Bad Luck Day
So a few weeks ago I went to see a fortune teller to me it was supposed to be entertainment, as in the fortune teller wouls say something I would want to hear but not this one. She suggested me to go do some ritual at this chinese temple and gave me a brief informations about what was needed. I decided to do it because if what she told me was true then it's all good but if not then atleast I would have a peace of mind.
On Friday I had to go to see one of our store so I decided that may be after I finish my work I would go to the temple. As the temple is chinese so I asked a Chinese colleague to take me there and she agreed evrything was set. However on friday morning she broke up with her boyfriend and was not in the right mind to go out which is understandable. I then called another friend and she said she would come 30 mins later she called to say something happened ot her car. Still determine I got on the taxi and about 3/4 way to the temple the traffic was bad so the taxi kicked me out. Out of all the days I picked to wear high heels and ofcourse it was painful.
I stoppedalong the way to buy 4 oranges (part of the ritual), then waitg 30 minutes for rose galand, which are normally everywhere but not that day. with good spirits I also gave some money to every beggars I came across. Then I got to the temple.
As expected I had no clue what to do, so I decided to make it up since it's probably the thought that counts. First I went to the statue which I needed to do my offereing to. Then I walked to where I can light incense sticks on my way out I met my ex boyfriend (who is prtially chinese). I was happy for awhile as now I can get the help I needed but no he didn't help.
So I went along and did what I imagined then offer the 4 oranges to the goddess. I opend the bag and left it there. Then this lady turned to asked me if we were supposed to have 5 or 4 oranges. I said 4 then looked in to the bag and saw 5 oranges. The merchant has given me one for free.
WHAT A DAY?! EVERYTHING JUST HAPPENED TO GO WRONG!!!!!

Weird Customer
So yesterday I got a call from a customer wanting to make some suggestions about our products. I was happy about it until she told me that she wanted a travel bag like the one victoria beackham is carrying, excatly the same. I was shocked she called the design room to tell us to copy one specific bag just because she wants it!! the keyword is COPY!! so I told her we will see what we can do.
Then she called again and asked for my e mail so she can e mail the picture and more details. I gave it to her anyway and she send 2 e mails to me regarding the same thing. I replied saying something along the line of we'll see what we can do and thank you. I thought that was the ned but no she e mailed me back askin if we can make it a limited edition?!! SIGHHHH -_-" customers can be so weird sometimes

Donia, Wicked Lovely
Wicked Lovely is the first book of a fantasy series by Melissa Marr. If you have never read the book and you are into a slightly dakrer fantasy novels I highly you check this book out.
Here is the Plot (from Wikipedia): Wicked Lovely is the first novel in a series about a world where fairies and mortals intermingle. The story introduces Aislinn, a teen who can see the faeries around her, but who has been taught all her life to pretend not to see them. She is struggling to cope with the faeries when Keenan, the faery Summer King, enters her life and takes away her mortality, asking her to become the Summer Queen and defeat his mother, the Winter Queen. If she refuses, Winter will take over and kill all the summer faeries and mortals alike. However, Aislinn has no desire to become part of the faerie world, and is already in love with her best friend, Seth. In the end, she cannot avoid becoming the Summer Queen, and reigns alongside Keenan over the creatures she once feared. Upon defeating the Winter Queen, Aislinn brings peace to the world of fey. She also sticks with her best friend and new lover, Seth.
However in the book there's another character who's name is Donia, who is my favourite character. She is a winter girl. She has to work for the winter queen and try to stop Keenan from finding his summer queen eventhough she loves him and once sacrifise her life as a mortal for him. What an awesome character, right?! A heart broken girl like me obviously feels it, the sense of lose, disappointment, betray all those but you still love the guy but there's nothing you can really do about it.
