Swoosh.....
Since last thursday was a public holiday, I took 1st and 4th off.
Time went by so fast. Its so unbelievable.
I came back home on 31st Aug after giving my apt a good round of mopping. Headed home, went to Mid V as you have seen in my last post.
Friday I went to cut my hair, yeah the RM13 one... Disaster as usual.... aii.. nevermind lah
And then in the afternoon went to change the prescription for my glasses. Yup. This IT industry not good for me. Prescription has been increasing every freaking year!!!!!!
And i don't know what happened to my sat and sun and now its monday, and its freaking me out.

Focusing my energy
1) Cut my hair
2) shopping.... - the feeling of needing to just buy buy buy. And the power of credit card.
I still remember for no 1. i have a uni mate who used to tell me, you're going to be bald if you keep going at this rate. ahhahaa. When i reached the US to embark on my Bachelor's degree, my hair was long , below the shoulder blade. When I graduated my hair was just slightly longer than chin length. hahahaa.
For the past 2 months, I can't seem to be able to control myself in buying unnecessary stuff. After buying I feel bad. Sounds very much like impulsive buyer rite? But on the contrary I those who think alot until the stuff get whack off by someone else. I really don't know what happened to me.
I need to curb these habits thats for sure.
I need to stop buying....
I told myself today that I will only shop another new item for myself when I manage to drop at least 1 kg or 2kg. So far my quest has been very unsuccessful.
So i told myself till i at least lose some weight, I shall not buy anymore clothes.. NADA NADAAAAAAAA....
I think i need to focus my energy on something else. So I won't go to shopping mall or think about shopping. Was thinking along the lines of like getting involve in some activity may it be hobby or exercise or something.... any suggestions??
STRESSSSS......

Alamak....
But since this past year or so, I can say that I have started to indulge abit loh.
Today I went to Mid val. Yeah I know what you're thinking, "suicidal". Well with God's help for sure, I managed to get a parking space. Couple of weeks ago, I saw this wallet, really nice, leather one. One of the few leather ones that I saw in Espirit. Most of them are like those man made material which also cost about the same.
When I got to the store, there was a huge crowd. Apparently there they were having some huge sales up to 50%. I found the wallet on one of the racks. GREAT AND ITS 30% off.
I took it to the counter and asked them for a new one. Yeah coz the display one had some scratches on it. Ain't gonna pay 100+ for a scratched one. I waited and waited while the sales person at the counter goes thru drawer by drawer. And then punched into the system, and go back to drawers. I overheard her telling another sales lady there should be like 4 more or something. Then after searching for about 5+ min, she gave up and said, she believes its all sold out and that was the only one.
I had to say I don't want it... :(
I could feel my heart breaking but I ain't gonna pay for something scratched unless its like 70% off. :(((
My luck....
And you know what else, alot of auntie auntie buying espirit lah... farni hor!!!! But they all pay cash one.. all the rich ladies.

Anxiety Attack.
I couldn't sleep last nite, I had an anxiety attack. All kind of stuff going thru my mind but the major concern was the documentation that I hope to get before I go on my mission. But its less than a week, I am not even sure whether I will get them bfore I leave. And to add on to the stress, I haven't even sent the list yet.
At 7am I as at the office already. I quickly go thru my list and then I sent the email to my lead requesting for all the required information/document. Then the whole day went by so fast. i could die. So many things still undone.
And I am on leave till monday. Gosh..I hope everything will go well or else this will be the last of my career.... :(
So stress lahhhhhh...

Safe And Sound
Eventho' it drizzle slightly, I managed to get parking at this place next to the Emb. Walked over and it was a breeze. Just go thru the door, no crowd absolutely. And got the pass and walked right up. Standing in queue. A cute gentleman saw me.. and pointed to me to give my little receipt to the counter. Before that he said, you should sign the back first. I was so shocked such a cutie spoke to me, I just nodded and went to the side table and signed the blady paper and didn't even thank him :( He doesn't even work there, he is was there to collect his visa too.
HAHAHAAA..
Anyways.. passport and visa is all good......
Thank You Lord!!!!!!!
P/S, had my ranking results today.. Good or not ah.....Let me think whether i wanna reveal or not. Never know who's patrolling the blogs.

Harrowing Experience
This is the most harrowing experience, scary scary scary…
Sunday, August 20, 2006
Aiiii
I hardly did anything... And worse part of all I don't feel well. I have been sneezing and my cheek bone hurts... eyes are watery. Gosh I hope this will not lead to another sinus infection. these days, i get weary when i see a slight sign of flu.
well.. thats not actually I wanted to blog about. After the trying really hard to maintain the 3kg i lost while i was sick. I have now gained 2 kgs back. CRAP!
Its so hard to maintain what more lose weight.
I seriously don't know what to do. maybe I should start starving myself? Would that really help?
AIIIII.... blues blues and more blues.
Was suppose to go to BKK for some retail theraphy but that has been shelfed as the person I was suppose to go with has FFK with telling me until I asked her.
I am feeling down being single.. and not having friends to even to on a trip with.. DARN...

Its done...
Today was to be my last appointment for the tooth implant. Yes, the one which cost me a bom.
It was quite painful as I dunno why the gum always wants to grow and cover the cap of the screw. So the dr has to do someting about it and it sure hurt. He kept apologizing which made me feel worse. But.... I am glad its over but it does feel funny tho' maybe coz after not having anything there for more than 6 months, its weird to finally have a tooth there. but it feels flat at the bottom. So I was complaining to my mom that it doesn't feel like the previous crown I had and also the one on my left. Maybe coz i told him that i couldn't grind properly and it felt that one side was higher than the other side of the crown. So he kinda polish it abit.
Anyways.. my mom said.. he is a specialist rite? Are you having doubts on the work of a specialist hehehee.
ok ok lah.. i tahan lah. But i perfectionist leh. beh tahan.. need everything to be proper and nice... darn!!!!!!
The next visit will be 6 mo nths time for him to check whats the condition of the tooth.
Glad its over...

Broadband
But if i didn't have to be on standby, I wouldn't bother as the dial up work just fine.
I didn't want to drive to work in the middle of nite if I get a call for support rite?
Anyways, how do I feel now that I have broadband. Not much difference but only thing is I spent 8 hours in 2 days watching online korean show HAHAHAHA chia lat or what.
Of course I didn't get the unlimited one. I wanted to gauge how much i will use and such.
So I got the one for 60 hours per month. When I went to apply for it, the guy at the counter sorta reminded me that its for 60 hours ONLY. I was like.. can upgrade later on right? he said yeah of course then he added, budget huh.. hehehe. YEAH LAH have to budget man. or else.... if i don't use that much why have unlimited rite?
I got to save for my bag and shoes fetish man.. MUAHAHHAHAHAHAA
PS - I have been avoiding the mall when I can but unfortunately working in the city is kinda hard but I have been a good girl, coming back straight home after work. haha more like no choice aye.. coz i am on standby for 2 weeks straight. I don't want 2 be lugging certain something all over town...

My Take on this...
Hmmm... so, I believe many of you out there has read so many blogs, articles in the newspapers, esp from thos who has ventured far for better education then decided to stay on to where they thot are green pastures, or some who moved away wanting a better life else where. You might also have read those ingrate who were born here and now berate the country and diminishing it to a minute ant.
I fall to the first category but minus the last bit. When I first came back to this country, I did have all the sentiments these people had. I loved the new country which i have spent 3 yrs in. I wished i could stayed on. Everyday since the day i came back and for the longest time as I can recall, I longed to be back there. But 10 years has since passed.... Do I still feel that way? Yes, once a while I get melancholy and i do think about it.
But I also realized that in the past 1 year, I have to terms with myself, and you know what happens now when I read about what people say about this place? Well granted this place is not eutophia... I don't think anywhere will be euthophia. But then I strongly believe that people who longer call this place home has no rights to berate it. You don't go thru what we go thru every day of our lives. You choose to leave ( except those who had to leave due to circumstances - you are forgiven :P) Anyways.... I believe that this country still has things that are good eventho' somethings irks you like mad. But home is where at anytime of the day, you can meet up with your friends, call your parents, drop by their home. Whats life without all that eventho' you have the most beautiful sky line at your backyard? Or the best quality of air? But when you want to go visit your friends, you can't just drop by but instead you have to call them, or drop hints so that they may eventually get the hint and invite you to their house hahaha. I sound like a cynic don't I. Well I am just giving the extreme examples.
But you get my gist.
So maybe its time, we think how to make the best of this situation that God has put us in and stop whining about how bad things are...(yeah I am big whinner myself, but self control has gotten the best of me lately. Hard but I do my best not to fall into but somtimes it fails but sometimes its successful)
I have a coworker who constantly talks about how bad things are, how she doesn't earn enough money... how she would have been much better off in SG,AU or where ever not. She hasn't been overseas before. She did all the tertiary education here. Thats fine. No one is looking down on your bcoz of that. But stop already!!!! Look around you!!!
One day I showed to her there is this man who guides the traffic infront of the hotel near our office. You can see he stands in the hot sun at 12 noon from goodness knows what time till what time. But in the blazing hotsun (dressed in black), he stands there and waits when car comes by he will guide them. Thats his job every day in and out. How much do you think he gets paid? probably a measly 600-800 a month? or less??
So I told her straight on her face!! be Glad you're not him and think about how fortunate you are and not about how you can't afford that DIOR or GUCCI bag. When this person probably have to think 3 times what he can have for lunch/dinner so he can provide for his family and survive till the next pay check.
I SAY INGRATE!!!! START THINKING AND START LOOKING AROUND YOU. YOu are much more fortunate than most out there... eventho you might complain life is better elsewhere. But since you're here make the best out of it , can you not?! Just do that? Its hard, yeah i have been there. But eventually when you come to terms with yourself, you will find that certain sort of peace within you.
Dont' mean to lecture no one.. but thats my 50 cents worth of thoughts...
:P

Things
Couple of things happened. I managed to move to a new seat which is now more secluded and my monitor isn't facing the highway anymore. Which is good rite? Alittle bit further frm my si tow por also. But now I am seating with a person whom I don't even know i can trust. So everyday I have to keep all stuff in my drawer n leave nothing behind. Before I moved to this new place, I actually bless some holy water. and I have a small benedict cross seating on my table. Quite hidden view actually.
Lately I have been feeling kind down again. About what? I can't really put my finger on it.
Due to this depression, I really feel like buying stuff. Like even stuff i don't need but I feel an urge to buy it.
This month I will also be paying off the last 2 payment of my tooth implant. therefore I am gonna be broke for awhile and this month I would have to dig hard into my savings. :P
I wish this blues will stop singing. But it has been a week and it hasn't stopped.
I am going to a foreign land for assignment next month. I am not liking it either. I have to do alot of preparation before than. Its less than 1 month. I am tired. I hate IT!!!!!!! I hate hate hate double hate it!!!!!!!!!
I also hate having arseholes in my team. One who only want to boss people around but know next to jack shit!
Gosh... i am not in the best of moods right now!!!!!
Also I havebeen going to gym 2 weeks in a row now. Yeah FOC gym at the company hahahaa. Not really FOC lah. I am a member of the recreational club mah. So free loh. I pay member fee once a year. Farni thing is, I am more tired than ever. I thot exercise suppose to rejuvenate you rite? Tak tau ler.. apa yg tak kena ini.
AII please keep me in your prayers that things will be brighten up.

Haircut
Since I came back from the States and started working here, I haven't spent more than 15 ringgit on a hair cut!!! YEah usually its just RM13 for my regular cut. Granted that the hair dresser works from home. Home is the office.
But with RM13, one cannot expect perfection. I mean that lady isn't young and hip.. she deals mostly with Aunties lah.. hehehe
Of late I have been ranting to my mom, aiyoh.. so old fashion lah but then its just RM13 rite?? So cannot complain ler.. hahahahhaa.
So.. today I decided to go to this shop! I have been there bfore once!!! that was couple of years ago. Went in, said in hokkien,,, wash and cut. THen the person who washed my hair spoke to me in mandarin.. Sorry lah hor. I can't understand mandarin... maybe just the swear words I know. hahaha. Anyways.. then the lady came over... asked me .. cut? i said yes, showed her the picture.. said I want long layer at the back and side. Then she lifts up my hair.. said in hokkien, your hair very little. I cut shorter at the top ok? I said yeah ok.
She cut cut then wash again, blow dry..... Then finished I looked. Ok lah not bad but not very short leh.. only abut 1.5 in off... THen she said 40 ringgit!!!! WA LAU EH. Already naik harga. The last time i went there it was around 30 ringgit.
But the cut is nice, modern and professional loh.
So do you think i should continue to pay RM13 for a haircut or should i just invest around RM40 for a more professional cut???
Thougts?
Daunting Dinner Experience
Ok I ordered my paper tosai and sat there with my teh o ais limau. Then I saw the cook finished making the paper tosai... and the waiter that took my order was walk about.... and i saw the waiter actually used his right hand and rub his facial hair... I thot he would wash his hands but he didn't. instead he just took the paper tosai and placed it on the plate with the very same right hand.
SHITTTT
When the food was served, I was comtemplating whether to eat or just leave it. If I were to complain, its my words against his words rite? So i said , n evermind just makan. And never will i go back there again. Mind you i have eaten there many times before. I gues yeterday would be my last.
Eventho' I keep telling myself its ok, forget it but the thot keep lingering my mind up to now...
Wanna vomit ler..... Dunno whether I will fall sick.

Small Gathering

Ti Ti Tu Tu
Recently I asked a friend, do you think I am happier now? Then this friend responded by saying... well... I complain less. Hmm.. does complaining less an indication that I am happier :P It could mean that I am just keeping things to myself now. As I know complaining is futile hahahaha.
But once in awhile, have to let out the stim rito? If not, will go crazy....
So am I really happier? Occasionally, more often than not, I still have sleepless nite. Insomia. I wake up , almost evey hour. I have been trying to figure out whats actually worrying me that I can't seem to be able to let go and surrender.
Work wise, still sucks.. when u have a biatch for a boss. the more you do, the more she complains, people who does nothing, she doesn't hassle them, she basically leave them alone. Sometimes it makes me think that she dosn't deserve to be a super. Then again, is anyone deserving enough to be one? Sometimes it comes with seniority.. sometimes it comes with who you rub shoulders with, so you suck up so much over the years.. that when they move, you're stuck to sole of their shoes and they have no choice but lift you up when they walk forward :P hahahhaa. Get my drift ding ding dong dong...
Anyways, I have told myself no matter what she talks behind myback, I know deep down inside I am a person of integrity and of principle. I do whats right. I do not believe in getting "gaji buta". So whatever is given to me, I try to take positively and do my best. If she wants to bitch bitch loh.... I believe she is one element in my inability to sleep well. And worse of all, she is also a christian. So when i tell my mom about this, she always says, its not about the religion but the person..... Aiii..
Biatch..... i have live with it for now.. and pray that if I am nice enough, when I request for a change of role, I will get it.... *pray pray pray hard*
Anyways, recently I have been pretty stressed up.. the invasion of bugs is killing me. ok i looked carefully and its not white ants......coz its not lutsinar....Everyday , the first thing i dowhen i get home from work is vacuum the bloodeee wall and floor and the furniture.. YET when i wake up in the morn,, its there.. Sometimes within hours some new babies are back on the WALL.. WHAT THE F? is that all they do... reproduction within seconds??? CISSSSSSSSS
DETTOL....... please vanguish them!!!!!!

Beh Tahan
1) The issue about In'national sch.
- Firstly instead of trying to to cover up that the govt sch sucks or has diminished in standards, they just open up int sch as an option for the rakyat. But really tho' there are some rich people who can afford it but there are still many who are not rich. Just getting by. It really disappoints me. Instead of trying to pass the bug, they should look at the issue more seriously.
2) For years the issue of seats in the local university has been looming over our heads.
Hmm.. instead of taking in more local ppl, they have now open the doors for foreign applications. Does it make sense? Many who can't even get into the local university. I really cannot comprehend it man.
3) Kids/Teens/Fresh Grads/Etc who has never been overseas but speak with a distinct accent. Some hasn't even step foot abroad. Yeah those with fako americano accent and english accent. You know I have been meaning to write about this but I forgot until yesterday where there was an article just about this in the local papers. It started of by saying, he saw this two young doe speaking to each other one with distinct english accent and the other with american accent. Wanna bes dudes. Anyways.. it start by saying Doe1 says. I had a bit of sucky. Having a sucky once in a while is good. The write said he was shocked coz at this young age they are already exposed to XXX stuff. Turned out at the end those kiddos meant to say SAKE!!!!!!! hahahahhaa. Ok heres the one i heard for myself. We have this intern who speaks with american accent. And mind you very LC also. When she said she is an intern at our company, and she just started, I asked, so where are you studying. I expected something like.. Uni of balbalba in the US. But the answer that I got was.... UITM . HUH? Sot gah.. i bet she hasn't even set foot over the sea.... Gosh come on lah.. Just speak good english would do... esp when you haven't been overseas.... Beh tahan!
Anyways... i don't look down on those ppl who never had the chance to go abroad to study or whatever. But I just hate ppl who put on the accent... EWWW.. yeah I agree I do get into my american accent when I get excited. But that has toned down alot already. Used to be much worse when I first got back. But then again, I spent 3 years there, their lingo , their culture does gets rubbed on to me.....
Wanna bees just kills me.

Updates
Somethings has happened along the way.
1) I got sicker after I wrote the post. Had to resort to seeing a specialist - On my own expense. Its a long story but I shall not bore you with details. Lets just say that the company gives you benefits but half heartedly. They impose so much red tape till the end of the day, you will just decide that its easier to just not tab on the benefits.
2) Start 21st week I will be rota again. Its been a year+ since I was ever on call. And being on call for a product that I don't even know, its gonna be like scary. So please people , pray for me.
3) I went to Taman Negara whilst I was still sick in the beginning of May and then to Singapore just last weekend. Had a heaven time shopping in SG. couldn't get enough of buying shoes. hahaha. Wished I could buy more things. I went on the nite train.... but the custom lady very scary... dig dig dig.. wor... thank God only managed to dig 2 pair of shoes out. I should have gone to the male custom officer. My friend just unzip her bag.. and that guy didn't even touch nothing. Just ask her to zip back and go. Damnation.
4) I lost another 1 kg due to insufficient of sleep and the bloody bad sinus infection. This is the second time in 3 years, I am struck by this infection. Let me tell you, its no fun. Its the most horrible time you can ever have. Each time you lie down you will cough like mad.. till your chest burns and hurts. Your nose gets to clogged up, that you have breathe with your mouth but your mouth gets to dry that it aggrivates the cough. Sigh!!!!!!
5) While I was in SG, went for mass at the Good Shepard Cathedral. Saw the most good looking guy.. i have ever come across but too bad... married leh with 2 kids.... but looks damn young. Probably filipino or indonesian...... damn nice eyessssssssssssss... eye lashes melentik leh.
6) My good friend in AU, gave birth to her first child - baby girl - Phoebe Michelle Lee... on May 27th... Congrats G!!!!!!!!!
I guess thats all the boring updates I have.
