel like rubbish...which I do at this instance.
Beside making you feel like you're worth nothing, either they don't know how to train someone (Seriously, if you are not satisfied with the other person's performance/way of working, shouldn't you not let that person train me? Isn't it obvious that I will do the work the way I was shown?) or purposely withold information in order to dig a hole for you to fall.
Here, again, it demonstrates how it makes impossible to do a good job...the information given was wrong or insufficient.
Siiiiiigh!!!!! It will never get better, unless they are ready to see me as a teamplayer. My word.

Falling Apart
Everything in my life seem to be falling apart.
(I should maybe rename my blog and call it "Shit Corner.")
1- Because of my aunt, I went to a blind date and encountered a not-too-bad looking guy. But he either likes to 'ttyl' people or is not interested (well, neither am I, but at least I have the courtesy to answer my text messages).
2- At work. Pffffff Do I have to mention that it is a complete mess? After the so-call training, I am doing her position for the last month (without getting her salary) and still not sure when I can get back to the position I applied for in the first place.
3- How is it possible not to replace a person who's on vacation? Now, everything falls on me. In other words, I am doing two positions without getting a double pay and/or overtime.
4- Today, it's even a greater joke. That person is still on vacation and another called sick. What's the result? Well~ The one on vacation is obviously not replaced and the one who is sick was replaced by a person who's never been trained. HAHAHAHAH!!! Not only have I spent an hour waiting until someone comes in, but also wasted an hour to show the basics to that newbee.
If you ask me how I like my new job? I would honestly tell you that I'm not too thrilled about it. Nothing is fair. I'm fed up. FED UP.

Dealing With Crap
Two weeks of horrible training, then...two weeks of I-dump-you-alone-so-deal-with-the-crap-yourself.
WTH!?! Quite honestly, it is not fair. It is not possible, even for the smartest human on earth, to learn everything correctly only by observing from the side, with minimal explanation.
For example, how am I suppose to create a fiscal year report if I've only seen it once? Ridiculous, isn't it?
Once an error occurs, it's "Oh! No no no! If this this this happens, you should this this this." Pffffff! Are you serious??? This should have been said during the training, not when I'm struggling to do the job and a tiny little thing goes wrong. Can people think before blaming someone? Is there any common sense? Well~ No~~~
Oh! And what does it mean "we will switch places whenever I'm fed-up"? Euh...I didn't apply for YOUR position and I am certainly not earning the same salary as you are.
Whatever. I give up. I'm just like a prisoner who does her time and get out.

20 Most Hated Celebrities in Hollywood
Star magazine calculated the 20 Most Hated Celebrities in Hollywood and I am shocked to see that Anne Hathaway and Katherine Heigl is on the top of everyone's sh*t list!!! (even before Lindsay Lohan and Jesse James and Chris Brown?) This list is not very fair nor accurate. I would have KStew on the throne, followed by Lindsay Lohan and Justin Bieber.
The rest is less difficult to understand, but why isn't Robert Pattinson's name in??? And where is Kat Von D? Anyway...........

龔慈恩 - 聶小鳳 [雪花神劍]
She is the new villainess to make it into my favorites. Nothing more attractive than a terribly sad story, extreme smartness, frightening power and goddess appearance.
Telling you. 聶小鳳 [雪花神劍] is the best character 龔慈恩 ever portrayed. (in my opinion) Her cold and I-always-have-so-much-to-think-of look is soul captivating. It cannot, under any circumstances, be compared to those innocent and immature roles.
Seriously, if I can look this fabulous at the age of 49, I'd have nothing to complain about.
Note: Apparently, she spents 16 000$CAD/month on her kids, only for their tuition fees. So you do the math by adding food, shelter, and clothing. Crazy~
Note 2: Her name is literally a combination of my sister's and mine.

Best VS Worst Celebrity Ads
You would think, rich people must have great tastes and know how to spend their money wisely. Pffffffff!!! Not entirely true in all cases.
Lets just talk about the Marketing industry. Companies invest a remarkable amount to hire celebrities to be the face of their product...to represent their brand. Some of them are smart enough to make the final result worth the total to be paid on the bill. While others, you would feel that they have too much money and don't have a clue how to spend it, so just randomly pick an artist.
*THUMBS UP*...*HEART*
Dior: Charlize Theron
Dior: Monica Bellucci
Chanel No5: Nicole Kidman
Roberto Cavalli: Milla Jovovich
Bvlgari: Julianne Moore
Smart Water: Jennifer Aniston
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*THUMBS DOWN*...*PUKE*
Dolce & Gabbana: Madonna
Balenciaga: Kristen Stewart (this is the biggest fail of Balenciaga's history)
Dior: Mila Kunis (not that she's not good, but just doesn't match the brand)
Marc Jacobs: Dakota Fanning (Oh, Lola!? I would rather say "Oh lala!"
I'm sure there are more, from both categories, but on top of my head, I can only come up with these.

Favorite Disney Characters
Despite the fact that I have a huge preference for villains and villainesses, I do have favorite main characters.
Nala (Lion King)
Jasmine (Aladdin)
Well~ I should probably tell you, at the same time, who is the one I utterly HATE.
Snow White (Snow White)
How can a person be that innocently-stupid and ugly?!?
