colleagues

I was finally able to make time to get myself a haircut this morning. 2 months have passed since my last one and my hair was like a bush growing out of my head and was quite annoying. As a result, my haircut today was one of the most satisfying ones I've had in my life. Plus, the beauty salon was very vacant today for some reason and I didn't have to wait at all for my turn there.

After that, as always, I had to go to work; movie theater for today. When I checked my shift chart prior to my departure, it showed me a dreadful reality though. My shift today overlapped with two of the colleagues who I dislike the most. It turned out that one of them was absent today due to sickness, but the one I hate the most was there and what's worse was that his shift was extended due to the other one's absence. Nonetheless, I guess I handed it well, avoiding him as much as I could, doing a lot of procedures that he usually don't do.

As a result, I didn't suffer as much as I expected to which was a great thing. It's not like I began hated him first. It was him, who began saying stuff to me that annoys people in most cases. Anyway, the people who came into replace him after his shift were much more moderate and were quite enjoyable working together.

No, I usually don't dis people behind their backs online, but this basically is the only thing I thought up of that will give me significant amount of material to write in English. Oh yeah, cherry blossoms are in full bloom everywhere. It looks like the picture above. Pretty, isn't it??

solitude

I haven't been interacting with people lately probably because I am way too busy working and also because of the nature of my new job, where you are assigned an office cubicle, typing in ordering forms, face-to-face with an LCD display. This could be the root cause of my solitude, although I'm not in a desperate need for someone either.

So far, I've found out that I've got work 6 days straight and it could be 7, depending on the outcome of my shift for April. Totally inappropriate and unlawful, but I can't complain really, because I work in 2 different places.

I did have some interaction today though, at the movie theater. I met some newbies there who came into replace the seniors who are leaving after their graduation. For some reason, I believe I have written this before here, but I don't really care.

After work today, I mailed my friend who I had been planning a day out during our spring recess, but was unable to due to our unavailability. I hope this plan will work out in the end.

What is with all this meaningless gibberish...hmmm. I guess I don't really have anything to write about. Perhaps, tomorrow could be a better day.
