} today, sept 22nd

isnt it amazing how we never seem to stop growing up? or at least, thats the case with me... i am such a nasty character that i tend to cast off most people i see as idiots (uh, yeah... sorry). which is why it's good that im working an F&B job because I think it really trains me to work with people. and to tolerate idiots people. (although sometimes i still can't help judging. today a couple came into a half-empty restaurant and the guy was like, 'is there any space?' i was perplexed so i asked, 'for how many?' and he was like gesturing and asking 'is there any place? for 2?' for 2 people? yeah dude open your eyes and look at the EMPTY TABLES. you can sit your ass down anywhere as long as it doesn't already have someone sitting in it!!)

today's Lesson of the Day is about the importance of flexibility and communication. yeep. i need to remind myself to stay humble and that there's still a lot i need to learn on the job.

my plan to use this term break / recess week to study for my Law, Governance and Development in Asia (i.e. bleddy mouthful, hereafter "LGDA") exam has completely failed because it's wednesday and i havent started. :| i HAVE printed out the articles that i was meant to have read ages ago though. that is something.

while we're on the subject of achievements (ha ha) i am completely succeeding today at not getting pissed at my mum. halfway through this year i suddenly developed this strange problem (in addition to everything else, wth) where i find everything my mum does/says unbearably irritating. today i dont find my mum unbearable. which is something. lets see if this lasts until tomorrow. *cross fingers* because i dont want to be an asshole who hates her own mother.

and while i havent been able to achieve much school-wise, ive been watching a lot of project runway (season 8), and that's a lot of stuff for inspiration. i also picked up this 'style' book by isaac mizrahi, and that plus the trip to ikea last weekend is really really making me want revamp my wardrobe. there's just too much stuff that i really dont wear much anymore, i keep sticking to the same stuff that i like wearing. i dont necessarily want to buy a lot of new stuff, but at any rate i think its good to do massive clean-out, donate a lot of still wearable clothes to charity, and have a cleaner closet...

also really really want to revamp my table. it's a lot neater now but i hate that 90% of my table is STORAGE rather than stuff that i reach for all the time. i want to revamp and by the time im done i want it to look like a damn beautiful office cubicle. something actually usable!!

but going back to project runway a bit, christopher collins is so gay. that voice, his mannerisms... dude, who are you trying to kid??
