~Wonderful~

The story of the weekend begins with me waiting for the arrival of special guests. I was relieved to see them arrive safely after the bus broke down. It was a wonderful weekend. This time gathering brings back those good old days memories. I really don’t know how to express it in words but it just a great feeling. Those candid pictures seems so cheerful than those stagnant n boring pictures.. I watched the recorded video, the incident seems so fresh but it is already the past. It is just so sweet and wonderful. This gathering left us physically exhausted due to lack of sleep but it is worth it to have another stamp of great footprint in our life journey.

Everyone was having fun with my guitars :D

Everything seemed so rush that day. I am so glad that they traveled to Penang to meet me because I can’t make it back to Ipoh. Well, I hate farewell moment but this is reality that everyone has to face. Good thing comes and goes.

Their comment on me, I had changed and I do admit that I did change from the past 4 years. Life experiences and environment have great impact in my life. :D

I met up a friend from KL.. a pleasant chit chat moment.

Good time passed so fast, now it is back to reality. Monday will be another battle field day again.

This was indeed a splendid weekend.

Take 2

I wonder why we always be think we are not good enough..…After certain thing happened, I wish I can turn back time and do it a better way. Perhaps, we are just normal human who make mistake. Or it is because I care too much on how people think about me.

Have been busy lately, I am glad that I have some peace to sit in front of my pc and to surf and enjoy the carefree moment. Hope to have forever Saturday. Monday, will be a rat race again.

Today, nothing much in the schedule, just have to drop by at few banks to settle credit card payment and education loan. Then, perhaps buy something for lunch or dinner, depends what time I get out to settle this.

Practise guitar is a must thing. I chose it and I have to love it :)

Singapore

I have been thinking and thinking this for a long very time ago. There are times when I feel like just want to go there and leave Malaysia. Words are to say, but when come to action will not be that easy anymore.

I asked myself “Does earning a little bit more but I might live in a more depressed condition worth going to Singapore?”


Now I am in Penang, there are times when I feel very very down, I just have to pack my bag and head back to ipoh and forget about doubts and problems for weekends. At least for the few days, I don’t have to think about my job, future, goals.. just sit back and enjoy the moment spent with parents.

And if I move to Singapore, then going back will not be that easy. Then where should I go? Where? Lock myself in my room and cry my heart out?

I will not move to anywhere unless I have a very sure feeling that the new environment will promise happiness to my life.

However, I might move to Singapore when suddenly I want to gamble my happiness. As people say the more you risk take, the more you will get in return.

Frankly speaking, I don’t have the courage to gamble with whatever I have now. What I have now don’t really fulfill what I am chasing for and still a very far away from here. But if I put my foot into Singapore I might lose everything that I have now. Everything..

Called me coward, stupid or whatever… those little happiness might turn into ashes with just my one step….then I will lost everything….

20 things to do in ur 20s

Read an interesting magazine’s article that I would like to share.

1) Be ur own stylish
§ Complete ur kit with a few good handbags, earrings and shoes and a stand out accessories.
(I hv few handbags, shoes but no earrings coz I don’t hv earring holes. Wonder what kind of stand out accessories that I hv..hehe)

2) Globetrot
§ Must travel to at least 3 or 4 countries foreign land just to c what life is like on the other side of Greenwich.
(I qualify 4 this one: I had visited to London, Brazil and Vietnam, wanted to travel more but traveling require $$)

3) Know ur accessories
§ By ur 20s, there r several things u should know about b4 buying a jewelry. 1st, the 4 Cs (cut, clarity, colour and carat). Next, gemstone (birthstone, anniversaries, shapes)
(Well, this is an expensive investment :P)

4) Narrow ur chum list
§ The ‘you jump, I jump’ brand of friendship wont cut it anymore from 20 onwards. As other priorities precedence in ur life, the less important friendships u hv will start to drop 1 by 1.
(I can c this is happening..)

5) Have plan B
§ U can be doing really well now, but tomorrow might not be the same anymore. Think for plan B now. Hone a skill you can trade in the event your spanking new start-up closes shop in the economic crisis.
(hmm.. I should think about my plan B now, I hv to spend more time in guitar. If economy turn down, then I can play guitar along the street in Batu Ferringhi .. hehe.. just kidding)

6) No more pity dates
§ Tell them that u r not interested gently. :P

(Investment is good, perhaps it is time for me to really think about this)

8) No more bitchiness
§ No bitchiness. Resolve differences by smiling and keeping an open mind – by now u should be old enough to realize that you don’t know anything.
(Never act impulsively. Try to put a smile if possible or let’s put it the other way have to smile in the appropriate situation)

9) Be man independent
§ Learn minor plumbing, hammering and nailing.
(shouldn’t be a problem 4 me)

10) Remember names
§ (I think I am disqualify this.. hehe)

(I can cook simple food if I want to)

12) Hv favorite wine

13) Lose body art
§ (I don’t hv any, so no worries)

14) Care 4 your nails
§ Nails speak volumes about ur personal grooming (Will try my best to keep it sexy, but sometimes it’s just too difficult when I play guitar. This is the price :P )

15) Know ur music
§ (Sad to say I don’t hv any favorite type of music, I just listen to those songs that make my feel good )

16) Keep current
§ (trying my best to keep to current, sometimes just too lazy to keep myself updated)

17) Know ur government

18) Wear high heels
§ Hv at least 3 pairs of 2-inch heels
(Well, I hv only 2 pairs, do i need to add one more pair? :))

Broadband down

No connection to the internet makes my life miserable. I just don’t know how to describe the feeling. I think I need a change in life. I have a number of things that can get myself occupy but yet I can’t stop that sad feeling drowning me. Life is like no motivation to continue at all.

Opportunity never knocks your door twice

I have been with this company since I graduated. Patience is the one of the reason that I am still here. I waited and waited from nothing to something, the day has finally arrive that I am able to involve in a big project. It is like sunshine after days of raining.

Another opportunity is knocking at my door, I plan to reject it because taking this one means I have to give up the current project that I am handling. This is indeed a good opportunity, they offer me a permanent position but not doing the same thing. I can do .NET.. the language that I fond in some time ago with this new position.

I just feel a little wasted if I let go this permanent position where I can enjoy the company’s benefits. I am certainly clear that if I miss this one, I might to wait for a long time to get a 2nd one.

Going to make the decision soon or actually I already had it in my mind but just haven’t officially sent the confirmation out.

KL + Inspiration..

Went to KL last week, I don’t think I will like KL. In KL, to get from one place to another is very far, 30 minutes drive is consider near. To me, 15 minutes is near.

Met a friend there and he said he had just been hospitalized for 1 week due to lung infection. But none of his friends know about that except his housemate who sent him to the hospital. He is someone who can make friends very easy but still admitted that KL is a boring city. If I was him, I think I also don’t want anyone know about this. It gave me the feeling that it is just another lonely soul in the giant city.

I finally realized why my cousin suddenly moved back to Ipoh after years spent in KL. She was in Penang in April and asked me to join her in KL. The news came out of a sudden that she moved back to Ipoh in June. She claimed most of her friends were coming back to Ipoh. I truly understand her feelings now.

Until today, I still couldn’t find the answer that I have been looking for since the day I stepped out of my university.

If I ever move to KL … I will just be another lonely soul in the concrete jungle. However, no one will know what the future will hold. There is still possibility that I will be there even though I don’t like KL. I really couldn’t imagine myself in the move again. I just freak to hear “moving” again.. I have so many things here.. but I can never tell the future.

I think the most important in life is work extremely hard to get what I want. Work hard and play hard. Have to be stronger and fight for what I want! Lack of inspiration in life..

ME

..

Cant think of a suitable title for this entry. Just leave blank. Yesterday, was the final working day for a friend, she chose to concentrate on her master and resign from current position in Intel. I am really happy for her to be able to become a student again and leave the working world for a moment. Been in this working world for more than a year, it is not as easy as it seems to be. Sometimes, it is just too much work to be on the top, it is a lot easier to be a frivolous gal and have all the fun that I want.

Oh No!

I can’t be sick. Sick will only delay my job delivery and affect my performance. Tons of tasks waiting for me to settle. Big project is on the roadmap, I really feel great to be able to involve in this project, my role will be small but it is more than enough to get me busy till the end of this year. =) This is because I waited too long to handle big project, and this project really enlighten my life. Something new and something more challenging are getting me excited and motivated. Today, the air conditional in the office is killing me and I cant stand anymore, so I went home at 6 pm, if I am not sick I will be able to work longer. Wanted to clear some of the task on my table … else I will be overloaded with work ..hehe

Everything is BROKEN!

Picking up the pieces now ..

SnAiLs

Well, I really don’t know what should blog, mind just blank. It was already almost 6 pm and I was still waiting feedback from DBA.
I requested “hey, got any funny stuff to share?”

A : yup, I got … I keep snails at home..
ME : what u keep snail at home!! …
A : what’s the problem? I keep it inside a box …there many snails in my kitchen, so every time I found one, I will put inside the box.. they are cute!
ME : HUH.. this is crazy .. this is first time hearing ppl keeping snails. HAHA So, what do use to feed ur lovely snails?
A : Vegetables, I have a lot of vegetables at home.

Breed snails at home really freak me .. =S

Friday Friday

Well, car’s engine couldn’t start at the basement car park. I just sent my car for car service less than 2 months ago. Luckily, I managed to get a mechanic at the nearby shop to help out. However, after examined it, he said shouldn’t hv anything wrong, ur car still new and ur mileage used only about 7000 km. The engine can start after his magic touch. Anyway, I still need to send my car for thorough checking, I don’t wish this kind of situation happen again. As a result, parked the car very far because I was late. So, this Saturday most likely I will have to spend my times on car wash, car service and MATTA Fair.

Fish + chicken + vege

Initially, I wanted to get a burger at Mc. Donald early in the morning. I realized that Mc Donald doesn’t sell burger in the morning, they only have breakfast meal. So, I ended up buying fish which I don’t know what kind of fish it is but I am sure that I ate this kind of fish before at home :).

I really have the passion in cooking but I hate washing all those cooking utensils after cooking. I am not a good chef..HAHA.. Another thing is, I only have a rice cooker and a slow cooker. Now, how am I going to cook all those stuff that I bought? I will use the rice cooker to fry the fish and the rest of the ingredients will be used for my soup.. yummie…
Ok .. need to go work .. Today will be a working Saturday
