how can it be my fault when people can't follow simple instructions written on paper? so, their incompetence becomes my mistake and my load to bear? foolish is the one who fails to see beyond what is in front of him...

i remember not too long ago, i once told a fellow colleague, who has since left, that i can tolerate incompetence but not stupidity. Oh how wrong i was to be. i think i can even hear him laughing at this very moment. well, i'm sorry for my naivety.

life's always beautiful but the people around you make it horrible.

congrats to the frens i hold dear

i am seriously appalled at how low people can go to achieve their goals. i'm referring to a particular colleague here who has been pilfering loads of shit from me! scum bag!

firstly, he started pilfering my MP3s! you might say that MP3s are free anyway so why make a fuss? well, i'm totally cool if he asks me whether is it alright to copy the MP3s from my comp but he has never done that! my office is link-up by a network and anybody can log into your personal comp just by going onto the network. And so, this scum bag colleague has been logging into my comp to copy the MP3s out and when i installed a password to my network to stop him, he would sit at my desk when i'm out of the office during lunch to transfer the MP3s into his comp. the best part is, i'm not the onli he does that to. you see, in my office, my 2 other copywriters and me are the ones with the best selection in MP3s. this scum bag colleague doesn't even hav the courtesy to attribute the MP3s to us!

secondly, he has also been pilfering my collection of wallpapers! wat the hell! first mp3s then wallpapers and the final straw came when i realised he pilfers my creative ideas too! it's amazing how desperate pple can get and the lengths they will go to save their own skin. lemme elaborate... this scum bag colleague is my junior art director and recently, he has been receiving alot of flake from my boss and my creative grp head for his incompetency in his work. the other day, i was having a casual chat with my creative grp head on some ideas which might work for a certain print ad. my junior art director was tasked in coming up with the creatives for this particular print ad (i'm not involved becoz my hands are pretty tied up this past 2 weeks).

so how issit possible that 1 of my ideas can be incorporated into the ads if i'm not involved? And considering that my creative grp head left everything to my junior art director to freestyle the print ad with directions on the creatives coming from my top boss onli... WORSE, the finished product or rather the print ad looks like shit. WHY? becoz this is wat u get when u try to pilfer other pple's ideas when u hav no talent urself. i bet he didn't fully grasp my concept idea and that's why it looks like shit! SHIT SHIT SHIT!!! i will try and put up the ad and everyone can judge for themselves.

this is so infuriating... i can tolerate everything else but i cannot tolerate pple stealing my IDEAS!!

photos!

Depeche Mode - Somebody

I want somebody to share
Share the rest of my life
Share my innermost thoughts
Know my intimate details
Someone who'll stand by my side
And give me support
And in return
She'll get my support
She will listen to me
When I want to speak
About the world we live in
And life in general
Though my views may be wrong
They may even be perverted
She will hear me out
And won't easily be converted
To my way of thinking
In fact she'll often disagree
But at the end of it all
She will understand me

I want somebody who cares
For me passionately
With every thought and with every breath
Someone who'll help me see things
In a different light
All the things I detest
I will almost like
I don't want to be tied
To anyone's strings
I'm carefully trying to steer clear
Of those things
But when I'm asleep
I want somebody
Who will put their arms around me
And kiss me tenderly
Though things like this
Make me sick
In a case like this
I'll get away with it

I've found that somebody and i must be the most blessed man. In return, she will be the most blessed girl. Thank you dearie.

i am just mentally drained, so drained that i wake up on certain days brain dead. i'm not physically worned out or anything close to that, but just tired from all the things happening around me - things that require me to think or use my brain juices. i can wake up feeling refreshed and all but somehow my brain doesn't seem to work. this mental deficiency is starting to eat into me and i can't take it anymore! i wanna scream till my lungs burst or even until my adam apple flies out.

Nice guys always finish last. Only in the movies and TV shows do you see nice guys coming out tops. Even then, 99% of the time, these nice guys are "gd looking" guys. The stupid media and its influence on society!
