Do We Need Extraordinary Ingredients In Life?

Cooking dinner.

How difficult it is to think of what are the things best to cook for dinner? Once or twice, it's still okay. But for two consecutive weeks, it has become so hard! Beyond your imagination, it is!

Sometimes you definitely ran out of ideas of what to prepare for dinner! I am damn serious. Okay, so you had chicken on Monday, then eggs on Tuesday and fish the following day. And then? Oh then, you ended up repeating those ingredients and then what?

How creative can you be with all those limited ingredients and at the same time to not bore them with the same recipe over and over again? Even if you're graduated from a culinary school or something like that, I personally think you'll be dying for new menus! You will be stuck with the same menus and that is very depressing!

Then, suddenly I was thinking about my resume that I have been sending out to my future employers, hoping for them to pick up my application out of the hundreds or maybe thousands of other application from others *cross my fingers & wish for the best*. But then, it made me think. What if, my resume is just a concoction of some basic ingredients like a typical dinner meal and nothing extraordinary to begin with? Say, will you choose an ordinary, lame, tasteless pasta dish or will you be  overwhelmed and delighted to have chicken roast with extra yummy consistently good homemade gravy for dinner?

That made me think.

I'll try harder on the job hunting and in the meantime, I need to get myself in the kitchen to prepare some yummy meal for dinner! :)

Take care.

Well, Is That It?

Hello!

Okay, here's few updates. Still no job. But, did I tell you guys that I am doing a volunteering job in a charity shop that support all the disabled people in Ireland? It is called Enable Ireland. We sell all sort of stuff that has been donated and use the money to support the disabled.

Well, I didn't get any pay for it, but then again... at least I can see people. That's why I am doing it. I just went in today, and will be tomorrow and Friday too. It's kind of fun though.

Anyway, yeah... what I was talking about before? Oh yeah, newsflash. Job, still nothing. Me, trying to keep myself busy to not becoming insane of not having a thing to do. Love life? I supposed it is okay, but I don't really know and I don't want to mess my head and thinking about all sorts of disappointing stuff, just let it flow and see how it goes. No comment on that one.

Study? Yeah, I have exams on the second week of May, and I don't really know how is it going to be. It's quite scary, really. Like, then what? I have my sixth year soon starting September, but do I really have to ask my mom for the fees? If I don't get any job? Such a pain, isn't it? Might just ended it right away, and go where? I can't believe this is how its going to be. Is it going to end just like that, me here in Dublin? It is so not meant to be that way, isn't it? Like, should I actually give it up already? No idea.

Uhuh, things are just getting so out of hand. Rent to pay, bills and expenses... and without job it just make it much more worst! We'll see...

Good night! xxx

Moving Out!

Tweet

Pheww!! What a long pause from hitting the keyboard keys to jot down some crappy stuff in here. Well, I have been living in my little topsy turvy life since then. That is why.

I am moving out from my special lair today, 15th march 2009. And worst, I will be living with two strangers whom I know nothing about. It will be such hurdles for me, for few weeks I think. I mean, I have been living on my own for so long now, and to cope up with housemates, will be a bit hard. Alas, I have no other ways... I am still out of jobs. So, that's why.

It has been five weeks that I am not working, and it just driving me nuts. Sitting home and do nothing, and despite of that, everytime you go out, the money just slides away slowly... not topping up is such a stressful condition.


I have packed all my stuff, and everything is nicely boxed up. Cleaning the bathroom, kitchen, fridge... and only one thing left, that is to sweep and mop the floor throughout the house. Sigh. I think I have a back pain already with all the huge amount of house chores that I have been exposed to this whole week! :)

I will be moving out later, at 3pm! I am feeling nervous and excited at the same time. God knows how it is like to live with people and those people to live with me! :)

Love life? Things are going well I think, but sometimes, obviously I do think about on how long it is going to be then before I collapsing again as usual! Knowing me, you should know by now that I am always, always unlucky in that department! :) We'll see.

There are just too many things happened in my life at the moment. It's just too many.


So, wish me luck with the moving out, and talk to you guys soon! Here are some of the nicest photos of the new home. Have a good Sunday evening everyone! :)

Life Is All About Math Checks?

Tweet

While I was doing math check, the usuals... routine of work in the office. I can't help myself but thinking. It is all about numbers in the job of mine. Being a Quantity Surveyor, you will always be exposed to numbers. Additional, substractions, divides and stuff like that. But most of all the times, numbers are the main thing. The point!

And that include the math checks as well. To make sure all the amount quoted is the right figure, instead of the wrong ones submitted, and it leads up to the conclusion of non-capable Quantity Surveyor is in the team!

Therefore, it is not so far off with life. In my opinion, life is all about math checks as well. Once you have wronged yourself, then... the reputation, the bad ones stay until God knows when!

In life, you will never failed to get, at least once wrongly math checked! And when this happened, everything seems to be so gloomy and it ended up facing the worst days of your life, and you can't help but thinking that it is the end of your life! Dot.

In conclusion, math checks are so important to avoid yourself facing the bad day in your life! Trust me on this. Been there. Done that!

Good night!! *kisses*

Noveau Riche?

Tweet

I am still in my living room, but my mug of coffee is drained out. I drank it all. I am still on the net, browsing here and there. For something to read about. To enrich my knowledge of all sort of new things revolved in this whole wide world.

Until, I came across a good definition of real life. It's ironic. And, not to mention... I think the phrase is kind of classy too. Noveau Riche. It is a French word, describing a new rich. Somehow, I just realized that more and more of the wordings nowadays, have been called out in different sorts of language to emphasize the meaning, as well as to attract oneself to actually hold on to that. I search more on this, and here is what I found... The fascinating meaning of Noveau Riche. Everyone is thinking about getting rich, but less people are actually determined in doing it. Performing it. I personally, wants to be rich. I love money. Full stop. Who doesn't, anyway?

More research done, and I found out that there is a university called Noveau Riche University as well?! *wink* Well presented, I think, somehow the university absurdly portray the real meaning of Noveau Riche. It is located in Scottsdale, and with the university motto... "Knowledge, Power & Freedom", simply means the Noveau Riche University is inexplicably served the real meaning of Noveau Riche. It is a university that specifically narrowed to one course, that will eventually reflected the new rich of this new era, in becoming a real estate investor!

It provides tons of intensive of Noveau Riche as it is all listed specifically. In my opinion, besides learning all these things to becoming the respected real estate investor, one would eventually upgrade oneself to become more respectable person as well with numbers of self-improving skills taught! What more can you ask, then? *wink*

As the world revolving non-stop in this fast paced developing era, to becoming a real estate investor, is the best option to live in. Each country is trying to cope with the new era, riping successfully. For example, Russia! Somehow, it has been more developed day by day, and now... it has been known as the Noveau Riche as it is explained. There is an opportunity said that to launch an exclusive social network for Russian millionaires. Therefore, how true is it to be said that real estate investor is the Noveau Riche?

Think about that, on this gloomy, sad Saturday morning... Probably, you will come out with some ideas, and somehow... dreadful Saturday will not be as dreadful as we can ever imagined?

Happy Saturday! *wink & twirl*

Cocoon Up

Tweet

It's warm, sunny Monday! It is a Bank Holiday today, which means no work on Monday!! *wink* It has always been a pleasure not to work on Monday, no matter how hard I tried to be focused on Monday, it surely won't happened.

Surprisingly, it is beautiful, again!!! It's an off day, and it's gorgeous. What more can I ask?

It has been a lazy day for me today. I have been cocooned myself in my room, and just simply being lazy. It's a bliss!

Foregoing the bliss moment I had and to have in another few more hours, I can't help myself thinking. What is going on with my life, basically? I am nearby towards thirty of age in few years time, and I am still here, popping around like a small kid, happily tip toeing, wandering around.

When would it be the best time to think and decide of my path of life? Has it already timed out? What if when I thought of aligning my path, it is way too late. What would happen to me by then?

Things like this always bother me. Too much to 'consume' and too much to think of. And ended up, off the narrow road of nowhere.

What will happen by then?

Hugs & Kisses

Hey hey... *wink*

Day by day, I think that the world has been unfair to me. It's not that I am getting the bad luck all the time, but it was the other way round! *smile sheepishly*

Things have gone more and more nicer, and better... way too high for me to expect, and it is the unexpectable! Inexplicable!

Life has been treating me good, so good as in too good to be true! *another wink with a twirl* The last time, I was so broken, scattered on the floor, like there was no way, I can be as happy as I can be now. Honestly, this is the best, the moment that I have been waiting for.

Everything in my life... my work. It has been so good, that I am basically enjoying every minute I am in the office. It's not like the last time, when I feel like I am one hopeless employee. Not anymore. I feel the job I am in now, and happy with the work I have. Of course there will be time that I think that I have had enough of work, but life would be so boring without that kind of feeling, wouldn't it? *wink*

And my so-called love life? *grinning*

The other pair socks of mine... Hmm, things are getting better, surprisingly! It looks like I am the girl of his dream now. Everyday, there must be a text from him, asking how am I doing for the day. Isn't that class? Why would he be bothered, even though if I am not there with him at the moment? Why would he be so caring after all this while? This is unbelievable! Oh, and of course... since the last couple of days, he never missed to come over and see me, even though for just five minutes!!! *grins*

My tummy, nowadays... always filled with thousands and millions of butterflies!! It's like back in high school, whenever u saw your crush walking by in front of you, you will get the butterflies in the tummy feeling! What just happened to me? Did I just got strucked by the love-angel spells, somehow, when I was dead asleep?

Oh, and sometimes... he just came over with the reason to borrow a DVD, then that is it. Like, what is actually going on here?

Whatever it is, I am enjoying every bit of it! I can't wait for my birthday getaway! Plus, he will be there, definitely. It would be much more fun, and full of excitement, I think... *wondering*

Off to bed now. Jot down something else, tomorrow. Have a good night sleep, people! Love you all to bits! *kisses*

Would That Person Be Me?

Tweet

I am in my room, sitting in front of my laptop and sipping a cup of coffee, early in the Monday morning! It's a Bank Holiday, again! Means, no work on Monday! Yayyy!

Surprisingly, I didn't go out last night, that makes me so fresh this morning. My friend, with the husband has gone like, 10 minutes ago. They have been staying here since Friday to wait for today to go back to my country for good. One of my list of friend, has gone. *sad*

Anyway, I have been out since Friday night, and came back home on Sunday morning. It has been a hectic night for me. I met the other pair of socks, of mine. Eventually, not purposely. Sorts of.

I have been to house party, without him. I have not contact him or didn't pursue any attempt in contacting him since Friday night, but he contacted me. (He did contacted me on Friday anyway, and decided not to come to where I was, and that was it). Then, I did ignored but then he tried to find me again on Saturday noon, asking me (ferociously!), where was I. What was that supposed to be?

First of all, I am not his girl. Second, why does he has to sounds like a lunatic, asking where I am and what I am doing? Technically, he is not in the position to do all that!!! What make him so curious to know where I am if he is not interested in me? And why would it bothers him so much if I am somewhere, having some party with some people and he is not there? (As I did answered that I am in some party, then he insisted to know where I am, with the reason, just tell him where I am so that he knows where I am, but he is not coming over. Just to know!). That was his reason, anyway.

Why would men be as difficult as he is, tempting and insisting on something when they know that they shouldn't be in the situation to actually do that? Why would men deny the fact that they are so into you, and suddenly chickened out, when they knew that the girl has the same feeling for them? Would that make them looking powerful than we are, and that actually makes them the superhero of this love life fictions?

How would I possibly survived in this act of life? As per in movies, there would definitely be one person who will get hurt in this sketch, as the usual, and would that be me?

P/S: Seems like daddy is broken too, today. *wink*

How's Life Treating You?

Tweet

I am still recovering from the invaded moment since last night. I just couldn't believe what has happened. Really.

Anyway, I am so confused about what revolves around me now. I know. I have been saying this thing once in a blue moon in my blog, constantly. But, I just couldn't help it.

I was on my way to the office today, in the morning. I was in the bus. I sit on the upper saloon. (By the way, I came in so early today. I already in the office at half 8, whilst I was supposed to be in at 9. Yayyy for me!!!).

Anyway, when the bus nearly reaching my stop, I went down. So, there were few people in front me. So, I stood still. As the bus is about to reach my stop. There are few people behind me as well. So, we waited.

Somehow, from somewhere... there was this girl (I presumed she goes to the study centre somewhere near my office, as she looks like one of the students), pushing me from far. I give her ways, but she stood still. I was confused. So, I stay at where I was before, holding to the bus pole. But then again, she pushed me as if she wants to get through!! I was shaking my head, and so were others.

Then we come the the stop, and somehow she just push me through!! I nearly fell!! (Ah, no. She is not Irish. She is one of the foreign students from the English course, as I saw her entering the college).

I just don't know what went wrong. Oh, plus I don't even know her. Sometimes, I think life is treating me badly. Yesterday, I was so angry (and still am actually, today), but today I am more like confused! *sigh*

So, how's life treating you guys? *wink*
