Hierarchy
With money, it comes hierarchy. I have noticed a trend of hierarchy that exists in our world as of today.
Sitting at the very top are the filthy rich GOOD looking individuals. They are blessed with both physical and materialistic assets. They can pretty much do whatever they desire based on both physical appearance and the power of "money". I bet if they b*tch slap you to the other side of the room, you will come back smiling and ask for more (and if you won't...i applaud you for sticking with principles...but seriously...you're just being an idiot by pissing them off).
Following the above, are the filthy rich UGLY looking individuals. They might not be well endowed with physical gifts...but they certainly got the CHA-CHING factor down! Why do you think the rich ugly guys can get the gorgeous models going head over heels for them? do you really think anna nicole smith married the wrinkly old man for love??? if you do believe so...i must slap some senses into you...you naivete.
To spare you with all the details...let's just bunch the next few groups under the category of "Average". This category entails the following: well-off-good-looking folks > well-off-ugly folks> average-income-good-looking folks > simply average all across the board people. Not much to say about this group..they're simply....AVERAGE!
Going down the totem pole, we have the poor GOOD looking peeps. They might not have the power of "money", but they certainly have the physical appearance to obtain some if need be. We all know the story of Cinderella...how else you think she can land a prince charming? it definitely ain't her personalities (yes...a nite of dancing tells A LOT about an individual's personality -_-"). Not to mention people are usually more lenient on people who are good looking. Take for example, a cop pulls a person over for a busted headlight on a 80 civic...the good looking person will most likely walk away with a warning..while others might end up with a ticket and be dubbed with "reckless drving". With physical attractiveness, you will have hope and potential in acquiring rich and fame....you also will be privileged.
If you are average-income and you're UGLY looking...you're actually towards the lower end of the spectrum...even lower than the poor GOOD looking folks...simply because of your physically unappealing nature. I am sorry to inform you that our superficial world more often than not overlooks your stable income status and will focus on your physical aspects. You achieved a certain amount of success, but due to your physicality, you'll receive less respect and some name calling. I sincerely apologize to people in this group....you're unfortunate.
Last but not least...and i'm sure you saw it coming...the poor AND ugly mofos! there's no way to put it nicely but to say...you're F#$%ed. may the force be with you.
Conclusion: reality is...the world we born in and the society we live in...is none other than superficial, materialistic, power driven, and hierachical. Worst of all, there's not a damn thing we can do to change that.
o my...what a cynical entry. the power of work...simply amazing..

Aichi's Series of Unfortunate Events
I have once again neglected my blog...my apologies to the people out there dying of boredom...i deprived you from some interesting reads (or so i assume) . As much as I'd like to say nothing's going on in my life...i'll be LYING! (oh aileen...we all know u're a big liar already). Quite a lot happened just within the past 2 weeks. It's been rather....what's the word..."interesing". Lots of strange events have been happening around me, all "life and death" related situations. well...since i'm blogging to you all at this moment...i'm still alive and well (*whew* devil cant have my soul JUST yet..not until i'm filthy rich and is the object of everyone's jealousy mwa ha ha ha) Just what EXACTLY are the "dramatic" situations i speak of......
1) T~~~imber! - as you all know (or refer to my previous entry)..my grandma was seriously hurt just 2 weeks back and pretty much stirred up quite a storm in my family. As i mentioned in my previous entry...i thought it was a beam that fell on her...but it wasnt...it was a the WHOLE FREAK'N PATIO that collpased on her!!! the patio in our backyard collapsed after a series of strong wind while my grandma was flowering some plants (impecable timing isnt it?) the wood for the patio I guess was just old and perhaps corroded quite a bit after some strange weather we had a while back. It's just the luck of the draw...but fortunately...she's alive...have a fractured spine...but it's a miracle that she's still kick'n and yack'n away (it runs in the family =Þ). She cant move much but defintiely alive and well. I will be paying my dues...so will be returning to the LA area on a weekly basis...oh...the oil companies are gonna get the best of me -_-" Thanx for all those that cared, prayed, and consoled me...muchos gracias!
2) BOOM! - as i was sitting at work....bored...mesmirized by the world of "internet". a loud explosion snapped me out of the hyponotic effects of "online". The lab, startled, all went to see what happened (did the terrorist attack? or have some scientists...sick of being whipped by Scripps...finally decide to go mad and want to take over the world!) Glass shattered EVERYWHERE and our microwave was GONE! apparently..."someone" (who's name shall remain anonymous) decided to heat up a bottle of reagent with the cap on TIGHT and set the microwave timer for 5 WHOLE MINUTES! due to the built up of vapor pressure within the bottle, it exploded (our boss later actually gave us a lecture on PV=nRT..the "ideal gas law" during of lab meeting *sigh). The microwave couldnt hold the explosion and it exploded as well. The safety glass on the microwave came off, glass shattered, and the thick rotating glass base in the microwave cracked and flew out as well! luckily...no one's within close proximity...so everyone safe and sound. Silly scientists...you would think they know better...but obviously they lack some much needed common sense.
3) HELP HELP! - just this weekend, i was in LA for Mama's day! my sister and i, being the awesome procrastinators that we are..decided to do the last min shopping for our bedridden granny. As we were strolling down the mall shopping for clothes..wait uh...i mean...present..yes! we heard this loud cry for help...curious and confused...we turned our heads. It was a woman screaming for help and a kid on the floor. Based on her "yacking" and "gagging" reflexes..she's choking. a mob of shoppers gathered around the woman and the kid. no one really knew what to do or what could be done (unforunately..i am not a certified healthcare personnel just yet...not to mention my memories of CPR back in hs was thrown outta the window LONG ago...i could only stand helpless and watch). Everyone were just spectating this unfortunate event like they're witnessing some first hand "reality show". Alas...someone certified saved the kid and the paramedics came. People disassembled and continued their disrupted shopping spree.
Strange huh? all these series of unfortunate events spawning all round me. if u're superstitious..perhaps you would say "i" am life the reaper's trying to claim but missed aim badly and hit others instead. or perhaps i am the lucky charm that spoiled the reaper from getting the lives of his/her interest. *shrug* one thing for certain...treasure the ones around u and live life to what you consider as the "fullest". you never know when might unexpected events occur outta thin air.
in the meantime...maybe stay away from aileen if you wanna be safe and alive! =Þ
peeaaaaace out!
