New Friends

So I’ve been raising an orphaned kitten and it just passed away today. The kitten passed in its sleep and it looked very peaceful. At first I thought it died from asphyxiation but it showed no signs of so. It must have been something else. It seems like a lot has been going on – school,  family, and a whole lot of stress just from thinking itself.

The reason for the title because I feel like I’m not practicing one of the things I believe. I know they saw that you are the friends that you keep and if that is true, am I a part of the superficial average looking Asian group that happens to be an immigrant who likes to break promises and has no honor? Am I a drug addict who runs around doing stupid acts that jeopardize everyone in my social circle? Am I a cheap skate who throws a bitch fit for having to drop off someone who really needed a ride? No, I’m none of these nor am I a person who is trying to hold on to their lost adolescence, a time when they weren’t fat and pathetically seeking sympathy about it. I don’t have to lie about my income, my tax return, or how much I spend because I don’t give a shit if other people can’t afford it and I can.

Tangent subject: I just hate it when people try to make you feel bad for being a tad bit hedonistic and generous with my spending. You have your finance issues and that’s your problem not mine. I shouldn’t have to hold back on my goals and wants just because your standard of living is different from mine. I don’t wave it around but it just seems like they are always on your back about these types of things whether they are mentioning about the starving children or this and that. I have no problem donating to actual people as opposed to actual companies because honestly, I don’t know where that money is being put into.

I guess I’m ranting because I’m tired of my so-called friends. Whether things get better or I turn around and recycle them, only time will tell. Maybe they’ve changed. Maybe I’ve changed but I don’t think it really matters because it’s time for a change. Maybe not having friends was a better investment after all. Tired of all the lies, the backstabbing, the flakes, and the stupidity.

I think I should be focusing on myself in the first place.

What a Day

Here is another rant.

I didn’t get to do what I originally intended to do today. I hate it when that happens because it makes me feel so unproductive. Sigh … I was supposed to get a hair cut, see my optometrist, look up tuxedos for Jackson, and buy body wash and all I’ve managed to do was get the body wash.

I went to Macy’s today to look for children’s clothing and being quite lost I wandered around the store, finding everything but what the one department I wanted. I passed by the shoe department and I honestly wish I hadn’t. One of my sandal straps broke about a week ago and I stopped by the Coach stand of the shoe department. Not even a second later, I was approached by an associate who asked me if I need any assistance. I kindly told her that I wanted to browse since I had just gotten there. She walks off without a word towards another associate and in their exchange, she tells the other one, “What a rude-ass bitch!”. I mean come on, I wasn’t even three feet away!

Honestly, I cannot believe people like her even have a job with the way they judged and treat people. At this point, I don’t know whether I should call customer service and have her dealt with. I’ve never treated a retail worker or any stranger badly and this crap happens. I’ve sent Macy’s a complaint and I don’t want their gift cards and whatnot.

However …

My day went pretty well once  I stepped into Bath & Body Works. For the longest time, I kept forgetting that there was a store in the mall I usually frequent but now I know. People were nice there and the only thing I can say if to never a judge a person based on first appearances.

 

Looks cannot differentiate the customer who buys your product in bulk without a qualm and the customer who nags and complains because of a dollar price different. Needless to say, I walked out of BBW with enough body wash for a while.

I hope your day has been a lot better than mine. Hoping to get my hair cut tomorrow. I want thick bangs like Park Bom from 2NE1 and Aural Vampire!
