Peeved.
I just finished my 4 nights. My first time doing 4 nights straight. And.. it wasn't as bad as I thought. I thought I was going to die of exhaustion after the 2nd night, and according to some of my colleagues, I'd be super tired on the 3rd night. But.. I didn't feel that tired. I mean I was tired from work but not as bad as some of my colleagues said it would be. I'm quite amazed myself. But I know the reason why I'm not dead. It's because I've been awake most nights for quite some time now. I've been doing nights, if not, afternoon or E shifts. That usually means I'd be sleeping during the day time and awake when the sun sets and the moon rises.
That's terrible. But I have 6 days to get my melatonin levels back in shape, meaning having melatonin at night instead of in the day time.
On to another topic. I have many pet peeves. Top on my list is, of course, bad English. Somewhere below is when women put on make up in public. Just touching up on the lip gloss is fine, but pulling out all layers and phases of cosmetics out of the bag and painting your whole face in public, that's like eww! I mean it's embarrassing. If you can't do it at home, at least go find a washroom somewhere else to put on your full make up. Not in the train! Yea. I was seating in the train opposite this woman who looked to be in her late 30s and was forced to witness the act of making her face up. From liquid foundation, to loose powder, to concealer, to blusher, eyeliner, eye shadow, mascara, lip stick and lip gloss. Really! She pulled out so many cosmetic out of her bag that I wondered if that's what all that her bag contained. I was shocked. She fished out so many different mirrors that I kept going "Oh my God, Oh my God". I snorted a bit too hard when she pulled out her mascara that snot actually came out of my nose. Actually no, nothing came out. It almost did but nothing anybody could see.
I mean, seriously. Why do you have to put on the full make up in public? Why do you have to let men see what we do to our faces? We are supposed to look natural and effortlessly beautiful when we step out of our house, even if there are hints of make up on our faces. Just don't show the steps! Geez.
In my own world,
