| Dammit. Dammit dammit dammit! / The Simple WaySigh... I'm emotionally exhausted. 
Apparently, I read Sung's "Open Letter To Xanga" (Ugh, didn't know Dan is that much of a, um, "fashion trend setter" here. *sigh*  ). I guess I didn't hate the post, but what I hated are the comments bashing Christianity. *sigh*
I don't take it against people who don't believe on other people's beliefs, only I would like it if they could respect it. I don't care if it's any other religion, thing is those people who attacks other people's beliefs don't deserve to be respected.
One thing about me: I hate immature, narrow-minded people.* Especially if they're out of their teens. I mean-oh for the love of sweet, fresh, luscious, plump bananas, grow up, WILL YA???
So there.
I almost punched the laptop (sorry, laptop), but I guess it can't be helped.
Anyway, there's no point in getting hyped up about it, getting angry and dissing them all. They're not worth my time, anyway.
Lemme go off to another topic (yaaayy!!!).
And no, it will not be about the meaning of the word "Yaaayy" (my apologies to FMB and VaultESL). I'm saving it for another time.
Remember I told you about me being the VP of an org, right? Remembah?
Well, our PM (Prime Minister, a.k.a. president) emailed us the Calendar of Activities, a format for our Project Proposals (including the Budget Proposal) and also some tasks that we are going to do.
When I saw all the files before me, I only thought of four things:
- What the friggin' heck?
- What am I going to do?
- How am I going to finish all these tasks?
- God, help me.
So, as I was lookin' at the Budget Proposal, Calendar of Activities and all those shizzle in the dizzle, I've suddenly come up with how to (theoretically speaking) manage all those things and, being a leader, I naturally thought of how I'm going to implement my leadership.
Ladies, Gents and Monkeys, I present to you:
The Simple Way (okay, that has GOT to be the lamest title I've ever created, but I have no idea what name to give it, so go figure)
Anyway:
The Simple Way
- Maximize benefits by minimalizing costs
- Gain leadership by losing control and power
- Strengthen reliability by weakening people's expectations
Okay, let's start with the easiest.
#3: Strengthen reliability by weakening people's expectations
As a leader, I tend to expect so much of myself, often to my dismay, as I am a person and not a computer. I've thought of this much, and I found out that I feel the most satisfied when I've accomplished something that I never expected I could accomplish. I thought that if this applies to me, it should (theoretically speaking) apply to people. I mean, this is actually basic Business concept: the most successful products are products that give more value to customers than what its description actually says.
#2: Gain leadership by losing control and power
As a leader, I've always tried to set an example: I tried to be a hardworking little twerp thinking people would be driven by my motivation to work. Of course, that is not actually true (I learned that in a -hard- way). Some people would actually ABUSE you. And that, my friend, is a frustrating, heart-wrenching situation, and you could seriously injure a penis if you're not careful (uh, yeah, don't kick them there). So I've come up with a different take on things: be a leader by delegating work to individuals and enjoy the comfort of your sofa.  Nah, just kidding about the sofa thing, but yeah. Be a leader by creating leaders (if that makes sense). If your followers know that they're learning from you, and they're getting the tasks done (which are goal-oriented, of course), then you, my friend, are on your way to becoming the next American Idol a successful leader.
#1 Maximize benefits by minimalizing costs
This is sort of the same with #3. Sort of. What I mean here is to maximize the benefits of my org by minimalizing costs of projects. I mean, that's just logical to me. I am not going to deny the fact that it is just a budding org and that we have NEXT TO NIL monetary fund. It would be proven positive for the org if we accept that yes, we're broke. So if we could make project that would not actually cost more than what we have, that would be good (plus it will save our asses from having so much debts and losses). That is not impossible, it is only near impossible, but still possible. Hey, we're not studying in Commerce and Business Administration for nothing. Resource allocation should be our THING.
So there, my friends, that is the reason why I entitled this post "Dammit. Dammit dammit dammit! / The Simple Way". This post is nowhere near simple, so I'm sorry and I hope you actually read the whole post. Thank you.

| Something about GuillotineSomething that I've read from Wikipedia plus other sources.
*****
The following report was written by a Dr. Beaurieux, who experimented with the head of a condemned prisoner by the name of Henri Languille, on June 28, 1905:
Here, then, is what I was able to note immediately after the
decapitation: the eyelids and lips of the guillotined man worked in
irregularly rhythmic contractions for about five or six seconds. This
phenomenon has been remarked by all those finding themselves in the
same conditions as myself for observing what happens after the severing
of the neck...
I waited for several seconds. The spasmodic movements ceased. [...]
It was then that I called in a strong, sharp voice: 'Languille!' I saw
the eyelids slowly lift up, without any spasmodic contractions – I
insist advisedly on this peculiarity – but with an even movement, quite
distinct and normal, such as happens in everyday life, with people
awakened or torn from their thoughts.
Next Languille's eyes very definitely fixed themselves on mine and
the pupils focused themselves. I was not, then, dealing with the sort
of vague dull look without any expression, that can be observed any day
in dying people to whom one speaks: I was dealing with undeniably
living eyes which were looking at me. After several seconds, the
eyelids closed again[...].
It was at that point that I called out again and, once more, without
any spasm, slowly, the eyelids lifted and undeniably living eyes fixed
themselves on mine with perhaps even more penetration than the first
time. Then there was a further closing of the eyelids, but now less
complete. I attempted the effect of a third call; there was no further
movement – and the eyes took on the glazed look which they have in the
dead.

Mr. Munky: *gasp!!!*

| Mr. Munky is STILL watching you, so don't be distracted by my weirdness, dammit!I thank purpleritz20 for reminding me about the contest (seriously, I forgot all about that. I guess I enjoyed reading VaultESL's and FMB's series too much).
Oh yeah, you know what I'm talking about.
VOTE ME FOR Xanga's Beauty Contest, because you know you like me, and Mr. Munky will hurl his Mighty Banana upon your sorry butts if you don't! ::waves her fists angrily::
So far, these are the people who voted for me, and thus, are immune from Mr. Munky's Mighty Banana and his very strong "Walking Stick".

| Why, oh why, do people just looooove to hear about how weird I am??Seriously. What is -wrong- with you people??
I friggin' posted that -post- just to show you how funny my prom date
looks like, and there you go talking about how my weirdness is good.
"Oh, look at Jenavee, she's so weird and funny and, and, oh such a cuddly-poo..."
(What the HECK???)
*Sigh*
Fine fine! If that is what you want. You wanna know me? YOU WANNA KNOW ME?? Are you sure about it? ARE YOU SURE ABOUT IT??
(Why do I keep on repeating questions in caps?)
*shrugs*
Ah well. Here ya go.
This is me.
I normally look like this:
(What? You think I'm weird? You think this FACE is weird?)
(Well, duh?!)
Okay.
One trivia about me.
See, I have this peculiar thing about... things. The tackier they look, the more "dazzling" they look on me.
For example:
You see this? This is my pair of glasses. See how tacky they are? Yup, those are my glasses.
You're thinking: "Who the heck in their right mind would even think of wearing that?"
Well, duh! I would. I like them. It fits me.
Wanna see how it looks on me?
See? Told yah it fits me. Here's another picture, in case you're in doubt.
See? The tackier they are, the better.
My sister always laughs whenever we buy things for me. She enjoys picking gawdy things and when they fit me (which usually does), she laughs her ass off.
Yup. That's my sister. She loves me so much.
Wanna see her picture?
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Yeah right! I won't show her yet. You'd be really surprised how different we look.
Besides, she's a very... um "shy" person (choke, choke... *gasp*).
Okay, maybe not. But she wants to keep private things "private".
Hmm. I dunno why. Maybe it's because she's a first-born. I find many first borns to behave like that.
Oh well.
