It's A Conspiracy!

I'm telling you, it is a conspiracy that I am not fated to ask her out. She, you know who. Conspiracy because everything that I did today leading up to the crucial moment always has something happening that prevented me from going the last mile.

Fresh in the morning, i shaved. But I didn't noticed I missed a spot until I felt it when I was stroking my chin in deep contemplation. First bad omen.

Then, as I went to wash up, I noticed the time; 5:15 pm. Ten minutes earlier than usual! That alone should've told me what I had planned is not going to go as planned. Second bad omen.

Finally, after class, which is the time I plan to take her aside and ask her privately; as opposed to announcing to the whole class; to go out, along came Polly! No, not Polly Polly. Just some student asking her questions about today's lesson for so long until I have no time to ask her mine before the night guardsman kicked me out of the class. Damn, why did the girl want to ask the questions, of all nights, she chose tonight! Arghh! Spoil my plan only. I was so psyched! I was ready! I was defeated by a cheesecake of coincidence called fate!

This Thursday still on. Lucky for me, I got backup plans.

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain...

I yelled at my first official complaint tonight. Not half an hour ago. Damn, that makes me feel bad. I mean, it makes me shakes all over, and I don't mean in a good way. Shaking with furious energy is a likely label.

Makes me miss my sweet Takamatsu-sensei right now. Sigh...weekdays are the worst. I have to endure 5 days of boredom before I can see her again. Infatuation or crush? I wanna know...

Learning Japanese now has become sort of like a semi full time job now that it is getting harder, with not just the basic hiragana. It's katagana and kanji thrown all together. I'm having a hard time trying to absorb it all. Maybe I should ask one of the clever students to tutor me? Maybe even walk her home in the rain.

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain...

Grinding

Have you ever played any online game before? Specifically Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game like Ragnarok Online or 9Dragons? Well, I never actually played RO before, but 9Dragons, well...what can I say. I am addicted to it. Even now, in between typing this entry, I am actually playing it.

What did I want to whine about today? After the fiasco with the complaint letter a few days ago, is this: I am levelling and grinding, but my level still stays the same. Why? That's because I want to live my life, not playing 24/7, unlike some of my friends here.

If I devote as much as them to playing exclusively one game, then by God, I will be the best already, but did I do that? NO! Why? That's because I'm playing another massively popular game, Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium War. So, playing two games at once, and slot in a couple of movie sessions, where the heck do I get the time to play 9Dragons full time?

Complaint

I wrote my first complaint letter to a major corporation just now. My grouse was the frequent and extremely frustrating disruption of their service since the start of last month. Maybe even earlier for all I know, but of which I remain blissfully unaware until I stayed later than my usual bed time.

That's when I found out I have a problem, a really big problem. The first call for servicing did not do a good job of sniffling out the problem, and appointment was made for a second appointment, the earliest of which was available only in one week time. Not even that, sacrifices had to be made to apply for emergency annual leave and stay home to wait for the tech support to resolve my problem. What a hassle!

It was cleared, and declared solved...for the first few days. Then things gets "interesting" after that. Disruptions after disruptions followed. It's like a plaque, devouring my spare time pulling my hair out trying to figure out what the heck is the problem, until last night, when the latest disruption broke my back. I wrote the letter today, not an hour ago, after another series of disruption every five minutes. I wasn't being kind in my letter. I am not about to let some major corporation go just because they are top dog. Ohhh, NO! I will chase them and bite them in the arse until they solve my problem permanently... you know the rest.

If you know who or what I'm talking about, keep a low profile. We don't want to "embarrass" them now, do we?

So long...

Wow! It has been a while since I last came here ain't it? Well...thought of alot of things to talk about here but due to the downed connection to the life-giver; The Internet; I didn't, and since I didn't write any of those thoughts down, I've forgotten what I was going to write, so, here it is, nothing. Zilch. Nada.

But I have a discussion with a friend recently, and well, she said one thing that rings true all the time; "Life is complicated." Her exact words. I know what she means. In making one decision, in fact before even making them, there are already consequences to be dealt with. What to do but to go ahead and make those decisions that needed to be made, and takes care of the consequences when we cross that bridge. Funny, this line has been used by another friend of mine when I floated an argument about what to do when we reached our objective of our current project. You see, we're raising funds to upgrade our old alma mater see, buying new furnitures and stuffs, painting the walls and the whole nine yards.

We have a target amount of fund collection that we hope will be fulfilled by this month's end, and I raise a question: What if we exceed that amount? What do we do with them? Well...what answer I get, you knew.

Anyway, it's getting late. See you again tomorrow...if I'm here.
