the trip's been postponed till monday.
its all rather confusing. and i spent what could have been a wonderful evening (sorry, babe) just going back and forth on smses and calls trying to confirm everything.
just a little more than annoyed right now.
on hindsight, this whole thing could possibly border on amusing. on hindsight. but at the time, seeing how one person was using me to sweep my editor's power out from under her, and then (most likely) turn right around and point a finger at me later, was more than just a little overwhelming.
yes children, there are bad bad people in this world.
and its left a nasty taste in my mouth. hate the feeling of helplessness. knowing what he's telling me to do is simply ridiculous and will get me into trouble i've never seen before, and yet, not being able to tell him he's a twofaced self-serving rotten egg (wow how cheena) who cares for nothing but power for himself.
and here i thank God for giving me the most gracious, God-filled editor i could possibly ever know, or have the joy of working with.
in any case, the situation is still bad for us somewhat. now the mag, which is going to be late already, is going to be even later. *shrug* isn't my fault anymore, and they've really got another thing comin if they think they can push the blame to me again.
just listen to me. so angsty. heh.
ah well. anyway. was feeling rather annoyed after i came across some more info about abovementioned rotten egg during lunch today, and (somewhat) involuntarily let out a spew of angsty but not vulgar mandarin and dialect. my colleague was quite impressed. she said i speak mandarin so much more fluently and biao zhun (speaking the accents accurately) when i'm pissed.
i didn't know whether to take that as a compliment or not.
