what pain really meant





what pain meant up til i was seven.
pain was when i tried riding the bicycle and fell down.
pain was when mummy would'nt buy me sweets to eat.
pain was when i fell down and scabbed my knee.
pain was when mummy punishes me when i was naughty.
pain was when my lil cousin sis bit me outta nowhere til i bled.
pain was when my cousin bro took his new toy riffle and whacked my head with it.
*
what pain meant until i was twelve.
pain was when teachers scolded me and made a fool out of me.
pain was when i changed schools and had to make new friends.
pain was when i got scolded for saying bad words that i didn't know the meaning of.
pain was when i started realising that people weren't all nice.
pain was when i fell down and friends laughed at me for it.
pain was when i realise that i had people who really hated me.
pain was being compared to people you can never be as good as.
*
what pain is since twelve.
pain is knowing that life is short and people around you actually leave.
pain is knowing that love isnt always reciprocated.
pain is seeing dreams and fairytales fall apart.
pain is hurting friends and making mistakes you can never undo.
pain is when "friends" say untrue stuffs behind your back.
pain is knowing friends change and sometimes walk out the door, never to come back.
pain is feeling not loved enough.
pain is loving someone who would never love you back the same way.
pain is getting a really bad result.
pain is feeling never good enough.
pain is the inability to forgive or forget.
pain is being replaced or the fear of it.
pain is feeling lonely
pain is having to let go.
pain is when close friends turn their backs on you when you need them the most.
pain is when change happens when you're most comfortable with the present.
pain is when you realise "forever" isn't as long as it used to be.
and pain is..
knowing that you're in pain..
but could do nothing about it..





people, this is just a random emo post=) was feeling kinda emo a while ago..but im fine now...no worries=)

Timing


In life as in art,
some endings are bitter sweet,
especially when it comes to love.
Sometimes fate throws two lovers together,
only to rip them apart.
Sometimes the hero finally makes the right choice
but the timing was all wrong.
and as they say…
Timing....is everything.
*
so i was talking to pat online and the topic of bad timing came up.
about how two people can totally be in love
but not be able to get back together because of the bad timing.
or how one person can never be with someone new because of the bad timing too.
bad timing because the person has not moved on,
or maybe bad timing because the person is not ready yet.
*
but no matter how things may turn out...
i still think everything happens for a reason.
the way pat says and i quote
'there must be a reason why people in your past don't make it to your future.'
if things were meant to happen now, it would.
if it wasn't, maybe it will in the future.
everything has its own time.
and if something is meant to be,
whats yours will ultimately be yours one day.

oh~what a FREAGGIN day!!!!!!!

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*I FREAGGIN SCREWEED up my first day at work!! *
TODAY...
i woke up at around 8 freaggin am,
freagginly ate breakfast,
tidy up the freaggin mess i made ( was expecting a roomate),
freagginly woke Sheirly and Chloe up,
freagginly showered,
changed into my freaggin and dorky uniform,
combed my unfreaggin hair,
tied my unfreaggin hair,
wore my freaggin socks and shoes..
by the time im all set..
it was freagginly 11.30am..
GREAT!..i was all happy and excited for work!
and started heading towards FREAGGIN Gristmill (my station!)
UNfortonutely...
i forgotten where my freaggin workplace is
i thought i freagginly remembered..
its definitely inside somewhere in that freaggin cowboy town
damn! this place is like a freaggin maze
everywhere looked the same
and after half an hour..
i realised..
..
..
..
..
I WENT TO THE FREAGGIIN WRONG DIRECTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it was the opposite direction from where i was standing....ah my effing goodness!!
so..i turned back...
and walked the other freaggin way...
hallelujah..
im in cowboy town now..
MANA TAU..
i freagginly got lost again...
and spend the next 20 minutes asking around for freaggin directions..
but almost everyone shook their heads..
nobody knows where that freaggin place is!
and then..
i freagginly bumped into an old guy with an id card...
Great!..
a senior employee..
he must've been around here for a freaggin lonnnnngggggggggg time
i was ecstatic..
maybe he knows where that freaggin place is
i went over and asked..
and took a clearer look at his id while he was telling me where to go
*JOHN HILDERBUNDT*
then it dawned on me...
...
....
..
..
...
....
..
isnt that the CEO HERE??!!
i instantly remembered people telling me that there'll be people from the top patrolling around like undercover cops to catch idling employees
Oh what a freak?!
however..
i kept my cool..
and stayed calm..
in case my nerves gave me away..
so..i thanked him...with a smile of course
and briskly walk away from that spot..
and tada!!..
im there!=)
BUT!!!...i was an hour late..
suppose to clock in by 12 noon....argh..
fortunately,
not only was my supervisor cute,
but he was understanding too...
he totally understood my predicament and did not reprimand me=)
hence..i start my first day..=)
IT was cool at first
since i only mopped the floor and wiped a few cabinets
untill they put me in charge of the cash register.
the 1st few hours were in total chaos (like i expected)
i kept keying the wrong amounts,
and slowed down the whole transaction processes..
poor customers had to wait to get their change back
and i could smell impatience from some of them..oops~
well.those were just minor stuffs..
here comes disaster...
after we closed the shop,
each cashiers were suppposed to calculate the amount of money inside their cash register and compare them with the total amount on their respective receipt..
there will always be slight deviations..
which is totally normal..
but guess how much mine differed from the amount shown on my receipt..
USD$ 39.98!!
argh....and my supervisors spend almost 2 hours figuring out the cause behind it!
and thats exactly how long i felt bad about it...=(
finally..the verdict is out..
there were some miscalculations while i was trying to void the errors i made in the cash register
and all employees aren't suppose to make amendments themselves...
they should always get their supervisors to aid them..
argh..i panicked la..what to do?..
but i anticipated all these to happen
to someone as muddleheaded as me..=(
and the worst part is..
I ONLY WORK FOR max 6hrs per day..
meaning..
wages after minusing taxes and expenses..
are way lesser now=(
oh~ what a day..
and tomorrow's another one..zz..

*

i've always fret about not having an english name which would be easier to remember and less prone to any sort of mis-pronounciations..

and yesterday at training class,

one of my instructor mispronounced my "shilei" as "silly"

and BANG!!

the whole class started laughing...

though i felt extravagantly embarassed

somehow, i managed to leave an impression on others

and that helps me make new friends much much more easier and faster!!=)

so..i guess once in a blue moon,

something horrible like this may have a positive side effect too ?..
