a hopeless romantic's attempt

I've recently gotten obsessed with Matt Damon and I blame it on the Bourne trilogy. It was that kissing scene in particular in The Bourne Identity that caused me to swoon over everything Matt Damon. (And yes, I have seen that youtube video featuring him and Sarah Silverman. That video made my day)

why am I so impatient?
why am I unsatisfied?
why am I ... like this?

needy... empty....

blah blah blah blah blah

The weather is gorgeous today. The warm sun, the pure blue sky...
Makes me feel wonderful, that life is perfect and that I am okay.

It warms my face, my heart, my soul.

Lovely weather today.
If only it could be so pleasant all year round.

I haven't written at vox for ages.....
I could do without the Ads by Google on the right of this box I'm writing in.....

got to love the surprises life gives you.
The irony is too much for me!

but oh! i have another HR story.... it goes along the line of being accidentally terminated.
I can't say anymore, there isn't much to say anyhow. Use your imagination.

I try to tell myself that there was nothing there, therefore I didn't lose anything.

But lies can be only so convincing.

dum, de, da, dee, doo....

what does it mean?
nothing.

and there is light, hope. =]

entries are so vague. I wonder if I read back if would I remember the context. Probably. :P heeh

hello sir,
do you remember me?
can you whisper my name?
have you thought of me as of late?

I remember you.
I thought I knew you.
Your arms of a warm embrace.

your eyes,
seas to dive into and explore.
Were those days erased?

I remember you.
I didn't know you.
But I wanted to.

Times passed.
The clock ticked.
And there you were.
And here I am.

But where are you now?
aloof you act,
memory escapes.

What was I.
What are you.

I, thrown aside, again.

A chapter closed?
Or merely a bookmarked page?
A bend of the page, for later day?

Hello sir,
good bye sir.
This isn't a game I play.

It's absolutely surprising how difficult it is to work with HR.

Of course i'm speaking about just a specific instance.

HR associate calls me today saying she cannot reach some of my references. I put her on hold (I admit, maybe for a minute or so too long) searching for numbers. I get back on the line, and nobody is there.

Alright, alright... what to do now? Will she call back? Hopefully!
Anyhow, so I call the HR company and I'm thrown around between departments and transfers. I called again to hope I got different people who could help me better. But no.. same people, same transfers. Same circles. Clearly nobody wanted to help me out :( I have the number(s) they can use! Yet alas, I have nobody to talk to.

To make things more... something or other, i call the number of the manager I am going to work with. And just my luck she's on vacation, yet leaves the number of someone else to reach if it's an emergency. I call that number, and they're on vacation. Yet they have a number to call if they cannot be reached, and... it's some sort of voice box number...?

Le sigh, le sigh.
I can only help that the HR associate calls back. I'm sorry for all the troubles!
But really, I signed all the forums and they were faxed to the HR firm December 7th. Today is December 21st. I'm sure two weeks is normal processing time? I really don't know, so I should not judge. It is the holiday season and people are going on vacation.

*insert a whole bunch of justifications*

Just my luck...
