As 2008 comes to an end

Hmmm........ As 2008 comes to an end and 2009 approaching us in 3 days time, I am praying and hoping that things will turn out to be better.

4) Done parasailing for the very FIRST time - :)
5) Few work related trips to KL, Penang, Port Dickson and Sadao, Thailand - :)
6) Family gathering in Cameron Highland - :)
7) Met 'new found' relatives in Klang - :)
8) Been to 3 different churches other than the one I normally go to - :)
9) Hung out more with friends - ;)
10) Hand in resignationl letter but was asked to stay back but switch department - :)
11) Some bad memories which took me a few months to forget - :(

I am sure there are still many events that had happen but i just can't recall!!!!! Arghhh.........
Anyhow, am looking forward to 2009 and hopefully, something good is gona happen!!

Why do people tell unintentional lies??

If you don't understand by the above said question, let me explain in a very simple way. It's lies people tell in order not to dissapoint, angered, saddened, etc....some other people be it our grandparents, parents, siblings, friends, children, employer, employees, etc........

The most common one is between children and their parents. Why do children do this? I personally don't think or feel that they do it on purpose. Maybe there are a handful who does it intentionally but i also believe there are children who are "force" to tell their parents this unintentional lies. This is because whenever they tell the truth, their parents will scold them or fully disagree with them. Thus in time, they are more confortable telling lies to their parents so their parents will not get dissaponted in any way. Come to think of it, i feels that parents should sometimes allow their children to explain themselves rather than shouting or showing faces at them at everything they do. What do you all think? Anyone who have a better explanation for this?

Sometimes i really think what is right for us to do. Of course it is right to tell the truth but then when we tell the truth, we will be wronged and if we tell lies, people tend to believe what we said. So in conclusion, everyone will eventually tell lies. Am i not right??

Lost!!

Stressed up? Tensed? Angry? Happy? Excited? I am al mixed up. Duno what's my feeling right now!! Duno what's causing all this mixed up too. Arghhhhhhhhh.............LIFE!!!!

What NONSENSE!!!

Not letting a lil' girl appear on stage coz she's not pretty enough?? Oh my God!! What are those people thinking. She's is just a lil' girl for goodness sake!! An innocent child. What will she grow up to be thinking that people once despise her coz of her looks. Come on.... She looks cute ok.

That was what happen to the lil' girl who sang during the opening of the olympic last Friday. The girl you saw was not actually the girl who sang. The lil' girl who sang was hidden somewhere and the girl who appeared was actually not singing but was only mimicing.

Haih........even a lil', innocent child is being labelled nowadays.

Warm and stuffy

Arggggg....................The weather is soooooooooooooooo hot!!! Even with the aircond on, i am still feeling warm. What is happening to our earth? We have to sop pollution!! Stop open burning!! Recycle and safe electricity!! STOP GLOBAL WARMING!!!

Olympics 2008

Everyone seems to be in the OLYMPIC mood now. But as for me, it's still like any normal days. Maybe bcoz of work load that i don't even have the mood to actually feel excited bout it. I use to get excited and will follow up on all the updates of any major sports event but currently, i am not as "crazy" as i used to be. Probably will only follow up on badminton, that also if i have the time to sit in front of the idiot box.

Anyhow, saw the opening ceromony yesterday but did not watch till the end coz was too tired and sleepy. Was surprise to see that Malaysia's contigent was so small. But anyhow, small does not mean they can't win back some gold for MALAYSIA!! Go MALAYSIA.

What a nice night.....

Hmmmm......Had a nice time with Miss Cheong, Su and Farrah yesterday. We had dinner at the newly opened Moven Peak Restaurant at Ipoh Parade. We had steamboat but this is the individual kind where each of us will have our own pot of soup and we can choose what we wana eat on the conveyor belt circulating the whole restaurant. (Similar to those at Sushi King). We even went to th eextend of taking the food and found it not appealing and thus put it back onto the conveyor belt. Hehehhe.... We will never do that at Sushi though.

While eating, we suddenly thought of another vacation in Penang this time with Miss Cheong. We were so excited that we plan to go on Merdeka. Hahha.... Well, we'll see how thing goes before we can confirm whether or not we are going for that trip.

After dinner, we went to the Thai Fair in Ipoh Parade as well. Was planning to get a pair of slipper but ended up buying a pair of slipper, two bags and food - Coconut and durian candy, mango with glutinuous rice and a cup of 'thai special' drink which i forgot the name.

Hmmmmm......... back to work now!! Hehehe...

Looking back

While on the way back from KL this afternoon, things just came into my mind and there are 2 events which i thought was kinda nice and memorable. Maybe after reading what i am about to write, you will think it's just plain simple but to me, it's by far still kinda memorable to me.

Ok, 1st one - Farewell party for my ex-boss. Mr. Cheong SK. We were discussing about having one farewell for him and thus we asked when is it suitable for him. Unfortunately, he was so reluctant to have us organize it. But to no avail, we went on with the plan but no one dares to confront him to ask him to attend the party. So, out of desperation, we wrote him a little note, pass it to him the day before the party just before we were all leaving the office. Just as we were getting ready to go home, he came to our place and so we thought he was going to talk about the party, but NO, not a single work about it. So fine. I went home leaving my colleagues with him. The next day, still not a single word about the party. We went on doing our work and when it came to lunch time, we invited him again. We were all waiting anxiously whether or not he will join us and YES, my boss, ex-boss now, finally came. Yah it sound a little dramatic but yes, it really happened. He was probably too sad to leave that is why he did not want to attend it but we were just doing something nice for him for all the teaching and guidance he had given us.

A little token of appreciation - Presented by Fauzi to Mr. Cheong SK.

It's makan time!!
















Then there is another farewell party for Mr. CSK which took some time for us to ask him to attend too..... FInally he agredd and i quickly offered to fetch him before he changed his mind again. We went for steamboat in moven peak. Although not many attended this 2nd one, but alas it was fun and great.





The 2nd one - Fauzi's surprise bday celebration. There was no plan for this at all. As i was going out for lunch that day, i told the others that i was going to get Fauzi a piece of cake as we will normally celebrate bdays of QA staffs every end of each month. And thus came the "big" plan to give him a surprise. I was asked to get a whole cake and we will share it among ourselves. So, there i was, buying the cake and hiding it once i am back in the office. Sharp 5pm, we brought the cake out, light the candle and walk towards him ( He was trying to complete his job in our meeting cum training room ) while singing him the bday song. I duno whether or not he was surprise as we were told the plan has been leaked out but not one of us told him anything?? Still a mystery to us as how it leaked out. Probably it's just a rumour but i am glad we did it for him.

Then there was another surprise for him by his subordinate who invited us as well. Unfortunately, they have to break the surprise as well as Fauzi was suppose to take leave on the day they planned and so they have to tell him about it and asked him to attend the party. How sweet of them for organizing it for him.

His bday party does not end there as he will be having another one from QA as we have not celebrated the bdays of those born in July yet. How lucky, 3 bday parties in one year. Hehehehe......

p/s: Can't upload the photos... Will try again some other time.

How time flies

Going to KL again tomorrow. It's my last out of the 8 seminars I have to attend. I have been going to KL once a month for the pass 7 months and I just can't believe how fast time flies as I can still clearly remember the 1st seminar i attended in January. These 8 seminars by Dr. Ho is really very knowledgable for us who are working in the rubber industry.

I can count myself very lucky as I got to experince the real rubber processing last Saturday at KLK Berhad in Tanjong Malim. I am sure many of you must have realize the big rubber factory by the highway if you are passing by Tanjong Malim. That is the factory i visited. After 7 months of listening to Dr. Ho, I can now understand more on how field latex are process into raw latex before it is sent to rubber industries to be produced into final products - gloves, balloons, condoms, etc.....

Although i need to wake up at 5am tomorrow, i am kinda looking forward to attend the last seminar as he will be talking on dipping process in glove industries.

I'm back

I know i have not been blogging for 4 whole months. Now i am back but duno how long this will last. Was so caught up with so many things. So many to blog about the past 4 months but just don't have the mood to do it. So much had happen - sad, angry, dissapointed, shocked,etc...... U just name it, i must have felt it.

1st there is this shocking news from a friend and i am just hoping to forget about it already. I thought i have but......NVM. FORGET ABOUT IT!!

Than there is an even more shocking one - MY BOSS (ex-boss now) resigned. I have gotten so use to his way of working although he is very very strict when work is concern and then something like this must happen. I can't deny that there are times that I wish I was not working under him but nooo..............I DO LIKE WORKING UNDER HIM!! God is so kind to me that he actually granted me my "wish". And what is worst is that i cant even be there on his last day of work as i need to attend a seminar in KL. I actually cried the day before when sending him home after our farewell makan with him.Not only me, the whole department felt so weird the day when he was not there anymore. We actually miss all the scouldings we used to get. It has been almost 2 months since he left but we still miss working with him.

Then there is our new boss - LADY BOSS who we have to get use to the way she works. Honestly, till today, i am still not getting use to the way she want things done. Still trying hard!!
Need to be strong in coping with work now!!

OK forget about work now!! When for The Mummy today with my colleagues and it was actually quite good but a little fake. Nevertheless, i still enjoyed it.

Well, seems that i just can't get work out of my head. I better just stop here now before i go on rambling about work again.

Weekend

Gone is another weekend. Back to work again tomorrow. Had a nice time though this weekend. Went for a movie with Danny last night and it was a sudden plan. We went for 27 dresses. I was suprise he actually wanted to watch that instead of spiderwick chronicles. But anyhow it was a fun movie. After that he said he wanted supper. So was asking me to suggest a place. As i kinda dislike suggesting places to makan, we just took a round around East and found nothing suitable. So he suggested that we go for 'lok lok' in south. While waiting at the traffic light, he said he wants to go to Sim Gary and so i switch lane when i had the chance. And once i switch lane, he said "I was just joking"... Arggg........Told him to make up his mind and he also 'anything la'. After much 'quarelling' we end up in Mcd. That's my saturday.

Went for another movie with the kiddos today. Went for Dr. Seuss, Horton hears a who and Sean followed. Reached JJ at about 1.30pm and show only starts at 4.45pm. So i gotta layan them for 3 hours. Hmmm...imagine. Alas, had a nice time with them today too. Sean slept off before we even went into the cinema and so we thought ok he can sleep through the whole show. And just as we entered the cinema, he woke up and started crying asking to go home. He was shocked i guess. Luckily manage to talk to him and he sat still throughout the whole show only ocassionally asking to go home.

Alright, till then ADIOS!!

LIFE!!

Hmmm......LIFE!!! People come and people go. That's life most of us will say. Heard of 4 funerals in 2 days. That's bad. Got a very very shocking news yesterday when i came back from work. One of my church member passed away all of a sudden while working. I was so so so shocked as i just saw him on Holy Thursday. Hmmm....maybe God loves him more. Let us all pray for him that he rest in peace and aso for his wife n daughters that they may come to accept the loss that they are facing.

Kiddos!!

I misses my little nephew!! Yah i do. Some may think i am crazy for missing him coz we do meet up weekly or the most 2 weeks once. N yah wen i told Kelvin this yesterday, he thinks i am crazy too. Hahahaha..... Don't blame me coz he is the only one who can brightens up my day. When things don't go as plan or when things turn up unexpectedly, little baby is the only one who can really cheer me up. Although he can't be my listener or adviser, but his cute little ways of doing things can get my mind completely out of all the unwanted 'misery'.

Not forgetting his two other siblings who accompany me to movies when i have got no one to go with. (The truth is i am taking them for the show they so wanted to watch). Hahahha.... We got a new activity together also and they do enjoys it... BOWLING!! Nic actually cried the other day when all his throws when into the 'longkang'. Poor boy.







Another nephew of mine who is in KL. We hardly meet but still he is always in my heart. And another addition to the kids clan, who just came into the world 3 weeks ago. Sorry no pics of the little one yet. Here's a pic of his elder brother though.







Kids are so adorable when they want to and can be a real angel at times. Haha...But at times....you will know what i wana say rite. Hehehe.............

Happy Easter

To all Christians out there.......... HAPPY EASTER!! Hav a blessed and wonderful Easter.

Oh no, it's starting to rain again. Hmmmm....... Goin off to sleep now! hahhaha...

Holiday

Hmmmm....finally another PUBLIC HOLIDAY tomoro!! Since i started working, holidays is just something i am always looking forward to. Even if it's only a day in the middle of the week, i will truly appreaciate that day. This kind of day of only happens once in a blue moon and that is why i will truly cherish it. Hahahhaha..... Working life is no more like studying life where we will get 1-3 months of holidays. Now the most is also 2-3 days.

Hmmmm....what should i do tomoro? Will probably just relax my mind from work and hopefully nothing about work pops out in my mind all of a sudden and hopefully NO PHONE CALLS from work place. My colleagues are all still working tomoro as they are all under operational level and will get their day off on saturday instead. Whereas for me, i am under administration level and so i get the day off tomoro.

Alrighty then!! So long farewell, i wana say goodbye..... goodbye...........................

Monday bluesss

Its Monday again!! As usual when to work with a heavy heart. What's more with the unsettle problem. So was kinda reluctant to go up to my boss to settle things as it's his first day back at work after 2 weeks of training. But alas, havta as the others are waiting for his approval. So i told my colleagues "Saya nak pergi menghadap Yang Dipertuan Agong sekarang" and they was laughing so hard. So i when n lucky for me my boss was in a good mood. Got eveything settled and my mood changed instantly and it lasted till NOW!! am glad.

It's Holy Week and when to the 1st night of service just now. Sometimes i do wonder to myself why izit that i only take time to pray really hard when things goes wrong but when things goes on right, i hardly thank the Lord for what i have. It's as though a burden have been lifted of me but all i do is be happy yet ignoring the feeling of another party and in this case it's my Lord-Jesus Christ. And sometimes i keep asking for the same thing over n over again until i got so fed-up n i just give up n stop asking although it's not settle yet.

Hmmmm...........i guess i'll stop here for now as i can hardly think of what to write anymore!! Am so sleepy now. *yawn*

New comer

Halooo everyone... I am new here. Was blogging in xanga before this but thought of shifting to a new environment. Hope to be more hardworking and more active to blog. Hehehhe.... Now as work took over most of my time, i find myself hardly doing anything else besides working, eating and sleeping. I will have many things plan out but at the end it will never be carried out. Reason-too tiring after a days' work. Sometimes it seems like work really haunts me. It's in my mind when i eat, when i am hanging out with friends and even when i am about to sleep. Worst, work comes into my dreams as well!!! Arggggggg...............My life is all about work. Time to only think about work when i am at work!!!

Was telling myself not to think about work today and to enjoy my only day off but alas a sms came and spoil my whole day. And yes, it's about work AGAIN!!! Planned to go for movies with my colleague and cousin but after getting the sms, was thinking of cancelling the plan as i won't be able to concentrate but anyhow i went ahead. Luckily the movie was funny and entertaining and it kinda got my mind of work and half way through the movie i got a call and its from WORK again. I decided not to take that call but felt bad so i sms the fella who called me and luckily it was not any major issue.

*SIGH*
It's Monday again and back to WORK!!!
