    11/20/2007 - The Jobless and Hopeless

    But hey hey hey, not for long!! Ok, it had almost been a month of slacking around. Sometimes I am rather enjoying it but sometimes I become restless. And my daily routine is like wake up, watch the tv with my sis and just hang around. Go online. Eat. Sleep. Read. And this continues for the like past few weeks (?). And today, I spent the late morning ironing, doing laundry and watching TV. And catching an episode of Sex and the City. And now, writing this entry. And waiting for Lizzie Mcguire the movie to load.

     

    I was supposed to make one VERY important phone call which I procastinated till now. I am very bad.

     

    Anyways, for the coming week, I would be working part time. Till the 8th. Get some dough. In fact I was lucky there was vacancy-like who would actually employ you for a short notice and for a short while? And after that, starting to become a corporatefreak. That's right, a corporatefreak. I finally had to surrender and become one. OMG. I am getting old. Haha. But hey, I guess its time to grow up and start being serious.

     

    OK OK, now I sound very old. Stop it.

     

    On a random note, I had my hair cut last Saturday and rather pleased about it. And shh...I got a student's discount. Now I wonder the essence of a truly good haircut. So what are the factors that truly determine one?Lets examine the following:

     

    1. The cost- the more expensive it is the better?
    2. Is washing the hair before the cut makes any different?
    3. Gender of the hairdresser?

    In answering the above questions :

     

    1. This is rather subjective. My Jean Yip haircut- I did not really like it. Hairdresser was like....not customer oriented. There was once I had a cropped haircut, and people actually commented that it was nice. That, I believe, was one of the most expensive. But last Saturday's haircut, priced at $25, I had to admit I rather like it. The lady shampooed my hair well, great head massage and no fuss. Like some hairdressers go through your hair and said you need this product, that product bla bla bla. This did not. But I ended up buying a the shampoo and tonic and I think it is working well.
    2. I hate it when your hair is cut and it falls down on your face. And last Saturday, none of it ended in my face. Must be the effects of a wet hair. Wet hair sticks together and therefore would not be flying off. Dry hair, on the hand, tend to fly away and fall on your face. Period. I shall have my hair washed next time.
    3. Gender of hairdresser- this again is another subjective one. But I find it very odd and wierd when the guy cutting my hair is approximately my age or younger. Like do you let your other guy friends touch you around your face? Dang! But they cut ok. Like oh-so-gentle that sometimes I was bewildered like how can a guy be oh so gentle right? Or maybe its just me. For ladies, they cut ok-ok.

    Well, that is my take on hair cut. Well, take note that my definition of an expensive haircut is not the same as yours. $10 is the cheapest I had and $35 was the most expensive I had. I have short hair and I always had it short. And I think I have to cut my hair each month, because it will grow crooked and I will look messy.

     


    So, for this balance of Wed, Thur, Fri, the social calendar looks like this:

     

    Wed: Make the IMPORTANT phonecall, Do that IMPORTANT visit, then down to sign and IMPORTANT document (but the 3 IMPORTANT stuffs do not relate to one other), meet the Aunt to do some shopping at Queensway and collect some CDs.

     

    Thu: I start to part time work.

     

    Fri: Work


    I guess I am rambling rubbish due to lack of brain activity. Haha.
