I am good girl

After a funny philosophical post,
I've decided to go back to my normal boring post.


First, I have to show you this photo.

All I can say is 我接受不到咯……


If you can't tell what is wrong different,
I dyed my hair.


I haven't seen myself with dark coloured hair for a few years,
and now suddenly I have this dark hair and 


I really can't get used to it.


The colour comes with a twist though...
*suspense music playing*


But I'm not gonna post photos of the twist this time.


All I can say is Miss LS will totally go
"yer... so lala"
and all I'm gonna say is 
"lalalalala~~" =p


Next,
I am gonna show you this photo.


Yes,
it's a cube.


Ok,
it's not a cube.
It's THE cube.


This 3x3x3 cube was my best friend for two days.
After the two days,
I have finally mastered the way to solve the cube!


Muahahahaha! *continues to echo*


WHO'S THE HOT NERD NOW!!


Muahahahaha!


Anyway,
next.


I have been hired!! Yay!!


I am now officially a part time writer.


I can't do this job as a permanent job,
but I seriously learnt a lot.


I have been working for about 3 days,
and I've been writing about things that I normally don't come across.


Jobs just come rolling in.
It's just a good thing I'd like to share.
^____________^


that's what J_Fish has to say~ Au Revoir~


p.s. electric heaters are so interesting to write about. 
*rolls eyes*


XD



To learn or not to learn?



Just came back from a drinking (non-alcoholic) session with my buddies.
Dawn, Mr D and Bryan.


The reason I don't say Mr D's name
is I can never remember if it's Darrick,
or Derrick,
or Darick,
or Derick.
--_______________--lll
(ok, it's totally not the last one)


So yeah,
Mr D is way easier. =)


Anyway,
we talked about relationships
and the "I dun wanna get married" topic resurfaced.


Dawn and Bryan are in (two different) relationships 
and Mr D is like the master of relationships
(but he's just is taking a holiday right now)


So I sorta got gang raped without the rape.
wth.


Anyway,
They used this metaphor,
you know the one about rocks and diamonds that people like to use
(for some reason... which I never figured out).


They said: (well Bryan started it)
"you're looking for a diamond, but diamonds don't just lie around and wait for you to pick them up. 
When you look around, 
all you see are stones.
But if you pick one of the stones,
and start cutting it and polishing it,
you might find that that stone is actually a diamond in disguise."


Ok, I paraphrased.
(of course I paraphrased!!)


Then they said:
"If you took a stone and didn't really take time to polish it,
you wouldn't know if it's a diamond. 
You might have missed the diamond you have always been looking for."


And then Mr D took one of his relationships as an example:
He had two choices. (past tense)
The party girl,
or the good girl.


He, being the dare devil,
took the party girl,
because he believed that he could turn her into the good girl
and have the best of both worlds.
(sounds like a chic flick huh)


He was wrong.
She didn't live up to his expectations and he ended it.
(Because of other reasons too)


I have no idea why he used this example 
when they were saying that I should give people time and chances.


He just proved that even though he picked a stone
and tried to change it into a diamond,
if it's a stone, it's a stone.


Besides,
I have high expectations because I learn from other people's experiences.
What I look for in a guy
is just what other normal girls look for,
with some preference of my own of course.


I say I learn from other people's experience
from articles,
from stories,
from gossip and the other whatevers.


And from there,
I determine what kinda guy I don't want to be involved romantically with.
Because I know if I get into this situation,
I'll send up the same as the experienced people from which the stories came from.


Like I've said a hundred times,
if you get to choose between a stone and a diamond,
which one would you choose?


Well,
since we're talking about stones,
to me,
let's say to me all people are precious stones
(because stones and diamonds are just discrimination and unfair)


Let's say I'm looking for a ruby,
I pick up a stone,
and start polishing it,
and it turns out that the stone is a sapphire.
No matter how hard I polish,
cut, clean it,
it will always be a sapphire.


Make sense?


I just want a diamond,
so I search for diamonds.
Rubies will always stay as rubies,
and sapphires will always be sapphires.


I set my target and try to achieve it.
If I get it,
GREAT!!
If not,
well I'm always prepared to be single.


Why should I settle down with a sapphire when I want a ruby?


For those who still believe that after polishing a stone,
you might find your diamond,
here's my questions,
how long should you polish it to find out that it actually have been, is, and always will be a stone?
How long should you waste your time before figuring out the ugly truth?


What if you polished the stone for let's say 3 years and decide that it's a stone,
you throw it away without knowing that you're just 0.000000000000000000000001mm away from finding out that that stone really is a diamond,


and the next person comes,
scratches off the surface,
and (voila!) finds  the diamond that you missed out.
You've done all the hard work,
and others took the prize.


If there are people who polish stones,
there surely are diamonds that are ready to be picked up.


Here's the thing:
Are you willing to polish the stones and find that they are not the precious stone that you want and get hurt in the proses?
Or would you rather waste time not doing anything and wait for a precious stone to fall into your lap?


then they came up with a game metaphor: (boys will be boys)
"being in relationships are like collecting XP (Experience points) 
The more you collect,
the bigger your chances of becoming successful"


that's what J_Fish has to say~ Au Revoir~


p.s. FYI, I've never rejected being the stone that needs to be polished,
it's just that not a lot of people (believe me when I say not a lot) wants to polish me.




Ok, that sounds wrong. =P

This unchangeable feeling






I hate this feeling.

When I need someone and no one is around.
When there are so many people around 
but no one has time for me.

I hate this unchangeable feeling,

Emo me aside,
Today I don't feel like doing anything,
I just wanna lay on my bed.

But wait....
that's what I've been doing for the past week.

Nothing was done.
Other than house chores and cooking,
I spent almost all of my time sitting on my bed
in front of my laptop. 

Something interesting finally happens,
and no one has time for me.

that's what J_Fish has to say~ Au Revoir~

p.s. The picture was the second attempt for the Maybelline contest.
Wish me luck. =)

I am...

I am employed.
I am.
By my parents.
I am unmarried housewife.


Had a crazy day yesterday.
Started slow and steady.




 Simple breakfast is love. ^___________^
Freshly squeezed orange juice, fried egg and toasted garlic bread.


After that,
started my daily routine of job hunting
and found a writer job.
Part time writer.


I sent an email 
and they replied.


I just handed in my first assignment,
and if they like it,
I'm hired.


YAY first.


Anyway,
been crazy looking for jobs recently.
I posted this status on fb
and my friend asked me how many resumes I sent.


Nil.


I can't find a job that has anything to do with French.


I'll keep on searching while doing part time jobs.


On a better note,
I've earned $6.06 for a translation job.


It's a FB app called Translation Cloud.
*Click on link after finish reading please*


This is not a scam,
nor is it a "ask your friends to join" scheme.


You don't need to ask others to join to earn.
It's simple job,
but there are not really a lot of things to translate.


It's more of a proofreading job.
You read what others have translated and choose the best translation.
If you find that none of the translations are accurate,
you type in what you think is correct.
Simple.


For those who have nothing to do
and would like to earn extra income,
check it out.


Remember,
it's not a "invite your friends" scam.
I already received my payment on Paypal.
^____________^


For more information,
visit the link.


Now I'm just gonna slap on my photo and call it a post.




that's what J_Fish has to say~ Au Revoir~


p.s If anyone has anything to translate or proofread, you can ask me. I charge RM0.03 per word. Even better if you have permanent jobs to offer.

Update!!

Didn't take any new photos recently so had to use old photo. wth. been taking more pictures of books than photos of myself. Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...... 




I've been MIA again,
coz I was busy being mom's not-so-little helper.


I have a few links in this post,
Please feel free to click on them. 
(AFTER you're finished reading the whole post)


Been cooking dinner for a few nights.
Been playing Professor Layton and the Myterious Village.
It's a game on Nintendo DS.




I finished playing the whole game a few months (or was it years) ago.
Now,
I found new stuff that I didn't find last time.
That's what I like about it.
Discovering something new everytime you replay.
(Unless you were very thorough the first time.)


It's a mind bending game.
A lot of puzzles to solve.
Very addictive.
Accordin to the game's record,
I've spent about 10hours playing it
and I still haven't finish.


BUT
I have a good explanation.
I was looking for jobs and sometimes doing house chores while playing. =p


Yes,
the job hunt is still on.
If any of you wanna hire me,
just leave a comment.
(Yes, I'm desperate. XD)


Anyway,
You should try the game if you have DS.
Not sure if it's available for other consoles though.


Back to the topic.
Helped mom do house chores like what a good daughter.


Proof.




Moving on,
