Out of Sight

HBO kept showing Out of Sight this month.
I consider this movie one of the sexiest movies of my time.

That was George Clooney & Jennifer Lopez at their best. Not that they don't look good now.
They definitely still do.
George Clooney is still on top of the list for Sexiest Man while Jennifer Lopez, who finally decided to keep her profile extremely low, is still on top for best-dressed celebrity. That goes to say that she looks hell best in whatever she wear.

But boy.. don't they look young in that movie.

Ahh... how time passed.

I think these two celebrities look awfully good now.

I think my prime was at when I was 24. I'm 29 now. I understand that I'm beginning to look quite haggard after all those hard work suffering from late nights, jet lags & physical strain.
All I could do is hide beneath great make-up, nice clothes bought from overseas & branded bags. All to hide my flaws.
Not that I do that deliberately.

People compliment me that I look better now. But I do kinda feel otherwise.
I'm aging & I'm getting tired.
I'm not unhappy, but neither am I truly joyful.
Life has treated me both good & bad.

But whatever it is, I do hope that I look good like how Jennifer Lopez can maintain hers in years to come. Or decades to come.
Without all those cost of $$$$ for botox, facials, skincare, spa... etc.
Hopefully regular products are sufficient.

hehe...

Me Bullied. No way?

I was 'zapped' at work recently.

i still can't get over it. Call me petty. But even if I were at fault, she didn't have the right to tell me off so rudely. Because everybody realized that I wasn't all that wrong either, or the only one at wrong.

She's very pretty but decided that she'd have two boyfriends in different places. Can you believe that? I thought that is so 80s or 90s! Whatever happen to self-dignity.

I did not judge her at first. But her conversation with a colleague was so darn loud (I was sitting about 2feet away) that I thought I was invited to listen to the conversation.

Later, she snapped at me for being nosy.

I did my apology.

But she wanted her own win-win situation. So, again she 'advised' me also that 'there is a better way of correcting new staff'.

Talk about double-standard. Well, she didn't do a better job herself.

I felt very upset with how the whole thing was twisted into her benefit.

She wasn't even in the position to 'advise' me this way in the most intimidating manner.

I complained this to another fellow colleague.

I agreed with her comment thereafter:
She's just a pretty face.
She's not beautiful.

Elite 300 Staff.. My foot!

I went for the training to understand the leased equipment. It's built on 1996 but refurnished on 2006. I don't quite understand why the owning company wanted to sell it.

Some high post man came to talk to us about our new assignment. Yes, I do understand the management point of view. I do understand the predicament that my company went into because of French's stupid & silly company. I also understand that it's only cost effective & it's wise to phase out our equipments as the French equipment was supposed to be received June last year, 2006.

So should I really blame the silly & stupid French company? Some blame the company. Some blame the staff union.

They selected 300 staff to go on this assignment for 10mths. And they selected the staff based on their low MC rate per year (or last year). These low MC that we're talking about is 1 day or less.

What a severe punishment..

Now they tried to make us feel good by saying "We're the Chosen ones". So what? Are we crossing the Red Sea or what?

3 Auckland projects with English & Japanese/Shanghai projects per month. Sound so lucrative? How about my exhaustion? How about the long rest in order to back Malaysia? So what this is a so-called more lucrative offer? I'm already receiving such income anyway.

THey had totally robbed my joy of my work. I could have go anywhere, especially USA & Paris the next 14months. Now the whole thing about staying on the job till next year seems so empty. Not only boring & empty, it's torturing also.

Man.. I'm gonna be hating New Zealand even more. I haven't been having good experience in there.
