Not tagging anyone.. Some other time =)

3 months only..

From now on till end of April, I am the officer in charge for this particular meeting with this particular person 3 times a month. The previous officer is accepted to join KPLI. Since she was a temporary officer here, she's leaving and today is her last day.

My super boss suddenly came to me and said that I'm the only PT* available to be the meeting secretary. (manade, ade lagi 2 orang tau) Since I am now menanggung kerja with 126 hospitals under my portfolio to take care of. I went to her room to speak privately saying that I wish to decline.. (hahaha, gile! jeopardizing my position here). Dukacitanya dimaklumkan, she hold to her words. "Ala, 3bulan jer. 1 bulan, 3 meeting jer" huhuhu..

You'll find me more often at level **, E*. It may be a nuisance for I'll have more work to do. But I'll gain more experience. Giler, jumpe TK yang digeruni 3x sebulan..hahaha..

Huhuhuhuhu

Lelaki oh lelaki #2

Hari Khamis, tong air tu kosong..
Hari Jumaat, saya cuti..
Hari ni, tong air masih kosong..
Sebab sakit2 badan akibat jogging haritu, tak larat la nak ganti tong air harini.. And lelaki2 yang ada kat sini, masih diam membisu takde sebarang respon terhadap remarks and hints yang diberi supaya salah sorang daripada mereka ganti tong air tu.. Sigh..

Mane ntah lelaki yang voluntarily tolong angkatkan barang bila nmpak perempuan tu dalam kesusahan nak angkat (Wan excluded sebab masa saya nak pindah INTENGAH, sementara nak tunggu saya letak barang kat bilik, dia tolong angkatkan beg Marlin sampai tingkat 3 and Marlin tak habis2 puji Wan sangat gentleman..ihik ;)

Mana entah lelaki yang bagi wanita naik bas dulu..
Mana entah lelaki yang tak berebut naik lift bila die tgk ramai tgh tunggu lift..
Kalau ada pun mesti berniat nak tackle wanita tersebut..

Hehehe, statement2 di atas berbau sexist pulak.. Ada lagi lelaki gentleman, tapi semakin pupus lar..

-If ada lagi 1 Titanic yang sinking, agak2 kaum apa yang ramai dalam boat kecemasan tu, eh?

Lima hari cuti..

Saya mula cuti sejak Jumaat. Memandangkan petang Jumaat tu ada hospital appointment kat PPUM, why don't I take leave. Malas nak bergegas dari ofis mase lunch.. Went to the market with mama in the morning.. Beli barang buah2an and barang makan.. I used to follow Ma every week when I was in secondary.. Sejak kerja, dah lame tak ikut..

Sampai PPUM jam 2.30.. Masuk bilik doctor jam 4.15.. Saya dah tertido kat kerusi empuk jabatan ENT tu..Masuk bilik doctor pun dalam keadaan groggy.. Doctor pun examined sekejap je tak sampai 5min.. Tggu ubat pulak 20min.. Dalam 5lebih baru bertolak balik Selayang.. Pelik, sebab biasanya ENT klinik kat PPUM tak pernah la tunggu lama mcm ni.. Anyway, berbaloi sebab dapat stok ubat 2 bulan lebih kurang RM100 untuk penungguan selama 2 1/2 jam.. So, worth it..

Sabtu- Papa n mama pergi PLKN's Family Day.. Bro Wan gets a 4 day holiday.. So I stayed home with Bro Pian.. Yang terkejutnya pagi tu, Bro Pian tiba2 rajin lap lantai 1 floor kat bawah.. Siap vacuum kerusi meja makan kat dapur.. But something happened and the day ended up not very good.. Pian packed his things and decided to stay at his friend's house in Shah Alam.. The plan to dine together as a family of 5 was ruined =(
But, Mama, Bro Wan and I went out for dinner anyway..

Sunday- Went to Jusco Kepong with Ma.. Cari bunga untuk projek menghiasi barang hantaran dan saje2 nak cuci mata.. Balik rumah, sambung jahit manik kat baju nikah..

Monday- I spent my day at home.. I was doing my beading project for my baju nikah.. Mama menyiap2kan bunga pahar-letak lidi and kain net.. I did some surfing on doorgifts.. Found some cool stuff but very the mahal.. Anyway, I discovered that bekas porcelain mcm ni (lihat gambar) baru RM2.50.. Tapi labu sayung kita yang dah cat, dikilatkan diiklankan di internet ade yang mencecah RM4!! Camne produk kita nak bersaing dengan produk luar cmni?

Bro Wan's friend from Sabah (budak PLKN) is staying with us. He went out to meet his friend during the day but ended up lost in KL.. So we went to pick him up at CM and I missed watching last episode of Laila Majnun.. Sape tengok, bagitau ending die please...

Tuesday-I thought Mr.Joe was kidding about picking me up for a jog on Tuesday morning.. At 6.40am, an sms received, "Abg dah keluar".. I called back dalam keadaan mamai.. "Keluar gi mane".. "Kuar nak gi jogging lar" he replied.. Sepantas kilat bersiap, gosok gigi, basuh muka and tukar baju.. Ala2 masa DPA dulu la ni bila terbangun lewat untuk senaman pagi hari Khamis.. So, we went for a jog at Taman KLCC.. Tak habis 1 round dah pancit.. Ape da..(And now my body hurts all over sebab dah lame tak exercise) But I managed to finish 2 rounds.. Next week, mgkin nak jog kat FRIM or tempat main layang2 kat MRR2

Later in the morning, Mama, Bro Wan and I went to watch 'Maut' at KLCC.. Nak tgk Inkheart, Brendan Fraser tu orang Jew, so taknak lah.. Sifu n Tongga is a big NO.. So, we watched 'Maut'.. A good movie.. Pergilah tengok.. Menginsafkan.. Cerita tu sangat straightforward, macam baca kisah kat Mastika yang dah difilemkan. Bagi saya, orang Melayu Islam perlu dipertonton filem sebegini.. Cuma persoalannya, adakah golongan Melayu yang hanya Islam pada nama ini (Nauzubillah) akan menonton filem macam ni? Dalam wayang semalam pun tak sampai 30 orang kot.. Sigh..

Teringat masa DPA tayangkan video pasal kematian tu and I was crying like crazy that night sebab tiba2 rasa takut teramat sangat kalau maut tiba2 datang menjemput dan saya sangat2 tidak bersedia.. (And I was pissed at the same time sebab ada manusia yang boleh gelak ketawa menonton video tersebut.. Ape yang kelakar ntah.. bongong!) Kesan video tu terasa sampai saya pergi modul Bomba.. I was so down at Bomba Module sbb semua aktiviti dia membuat saya sesak nafas and mengingatkan mati:

B.A. Galeri-gelap mcm dalam kubur
Pakai B.A.-sesak nafas (mcm orang kesuntukan nafas)
Sewer-macam dalam kubur jugak.
Api panas (mase dalam kontena and oil spill)-teringat api neraka
Water rescue-Bab2 air ni mmg aku lemah lar.. (1 tahun belajar berenang dgn private tutor pun tak pandai2 berenang jugak)

Orang selalu cakap, orang yang nak mati ni dia ada rasa pelik.. And I started thinking of death.. Adakah aku akan mati sebab tu rasa macam ni..

Tiba2 rasa rindu sangat kat Mama masa tu.. I called her almost everyday, broke down into tears.. And I called Fiance Wan elsewell..menangis jugak..takde selera makan and I lost 5kg.. I was so good during OBS and I enjoyed every activity.. Sekali pun takmuntah.. Tapi kat Modul Bomba, I was flat.. Alhamdulillah, semua aktiviti kat bomba dapat dibuat dengan jayanya.. Masa dalam sewer pun, my tank masih tinggal 2/3 penuh because I was calm and relax.. (what ever)..

And now, I'm still alive and happy.. Surrounded by my loved ones.. Alhamdulillah..

~Death waits for no one..

Mentality kita..

Beberapa hari lepas, saya telah pergi membayar insuran saya di T******. Wanita di kaunter tu seorang yang ramah. Bercerita2 tentang kerja. Dia mengomel tentang kesibukan kerja dan menyatakan kepada saya:

Bestla kerja Kerajaan, relax jer..

Huh? Relax mende. Tak relax langsung. Kalau mengulat kat Ofis tu seberapa ketika, confirm kena bawa balik kerja ke rumah untuk disudahkan. Saya pun memperbetul kata2 Cik itu bahawa sibuk atau tidak itu bergantung kepada individu. Sebenarnya banyak kerja yang boleh dilakukan selepas sudah kerja2 rutin selain daripada bergossip dan ber'MLM'..

Kemudian, saya minta untuk print detailed transactions. Cik itu tanya boleh guna kertas recycle sebelah muka tak? Owh, saya amat mengalu-alukan. Cik itu pun masuk ke dalam ofis tetapi kembali membawa kertas baru. Katanya kertas recycle tu ditindan dengan benda lain. Guna kertas baru jer lah. Ayat Cik itu yang seterusnya:

Guna kertas baru pun apa salahnya, bukan saya yang bayar pun.

Saya pun rasa tak puas hati la kan bila orang berfikiran camni. Saya pun cakap lar,

Memang la Cik tak bayar, tapi company Cik yang bayar. Kalau staff membazir, company rugi, cawangan jugak kena tutup.

Dia sengih saya pun sengih.

Senangnya mereka2 ni berfikir kan?

Lepas grad, memang saya terus diterima kerje Govt. Tapi saya pernah ada pengalaman kerja dengan kilang confectionery daripada Belgium selama 3 bulan masa praktikal ijazah dulu. GM nya seorang Cina yang baik tapi tegas n suka peras tenaga staff. huhuhu.. Selama 3 bulan di sana, saya memang didedahkan dengan sifat kedekut company swasta.

-Nak pen baru, pulangkan pen yang dah kering dakwat.
-Nak fotostat, kena tulis dalam buku log berapa page nak buat salinan.
-Mana ada guna kertas Double A 80gsm ni. Fotostat guna kertas 60gsm jer dan kepekatan dakwat fotostat tu memang tak pekat langsung supaya jimat dakwat.
-Nak pergi meeting, pastikan PC off.
ETC, ETC, ETC...

Dari kecil pun memang saya dah didedahkan supaya jimat cermat, dari duit ke elektrik ke air. Dan saya amalkan sehingga kini.

Bos saya dulu tak suke saya hantar draf surat guna kertas recycle. Jadi memang banyak kertas membazir. Bila dapat bos baru, saya try hantar draf guna kertas recycle, dan die terima, saya seronok. Bila saya print surat, saya click pada "EconoMode(Save Toner)" yang mana tulisan tu akan jadi kurus sikit. Tapi tak salah kan, untuk draf jer.

Setengah daripada kita tidak sedar dan suke2 hati nak membazir dengan berfikir "bukan saya yang bayar pun". Pekerja di hypermarket suke2 campak tin makanan.. Tak kisah, yang penting kerja jalan. Bila tin makanan tu kemek, orang tak beli, bukan ke satu kerugian pada organisasi kita? Sambil basuh muka or gosok gigi air dibiarkan mencurah2, takpe "bukan saya bayar bil air".

Kalau kita lihat daripada pandangan yang lebih luas, pembaziran air boleh menyumbang kepada kekurangan sumber air dunia, pembaziran elektrik menyumbang kepada pembakaran bahan api yang lebih setiap hari (penggunan tenaga suria dan uranium masih belum meluas), penggunaan kertas menyumbang kepada penebangan hutan (tak semua kertas kita adalah daripada sumber recycle).

Plastik-penggunaan plastik untuk setiap kejadah barang menambah ruang untuk tempat pembuangan sampah (beli Mentos sebatang pun nak plastik ke, ape ntah). Minggu lepas saya beli eyeliner kat Watson's dan saya cakap siap2, saya tak nak plastik, cashier buat muka pelik.. (???)..

Tau tak untuk setiap 1 plastik sendri apabila membeli di Tesco, dapat 1 mata ganjaran. Pakai beg khas Jusco dan setiap pembelian RM50 ke atas dapat 1 pelekat. bila kumpul pelekat, dapat extra jusco points. Tapi masih jugak pengguna tak nak buat..

Dunia kita pun semakin hari semakin tenat. Kejap2 panas terik, tiba2 ribut sampai tercabut bumbung, banjir kilat..

It's time for all of us to change for a better future..

~Kena tag lagi.. Nanti lah buat kat umah.

Facebook no more..

I regret browsing through Quntum's blog, she tagged me to write 16 things about me..hehehe
Let's start.

1. I went to SPA's interview twice wearing pants. Somehow it never strucked me once that pants is prohibited for ladies in govt (except for certain dept of course). but hey, I pass both my interviews.

2. I like to window shop alone. And I manage to self-control on buy things. So far, I never exceeded the price I limited myself. I shop with credit card to collect points. I pay straight away when I get home.

3. My fave accessories are watch and shoes. I collect watches.

4. I don't like talking in front of the audience..

5. I can sleep anywhere, anytime.

6. I dont eat fatty food,( such as kulit ayam), internal organ, ikan sungai, petai, jering and seafood (segala mcm seafood berkerang).

7. I wore braces when I was 20 for 2 1/2 years. On the last day of my lecture, my Food Chem Professor said to me, "Come here (UKM) and see me when u no longer have ur braces on".

8. I hate mold. I cant stand any of it, on the wall, the floor, the sink. Gross and disgusting..

9. I love staying in hotels.

10. I'm a cry baby.

11. I'm tonedeath tone-deaf that's why I don't sing at all.

12. I never wear sandal and forever wearing shoes. I'm obsess with my feet. I like them fair and clean. My shoes are at least 1.5inches high except for sports shoe..

13. I'm forever obsess with my weight. There's never a time I'm satisfied with it. I'm saving my money to go to weight management centre for spot reduction.

14. I like white chocolate and I only eat chocolate when I crave for it.

15. I don't like colour yellow and red.

16. I think I'm becoming more like Monica. Is it good or bad?

There u go.. A few things about me...

The guy I'm going to marry..

I was such a spoilt brat. Sulking over tiny issue. Made him sad this morning. Then, lunch hour was burdened with JM paper to be submitted to my boss before 2pm. Informing him I don't have time for lunch. I was about to prepare my hot milo when he called wanted to see me outside my office.

Like an angel he is, he bought me lunch!! :)
Worried that I'll have my migraine if I skipped lunch especially during this time of the month.. I made him sad but he still worries about me.. I felt so bad for treating him that way.. I'm sorry...

Thank you so much dear =)

Them again..

All grown up...

Hannah on her 1st day of school.

Hannah and Hariz during Raya 2008

Hariz wanted a pet dog. Hannah's cat became his victim

Hariz and ice-cream

Shaqeel rajin gosok gigi, unlike his mommy..hehe

Miss my anak2 buah..

In 30mins, the clock'll strike 12.. Welcome 2009, gudbye 2008.. As usual, I'm at home, alone in front of the TV. Ma's asleep, Pa is reading like always in his room and Bro Pian went out to stay overnite at his friend's house. I think Wan is asleep too.

I'm just a bit lonely. The house feel so empty. I remember the 1st time we moved in here. I was 7. The house filled with noise and laughter. Bro Wan was merely 1 year old. The siblings talked, laughed, fought and yelled. And one by one leaving the house except me.

A few months before DPA, Niece Hannah and Nephew Hariz stayed with us because their mom went to UK to settle down 1st. Haris was so playful and energetic, we had to 'cage' him in the playpen. Hannah was forever watching Ceria day in day out. I can even memorize The Geng Bas Sekolah song because she watched the same episode all week. I fought with her when I didn't have the chance to watch my fave CSIs. She even hid the Astro remote inside the refrigerator and pretended that she didn't know where it was in order no one can change the channel.

Nephew Shaqil is always the gentle one. A big different from Hariz. Hariz even bullied him (toddler's way) when they stayed too close together. The nice Shaqil is now in Sidney. And I have no anak buah to play with..

Cant wait to see them this August.

Hannah speaks English with the slang. Hariz still speaks Hitler's language. Even Shaqil is learning more words than his cousin Hariz. I really miss them.. I miss my sisters too.. I even miss Bro Wan already..

What do u think..

Ma dah mula bising sikit sebab saya tak menunjukkan sebarang perancangan perkahwinan..
"Ingat 8 bulan tu lame ker huh", terdengar suara2 mereka yang baru abis majlis kahwin. inai kat kuku pun pekat lagi..

So, I did a little research for wedding cards. Visited this website. We thought the cards are quite economical and nice. Until we stumbled into this website. For the price of less than RM1 per piece, we came across some nice cards. Here are some of it.

Choice 1

Choice 2

Choice 3

Choice 4

We prefer either choice 1 or choice 2..
I like Choice 4.. It looks different from ordinary wedding cards. But the space is limited. So Choice 4 isn't a choice at all. hehe

I read a chat forum about wedding cards. Most of them agreed that RM2-RM4 for wedding card is very cheap. I mean, their intonations were liked
"Rm2 only!!! That's very cheap man!!"

Call me a cheapskate, but I think RM2 for wedding cards is just too expensive. If you are inviting 1000 people, meaning it's RM2K for wedding cards only. Anyway, do you keep those wedding cards you received? I know I didn't. Once attended, I put the card in between the old newspaper stacks. Well, I guess money isn't a concern for rich, wealthy people. It's affordable for them.

Sis Yana asked me to check out this website regarding doorgifts. Tetriss Glass tu cute kan? Sis Yana nak sponsor ker? hehe.. Some people go all out about wedding doorgifts. I want something simple that the guests can use it and not just toss it away after attended the reception. Simple, nice yet economical. Any ideas?

~Mengukur baju di badan sendri..

RM20 per movie?

Persatuan Pengeluar Filem Malaysia mencadangkan agar harga tiket wayang Hollywood dinaikkan kepada RM20. Mereka seakan menyalahkan harga tiket yang sama bagi filem tempatan dan filem luar menyebabkan pengguna memilih filem luar.

Bagi saya tak boleh nak salahkan pengguna. Jika filem Malaysia tu baik produksinya, pengguna tidak ragu2 memilih cerita tersebut. Sepanjang hidup saya, saya baru menonton 3 filem Malaysia di wayang: Perempuan Melayu Terakhir, Puteri Gunung Ledang dan Jangan Pandang Belakang. Dan ada filem2 best yang saya tak sempat nak tonton di wayang seperti Qaisy&Laila dan Sepi. Saya bukan anti filem Malaysia tapi filem M'sia kerap kali mengecewakan saya..

Pada satu ketika dulu, saya lebih suka membeli VCD (original tau) dan menonton bersama keluarga. Tetapi selalunya selepas menonton filem tersebut, yang keluar dari fikiran saya ialah "Nasib tak tengok kat wayang".. Dan selepas dari itu, saya lebih suka menunggu filem tersebut disiarkan di Astro pada Hari RAya. Tak berbaloi la weh..

Mengurangkan jumlah filem asing yang ditayangkan di pawagam mungkin satu langkah yang baik seperti yang dilakukan di Korea Selatan dan China. tetapi menaikkan harga tiket hanya akan melonjakkan pembelian DVD cetak rompak. Kerugian mana yang lebih lumayan agaknye??

One hell of a service..

I hate streamyx! It has been extremely slow nowadays. It took me about 5mins to log in to Facebook, 20mins to upload pictures and it hanged so frequently. We just upgraded our streamyx, and this is what we deserved eh? TM, maybe you should reduce your CEOs paycheck and improve the service..

For the time being, I'm hating u.. You're wasting my time staring at the screen while waiting for the pages to load..

~Pissed..

Tell me a bedtime story..

Sleeping late last night watching Supernatural marathon at astro's new channel 809. The channel is airing old drama series such Buffy, Roswell, X-files and Invasion. Anyway, Buffy and Roswell bring back old memories.

Bro In-Law was coming to visit this morning so I woke up early and did some cleaning. Thought of sorting up the newspaper which is one of my favourite cleaning housechore. Sorting 2feet tall of old newspaper may need about half a day because I'll end up reading the articles, cutting interesting recipes (which I never tried doing) and the 'Mind Your Language' section in The Star.

However, sorting newspaper this morning turned out to be yucky when I discovered thousands of TERMITES making new kingdom at my stack of old newspaper. So, it took only 15mins to do the sorting which was the fastest. I burned some of the newspaper with thousands of termites. I know we shouldn't be burning any of the Lord's creature but that thing was creeping me up.

Went to KLCC to watch Bedtime Stories. Adam Sandler is Mr.Joe's favourite actor and it was Mr.Joe's time to select his movie. Bedtime Stories was OK. Funny and light.

Sick of eating fastfood, we decided to eat satay Sahmuri at Taman Melati. When we reached there, I changed my mind and decided to eat Thai Food instead. We saw Restoran Rumah Thai and went there for our lunch. The romantic looking restaurant disappoint me. I was imagining light romantic music but Mawi's reception was on the TV. We were the only customer and we knew why when we ate the food. It paid, I only liked the Apple Asam Boi drink.

On my way back, received an sms from an unknown number:

Ya, boleh tak dtg anta handphone, mp3, bank book and alarm clock.Boring giler kat cni.

Yeah,Lil'Bro Wan sms'ing already. Ma was so excited to see his baby son all botak. So she went there with Bro Pian. hmmph, it's been like only a day he's gone. Anyway, I kinda miss him already. No more teman to watch America's Next Top Model with me. I'll sms u who win for this cycle k Bro Wan?

Bro Wan yang braceface and botak. Sungguh tak hensem =)

Take care Lil'Brother..

Bro Wan registered his PLKN intake 6/2009 today. It's kinda hard to believe that Lil'Bro Wan is turning 18 next February. He is always gonna be my baby brother even how old he is. We differ 7 years. When he 1st started his primary, I was 14. I was the one accompanying him to school everyday till he was old enough to go on his own. Since I didn't attend boarding school, he was with me even when I went back home everyday with my so-called bf that time.

Last night he was packing his stuff for today n I shared my tiny bit experience during DPA outdoor module. When he get back 3months later, we may have something similar to share about.

I gave him a bottle of sunblock . I've peeled the outside sticker. and it looks just like a common moisturizer bottle. A sister will always be a sister I tell u. Thought of giving him many other things but it may embarrass him pulak. Lelaki meterosexual mane lar yang join PLKN ni.

Thanx to a friend of mine at MINDEF, Bro Wan managed to get Kem Temasya Rimba Templer, Rawang. A short distance from home. Easier for Ma to visit his baby son during the weekends.

Gossip Girl=Beverly Hills 90210+One Tree Hill+Gilmore Girls

I have finished watching Gossip Girl season 1 and season 2.. Not bad.. The typical teenage drama thing.. Anyway, I still think One Tree Hill is the best though.. Maybe because I still so much in love with Lucas Scott..

Bro Pian downlo@ded the whole season.. Ch701 and Ch711 seems useless now.. Except for The Amazing Race, CSIs, House and America's Next Top Model, I don't see the big difference of Astro and the free tv channels..

The free channels had long finished Bones, Desperate Housewives and The OC.. One Tree Hill stopped at year 3.. Room Raiders keep repeating the old ones..

Anyway, can't wait for Gossip Girl year 3.. I think Lily went for abortion-the child with Rufus.. Rufus and Lily didn't go for the vacation they planned.. Jenny is so much like Blair, only that she didn't notice..

Nate is actually very cute but I hate him getting back with Vanessa so fast after confessing his feelings to Jenny.. Serena should wear longer skirt..pendek giler sume skirt dia.. I envy those long legs she has though..hmm..

Gossip Girl will be like one of those drama who loses all the spices when it reaches year3 and so on.. Year 3 will be their 1st year at college, hopefully there's some big progress in one of them.. Like One Tree Hill, Nathan and Haley getting married and having a baby..

~At 24 and still into teenage drama

A guy named Joe..

Some1 whom I had lunch with a few days back said about this blog which was not updated for quite sometime..

Geez, that's me..
There's always something came up whenever I wanted to write a new entry, or I ran out of words and ideas..
Anyway, I'm not on leave today..Accompanying Joe to work..I should update my blog..

Joe is Wan's name back during his study days in KMS and UKM.. I laughed the 1st time he told me about it long ago.. And this name was brought up again when he met some of his friends in FB last week with some pictures of him back then..

Joe, u looked so innocent in those pics.. Bak kate Lin, "wajah penuh keremajaan and suci"..For those who have FB and friend with Joe, have a look at it..hehehehe.. Jangan marah k abg Joe..

Or should I post the picture here?? Hehehehe

What have I done..

I couldnt sleep..

Meddling with the templates.. And I accidently lost all the list of blogs I followed.. *sigh*
I'm not the pinky type of person. But this template looks nice.. =)

Awan Dania..

I'm at home enjoying my EL now.. Not feeling well but I refused to go to the clinic, waiting a few hours to get an MC..
I was watching this drama at Astro-Awan Dania.. A drama similar to this Jap Drama called Attention Please. The main character of this Awan Dania was trying too hard to be a mischievous kind of person which is not working at all..

It was irritating instead. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against M'sian dramas.. I do watch some of them, kinda a lot though.. But I hate drama yang ciplak karya orang lain.. Tengok la Attention Please, then you'll know what I mean..

~I miss the Japs Drama marathon thing

Geli2..

Eversince I have this knee pain, I dont use toilet cangkung anymore. Yang peliknye kan kat Malaysia ni, even how clean the toilet duduk is, mesti ada orang nak bercangkung atas toilet duduk.

Gila ape?

If nak mancangkung atas toilet duduk, nape tak pilih toilet cangkung jer?
Katakan lar geli sesangat nak letak peha gebu atas toilet seat tu kan, tak boleh ke letak tisu lapik atas tu ker dulu?? Toilet faberet sentiasa dicemari dengan shoe print yang tak boleh lagi dihilangkan oleh cleaner..

Lagi satu fakta menggelikan, ramai betul mereka yang keluar dari toilet tak basuh tangan. Walaupun tiada sanitizer, at least it is so much better than not washing at all!!!

Saya ni OCD sikit. Kali pertama tengok contoh spesimen air bawah mikroskop, saya dah geli2 tengok mikroorganisma yang berjuta2 lemon tu..

~Mandi dengan air dettol mase modul luar DPA. Baru rase fresh and bersih

Not enough..

While I was driving this morning, I heard from the radio that sex education during PLKN will be revised.

Generally, the purpose of sex education is to prevent the increasing case of illegal abortion and abandoning babies in the trash.. However, the community concerns that the education alone won't be enough to prevent all these problems. It will only induce the sex activity among the teenagers without getting preggie.

I learned that particular education from my secondary syllabus. No, my parents never thought me anything about this at all. I was 1st introduced to that thing during Form3's Science subject. It got deeper when I learn Biology.

My Biology teacher even asked the female students to draw the male's reproduction system and vice versa. She showed us condom, the birth control pills, how IUD is done. Tapi takla sampai tahap menyarungkan kondom pada pisang seperti dalam cerita Never Been Kissed ;)

Then it got more complicated when learning Biology during Matrix where I never got an A for that subject. Anyway, for those who don't take Biology for SPM, they still learn that in their SPM's Science subject. I had flipped through the science book and I discovered that Science subject for art students is just a combination of Physics, Chemistry and Biology subjects.

The sex education is already in the syllabus. The male and female reproduction system, how women get preggie, knowing the STDs, ways to control pregnancy, ways to conceive. Everyone learns that. It was just not called Sex Education.

The sad thing about this is, it happens among the Malay, the so-called Muslim..

Nauzubillah hi minzalik..

Spending $$$$

Seriously I need to buy a new handphone..
Eversince my phone was thrown during the accident a year ago, it's getting crazier and uglier..

Mine is a flip phone. I always slept on my phone with the flip opened.. It has all this big cracks at the join part..I guess, one day I'll wake up with my phone broken to 2 pieces..hehehe..

My ideal handphone is as slim and light as can be.. Easier to fit into my handbag..
I don't go for all the hi-tech gadget in it.. I just need the camera, mp3, sms, mms and application to write notes because my memory thing is getting rustier each day..

I am doing my personal budgeting for year 2009 now..
I have about RM150 extras each month after excluding all the expenses and savings..

I guess, if I managed to restrain myself from buying any accessories (clothes, handbags, shoes) for 6 months, I'll buy myself a new handphone as a birthday present..

Achievable? =)

~2009's wish list..

Depressed...

I need a time break...
Feels like running away to a secluded place and have no interaction with the outside world..

A friend once told me, keeping things to yourself and trying to please everyone around you will only hurt yourself in the end.. Yeah, it's true..

~Owh, my puffy eyes...

Melancholy....

It's just freaking sad when you tried to do something nice and the other person misunderstood for the other way round..

Then, just might else well keep things as usual because all you did are misapprehended as hurting the other person's ego..

Sigh..

I lurve weekends...

It's now 4.25 in the morning..

Since I slept quite early last nite, thought of waking up early to pack my clothes..
Leaving for PD later this afternoon..

I hate, I hate...

There is this workshop organized by my Dept.. Short notice were given to me which I have to substitute this other officer. Then I wanted to upgrade my room so that I can bring Ma along but they told me everything was fixed and nothing can be changed..

I've already made my plan to spend time with Ma this weekend. Thought of waking up a bit late and bermalas2an sms'ing Wan at 5am on Saturday morning like usual.

Mlsnyer...........

BTW, the hotel's name is Hotel Le Paris.. hehehe

Am still here, loved and beloved..

No wonder today's date seems so familiar..

A year ago, an accident nearly killed me.. If I wasnt lucky enough and that day was the day I should leave this world, I may have landed just a few feet from the kerb then I was gone..

I wouldnt be lying on my bed, listening to Anuar Zain's songs and typing this entry with a glistening engagement ring on my ring finger..

When you are at the brink of death, even you have only a few seconds to think, everything in your life gushes through your mind like a movie without a sound. People you love, things you've done, memories with the loved ones. Then you'll be wishing for another chance to live or maybe just an opportunity to see the one you love for one last time to tell them how much you love them.

The accident had made me to be more appreciative in life. I can control my temper better now. When I'm getting angry with anyone, I will think what if this is the last time you'll meet that person.

Talking about temper, I always remember this story Ma told me long ago. About a father telling his bad tempered son on how to control his temper. The father gave his son a wooden board and a box of nail.

Everytime the son got angry, the father asked him to embed a nail on the board. But each time he managed to control his temper and apologize, he can pull a nail from the board. Later, the board was fulled with nails. The son realized how many people he had hurt so he's trying to control his temper. Nails on the board were getting lesser each day.

And one day, there was no nail at all. He excitedly showed his father the board. The father asked him to feel the board with his fingers. And the father said, you had hurt people around you when you got angry but later you apologized. However, everytime you got angry, you actually left a scar in their hearts like the holes in the board. (Lebih kurang macma tu lah ceritanya :)

Anyway, life is short. You'll never know when is your time to go.

So love everyone in your life and live the life the way you are asked to, to the fullest.

I dont cook..

I just ate this delicious mee goreng cooked by Ma..

Amazingly, she can cook it in barely 15 mins.. One time I heard the lesung banging and 10mins later when I went to the kitchen, there it was packed it the brown paper nasi lemak style..

Ma really amazes me on how she manages to cook a few dishes at 1 time..
When I tried to do the same, one ended hangus and the other ended up tak sedap...
30 over years of experiences may have made her efficient in doing so, but still some people stay at the same stage..

Ma likes to modify anything she learned from the book or the cooking show according to her taste and ours..
Her spaghetti has cili padi in it and not as sour as the Italian style.. But we love it so much ;)

I'm still in the process of learning how to cook.. When I was in my Uni years, I used to do the cooking thing quite a lot when I went back home during weekends.. But I noticed that I haven't done much ever since.. Especially after I went back from DPA.. Hmmph, not good..

I will be a wife in less than a year.. Ma said, I should be preparing myself from now on..

For now, when I'm so tired after the long journey back home from the office, I can just lay down and fall asleep waking up the next morning not affecting anyone.. Ma is there to do the cooking and the house thing.. But later when I have a husband and a home to take care of, even how tired I am, the duty is mine as a wifey..

Anyway, to my dear future husband,
Just want you to know that,
I love to clean and tidy things up but cooking is not my thing..
I can cook but I cant promise you that it'll turn nice all the time..
I have a very severe PMS every month which will make me into a very cranky and sensitive person..
I hate people who mess things around the house like leaving the sugar jar opened..
I have migraine when I don't eat my meal on time..
I cannot siang the fish because it'll make my hands itchy..hehehe
And to be a the good wife is my promise to you...

Temuduga...

Saya pergi temuduga tapisan keselamatan tadi.. Luckily, KKM takde soalan di Parlimen, takdelah rase bersalah for leaving my partner all alone kat Parlimen..

Neway, semua yang korang kate soalan temuduga tapisan keselamatan tu kacang, dusta belaka sebab soalan2 saya macam nak interview masuk kerja..

Beberapa contoh soalan:

1. Apa itu definisi Rahsia?
2. Apa yang anda faham dengan Akta Rahsia Rasmi?

(Oh, saya sungguh tidak ada ayat exam..Cuma boleh terangkan secara bahasa pasar)

Then after soalan2 tentang peribadi (termasuk lah no.IC tunang ;), datanglah soalan2 yang bagi saya, saya rela lagi disuruh berdiri tegak and baca Rukun Negara seperti yang Mala buat semasa menemuduga orang..hehehe

1. Apakan pandangan anda terhadap senario politik Malaysia?
2. Apakah yang menjadi kebimbangan anda terhadap keadaan politik Malaysia masa kini?
3. Bagaimana hubungan anda dengan rakan bangsa lain? Boleh berikan 2 nama rakan yang bukan berbangsa Melayu.

Dan 5-6 lagi soalan yang lebih kurang macam tu...

Untunglah saya dah pergi BTN, and semua jawapan adalah ayat2 fasilitator BTN..

Ayoyo...
Adakah ini soalan2 tricky untuk menguji saya berada di pihak mana?
Or adakah ini nak menguji how discreetly I am in giving my opinions?
I was in there for 45 mins!!! Sampai Emma, my pengadil cakap, "Pesal ko lama sangat dating dalam tu.." And Emma went in there afterward merely 15mins..

Ma telah menakutkan saya dengan mengatakan I should have said,

I am entitled to my own opinions and I would not disclose them to anyone..

Waaa, saya kini sudah takut..
Should I or should I not tell him what I've been asked?
Korang rasa ni soalan2 trick ker?

Sebelum ditemuduga as calon, saya berpengalaman jadi pengadil Emma Khamis lepas..
Again, soalan2 THE BOMB..

Apakah kekuatan beliau?
Adakah beliau seorang yang suka memimpin atau dipimpin?
Apakah beliau seorang pemimpin yang baik?
Bagaimana beliau memimpin sesuatu kumpulan?
Adakah beliau layak memegang jawatan sekarang?

Wow, my mind was not prepared for those sort of questions.. Tapi goreng sajelah..

Hmm, I'm worried...

Yang takutnya, Tuan ASP tu senyum jer sepanjang2 saya copy-paste hujah2 fasilitator BTN.. Tak tahu nak jangka saya cakap salah atau tidak... How he sees me when I'm saying all those things..

Takuuuuuutttttttnyer..................

Murderer..

Yer, pagi tadi saya telah melakukan massacre terhadap sekumpulan semut api di atas meja saya dengan melekat2 mereka di salotep..

Yucks, semut api beribu2 lemon di tong sampah..
Bila dikorek2 tong sampah itu, hanya lah ade kulit gula2 and APPLE CORE..
Senegara semut2 api itu telah mengadakan party besar2an di tong sampah saya..

Masalahnya dengan pasukan cleaner di KKM ini, pekerja2nya banyak lari and kekurangan staff..
Sepertimana masalah taman perumahan di Kajang yang Alam Flora hanya mengutip sampah sekali seminggu, begitulah yang dihadapi di Bhgn saya ini juga..

Pagi tadi lalu Pantry Room, wekkkk,(jadi macam Farah kejap..) Busuk amat2 tong sampahnyer.. Bayangkanlah sampah2 makanan yang tak dikutip 2 hari masa cuti hari minggu.. Eeeee, memang busuk gilers...

Dulu vacuum tiap hari, sekarang memang seminggu sekali.. And di tempat kerani tu akan ada salji2 bulat hasil dari menebuk lubang kertas.. Sigh..

Sampai biler keadaan ini akan berterusan...

~kadang2 pelik, takleh ke tebuk kertas tu menghala ke dalam wastebin?

Yaya (T) = Yaya Tembam..

Lelaki oh lelaki..

See this empty bottle..
You'll see this thing will remain empty for the next few days..

Don't know what happen to the guys here in my office.
They just doesn't have the initiative to get things done without being asked.
I got irritated because I need to go all the way in front to clear my thirst, so I change this thing myself.. Saya angkat botol 5 gelen ini dan menukarnye..

Tak percaya?
Tak kuasa dah everytime dah kosong, nak suruh orang tukar..

Tau, tau, perempuan tak sepatutnya angkat benda berat2.. Tapi balak mase kat Ulu Kinta tu jauh lebih berat dari botol ni..

Ini ialah jarak perjalanan nya.. Aderla dlm 10m..

I always change this early in the morning.. Maybe I should do this during semua guy's staff ade. Baru lar mereka rasa tercabar. Tak gitu?

Woi, nak dapat pahala kene buat senyap2 ar... hahahaha

Romance, do they last?

It's almost 10 and I haven't touch anything on my desk today.. Ouch..

Anyway, I have finished reading Mitch Albom's, For One More Day and reading another by Nicholas Sparks, Dear John..

Call me a sentimentalist for I used to be a sucker for romance novel. English romance novel. Having sisters 8, 7 and 4 years older, I first started reading Judith McNaught when I was 10 when I saw they were so engrossed with it. Lots of thing I didn't understand that time but I just cont on reading and rereading all over again when I get older.

Then, I was lost in Jeffrey Archer's. I finished reading As the Crow Flies in just 2 days. Lecture notes were put away and time were spent reading Archer's novels that I borrowed from the library.

After Uni years, I noticed that I haven't read much.. Most of the time were spent 'SMS'ing Wan..Hehehe.. Till now..

Mitch Albom's For One More Day is as good as Tuesdays With Morrie. A simple book with deep, strong words that touches your heart. For those who have issues with their mothers, I suggest you read this book. Then you'll realize a mother's sacrifices you have long forgotten..

I always like Nicholas Spark's.. Romance novel written from a man's point of view differs from the usual McNaught's, Steel's, Garwood's, Deveroux's and many others.

Talking about romance and stuff, I was rummaging a box inside my cupboard a few days back. Things from my past, cards, dried flowers, eccentric notes passed during classes, autograph books and this letter I received when I was 14 from a secret admirer.

I was popular in school for being the pure, obedient and excel student. The summary for that is a NERD..haha.. But my clique during that time were from those who were popular-because-they-are-pretty type of people.. Nerd nerd pun, I had a very hunky boyfriend mase tu tau..hehehe..

Therefore it was something bizarre for receiving letter from a secret admirer because I was just a boringplainjane during school years. The words in it were nicely formed that made me terawang2 when I read it..hahaha.. He even wrote "I like u" all over my table and on the blackboard..

The secret admirer asked to meet but I didn't show up. Then everything stopped..

But I still kept his letter for remembrance ;)

Wan never wrote me a love letter. He's a man who doesn't write but he had done and said so many lovely things..

When I was going away for OBS, he waited till the bus was no longer seen.

He surprised me on the morning I was leaving for Tentera Module and waited till the bus left.

He is willing to stroll in the rain to get me things.

He wakes up early everyday because he needs to arrive at my house to pick me up to work.

He sings in the phone to cheer me up..

Surprises me with flowers and gifts..

Concerns when I'm not eating my meal on time because I'll have migraine later..

And yesterday, when I said, "Air bandung ni manis sangat lar"
He replied spontaneously, "Manis lagi gefren abg".. Awwwwwww.....

Nonie said this honeymoon years I'm having now will finally comes to an end, because the guy will no longer bother to do all those things anymore.. Hmmm...

But I have seen couples who remain having romantic relationship even after 20 years of marriage. The hubby calls and texts when they are apart, flourish with cheeky notes and gifts..
I guess, they are the lucky ones.. And that relationship does exist..

~Praying for the best..

Forgive me, for I have sinned..

I have sinned for wasting time today ;)

This is Ron.. Given to me by a darling friend of mine on my birthday last year..
The card wrote :

Yaya,
You're sweet, kind and charming.
You're simply one in a million.

Nice words eh.. Told you he's a charmer..

My birthday fell on a public holiday last year, so Ron was placed on my table a few days before..

I get to know this friend during PTD Unggul. We're in the same LDK and end up in the same Ministry.. A nice friend to be with.. He speaks his mind (dengan sgguh emosi kdg2 ;), he reads and we think alike.. (kan, kan ;)

Although we don't talk much anymore and spending less time together, u r one of a kind. Dont work too hard ya. Nanti makin kurus..

Keep on being a charmer =)

For the sake of menanggung kerja..

Engagement should be a discreet ceremony known only by family members and close friends. Neway, for those who read my blog, I'm getting engage tomorrow.. And I'm still at work today..

I am menanggung kerja so I cant take leave for 28 days from the date start. If I did take leave, the date will restart on the day after I took leave and the payment will also starts on that day.. So, for the sake of the payment, I am here resting my butt on this chair..

Yang tak acinya, Wan took 2days off.. Today and Monday.. Sleepy and tired from last nite's staying up adding beads on my baju tunang, I had to force myself to wake up and drove to Putrajaya.. I bring along my baju sebab tak habis lagi sewing those beads. Tu lar gatal.. Ngade adding another section of beading work on my baju and I thought I can finish it last night. Too bad, I dozed off with the tv and light on till morning.

Thought of going back early today but I have a meeting later in the afternoon.
I may have to stay up again tonight making sure everything is proper and the house is neat and clean for the occasion tomorrow. Sis Yana will arrive today. Hope Bro Pian is willingly rajin to help around..

I'm so sleepy and not in the mood of doing anything today.. I should have been at home today helping Ma.. =(

~Shite, I have pimple on my nose... Grrrrrrrrrr

Gaji dah masuk yer..

Today is payday..If I haven't any emergency to get a new eyeliner I wouldn't have gone to Alamanda.
As what I've been observing for the past a year++, Alamanda will be full with people a few days before pay day (that is to finish up all the remaining cents they have) and on the day and a few days after the salary is banked in (to belanja sakan).

We ate at Rasa which is unbelievably lots of empty tables compare to ordinary days. Well, I guess, payday means deserving more expensive food other than typical nasi+lauk+sayur. All the fast foods were full house as what I expected.

It's ok for me to eat at cheaper place. (Siap bawa termos ada air sarsi sejuk.) As long as I have carbs, protein, lots of vegies and went back to the office with a full tummy..

Well, I am not buying any new shoes or clothes, strictly. Sampaila habis semua preparation nak kahwin ni which is another 9 to 10 months to go..hehe.. Just realized that I have too much to wear.

My clothes are piling up and none were given to the unfortunates. (Been taken good care of my clothes and havent gain any weight or height since secondary)

~Esok abg nak air sarsi ke air mango? hehe

Hope To Come Here Again

I went for my Umrah 10 years ago along with the rest of the family plus my arwah opah but without Sis Yana who was still in Belfast that time and .

I miss this place terribly. If I had the money, I wouldn't want to go anywhere else other than here. No Paris, UK, New York, New Zealand bla, bla, bla but only the Holy Land of Mekah.

I remember it was during Malaysian Commonwealth Games, we were already on the plane to Madinah. I was in Form 2 and my youngest brother was just in Std 1.

I remember how I burst into tears the 1st time I set eyes on Kaabah. Even my 7 year old Bro Wan was crying. How lucky I am to ever set foot here.

Anyway, being so young and lack a other few things, we (Sis Yani, Sis Yanti and I) sometimes treated the Umrah macam melancong and didn't make full use of the time we had to make as much umrah as we could. I regret that till now. After Subuh prayer we always went shopping.. Hee..

I remember we always woke up late. The Subuh azan was recited twice. The 1st time is like a waking call and the 2nd one is the real Subuh azan. My sweet arwah opah always the 1st one to wake up and prepare herself but she had to wait for the lazy grand daughters to get ready instead.

Ape lagi, kami akan berjalan laju2 supaya tak lewat solat Subuh berjemaah. Sekali dengan opah kena jalan laju dengan kami. Miracle nye berada di Mekah and Madinah, semua sakit2 hilang. Sakit kaki opah pun takde and boleh jalan laju dengan kami.

Cepat Opah, nanti lambat.

Sian Opah.I miss those moments. 10 years ago, Sis Yani was 21, Sis Yanti was 18 and Bro Pian was 13.

After the 1st umrah, kedua-duanye botak kepala and ade ade dua "toyol" bersama2 kami. Bila Pa, Bro Pian and Bro Wan jalan sama2, they looked so cute together..

I wish to go here again. I'm saving up my money and nak ajak Abg pergi sekali lepas kahwin ;) InshaAllah

It's all about money

Eating outside is not cheap these days.
Nasi+lauk= minimum is RM5
Drinks=RM2.

Inclusive of breakfast, total round up will make it RM10 per day.
Assuming we work 22days per month (minus the weekends), minimum is RM220.
For my new monthly budget, I just put RM150 for food. (Gee, getting married is no joke. It's all about $$)

A cheapskate I am. I bring my own home made breakfast and don't buy any drink during lunch. (kan Abg?) I drink when I get back to my office. And I have the 5-10mins gap of no drink after eating. (Seriously it's true, my nutrition lecturer, Prof. Suriah said:
No bath or drink after heavy meals will prevent us from getting buncit.
And I practice those tips during my degree years, betul menjadi. You can ask my housemate, I ate a lot and remained having flat tummy. No sit-up or exercise were done during that period of time.
And during DPA, those tips were left undone. And now, excess baggage on my tummy. *sigh*

Anyway, how to save money and still have a full tummy:
1) Bawa bekal which need full commitments to wake up early to prepare for your food.
2) Don't order drinks and bring along your tumbler to the cafe.

Well, Papa has sensitive stomach. He cant eat outside food. So Mama had to prepare his lunch EVERYDAY. Although his office was in Tabung Haji Building, he still hit the road at 6.30am to avoid the jam at Jln Kuching. So Mama had to wake up at 5.30am to cook fresh food or heated what we ate during dinner the previous night.

Eventhough Papa is no longer working, Mama just cant make herself sit doing nothing after her Subuh prayer. She will pack me breakfast. (Sometimes I did it myself.) When she has the time, she will cook yummy nasi goreng or mee goreng or bihun goreng. or most of the time, she packs me wholemeal bread with peanut butter and jelly. Saving me a few bucks per day.

It is what the wives did during those days eh. Woke-up early to prepare breakfast and lunch for the family to save a few bucks and providing good food, settle-up the laundry and hung them to dry before went to work, get the children ready for school, yada, yada, yada... Mama used to do all those things and she even sewed our baju kurung for four girls.

Being a career woman and having the money to have maids and buy everything from the shop making them do less and less work as a wife. Planning of getting married next year, make me think of lots of things. Am I able to do all those things Mama did back then. It may be too early to think about kids but I dont want my kids to spend more time with my maid rather than with me. (IF I have to take a maid. Because Wan doesnt like the idea of having maid. If taknak maid, kene rajin2 buat kerja rumah tau)

~Tak nak jadi housewife. I want to have money on my own. But what is money when you can't give love to your children kan??

Berlagak, sombong atau PR yang tidak mantap

Walaupun wedding nya lambat lagi, saya mula membuat sikit2 for the big day. A friend suggested Kh****** for wedding photographer. She said, Dia Melayu yang best. hantar je email pada die minta quotation.

Okey fine. thanx. So I did, but this was what he replied,

maaf kami tak layan permintaan sebut harga dan digunakan sebagai untuk perbandingan harga.. sekiranya anda betul2 berminat sila buat appoinment.maaf sekali lagi.

Ape tu? tak layan permintaan sebut harga? sekiranya betul2 berminat? Kita sebagai pengguna, of course we compare prices. Unless kita ni billionnaire yang duitnya mati and hidup semula 10 kali pun tak habis2 boleh pick and pay siapa2 yang kita nak. tak tahu harga, macam mane nak tahu if kita betul2 berminat.

Saya pun melenting sebab orang lain yang berlainan bangsa dan agama pun melayan kita dengan friendly and tak sombong macam ni. Seperti biasa, I replied back dengan ayat2 yang tidak emo tapi penuh sarcasm.

Agaknya mamat tu pun bengang, die reply dengan quotation yang diminta. Pergh, jangan harap aku nak engage kau. Sombong, berlagak!! Ikut hati, nak publish nama dia kat sini. Tapi nant kene saman pulak. Ehehe..

Kalau macam ini la dia treat customer yang datang approach, lama2 boleh lingkup dengan attitude macam ni.

Clue, nama dia start dengan huruf K berakhir dengan I

What's wrong with me..

I realized I had mood these few days. I was easily irritated, I got angry often, and then I cried for no reason.

The jam was terrible yesterday. I was cursing all the way, why in the h*** the cars weren't moving at all. I felt like honking my car to make them move.

Then, I started to blame everything around me.

Why did I decided to live sooooooooooo far away from my workplace..

Why is everyone wants to drive a car..

Why is Malaysia's public transport so damn lousy.

Why Malaysia has so many stupid drivers who like to take the emergency lane and dengan muka tak malu nak mintak masuk pulak bila emergency lane tu dah habis.

Kenapa polis Malaysia tak saman je semua stupid driver yang suka amik emergency lane yang suka ambil hak orang ni..

Why are these drivers wont stick to their lanes because changing lanes are making the jam even more worse.

Kenapa lah bos suruh pegi miting yang langsung tak memerlukan kehadiran saya di sana yang mana saya hanye melayan perasaan, menulis list2 jemputan kawin and berfikir baju kawin macam mana saya nak pakai mase wedding nanti instead of dengar members of the meeting quarel?

Why, why, why........

And then, bila masuk waktu Maghrib, I ate the kurma which I left in my car for this particular purpose. Nak minum air, sedar yang my water bottle takde. someone must have removed it. I started cursing again. Siapa pulak yang gatal2 bawa keluar botol air aku ni. Geram. Kurma manis tu melekat kat tekak and di kala itu, saya masih berada di Jln Loke Yew. Another 15km to my home sweet home.<

And for no reason at all, I cried. Not only that I crying softly, I was sobbing all the way. Kereta lembab depan tiba2 membuat saya kembali marah. Dahla slow teramat macam kura2, drive kat lane paling kanan then semua kereta potong depan die. Saya yang tengah marah, mencucuk kereta tersebut dari belakang and bila ade peluang, I overtook from left. Saya tau, memang kurang beretika bila overtake belah kiri tapi saya teramat marah semalam.

It was almost 8 and I was still stucked in Jalan Kuching, the forever and ever hectic road. Nape jam sangat ni? Orang2 semua dah start balik kampung ke?

Geram, geram.....

Radio yang dah lame terpadam sebab asyik keluar lagu2 yang same je kembali saya on kan. Tukar radio IKIM. Terdengar bacaan ayat2 suci al-Quran and jiwa kembali tenang.


In the end, I reached home after 8. Sampai2 je di rumah, mama opened the door. Tiba2 aje, saya berkata, "KL ni memang giler"

Mama kata, "Sabar, puasa itu mengajar kite bersabar"

Saya naik atas tukar baju and solat. Then turun makan kueh teow mama yang sangat sedap sampai 2 pinggan. hmmmmm, sedap hingga menjilat jari..

I know I have hurt many people around me. Especially Him.. Kesian dia, sentiasa menjadi mangsa kemarahan saya. Sorrryyyyy.... Saya tak macam ni kan dulu. Lepas raya ni, things should turn back to normal..

I think the jam are turning me into an evil woman.

Vroom, vroom...

Sometimes we hate them..
Sometimes we pity them,
And sometimes we admire them..

The motorbikers..

I hate them when they mencelah-celah masa traffic jam sampai langgar side mirror and never bother to say sorry..
I hate them when they ride slowly in the middle of the lane during bumper to bumper and ruang depan dia tu memang 5 lori 10 roda pun boleh muat..
I hate them when they never check their back lights and remain rosak, we cannot see them during night time..
I hate them when they never signal to change lanes..
I hate them when they honk so aggressively when we are about to change lanes during bumper to bumper as if dia lagi 2inci nak langgar kereta kita, padahal dia honk sebab menggangu progress dia yang sedang speeding di celah2 kereta.

I pity them when their bikes broke down in the middle of no where along the highway and they have to push their bikes to the safest place..
I pity them when they have to shelter themselves under the fly over during thunderstorm..
I pity them when they have to stop by the roadside to wear their raincoats when they see the clouds are turning grey..
I pity them when Mommy, Daddy, 1st sis and 2nd bro ride the same motorbike.. Bahaya tau... Maybe that's the only transport they have and kos naik bas 4 orang lagi mahal dari duit minyak motor..

I admire the MARRIED couple peluk2 while riding the bike to work.. Romantik ;)
I admire the husband help fasten and unfasten the helmet for his wife or child.. Sweet...

And mereka yang konvoi motor balik Kelantan memang selamber minum air bila stop di gas station di bulan puase.. Hahahaha

Ribbit...!

Pernah tak makan gula-gula ni?
Masa saya kecik2 dulu, gula2 ni favourite sekeluarga. Tapi biasa la, papa mana bagi kami makan banyak2.. Paling banyak dapat pun, 2biji je kot. If nak lebih, beli guna $$$ sendiri. Tak kejam lah, cuma tak nak bagi gigi anak2 die rongak..

Tapi dunia dikejutkan dengan berita kehadiran melamine dalam product makanan yang ditambah supaya menunjukkan kandungan protein yang tinggi. Gula2 ni pun detected ade melamine tau. Jutt stop eating this sweet ok..

Untuk satu tempoh masa sejak pindah ke KL tahun 1990an dulu, lama tak makan gula2 ni sebab susah nak dapat and mahal. Tapi masa di DPA hari tu, makan dekat 10 biji kot. Jutt bagi..
Huhuhu...

DPA dah sebulan berlalu, dan saya masih sehat. Hopefully tak de ape2..

Anyway, saya bengang dengan consumers yang salah tengok fon number yang KKM published dalam surat khabar..
Instead of 8883 3503, mereka dial 8883 3603.. Dah la tu, they were a bit rude and takde fon manners. Xde hello terus serang "Saya mau tanya itu apa lagi itu China's ban product"..

And saya yang pada pagi itu tak sempat lagi bace surat khabar terpinga2 sebentar.. Kenapelah dapat call pasal product makanan pulak di Bhg. Perolehan. Kami procure food stuff untuk hospital je. Terus tengok Star Online..
Ni mesti kes orang bace surat khabar tak pakai speck mata. Then later on, I still received "Ape lagi itu China ban products?"

Hmmm.......
