LiveSpaces is closing down and forced me to move my blog to WordPress. Pffff!!!
This decision brings this blog to its death. If you still want to know what’s happening in my life…go to www.blackphoenixlegend.blogspot.com. (a more professional place for bloggers)
Now I’m FORCED to buy a region-free bluray player and an universal AC adapter converter.
The month of August ended in disaster/catastrophee…not the way I would wanted.
Long story short: I had some tensions with a close friend of mine because of some ridiculous incidents and people.
Long story long: If we trace back the origin of the problem…it all started with the Visa.
To be able to get into China, we have to get a Visa (I hope you know that) and thus my kind aunt went all the way to Ottawa in order to save everybody some $$$. The glitch here is that she won’t be able to go to Ottawa herself to pick them up. What was her solution? Give the receipt to a friend, also a high school friend of mine (who happens to work in that deserted city), so this person can bring them back to Montreal when she’ll be back (on Friday night) for the weekend. Do not think that this plan is working in splendor. The little complication is the fact that my friend wants to go to Vermont with her Honey Bear (leaving Friday afternoon), which requires a passport (I hope you know that too) to get through the US boundary.
This wouldn’t be such a big deal if my aunt’s friend/my high school friend have nothing better to do than go to the Embassy, pick up our passports and post them back. But…life isn’t always going as well as we wish it will. Worst case scenario…my close friend will have to go to Ottawa and pick them up.
Looking from another angle, it is completely understandable if that Ottawa friend refuses to do it, because it means that she has to spend her lunch/personal time to do us a favor. I was surprised that she ended up accepting the demand. Muuucho gracias!!!
My close friend and I had an argument on that, because she was so frustrated that she said not wanting to go to our trip anymore. At first, I was on my nerves too, because I did everything I could, trying to make things work…and all I get in return was dissatisfaction. After a moment for meself to calm down and think over the situation (put myself in my friend’s position), I can understand why and how important this is to her. I kindly apologized for being a little rude over the phone…and things are back to their initial state. *strongly hope*
Ha! That’s not all. Don’t you dare think that it is over. There’s a part 2 to my miserable journey.
We have to also book flight tickets (for a small group of 6 people) to go from Shanghai to Hong Kong. The website was malfunctionning:
Did I tell you how much I *with a dictator’s voice* HATE waiting and knowing that someone’s mad at me??? Well…
What to do in these circumstances:
Suggestion 1: It is not or nearly not possible to think objectively when you are too close to the problem. Thus, when you
Suggestion 2: Also, do not trust everything you hear from others…only rely on your own eyes and ears.
Suggestion 3: As long as you feel that you did the right thing, you have nothing to worry. God (and I mean the REAL one) will know. Good people will have good karma and bad people will have bad karma. Let God do his job and take care of it.
Suggestion 4: Love from family members, friends, and the "other half" cannot be weighted. It is never fair…the give and get relation is not proportionned. If you start counting…it is not love anymore, but business. Love can’t be bought nor sold.
Conclusion: No one will forever be by your side. If they want to leave…let them go. If you try to stuggle too much, the person who gets hurt at the end will be no one else but yourself. This is why you have to be thankful to have each other while you still do.
