Another working Saturday. It seems that today is a sot sot day. Something seems to be NOT-SO-RIGHT going on.
In office, a miscommunication by my boss almost lead me into 'screwing session' from all 3 parties if I was so not careful with what I have to do after boss gave me 2 assignment of the day.
Good thing I took the pre-caution as I read thru the e-mail and found out that the message was not clear. Only when I checked with 'Tai Lou' in that department, I was fortunate enough to find out that the sessions were not meant for our departments. Imagine if I just go ahead with the assignment without checking back with him. I will sure kena tiao by 'Tai Lou', the staffs in my department, and of course, my boss.
--------------------------------
After work, I accompany my colleague Manjeet a.k.a. Macha to California Fitness at Menara Standard Chartered for trial enquiry.
Two days ago we both enquired about the package and the chinese lady told us story A. As of today, the indian lady and a chinese guy told us story B. This gave us an impression that they didn't provide correct information. BAD BAD BAD.
Next thing is that the sales guy did an explanation about health and fitness to Macha. And as he was talking about getting sleepy after lunch hour, I was discreetly yawning, trying NOT to yawn out so loud like what I normally did in the office.
-------------------------
It's been a while I since meet up my good buddy a.k.a colleague Toby since he has been based in Times Square while I'm at the other building. In the morning he sent me an sms asked me if I'm coming over to Times Square for birthday bash. Well, unfortunately I won't go there for the sake of the bash. Besides, I got work to do though.
Anyway, after the talk at the gym, I went over to Low Yatt to have my lunch first as I was so hungry, thus I ordered my lunch (and I ordered the wrong stuff). Doesn't matter now.
Toby arrived minutes after I arrived at the cafe and we chatted, chatted, chatted, until we make a move to roam around KL malls for window shopping.
While window shopping, we both still chat about work, clothings, technologies and mobile phones. And good thing is, most of the time we chat in Cantonese, a good way to practice and improvise my language apart of Mandarin and my native language Hakka.
We keep roaming around the places till we forgotten all about the time and then we decided to go over to Proton showroom to have a good look at the latest PROTON SAGA.
Auron-Declan's comment: IT WAS REALLY GOOD THIS TIME. I just love the big-mama exterior look; COOL. I just love the interior; SPACIOUS. Of course I did enquire some stuff that I should know about SAGA with the sales person, especially about fuel consumption.
Can anybody tell me if this PROTON SAGA's fuel consumption will be as economic as the Perodua's Myvi/Viva??
---------------------------------
There is something that I dislike about public transportation
Firstly, the inconveniency of the distance, well basically it's something like the location of the station that was placed at the SO-NOT-STRAGETICALLY well.
Next thing is, I was in my line when someone happen to cut cross my line and just go in into the train and I end up can't get in the train. I was like "BLARDYYYYYYYYYYYYYY BODOH SEEEEEEENGGGG PUNYA ORANG". I just beh tahan with people like that.
I think I did mentioned about this before at my previous blog, where I was still standing in my line and there were some kiddos, well, let me rephrase that...THOSE LA LA MUIZ, pushing me away of my line when trying to get in into the train. I was furious with the action so instead of going into the train, I bang her away of the train and I did hear the loud 'OUCH' from her.
Instead of saying sorry to her, I had this heart to tell her "SERVE YOU RIGHT" (Since when Auron-Declan become more evil??...
Just remember one thing about Auron-Declan. Auron-Declan is always a nice and friendly person. But when he was being tolerance-tested until the max level, Auron-Declan can be very dangerous without any notification. Don't ever think to test his tolerance level, or you'll be sorry).
Well, it was an indeed crazy saturday, and am looking forward for my trip back to hometown. Well, exactly next week I won't be in KL, so Bon Voyage to KL and Hola to Kinabalu Fort.
Am looking forward for spend some time with my family, and to do things that I already came up with on Auron-Declan's AGENDA, and of course doing some part time work while back in hometown.
One of my agenda is to spend a Day in Sapi Island, and this time I'm bringing my sister along with me (due to personal reason). Besides, she is very very free enough that I think she can be my photographer, so be prepare for another vain pot photos of Auron Declan.
----------------------------------------
GYM - Remember when I mentioned that my step instructor AJ told me that it's been quite long time she since saw me attend to her class. That time I wanted to 38 with her but then she had her jimuis sitting by her side, so I just put it on hold until the next time when I get a chance to chat with her personally.
Chances is on my side when I attend her class again on Sunday afternoon. After I changed my work out attire, I went down, sit down next to her and start to 38 with her. There are so many things that we been chatting this time, comparing with the time before that, and we both got to know each other more better (I think)
One of the thing that I 38 with her is about the 'incident' I had last month. Basically just told her the reason why I've been NOT attending the class these days. She was shocked to learned that I was being one of the many victim for that incident. I almost wanted to show her my 'wound' but I think it will be too gory for her to see it.
She eventually told me to be more extra careful, somemore, adding on with her point of view towards this case and also shared her stories as well; herself driving a Mercedes while being chased by 2 other cars, and she have to drive to Police Station then the cars dissappeared out of no where. Now that is really scary.
Not this kind of chase car lar
One thing we both agreed is that our country is not a safe country unless the government do something about it, of which recently our PM announced that the crime rate has been increased treumendously until he had ordered the police force and all communities to come up with something to enhance the security around the place; one of the agenda was
TO SET UP CCTV AT ALL PLACES
be it in the malls, carparks, shops, or office...this time it'll be more and beyond expectation (of course no CCTV in public toilet or even hotel toilet or I would rather use my own home's toilet for a pee pee and boom boom)
I think it is extremely a good idea, but I think the best idea is to have police roaming around the place instead of them sitting in their station, doing nothing but either having their donuts and coffee or playing cards or congkak or mahjong.

In the first 10 days after the New Year, fuiyooo, you can never imagine what I had gone thru. Previously I mentioned about one of my friend defriend my good friend (who is also my ex-client) and I'm pissed off with the way how they initiate the defriendship. In fact, friendship come and go, which is quite true and I just don't get it..WHY?
I do came across with friendship and defriendship. Recently I got to know that someone just love my voice when I was on conversation with one of my good friend. In the kawanster, I just send them a good-will message, and the baddest move of all is to give out my number. Surprised to see that there's no reply, I just thought that they were busy. Not until I got to find out that they got so turned off about my action. In my thought, it was just as friendship and never thought of things going further, too bad they think the other way round. Bygone la...I'll just keep things casual with friendships.
At work, well, things get cranky and crazy these days. I've been busy and been doing lots of talking these days. Oh yeah..I think I should also include Kiki as well. We both been crazily doing training sessions for system applications. Yeah..it's system that I'm talking about.
2-3 January 2008; We had training at our HQ office. The Day 1 didn't turn out to be smoothly run as the key for the room filled with the laptops that we are going to use was with my another boss, and so the things got kelam kabut. However, 'THE SHOW MUST GO ON'. While Kiki went over to our original office, I start the session with demonstration on the system and briefly explain some terms. Later in the afternoon we had laptops up and got them to hands on. Day 2, it was ok, and it was like more things came up with feedbacks from them. Now there goes with so much of work, multiply them with tons of it.
4 January 2008; Me and Kiki conduct half day session with the 2nd level and we will conduct the session for the 2nd time someday within this month I hope.
7 January 2008; I arrived at our Original office by 7.25am just to chec on the PC and to get it done before the session. Our System Guy was there around the time that I arrive and there he go, proceed with the work. System were not being too friendly for us, and we just had to start the session with the demonstration again, with this time, I got the trainees to assist me to key-in details as I explained. Oh yeah, the fantastic part of all, while doing the demonstation, there's Electric Bomb Explosion in our office. It was really like a sound of a bombastic feeling.
In the afternoon things became going smoothly that we've got them to hands on the system until the end of the day.
8 January 2008; This was a smoothest day ever. Training went smoothly and lots of feedbacks came up (including with the part where I was being sarcastic...wow...I wonder).
This day was the first day of the year that I went back to gym, attended Nic's Step Class. It's been a while I since attend step class due to the festivals and the incidents. My lower back injury was ok (with scar), and no longer have sexyback. Damm it. I feel so good while doing the steps until I lose focus on the steps and Nic smiled at me..so paiseh. The most jialat one is when it was so heavy rain right after the class, and I went back to my office to get my Giordano umbrella and no matter how well I undercover myself..I'm still wet, especially at my lower leg. My feet are all soaking wet. Wet. Feeling so marshy...eewwwww.
It was indeed a cool night, a good time to sleep and cuddle with my lil snoopy.
9 January 2007 ; The 4th Batch of training begins this day. Thought that things goes smoothly, until when we first switch on the PC, that gave us the sign of biggest problem of the day, resulted us to postpone our training to this Friday. Having my damaged company laptop are still in IT and waiting for my new one to come in, I was so damm bored and felt so 'naked'. So 'empty'. I used to be workaholic in a way that I keep using laptop to do my work. Too bad, some of the work I will have to put on hold due to this factor.
10 January 2007 ; I'M NOW AT THE CURVE STARBUCKS AND ONLINE TO BLOG ALL THIS SOH LAU's stories. Actually am with BL now, extracting some of the songs that he has now and transfer them into my lappy. Now I only want to get songs that are nice to listen until I'm not bored enough to listen.
New Year...Sure lot of people asking me how I celebrate my New Year. Honestly to say, it's boring. Was suppose to meet up my colleague and her friends and celebrate new year eve and day until hours before the party I sms-ed my colleague and told her I can't make it as I wasn't feeling well.
New Year Day, whole morning stayed at home, while a bit later in the morning had brunch with CK nearby my house only. Later in the afternoon, we both went over to 1U for jalan jalan and makan makan. It really a bomb day for me as we have been spending so much on foods. Really. And it's really scary. Now I really have to tighten up my belly.
Our New Year is another interesting year when I started my New Year with busy-ness at work and personal life wise, I got scolded by my good friend just for one action done by another person (thanks to you SG for your stupid action that causes a whole mess..honestly, you are indeed petty, moody, sensitive, ignorant and not sexy at all by doing that)
The wound at my lower back is still not yet recover. Still hurts, especially during the sleep. What a new year.
The year of 2007 will be end in few more hours. At the moment since I'm free, I better have my final blog of the year 2007 with something about this year.
This year was a year filled with ups and downs, whether I like it or not it was there. I had such a wonderful moments to enjoy and it was a also a painful moments to experience. Never thought that this year was the year that really challenge me in physical, mentally and emotionally. All of these has been tested and have make me become who I am.
I thank God for his endless protection towards me, eventhough I had gone thru with the worse case scenario at the recent incident, I am thankful and grateful that I am safe. Thank you Lord Jesus for protecting me always.
I think this is the time where I should list down things that I had gone thru for the year 2007 and what I anticipate for the year 2008 via my New Year Resolution.
Firstly, I would like to share about my Resolution Achievement for the year 2007.
RESOLUTION 2007 1. To join fitness club - I have sign up for California Fitness and I'm happy with the place I work out right now. I have my lil ratattouille in my arm and am continuing to work it out. Result - SUCCESS
2. To reduce weight - There was once I used to be 80kg. The last time I weigh myself before I signed up for gym and it was 73kg. As of 22nd December 2007 when I weigh myself at my friend's place after the Christmas Party, I was 68kg. Result - SUCCESS
3. To have vacation at Bangkok for the year 2007 - As of April 2007 when AirAsia have promotion, I quickly purchased them for the 0 fare seat promo and booked myself for 5d4n Bangkok trip in November 2007. Was suppose to go there with CK, however his plan has changes, and then another friend agree to join me. In early september, I was disturbed and stress out with whatever happen to my surrounding until I have finally made the abnormal decision; TO CANCEL THE TRIP. That is the only way to just cut off all the craps that I have to go thru just because of the vacation. Result - TOTAL FAILURE
4. To have mp3 player - I've always been using my lovely Sony Ericsson W800i for taking pictures, sms and the best part of all, listening to music. As I am a music person, music is a must for me. Having the mobile phone as a music player of course is good, except that they are some bad point of it. It will actually drain the mobile phone's battery until I have to take extra precaution when it become low batt. Therefore, I just told myself that it'll be more better to just get myself a mp3 player itself. So, on with Auron's search for an mp3 player. Been surveying all kind of brands, from the well-known brand until pirated type of version, I finally made my decision and have purchased 'him'. My lovely IPOD NANO 8GB. It cost me a bomb, but it was a worth investment for me as a music person. Result - SUPER SUCCESS
*************************************
During the year of 2007, there are some things that gone beyond my expectations, and here there are :-
1. One of my colleague who we both previously worked in previous company had recommended me to work with her in the new company that she's working for. Despite with the rounds of interview that I have to attend in my career life, it became my turning point of my career perspective when I finally received a call from HR and welcoming me to the new family. After for working with Vads Bhd for 1 years and 9 months, I move over to Umobile, the latest telco company.
Am working as an executive though, however my main job that I actually apply was Quality Assurance Specialist. However, things didn't work that way, but instead I was offered as Trainer, a latest and biggest challenge for me in the career life. There are a lot of things that I have learned. Thank you Tai Kai Jie for guarding me thru. Thank you Kiki for being there for me and let's work our butt up to the max to get training done in excellence. Thank you to Laksh for her neverending help despite that we were in both different job scope (we are still related and still need to work things out together as professionals). Thank you to all my fella colleagues for giving me moral support and encouragement for me to go further with the training.
2. This year was my first time to attend a workshop (was sent by my boss to attend the workshop, together with 3 other colleagues including herself) for 4 days. During the training, it was an eye opener to meet up with the profesionals, those who have been doing training for years. I was priviledged to attend this workshop as this is the time when we all share stories based on their experience at their workplace. By far, this is the first time that I actually enjoy the training (and at the same time, it was a nerve wrecking when we have to do presentation on the 4th day of our training).
On the final day, all of us did the presentation, and so did I, doing the presentation in front of the professor who was our trainer of the workshop, CEOs, Directors, Managers, Experienced Trainers. With their encouragement, I finally did what I had to do. The best thing of all, me and my other partner for our presentation got 2nd runner up for Best Presentation, and so did Kiki and her partner who got 1st Runner up. Through this experience, it brought me up to the next level; the level of brave, confidence, versatile and fun. Thank you Dr Allen, Hugger Gangs and my fella Colleagues. BIG HUGS!
this is part of training..having fun to harmonize our soul
3. Despite with no keyboards or piano at my current place, I still composed songs and it's still ongoing. For now, it just a matter of time when I can get the real baby. Meanwhile, just wait lo
4. Apart of music, I have passion for photography. Not just being a vainpot, but also being appreciate the define art of photography world; in scenery, in environment, in human, in object, anything and everything. People says, a picture that worth a thousand words. It is subjective. It is define as complex. For that, I have my latest resolution for this one.
so far, this is the best photograph of the year
--------------------------------------------
As for the things that had happened to me, here are some of the summary of myself for the year 2007
1. Being inconsistently busy for the impossibles at my previous company and also even for my current company.
2. Travelled back to hometown 3 times a year. 1st time for CNY, 2nd time for Cousin's Wedding and 3rd time for weekend. Many were suprised that I was back as a pianist for my cousin's wedding.
3. First time to attend musical concert after been in KL for 2 years.
4. The year of sexiness, when I finally bought some shirts that can freak people out.
5. On my 3rd year of birthday celebration in KL, this year was the fantastic year with the most numbered of greetings from family, friends, colleagues and relatives via SMS, websites, calls and in person. Bubu has changed my important day of the history from having a lonely birthday to a lovely birthday. Thank you so much Bubu. Muakz
6. I did not tell this to anyone, nor anyone. Turtle came into my life and turtle has been loving and caring for me, been making sure that I'm always doing okay. There are also time when we both quarrel, but basically turtle has been give way to me most of the time, despite that turtle also can get hurt at times with my actions. Turtle, thank you for loving and caring me, and always provide me your shell for me to hide into for comfort whenever I feel depress and down. Thank you for assisting me in all kind of ways. Sorry for the things that I may have been hurting you (all the time) with my silly actions. Thank you so much, appreciate it what you did for me, and all the best of luck for your future.
7. Of all the FFK moments I have gone thru, this year was the worse; and this time it involves money.
8. The first time that I actually went for clubbing with my colleagues and I have great time.
9. Of 3 Christmas that I have gone through, this year was a loveliest one. After Teddy Bear that I got as Valentine's Day gift, SNOOPY became the biggest among all my other plush toys. Hug hug to my SNOOPY
10. This year was the first year that I actually wear clothes that were sooo sexy and gay that people keep looking at me with one kind. Memang sampalau. Haha.
11. For the first time, I actually had a dream about the one that I used to admire with and that depressed me till I shedded tears, trying to figure out why I had such a dream until I read their blog and found out something had happen to the couple.
12. My waist size which was used to be 36 that shrinked to 34 had now shrinked to 32 and still loose. My lil ratattouile on my arm start to grow a bit. Has a bit sign of improvement for build chest but need to work more on it.
13. This year I spend mostly on Starbucks just to collect points and redeem Starbucks Planner. Cool huh..now am broke.
14. When back in hometown during CNY, was mistaken by the local that I'm Korean. At my latest trip at the homecoming in September, I was mistaken, again by the local, that I'm a Singaporean.
15. Last year I composed 6 songs. This year I have composed 9 songs.
16. First time to National Bird Park KL with CK. Saw my favourite birdy; OWL (hoot hoot)
17. From 1st April 2005 until 27th December 2007 I've been in a safe and secured mode staying in Kelana Jaya. On the 28th December marked the first time of the attack with the robber who robbed me and threaten me with knife. I was respected and got scolded for being too brave to fight back.
The timing for this year is totally off. Hari Qurban is today and we are off, company declared a half-day holiday for us on Saturday in conjunction with the partnership with two other big foreign company, Sunday as an off day, and then Christmas on Tuesday. Friday and Monday still go back to work, but with extra nice part is that on Monday it's half day for me without even apply one. :P
Was thinking to go to Singapore this year, but due to odd timing, have to put it off. So this year will celebrate Christmas here. Now, with whom I should celebrate Christmas with?
DAMMm...I just hate it when I start falling sick. Last monday I started with flu..keep coming out with birdnest, and it was so bloody irritating that I have to blow it out in the office. Despite with the early sleep, I had it again, sneezing terribly bad until my nose is so painful to be pinch again.
yeah..it was this bad..my nose is in pain
Today....NOT AGAIN!?!?!?!! For the better purpose, I took MC to prevent myself from spreading the virus to my department...Meanwhile, money fly away to the clinic. Sigh~
Just got back from clinic..doc say it was just flu symptom and told me that many people also got flu as well. Must be due to the weather? He also advised me to off the aircon in my room (well, I already told him earlier that I don't have aircon in my room) and stay away from direct flow of the aircon.
Got the medicines
Above is just an illustration. my current medicine still ok lah
bought myself 5 boxes of tissue to standby for 'production of dumplings'
you may not even want to imagine my situation when you have your favourite dim sums, don't cha?
a big bottle of 100plus (advised by lovely friend MT)
for your information, drinking 100 plus not only help you to quench your thirst after your favourite exercise, it also help you to replenish hydration and minerals that was lose in your body..(do correct me if I'm got the words wrong).
2 Char Siew Pau as my breakfast before I could take the medicines.
I know I have not been update my blog for quite long time, due to what ler...hhmm...I just lazy want to update my blog, I guess. Haha..Anyway, been busy doing my own things, that's all.
Recently I visited friend's friend's blog, and they posted up the video clip. I have seen this singer before, and heard her voice before. She was so cool, and I thought that her voice is very strong for discology type of songs.
In this video clip, it was collaborated with one of the famous DJ in the world and having her to sing is a real pleasure in a dance musico reality. Her video clip indeed was quite creative.
I love the creativity on the make-up and dress, and the only common thing about her is that she loves wearing clothes that can show the 'long-kang'.
As a musician and artist, what I like about this song is the song itself. It describe about something that you encounter if you happen to have it before.
Anyway, the music itself, it's glamourously groovy. Very HOUSE. Very Pumping Up. *and my leg is attempting for stepping up and down..
Those who are into house/dance, hope you enjoy this music :)
warning!@!in this video contains something that may make you pleasureable syok. if you think this video is offensive, just click stop button and move down to read more stories.
Hey...few more days, or perhaps just 2 more weeks prior to Christmas. Few days ago got a call from my favourite 'Puppy Gorgor' (despite the network coverage disruption that make our conversation not smooth). He invited me to attend Christmas gathering at the hotel and the theme colour is white. In my wardrobe I do have some white shirts, but I think I will better get new one; the simple and style yet attractive and sexy.
Will this shirt be ok for me to wear for the party?
It has been about 2 weeks plus and this blog are still outdated with my Malacca trip stories. During these period I do have a lot of encounterments and story to tell to the 'nation'. Due to the time constraint that I have during these days (I wouldn't want to say it out, coz am too tired to specified out), the next of the many posting will be delay..
Meanwhile, what you all can expect is some Hot Stories that I may (and may not) blog about it. Just be a bit patience and I will get back to you with the 1st part of the Hot Stories soon.
Yeah...for those who has my MSN Messenger, as of 3rd October I have put up this words into my MSN title. Few friends of mine now got shocked till they will have to think twice when making an appointment with me. This is what really happen till I have to decide this way.
While I was on my way back to KL from Singapore, good friend of mine text me and asked me if I could meet up for dinner on Wednesday night, as he will be in PJ area for his haircut. Of course I would say yes, and dinner is not a problem. So we set an appointment for dinner on wednesday night. From time to time prior to the dinner, he keep remind me about the dinner, scared that I will ffk. In fact, I don't, coz promise is a promise.
On Wednesday day time, he reminded me again and again as if I'm going to forget about it. Just an hour prior to that, I was on my way back home already, wanted to get my rest before going out for dinner with him when he called me that he has finished his haircut and now on his way to IKEA with his friends for dinner and ask me whether I could meet him up at IKEA.
Meaning to say, he was expecting me to travel all the way to IKEA just to meet him up for less an hour dinner and then go back home. I rejected his request due to reason it was really late for me to go out to that place and then coming back home in less than an hour for dinner.
After that call, I then really pissed off with this kind of action. I just don't like the idea like this. I texted him back and told him 'THIS IS PART OF THE REASON WHY I NEVER LIKE TO CONFIRM AN APPOINTMENT OR MEETING WHEN THINGS ARE NOT REALLY CONFIRM!'. He then replied me an apology sms and hope I don't get mad. I then replied him one last message before I call it a GOODNIGHT. 'PERHAPS YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN WHAT I HAD JUST GONE THRU AND NOW IT HAPPEN TO ME AGAIN IN LESS THAN A WEEK..FOR NOW, I WILL NO LONGER TRUST IN APPOINTMENTS AND CONFIRMATIONS'.
He then proposed to meet up again this saturday night for dinner, of which I have now decided that all plans and decisions are all up to me, whether I want to go or not, IT'S ALL UP TO ME. Despite any confirmations with 100% assurance that it's confirm, I'll decide whether I should go for it or not. Perhaps I have been Mr Nice Guy too long till this thing can happen to me often. NO LONGER APPLICABLE FOR MR NICE GUY!! NOW MR SARCASTIC WILL TAKE OVER THE ROLE!! THAT'S RIGHT...I'M A BEEYATCH
SO FRIENDS, BOOK ME FOR AN APPOINTMENT AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Tips: 1) If you think that you can't make it at time of wanting to make an appointment, it is better not to set up an appointment at all to avoid any disappointment from another party.
2) If I initiate an appointment, usually it's safe, so you may start to relieve yourself.(Disclaimer; this may not happen if there's unexpected event like bad weather, fall sick or overtime at work)
--AFTER EFFECT-- Good friend got back to me and asked me about this Saturday. At first I am free to meet him up for dinner, but since this happens, I have my impromptu plan, of which is my weekend trip in Malacca. This time am looking forward to visit the Jonker Street, friends telling me that the night market there was quite nice, of which I better check it out. In this blog, I guess the keyword here is PRIORITY. You know what I'm saying, don't cha?
I've been working with them for almost 2 years, and it's time for me to move on for better perspective. The last question that were asked by my Operation Director during the exit interview was something of which I answer him with my honesty heart in one word; MEMORIES.
Memories can be sweet, it can be torture, it can be horror as well, and it can be nightmare. It really depends what you have gone thru with it, and it shall remain in your mind always, no matter how hard you tried to get away with it.
When I answer him this, I further explained to the director that it was with my colleague's support, I was motivate to be stronger person. With their motivation, I became an outspoken crazy sarcastic person, and still maintain my nice side of me. With their help and their kind heart, I was brought up every time I fall down. This make me miss them a lot when I had to make the final decision.
From front to back : The Whale; The Starfish; The Turtle
Of course, am excited to move on to the new environment, with great challenges just ahead of me. Prior to that, was counting my moments of my end day before I could move on, until to the final day, it was just a very normal simple farewell.
yeah..my favourite babi
On my final day, my job was only to ensure that work are done and updated. Then the next thing I need to do is to start sweeping off my desk, pack my stuff and ensure that it's totally clean, then time to pass up my ID, the consoles and the locker key to the HR, then start to say goodbye to the people. To the e-mail department, only their TL knows of my departure, but I got her to keep it quiet coz I just don't feel the need of publicizing my departure.
yeah..me and my boss has the intimacy as boss-chut chai..just don't think of scandal
Met up my few agents to say the final message. And of course, prior to my final hours, I wrote them a farewell message. Something unique for me to do (just no more farewell message via e-mail). This time need to give a goodbye with style.
one common thing about me and her. our cheeky cheek!
At 6.01pm, I then have my last walk, step out of the office and it was my freedom of hours for me at that time. And then, I went home.
my clean-O-desk (after packed)
--MOVE IT-- An interesting evening that had happen on me again; this time it involves $$.
Few weeks ago, my god-brother, who was one of the member in this performance, told me about this performance. Seeing that he will be performing with his gangs, I decided to attend which was held at Actor's Studio at Bangsar Shopping Centre. Well, the thing is, it's kinda ridiculous for me to go there alone, which is why I asked another good friend of mine to join me. Of course I asked him whether he wanted to join me or not before I ask my god-bro to proceed to purchase the tix or not.
It was just hours prior I want to leave the company, my god-bro called me up and told me to collect the tix at the counter as he will need to be by the backstage for make up. That time, I contact my friend to remind him about it. Sadly to say, he has totally forgotten all about it and he was in IPOH at that point of time.
That point of time, of course am furious, am upset, am disappointed, am angry..but upon hearing this matter at that point of time, the first thing I did was just calm down, and just told him that I'll find the alternative; by finding other people to replace his seat. But in-avail..been looking through my contacts, and also even asked The Whale if she wanted to join me for the performance. None of them wanted to join me. Too bad for me then, I have then finally make my worse decision, that is to attend the performance ALONE while holding two tickets that cost me RM64. (Yeah..I have to bear the cost for getting an auto-entitlement to join 'FLY-MY-PLANE programme)
Anyway, the performance was great. It features a compositions that has been done by both local and international. I have such a great time (despite attending the performance ALONE), when I tap my feet on the floor and feel the music. Oh yeah..this concert was really strictly for those who really appreciate music, coz non-interest in music will give you a dull night.
After the concert, met up my god-bro for a while to pass him the money tix (on 2 seats when I'm attending it...ALONE) when I also happen to meet up my hometown church member who was also one of the choir member as well. After the whole performance, took cab back home, start to do a bit packing and then went to bed earlier.
--IMPROMPTU TRIP TO SINGAPORE--
Day 1 - Woke up at 7am plus, get changed and make my way to Puduraya, purchase my bus tix, counting down the minutes before our real departure to Singapore. Yeap. I only make last minute decision to visit Singapore as I'm trying to kill my fri-til-sun-doing-nothing-that-relates-with-work-at-all time.
Reaching there by 3pm plus, whereby met up my friend, have lunch and walked around at Causeway Point Woodlands, then headed to the hotel. Yeap. Like I said, it was an impromptu planning that we finally decided to stay in the hotel with reason of convenience to get our ass down to the city.
Rest in the hotel as I've been so tired to have pain ass sitting in the bus for 5 hours plus. Then we had Buffet Steamboat at one of the steam boat restaurant. It cost SGD15 per pax, however the good part about this restaurant was we can dig in as many stuff as we like. And so, we took many varieties of stuff for us to get it cook. What makes this restaurant unique is, not only that they using the original and traditional steamboat pot, they used the electrical one as well (and we used this for our dinner).
What we do enjoy the most is their service. They really offer us their very best level of customer service. They keep asking us if we want this, and want that, and want this...and we politely tell him that it was ok and will call them once needed.
After for those struggling moments for me to munch those foods for the dinner, I finally call it a night dinner as I was over full, and my friend still can eat more by few portions.
Reach at the hotel, nature call gave me a ring, and so I did what I have to do (ahh....si fuk sai).
Bit later of the night, my good friend fetch me out and brought me around all the alleys, roads and shops around Singapore City, and I finally get clearer (night) view on city life. He also brought me over to the pubs at Clarke Quay to explore around the pubs and clubs. Then went back over to Geylang to have supper before go home and start to get doze off.
Day 2 - Went into Vivo City, City Hall, Fullerton, Merlion, St Andrew Church, Clarke Quay and Bourke Quay and Orchard for day time photography sessions and walk around.
Night time my good friend and his partner brought me out for dinner at places I don't know how to call it for Hainan Chicken Rice and set of meals. These couple were very loving and funny.
After dinner, we had a walk around the place, and we then finally took a walk to Espalanade, and they gave me a good tour and information about Espalanade and it's surrounding. Then, again, they brought me over to Clarke Quay at Fashion Bar for a yamcha session and been yelling with each other for being inside the noisy-box.
Day 3 - Woke up super late, then had a quick shopping at Sim Lim Square and went over to Bugis Village for brunch before we took the bus to Causeway Point Woodlands, that cost me 1hour plus to get stuck in a small spacious bus. By the time I reached there, my knee sore.

Anyway, saying goodbye to my friend, then took the bus down to the checkpoint, well, another farewell to Singapore again, then make my way to Larkin Terminal, JHB.
--UNPLEASANT TRIP--
Upon reaching Larkin Terminal, my first objective is to purchase bus ticket back to KL at the earliest time available. Unfortunately, most of the bus were either full or only available at later time. What I was kinda surprised of, the JPJ eventually have post up the ticket's bench mark, whereby tix from JB to KL would actually cost only RM24.
What these cheaters did was they charged us as innocent victim ranging RM35-50. One of them persuade me to go into the bus that gonna cost me RM35. I first have a good look at that bus. Looking at the bus condition, well, I didn't really go into it, was just another rojak bus, so I just paid up and get inside. To my horror, this was even worse than a rojak bus. It was extreme odour-torture and disgusting, even the insects were roaming around the bus. I was like WTF!?!??
Friend in Singapore called me up to make sure that I'm ok in Larkin, and I eventually complained to him about the bus services in JB up to the max. (Yeah..really like pat poh). Oo...just like what I previously mentioned in shout-out...I paid RM35 from JB-KL and this is what I get
1) For a extreme bad bus 2) Being taught to lie to the JPJ authorities in case if they ask us about the bus tix and we should say RM24 instead of the bloody amount that we paid earlier or else we couldn't go home. 3) A very damn long delay (before I bought the tix, they keep mention that they will go off very soon. That time was 3.40pm. After I purchased, end up we only depart from Larking by 5pm. Two words for this bus operator - BLOODY HELL!!
OO..here was the best part. I have standby about RM37 prior for my entry to Singapore. I would assume that bus tix for JB-KL would cost me at RM24/way. As it happen that the bus tix became RM35, I only have RM2.
I didn't drink much water, and I was so starving as well. Reaching at the stopover point at YongPeng, only to find out that I only have RM2 in my wallet and the rest were in SGD notes. And I also search in my pouch and manage to find few coins. Just guess how I spend them up.
A Bottle of Mineral Water and A Red Bean Bun
And I'm still so damn hungry. Sigh~...am tired as well. About to reach home, stop by at the makan place for my late dinner first as I was holding on for too long. Too hungry to wait already.
Reaching home, unpack my stuff and was kinda too late to do laundry already. Then pack some of my stuff for the next day big thing for my life.
The significant of a beach view, and a latest pose done by me, thanks to Rach for her great skill in taking this picture, and thank to myself for editing the picture into the way of portrait.
Was browsing thru at my old blog, of which I no longer in use, somehow, am figuring a way on how to transfer my multiply blog site to another blog. I actually have created new one, on both email and the blogsite account just for the sake to create a reading-friendly blogsite, and I seems to forgotten the password, and to make things worse, I didn't jot down the password and put them in my drawer. Big mistake for me...now...forever I can't use that username unless if I can work out on something.
At the previous blogsite, I blogged about my days during the MAS FAIR 2005. Yeah, it was 2 years back, however, it gave me a lot of memory of what had happen those time, and even today, I can still remember what happen.
During those days of MAS FAIR 05, it was the first time that all travel agents around KK gather together in the Trade Centre, and it was my first time as well to participate in this kind of fair. It was really a big thing for us, as we are not just handling our own customers, but also walk-ins, and i mean ....many people walk-ins into our booth, mostly just for enquiries.
That's right..previously I was working for travel agent company, handling ticketing and hotel reservations the most, and sometimes even visas, of which I least like to do it.
During the 1st Day of the fair, it was super busy, until the system eventually got hang, until all of us were almost chocked to death by being stuffy in a small booth, until to the stage that my office were also busy as well. Fair ends by 10pm, and all of us were very exhausted. But for me, I was exhausted the most as I had something going on in between; having supper with my close friend who also worked in travel agent, sending off my cousins back to UK at the wee hours. And on the next day I have to attend the chinese service at church as I became their pianist for the final sunday. After spending quite some time with the church members, went over to the mall with my 'close godbro' and friend of ours for haircut, then send them home and I had a beauty sleep until 3pm before I prepare myself and get my ass over to the fair centre for my shift. And there, we worked until 10pm as usual.
I also blogged about my cousin's wedding, Fifi. Among all the cousin I have, she was quite a close one to me. I know how their love life started, and then what had happen in between and finally, their marriage. In respect to their privacy, I better not tell you guys about it, but the only thing I can share with you all is that they are now living happily ever after, and have a prince of their life.
auron and the lil prince
One thing good about working in travel agent is not just about travel perks. You get to meet up all kinds of passenger. Nice, Fussy, and of course...BITCH! Whoever are they, I handled them before. I got bombarded by them, and I know how I feel for others as well. It gives me an experienced. At least I know some people are not always nice. But I won't exclude out those nice people though. There are still some people out there who have a very nice heart and nice personality, equivalent that in person they are indeed a nice person.
Anyway....that point of time were also prior to a week before I move over to KL for good. It was so damm rushing for me, as after I left the company, I still have to go for dentist appointment for check up and drilling (ish....damm scary ler).
The final hours when I have to fly off came when it became my 'last goodbye' to some of my friends. Well, the distance between east and west Malaysia are very near. And plus, during these 2 years time, I still come back to KK for more than once, apart of Chinese New Year. In fact, my original plan was only to go back to KK for once in a year. Sometimes it was very tempting to see the cheap flight tickets on air. Anyhow, speaking about the 'last goodbye', it wasn't really a last goodbye, as for now it's seems that I would still go back to hometown whenever possible.
Just that, the only different for my last goodbye is that I left my comfort zone, and moving on to a new challenges, of which I have eventually gone thru, and I know those challenges are just a beginning, more tough challenges ahead. I begin to love the city life, begin to get used to the city life, and eventually being called KL zai instead of KK zai. Probably it's because of the fast-paced environment that got me into moving forward. Like my mum told me the day after I left hometown for good; at home, there's not much of noisiness after I left.
Those moments are always treasure in the album of memories. Meanwhile, whatever happen has happened. Learn from all those incident and take it as an experienced and time to move forward for new challenges ahead, of which I will have them by next month. BIG TIME!
1st Day of Bulan Puasa is here now. My malay collegues whom I usually go out with for breakfast and lunch hour are no longer able to go out with me as they are fasting. From this day onwards, I will only 'tapau' food from outside and have my meals in the pantry room, along with my indian collegue.
Just saw the VIVA again. I'm so into it. It's compact size were indeed cute, just like me. I just like the shape of it. Just for me to drive along anywhere, everywhere. Perhaps my love one could join me in the ride.
Had my 'liang cha' and egg tarts for my lunch. Don't really have the appetite to have big meals. Some more, am super lazy to have my lunch alone at the restaurants or shops. Had it to go.
During my food hunting, I happen to see this:-
Sleep at work?!?? And the best part of all is, this location is in the shop, where every people walked around.
Not just one that I saw, but 2.
I remember the last time I did that as well in the office. There was one time where I only had 3 hours sleep. So the next morning, I was so darn sleepy, to the stage I somehow screw up 1 booking, of which fortunately of me, I manage to get it fix by myself.
Vowed myself to be more alert (despite me lack of sleep), the next time I just have to becareful with myself, making sure that I have enough sleep (actually, I don't have enough sleep though...always tired). Well, sometimes you can bend the rules a bit, just sleep at hidden spots, and most importantly, as long as don't get yourself caught sleeping by the Big Bosses (CEO, Director, Manager etc.)
Get coffee!
Disclaimer : the 2 pictures of a girls sleeping in the shop and over the counter are just a illustration of what I saw this afternoon. Thousand apologies.
Yeap...that's what I said in the title. It was way long overdue since my birthday, but this belated gift am receiving with one good reason; meeting me up in person is the best option rather than having it deliver via post or courier.
Somemore, I didn't know what was the item until the item was showed. OMG...it was wonderful. After my mum's gift, this one is another precious gift that I will make sure I won't lose sight of it, treasure it as my precious gift I could ever had for this year's birthday.
I won't tell you guys about 'that' gift. However, I can only give you one tip. If you happen to see something different in me, then you will know it.

SATDAY
Saturday was a normal weekend for me, as I was accompanying my friend who came to KL for his holiday. At night time there was this hottest hunk get-together session at Sg Wang, and one of my good friend who was in the list among 30 hot studs. Was standing at the 2nd floor's by the backstage section, so whoever contestants am seeing as well based from my view, I'm actually only seeing those studs with black and red singlets and their hair, therefore I can't even recognise which one is my friend.
I messaged him earlier on when I arrived at Sg Wang, however, as he did not message at that point of time, I just have to use common sense; that he must have been switching it to silent mode and left it in the bag.
After the first batch of the contestants introduced themselves, they was fashion show, flashing on guys' casual wear when my friend finally replied my message and ask about my whereabouts. Then I went down to the ground floor and meet him up in person, and chat with him a bit while, and of course, giving him an encouragement that hopefully he can get thru to the next round. Now just finger cross whether he will be one of the top twelve or not.
-------------------------------------------------
Last saturday was suppose to munch something with my friends for dinner/supper when I happen to see something till it gave me a flashback on something that had happened to me previously, and that had upset me a lot, thus I have lost the appetite all the time, all night long.
All I had was just drink; plain water, hot chinese tea, honeydew juice, and even carlsberg beer. Luckily I didn't had tummy ache to consume these mixtures. But I was sad in myself. Just don't ask me why, coz I don't know how to explain about it. Whatever happen has already happened. BYGONE!
Yeap...again..I guess some of you may have got bored with my STEP story. But hey..am sharing my experience and excitement about this class. And again, I felt energetic and sexy everytime I finished the class.
Oh well...I was late by few minutes and by the time I set up the board, it was at the quarter of the first steps. Looks though..not until I keep looking at the instructor's move first, observe her steps and turns, then I slowly follow.
The class was fantastic. Always fantastic for me. I'm feeling more firmer, but still need to work out a lot.
Sunday after the gym class, meet up with my friends for another round of shopping. OO....guess what I bought? Don't know ler :P
I went over to The Face Shop and bought myself a body lotion. In fact, I have always been looking for good one, as long as it's moisterize my body skin as am feeling so damm not nice. Just a matter of the smells and it's friendliness and effectiveness towards my skin.
The salesgirl let me try 4 flavours, and 2 of them I rejected due to the bad smell that totally turned me off. And then after smelling the top 2 flavours, I chosed the one that consider universal and unisexual type of smells, as the other one smells feminine. And there I go shopping (AGAIN!).
Next I went over to GNC. Surveying on the price and also with their products that are related to work out stuff. In fact, it's a supplement shop, and based on my friends recommendation, this shop are recognised with their famous product that are really good and effective towards our body needs in physical health wise. It's a supplement shop for goodness sake.
Oh yeah, the good thing about this GNC was the offer for the VIP member, of which I applied myself as a member. It's kinda reasonable, only RM20 for 2 years membership and then renewable at RM?? for ?year(s). (Didn't ask her though :P) Will buy my supplements from here soon/later.
-------------------------------------------------
After the meet-up-a-while with my friends, at 7pm I have to go off to meet up another one, of which my friend fetch me from Low Yatt and then make our way down to Ikano/Ikea.
We had dinner at the Ikea Restaurant, and I was really really hungry and hoping to have the meatballs. Well, I was shocked to see that there are no more meatballs for meals, but it was substitute with new menus; chicken leg with swede herbs dish. Sounds healthy, unfortunately it was not really tasty. Something is lacking in there. Probably they are still experimenting the ingredients on that food. However, just what I need; protein meat for my dinner, and I was eating that chicken leg (thigh). It was damm big (And I can imagine the chicken must be giants)
After the dinner, we had a lil walk at the furnitures section, and I was still tempting to get myself a bed frame. I think quite soon I'll get it for myself.
------------------------------------------------
Few days ago I just downloaded a remix version album of Kylie Minogue. Of so many songs that I heard, this particularly song had attracted me a lot, and it sounds real dramatic, a bit similar with what I had worked out on my compositions.
As this song was under Kylie Minogue, I did a bit of homework though, by looking for the lyrics of this song 'Finer Feeling'. It sounds nice, cool and define emotional definition that I'm very sure it must have the reason why this song composed and was made it this way.
Just look at this lyrics.
You can't give to me anything I couldn't get for myself I have needs as much as any man And I understand the feelings well
I can still have a true heart with a free mind A good life with a good time
But what is love without the finer feelings It's just sex without the sexual healing Passion dies without some tender meanings It ain't love without the finer feelings
I get passionate just like you But I have a little self-control You just show your selfish attitude Your emotion leaves me cold
(I can still have a true heart) it ain't love (With a free mind) it ain't love (A good life with a good time) feelings
I guess it's true...what is love without the finer feelings. It ain't it without it.
