~ V-day ~


Valentine's Day isn't much different from any other day for single people. We will still be happy and busy (and lonely) like usual. So to all couples out there, celebrate your loves and enjoy every moment you could. To all the singles, faster couple up!!

....

Sarcastically, the day before the sweetest day of the year - the 13th - happened to be on Friday --> a black Friday! The way it went really served its bad label. First off, Midwest had snow, again! Just when I thought I could enjoy an early spring this year, we get 5 inches of snow dumped into Ames last night. Few days ago, it was all about sunshine, fresh breeze and jolly feelings. Now, it's all white, yickie and cold. The weather is being a PMS bitch!

Plus, companies seem to choose yesterday to deliver bad news to their poor employees. Two people I know in Microsoft and another in Deloitte got laid off. Microsoft even reported that there will be another 3500 people get sacked in the next 18 months. Poor my friends! I guess their V-
day turned out to be D-day =(
I wonder how the hell their bosses deliver this kind of news - "You just got laid off! Happy Valentine's Day" ?!?!?!

Funny fact, Microsoft gives their employees 15 free massages a year as one of the employee's benefits. I bet this was the only thing Bill Gates missed dearly when he quit the job.

Anyway, gotta get back to kiss my GMAT book. Please God Bless Me!!
