Happy birthday W!!! (plus, i hate job appraisals)

weekend passes by so fast, as usual :( i'm realllllly depressed this week because i've been working my butt off for the whole month, leaving around 7-8 each night and not having much chance to go out and do my own stuff! especially since the stupid mb kept threatening my collegue and i with the job appraisal stuff, i was even more depressed. let's just say we were 'sacrificed' (in chinese 'eat dead cat') because the bb yelled at the mb and mb just felt he needed some people to put the blame on... it would have been ok if he didn't mention that 'job appraisals are coming up, and this is the type of thing that affects it'... what a 'fun cheung' (sorry.. typing at work so no chinese characters..) i mean... damn, since you wanted to be in charge of a whole department, you should also be able to take the blame for mistakes that _YOU_ made...

anyway, i got my stupid job appraisal reviewed today and, as expected, received all "B"s and "satisfactory"s. it was like reviewing my highschool report card, only worse because this guy doesnt' grade on how well you do your work, because he has no idea what ANY of us do, but on how much he likes you and how much you suck up to him~ but.. at least our company is doing well and my bonus should be not too bad, regardless of this *#*!?@'s review~
however, i'm a happy go lucky, easily satisfied, glass half full type girl so i expect myself to be better by the end of this blog entry haha..

so, aside from that horrible guy, i had an ok weekend where i got my lovely trench coat-ish item from the As Know As online order that micsis organized~ i love it so much! it's exactly the japanese style coat i wanted. i had a fantastic night at karaoke with a bunch of my collegues and ex-collegues (i wish that could have gone on for awhile longer :( ) and then met up with lg718 and dinb etc to have a drink at this lovely place by the harbourside in tst.

on sunday i went to do highlights with lg718 at HAIR since he needed a haircut as well. i love it! we had a lovely discount and i was able to choose haircolours that wasn't red and purple for once (everyone seemed to enjoy recommending those colours to me in the 10 years i've been dyeing my hair... it's like red/purple is ALWAYS 'in' for chinese people or something) and that were actually "in". copper + brown :D it's kind of not too noticeable, which is great since i wanted a subtle change, but it warmed up my face instantly! my black black hair added to my pale pale face (even paler from it being wintertime) made me look like a walking corpse at times ~_~;;

will take pics later to show ~ (i need to post a few pics of other stuff ~_~;;)

on a nice side note, some happy things are:
1. it's my birthday soon :D
2. birthday lunch, shopping and dinner on sunday
3. birthday dinner
4. guitar lessons XD i'm finally starting them this weekend!! i'm so glad i managed to find someone that i could trust (case's friend.. thanks so much case :D) and actually push myself to do something i've wanted to do for the past... 10 years (damn i feel old..)~
5. will start to look for various other classes to start :D any suggestions? i'm thinking of taking modern dance/jazz or something, and maybe another instrument as well~

current mood: still in a semi "i hate your guts and really want to kick your ass MB" type mood... but better XD as predicted~

PS: HAPPY BIRTHDAY W!!!! Hope you enjoy our birthday present and that you have an amazing birthday :D i miss you!!!!!
