Hari Raya Hols Updates

First of all, I would like to wish my friends and readers a happy Eid-ul-Fitr. Whatever wrong doings I've done for this past year, please do fogive me as I extend my humbleness to apologize. Ok. Enough of being goodie and all that - let's get to the updates part.


I flew to Miri on the 15th evening and because it's festive season, it was normal to have my flight delayed - by half an hour. And I was bored, really. Eventually, I reached Miri safe and sound just nearby midnight. And I knocked out straight after I arrived at home.

The next day, I woke up sort of early and helped my mum a bit with some house chores. After shower, I went to my grandparents' house and meet up with my Auntie Cilla. Yeah, the whole family was happy to see me as I didn't join them for Raya since 2007. I went with Auntie Cilla for her daily chores - going to banks, picked up her kids from school, last minute shopping and etc.  In the evening, we (me, my mum and sis) got ready to pick up my brother who flew from Sabah. We went out straight for break of fast buffet in Imperial Hotel - but the food wasn't nice at all. It wasn't the price worth paying for, seriously. And oh, we all went with my mum's boyfriend. Yes, my mum has a boyfriend of 8 years relationship - but I only met him twice during the 8 years. He's closer to my younger sister than me and my bro - probably because we were, and we are rebellious. And short-tempered and sarcastic too. In short, I knocked out early than usual that night, again.

17th Sept - Me and my bro officially became housemaids. We cleaned half the house  which includes the main living room and the leisure room. It sounded easy, right? But oh dear, we were really tired till we didn't wake up for break of fast - from an evening nap it became a long sleep till the next day.


18th Sept - Last minute Raya shopping. My younger siblings did their shopping lavishly as each of them was given about rm400 each to spend for raya. As for me, I have to refrain myself as I have things to pay for - I didn't want to be out of budget towards end of the month. But I did buy something for myself - a black leather handbag. It was equally worth the price to pay for. Nothing much, not a very expensive Guess or Gucci bag - just a Marie Claire. But I love it, and I'm happy I bought it.

19th Sept - Last minute shopping in the morning. Oh, and also went to Miri Plaza to look for Hubby's gift. I decided to spend a bit of cash for Hubby as I never bought anything for him - he never did let me buy anything for him. And that makes me feel bad all the time. Since I'm without him in Miri, I can buy what he needed the most. No Hubby, I won't tell what I bought for you in this blog - don't think I'm that careless, ok. *LOL* Let the suspense gets to your nerves. Had a silly argument with my mum at the complexe about when Raya is going to be. I picked 20th and she chose 21st. That night, she lost. Luckily we were done with the whole house-cleaning by evening - obviously without my mum's help. Come on, she's the Madame and we're the maids, if you get what I mean. My mum is never pumped when it comes to doing house-chores. She needs a maid.


20th Sept - First day of Raya. Lots of family pictures taken. And oh, guess what? I received "Duit Raya"!! Hahaha. I didn't expect that since the elders were all agreed to exclude me this year since I am a working adult now. But I did get some though. *LOL* Not much - just a little more than RM200. And I spent half of it in the evening for a pair of jeans and some other stuffs. One word - happy. First day of Raya was spent visiting my mum's friends. All of the houses we visited were of her friends. Not a fun thing to do. But my ex-schoolmates did come to my house late in the evening. Thanks for coming, guys. And girls. It was a pleasure to meet up after a few years.


21st Sept - My mum's birthday. And 2nd day of Raya. Went out with my other half, Amoi, to visit some of our friends. Made up a list of 10 names to visit - but only manage to visit not more than 3 of them. Will continue today, I guessed. And oh, a lot of pictures taken. Not going to upload them here. Again, I slept early last night.


I'm unsure what to do today. I know I need to give back the handphone charger to Auntie Cilla. I want to go out visiting again, but so far no plans were told to me. Plus, it's still early for visiting - it's only 9.50 am now. I bet my friends are still snoring in beds, and I haven't even brush my teeth, left alone taking shower. 


I can say, so far this year's Raya is one of the best I've had after a long few years. Right, I need to puff some smoke now, else I'll be in bed back.


p/s: Pictures will be uploaded by end of this week into my Facebook. Y'all can grab the pictures from my album, right?

First week without Hubby

It's been a week now since Hubby left for his training abroad.

The TMnet guys will only fix the line and the net to the apartment next coming weeks, I think.

For the first few days, we thought it was okay to send messages through SMS to each other. Until last night, it somehow hit Hubby's mind – how much does one SMS cost each of us?

For me, it only costs me about 5-7 cents per SMS sent to him.

But for him, his rate is way more expensive depending on where he is about. While in France, it will cost him RM1 per SMS, and today he's going to be in Canada and it will cost him RM2 per SMS.

So we decided not to message each other – worried in case he exceeds his company's mobile bill. I think it exceeded already.

I think he's enjoying himself pretty much in those 2 countries. I bet he took a lot of pictures too and for now I know, he is bringing 2 bottles of wine as a gift from France.

As for me, I can say I'm totally bored since Hubby left. I go to work as usual and when I got back home, I fix myself dinner, watch some TV and go to bed earlier than before – just to kill time, you know.

And this is my first weekend without Hubby. It's only Saturday but I almost committed suicide out of boredom. Not that I'm serious, hell no! I'm just exaggerating, that's all but yes – I am bored to death. I have so much of time of doing nothing till I actually cleaned this apartment spick and span. I even cleaned my room even though I have cleaned it a few days ago. I washed the toilet. I washed my curtains. I did my laundry. Oh, this is the lamest part – I had so much of time till I learnt how to apply eyeliner on my upper eyelids, finally! And I looked better when I have eyeliner applied on both upper and lower lids instead of only lower lids. And when I put on my new grey coloured lenses, I looked different. I looked like a lady. That's a surprise to give to Hubby when he picks me up from KLIA this coming 29^th of September.

And out of boredom, I was blessed tonight. I didn't believe I just cracked a password of someone's wifi – totally out of the blue and out of my blurriness. I think, maybe God pitied me for not being able to do anything the whole day so he just gave me a password. For once after a long time, I thanked Him.

I'm looking forward for 29^th September to see my Hubby. And both of us are absolutely looking forward for 2^nd of October, Friday. We're going out for a real date just to release the one-month missing each other syndrome.

And somehow, now I know how lonely my mom feels all these years without having anyone by her side, especially after her children left to pursue their dreams. I need to get my mom married to someone before all of us are not there for her.

And this is how my brother feels too – lonely without having any friends or a girlfriend by his side – his friends are either busy with games or their own girlfriends.

I miss Hubby L

Deep thoughts

Sometimes, I envy those who are born into more-than-medium families - in short; rich kids. Seriously, I really envy those lucky kids. I'm not complaining about me being born into a normal yet simple family but hey, I'm still a human being. So I get the right to be jealous, don't I?

Let me just give you an example of these luck-kids. Oh, I just created the word from a combination of "lucky" and "kids" hence, luck-kids. Anyway, back to the main road – my cousin is one of these luck-kids. Ever since she was born, she was gifted with everything a girl could possibly imagine. Toys, parties, vacations to wherever and so on. When she was a teenager, she was blessed with being popular, being liked and loved, mingled around with popular kids, study overboard (since the family had to transfer to Holland due to the father's obligation to work), vacation around Europe, designer bags, designer clothes, designer watches, designer-whatever-you-can-think-of. And teenagers also need parties, and she got loads of them. She went to parties and held up parties. After a few years overseas, the family came back to their old house – and renovated it to a bigger one full of expensive items and furniture. The least expensive would be from Ikea, I would say. She got her driving license and right away she got a car from the father. Her purse was never empty. Her popularity is still there, and I know most of the youths in Miri at that time (or even now) know her. At least, they know her name.

I remember of her showing to me her personal Swatch watches collection. Name any of the designs or models – she would have it. And all of them are originals, not Chinatown made. The family would go to K.L during weekends just for shopping spree. You can say that KL is like their second home. She got heaps of handbags, shoes, heels, clothes – she can just open another small factory outlet store for those. Basically, she lives like a real princess.

She got married a few years back. Even her wedding was sponsored by the parents. A lush and beautiful wedding and all were invited. I wasn't there as I was still in a semester, counting the days for final exams. But from the DVD my grandma showed me, the wedding ceremony was extravagant. Everything was on the parents.

Then after a few months, she gave birth to a baby girl. Even that, the parents paid for her medical fees and such. Last I heard, she is still living under-one-roof with the parents in the big bungalow with all her family expenses are on the parents. Even the baby's milk, diapers, and so forth.

Now, if that kind of life is to be compared to mine – mine is shitty. And everyone keeps on telling me things which for now I think are shitty too. Yes, yes I know people will tell me that I'm blessed to be brighter than the others in the family; or that I am lucky to be going through life the hard way as so that I get to learn all the crooks in living life. Wait a minute, what is so lucky to be going through life the hard way? Ok, I admit I am lucky for once, I have loved ones around me – my mom, my siblings, my family, Hubby and some good-for-keep friends too. You know who you are.

But then, being in my shoes are not exactly wonderful. Not like sitting on a merry-go-round and just enjoy yourself without having to think or worry about anything. People would usually think of silly things like where shall I eat today, what I shall eat today, what to spend today, where to shop today, where and who to hang out with today...blah-blah-blah.

And this is what I have in my mind every single day:

#1. Money: Would I have enough money till the end of the month? How can save more? Fuck, I had to spend money on unnecessary things that came up along the way towards the end of the month; hence I don't have savings yet. How to pay for this? How to compensate for that? How to cut down on budget? Where to eat to save? What to eat to save? Can I just not eat anything except for some Jacob's crackers and plain water?

#2. Work: I think I have blurted out a lot about this one. So, I'm going to the next instead.

#3. Time: To tell you the truth, 24-hours is not enough for me. Morning till evening, I am at work. To go back from work, it takes about 2 hours to be stuck in the traffic. Half an hour allocated for meals. Reach home; I have to feed the kittens, clean up the house if the kittens had messed it up, do the laundry, and other chores. I end up going to bed feeling tired all over – mentally and physically.

#4. Money issue, again.

Would you believe it if I tell you that I don't hang out with friends? You know, like a weekend's night gathering – I don't do that stuff. That's because I'm trying to catch up on relaxing myself all the time. Even nowadays, I have noticed that I don't pay enough attention to Hubby as before – which made me realize that this would lead to bad circumstances. I am more to the listening part rather than the chit-chatting part, unlike before. But at times, I let my mind wander off thinking about problems when I'm supposed to listen to Hubby. And I feel terrible for being such an anti-social bitch to my Hubby too. I have to change that part, I guess.

Anyway, I need to go down to the lab. Will rant more later on.

Day-dreaming

I found it very convenient to use Microsoft Word to publish my blog posts, especially when the Internet speed is freaking slow like a platypus. I don't exactly know slow a platypus can be when it is on land – it's just out from my own imagination. I'm still uploading pictures of our vacation into my Facebook photo album but the speed of Internet is not helping me to upload my pictures easily. Plus, I am downloading some anime while I'm uploading the pictures so I'm guessing it's because of the traffic too.

I also realized that I'm beginning to be easily irritated and angered these days. I have never been in that situation before – a short-tempered person. Before, I rarely go against a person who irritates me or drives me to my nerves but I find it pretty easy for me to do so. And if the person mess up with me when the time is wrong, I can be very vulgar with words which is not very good.

Hence, I'm relieved that Ramadhan is going on now. It means I can learn how to control my anger and temper by reminding myself bout the fasting month and the entire do's and don'ts while fasting. But for these first few days, it didn't work that much – maybe because it's still too early to see the improvement.

I miss the time when we were in Fraser's. If only we could leave the phones back in K.L, it would be very nice to be undisturbed – not to have to worry about anything especially regarding work. I think the next time we're off to a vacation, I would leave my phone at home in K.L instead of bringing it with me. Before I go for the vacation, I would notify my family members of my whereabouts. I know that mobile phones are basically a necessity nowadays but I don't want to be disturbed when I'm on holiday. It's really irritating; another reason why I always put my phone on silent mode whenever I go out to enjoy myself.

When we were in Fraser's, we made plans for our future. We figured out that we want a house in Fraser's and settle down on top of the hill – surrounded by friendly people and also greens. We figured out that we would work hard through the years to save enough money to buy a house on the hill. We also planned that we would save enough money for us not only to buy a house in Fraser's but also to spend till the old age. Or maybe, we could do some part-time jobs while we are there. Basically, we plan and want to settle down in Fraser's after retirement. We would have a couple of the town folks to become our housemaid and a general worker. They will only have to work from morning till evening, and they can return home before the sun sets. The man would be helping us to get some things and groceries from Raub while his wife would become our housemaid and cook. Why we need to go to Raub to shop? It's because there is no market or supermarket on top of the hill – only 2 small grocery shops. So in order to buy fish, poultry, eggs and such – we need to drive down the hill to Raub which is about 34km from Fraser's. Or if you opt for a nearer town, Kuala Kubu Bharu is 30km away from Fraser's.

If only there are job opportunities on that beautiful hill – I wouldn't think twice of applying. No worries for the low wages given because accommodation is given to those who work there.

Okay, I'm day-dreaming too far already. I better get my feet back on the ground and with all the worries back in my head.

Later~

Just for the sake of updating

Okay. Since Elly had the idea of me quitting the cyber-world just because I haven't update my blog for some time (yes Elly, I knew the reason :p) – so and so here I go. It's the month of Ramadhan now and this year, I'm keeping hope that I can finish off with a full, clean 30-days of fasting. It's the fourth day today, and since the first day I've felt very sleepy. I tried to be active as usual but the thing is – I was sort of passive before. I was only active when I was still a student. Those were easier times because I didn't have many responsibilities back then, unlike now.

I just deleted a whole paragraph – I was very sleepy actually and I'm trying my best to keep my eyes wide open for blogging. Can I just go on with some simple and more direct updates? I really don't have the urge to type now since my brain is pretty numb at the moment and my eyes are really heavy. Sitting in an air-cond room with complete silence doesn't help me much to keep my eyes open. So, here goes:

#1. Hubby bought for me 2 pairs of disposable contact lenses for the upcoming Hari Raya. Nice colour though I haven't try it out yet – and got it with a good bargain. Thanks, Hubby.

#2. It was our annual anniversary last 13^th August. Since we were tied with the 24-hours operation for the whole week, we didn't celebrate much. Hubby surprised me by bringing out to a fancy dinner at Spaghetti Grill in Midvalley. It was a quick celebration though, less than an hour. But I was happy. Plus, why bother bout the annual celebration when we can always make every single day an anniversary or a Valentine's Day, no?

#3. Working for about 20-hours per day for 5 days straight is tiring. But I loved the night shift – unlimited privacy and higher internet speed.

#4. We took leave after the torturous week was over. Though we were not feeling well after working so hard, we still want to enjoy and make the best out of our holidays – which made us going to Kuala Selangor and Fraser's Hill.

#5. We went to Kuala Selangor with George and his wife, Rani, Chris along with Momoko. The place was full of different species of monkeys and I really enjoyed the one-day trip. We had seafood dinner at a riverside restaurant and boy, the food was superb. After dinner, we went to the Firefly Park but I was sort of disappointed because it was not as how as the brochures described it. And the tickets are freaking expensive just for a tour. Pictures are in my Facebook!

#6. We spent a few nights playing cards until the wee hours. Eating snacks and just dawdles around.

#7. Then, we went to Fraser's Hill. On the way up, we dropped by Ulu Yam Buddhist Temple. Chris has a friend there who is a young monk. The place was nice – full of sculptures surrounded with lush greens and quiet. It gave us the sense of peace.

#8. We stopped by Kuala Kubu Bharu for a quick lunch and bought some things to cook while we are in Fraser's.

#9. Fraser's is full of fun! It's one of the best places to unwind your mind off work. We went boating in Allan's Water, a visit to Jeriau Waterfalls, had scones and tea in an English style at the Olde Smokehouse. Nice scones, one point for the smokehouse. The strawberry jam and the fresh sour cream were very nice too. We had a dinner of steamboat at Shahzan's Inn and we spent the rest of the nights there playing cards and enjoying ourselves with endless conversation. Pictures are up in Facebook.

Then we had to come back to the city – which is very depressing. The only thing I could do now is to look forward for another trip as such.

Okay, there – I updated my blog already.

I’m back (again!)

Yes, that's right. I'm back again after quite a silence, but like usual – I won't be long. Just felt like writing out something today, that's all.

I was in Universiti Malaya (UM) since last week. Me and Hubby was assigned and based to be there for some time while giving training to our new reactor colleague, Divya. And of course, to solve some shitty problems left for us to clean up there. That's the usual style The Boss always has in hand for both us – we're "shit-scooper". People (including herself, also) create problems, and we're the ones who are always cornered to solve them - another reason why I often lose my cool nowadays. To be honest, we prefer to be in UM rather than at Damansara office. I guessed it's plainly because we feel peaceful working by ourselves, solving problems without interference from irrelevant parties, not being pushed around like slaves. And of course - freedom. The work in UM is actually more tiring than in the office but I guessed when you're heart is in peace with your work – nothing would make you feel down.

But today, The Boss left us a message asking us to come back to the office because Divya is on medical leave. Uh oh. New gossip in office – my so-called Head of Department (yes, the bossy one) had put down her resignation letter. I was only briefed with the headlines. More details will come up later.

Ok, back to the work story. So, we knew Divya would take a medical leave today as she was already unfit yesterday. She suddenly turned pale and was really looking not very good. We advised her to take a medical attention and take the half day off work as we were worried should there be anything worse happens. She informed her HR Manager, and off she went. In the evening, The Boss came into the reactor lab and noticed that Divya wasn't around, so she asked. We told her what happened and that Divya was given permission by the HR Manager to take the half day off. The Boss, being the ^*&^*^ she already is, tried to tell us that Divya hasn't done her job properly. For example, we came to UM just to give her training, and she has to get the reactors operating in good condition for the training. The thing is, the girl just started working like 3 weeks ago, and she doesn't have much idea how things are being done in that place – what to buy, what are the problems, how to solve them and the list goes on. We didn't even blame her for any of these things as we are fully understand that she's still in learning mode. It's normal, no? So The Boss keeps on telling us that the poor girl didn't do her work and continues on - telling us that Divya took a medical leave because she's simply de-motivated and not interested to work. We put on a deaf ear, but we just can't believe that The Boss would go to the extent of trying to turn a healthy relationship between colleagues into an unnecessary fight. Like what the locals put this situation as in "suka melaga-lagakan orang". I bet she did the same thing when we first started – no wonder the seniors hated us. And mind you, it wasn't the first time.

Anyway, enough of work gossips. Let's focus to what has been happening in my life lately. Last Friday, our ex-reactor colleague (Fiza), invited us for dinner – on her. She treated us dinner at Spaghetti Grill in MidValley. If I was not mistaken, Spaghetti Grill is quite a new place – just opened some time earlier this year. The food was fabulous and worth the price paid. The drinks were great especially the juices. I took lemonade and they serve juices and soft drinks in beer mug size. And both are bottomless – free-flow baby! These were our dinner:

Appetizer: Chicken stuffed mushrooms with cheese. Cheese was very nice and the mushrooms were really big!

Fiza and Hubby took some chocolate whipped cream drink (forgot the name of the drink) and a Chicken Spaghetti served with a big piece of chicken chop topped with mozzarella cheese, spaghetti of course and some broccoli and snow peas. Hubby has a big appetite but yet, he couldn't finish his meal. So you could imagine how much the portion was.

I, being an avid lover of al-Freddo pasta (or some called it Carbonara), took the pasta as my dinner. It was served with slices of roasted boneless chicken and thick gravy. So far, that's the best pasta I've ever tasted in KL at a very fair price. Bottomless beer-mug sized lemonade was my wash down.

Towards the end of the dinner, all of us practically forced ourselves to finish up our meals. And we could walk around much after that. We basically turned into full-tummy pythons.

On Sunday evening, Hubby and I went to my uncle's place in Taman Setiawangsa to have dinner with my grandparents. We were very nervous before the evening as this was the first time Hubby meets my grandparents, who are like the CEOs of the big family, and it's also my first time to bring my other half to meet my grandparents. Actually, they requested for Hubby to meet them. We were supposed to bring them out for dinner at an Indian cuisine shop, but plan was changed. Instead, we had to have dinner at my uncle's apartment – which made us more nervous. My uncle is a very sarcastic and sort of cocky person, forever with a serious face on. A person you wouldn't want to bump into.

Everything went well that evening – better than what we expected. My grandfather talked with Hubby and keeps on asking about me from Hubby. He asked more about me that asking on Hubby about himself. That's what Hubby told me after we took off. In a nutshell, everything breezed just nice. No arguments, no sarcasm, no heart-wrenching words exchanged. Nothing bad happened. Thank God! *phew*

Oh, I'm going to have to stop now. Someone is updating me with some gossips that happened in the office while we were away in UM. Don't worry – I will be back again. Warm regards from me J

 

 

Back from MIA

I really think I need a vacation.

I've been running around work and only moments ago, I realized I haven't live up my life to at least above zero these few weeks. Since most of my friends are stepping into working life, I guess they have known about the torment by now.

And I've realized that I have abandoned my blog for quite some time. A few weeks, maybe. Sorry for that – I'm just tied up with a lot of things lately. Just bear with me while I slowly rant whatever is running through my mind as I let my fingers dance on the keyboard.

There have been a lot of dramas going on in my workplace nowadays. Technicians are planning to sue The Boss according to Malaysia Labour Act 1955. Their reasons are the same reasons why me and Hubby put up our resignation letter – unpaid debts which includes overtime and allowances. The last thing I heard, The Boss freaked out and had to give them cheques. I guessed we could do the same thing too before we leave the place. Rm800++ each – tell me if it's not worth the chaos.

Number of people that are going to leave the place has increased too. At one point, I was thinking to myself – was it of our influences since we're the first ones to issue our resignation letter? Maybe or maybe not.

Then there was a cat-fight yesterday when I wasn't around. Hubby and I had to go to UM to train the new research assistant and the Masters student on how to operate reactors. It supposed to be more than a week training, but we were only asked to spend our time there maximum two days. And yes, nothing much can be taught in two days. Back to the cat-fight; it involves the chemists from different departments. It started off with one very silly thing – Time Sheet. If you happen not to know what is a timesheet, it's like a data-sheet where all the workers have to record their daily activities and submit it to their respective Head of Department, which I personally think is crappy. This is worse than being in a military, man.

Then there were some people who were spying and taking pictures of the premise last 2 weeks during a power blackout. I wasn't surprised if I get to know there are some people who are against The Boss, I mean who wouldn't?

Hubby and I are job-hunting now. And we're really hoping to get a job before we leave this place of hell. I am not worried much about my part of getting a job cause worse comes to worst, I could always opt for other positions like secretarial, administration or even tutoring as I had quite some experiences in these scopes. But Hubby – he's worried of his luck. He's shooting every position as a Safety Officer as much as he can, and now he's opting for an Electrical position too. So, if any of you happen to know or have any openings in companies (big or small, we don't mind) as a Safety Officer or and Electrical (Power) technician, please let me know.

Grandparents are flying to KL next coming Saturday. They're going to spend a week holiday here. I hope I can make some time to meet them as much as I can and wish for. And oh, they want to meet Hubby too. Not to interview him or whatsoever, but just for the sake of meeting their future grandson-in-law. Hope everything's going to be fine.

I'm flying to Miri for Hari Raya this coming September. I'll be going away for two weeks from 15^th Sept until 29^th Sept. Hubby is looking forward for me to bring back some of my mum's Kuih Lapis Sarawak. Which reminds me that I haven't plan for Raya shopping yet.

I guess that's all I can type now. It's nearly 4pm now and I'm starting to look forward to go home. *yawn*

Updates Serba Tak Tentu

** Since I am in a rush to juggle things and tasks with only two hands and one brain, I apologize if my English in this post is broken. I can't help it – my fingers are sprinting on the board while my head is somewhere else.

 

Ok. Short updates je. Let's see:

1. I've submitted my (and Hubby's) resignation letter yesterday. And now The Boss is trying her best to persuade us to stay. Layan kteorg baik giler! Serious, tak tipu.
   
2. Bukti The Boss layan kteorg ngan baik? You see, Hubby sprained his ankle on Sunday night. He had to take a medical leave on Monday. When he came back to work yesterday, no one was bothered by his pain and struggle all day long. Suddenly hari ni, The Boss suruh her daughter ambik kan bandage and ointment – nak treat Hubby's sprained ankle. Serious, x tipu. *laughing very hard and loud*
   
3. Hari ni, aku berjaye meluahkan perasaan ke-tak-puas-hati-an aku kat The Boss. Satu per satu name aku sebut. Satu per satu aku complaint. Haa, jangan ingat aku diam-diam je. Dah alang-alang nak resign, bukak je la mulut, kan kan kan?
   
4. Oh, Hubby dapat interview from a big steel company kat Seksyen 51, PJ – as a safety officer.
   
5. Sejak bile Hubby jadi Safety Officer? Oh, sejak dier berjaya menamatkan course as a safety officer kat NIOSH.
   
6. My mum dah dapat keje ngan one French company in oil and gas field – as a Safety Officer gak. Yeap, my life is filled up with Safety Officers now. Silap-silap my Granpa pon ambik jugak nanti, kan? Maner la tau.
   
7. Duit gaji x masuk lagi. Poket dah berlubang. Purse dah berdebu. Minyak kete dah nak kontang. Now, perut dah mule berbunyik sebab makan pisang goring je for lunch tadi. Malam nanti, terpakse makan Maggi lak. My babies bertuah la – diorg bleh lagi makan Whiskas food. Manusia xleh makan Whiskas ke?
   
8. Dah lupe nak update ape. If I happen to remember some of them, I'll be sure to scribble them in my little handbook. I forget things a lot and more often nowadays. Dah tue, nak buat camner.
   
9. Ha! Teringat now. My Mum has a Facebook account – siap ade gambar dier posing sexy and ayu gitu~ *LOL*
   

Bye!

Airlines and B*tches who drive me to my nerves

Looks like I'm not going to make it also this year.

I was stranded in KL last year when everyone else is enjoying with their family during Eid Mubarak.

My mum called me this morning to tell me that my grandparents are starting to ask when I'm coming back for Eid Mubarak. Yes, I'm one of their favourite grandchildren. Oh wait; actually I'm their most favourite grandchildren among all. So, obviously they are looking forward for my return to home for the celebration.

Last week, Matt told me that he got himself a flight ticket from KL to Labuan at the cheapest rate. I'm unsure how much was it but it's less than rm150. He's very lucky indeed because when I checked online for the same cheap rate from KL to Miri this afternoon, I was devastated to know there aren't any left. The only tickets left are priced at almost rm200 – not included taxes and other things. And those are only one-way tickets. I checked for a return ticket and the price shown to me really stabbed me through my heart – almost rm600. Not inclusive of baggage/luggage fee.

So, I widened my options to Malaysia Airlines. And the price of a return ticket from KL to Miri cost me about the same but inclusive of luggage fees and food on board! I like their food actually, especially when they give Beryl's dark chocolate or pudding for deserts. And I can also ask for orange juice as many times I want. And I know I can rely on them if I can't reach my bag up the cabinet, or if I need a blanket, or if I fall ill while on plane. Malaysia Hospitality, they really work up to it.

I've always prefer to travel with MAS rather than Air Asia. Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to show that my pockets are always full to take MAS flights rather than an economical flight. It's just that I feel satisfied whenever I take MAS flights compared to Air Asia. Well, it's a fair deal also – you get what you pay. MAS cost you more for the better service while Air Asia is the opposite.

Anyway, back to my rants. I feel kind of f*cked up right now after getting to know that the chances for me to go back for Eid Mubarak is very slim. It seems like it can't be helped – the ticket costs me a lot of money and I'm in the middle of financial crisis right now. I think I'll consider a part-time job. Like, be a beggar and roam around Bangsar – I've heard a lot of stories that these beggars can earn at least rm100 per night. So imagine how much they will earn if they do it every night for 30 days. Good money, huh?

Ok. I just got back from what almost turn into a fight. I was asked to do someone else's work. And I really can't stand it. When it comes to me, no one is ever bothered to help me out. But when it comes to them, every work is pushed to me. Bloody bitches! You all are paid high salary to do work, sluts! Fucking bitches always pushing their work to people who are already burdened with other jobs to do, and force to do it as fast as we can.

That's it. I'm going to draft my resignation letter, and submit it end of this month. And I'll never ever fucking share any of the knowledge, that I self-learned, to these brats. Screw them.

Ok. I need to do some work now. And I need to look for a new job. I'm really desperate to get out from this place till I even consider working as a clerk or an assistant. No joke, the pay is quite attractive too. If any of you have any job for me, even as a technician – please let me know yeah? Thanks!

A bit of update..and a heart-pouring session.

Oh dear, it's been a very long time since I last update my blog, did I? Last I recall, it was like 2 weeks ago, or so.

Pardon me for the disappearance – I was so busy with work lately. Trying to juggle my working and personal life together in two bare hands. Plus, recently I was "outcast" by The Boss into the laboratory downstairs. So yeah, from the cosy and comfortable office cubicle, I nowadays spend my working hours in the laboratory. I guessed I can claim myself to be sort of well-rounded. I can be an engineer, an analyst, a chemist, a lab technician, Admin and Procurement staff and what-so-ever. Only two posts I haven't been "awarded" yet – The Boss post and also a cleaner.

So, what's new around me? I can say this month is a month full of jinx and rejection for me. Did I mention that I was planning to buy myself a new camera? I think I did mention it before but heck, if I never mentioned it – yes, I planned to buy a camera this month upon receiving my salary.

However, thanks to the stingy-blood-sucking Boss, I didn't manage to get myself a camera. You see, I was supposed to get almost rm500 of overtime for the month. And yes, I worked myself out (along with Hubby too) during that particular month cause we were given a project to monitor on. We worked for 3 days in a row, only to be able to catch some 3 hours of sleep for those 3 days. We had to monitor the project which ran 24 hours for each point of testing – and we had 4 points. So just imagine this situation:

1. We were in Semenyih – a rural area where there are still dense jungle all around.
   
2. 3 out of 4 points had to be done nearby the jungle.
   
3. And it had to be monitored 24 hours. Day and night.
   

I think that should be enough to imagine how f*cked up our situation at that time. And it's in the company policy that we are supposed to be given site allowance, night shift allowance and food allowance. Let's not talk bout the former two – we didn't even get food allowance. So we asked The Boss bout it, and her husband assured us that we will get paid by overtime. So we agreed and we had to wait for 3 months to follow-up on the overtime.

And just as we thought we could finally spend a little bit of money for ourselves, we were slapped in the face by this statement from The Boss :

"Oh, the hours that you have been working including during the project was a commitment for the company.."

Make the story short – we didn't get paid even a single cent.; just the monthly basic salary and nothing more.

I'm not the kind of person to keep revenge or get angry easily. Ask Hubby, and he'll laugh his head off if people ever told him that I could get angry – cause it's almost impossible. That's how patience and ignorant I could be to myself. But what The Boss did to us – is unforgivable. I feel sorry for her cause she underestimates me a lot. I may be small in size, but when I'm really pissed – nothing is impossible. And yes, I am keeping revenge and hatred on her. God bless her then when I get my chance.

Ok, I don't want to spoil my day so I'm just going to put it a full-stop here. Will write again, soon.

p/s : Till now, I am damn pissed with her. I refused to talk to her, to greet her, to join in a meeting with her – not even see her face. The sight of her just disgusts me. This is the truth, and yes truth do hurt some people huh?

Life and Hubby

I've always believe Life is God and God is Life.

Life surrounds every one of us, and no one can run away from it - even Death. Came to think of it, without Life, there wouldn't be Death would it?

And I've always believe Life is like a never-ending journey. We will always go in circles no matter which paths we chose. We always end up either up, or down.

And that would eventually relate to Karma, also. A body wouldn't stay rigid at one place – it's always moving. In life, it's either we're up or down. When we're up, expect to be down later on and vice versa. No one can stay put at one place – we can't expect ourselves to be successful or happy all the time. Likewise, we can't expect ourselves to be whelmed in sadness or problems all the time.

Everything in life is in balance.

Where there is white, there is black. Water and Fire. Wood and Metal.

Female and Male. Love and Hatred.

Yin and Yang. Happy and Sad. Worries or relief.

Left and right. Up or Down.

Every dog has its own day.

So Hubby, just chill. Don't worry so much. Life has better surprises to offer us if we take Life itself into our arms and caress it with goodness.

why am I grinning from ear to ear depsite The Boss is around?

Hey. I want to share with you a very thrilling news. Well, maybe it's thrilling for me and for some others out there, but whatever it is.. I know I'm one of the luckiest to be able to grab this opportunity.

And I still can't get over it since Friday.

I GOT THE TICKETS FOR MANCHESTER UNITED ASIA TOUR 2009!

Oh..so you guys would be wondering "what's the big deal? anyone can get the tickets."

Hahaha. Not anyone can get the TRAINING PASS to their training schedule, right?

so yeah, I got myself a ticket to their match against Malaysia's team - and also a pass to watch them perform their training, maybe a chance to get their signatures too!

I'm so going to bring a camera, and take a lot of pictures.

Maybe some signature-tattoos on my body parts too.; if i run out of papers for them to sign. *giggles*

The match would be on 18th of July 2009 at Bukit Jalil Stadium - kick off at 5.30pm and yes, the tickets are on sale now but these tickets are limited for the early birds. Means, first come first serve - and if you purchase these pre-sale tickets, you'll get a free pass to watch them training. Like the ones I got for me and Hubby.

For public sale, the tickets will be on the counters starting from 1st of June till I don't know when.

Calling all Man.Utd's fans in Malaysia! Let's all be among the Red Devils and fill the stadium with red!

And expect the fans to cheer more for Man.Utd rather than our own team. Well, couldn't do much bout that - people always go for the best among the best, right?

Later~

*whistling Glory Glory Man Utd*

All work and No Play Make Moy a Dull Girl :p

It’s been quite a while since I last updated my blog. Pity this little corner, all dusty and dull. Guess I’ll have to spring-clean a bit with some stories, huh?

Right, let’s see what I have to write since I have extra time for myself now. No, I’m not procrastinating my work. I did my work efficiently enough for me to get them done before lunch hour. And I’ve been very busy these few days (or weeks) till I have no time at all to blog. I miss my ranting corner.

I feel kind of weird that these few days I almost let myself out of rage. I’m usually the kind of person that keeps my anger away and cool myself down for better and more rational reasons – like avoiding fights, avoiding being immature and found myself stupid entertaining the immature. Yes, I almost get my rage and anger slip out of me these few days. Like today, we encountered a few idiotic road morons who clearly don’t deserve to have a driving license, or at least a car. If only I could ask Hubby to stop the car while in the traffic jam, I can just jump out of the front seat and give these idiots some hard bloody whacks. Reason? For scaring me with their so-called F1 driving skills.

And I have noticed a few times that I easily get angry when I’m threatened or scared. Like a Gremlin, you know. When they’re threatened or scared, they’ll turn into those little monsters which are no longer cute to see, cute to hold. I forgot how I used to bash people up when I was younger. Cheh, I sounded like I’m already middle age or older. But yes, I did bash people up when I was a teenager. I had my own gang which I never reveal till now, and which no one knows even Hubby. All of those happened when I couldn’t control my anger, and that was back then. Not now.

Now, I’m only furious and can run amok if I’m feeling threatened. Some sort like Hulk, but I can’t imagine myself turning into Hulk *laughing hysterically*. Not right at all. I’ll just stick to Gremlins.

*****

Remember when I promised to post up Max and Qarnillea’s pictures in one of my post? I think I’ve been holding back that promise too long. So, wallah! Friends and foes, meet my babies – Master and Mistress of the House (yes, they gained that title because they never fail to turn the apartment upside down in a mess). Oh, pardon me for the blur pictures. The babies are excited to see the camera and they kept on chasing after me for the camera.

Weekends

The wireless connection in the office is getting slower each passing day. Lucky for me that I've learnt how to post my blog posts easily without having to refresh the page a few times and have the possibility of losing my post before I can even post it up – using Microsoft Word 2007. I'm feeling very sleepy too, now that I decided to share with you my trip to Ipoh last weekend.

 

We drove off from my apartment at about 5.45 and went to Seputeh first to fetch Chris. The main person who has more importance of going to Ipoh is actually Chris, not us. We're just tagging along as we ourselves were keen for Ipoh. Love the town for its laid-back and more relaxing atmosphere compared to what we're going through in KL. So yeah, we had breakfast before we shot off to Ipoh. About 7-ish, we were already on our way to the place.

 

We reached Ipoh in less than 1 hour and half – thanks to Hubby's skills of driving the car. We sent Chris off to his class in Kampung Tambung Baru, and headed off to meet one of our good friends – Hani. We made our way from Tambun to UTP in Tronoh and in less than 20 mins, we reached the university. Picked her up at the guard post, and headed back to Ipoh to have lunch. We had lunch in Kalai's Curry House and went to Kinta City to waste our time. Hubby shopped for Times magazine, while I just looking around. We got bored in Kinta City, so we headed to Ipoh Parade afterwards. Bought a nice leather belt for myself, and then drove back to Tambun to fetch Chris. We had tea before retiring to the hotel.

We had a very nice dinner at Moven's Peak in Greentown. I almost got lost on the way there because it's been like 2 years since I left Ipoh. We hang out in Moven's Peak till almost midnight, and then sent Chris off to bed. We continued our journey to Tronoh back with Hani – meeting another 3 good friends of Hubby. Had a really good time catching up with each other and cracking jokes till we didn't realize it was already 4 am. Hani went back with other friends while I and Hubby drove back to Ipoh. It was one of the best hang-outs with friends that we had since the last time – God knows when.

We slept and had to wake up about 8.30am to send Chris to his class, then came back to catch up on our sleep – only to wake up just after 12noon. We checked out of the hotel, and had lunch in Kalai's. We went to Ipoh Parade (again!) and did some shopping. Hubby grabbed for himself a nice and simple white sweater. He looked tough and slim when he tried on the sweater. We found a crystal shop in the mall, and checked the shop out. Hubby bought for himself a quartz bracelet with cravings of Kwan Yin prayers on each of the quartz balls. The bracelet is supposed to mend bad lucks and bring in good luck for the wearer – good luck in all prospects whether it's health or wealth. The bracelet is also to remind Hubby to stay positive and patient all the time. As for me, he bought me a bracelet too – Tiger Eye stone. I'm quite unsure of what's the purpose of it but my mom and grandmother had always urged me to buy Tiger Eye for myself. I think I should do my homework of reading about Tiger Eye.

We went back to KL at about 6pm after fetching Chris from his class and reach KL in 2 hours. There were a lot of cars on the road, so the journey back to the city was longer than the day before. We felt quite reluctant to leave Ipoh to the city – maybe because of Ipoh's lifestyle.

Anyway, I'm off downloading some stuff now. And I'm feeling very sleepy already. I hope The Boss doesn't walk in later so that at least, I could have a wink or two of nap.

 

Later.

Let’s Be Positive!

In nature, there's always an opposite of everything. Black and white. Male and female. Yin and yang. And I personally believe that we are surrounded by different sources of energy, which are natural actually, and come at different levels. And it's in nature also that most beings prefer the positive rather than the negative energy.

That includes me. I love being positive. Being in an area surrounded by positive energy. I'm not trying to be a cock here by proving that I'm such an optimistic person. No, I have no intention of boasting about that at all. It's just I'm so bothered now that I have negative energy around me. I've heard of "Opposite Attracts" but in my case now, I don't want to be attracted to negativity.

See, I'm the kind of person that prefers to think positively rather than negatively. Unless if I'm very sure that a certain matter is not going to be the way I hope and want it, then I'll give out negative response. But we don't call that as negative when you've already know what's the outcome without even having to go through it. It's called logical. I'm not much of a positive person – no, really I'm not. But I like to nurture myself to think and take things positively wherever or whenever is possible. I'm optimistic – being positive and negative at the right rational and logical. Neither all the time positive nor all the time negative. The only problem I have that I haven't been able to solve is my self-esteem and confidence, but by being positive – I'm sure one fine day, I'll get over it.

And I can see and realize some better changes whenever I'm positive or optimistic. I build up myself into a better person each passing day. Humans have made the once wonderful world into the now hellish place, and obviously we don't need to be a part of it. People can't think and act rationally when their minds are filled with negativity. Then horrible things like wars, arguments, or fights happen. And life gets worse.

Let me just give you an example. Every day, we are prone to criticism. We get criticized, we hear critics and we critic others. We get it from the boss, some big-shot people who think they're one hell of a great person, the customers or even someone we don't even know. It's normal and it's in human nature itself that we get angry or offended when we are criticized. When the element of criticism is thrown straight into our sorry faces. I admit I get offended and sometimes, angry too when some criticized me. However, I learnt that by critics, I can see my flaws and imperfection and have the chance to improve myself – be a better person. And yes, I admit I hate it really much when The Boss criticized me or offend me of my work even though I know I have tried my best. But I will try my best to take it as an advice and as I get used of doing that, I realized that my work ethics are getting better. And I have become more professional instead of acting like a salesgirl trying to be a big star. I've become more organized than ever, faster in completing my job and my multi-tasking skills have proven a lot – I can even play games, check in Facebook and do my work at the same time. And yes, I can complete the work within the time limit given to me. Sometimes, earlier but rarely later. I always get attention from my boss and day by day, she starts listening to me and cares about my work – unlike before.

I'm feeling very uneasy now when I am surrounded in a small area with negative energy circling around me. It drives me to my nerves and I'm trying my best to keep my positive energy within me – don't want to be contaminated with these dirty and dark energy. And I'm losing my cool. I'm actually trying to point this out to some people, whom I can't even give advice straight in the face cause they think I'm spitting cock-shit out of my mouth, and I know that particular good friend of mine will read this post. But hey, this post isn't just for him. It's for all for my friends.

My advice is start seeing and taking things in positive ways. Even God loves to be positive. See the way He creates wonderful miracles for people who have hopes and faith, but omens come when His people are against Him. Same thing applies to us. Like I said, it's all in nature. Karma. That's it. You give out positive energy to yourself and to those around, you'll get positive effects. You give out negative energy; you'll get shit coming into your face. Simple as that.

P/s: I'm beginning to realize that I can write better and in peace when I draft out in Words first before I post it up in the blog. And you'd be surprised if I tell you that this post has more than 850 words as I type. I surprised myself too.

some things are better to be left unsaid.

**deleted**

it's hard to speak myself out these days.

tiny weeny rants.

Note : This post will have series of irrelevant stories and encounters with each paragraph moving by. Just bear with it, I'm dead bored at work now.

Every morning when I step into the car for work, first thing I always do is to switch the radio on. and tune into Fly FM. I love the Pagi Show with Ben, Nadia and Phat Fabes. Every morning, they will have something interesting to chat or rant on, and they never fail to crack jokes. silly jokes. It's nice to have some silly laughs in the morning before going to work. It blossoms you up and get the mood in ready for the day ahead.

Anyway, this morning's chat was about Nadia and a girl working at a toll-booth. She was on her way to work, and she stopped at a toll plaza and the girl who was on shift that morning (it's 4am in the morning. usually they would assign guys for the shift but not sure why a girl was on the wee morning shift). So, while Nadia was waiting for her change from the girl, she complimented the girl about her physical features - how beautiful she was and Nadia told the girl that she could try to get herself in audition for an air-stewardess. *giggles* To make matters worse, Nadia even complimented on the girl's blouse - that the blouse accentuated her looks.

The girl gave Nadia her change, lifted up the gate for her and said goodbye.

And this was the question which turned into a discussion this morning - Did Nadia do the right thing or was she being creepy?

In my personal view, I think it wasn't wrong for Nadia to compliment that girl. I guessed Malaysians aren't exposed enough to these kind of matter. It's just a compliment. And please don't tell me that a person can't differentiate whether another person is flirting with him/her or just being sincere by complimenting. Oh wait, "aren't exposed enough" isn't the right sentence to be used. Let me rephrase - Malaysians are still narrow-minded. It's kind of sad to see and realize in what state Malaysians are in now. The world has modernized, and I think we should make an effort to modernize ourselves too. And yes it's true that in foreign countries, the people are more welcoming than our people here. They are full of warmth and hospitality compared to our people. and yet, Malaysians are so proud with their "hospitality" slogan. I've heard such slogans around in this country, but too bad couldn't recall any of them. Malaysian Hospitality, wtf?

anyway, moving on..

My mum was ILLEGALLY terminated from her post as a Safety Officer a month ago. And till now, she hasn't got into any interview yet. And yes, she's getting more desperate for job each passing day. Well, some people need to work for food right? so, if any of you seen any job vacancies for Safety Officer, preferably in Marine Industries, please let me know. Thanks in advance.

Next!

I'm munching on bread with Nuttela's Choco-Banana Spread on it, for lunch. Kind of sad, I know but I prefer to munch on bread and crackers rather than not having any savings in my account. Yes, I'm doing this for future purposes. But then, Nuttela's Spread is yummy enough for me. Plus, I need to lose some weight and shed off these ugly fat off my tummy.

Moving on..

Patt invited me to play Restaurant City on Facebook, another adorable application by Playfish. And as like others, I got glued to it already. Anyone wants to have a feeling of running a virtual resturant, please leave me a comment and I'll send over an invitation.

*blur*

I think my maturity have caught up with me despite of my age. Do you believe it if I tell you that I no longer enjoy the company of my peers, but prefer and feel comfortably hanging out with old folks with the youngest amongst them is about 40 years old? Well, it's true. I found bliss and feel the comfort and warmth when I hang out with these old chaps. They tell you their stories, experiences and whatever advice they give you, you can count on their piece of mind - just cause they've been there, felt it, done that. I no longer find fun and enjoyment doing the things that pre-adults do. I mean, young people. Like hanging out at Nando's or McD's. Wasting a whole stash of money there just talking craps. Or clubbing. I admit I miss clubbing life, but I just take a quick look in the past and I'm over it. And what's in the list of entertainment for me now? Here's some:

1. Dinner at a Chinese restaurant. Or maybe in the Italian restaurant in OUG.
2. Often, dinner in Desa Petaling. and yes, dinner includes Chris - our 55 year old chap.
3. Before bed, read a chapter or two of a novel, or maybe playing with the kittens.
4. Weekends are spent buying necessities for the house, mainly for the kitchen.

And those are all of it, actually.

Anyway, my fingers are turning blue now due to the over-blasting aircond in this room, so I think I'll just stop for now. Plus, Hubby is scolding me for eating and blogging at the same time - dropping bread crumbs all over the working cubicle. Euw, I know.

Later!
