PURE words by Lone

OOPS! I skipped a week last week! I shall have to make it an even LONGER blog.
Today is a fan day in terms of temperature =D! okay so last week..it hailed slash slush snowed and all that crazy stuff...RIGHT???
DO YOU KNOW WHAT the temperature of today was? (and ytd fyi) 18' BLOODY degrees (c')!

I JUST had to take advantage of that and I went outside to do some excercising ;) aka jumping jacks and then some back and forth criss-cross elbow-to-knee excercise.

:s LOL...but literally..in the past month we've had i think 2 days of sunshine (and by that since daylight savings is on and the sunlight has been going down earlier and earlier...like at 5pm...) we've had like 4 hrs of fullday sunshine since then..its been terribly glommy. Even today is gloomy...which may contribute to my terrible mood these days...

COMPLAINT #1:
Last week I went to get some papers signed at the Registar's office (UGh admin errands) and I've never met a nice admin person. sorry. but SCHOOL needs to hire some happy workers..they don't have to be HAPPY per se...but just not take everything out on students!!

SCENE: After waiting half an hr (not unusual) I get a call to go inside..

I say: Hello (usual greeting) and present the paper that ONLINE it told me to print out.

she says: 'What is this? You've just presented a paper to me. What do you want' (hello to you too! I haven't even had a chance to explain!!!)

I say: Oh I need a paper that says that I'm registered for this year at the school. I know I can do it online but I'm an education student so online they told me to print this form and go in person.

She says: Yes well...this is useless. You can just tell me in person.

I say: Oh well...it says to print it out online so I'm just following the instructions.

She says: Well. You don't need to print it out if you're coming to me in person. You know...this is only if your faxing or emailing..

I say: OK well I didn't know that (obviously if I printed it out) because online it says to print the form out

She says: Well...I'm just saying you could've saved ink and trees. BLAH BLAH BLAH..goes on ranting about me wasting paper etc...
SUDDENLY out of NOWHERE she flips and says "LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME WHEN I"M TALKING TO YOU"..

I: (literally this is the face I'm making- SHOCK) "O.O" (WTF???)

She says: Are you listening? You know ....(starts talking about me wasting paper...she doesn't understand the fact that online it says to print it and i'm following instructions..JUST GIVE ME THE DAMN PAPER) - FYI she RE-told her story THREE times before I was let go with her signature.

I: (upon leaving...didn't want to say anything in case she held onto my paper) Next time if you really want people to save paper maybe you should change what it says online. I'm just following the instruction...JUST SAYING.

SHe put in a terrible mood after. why is she ranting on about paper? WOULD I have uncessarily gone through the trouble to print that out if I knew I didn't need to print it out? she cray...CRAY. CRAZy.
stop taking it all out on us! I'm pretty sure her anger did not come out from me wasting a single sheet of paper....and btw FOO it's called recycling

COMPLAINT #2:
Lately having only 2 classes a week and having my boyfriend shipped down the continent I have been having a lot of individual time which resorts to all the LONELY pity time upon myself. =(

It's come to my understanding that I do not have many girlfriends..and it is ESPECIALLY difficult to befriend and get close to new girlfriends as I am not in highschool anymore so I don't come across seeing someone almost everyday spending time with them and getting to know them. It is one of those unfortunate circumstances in life where I happen to come across.

So I have made the effort to call upon one of my oldest but drifted apart friend. We've drifted apart a lot because #1: my fault because I realized that I took advantage of the fact that she used to make most of the effort to come see me #2 Her fault because after I realized my taken for granted meetings it was kinda late and she started all this vball thing with her other group and ditched me a lot on our dates which left me hurt...#3: BOTH our faults because after we kinda both stopped making effort.

So in order to hitch back our friendship I called her up for another date. I told her make time for me and it doesn't matter where we eat or see each other and for her to choose. She agreed. The night before our meet up she tells me that she has this vball thing in the evening...and left us a 2 hr window to chill..which left me hurt AGAIN..becuase I feel that if a friend hasn't seen in you a REALLY long time (btw this is like 4 years though it technically isn't as long cus I've known her since I was a baby) if it was upto I'd make that extra effort from the usual things to go see her instead..but anyways whatever..i said fine. I can have a drink with you or whatever...but it never happened...

The night of her birthday she calls me up (random but I guess not unusual given the history of friendship we have) and tells me how she has nothing to do on her bday adn things flopped or whatever..so I say (since it IS her bday) I'll take you out and see you then. She agrees and says she'll give me a call as shes leaving soon after she gets ready. FLOPS again....I never got the call and I never heard from her....12am I msg her a sarcastic msg (it was mean cus it was her bday but she keeps doing this to me!) and apparently she met up with her vball friends...AGAIN...it totally crushed me but it did remind me why we haven't met in the longest time. now I'm over it and everything but I did realize that a girlfriend is needed in my life...

Here are my criteria (although I highly doubt I will find the PERFECT gf):
-It'd be great if she was Asian HAHA (stereotypical) but we'd have a lot more in common
-Christian (same morals, values and beliefs actually a big thing)
-School (If she was in grad school then we could totally spend time studying together at each other's houses)
-Live nearby (then we could just chill at each other's houses n do nothing..do our nails...talk..cook/bake whatever)
-Not be bounded down (then we could travel together to those cheap Cancun trips in winter...with her bf and my bf like a couple thing..or just me n her)
-Don't be vegetarian (I've lived with a gf for a bit who was vegetarian and whenever we went out she refused to order dishes that was purely salad cus she said she'd be hungry and then when I told her to order any dish on the menu and simply take the meat out refused as well cus she said meat dishes cost more! It was either...go to vegetarian restaurant or go home deal. I mean Im not a fan of eating meat all the time either (prefer vege meals occassionally) but if I can't go into a restuarant because they don't serve specifically for vegetarians and you refuse to alter the dish then...sorry.
-CLICK (her personality has to click with mine. There are great people that I appreciate and are nice..but if our personalities don't click then it's just tough to be super close with)
-Shopping (Please enjoy shopping. I know someone who doesn't like shopping! WHat girl doesn't like shopping? that is one of the best stress-relievers and fun things to do with other girls. and Plus..that's one of the things you can do with another girl and get to know each other. LOL.

OK this is my list at the top of my head. I probably wont for a really long time meet another close girlfriend that will click with me (esp. with all the criteria) but it'd be nice to wish upon. I am a loser who can't find a way to befriend new people. lol. Who knew how there are billions of people around you all the time but how hard it is to go outside that boundary and meet new people and befriend them in way to get close? I mean it's not like you can just GO upto a random person and start chatting (what limited opportunities pose for new friendship) I say...since there are those speed DATING things..someone should hook up a speed FRIENDSHIP thing..I mean I can't be the only 23year old girl thinking this...and it's always nice to befriend MORE people than less right? :s and if that opportunity provides you to find someone who clicks wiht you and has a lot in common then go for it. someone invent SPEED FRIENDSHIP...wow..I do sound desperate..

BUT if you DO have someone like that in your life on a daily basis..or even weekly where you can go see them whenever you want n not feel like you're invading their space or whatever and they don't mind but instead are welcomed warmly then I must say you are lucky and don't take it for granted.

For now..I will cherish the friends that I have...Not CLOSE friends to the degree..but friends where I meet up with once a month or ever so often. I will keep that going =).

Perhaps one day I can find someone that I can befriend and see not once a month or every few months..but someone who can be in my daily every day-to-day life. I really do hope that it is before I marry LOL (I'm worrying about my maid-of-honour! DURH).. I've got a few years...but times ticking!

Today my daily routine consists of:
TESOL course that I'm dying to complete...worked for days and only started on Module2
SCHOOL and always forever school work
DRAMA once in a while I catch up on Kdramas or shows (BIGbang theory, how i met your mother)
COOKING so I don't starve
MASSAGE taking advantage of my biweekly massages (woot insurance)

It is daym cold. -->
 


If you're korean you probably own one of these...
during the day in winter..I work with a small heating mat (or if I have my period..def helps) my controller is broken and stuck on high (wont budge!!) but it's actually warm so I'll do with..

At Night you turn on your heating mattress (which is actually a  sheet of mat that you cover your mattress with) and I happen to buy one with jade stones which is quite hard on the knees so don't go on my mattress one your knees!) and sleep warmly! GBYE...MY blog continues same day but next blog.
