Now what?

2013 hasn't been a kind year so far, the death of my grandfather was sudden but not unexpected, my grandmother who usually doesn't share much emotions has cried, felt depressed and is mourning over the loss of her husband of 60+years, hearing her cry the way she did at the funeral literally crushed my heart...and to top it off, Saturday 8th June, morning at about 4:07am, my aunt who is 53/54 years old has died. She had cancer which spread to the brain, a stroke that paralysed her left side and she only retired a year ago...She has worked all her life and didn't even finish primary school...

These deaths that has occurred so suddenly has...some what punched some fear into me...should I work so much? Is there any jobs or careers that will allow me to enjoy life as a source of income? Should I bother with a job? How much time do I have left? What the Fuck am I even doing? Is this some form of "early-mid-life crisis?"...Bloody Hell, thinking about this jazz makes me wonder if I am losing it...

...OK..break......

...Gran is coming to the UK to stay with my family, FACT.
I will need a new job by August, FACT and ESSENTIAL.
I still have a dream where I won't need to depend on a job for my income, FACT, ESSENTIAL AND NECESSARY!

..That doesn't sound too bad! OK, job hunting here I come!

If anyone out there has any suggestions...please pass them over!

Well... It's been a few years since my last update, and quite a bit has transpired. Since January 2020, our journey has seen the national lockdown in March/April 2020, during which Maki and Ramen held strong. In 2021, Maki and Ramen secured a prime spot in the new St. James Quarters, with yours truly being crowned Branch Manager of that flagship establishment. I put in the hard yards, but there were some twists and turns. My employer, Teddy, scheduled two events specifically on my days off, both with a hefty 50% discount. This turned my peaceful days into utter chaos for my staff. The audacity was that Teddy tried to pin the disarray on my supposed lack of organization. Fortunately, I'm not one to shy away from transparency. My work orders from the higher-ups were an open book, with both the Head of Kitchen and Head of Sushi in the WhatsApp group chats, privy to all the event planning for my branch. While we knew an event was on the horizon, the specifics were conspicuously abs...

Just ranting!

WHO THE HELL GAVE THAT WOMAN THE "BIRTH RIGHT" TO HAVE ME TAXI HER AROUND AND EXPECT ME TO JUST AGREE?!?!?! SCREW YOU TO HELL AND TO THE NEW AREA WHERE THEY ARE MAKING IT ESPECIALLY FOR YOU YOU STUPID VA***A COW!!!! OK that had to come out, here's the story, throughout this week so far, my employer's wife who is looking after the work place in his absence has used a Chinese curse word on me several times. This curse word itself curses you to basically trip over and bust your face. It sounds lame translated into English but if you are Chinese and know which word I am referring to, then you know my anger, I can take it as a joke every once in a while but when you use that consistently,  you are testing my patients on how long I can withhold from punching that face of yours! So, its 12:46am now in UK, just over 2 hours ago, I was finishing up at work, Lisa (Boss' wife) comes strolling along and says "Hakuren, you busy tomorrow morning? I need a life up t...

Sleepless...

The past few nights has been horrendous for my sleep...mother needs to book flights, she seems unable to get the flights that suits her...,relatives visiting late (i mean after 12am late, while I must be up at 7am latest)... and their constant chatter, with the occasional laughter wake me from my almost deep sleep stage! Yet they always tell me to be more considerate to those who sleep for they have work the next day... At least I've got a night out planned, that's something to look forward to as well as a couple of drinks and meeting new people! Viva Le Weekend!!!
