Funny that I am writing this at school where most of my time is usually spend in class. Reason for this is that there is no class today. Brilliant me came here without checking the bloody student portal. Only realizing my folly when I thought that there must be a problem with the bloody screen when my class didn't appear on it. Yes. I admit. An act of Sotongness on my part.
Seems like I just can't strike this nickname off me. Coming to think of it, it is hard to change people perception of you once they got to know you. Even more so in this fast moving society where most of us love watching Harry Potter or Lord of The Rings on the big theatre but shiver in cold when the original book is thrown in front of them. We tend to judge people by their cover, not their content.
First impression counts for double in times like this now. I had been learning it the hard way. I got to admit that I am an easy going kind of person. I think this might have contributed to almost everyone who know me to try shitting on my head. Well, not literally but I am quite sure you guys get what I mean.
I did tell myself repeatably that I must look and behave seriously no matter what the occasion is. It might sound easy but honestly it is tough. Life is tough. To try to make it tough for you and the person around you just isn't my idea of living.
I tried to be professional in my work. I believed that my customer trust that I know what I am doing but it seem that it is hard for them to treat me as a professional. It do get onto me at times. To them, I am just the guy next door(not the looks I got to admit) who they can easily get over to help them out.
This might also be the reason why people in my company also don't treat me with the respect I think I deserve. Mainly my boss who I doubt will ever read this. I wonder out at times if I am not hardworking enough or the work I do is not of value. A pay increment of 600 after 4 years of working in the same company speak volumes of the respect my boss is giving to me.
Well, I got to log off now. Suayness hit you when library close early just when you bloody need the PC. See u again. Blog!!
