Unfashionable me
Short conversation on sunny Wednesday morning …
I was ready to go to the workplace with my housemate.
Me : OK, I’m ready, let’s go…
My housemate (MH): Wait … Something weird about your skirt, looks like it’s bit too short for you.
Me : This is 7/8 skirt not full-length skirt. That’s why I’m wearing stockings as well.
MH : Oops, my mistake. Sorry… So, those are not socks, but stockings… I get it now…
If I’m not mistaken, 9 out of 10 of my unusual-outfit trials were followed by similar conversation
Sweeeet.
The best job in the world
I’ve just watched short interview with Anna Wintour on TV yesterday. She said that she had the best job in the world. I envy her. Not because her significant influence in fashion industry today nor her magnificent income (hehe), but for her love and great passion to do the job very well.
If we love our job, everyday is a holiday. Double happiness forĀ doing what we love as a daily routine and raising income.
On the contrary, if we against our job, we’ll miss holiday everyday. If we can’t enjoy doing the job, for some cases, quit is not the most wise option. Perhaps we could do something as:
- list all positive things from our job,
- try to enjoy what we must do,
- think the holiday plan, imagine our dream destination, cool…
- turn down the old think melon, like I hate Monday, my job is not fun, I supposed to work somewhere else, etc. This is not easy, but doable,
- change our mindset, maybe the problem is inside ourselves.
Anyway, I wonder then, when the next nearest “cuti bersama”? Hehe…
Long Hiatus
Okay, long hiatus for my blog. My last post was on May 2010. A lot of things happened which left me no time to update my blog (read: I was too lazy to write, haha). I need to re-write regularly and consistently. Based on an old magazine article and advice from my supervisor, read and write are two basic activities that keep our brain sharp and productive.
For the last two-week, I also had to stay at home because of my injured-knee. I couldn’t move my right-leg well for that. I finished my policy-reports and all documentations in my bed. Temporarily inability to walk normally has also kept me away from year-end sale which happened almost in all brick & mortar stores. Well honestly, I was still able to do shop (D’oh… I shared the blame with my bookmarks and internet banking
).
