New Haircut

Filled with regret!!
I regret going for a haircut after landing in Penang yesterday!

I should've waited; even though I needed a trim badly.
I just didn't expect the horrors of yesterday (old school) to come back and haunt me...because, I TRUSTED my hairdresser.

He made a mistake, I guess, most of the time, he's pretty accurate.
Somehow, yesterday, my hair ended up shorter than what I wanted.

I can't help sulking over it, I was upset but I didn't make him feel bad.
He blew it nicely for me to walk out of the salon; but I still wished it was longer.

Oh dear, this has relived my phobia of hairdressers and haircuts =(
I can't believe myself....

I was really down in the dumps last night; but then again, I kept telling myself, c'mon, is it really that bad?
Then I started thinking ways to cheer up myself and the positive ways to look at my haircut and myself in the mirror, listing all the good and lovely things about the haircut.

Seriously, it was tough, but after a while, I realized, "Hey, this haircut is kinda cute"
"It is different from my other hairstyles"
and the list goes on....

Well, I don't feel so bad now; although the dread do creep in occasionally =(

Anyway, there is nothing I can do at the moment, right? What's done is done, and what I need to live with is my choice, I can choose to be happy about it or brood over it until my hair grows longer which means I need to drown in misery for at least a month or two.

Nahhhh...life's too short for sadness and besides, being sad makes one grow older by years...

So, I am smiling, and yeah, it's starting to make me feel better.... =D

Do remind me to specify/emphasize that I just want a trim on my next trip to the hairdresser, though...=P

End of the year~

How time flies! It's finally the end of the year already...well, technically though not nearly YET

We are already in the 4th quarter of the year; and well, it seems to me that it's as good as the end already and I just love this part of the year...
I don't know when it first started but I guess we have all been mechanically programmed to the thought of holidays since our school days.
Remember how the longest semester break always seems to linger around the end of the year? I guess that's where it all started and that's why I am part of the statistics who just love year end for the holidays.

When it comes to the thought of holidays, it is all about relaxation, isn't it?
Hahaha...I start to imagine about vacations...
Yeah, the reason why it's imagination is because I am too swamped up with work these days to even take a day's off.

I was supposed to take next Monday/Tuesday off...well, take a little trip home and join my best mates for a slumber party (Halloween-themed) and then celebrate All Saints Day and visit my grandparents's cemeteries on All Souls' Day...yeah, all in one weekend.
I have yet to utilize 70% of my annual leave, and frankly, even I did not realize that I have not been taking leave this year!
Have I been that into my work?

I really need a vacation soon...I am in a vacation mood but yet at the same time, I am still thinking about my work so much...
I do need to be cautious about overworking, otherwise, I will be burnt out soon

But...again, holiday seasons are here...Halloween, Hanukkah, Thanksgiving...birthdays and yeah, Christ's birthday is coming soon too....oh, for the love of the holidays~

Not so bad, after all...

Things have been going good at the moment; well which is good as I have braced myself for the worst times.

Anyway, I guess this is the high tide times which I should be happy with; enjoying it and riding on the tidal waves of happiness and success.
Well, being the worry-wart me, I am still skeptical sometimes on the prospect of the looming bad times as well.
Perhaps I have been traumatized by some of the bad experiences?

Well, whatever, it seems that things are not looking that bleak anymore and I just need to learn to gear myself with the necessary equipment if the low tide is here again; anytime soon.

I am happyyyy...and yeah, it's good to be happy all the time...I like that!
Everything's fine now; except for the occasional hiccups in my sensitive health...and if you're one of those who's asking whether I am getting married, well, bin that...because we are talking about something else here =)

BE HAPPYYYY....I shall be.....as long as I want =D
A HUGE SMILE on my face, every day!
