Irritable but Irresistible

I really want to update my blog, but lately my life has been pretty boring and I don’t really have anything to say.

The month is flying quite fast. Seems like I just went for that useless dappa countdown and so fast it’s already the 22nd January.

Just some thoughts on my mind. I don’t understand some people.. on why are they so secretive over certain things. Like their relationship status, or something which they are doing to upgrade themselves. I mean, as friends we are only going to be happy about their progress in life, not otherwise, right?

My ex colleague. When everyone asked her if she had her driving license or if she is intending to take hers, she said no all the way. So I actually intended to take my driving license with her. So when I asked her to enroll with me, she always came up with some kind of excuses saying she can’t make it. After a few days, she eventually told me that she already has her driving license. She also told me to keep it to myself. Hmmm.. So when I asked her why she didn’t say the truth, she just smiled and walked away. This same person lied to me about her relationship status. It took her almost a year to tell me the truth.. And she claimed I was her best friend. Lol.

This isn’t the only case scenario. I came across many people who lie about many things and want to be so secretive about everything. I am not saying be open and flaunt everything you have to everyone. But sometimes, it makes no sense when you want to hide things from your own friends. Especially, when you claim that they are your close friends.

I also can’t seem to accept people who think they are so great in some way and show off what they have. I think it’s really immature and sometimes, disgusting. I came across this girl who added me in friendster. She was actually the girlfriend of a guy who I know in some complicated way and she added me to probably check out how I look. (Cos my friendster profile is restricted to friends only.)

When I saw her pictures, her shoutouts, her captions and her profile itself, I almost puked my guts out. The whole time, she was just ranting on how hot and beautiful she looks. Her shoutout says stuff like “No one can be as gorgeous as me, cos I am _________ (please insert her name here)” Her pictures say “_______ (please insert her boyfriend’s name here) is indeed so fortunate to have me, as no one cud be as flawless as _________ (please insert her name here)”

I mean.. You could be as gorgeous and beautiful like Aishwaria Rai. But why publicise that yourself? Isn’t that for others to say or comment? I just find it utterly disgusting. I mean.. A little bit of that kinda stuff is bearable in your profile.. But not the whole profile. It kinda churns my tummy a little.

I also hate people who like to fake their finanical status. For example, I have this colleague who loves to splurge on expensive stuff.. From clothes to accessories. (And everything else.. Cars. etc.) Probably, she doesn’t do this for herself, but just to show these off. She is a middle aged lady with two kids. I never really saw her spending much on her kids, but if she does, I am happy for them.

Everytime she gets something new, she walks around and flaunts it. I mentioned a few posts earlier that I am working with AUNTYS. So you can imagine what kinda reaction the auntys will give.. Which would probably brighten up her day. The irony is,she is the first one to countdown for her pay day. Cos everytime there is a zero bank balance in her account at the end of every month. Why put on a mask which says you’re rich when you can’t really afford it?

I believe in living life for yourself, not to please everyone around you. Materialistic people will realise one day that these things are not that important as they think it is. There is much more in life which has it’s importance which we fail to see.

I feel like it’s only been a blink of an eye and so fast it’s 2008 already. Time really flies boy.

I have learnt one lesson for the new year. Which is, NEVER EVER go for any tamilian countdown. MAN, I just wasted my friggin money and time. Reasons? Here goes.

1) It really sucks when you have to stand the whole time on a not so flat surface. (Uphill)

2) Just playing some songs for hours is not going to do the trick, is it? (I noticed that there were a few entertainers who did entertain for a bit just before the countdown. We need MORE.)

3) The crowd! I can’t sit or stand in peace. When I want to stand, the people behind ask me to sit, and when I sit, I can’t see a freakin thing cos people infront of me are standing. So i just sit back and admire everyone’s back beauty. So eventually, I just stood at a side.

Man, lesson learnt. I should have just planned something else.

I feel so exhausted. Travelling to and fro work everyday and doing the same thing. But it’s not that bad as compared to when I first started. I now actually kinda look forward to getting to work everyday. Except for the few assholes who ruin my day. (Like the one who sings in the office so loudly thinking she is Mariah Carey, and the pervert who tries to act extra-friendly).

I know many of my friends are really pissed cos I have not been spending time with them.. Going out and so forth. I hate this myself. The only days I am free is the weekends. I need to do a major catching up with all of them.. Miss the vasantham people.. Miss my vetti times.

I’m so looking forward for the CNY holidays.
