Selamat Hari Merdeka Malaysia!

langkawi.. after a decade..

it has been more than a decade since I set foot on Langkawi island.. yes.. I know.. it's been a long time and it's the truth.. I remembered the last time I went there was with my college buddies during college days to watch LIMA exhibition.. ironically, we'd rented a Hyundai car (cannot recall what model, I'll remember when I see one) for our ride.. I just couldn't remember what year was that.. maybe if I can find photos of us there, then only I can recall.. at that time, the island was kind of deserted.. compare to today which is crowded not only with people.. but also with all kind of duty free shops.. they were sprung like mushrooms sprung to life after the rain.. the langkawi I remembered was mellow, peaceful, calm and quiet island.. with sandy beaches and small chalet along the beach.. back then, there were no tall building on the island.. now, hotels are big and tall.. roads are becoming narrow, small and tight.. although those 2 same opposite lanes were there since GOD knows when.. in addition to that, most of sundry shops were build at the roadside.. which make things worst..

The trip was organized by my mom's office.. almost most of all her unit were going.. in total of 10 families.. kind of family day specially organized for/by her unit.. 2 executive coaches were needed to chauffer us all from Shah Alam to Kuala Perlis on Friday nite.. we reached there the next morning.. we didn't have to wait long for ferry ride.. luckily, the ferry co made special announcement for us when it was time to aboard.. obviously, bcos we was one big group.. they also had reserved designated places for us on the ferry.. so there was no hassle there.. so far the journey was smooth as silk.. it took almost an hour to reach Langkawi jetty.. I never thought it was that far though.. the ferry was packed with people and luggage.. at the jetty, we have to wait for our ride.. I thought we all would be chauffer on the bus.. apparently, they'd rented a van for each family (for small family which comprised of 3 or 4 person.. they would scooched together 2 families in the same van).. since our's was among the big one, we do needed our own van and chaperon.. luckily, my 1st bro joined us all.. at first, he didn't really confirm to join this trip.. it was supposed to be my 2nd bro.. but he just couldn't make it.. busy with his class and work.. otherwise, we wouldn't have any driver to drive that old van.. moi, my mom, my 2 sis (one is underage and one with no driving experience) and 3 little kids.. even my mom hadn't see this coming..

the downside of the trip I would say, weather and missing luggage.. not luggage la.. a plastic bag with all those kind of expensive chocolates.. my leg were still sore of running around back and forth to those endless duty shops.. choosing all kind of varieties and comparing prices.. sigh!.. luckily my mom save some in her hand luggage.. but most them were the cheap one la... dah takde rezeki nak merasa yg mahal2.. maybe next time around.. weather was gloomy and rainy.. the farthest part we went was underwaterworld.. that was it! I should plan this trip ahead if I really want to cover most part of the island.. rasa tak puas hati berjalan this time!

and for family bowling tournament we were 4th from 10 families.. it was GOOD! considered only moi and mom participated in the game.. my 2 sisters memang tangan kayu.. baling ntah macamana.. bola itu melompat2 macam katak.. nasib takde org yg cedera.. pelik aku diorang tak penah main.. me during college days dah terjebak in this game.. my bro, he'd been imported to another team which has only 3 team members.. so, nak cukupkan korum jek.. tak percaya gak aku dia tak penah main bowling.. betol rupanya! nasib tak masuk dlm team kitorang.. hehehe.. berlagak sungguh! tapi lama2 tu ok laa.. boleh catch up.. ala guys ni.. senang jek.. it's my 2nd bro yg terror in all sort of sports.. you just name it.. futsal, bola, badminton, bowling, skateboard.. among sports yg I know he played.. hockey and rugby jek tak join lagi.. if he has time, moi believe he will play one day!

let's play futsal

*before the game.. muka semua nervous jek.. senyum pon terpaksa..*
*after played versus siapa ntah.. semua pancit..*
*konon2 main dalam court.. panaskan badan and training*

moi was chosen to be a 'bidan terjun' to represent company's ladies futsal team.. there was a friendly match between motor group which was held yesterday, sunday at s*nway sports planet.. pagi2 dah kena pegi... lagi awal dari moi datang keje.. hehe.. so as usual, muka2 yg sama jugak la main semua game i.e. netball, badminton.. tapi bcos I'm not the great player and not the strong one.. telah kena yelled with team manager.. and moi was withdrawn from the game.. sempat beraksi for the first half time only.. I'd kind of felt bad though.. tapi takpelah.. dah tau my position must be on reserved bench... so tak kuasa aku nak berasa hati.. ikut ajelah apa manager cakap.. next time around I won't listen to whatever people outside of the court say.. semak jek... I did shout when other people played but not in a directive way.. just cheered for them.. but some people love to boss other people around.. so there goes my ketidakpuasanhati!..

tapi the best part semuanya memang bersemangat waja.. and we all had fun.. even most of us has zero experience with futsal.. apatah lagi lawan tournament.. so, seronok bcos we were not the last one although not the champion.. even though our's place is second from the last.. 3/4.. still quite impressive for a futsal virgin like us.. adalah 2-3 org yg penah main.. tapi majority memang tak penah main.. 1st game semuanya nervous.. jadi lost to LR.. 2nd game dah gained confident sikit.. so menang 1-0.. AB ni nampak jek lincah.. tapi sepak bola ntah ke mana.. and lagi teruk drpd us jugak rasanya.. hehe.. jahat aku.. final game sbb lawan dgn the big team.. so.. takut jugak.. jadinya byk defense.. itu yg seri.. our scores:

HY vs LR : 3 - 2 (LR is the champion.. so at least we all kalah tak malu.. this team consisted of senior2 player.. makcik2 yg siap bawak anak2 main.. diorg ni jugak terror main netball.. boleh kata terror dlm semua sukan la.. cos from past record kitorg asik kalah ngan diorg ni..)

HY vs AB : 1 - 0 (this team was sungguh berlagak.. their's men team pandang us sebelah mata.. as if we all tak boleh main.. suka hati aku!.. their's men team was also kalah to our's men team.. lagi tambah suka aku!)

HY vs SDAM : 0 - 0 (masa memula tgk SDAM ni main.. abis dibelasahnya AB.. 3-0 if not mistaken.. memang we all gerun la tgk diorg ni main.. and they also have one player who plays in skuad kebangsaan.. haa amik!.. mau tak kecut semuanya.. I expected they would be the champion.. since aku balik awal.. tak tau siapa yg menang.. tapi mmg confident SDAM would be the ladies champion.. rupanya salah tekaanku..)

Final ladies placement:
1) LR
2) SDAM
3) HY
4) AB

Final men placement:
1) FO
2) HY - Workshop
3) HY - Technical
4) FO

(for men, one co sent more than 1 team, like us sent 3 teams.. and 2 of them were in leading place.. so not bad huh.. us ladies, nak cari org utk cukupkan 1 team pon payah, lg nak tambah jadi 2-3 teams.. tidak laa akan tercapai mission itu..)

I believe if we all rajin turun practise or main at least once a week ke.. mesti boleh belasah SDAM tu.. hehehe.. semangat tak abis nih.. apa2 pon I had fun.. takde la injured teruk.. since aku main sekejap jekkan.. the best players I would say our's defense and our's goalkeeper.. they were awesome!.. even denga compliment from opponent's supporters.. 'GOALIE TANGKAP BAIK!!' bcos she did manage to save most of the 'serangan yg bertubi2' from our opponent.. sadly dia pon dah nak blah.. tapi hopefully can still keep in touch and continue to play with us..

*tak penah aku citer pasal sport camnihkan.. waaa.. sangat impress!!*

story of my dissappearance

update on my dissappearance.. 2-3 days after 'rombongan cik kiah' I had a very very bad diarrhoea.. I went to panel clinic first.. apparently medicine from panel clinic didn't work well on me.. I still had to run back and forth to toilet.. 1st day went to clinic nothing serious happened.. doc just gave me regular medicine.. then, I went back to the clinic for 2nd day.. the doc said I was badly dehydrated.. *memang aku tak makan/minum.. cos semuanya keluar balik* so doc decided to give me an IV fluid.. this 2nd time trip to the panel clinic, my mom had to drive me.. she was also mc that day to collect her monthly supply of medication.. cos I'm just not capable and brave enough to drive.. so she volunteered to do so.. apparently the clinic didn't has smaller pack of fluid.. so they had no choice but to injected me with a larger pack version (had no idea how many ml).. which took more than 1 hr to complete.. *mom sampai tertido2 atas kerusi.. moi also mengantuk2 atas katil tu.. dah la sejuk beku*.. first time in my life I had that experience.. *memang teruk giler*.. at night I couldn't sleep well.. *tido pon tidur2 ayam jek.. memanjang keluar masuk toilet*.. even after I took the medication and been injected with the fluid.. still there was no changes on my pain.. it was still painful in my stomach.. after that I went to non-panel clinic with also the same result.. as far as working goes.. I didn't really care any more.. *apa nak jadi pon jadilah*.. there were days when I went to clinic and got mc.. but there were also days which I couldn't really wake-up and in no mood to go out and take mc.. I took EL instead..

after a while, when mom saw moi took the same medication.. again and again.. even after I completed the course, I would go back to the clinic and asked them to refill them for me.. or simply said my condition is getting worst not getting better.. they would eventually either gave me the same supply or added new one on top of the old ones.. moi mom said this was not right.. maybe you should try different things.. she brought me to this massage thingy.. actually, she had informed me about this stuff long ago.. but I just you know.. kind of ignored her in my own way.. bcos she herself doesn't really go regularly for the treatment.. I thought I don't really have problem with my health (so far until I was getting very2 sick).. the treatment is a combination of 5-in-1 treatments.. 1)massage 2)acupressure at chi point 3)maxibustion ('bertungku') 4)Far Infra Rays 5)chiropractic.. the treatment is done on CERAGEM master bed.. you just lay down and relax yourself.. the maxibustion or 'bertungku' using this heated stones embedded inside the bed.. in this case they are using jade stone which are heated and rolled onto your body.. the reason of using jade stone is that it can give/spread more Far Infra Rays (FIR) into your body.. as for massage treatment, it will goes along the way of your back-spine.. and stomach too (during final stage you have to turn around so it can massage your stomach).. this treament is a combination of east and west.. combination of chi philosophy, acupuncture, chiropratic and so on.. it's called CERAGEM and the best part it is FREE.. and they're encourage you to come everyday.. I've been visiting this place since my days of pain and agony (about 1 month).. now, I could feel the difference.. as of to-date I feel no pain no more but I still watch out on whatever goes into my stomach.. *phobia lor*.. so that's why I even willing to sacrifice my lunch hour or even my lunch meal to go for 40 minutes treatment.. so far, they have only 4 outlets if I'm not mistaken Desa Hartamas, Cheras, Shah Alam and Sg Petani.. I think I missed one more outlet bcos they just a new one.. I even brought my sister over one day bcos her sinus problem is worst than mine.. and she said she loved it! but they only open during office hour for working days and half day on saturday.. so you better check it out!

p/s: now, I can fit into my old pants back! What a painful way to loose weight.. I'm not recommended to you all..

*moi akan cuba menempek gambar setelah ditemui.. tungguuu*

final which is not been finalize

sorry for the silent treatment to all my loyal readers.. so very busy with work.. numerous reports due for month-end closing.. moving from very large space in 1 st floor to tiny crammed cubicle in ground floor.. honestly speaking, I just couldn't breath at this new surrounding.. temperature is freaking cold as if I'm living in Alaska during winter season.. so very open wide space.. no privacy at all! couldn't even 'mengular' or surf internet.. bosan!.. and this is kind of not final jugak.. I think our job is at stake.. not even sure if our services will be needed here.. ntah2 aku kena pindah kulim.. since locally assembled vehicle operation would be centralized there.. ntah2 satu company kena pindah kulim.. here would be HQ for motor division.. and filled with all stuck-up, phony, kiss-ass kind of people.. I just don't like this kind of culture.. simply bcos I don't know how to act around this kind of people..

maybe it's time for me to go.. do and explore different thing.. one thing about me.. I'm kind of afraid to go out there.. firstly bcos it's been a while since 'I jumped'.. secondly, afraid of not getting what I want.. afraid of being broken hearted.. hmm.. sometimes, it's hard to get what you want.. but eventually you'll get it.. that's what I believe.. from my past experience, GOD would shows the miracle way on getting what I want.. you just have to follow the right way.. not the wrong ones.. of course, it's easy to follow the wrong ones.. which probably consists of several different ways.. the right way might only consists of this ONE way.. the ONE and ONLY.. yes, it is very easy said than done.. I'd kind of experiences nervous breakdown here.. but I wouldn't want to show it to anyone.. some people think there is something interesting happened in your life.. and that kind of thing shows on yourself.. i.e. pretty face, happy.. really? I don't think you can trust that 100%.. here is the tips.. for myself, it's usually the other way around.. between sad and happy.. if I show happy face too much, there must be something bad happen to me but I kind of managed to put it aside.. but if you see me kind of sad, I'm probably happy with something.. seriously! I'm not lying.. I'm kind of scared to be over-happy bcos scared that I would crushed the next day.. things like that.. I'm afraid that I will jinxed the whole happy/sad thing.. that's why I chose to be in the middle.. mellow and show no emotion.. that's perfect.. that's why I'm stone.. bcos some people think they can simply judge ourselves from whatever emotions show outside.. I think you'd been fooled.. now I do understand why some people so curiously to get to know me in depth.. which I feel kind of bizarre.. bcos honestly, there's nothing interesting happened in my life.. just normal little things which I'm not intended to tell the whole world about them..

well, this is not what I intended to blog about.. I'll continue later on updates..

family affairs

 

I went to the movie on Friday nite with my sister.. since she was back home from college.. in fact it was her mid-term break but due to extra-curricular she had to handled/organized, she had to stay at hostel.. at first we want to watch spiderman.. but from the timing I knew we couldn't make it.. plus my sis wanted to buy her college supply.. so, we decided to watch 'NEXT'.. by nicolas cage and julianne moore.. it was perfect timing.. not too late, not too early.. but the movie was kind of flat.. and kind of confusing, a bit la.. we missed the movie for a few minutes due to long queue at the supermarket.. this what I called watch the movie for the sake of watching the movie.. usually I would watch that one particular movie that I really wanted to watch.. that's it.. I'm not the frequent visitor to cinema.. for this movie, I'm kind of regretted and kind of felt moi money was poured down the drain.. that's it.. enough said already..

then, saturday nite.. mom asked us to get ready for dinner.. selalu camtu.. last2 minit baru nak inform.. hesh.. so we were ready after maghrib.. but my youngest sister was still not back home.. since she was the reason moi mom having this dinner.. and also in conjuction with mother's day last week la.. she had a nite over at her's fren house for hers' birthday party.. but my sister, she has this kind of habit of telling moi mom at the very last minute and rushed out from house (sound a bit familiar like moi mom, rite?).. macam budak2 nak lari dr umah.. and lebih kurang cam biskut chipsmore.. 'now you see, now you don't'.. sepantas2 aku pon idak ler sampai begitu sekali.. sometimes aku pon tak paham la perangai budak2 ni.. why la susah sangat nak honest ngan your parent.. and moi mom pulak dah lepas dia takde tu baru nak mengamuk marah2 mana dia pegi and so on.. apsal tak marah masa dia nak pi tadi? aku usually malas nak masuk campur.. bcos if aku involve sekali nanti jadi mende lain.. melarat ntah ke mana.. last2 aku yg gaduh ngan mak aku.. so due to my temper and impatient yg which I already knew that I will make the scene worst.. usually moi dad would settle this on behalf of my mom.. so my dad call her where was she whereabout during that time.. she was from bangsar (that fren of her has this very socialite mom who is willing to drag her daughter when-ever and where-ever she goes.. aku pon tak penah sampai ke bangsar tu..) ntah party mana dia pi aku tak tau.. plus it was also her's birthday on that sunday.. so maybe she and her fren had planned double birthday party.. I don't know.. so the purpose of the dinner was to celebrate moi youngest sister's birthday.. venue 'actually thai' restaurant sunway pyramid.. I have to thank you ms kay to introduced moi to this place.. which I introduced to moi mom and which she kind of felt in love instantly.. especially with that steamed fish.. even though the price were a bit expensive but I think it's all worth it.. so.. enjoy the piccas.. we had fun though.. laughing and teasing each other.. the food were form in line from one end to another end of the table.. and the waiter had to switched those main courses to make sure everyone on the table got a bit of pieces of everything.. there's how moi weekend went..

royal wedding

The royal wedding : Blissful moments

KUALA KANGSAR: The Raja Muda of Perak Raja Dr Nazrin Shah and Zara Salim Davidson became husband and wife in a brief, simple ceremony at the Istana Iskandariah in Bukit Chandan yesterday.

Raja Muda of Perak Raja Dr Nazrin Shah pronouncing his marriage vows to Zara Salim Davidson before Perak Mufti Datuk Seri Harussani Zakaria. The ceremony was witnessed by Sultan of Perak Sultan Azlan Shah, Raja Permaisuri Perak Tuanku Bainun and guests at Istana Iskandariah in Kuala Kangsar yesterday.

Palace officials carrying nine trays of gifts presented by Raja Muda of Perak Raja Dr Nazrin Shah to Zara Salim Davidson at their marriage solemnisation ceremony at Istana Iskandariah in Kuala Kangsar yesterday.

The ceremony began at 10.30am in the ceremonial room, soon after the arrival of Sultan Azlan Shah of Perak and the Raja Permaisuri Perak Tuanku Bainun.

Orang Kaya Temenggong Paduka Raja Datuk Seri Wan Fathir Wan Hussain, who represented the bride’s family, paid homage to Sultan Azlan Shah and sought his permission to begin the ceremony.

This was followed by the entrance of the royal court attendants with the dowry (mas kahwin) from Raja Nazrin for his bride. This consisted of 250gm of gold wafers and eight trays of gifts, including a diamond ring.

In return the bride’s delegation, led by Datuk Tunku Hamdy Tunku Ahmad Tajuddin, handed over 11 trays of gifts, including a silver ring, to Raja Nazrin’s younger brother Datuk Seri Raja Ashman Shah.

At 11am, the 50-year-old Raja Nazrin, resplendent in a white Baju Melayu and sampin, calmly sat cross-legged on a yellow cushion in front of Perak Mufti Datuk Seri Harussani Zakaria and pronounced the akad nikad once without faltering.

The solemnisation was witnessed by Raja Ashman, Datuk Seri Mohd Salleh Ismail, the husband of Datuk Seri Raja Azureen who is Raja Nazrin’s sister, and some 200 guests.

Moments later, Raja Nazrin went to the next room where 34-year-old Zara, stunning in a lightly coloured long kebaya, was waiting for him to slip the wedding ring on her finger.

Zara kissed Raja Nazrin’s hand while he lovingly kissed her lightly on the forehead.

It was a touching scene at the end of the ceremony as Zara hugged her relatives and wiped away tears of joy, while a beaming Raja Nazrin was congratulated by his siblings and other members of the royal family.

The ceremony was broadcast live to a media centre at Sungai Perak Resort.

Later in the afternoon Raja Nazrin paid a short visit to the media centre and chatted with several of the more than 100 journalists stationed there.

He also inspected the preparations being made for the Jamuan Rakyat, scheduled to be held at the Arena Square, today and tomorrow.

I am the sleepyheads

In the morning, you're Still Sleepy


Sleepyheads like you are the reason they invented the snooze button. "Another five minutes! Just another five minutes." Okay, maybe one more...But eventually you do get up to face the day and arrive wherever you need to be in somewhat decent shape.

That said, after your initial reluctance to get out from under the covers, we'd guess you're pretty eager to get your day going. And while you probably won't be up with the roosters (or at least volunteer to be), you're able to be surprisingly productive before noon. Sometimes you just may need a little nudge or strong cup of coffee to get going. Then you'll be off and running!

road rage to raging bull

I don't know how to start this entry.. bcos I'm still feeling very pissed off since yesterday.. this incident was happened on the way back to my house after work.. I had to make one right turn at this so-called very small junction from the main road.. I'm the first on the line to make that turn, so I waited patiently.. since there were so many cars from the opposite lane, there's no harm to be more patient, right? in view with my impatient driving attitude, at least I give it a thought to sucked-up my ego and waited on the line very very patiently, which was very difficult for a person with this kind of flaw like moi to do.. then, when it was clear to make that turn, I made that turn.. behind me there was this white m*v1 (my bro also has the same color/model vehicle.. so.. I'm not totally biased towards the owner's of this particular car.. just towards this mangkuks driver..) the driver was suddenly impatiently on the rush to overtake my car during that turn (obviously the driver made that right turn same time as moi) on that one small lane road.. and the driver flashed me high beam.. for a few times, if I'm not mistaken.. what was that for? it just showed that whoever it was, just so very pissed with moi who was very slowly take my time (it seemed that time was like forever to the driver) to make the turn and kind of snail-pace to drive along that tiny road.. my car is kind of slow pick-up, I don't deny that.. yet could you just be polite and courtesy on the road? where's the manners? I had no idea who was the driver, either he or she.. bcos it was already dark outside.. I thought I went back home late enough to avoid this kind of situation.. but apparently I was wrong.. I don't like to rush home during rush hour.. I'd rather go home a bit late with smooth and clear road to drive.. but this one particular sicko and saiko driver had proved myself the other way round.. PEOPLE LIKE THEM WILL BE AT ANYWHERE AND ANYTIME.. maybe the sicko and saiko driver got stomach ache badly that he/she couldn't hold up any longer..

the other day I was so pissed with finance dept.. today I was so pissed with IT dept.. I had to kind of use their server room to perform intra-bank transfer.. I would love not to be in this room.. (hopefully coming soon, since the bank will migrate the system to internet based application.. I don't know why they didn't do this earlier and eventually save my life..) back to that room, I needed an access to go into this room and the door needed to be shut at all time.. the problem with my access card.. it took a while to open that stupid door which sometimes I had to stand still there and look like an idiot just to open the door.. due to poor and cheap automatic door the supplier could give with what the stingy co could pay.. technically, I have to shut this stupid door whenever I enter or leave the room.. but what I do is, I go outside and pick-up my print job.. then, go in again to totally disconnect that online banking stuff.. the reason I do this way bcos my print-out usually went missing.. bcos apparently so many people using this ONE printer.. if I disconnect in advance and shut the door, I'll have to re-do the whole thing again if that print-out went missing (which were usually would be the case).. and for sure would be taking forever or equal to the quarter or probably half of my working day.. you think that's enough already to add to my misery life.. NO!.. apparently this particular guy added more burden to what already seemed tricky enough moi to deal with.. it's not that I've been doing this for 1 day.. in fact, it's already been 3 years.. everytime I went out to pick-up that print-out.. he would like purposely shut the door in a very discreet sneaky kind of manners which kind of annoy moi BIG TIME.. it is everytime, people!.. everytime he gets the chance of doing it and everytime he feels like doing it and everytime he thinks that I'm still don't get that the door needed to be shut for security purposes.. like this morning, he was behind me on the way to his place.. I was up to the printer.. he just shut the damn door in that annoying kind of manner sort of ways.. with no professional ethics at all.. for me, it was so rude!!! the best thing, other guys in the same dept, couldn't be bothered with this tiny weeny door thingy.. and here the best part, the room was surrounding with GLASS wall, not solid wall, people! meaning you could see whatever I'm doing inside.. it's only with HIM got this door problem!!! goshhhh.. I walk very fast.. dashing back and forth to the printer and then back again to the room.. as matter of fact, I will/would be gone in a blink of anybody's eyes.. could you just cut me some slack here? plus I'm the one who'd been running around from 1st to 2nd floor just to use this slow snail pace online banking thing.. NOT YOU, YOU SELF-OBSESSED GILA KUASA FREAKO!.. yet you don't have that courtesy or professionalism or even guts to say that you hate to see that door ajar even to 1 inch.. maybe there is a reason why GOD choose me to be so patient with this all kind of unprofessional unethical unettiquette unscrupulous unreasonable unrighteous people.. see, the neverending list of words has just begun for, again same as the above, sicko and saiko.. I would loveeeeee just to lash out at him right there and then.. *I'm holding my tongue very very tight*

and pissed off with my lil bro who had successfully caused some kind of noticing remark on the back of moi car and jammed the cd player.. I'm so tired to be mad at you la..

mother's day

last weekend was mother's day weekend.. some people might think that this day is way over-marketed and over-commercialized and over-rated.. it probably does.. as for moi, I am not entirely agree with that though.. there will be people who'll take advantage to sell more cakes, gifts, wrapping, packaging stuff when mother's day comes.. if there won't be any demand, there won't be any supply, right?.. for me, the purpose of this day is to show our appreciation, gratefulnes and love to our beloved mother.. bcos on our daily mundane routine of running around like mad between working and managing households.. I don't think we have time, not even a second to say 'THANK YOU' or 'I LOVE YOU'.. even if we do, there will be second thought to pursue that gesture.. it's either purely shyness or purely bluntness.. most probably we would ruined the moment to express whatever words we've been meaning to say..

some people might say.. 'we never celebrate mother's day back-in-the-days.. so why now?'.. well, it was the same thing for my family too.. I have to thank to effectively/aggressively delivered ad either on electronic or print media.. now we do know that there is special day designated to celebrate mother and father.. all this information are all shoved to our face (unless you live in a secluded cave withiout access to tv, news, internet or you just such an ignorant person..) and furthermore, it is a good thing to celebrate this day.. it is for a good caused.. should we still deny it? my family will accept whatever thing that'll do more good to us.. for instance, we bought cake for my mom and she was happy with it.. we've made our mother's happy.. so, should we refrain this kind of activity next time? of course not, right? I think it was the least we could do.. I think we do need to change ourselves to celebrate the life of our's mom and dad.. bcos it's easy for us to make that transition compare to our parents.. for one day, let's put all the differences aside and save that tiring row to another time.. so come on, let's do it together.. if they are happy when, for eg, we buy them a cake or treat them with luxurious spa.. so what's you gonna do? just sit around and do nothing while other family treat their's mother to dinner or holiday?.. it's just now, there will be more celebration in the family other than birthday or anniversary.. for me, the most important thing is to make them happy.. that's it.. it will strengthen our love to them and without doubt their undeniable love to us.. but if your parent is so against this idea, maybe there's nothing more you could do.. or you could always try and never give-up.. hopefully, eventually they'll accept whatever you're trying to do.. as of between ourselves and supplier.. it is a win-win situation.. for us, we have a chance to show on how much we love our mother.. and for supplier, they have advantage to offer various kind of gifts for us to choose.. even we know that there will be no material value at all in comparison to our mother's love.. or you could just make your own present if you're so against over-marketed stuff available in the market..

I would like to wish Happy Mother's Day to all my dear frens who are proudly mother themselves.. to my aunties.. one aunty in particular.. I will always respect your dedication to our family.. and last but not least, especially to my mother.. I will always try to be a better person.. thank you for everything.. I love you all!

*suddenly, feeling so very emotional right now*

amazing race & antm winners

finally, the journey were over for this two reality series.. now I can relax and lay back with nothing to worry about.. and there's no need to crack my head guessing who'll win these two series.. which by the way, not really a surprise to me since I already knew the winners ahead ;)



the amazing race all stars edition ~ eric and danielle
eric was very tough on danielle.. he kept pushing and torturing danielle until the finish line.. and it was all worth it.. they'd been thru numbers of unfortunate ordeal during the race.. being yielded twice and being asked to leave the plane which was already on boarding.. very unlucky moment, bcos they were already sit on that plane.. with eric being on the final three twice (lost to the hippies couple on previous race which by the way I'd supported since the beginning of the race.. hehe..), he'd kind of know what they had to do to come-up top of the game.. although they were contantly bickering and yelling to each other.. it was needed in order to complete the tasks.. in a real life, I doubt they'll survive the relationship.. one is a bartender in up east-coast NY and the other one is a waitress in down-south Florida.. huh?.. I don't know.. maybe Eric showed his other side during the show.. we wouldn't never know.. so.. we'll have to wait and see what will happened.. I guessed now we have one more reality couple in addition to rob and amber.. hehe.. honestly, I don't really have a fav pick between those 3 couples: eric and danielle, the beauty queen, charla and mirna.. but if those other 2 wins, it would be cool bcos they were all-girls team.. I would/will vote for girls team.. YOU GIRLS ARE ROCK!



antm ~ final three were eugena, melrose and caridee.. I knew who would be the winner.. I just needed to watch what kind of drama they'd anticipated during the final.. so, eugena like tyra said.. 'where was the hell this girl coming from?'.. she was totally outgoing.. truly showed her opposite side from quiet and reserve to being bubbly and confident.. for me, she truly shines.. only the judge wouldn't like that.. bcos they want her to keep that bubbly criteria all along.. and expect her to bring that up on the photoshoot, everytime.. melrose.. I'm still labelling her as a drama queen.. she was acting 'I KNOW MORE THAN YOU DO' since the beginning.. truly over in everything.. over-confidence, over-doing, over-to-impress-all-judges.. I hate the judges for not able to see the other side of her.. bcos she was gifted to overshadow everthing.. she always did that.. and always strike whenever she tried very hard to impress the judges.. caridee.. for me, who's crazy, unpredictable, minus the diva attitude.. whenever she crossed the line, she'll took a step back from the line.. and admitted that whatever she did was very wrong.. you could see whatever she's doing was natural, pure and honest.. so whatever wrong-doing comes up in the end was totally unintentional.. and bcos that's what who she really is.. caridee and eugena bonded during the final.. shared the same interest to dislike melrose.. unfortunately, it was the end for eugena.. the final was against melrose and caridee.. the final runaway show was bridal gown with horror scary theme.. caridee did exaggerate on the acting stuff during her walk.. with all sort of not-so-pretty-face-expressions.. but for me, she was cool.. melrose.. kind of overreacting when caridee accidently stepped on her's veil and torn it apart.. she was so fussed and fumed with the accident.. see, I was right.. she always always overreacting on that small tiny bitsy stuff.. just concentrate on what you supposed to do la.. heshh.. and she had to be calmed by mr jay.. I don't understand why mr jay didn't bring this stuff up during deliberation session.. bcos he's always report anything happened during photoshoot/runaway show.. nobody could escape from any little tiny mistake they've made.. so I kind of wonder, why?? maybe melrose had overshadowed things.. see.. I told ya.. in the end, who knew that girl with skin diseases since a little girl would be the america's next top model.. bravo caridee!.. you are so much worth it.. and for melrose I'd kind of expected her reaction.. she cried and kept reassuring herself that she was supposed to win due to her hardwork her passions her dreams.. geezz.. enough already with this crap.. wake-up girl.. be real.. don't be too plastic!..

so that was it for the reality shows.. until next season.. now, I could concentrate on the tv comedy/drama series.. and have more time for myself.. yaa.. rite!

golden triangle

 

primer dia (1st day) ~ our flight was from KLIA-Bangkok-Chiang Mai.. we had to transit at Bangkok since there was no direct flight to Chiang Mai.. Bangkok's new airport named Suvarnabhumi... and our transit gate was very far away from the arrival gate.. the airport is not like our KLIA where there's train ride from this one end to the other end of the airport.. luckily it was our way to chiang mai not the way back home.. I'm quite sure if it was on the way back, I don't think we even reach at the gate on time from that long walk.. the journey was about 3 hours.. and it was rocky up there like a roller coster due to bad weather.. I was so scared of my life that I hold tight to both armrests.. prayed and recited all kinds of doas, ayats I could've remember.. even though I'm a frequent flyer (not so frequent la), I still do have goosebumps whenever I fly.. really really do la.. so anyway.. alhamdulillah.. we reached the destination slightly delay but the most importantly safe and sound and so much alive.. after picked-up our luggages.. we were off to dinner.. so very the hungry at that time.. bcos I only ate nasi lemak that morning, and lunch was on the plane.. which was enough to 'alas perut'.. it was better than nothing, kan?.. at this restaurant which is famous for its cultural show.. couldn't remember the name even tho I tried.. Palace something.. and digicam battery was dead at that time.. so couldn't take picture either.. food was served on tray and comprises of fried chicken, ayam masak kicap, fried potatoes, and jelantah... the place was packed with tourists.. all this mat salleh who were waiting for the show to be started at around 9.30pm.. and funny thing happened when I was about to sit on the bench at our table area.. our next table was sitting by french tourists.. this one lady asked me, where was I and the rest of the group from.. and I said 'Malaysia'.. I don't know if she couldn't hear the thing I said bcos it was quite boisterous.. then suddenly she said.. 'OOO.. BRAZIL!'.. and started to speak spanish with me.. aiyoss.. what happened la here.. did I even wear a spaghetti top and short and have really big boobs for people to ogle at and a very tanned skin?.. for one and foremost, do I even look like one? FYI none of the above.. why la this people.. dulu2 moi thought all this mat salleh were all pandai? the truth is NO.. we never and shouldn't think that at all.. in fact we are so much better than them in terms of world geography.. some of them are so close minded and have not even wanting to know what other part of the world's people look like.. interesting moment to start off the journey heh..

(2nd day) ~ in the morning we were off to the famous double dragon temple of Wat Phra Hat Doi Suthep where was located up on the hilly side of chiang mai area.. the temple is overlooking chiang mai city from that peak.. nice view.. and the best part they still preserve this big durian and even jackfruit trees.. which were believed to be more than hundred years old.. we took the cable car up to the temple.. it was very short distance.. from what our tourist guide told us, I thought it seemed like very far away and very steep whatsoever.. yet it was only few minutes journey by the cable car.. and the funny thing happened during our waiting.. out of nowhere appeared this 2 dogs and sibuk berlari2 around us yg tgh waiting on the line.. and this makcik2 from our group pon telah teroverreacted dgn kedatangan tetamu tak diundang ni.. I thought that dogs wouldn't bug us after that.. I was mistaken.. instead of going away, they were both waiting the cable car same like us all.. and would join the ride with us.. if they could like stay still.. it was fine for me.. bcos these dogs were so busy la nak jln sana sini in that tiny small cable car.. it had created frantic hysterical screaming plus ups and downs jumping by this one particular makcik.. thank god my mom was cool.. even so after that she was kind of pissed of jugak.. as for moi, I'm standing at the very back of the cable car.. so I had my mom to cover for moi if the dogs decided to jump at us... aiyak.. luckily there was one lady who'd kind enough to instruct the dogs to stay still.. and she said "I know you're a muslim and you could not touch the dog. I have a fren who is muslim too" and further explained that frantic situation to her frens.. so that frens of her wouldn't be puzzled why la makcik2 yg cantik2 belaka ni menjerit2 kat this 2 dogs.. hahaha.. so funny... then we were off to honey factory, silk factory, leather factory and gem factory.. takde shopping apa pon cos semuanya mahal.. all standard place maa.. manaleh shopping.. cuma honey tu jek bcos it's pure one.. moi mom some bought stuff kat situ cos telah tergoda dgn minah yg buat sales.. speaking dia tu ada slang yg pelik.. pastu pakcik2 makcik2 semua dok gelakkan dia.. jahat gilos.. after dinner at nite.. aku dgn gatalnya nak pi massage.. I never been tu massage or spa or whatever theraputic stuff nilah.. and our tourist guide suggest this one massage parlour where using only traditional and ancient techniques.. not like the modern one.. I thought I give it a shot.. and my mom also dah start sakit2 badan la itulah inilah.. end-up after massage aku yg sakit badan.. mmg giler sakit.. tobat tak pi lagi.. cara dia tu lain dr yg lain.. tak tau la camner nak explain.. pi sendiri la baru tau..

tercer dia (3rd day) ~ we started the journey early in the morning to Chiang Rai.. it took around 3 hours.. very far away.. moi was sleeping along the way bcos bosan dah tak tau nak tgk mende.. tgk mende sama.. paddy fields.. hutan.. kampung.. vege patches.. itu jelah.. if ada snowy mountain ke.. best gak...

adelante dia (4th day) ~ up close and personal with elephants at Maesa Elephant Camp.. itu gajah sangat pandai lagi cerdik.. suka aku tgk.. then, we were off to persian carpet and silk factory.. where none of us buy even a single thing there due to its oversteep price.. then to umbrella factory and orchid farm.. well, it were educational tour rather than shopping tour... since we still have time before dinner and we were on the way back to the hotel around 2pm.. after lunch.. we asked the driver to dropped us off at the Central Plaza Mall.. it is the most happening mall here in Chiang Mai.. and off to this particular department store called Robinson.. my mom and her frens of course la very looked forward to go to this store.. this store were exist on 70-80s in KL.. but vanished during 90s.. they were planning to buy all kind of undergarment here bcos of the quality.. something like that.. so anyhow.. we were there for probably around 2 hrs.. then after that took a tut-tut back to hotel.. we went for dinner and Hunan Muslim restaurant.. the food were all good.. I noticed that we'd been to a tiny weeny restaurant.. not a very fancy one.. but the food were all good and delicious.. except the 1st restaurant we'd been to, with cultural show, dancing and everything but the food were so and so.. not the best one..

quinto dia (5th day)~ final day in chiang mai.. we woke-up early in the morning spirited and excited to do our last final shopping.. we went to the nearest market.. after asking front-desk on where is it located.. and also from our fellow group members.. we were off by foot to the market.. I think the location of wet and dry market were side by side.. we end-up at the wet market first.. then after 5 minutes walking, we reached the dry market.. my mom, in the last minute as usual, was looking a blouse for herself.. yeah, we found one.. and I got myself 'Di0r' loafer.. after non-stop bargaining with the salesgirl who didn't speak english.. she had to asked another salesgirl to become translator.. I thought I would get a really good bargain since it was the last pair.. but she'd just refuse.. and just I'm ready to take-off.. afraid that we would be late to pack our luggages.. finally, she gave me the price I asked.. and off we went back to our hotel.. on the way, bought some souvenirs since I couldn't find some earlier..

may I see you again, Chiang Mai...

moving out..

so very tired this week.. even though it'll be a day-off tomorrow.. itu pon our HR so very discreet to announce the day-off.. ntah apa2.. bcos I had lend my hands to move out our collegue's stuff from their's designed room outside of the main office.. and this is for the 3rd or 4th time ladies and gentleman!. I couldn't even remember when was the last time we moved.. I'm just so bumped yesterday! moi and my collegue were struggling to move this one cabinet.. I wouldn't say its heavy.. but it was kind of heavy.. me and my other colleague who are both girls, ok.. the best thing was ALL of the gentlemen in the office (I would stick to ALL IN THE OFFICE... not MOST IN THE OFFICE..) just stared at us when we even hardly reached the main entrance due to heaviness of the cabinet.. and without even blink in their eyes!.. just stared and mumbled something between themselves.. why am I not surprised with their's expression heh?.. shouldn't we get any help at all? so not gentlemen la you guys..

*this entry was intended to be posted before the Agong's installation holiday on 26 April.. due to my busy-ness to prepare all those crappy reports for company's month-end closing... and as a result of the office contruction, there was disruption to office's server which therefore led to snail-pace operation for internet and to whatever online applications.. that was the reason why I just couldn't make it happened on time.. and before I ventured into my vacation on that Agong's day until wesak & labor holidays which I did mentioned on my past entry..*

maybe I should study these...

I got this from ngantukalways.. I think it would make you think outside of the box on what exactly you should've done and what you should've been.. it just a guidance though, but a very good and useful one.. maybe there's still time to revise on what you're doing currently.. and reevaluate everything.. there's no harm.. and who knows maybe a good thing will come up from this, right? and special thanks to ngantukalways who discovered upon this stuff..

Your Learning Style: Personal and Passionate

You are very flexible and curious about the world. Human understanding is very important to you. You Should Study: Anthropology ~Quote definition from dictionary (since I want to know exactly what the hell is this): 'The scientific study of human beings, traditionally identified as a ‘four-field’ discipline, encompassing archaeology, social and cultural anthropology, biological anthropology, and even linguistics.' moi?? seriously?? hmm.. make sense jugak.. bcos sometimes I do love to learn more about different cultures.. if I do archeology pon best gak, cos I can be very patience being involved on this kind of work.. once I started on something, I will do whatever it takes to finish it.. I'll hate myself to do it half-half.. that's why I am a perfectionist.. (try to be one la.. even not nearly one..) Architecture ~ hmm.. how on the earth I could be one of those architect.. I don't really think I have that artistic thingy going on la.. but you never know what exactly you can do, unless you start to try.. like one of my fren, whom I would say same-o like me.. you could see if that person artistic enough like for eg from their's room decoration.. my fren and I are minimalise.. and no art work whatsoever posted anywhere on our's wall.. yet now, she has to be creative and artistic to accomplish her job and eventually to get pay for whatever she has designed.. maybe there's different with being creative or being artistic.. I just don't know.. Art ~ no skill at all to do art thingy.. same as moi commentary above.. I am more into a logic thingy.. maybe it's not too late to start on this creative and artistic thing.. when the hell I'm going to start it, I have no clue at all.. Art history ~ I took art history class at SLU.. and it was very interesting.. since it was summer class, our lecturer made a trip to downtown.. for us to explore architecture, art and history on different buildings.. whether its new or ancient one.. it was so much fun.. class outside of classroom.. learn more about about baroque, victorian, dome, classical, rococo architectures that was designed for the whole building and interior design as well.. Art therapy ~ I don't know if this is a good one.. bcos I'm not really into this therapy thingy.. Classics ~ huh?? what kind of classic is this? Counseling ~ maybe I can and I could.. bcos I'm a very good listener.. Foreign Languages and Literature ~ foreign language is a 'YES'.. it seems that I don't really have that specific talent.. might as well, I learn to speak different language.. so far, I have arabic basic since I was educated on this stream on high school.. maybe I should've started to polish it from now on.. and very interested to learn on Korean, Spanish, French, Italian, Germanian, Japanese, Russian languages..(waa.. very ambitious..) International Studies ~ meaning I took the right major la.. altho mine was International Business.. not international studies.. hmm.. maybe there's a slight different.. hopefully not the major one (I don't want to feel bad with what I've decided for my major) Linguistics ~ aiyooss... can I? I'm still struggling to hang on to the basic english language.. let alone to further and venture into linguistics.. waa... it seems like scary merry to me.. even tho it's part of anthropology.. Literature ~ hmm.. moi sangat lembap la bab2 literature nih.. seriouslyyy!.. sastera melayu pon aku tak lepas.. camner tu? Psychology ~ sibling of counseling.. maybe can.. took the class in college.. and aced the subject.. bravo! Sociology ~ the extended family of anthropology.. can also la.. took the class in college.. but the lecturer was babbling a lot.. I'd kind of lost my patience in that class.. I'd felt like raised my hand and say to him 'could you please go straight to the point, I'm kind of lost here'.. Teaching ~ moi sooo not the very patient one la.. maybe lecturer can.. if to teach kindergarden or high school children, definitely cannot.. abis rosak anak orang aku kerjakan..

What Should You Study?

vanilla-ology

Working within the team and behind the scenes, you can be counted on to do the work it takes for the group to succeed, but you don’t crave the spotlight or attention of center stage. ~ very true

While stability and safety are crucial in your relationships, you like to add a little flair with your choice of vanilla. ~ maybe correct.. how would I know.. you should ask my future partner.. bcos as of right now, I don't have one..

Your vanilla is Dreyer's French Vanilla. You’re most romantically compatible with other French Vanilla lovers. ~ hmm.. maybe true jugak la.. moi kind of difficult to get along with a person who has different character than mine.. very comfortable with a person who is very alike myself.. is that bad??

You remind us a lot of Bree Vandekamp from Desperate Housewives and our dear friend Cal Ripkin. ~ moi, Bree?? waaa.. seriously?? out of the blue la this one.. Bree is a classic example of THE DOMESTIC GODDESS.. she knows everything, does all housework chores by herself.. who doesn't want to be like her? am I right?


my result below was magnified from the picture above:

The Ice Cream: Dreyer's French Vanilla
Flavor Profile: Distinctive, Yellow and Egg-Flavoured
The Personality: A Team Player
The French Vanilla lover is a loving and supportive spouse who functions best in familiar, safe and secure relationships. They don't crave novelty in either romantic or nonromantic social relationships. Extremely and admirably humble, French Vanilla lovers tend to avoid the spotlight and work best within group settings. Those who prefer French Vanilla are most romantically compatible with others who also prefer French Vanilla.

awww.. I'm so flattered with the result.. even though vanilla is not my favorite flavor.. anyway, thank you dreyer's.. you've made my day!!

ice cream, anyone?

moi and my ex-housemate and other frens had this conversation thru email this morning.. at first the story was about congrats note to one of our fren's newborn.. then, it has expanded to molten choc @ ch*llis during our not-so-long-ago luncheon gathering... and finally, ice-cream.. since so many of my frens are expecting this year.. so, our story revolves around thing(s) they feel like eating (not moi, since moi takde perasaan nak makan apa.. belasah jek apa depan mata).. tau jelah orang mengidam nih.. at st l*uis, there is this one famous homemade ice-cream parlour.. no franchise whatsoever in the states.. you would never find the same thing, I would say the same brand la.. kang cakap paling sedap, ada pulak yg lebih sedap.. even if you do the cross-country searching.. you could find ted drewes frozen custard only at st lo*is city.. plus to make it super special, they have only 2 outlets, one located at grand blvd.. since grand blvd is the same main road with our's apt, so it was easy for us to go.. but open during summer only and the smallest outlet.. the other one located at chippewa.. it's open all year long, maybe close during bad weather or during holiday season.. this one is the happening one.. moi remember our first time went to buy that ice-cream.. it was quite far from SLU.. (this must be at chippewa).. so, it was quite a journey for us.. it was kind of cold jugak that time.. tapi peduli apa.. my favorite, of course the one and only banana split.. they would serve on this large container.. and moi usually mesti kena share with someone to finish it.. if nak tunggu aku abiskan memang lambat.. by the time I'm done with mine, others must've been beku, when we went on winter season la ni.. of course I could finish them all.. moi bab2 makan ni memang tak penah tak abis.. unless my stomach couldn't take it no more.. or there's something wrong with what I eat.. and there was one more favorite called fox treat, full of macadamia nut and raspberries.. waa, yummy yummy!!.. and you could also make your own combination.. so, we would eat our ice-cream in the car if it snowing or freezing cold outside.. or just braved ourselves with that wind chill blowing to our face which would feel like knife cutting thru our skin.. summer season, that place would be jammed-packed with people, with no parking spot available... and there would be this very long queue.. kids with their's parent, grandpas, grandmas, uncles, aunties, a bunch of teenagers and a bunch of college students like us.. waiting on the line for their turn to order while chattering gleefully and joyfully with their's accompany..


one more of our's favorite was from the local groceries store.. and most of the time, it must be on sale 'buy one free one'.. it would be either schnuck's (the groceries' own brand) or dreyer's.. the cost would be around USD5 gituh.. for 2 carton.. see.. so very cheap one.. during our groceries shopping, ice-cream was one of the MUST BUY thing.. my housemate the one couldn't live without ice-cream.. moi the one couldn't live without coffee.. hehehe.. ok people.. so, there you go.. the colorful ice-cream stories..

p/s: moi rendered my sincerest apology to all my expectant-newborn-mommy frens for this entry.. it was completely unintentional.. ;)

mumbo jumbo

hari melepaskan geram.. pagi2 semua org seemed to pester me with all kind of questions.. tempat duduk aku tak panas lagi this morning, ok people!!.. aku dah keje ngan system berapa lama.. with all kind of database.. so I know la.. if system says black.. it's black.. if it says white.. it's white.. no twisted turning around pekejadahnya ke.. takde nak tukar kaler jadi magenta, cyan, turqoise memang takde.. so cek la status tu dulu.. before nak pester2 me with these kind of questions.. aku kan memang tension gilos hari ni.. nak kena layan soalan yg sama tiap2 hari.. if dah pagi2 start gitu.. memang seharian la aku akan bad mood.. *sigh*.. penat dan letih tau nak jawab.. nak kata IQ semua rendah... tak jugak.. nak kata buta IT.. tak jugak.. could you be more detail ke.. tengok betol2 what is your vehicle status before tanya soalan2 mengarut gitu.. that's my problem with dealer..

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

with colleague pulak.. nak kata company kecik tak jugak.. tapi memang tak masuk dek akal.. bila department yg paling besar sekali dlm company ni, ada 2 org jek exec.. korang leh caya tak? dulu aku sorang jek yer.. pastu ada sorang kakak ni dah lama giler keje and keje pon bagus.. dapat la naik pangkat ke exec.. tapi dia memang takleh nak dikacau la.. takleh nak tambah keje cos dia jaga invoicing.. memang in nature her work sudah tersedia berlambak.. so apa2 keje selain daripada tu.. campak kat aku.. I don't mind la, ok people.. memang tak kisah.. tapi since the system upgraded ni, semua org macam tak puas hati cos bertambah byk keje nak kena buat.. sbb nak kena use this new system.. plus nak kena gak guna ancient system yg bodoh itu.. yg didesigned by programmer yg supposed to be all pandai, and gaji more than us exec cabuk.. despite that every figure yg kitorang nak retrieve, kena dikira manually, boleh?.. so orang yg buat system tu bodoh ke pandai?? kalau dah kena kira manual, tak payah susah2 pegi buang masa buat system.. tolong jek kitorang ni kira figure yg beribu2 manually, nak?? so what is useful about that system anyway? bukan ke that system suppose to help us expedite our work.. yet it's the other way around... pastu aku ni boleh kata macam trainer la.. semua org tak paham.. aku yg kena ajar.. I don't mind that too.. cuma sometimes, IT'S TOO MUCH!!! aku kena trained dealer and colleague.. sbb exec yg jaga system ni aku sorang jek.. yg lain semua clerk.. aku takde la kata diorang ni tak pandai.. tapi kan penat la nak kena ajar banyak2 kali.. aku memang pantang buat keje yg sama banyak2 kali.. cos my way of doing it, is do it all once but in PERFECT condition.. sbb tu if bos suruh amend itu amend ini banyak2 kali, aku fed-up.. sbb bila first time aku buat tu, memang dah all-out.. I give 150% effort on that.. bila kena tukar byk2 kali.. apa kejadah keje yg aku buat tu? tak wasting your time, your sweat?

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

pastu finance dept yg mangkuks.. aku nak guna 1 recycle paper pon berkira.. alasannya.. P&C.. if P&C buat apa jadikan paper tu recycle paper.. pi laa shred.. shredder kan ada.. budusss takk?? lupa lak nak inform si penyibuk yg bank statement aku print tu utk finance dept.. and 1 page jek yer kawan2.. bukan sampai 10 pages pon.. and as if dept aku ni dtg from planet lain.. takde kena mengena ngan company yg dia keje.. and as if company tu company bapak dia.. if takde dept aku, tak bergaji la korang yg lain.. yg tegur aku tu is assistant manager yg sungguh unprofessional, unetiquette, uneducated.. yg mari from hulu bagan kampung mana aku tak tau.. jinjang mali punya.. orang asli yg dok dlm pedalaman tu pon, sungguh ada adab sopan compare to her.. this is a perfect example of why this kind of people shouldn't be one of the top management in the company.. bcos of the attitude.. this kind of people also yg telah made my brother, yg selalunya sungguh calm dlm menghadapi apa jua rintangan dan cabaran.. came out with this idea, he wants to move out of the country bcos of this unprofessional people he has to deal with everyday.. even so their title reads as someone with big shot position in the company.. ooOOOO.. like I'm so scared of you bcos of your title!! budusss... with that title minus the manner, you ain't going nowhere la my friend.. when so many people seem to disrespect you like as much as I did.. you are the only yg tak nampak.. so buta huruf buta hati buta segala.. please take note!! this stuck-up people should be lock-up somewhere in the dungeon i.e. tower of london.. or ship off to different planet without any living creature.. geezzz... benciss aku..

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

apparently, ada colleague yg bermasam muka.. I kind of perasan la.. cos diorang ni tercampak jauh from semua org.. and biasanya bersuka ria bergurau senda bertepuk bertampar berbagai.. lately, bila aku masuk bilik tu cam sunyi sepi jek.. bunyi radio pon takde.. aku tak tau la if aku sorang jek ke yg perasan.. tapi aku rasa ada la org yg perasan.. cuma didn't say anything.. aku dengan selamba badaknya pegi tanya.. only masa aku lunch ngan one party jelah.. if 2 parties ada kat situ.. takkan la nak tanya kan.. mengaibkan la pulak.. tak baik.. so, it seemed that I was right... and her fren yg mkn bersama2 ni cam tak caya time aku tanya tu.. cos boleh tanya balik camner I know.. hey, aku ni lagi tua from korang la.. aku tau la.. even though I kind of hating it, when older people claim that they are wiser and older, makan garam dulu la whatsoever.. so, I kind of hating myself to admit it.. but that saying is true, kan?? cuma you have to use it in the right way... jangan simply2 guna, even utk mende2 bodoh yg ko buat yg kononnya perasan super cool, nak ngaku yg ko tu makan garam dulu.. so, itulah.. pastu her fren ni cakap lagi.. 'pandai yer akak teka'.. aku ni nampak jek macam tak tau, blur memanjang.. tapi sebenonya aku tau, cuma malas nak amik tau.. sbb apa diorang bermasam muka tu, malas la nak korek lebih lanjut lagi.. 2 2 pon mulut boleh tahan.. ada la something she said yg sorang terasa.. or the vice versa.. that's why la aku tak suka sangat menggedik and socialize melampau sangat ngan people.. bcos this is what I'm trying to avoid.. bcos mulut aku pon boleh tahan gak.. takut ada org tak sanggup nak dengo and terasa lak.. tapi aku rasa org2 yg gini, yg mulutnya laser, sebenarnya honest compare to org2 yg manis mulut tapi talam 2 muka.. so which one do you choose? nak berkawan pon kena jaga tatatertib, adab, sopan santun.. jangan nak ter'over' sangat.. bila dah ter'overreacting' mesti akan ada drama2 lain yg menyusul.. which will spoil the relationship later on in the future.. you would never know, kan??.. hmm.. even though kawan2 aku, perangai semua lebih kurang, mulut lasernya pon sama, tapi kitorang ni takde heart feeling sangat.. cos kawan dah lama benor.. dah paham ngan perangai masing2.. even so marah sangat ngan kawan tu, senyap sekejap jek.. pastu cakap balik ngan dia.. if ada terasa, cepat2 say sorry, ok.. jangan tunggu lama2.. cos the moment is gone when you wait and biar begitu sahaja..

children movies weekend

moi telah melayan cerita kanak2 on the weekend.. memang takde keje.. nak buat keje lain memang pemalas.. plus takde orang kat umah.. so might as well la aku jadi potato couch sementara org takde.. even masa2 biasa pon.. still, I'm the first one will be in front of that idiot box.. and the last one to go to sleep.. see.. betapa boringnya hidup aku.. tak adventourus langsung...

anyway.. memula layan citer 'gentle ben, terror on a mountain' on hallmark channel.. ben itu ialah sunshine bear... yg telah befriended with this one boy.. who'd lost his parent in accident.. so, his uncle who's a ranger of this one famous reserved park.. yellowstone kot.. or nevada ke.. or arizona ke.. ntah tak tau.. he got custody for this boy.. sorry for the bablement.. moi tak follow dr mula.. it was already half way when I watched.. I know this story cos my mom and kids dah melayan cerita ni aritu.. ntah camner moi boleh tertinggal.. plus moi mana suka tengok tv ramai2.. best layan sorang2.. so, the boy, his name also couldn't remember.. mark kot.. hehe.. he saved ben who had trapped in an old mining area.. apparently, ben had separated from his family.. and wandered off from grizzly valley.. the place where his family should be.. and ended-up at the mining area.. which was near the neighbourhood.. apparently, one of the villager's sheep got attacked.. and they blamed this poor bear.. so, mark was on a rescue mission to save the bear from the sheep's owner.. and the worst wildlife enemy, poacher.. it seemed that mark didn't has any friend.. and ben was the only who listen to him.. literally, he'd kind of listen to whatever mark's said.. that bear was a brilliant actor.. so comel sangat.. moi would fell whatever story on animal.. I simply cannot see whatever barbaric thing happen to any animal.. one time, I cried when I watched this group of elephant left laid on the ground, been slaughtered and their's tusks went missing, been chopped-off by barbaric poachers.. you killed that big gigantic animal just for that tiny weeny tusks?? what a waste of life.. in fact, what a waste of everything.. our ecosystem will be disrupted by doing just that, am I right or not? maybe I should be a volunteer with WWF, kan??.. heshh.. memang aku emotional bab2 ni..

then, I saw on info this movie titled 'Thief Lord'.. I knew it was the same with a book written by Cornelius Funke.. and I read it.. the story was about a brother named Prosper who had to rescue his little brother, Bo from their's evil uncle and aunt.. run to Venice, to fulfill their mother's dream to live in the city where all magical things happen.. so, they were rescue by this one boy, same age as Prosper, who called himself 'Thief Lord'.. it seemed that he is the famous thief on the city... and he got a big job from the Conte to steal one of the broken wings of the magical meryl-go-round.. the meryl-go-round had 5 winged magical animals.. unicorn, lion.. I couldn't remember the other 3.. if someone wants to grow older or to become younger one more time, they could take a ride on this meryl-go-round.. since I've already read the book.. I loved the story.. only on the movie, it was just kind of flat.. everything was flat.. macam bosan sikit.. and there were missing pieces here and there.. I'd kind of recalled the story when the scene started to jumping around.. and I didn't even know they already produced a movie out of this book.. I'm a big fan of children books as well.. maybe I didn't have that chance to read and to discover what's happening in children's world when I was young.. I'm a late bloomer, ya all.. so, please.. cut me some slack, will you? right now, I'm waiting for the final book of Harry Potter series.. I have them all.. and read them all too.. it were so fascinating.. so, whatever you people say.. I just don't care.. sorry about that!

nagging...

I'd kind of 'ter'watched this movie on box office channel.. I knew what was the story.. it became quite famous due to its controversial debut.. or maybe that was one of the marketing tactics to persuade people to watch.. hmm.. ok.. this is how I'm gonna say it.. I don't really care if you want to fill-up your movie with sexual explicit contents whatsoever... cos you were assuming it would sell and kind of related to your story.. so, I don't really care on that part.. what I do care is, the mix-up messages you convey in the movie itself.. so, by doing that, you mix-up the 'hukum' too.. since that's what your story was all about..

I think that's the tricky part.. in a way you want to say.. oo... that polygamy is 'halal'.. yes, that is very true.. despite that, ada one scene yg tak masuk dek akal.. where it showed, this pak aji (who had 4 wives..) and his first wife (siap pakai tudung.. ada scene tunjuk dia solat berbagai.. a very true muslim I would say..), who were frequent visitors to this hawker stall which sells 'itik berempah' or something like that.. innocent enough heh? the owner of the hawker stall was k*t*lik.. then, it showed this one scene where that itiks bergelimpangan mati on the table, still with heads, ready to be cooked.. this pak aji and his wive(s) would buy this itik berempah and eat together2.. memang enak sekali katanya.. sampai sesiapa sahaja datang akan terus kembali ke stall ini kerana rempahnya yg special itu.. I wouldn't dare to think what was in the secret recipe.. (even though it was only a movie..)

I'm so very observant people.. so there, right there!!.. you want to tell a story on this 'halal' one.. yet you mix-up with this 'haram' one.. maybe you kind of overlooked that small crucial part ke.. I don't know.. or maybe you simply didn't care bcos that scene wouldn't draw a major effect in the movie.. ok fine.. but for me, the movie failed to justify and failed to represent what is 'hukum halal'.. please do convey that 'halal' one, all the way out.. jgn buat half-half.. there is and will be NO half 'halal' or half 'haram'.. and please jgn ada mix-up with the 'haram' thing.. that's what I'm trying to say.. for me, the halal is just plain halal.. the haram is just plain haram.. it's that simple.. no confusion, no tricky, no hiding stuff whatsoever.. there will be NO compromise on mixing this hukums thingy, ok!!.. I'd just kind of curious, that's why I watched the movie.. only not until its finished.. bcos towards the end.. the scene became sooo steamy.. so I decided to stop.. and that was it.. I don't know la if they thought.. ooo.. itu itik sembelihan ahli kitab pulak.. when I was in the states.. I'm used to this kind of thought, the ahli kitab sembelihan.. so it was up to you guys to decide.. ramai la gak kawan2 aku yg makan 'katok' nih.. for myself, as long as I wouldn't die, to have to live the life without that easy and furthermore cheap meat consumption, I'm fine!.. plus there are ways to obtain this all 'halal' stuff.. maybe it'll difficult, but that's experience will help you to become a better person, don't you think??.. life is difficult.. so what?? you have to learn to find ways to solve it, for every single day.. and even so, if there will be no way at all, there are other thousand things you can eat.. veges, fruits, grains and so on.. so, that's it.. I would never watch that movie again.. maybe it was just me, who already feels very very very nagging..

ironically

This week I had to stayback in the office until 8++pm.. why?? even so, my bos is not around for 2 weeks off to his honeymoon, even so, he is not the bossy type, I had to entertain these requests from hq company to compile all sort of this ancient figures.. which I had to dig from the ancient system as well.. and calculate them manually!! it was more than 10K figure, I tell yaa!! maybe this was a jinx... remember my last entry on thought(s).. I'd kind of begging this stuff to appear.. I don't mind that part.. at least I have something to do.. the only thing that was bugging me is.. the way how to retrieve that figure.. it was a very long way.. using this ancient system.. goshhh!!! please forbid this kind of system in the future.. it was a mess, a pain in the ass.. bla bla bla.. and the list was endless..

on top of that, I had to entertaining and compiling number of reports for my own department's GM.. and suddenly, nowadays, he is not so shy to talk to me.. and ask me to do various kind of things... you just name it.. to amend the report.. to amend the report for the 3rd time.. to amend the report again for the 10th time.. ok, maybe I'm exaggerating a bit.. sometimes I feel like it is sooo useless... to fix that little tiny number.. I'm fully aware of the damage it will done.. but sometimes I do feel like.. goshh... it's not worth it.. what an ironic!! I thought when my immediate boss is not around.. I kind of have time to layback a bit.. but it was the other way around.. as I'm writing this, I'm still in the office.. it's almost 10pm already.. even if I'll stay till midnite, the job still couldn't get done.. and for the first time ever, I had to come to work on saturday.. what a history!!!

things I bought

whilst I had the busiest weekend meeting with old frens.. I'd managed to get a few thing for myself.. dalam takde duit.. sempat aku bershopping.. hahaha.. lantak ler.. asalkan bahagia..

I'd been aiming at this one pant which is sold at RS outlet.. and since I laid eyes on that particular pant, I had been surveying mostly every RS located in nearby area.. s*bang p*rade, b*kit r*ja, ou.. you named it.. bcoz the one that I found either in size 14 or 16.. what the heck!!! for those yg don't know.. I'm so into this working pant, clean cut one.. not too much flare or bell bottom whatsoever.. just the simple straight cut.. but nowadays, it's almost impossible to find the one with decent cut.. they are either very tight one, yg if I wear will be like a 'sarung nangka' which I hate.. bcoz it will shows all the fat and cellulite flabbering from my thighs area.. yg which telah menunjukkan dirinya secara obvious lately.. itu yg menyebabkan aku gain weight ok kawan2..

secondly, the other reason I might think of, is the size cutting kat mesia ni.. sungguh la aku tak paham.. ada 4 yg aku leh wear.. ada yg half way there.. and ada yg tak masuk langsung!! and every brand yg made from mesia i.e. p*dini, s*da has that same kind of design, look, cutting and so on.. I know this bcoz when I first started working, I had been into this shopping trip searching for this pant.. went from one store to another.. spent hours in fitting room.. and with frustration to no avail!! that's why I cut out buying any pant from these brand.. bcoz I already know, first, I can never wear it.. secondly, even so I can, the pant is horrible on me.. I kind of menyampah ladies yg pakai tudung yet the pant is soooooo sendat teramat.. same goes with the blouse.. aku yg tengok tak bernafas.. please laaaaaaaa.. if it happen that's how you like/want to wear, take off the tudung.. easy solution.. aku yg tgk tak sakit mata.. and tak tambah dosa mengata.. *sigh*

back to pant story.. since my mission is to find that particular pant in my size.. which is 4 or 6 in US standard size.. (since I'm used to it.. don't care what other people say..) memang selalu yg in these 2 sizes susah giler nak ada.. kalo ada pon the design is so hideous.. luckily, when I'm in my first tour at i*i mall, I'd managed to step in the RS outlet and found the pant which located nearby the entrance.. and to my joy... it's available in my size too.. the only size 6 available.. yeaaa!! finally!! it cost only RM39.90.. and my hunch said the brand is g*p.. and I checked the hook, and it says G*P.. woHOooo.. double score!! how would I know the brand even the label was cut off??.. I'd learn a lot about brand's label from my, I would say regularly shopping trips to the mall in the states.. specific brands would be g*p, b*nana republic, j*rew, c*sual c*rner, *nn t*ylor etc.. so, I kind of know the label color.. for ie g*p's and *nn t*ylor label would be in blue.. b*nana rep would be in brown.. so, if you curious to know what brand are you buying from this factory outlet store, the rejected stuff (I would say the minor defect stuff.. not entirely rejected la..).. let me know.. maybe I know what is the brand name!!

and the other thing I bought is... ermm.. should I say this.. it was a pair of shoe.. I bought it bcoz it was on sale.. and I'd been aiming to this shoe since it made first appearance last year.. don't remember la exactly when.. but at that time, not worth to buy bcoz the price was too expensive.. now, it was on sale!! so, if you would be me.. should you just ignore it and think about it in your dreams???? if I be me, hell no!!!

girl's weekend out

saturday updates.. went to meet girls from college days.. we had lunch at ou chil*s.. I'm the most late person arrived.. hahaha.. sorry you guys.. something came up.. had to drop a report which needed urgently by finance dept (kononnya..).. then, I'd heard that they still couldn't do anything with the report without daily bank statement print-out.. penat aku jek berkejar ke sana ke mari... as if no other working days ahead.. anyway.. it was fun (I mean, the makan2..).. I had chicken basil pasta (if not mistaken..) and tak best coz makan sorang2.. ken who was arrived a bit earlier (by few minutes) than me.. had order fajitas.. she'd having trouble to feed herself bcoz of, I wouldn't say earlier pregnancy stage.. bcoz it has been 5 months.. what a pity!! kesian ken tak dapat nak makan.. so ended up I'm eating alone and shared my plate with ken.. since she'd so clueless on what to eat even she'd got the fajitas.. meanwhile other girls did all the talking..

this what I would describe the girls since the first day I met about 10~12 years ago in comparison to our gathering last week..

liza ~ very pretty, beautiful mom yet the tomboyish character(s) were/are still there.. she would make frens with all sorts of people.. I'm her room's neighbour back in bangi.. and we'd always bumped into each other on the way to restroom.. bcoz we were neighbour with the restroom as well..

grunge ~ memang grunge.. she's the quite type.. more or less like moi.. yet the kind of person who would/will be perfect for this saying 'diam2 ubi berisi'.. hehehe

ken ~ closed with her since our unis were at the same town.. whenever I popped at her uni, it would be her place, first thing in mind, to let myself crashed at.. and the other way around.. when she went to downtown, she would crashed at my place..

faten ~ the maintain mom.. with 1.5 kids.. hehehe... I would say she's kind more or less like me in terms of character.. sometimes the evil inside of us would like to burst out without a further delay.. not the very patient one.. easily to provoke.. even for the simplest thing.. usually in the chatroom.. maybe not in real life.. hopefully.. that was way back in the days heh..

farid ~ the sukahati one.. who likes to eat.. hahaha.. very artistic one, and very I would say... the tak kisah one la.. even though she had this very 'pemalas' roomate (namely moi..) I would say we would be a great partner.. bcoz whatever I'm lazy to do.. she's the one who'd usually step-up and offering herself on whatever suppose to be done.. and I would do different things.. eg dia rajin masak.. aku rajin kemas after dia masak.. so, makan sama2 la kan??.. of course.. ataupon ada udang di sebalik batu.. dia nak guna my pc for ber'tenet's session.. that's why kena buat baik ngan moi.. hahaha.. jahat aku!

moi ~ during college days, pemalas yg suka tido siang and berjaga malam (kononnya stay-up to study..) so lazy to cook yet very particular about cleanliness of the kitchen and the entire house.. I would say I am the freak-neurotic-stone-cold, in appearance only maa.. deep deep down inside.. if you really want to know the answer, you have to ask the people who are close and still around me until today..

*for pictures, please go to farid's blog under Girls Day out entry on 2nd April 2007.. I would take credit on the story and farid would take credit on the piccas of our's little gathering.. so enjoy them while you can!!*

sunday updates.. I woke-up due to annoying phone ringing.. who the hell was calling me early on this wee morning hours.. and had disrupted the lack-of-sleep-beauty-queen (heh.. perasan.. ).. moi was up until almost 4am that morning to entertained my dearest fren's and my sis's smses.. my fingers went totally numb from that marathon-contantly-handphone-button-pressing.. plus it was raining that morning.. so, that was one more reason to snuggle comfortably under the comforter.. it was ewok, who'd been calling me, and kind of insisted me to get-up since she was at erny's house.. she had this, I dunno if I should called it blind-date or whatsoever.. not blind date la.. just a date, with one of her online's fren.. this guy was apparently one of the big shot person in AF5 management team.. hahaha.. ewok ditched him bcoz he'd too busy to entertained her.. so, she called erny in rescue.. and crashed at her place for the nite.. on sunday, she called me and asked me a favor to drop her at i*i mall puch*ng.. since her ride would be waiting there.. she came from JB with her 2 officemates, who had wedding invitation at puch*ng.. so, I had to find my way to go there.. bcoz I never really drive alone, by myself around that area.. luckily, I got this precise direction from my bro on how to get there.. thank you for that.. (I simply love people who give a very precise direction.. bcoz if you would say turn left.. which left is that? if there's 10 left turns, then I will take that all 10.. see.. very lurus bendul tak aku?.. let me know which one's is the left.. the 3rd one or the 10th one.. ).. we were lepaking at the starbucks and chit-chatting on latest news since our last meeting was way back in december.. from B2M concert to her's online date(s).. then, she took-off around 4pm and left me alone to discover that mall.. which was my first experience to step inside.. so there went my busiest weekend..

*p/s: next time, at least let me know in advance when you're in town*
