Plain White T’s – 1,2,3,4
——————————————————————-
You just know when he or she’s the one, the one that deserves to hear those three words that mean the most to you. It’s not the timing whether its the first second or twelve years later, its not what he or she looked like, where you met him or her… it’s just something inside of you that is just so sure, you guys are just meant to be, from that very first moment you knew to the oncoming decades..
He/She, is the one..the…one…you…love……………….
And now, all you need to do is say those three words, to tell them how you feel…………….So say it! SAY!IT! But you can’t/won’t. The reasons you justify are endless..and then, where do two people who are together go from there?? Why are we so bloody mental? Either we say those three precious words to someone who doesn’t really understand the gravity of that admission, or someone who takes it for granted, or it is to someone who’d use it against you to get what they want….. Life, and this world has lost the meaning of love….. and everything around me is just great big HUGE examples of it all….So taking all those things into consideration, am I to give up looking for that one true person that deserves to hear those three words from me? Someone who’d say them back to me, either at that time or hopefully a little later? I mean is that too much to ask for??
No, God and the Universe.. I want the love of my life, either this very second or in another decade or two… I will wait, I will wait to find someone worth hearing those words from me, someone who’d Give me more loving than I’ve ever had,
Make me feel better when I’m feeling sad, Make me feel good when I hurt so bad Barely getting mad, Give me more loving from the very start, Piece me back together when I fall apart and Tell me things you never even tell your closest friends…………. All because they love me, with no reasons attached.
Yes, its a melodramatic moment. I have so many friends who have supposedly found love, or atleast what they think is love, even what they think is their soulmate, or lover. But some of them or their significant others are mortified of saying such a simple phrase, or even hinting at an inclination of such things! And then there are those who are saying it to the wrong people, I’m just sick of it, sick of all these people ruining Love for people like me, people like me still waiting for someone.. when they have it all, why do they not realize how important and precious it is…
And this Rant is brought to you by The Plain White T’s – 1,2,3,4, a song thats currently on repeat, making me wish I was with someone somewhere grassy, in the shade.. probably under a large tree, like the mango tree in my grandmother’s garden, it had a swing there too….*sigh*

From That to This!
This post is so that everyone who signs a contract with their place of employment WOULD READ THE FINE PRINT! *Sob* I have unknowingly sold my trendy casual boho-chic soul to the corporate devil and I am NOT happy!! I used to have a wonderful arrangement with my boss for the past two years (when i worked part time), i was allowed to come in a respectable get-up of jeans, tee or shirt and flip flops and ANY accessories I chose, including nail polish (sue me, i’m emo/goth/gay – ITS MY RIGHT!); basically anything i want/wear to college as long as i looked decently cool/casual. I was quite thick to even justify it saying that unless she paid me for the required wardrobe change, it ain’t going to happen – besides you fuck with that outfit, you fuck with the (creative) work I do for you? I think that’s the justification many people in creative jobs use after all right? Unfortunately this year, I’m supposed to be working full time and that meant a contract renewal. *sigh* And the new one they drew up for me deemed that if I was to work at the newer (promoted and more powerful) position, I’m required to dress like I actually belonged there, and actually looked like I work here. Suffice to say, I was OUTRAGED! But what to do I guess… then I decided to investigate the terms of this clause a bit further much to my annoyance; here’s a gist of things I have to do/not do from the initiation of my probation period which starts today! APPARENTLY,
- I can wear only things that are approved as corporate attire; this doesn’t involve any personalizations such as skinny pants, skinny or loose knotted ties or a waistcoat… they actually forbid me for the last one. *twitch*
- I can only cut my hair a certain way and I am not allowed to color it or stuff *twitch x 2*
- I can’t pierce, print, scribble or tattoo myself anywhere that is visible *twitch x 3*
- I can’t wear accessories or paint my nails *twitch x 10,000,000*
I know Sri Lanka’s still stuck on that appearances thing and maintaining the conformity for the greater good? But WTF? This is almost communist!!! I’m soo looking forward to my 3pm meeting with my boss, this better be their 1990′s contract terms they still haven’t updated, and even if it wasn’t, the new pay hike better be worth this conformity they require of me, I’m anyway going to argue for at least a compromise!! When I signed the contract, I will work full time for them for two years and in accordance to the regulations, that means for the news two years I need to become a good little drone………Fuck! That!! I will – fucking – NOT COMPUTE!!! I haven’t fought my way into my sense of style and current company position to become one of them… And what the hell, if women can wear suits, why can’t men wear nail polish!? Sorry, the thought of not being able to be creative with the way I dress and choose to style myself is almost a hate crime and I take it very seriously…

Decisions by mihaibrrrr
Can anyone say FREEDOM?? Friday was officially the beginning of the 3 week break before our final semester; *dripping with sarcasm* I’m in for a lot of Fun!! NOT!! Oh i just cant wait, another 3 months of slaving over another 5 subjects, and thats besides the graduating projects we are supposed to work on…(which i still haven’t decided on what i want to do…EEK!!) Oh, and the additional two projects that have to be carried over because last term we had to ditch them to make room for a bitch of a client and his client-based project which we got NOTHING for!!! And besides, he made our soft-natured departmental head cry… (I totally trashed his name everywhere within my contacts! And I do have Contacts who can severely affect his chances of networking, and thats besides my mother..) LUCKY ME HUH?
Sigh… I have soo much work to this holiday, and thats besides thinking what i want to do with my final project. And the guideline was simply this: create for yourself a brief that fully optimizes what you learnt and apply it to a project either of fictional or a real life situation. Now this is really not a problem, coming up with random shit… but the thing is i need to have something SUPER DUPER AWSOME… not only to stand out, trash my competition, and totally impress the pants of anyone who hears about it.. its going to be on display for many would be international and industry contacts that will really cement my career.
*Pressure x 100* WHAT DO I DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO???
I had a super chat with a family friend last Christmas and i was telling her I wanted to do something that’d.. you know, something that’d make me stand out in my class (not that its a problem, in a class of over 20 i have competition only from 3 others) and at the graduating exhibition… and she was like do something that is a bit activism related? Like you know… AIDS? GLBTQ?? The logic being that it was material that any person can relate to our understand without having to be in Sri Lanka, or having to read to know about my project or what not??
But both those issues are sooo Cliche… I mean.. not that they aren’t really issues that need to be adressed in Sri Lanka. I was thinking of like Hate Crimes or Child Prostitution… or something like that…Or I could Ditch both and work on getting mine and blacky’s proposed business off the ground!?
*sigh* Decisions are best left to those who can make them??
Anyone who has suggestions… nows the time…

The Evil Administrative Assistant
View more for the rant, but the information behind it is that I was the victim of a rather fugly office feud a few days back and the following dramatic quip was an email i sent my boss shortly afterwards…(don’t look at me funny, hell hath no fury like ‘me’ scorned!!) of course I did embellish certain aspects of this story to my advantage, but the administrative assistant (i call ‘secretary’ to her annoyance now) bitch deserved it.
She was a freaking bully, and I didnt even dignify her presence with my recognition, I let her scream whatever she wanted and I let her go, only to have her boss informed of her miscreant behaviour the proper way.
Needless to say, I got my apology in more ways than one. And it was more satisfying to be ignored by her afterwards..
*smug smile*
The just will always be vindicated is what god says….. anyway, Enjoy.. I did.. and at 2100 words, its a gem i’m going to print out and save.. hehe, and my boss enjoyed the read apparently…hehe
_________________________________________________________________________________
Dear BOSS,
I don’t know what etiquette manual Your secretary follows in conducting her business as your secretary/personal assistant but the way she tends to ‘represent’ the CEO and Chairman of the The Companies Group is appalling and devastating, especially since she works directly as the executor of your authority.
Rather sympathetically to my future interactions with this company and you, I believed it was tactful I reacted rather calmly to her ranting, but I do believe she’s not supposed to behave like a lunatic with severe rage issues in lieu of Mr. U questioning her over the existence of a corporate profile.
Granted, I doubt I have the seniority to question her actions or the reasons behind them but she was more than happy to outline that I don’t have the ‘experience’ and ‘professionalism’ she boasts –correction: SCREAMS! For the benefit of a five mile radius!!- that she possesses and somehow I don’t manage to display in my dealings with my work.

I’ve heard of silly shit coming from HBO before, even watched it, but this! This is SAD!! But I can tell you a few friends of mine are going to LOVE this… *sigh* Idiotic men!!
HBO seems to be in a search to grasp for the viwer ratings, what with that show about mormons called Big Love, and that God awful story about vampires in Southern America *rolls eyes…* they can barely tolerate gays, what makes you think they’ll tolerate Vampires?? Hehe, maybe Rednecks taste like KFC compared to the Mcdonaldsish New Yorkers *lol*.

My sign of equality
This was a post i wrote for my tumblog, to close to my heart to abandon it over there, along with some others.. so, i re-post!
_____________________
I was up close to 12am *mock surprise!*, and happened to catch Larry King’s coverage of the Gay Marriage issue. A going-nowhere chat again with parties from both factions airing their views, the show ending with a pastor who led the conversation down the usual path talking about how the institution of marriage and its sanctity were affected by what ‘we’ were planning on. My mother *rolls eyes* who is not a full ‘believer’ of my ‘views’ or ‘lifestyle’ couldn’t help put her two cents in with the black irish man, and before something acidic slipped off my mouth that would affect my free ride to college tomorrow, I shaved the profanity and gave her the gist of it:
“All they want, All WE want… is to get married. We don’t want your stupid church and secretly sinning-spree priest wishing us well in an ancient oath ceremony that’s broken more often that people wear condoms. All we want is that piece of paper that assures us that we can enjoy the same legal and economical benefit ‘your kind’ enjoys, and also to feel safe if one of us dies that the other is taken care of without your help… is that too much to ask?”
And you know what, what’s so wrong with that??
What’s so wrong in wanting to love someone so much, you want to enter a legally binding contract (that cannot be broken for at least six months without good reason) that entitles another person to exactly half of what you earn, or otherwise?
What’s so wrong in being able to be 30% more eligible to adopt a child aged a few months to 18, giving them a good home, providing them every luxury possible to ensure a bright future? That’s besides loving them and nurturing them values that’ll keep them out of harm and prison.
Also, what’s so wrong in being able to legally be privy to vital information about the one person you truly love, i.e your partners well-being or company in a medical emergency?
All we… Scratch that, all I want is what is rightfully mine! I’d like to take potshots at Hetrosexual culture and its ‘divine institution’ that they’ve been doing a pretty good ridiculing since its inception without any of our help, but no – we’re better than that.
Today I wear the white knot, a simple symbol in allegiance to the fight for equal rights. We are not second class just because we love differently, we’re second class because you judge us and put us down by a book that preaches love and forgiveness a hundredfold.
