Conceal Me UP

After 3 months of being attached to the clinic, and hoping that I can 'shake legs' during the Dec hols when there are not many patients, I have to go back to the main office. As in the words of Spongebob, 'tartar sauce!' or 'drats!' on dry land. I don't know what is going on back there. In short, there is no trust and like what al mighty supervisor threw into fits and almost shot us down with an imaginary machine gun yesterday, we brought this upon ourselves.


What the freakin' lot? Anyway, like what Donald Trump says, you're only an effective leader when you do you share of work even as a leader and after delegation and that you respect others how you want others to respect you. If one or two people can't get along with the leader, it's probably just their problem but if a majority of them (in this case, almost the whole entire office) are against you, there is one thing to say here: you're not effective because you have lost the support of the subordinates. 'Nuff Said. Out You GO.


While I hear from the people themselves that they are going to leave this company, this time I can safely say it's for the better. Even those who are supposedly in the 'safer zone' are planning to leave or have already left with upcoming a few more to go from my own group of people, so I don't know what the future hold for me. I do want to leave but I don't want to leave just like that without any form of job security. But I don't want to be tied down either because the last time I checked, I am not a school girl where my movements are being tracked down as if I am going for an escape through the exit anytime. If I want to do that, I'll be acting alongside Wentworth in Prison Break trying to decipher the escape plan on his tattooed body.


Look, I don't want to say who is at fault here such as who is the original source of problem here. People make mistakes but unfortunately, if you make a mistake here, you are labelled a bad employee even though you have a rather clean record prior to that. I mean, for all I know, we're in this finger pointing situation and Im stuck in it. For all I know, why should I stay in a place where it's not giving me any form of happiness?! And the saddest thing is that, I have been shifted to another zone where I'll entirely be without the company of the group of colleagues whom I've been together for the last four years. They're my backbone and now, Im just slumped against the wall not knowing where to go from here. Im just hoping that when I apply for a teaching job, I'll get shortlisted and I promise this time, I won't screw up the interview because now Im really serious. OH gawd..I don't want to be stuck in this for a long time.


Enough of the depressing thought. Now for the complete useless information like how horrible I can be when it comes to beauty. I think I bring shame to the female community whose main aim is to look good and the way things are going, I doubt it's for ourselves but the men. I guess coz I am not planning to look good for any guys out there to catch his fancy on me that maybe I slack? Or I just dont care? There's so many stuffs in the female magazines and goodness, most are beyond my comprehension like seriously, do I need so much gunk on my face?!!


But I did pick up a thing or two of which if you ask me now, it will be hard to squeeze out of my brain. Then ah, if there's one thing I did remember is the use of concealer to brighten up my eyes. I saw make up artists slather this on especially when they're doing a makeover and my gawd....the concealer almost covered the whole face as if they're so ugly, they need to conceal everything! What the hey..


My style? I use a concealer to cover my acne scars on my chin and it does work quite well and yesterday, I tried to conceal my rather dark eye rings. As you know, I have irregular sleeping hours which cause me to be tired and the air con in my work cubicle? Freezing. If it goes any lower, I think it will snow. But it ravaged my skin...okay maybe not ravaged, but it sucked dry the moisture off my face till I appear craggy looking. Oh, and the magazine is right, my eyes did look brighten up a bit! But I did not go OTT or over the top with the concealer but just a small swipe and then touch it up with foundation and there you go! Instant brightness...I didn't slather on the foundation all over my face except for under my eyes and under my chin and then also swipe on the blusher. I looked a bit better though..not sickly. I also used a refining serum as base to keep my face less oily and it looks matt which is good too.



I don't know about you...but to me, I guess this subtle change may have worked wonders for me.. Uhm, forget about the hair. It doesn't come with the whole 'makeover' package.





















These were taken yesterday..

One Step at A Time

Hello there It has been a while, right? I used to treat this blog as a place for me to rant, talk about nonsensical things and interests that, when I think back about it, were pretty cringeworthy. But it was part of the process of me growing up and navigating through my life which is full of ups and downs, just like the tidal waves. I still need a form of outlet to write out my thoughts and I have been journaling for the last few years. At first, I was still writing nonsense, or simply writing about how my day went, but I try to make it a more conscious journalling where I will write about things that I can take lessons from or to reflect on. So how has life been for me? Well, I no longer am running an online shop where I used to do customised cards and then just specializing in box cards. I do want to have an online business, preferably one I don't have to travel to meet people.  If you read my last post about being zen, I think I have 'tripled' the amount of zen inside of...

Listen to Me

It kinda irks me when I am trying to express an opinion or sharing a piece of knowledge but it's met with strong objection or Im being cut half way before I even finished. I mean...come on...does it hurt to actually listen first, doesnt matter if u agree or not? Yes I know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but it's frustrating because I feel like a sore loser. That sort of conversation is actually begging to be turned into some huge argument if I am equally annoying and equally strong headed as well. But I dont want to do that especially if they are my friends. Then again, I am subjected to being called a wimp or somebody who cant stand up strong against what she believes in or her own opinions. That will sorta give the person a sense of pride for getting a landslide victory. At first I used to think that hey, maybe the person has a point and I am wrong. But come to think of it, that's bull! It's one thing not to argue and another thing to let ur own opinions b...

Ray of Light

The act of falling in love. Very subjective and it also depends on the object you desire. Well, if it is the 'whoa mama!' sort of hunk or good looker, then yours truly has fallen in love many times over and over again. But a guy who has stolen my heart for good..well...that has yet to happen. But let's not talk about my non existent love life. Let's just ponder over the act of falling in love. From what I have observed through several tv shows or even movies, I gather that well..not everyone is so lucky to have fallen in love at first sight. It takes time, and maybe it will even take boyfriend after boyfriend or girlfriend after girlfriend before reality smacks your face and you end up with your very first boyfriend (gasp!). What a truly merry go round. Hey, it happens. Because we make mistakes and we are too blind to notice how someone can truly bring you happiness by their sheer volumes of care and concern for you. In the midst of crisis, a ray of light shines through...
