Random Thoughts!

ONE: How would you feel about someone who is clearly trying to test your stress level! Like testing his/her limits until you burst!? I am kinda stuck in such situation and as much as I try to smile back and be nice... it is still getting into me?? :-S

TWO: How would you feel when someone comes to you with simple-answer questions... and like come to you without being courteous enough to ask...

"Do you have a minute?"

"Can I ask you a question?"

"Are you busy?"

No... they just come and expect you to drop all for you to be free to help them out!

THREE: And how would you feel when someone ask you to check on something that you agree to check... and in return when you ask them to check from their side on something similar but they say its not in their area! Or they cant!?

FOUR: And how about when you see people taking credit for things you've done... as simple as good deeds, nice gestures, or even some things you've done!?

FIVE: Now imagine all that happen when your....
Stress levels are already SO HIGH,
You have personal problems (related to family health issues), and
You're not sleeping much

I keep on smiling and doing the best I can... I believe in Karma! I really do! So dont mess with me! Oh and I hurt myself while carrying loads of paper, talking on the phone, and holding my bag while going down the stairs...... OUCH!

That Barista Hates Me!

The barista at the coffee shop where I work must hate me now! I have no idea why but he makes me laugh at his expressions! Be it facial or comments!!! (not the kind of laugh that would make me feel good, the other kind!) well anyways... I admit, I am mean to him in return.

Usually people would be happy and at ease when they get the barista familiar with their order... but sometimes the barista gives you some sorta hibee jeebees that you would not like! I know weird... but VERY true! He would laugh when I talk, and I mean when I talk to other people and not him... Say hello to me when he deliver coffee to my co-workers even when I am on the phone, or busy.. he have to make me look at him and say hello back! He would give some comments that I dont like trying to be funny when he is not! I mean... Not all barista have that Je ne sais quoi that makes a good salesperson! You know what I mean?


Incident One:
Me: hmmm can I have....

Incident Two (and I have switch my order to skimmed white mocha since incident one):

Me: I have the RIGHT TO! DONT I?

Incident Three (Today - with my co-worker)
Me: Can I have A caramel macchiato and a turkey ciabatta please
JF: I will have the submarine
Me: Separate checks please!
Barista: SEPARATE CHECKS???? (with a big exclamation mark on his face like WHY HOW COULD YOU ask for seperate checks??!?!!)
Me: Yeah!!!! SEPARATE CHECKS! Heehee why is this so surprising?
Barista: I entered both already
Me: Cancel one... its not the end of the world!!
Barista: OK (he gave me a look!)


Me and my JF were discussing why he was TOO surprised that we wanted separate checks..

Me: He officially hates me today! SEPERATE CHECKS!!
JF: hehehehe he is looking at you
Me: Let him look.... (sipping coffee) do you have ZAIN or KT MTCNet on your phone?
JF: Why?
Me: I still have MTC my sister got a new chip and it reads Zain

Another co-worker joins in and as I moved my phone fell on the floor so hard that the battery and cover fell off the phone (KARMA!!!!)

Me: Check this out! My chip is a classic... its too old!
JF: Its an antique hahahahahaha
SS: Let me see?
Me: I know! Its the very OLD logo.. not the mtc, not the mtc-vodafone... the one before that! The one with the Kuwaiti Map! (check attached picture above!)


OK.. enough said! BACK TO WORK NOW!

Why!! Whatta Morning!

This is one helluva morning.. It started with me waking up 10 minutes late –than my usual time- (and YES! 10 minutes makes a BIG difference, especially when I am carpooling with my sisters which we have been doing and rotating since we moved to our new house).


Well anyway, after I drop them off, I head to where I work, and there I was…. finding this amazing car parking spot, but there was a jerk parked next to it who opened his door SO wide to SHINE HIS SHOES!! I waited for about 20 seconds, he looked at me but didn’t move… instead he continued shinning his shoes like there was no tomorrow! I can't believe those people, I didn’t want to honk or get angry, so I parked elsewhere!!


I reached the elevator…. and there he was about 10 meters behind me. Normally I would press the "open door" button if I see someone approaching. In his case, I was not close to the button, and someone else in the elevator said to his friend; "Push the close button" they were laughing… apparently he was a friend of theirs and they were teasing him. He started running faster to the elevator, dropped something, and when he picked it up the door was closing.. I looked at him EXACTLY the same way he did when he was shinning his shoes!

Karma Rocks! LOL

Karma Rocks

"My Name is Earl"

Do you watch that show? I like it a lot.. it makes me laugh, I think its hilarious, plus I think Karma rocks! I love Karma, don't you? I found out that not so many people I know like this show... or at least not as much as I do! Interesting!!

Well... Karma is an action or deed understood as denoting the "cause & effect" cycle described in many philosophies such as in Hinduism and Buddhism. The effects of all those deeds are cumulative. It actively create past, present, and future experiences that consequently makes us responsible for our own life and the pain and/or joy it brings.

It is believed that the fruit of your actions are called Larma-phala, and that all living creatures are responsible for their actions and effects of those actions.

According to Earl, the main character in the show I love, Karma is about learning, changing, and understanding... becoming a better person and trying to make up for your past mistakes. Earl started it when he got a hold of the idea of Karma. To him, Karma is like a teacher that gives us painful lessons to help us grow better... Basically it is showing us that what comes around goes around.

So the show starts with Earl winning this lottery ticket for $100,000 and short after he lose it when he is hit by a car. While watching TV in the hospital he hears about Karma on the show "Last Call with Carson Daly". Now who could be dense enough to think that Karma is the brainchild of "Last Call with Carson Daly?" LOL. I love Earl! OK so then he make this list of of all the bad deeds hes done, and after few good deeds his $100,00 lottery ticket comes back to him! He then decides to use that money to cross out some of the bad deeds in that list.

Over all the show is super duper hilarious! Not really portraying Karma, but its a good laugh!
