To Hold, To Give Or To Keep

If you recalled a few times in my past postings, I've talked about my interesting experiences at the Hair Salon I frequent. 

Recently, there was another interesting experience and this was from the boss herself. To boost her employees' productivity, in the past 10 months Ms KC has organised a number of talks for her employees - some on increasing productivity, a number on motivational talks, a few on managing their personal finance, and one or two on life philosophy. I agreed, and I believe it's good idea to bring all of her employees together. The sense of togetherness and teamwork can be fostered through these gatherings too. 

Around 12.45ish two afternoons ago, my hair was messy + greasy and definitely in need of a good hair wash before I can face the world proudly again (for your info: I found it difficult to wash and blow my long hair myself, it will take more than 45 minutes to wash and dry partially). 

After parking my car and rushed in to the salon, the shampoo girl (SG) told me: "Er, I can wash your hair but I don't think I can blow the curls you want". 

Pancakeism: Where is A? 

SG replied: She's attending meeting now. Boss called 30 minutes ago. 

Pancakeism: Oh! A normally texts me if there's a meeting or training.

SG: Hmm, she was told last minute too. In fact, three customers came before you and left because A won't be back until 5pm today.

Pancakeism: Ok, I will go to your other branches. Can you arrange an appointment? 

SG: In fact, all our Senior Hairstylists are attending that meeting until 5pm. 

I left the salon with my messy + greasy hair, and went to another salon instead without wasting my time further. 

On the way back to my office around 1.45ish, I was thinking: Why on earth organise a meeting/training at times when you know many customers may visit? Increase productivity or losing opportunity?? 

My hairstylist called me this morning, and I asked about the meeting/training. She told me: My boss talked about her aspirations and goals. She was the speaker herself this time. However, there were too many new terms that I heard for the first time and actually I don't quite understand many of the things she said. 

In life, we always want many things our way. In Economics, all students are taught in their first lesson: Limited Resources, Unlimited Wants. But, I believe, most important lesson of all: We must prioritise on what we actually/exactly want, when objectives are not clearly defined we will lose more than we earn. 

Can't Get You Out Of My Mind

And, that's irritating ...

Hahaha ... this comic reminds me of Kylie Minogue's "Can't Get You Out Of My Head". I recalled when I was studying in Brisbane few years ago, this song was playing non-stop everywhere when it has just released. Despite I am not a big fan of Kylie (I can't stand her what-media-tagged-as-sultry-voice, sorry!), I must admit this is a fun dance song with catchy chorus and addictive beat. Now, Jason Mraz's "I'm Yours" seems to have the same irritating yet addictive beat impact on me. It was fun listening to it for the first 2-3 times, after a while especially after you have started to understand what he was trying to say and fully deciphered every word in his song, his "loved love loved love loved" just made my nerves jump. Hahaha! 

Is It So?

I Believe I Can Fly

I believe I can fly

I believe I can touch the sky

I think about it every night and day

Spread my wings and fly away

I believe I can soar

I see me running through that open door

I believe I can fly

I believe I can fly

I believe I can fly

Fear builds fortresses;

Hate builds walls;

Love builds bridges between us ALL.

When Nancy Met Alien

Plus 25

I found my left eye vision slightly blurry in the past one week, and decided to pay my optometrician a visit this afternoon. I suspected it was due to my astigmatism, it could probably has increased to +125 for my left eye. 

Guess what? I was wrong. 

After checking my eyesight and had read "D, E, F, G, T" more than thrice, she advised me to add +25 to my left eye. 

I asked: What does it mean by +25? 

She answered: Long-sightedness.
