Hey peeps,

I've just set up a new blog. Won't continue to write here in this blog though. Do drop by at this new blog of mine anytime. You don't need to drop me a comment or anything. So, no pressure =) But, should you think that I can improve further, then yeap, let me know. I'm open for discussion.

Here's my new blog add :

Will see you guys there. Have a great week ahead!

Keeping Track

2010-01-25T11:19:00.007+08:00

Okie.

I've listed eight (8) resolutions in my previous post. Now, let's see if I follow every one of them, shall we?

Point 1 : Diligently wash my face every morning and night. (at least twice a day)

----> Yeap, I did and still do. Now my face nicer liao. Pores also getting smaller. =) But gotta admit that I still miss out sometimes. *blush*

Point 2 : Drink fruit juice (cocktail more like it) once a day, twice if I can.

----> Check. Now I add fresh milk and plain yoghurt instead of water.

Point 3 : To be more presentable to others, now that my hair's all nicely done. =)

----> This one ar. Ummm.... sometimes only. Like if I go out just to tapao, I don't have to doll up, right?

Point 4 : To watch what I eat, as I easily pile up the pounds. =/

----> CHECK!!! Hehe. And I've lost some pounds.

Point 5 : To be more confident of myself and widen my circle of friends.

----> This is something that I'm still struggling to instill in me.

Point 6 : To be more aggressive at work and push myself to the limit.

----> Ahh.... Still struggling.

Point 7 : To try to attend church at least twice a month and pray at least once a day.

----> Yeap, I'm now beginning to be active in church, mix more with church friends, etc. And learn to pray, though at times, I find it hard to follow always. I hope that I don't become like some hypocrites who diligently attended church yet act like shit. I actually found a very good verse on this kinda people. Will post it up sometime.

Point 8 : To tithe

----> I just did!! Quite a lot of hesitation there, but I finally managed to tithe. =)

Hope to continue to keep up with this. But, I'm gonna take it slow and steady.

Happy 2010!!

2010-01-05T09:23:00.007+08:00

A Happy New Year!!!!

WHooop!!! Annnnnnnnnnndd a HAPPY. NEW. DECADE!!! *pull cracker*

I know I know. I'm late. But hey, better late than never right? Well, I have a few resolutions up my sleeve. Some are new resolutions, some are the old ones which I wasn't able to fulfill them the previous years *phaiseh phaiseh*. And I'm now gonna list down my resolutions here one by one. So, these few people can keep check on me; namely my sister, and a few friends whom I really treasure and hold dear to me.

*taking a deep breath*

So, here goes :-

Diligently wash my face every morning and night. (at least twice a day)
Drink fruit juice (cocktail more like it) once a day, twice if I can.
To be more presentable to others, now that my hair's all nicely done. =)
To watch what I eat, as I easily pile up the pounds. =/
To be more confident of myself and widen my circle of friends.
To be more aggressive at work and push myself to the limit.
To try to attend church at least twice a month and pray at least once a day.
To tithe.

I don't want to make so many resolutions. No point making so many when I can't even keep one. I think this much will do. And I have one year to do all these.

Let me know if you see any changes in me ya. =)

Smartarse

2009-12-14T15:28:00.009+08:00

Some people can REALLY be a jack-ass. My god. *roll eyes*. If simple conversations as such couldn't be interpreted without any misconception, then I really don't know what to say. Want to be a smart aleck, be my guest. I'm not gonna be bothered by it at all.

Hence, please shed off the word "best friend". Losing you one person is not gonna be a big loss to me. I have other friends myself too. It's not that I cannot live without you. Puh-leseeee.

Oh, and by the way, don't criticise the other person whom you alleged I "dragged" along as the person who was with you wasn't any better. It wasn't only me who noticed his rude and indifferent behaviour towards us, but, the other two who were with me, noticed it too. So, don't try to point out the speck of dust in my eye, when you have a huge plank in yours. Hypocrite!

I wonder something. Two of your (as you claimed) very good friends, had turned their backs on you. One whom you knew back when you were toddlers. Maybe, it wasn't our faults but yours. I won't say that it's not entirely your fault, but perhaps, you have bigger fault than us. Why is it that we get along fine with other groups of friends, but you?

You can say what you want in your blog, for I won't be reading your posts anymore from now on. I've decided not to read them ever since your post on friendship surfaced. Besides, why would I want to read posts posted by someone who lied to me just to convinced him/herself that he/she is being loved by the opposite sex? How degrading! How shameful!

If you happened to chance upon this post, and if you wanna misconstrue it they way you did with our conversation earlier, then be my guest. Like my sister said, no point being friends with such person. Go to church, listen to sermons, writing bible verses for others, yet none I see is reflected from within you. And hence, I'm gonna heed her advice.

Ciao.

A Big Change Is Very Much Needed

2009-12-05T10:40:00.011+08:00

I think my social life sucks big time. Actually, it has been this bad ever since I could remember. It's just that, every time this feeling crops up, I brushed it aside nonchalantly. Refusing to acknowledge that yes, my social life is going down the dumps. After probing my inner self further (not that it needs that much of a probe anyway), I realized that the condition I'm in right now, is partly my fault. Well, most of it.

One of the main reasons is due to the fact that I'm on the heavier side (always have been), my self-confidence is always at the lower end. Hence, I refuse to make new friends. Refusing to get to know people and such. Preferring to lock myself at home and not worry bout a single thing (except my mom's constant nagging). If I were to make new friends, I'd immediately put up a facade, suppressing everything there is to suppress within me. I am constantly living in my sister's shadow. Merely existing.

Lately, I realized that this low self-esteem is taking its toll on my performance at work too. I always don't seem to think that I'm able to finish up a task properly, a very different me from back when I was a student in uni. Neither do I think that I'm qualified nor capable to handle a certain project all on my own.

..............

*cocking head to one side*

You know, having it written out like this does make it sound pathetic and pitiful. And, it's bad. This. is. really. bad. I've been battling low self-confidence for years. Sad to say, try as hard as I could, I have never succeeded in escaping from its grasp after all these years.

I really need a change. And I gotta start somewhere.

Broke!

2009-12-03T11:07:00.003+08:00

I'm seriously broke! And I don't even know where my money went. It's only the start of the month and I'm already on a tight budget.

So, to help me earn a little more income, I went hunting for part-time jobs, only to find that a lot of them are scams (which requires you to PAY first), and also a lot of them involve MLM. Haih.. How la... If this continues, I think I'm gonna stock my kitchen with cookies and cookies and moreeeee cookies. Maggie mee would be nice too, but I don't want to lose hair. So, I opt for cookies. Healthier too.

How ar. Am also going back for Christmas. Sure have to take mama and papa out for a nice Christmas dinner. Super broke. Gonna find my sister. Ask her pay me back her hutang lapuk and also ask her share share in this Christmas dinner. She's also their daughter right? Right? *GRIN*

Hopefully the rumours that there will be a year end bonus and a pay increment are true! Oh, I just can't wait!!!

P/S : If I get a month's bonus and a pay increment, I'm gonna keep it from my sis. She's living off me like a parasite!

Rant

2009-11-30T16:28:00.005+08:00

For the past few days, I was locked in an argument with a guy. Well, if you mull over it, I think a lot of people would say that it's kinda trivial. Anyway, the question of whether it is or not is not for discussion here.

What I'm trying to highlight is how ugly things ended up. All down to him for repeating our conversations to his friend. However, he tweaked a little bit here and a little bit there, quite unintentionally I suppose. Hence, a different story is told. I guessed that he misinterpreted what I wrote. But, the funny thing is, I found out that I don't blame him at all. I did complain to my sis though. So, I think that's how my anger dissipated; I channelled my anger qi to my sis. Hahaha.

In his replies, he blatantly put the blame on me on many issues, which I think is kinda unfair. Some of those issues mentioned, are partly his. Haihhh... it's hard for me to explain here. And I don't want to pin-point anyone either. Let's just let sleeping dogs lie, shall we?

Whatever damages that have been done, I'll just let it be. No point patching up. Lest it becomes even worse. Now, we don't communicate anymore (not that we did in the first place). But, surprisingly, this is something that I don't regret.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My bus back from Penang to KL took a freaking 7 HOURS!! And I almost got left stranded at the LRT stations when those inconsiderate, blood-sucker (no Twilight here), psychotic, idiotic taxi drivers refused to fetch my sis and I using the meter. And all of our friends were still at their kampong.

*sigh*

More on that later. Signing off for now. Adios~

Meagre Savings Gone...T_T

2009-11-02T21:53:00.005+08:00

I went upstairs to my apartment after work, trying to catch a few winks before picking my sister up. About 630 pm, she called, asking me to pick her up from the LRT station. Kesian. I have to chauffeur her to and from work. Not easy ok. If late kena sounding somemore.

Anyway, back to the topic. It was raining cats and dogs. I was drenched by the time I got into my car. Didn't know why I parked so far also.

When I shifted into reverse gear, and wanted to move out of the parking lot, I realized something amiss. The steering wheel was super tight. Really. It's as though someone had put and invisible lock to the steering wheel. My first thought was, punctured tires.

I got out of the car and checked. All four tires were indeed in good condition. Puzzled, I tried again. Fruitless. I rang my sis asking her to take the cab. She refused. To cut the long story short, I called my mom up and told her everything. And then borrowed my supervisor's car. Got lost at the carpark. Took me 30 minutes to find the exit (He parked his car at the apartment's carpark). Got stuck in the heavy jam and finally reached the LRT some 20 minutes later.

After buying dinner, got back to my car and tried again. Nothing's changed. My mom called and said that most probably the steering wheel pipe leaked. Great. I'm super broke this month and now I have to fork out goodness knows how much for the repair. Tomorrow I shall have to call the foreman and have him look at my car.

Ishhh....anyone to sponsor me meals this month?? Come to think of it, it's a good way to go on a diet, no?? Gonna ask my sis to fork out half of it. After all, she uses the car too...

Father Figurine

2009-10-23T07:06:00.002+08:00

A colleague of mine had left to work overseas. And now I'm all alone here. I'm so not used to it. Before this, he was here to look after me, to ensure that I was ok, taking me out for breakfast and lunch and dinner. Not only me, he took care of my sister as well. Things get done easily with him around, as I'm still not very familiar with the roads around here (at least way much better than my sis).

Now, with him so far away, the only way I could keep in touch with him is via Facebook, email or Skype. But, there are limitations. One, the time difference is six hours. So, when it's 12 pm here, it's 6 am there the same day. It's not possible to chat in the middle of the night. We need to work the next day. Second, the internet connection over at his place sucks big time to the extend that it puts chipsmore to shame. Get what I mean? Third, he's computer illiterate. I sent him an email, he replied me, yes. But, he didn't write anything. He just clicked the button reply and then send. -__-" And he flooded my inbox with the same email. -______-" Hahaha. I have no idea how many times he clicked reply and send.

Sighhhhh. I'm all on my own now.

Moving "House"

2009-09-18T10:20:00.004+08:00

Hi folks,

I'm gonna shut down this blog. As I browse through my previous posts, I noticed that the contents were a little too cheesy for my liking. Ahahaha...And I'm moving to another blog...The url ermmm.....Well, I haven't actually figured out the new name of my new blog. Will post it up here once I've created one. Ehehehe..

That's all, folks. Have a nice day. xoxoxoxoxoxo.

Yours truly,
3llex ting. :)))

Up To You La

2009-09-11T11:31:00.003+08:00

Recently, everyone around me took to telling me this; up to you la. It kinda gimme the impression that I'm floating aimlessly through life. And, that I make extremely bad decisions till it will make a huge dent in my life. And that people around me have given up hope on me. And that I'm useless. T__T

Come on la people. Don't la like that. I still need all the support and love and care and kindness and pampering and the hugs and kisses. Haha. Geli, I know.

All in all, I still need guidance. So, don't abandon me. xoxoxo

Too Wordy

2009-09-10T15:00:00.006+08:00

me : Eh, have you read my blog? I've just posted something new. I said pity bing bing cannot come teman you at KL. Wuahahahaha.

my sis : You don't let me put your blog in my blogroll. How la am I supposed to know if you've posted up something new.

me : Cannot put.

my sis : Besides, your blog very wordy la.. Lazy want to read. Put la some pics.

me : T__T

Don't want to blog liao.

Hygiene Not Prioritized

2009-09-10T14:06:00.006+08:00

Some people seriously need a heavy ticking off. For example, this lady sitting at a table in front of me. I was having my breakfast when this lady, happily waltz into the coffee shop.... WITH A DOG IN HER ARMS!!!

Hello, you're in an eatery. Not a pet shop or some kind of dog hotel. Some more happily cuddled and placed the dog on a chair. Woman, I know it's cute. But, this just isn't the right place to bring it in.

And everyone's wondering why we get all kinds of funny diseases.

P/S : Later only I upload the pictures. Lazy.

Oppression

2009-09-09T16:58:00.003+08:00

I'm just so tired. Don't feel like working anymore as I now face a horrible, terrible, an evil-beyond-imagination, compassion-less, narcissistic manager. And yes, a lot of us are being oppressed. I miss my former manager. What with my audit coming, and with this current manager, it's no wonder that I have nightmares every single night. Even during the day also. Day-mare. If there's even such a word.

I just can't wait to be pulled over to another project. Free from this manager's evil, iron grasp. What bothers me is this; Keluar mulut buaya, masuk mulut harimau (I can't phrase it properly, having not used this Malay proverb for goodness knows how long. But, you guys know what it means la).

Somebody help me. T_T

Learn To Appreciate

2009-09-04T14:49:00.003+08:00

On the 1st day of September this year, my dad went to a specialist to have his lumps looked at. Yes, you heard that right. Lumps. He has lumps somewhere above his right collar bone. The specialist told him that he needed to undergo an ultrascan to determine what those lumps were. Even the specialist dare not give any assurances to my dad that everything will be alright. He was told to wait for tomorrow's report. When my dad called me up, I could tell that he was holding back tears and trying to be brave. I myself nearly cried.

The whole day, I could do nothing much. I tried concentrating on other matters, no matter how inconsequential those matters were, like staring at a spider spinning web at the corner of my table, I tried giving my utmost attention to them. But, to no avail. Horrid, vivid thoughts ran wild across my mind. I thought and feared the worst. Tried squashing and chasing those thoughts away, but it kept coming back.

At night, talked to my parents on the phone. I was crying. Literally. It's just that when I talked, I tried to sound normal, when in actual fact, I was tearing. My sister on the other hand, brawled and howled when she talked to my dad, which made him even sadder. -___-" I slept badly that night, fearing what I would be told the next day.

At about 3 pm, my dad called. I freaked out. I panicked. Part of me didn't want to pick up the phone, fearing what I would hear. Another part of me wanted to know the outcome. Holding my breath, I answered. My dad was silent on the other end. I thought gone case liao. But, he told me it was nothing serious. And I started breathing again. Apparently, those lumps were goiters. He still had to have them removed because there's a small chance that those lumps are malignant. But, this means, he has to have his thyroid glands removed as well. At least, to me, it's better to have his glands removed than to suffer from something even more serious and deadly.

I seriously thank god for this news. He took my prayers seriously. Though I'm not one who prays everyday, he overlooked that sin I made, and answered my prayers. Now, my dad's happy, I'm happy, my whole family's happy.

Though I appreciate my parents a lot, I now appreciate them even more.

Selamat Hari Raya

2009-09-04T14:17:00.003+08:00

Haih...Super lazy to blog. Am away from the blogging world for quite a long while already. Busy with stuff. Audit coming arrr..... But now, I'm back. Not by will, but kena paksa. *long sighhhhhhh*

Anyway, Raya is like, two weeks away. And we have a long break. So, I'm gonna be backkkkkk *pull cracker* Just for five days. But, minus the day I arrive and depart, only three days nia. At least it's something. My mom has begun to wonder why I haven't been back for so long. The last time I went back was in May. So, she kinda conclude or rather accuse that I'm up to something. Well, that's my mom. Always suspicious. Hahahaha.

And this time, when I told her that I'm going back, she and my dad sorta went nuts with joy and happiness. OK OK OK, exaggerating. But, nonetheless, you can tell that they're very happy that my sister and I will be back for a few days and not just for the weekend. Too bad for my sis, her Bing Bing cannot come teman her in KL for she will also be back in Penang. *evil cackle*

Another even better news is, after this Raya break, I'll be back for an even longer break two weeks later. Am looking forward to that. :)))))))))

Bosom Buddies~~

2009-08-14T16:41:00.003+08:00

I just want to announce it out loud here that I appreciate my close friends. All of them. I try to make an effort to meet up with them whenever I'm back in Penang for the holidays. One of my close friends went missing for six or seven years. Only reappear now. Bodoh betul that pig!! But I love her most. For she's so like me in person. Hahaha. Same personality. Same everything. The only difference is, I'm prettier. Hahahahaha. Don't jealous, pink piggie! Just embrace the facts! Hahaha. Another thing is, she makes me laugh like crazy in front of the comp. Sometimes I laughed so hard till my colleagues stared at me. *shy shy*

But, seriously. I love all of you. Both guys and girls. Cause you always turn my frown the other way round and always make the sun shine brighter. Hehehehehe. Love you guys to bits!!!! Muahhhhhh!!

And The Best Place To Go Is......???

2009-07-30T16:41:00.006+08:00

I wanna go on a vacation. I looked like I'm seriously in dire need of one. Any suggestions, anyone?? Anywhere nice, interesting, educational, fun, breath-taking, with a big WOW factor, and most importantly, cheap!! Ok la. Maybe not so cheap la. But, reasonable. OK??

But, please. Don't nobody ever suggest Singapore!!!

A Much Too Heavy Blow In The Head

2009-07-30T10:32:00.003+08:00

Yes, it is. Some more received it at such early hours of the day. And now, how I wish that I hadn't stumbled upon any of this. All spurned by the kaypo chi-ness!!! And the curiosity!! And I hate the fact that all of my suspicions are always true. Which is another blow. Double blow!!

I think I better sign off now. I'm going to tear soon *grabs a thick wad of tissue paper*

Ellex.....Or No Ellex??

2009-07-27T15:26:00.006+08:00

All this while I thought that my Christian name sounded extremely boyish, and weird. I grew up with people spelling or pronouncing my name wrongly. To date, there are still a few who couldn't even pronounce it properly. Either that, or they would give me a frown whenever I introduce myself. A frown that told me aloud that my name just didn't sound right. At least, not for a lady *ahem ahem*. And never once was I not entertained or amused whenever I see their eyebrows creased trying to apprehend the complication behind it all. *collapsed in fits of giggles*

Hence, I'm now contemplating to shed my first name and just go by my chinese name, Mei Teng. At least it sounds girly girly, don't you think? Hmmm.... You know, maybe I should.

P/S : I have people telling me that I'm no lady. I strongly suspect that my boyish name has everything to do with my character and speech.

The Never Ending Audit

2009-07-23T11:04:00.002+08:00

Audit coming again. End of September. And my table's a huge mess. HUGE x 100, 000 mess. Get the magnitude of my problem now??? I'm so dead. I'm fried. I'm barbecue-ed. I'm roasted. I'm..........whatever.

You know what this means? It means that I have to camp at the office again. T_T

Ranting Post

2009-07-15T09:43:00.003+08:00

Some people can be damn hard-headed and want things to go their own way. And they're proud of it. Go church and pray, yet with this kinda attitude????? Hate to break it to you but I am one stubborn person too, though I'm not proud of it. You don't like it, not my problem. I won't be unnerved by it. You don't like it, you leave!!

And I don't give a damn bout it.

Blur Blur

2009-07-13T11:50:00.005+08:00

Was doing my work in the Excel sheet. It was tedious, not to say mind-numbing. And my vision definitely went from good to bad to worse after having to stare at the screen for hours. (If you were to spot me with glasses next time, you know why!). Finally, after having completed my work, I closed the other Excel spreadsheet, only to close the worksheet that I was working on the whole morning!!! And I, dengan blur-nya, clicked on No when asked to save. Whole morning's work gone!!! T___T

And now, I have to start from scratch again, with all the complicated equations and formulas that I have to key in allllllll over again. Blame it on the lack of sleep.

Speeding Ticket....AGAIN!!

2009-07-13T11:16:00.003+08:00

I got another ticket for speeding. For rushing all the way back from PJ (HQ) to my site office. Nice. Very nice. I'm seriously gonna start swearing and cursing my head off. And after working at site for a good whole year, I know a handful of very powerful vocabularies, though I've yet to use it. But, I'm not going to say anything here. My lips are sealed.

Now, I'm really really gonna consider driving at only 50 km/h. That should please all these law enforces. *grumpy*

Down With Flu

2009-06-26T17:03:00.003+08:00

I'm down with flu. IT'S ONLY FLU. No sore throat, no fever. Only flu. And runny nose. And yet, everyone in the office is accusing me of getting infected with the A(H1N1) virus.

...............

CHOI CHOI CHOI!!!! It's only flu la people!! Ishhhh-ness.....

Sleeping On The Cold Hard Floor

2009-06-25T15:50:00.003+08:00

Was late for work yesterday. Hence hurriedly got out of the house and sped off to the office. Pretty sure that I've closed all windows.

However, when I came back, the first thing I saw was the living room windows opened and the whole floor and table wet. Screaming out of frustration, I headed to the bathroom to get the mop and pail and got to work.

Half an hour later, I unlocked the door to my room, only to find one window opened, and my bed looked as though a kid can swim in it. I looked at the condition of my room, forlorn. Dead tired, yet had to clean it up. Otherwise I didn't have anywhere else to sleep.

An hour later, all done. Bedspread and pillow case in the pail waiting to be washed, pillow and mattress hung outside to dry. After shower, I proceeded to sleep on the floor, with a widespread of cloth as my 'mattress' and with my bags as my pillow. Lucky thing my blanket was far away from the window. Hence, it survived. Without my blanket, I wouldn't be able to sleep at all.

It was not a good experience at all sleeping on the floor. In the middle of the night, I woke up shivering. Tried my hardest to get back to sleep because tomorrow had to work, but failed. No choice, scooped up my blanket and ran outside to the living room and slept on the couch. Not comfortable, but at least it's something. And it's much much better than sleeping on the cold hard floor.

The next time, I'm so gonna make sure that my windows are securely fastened before I leave my room. I won't want to sleep on the floor ever again!

The Most Strategic Place In The Office

2009-06-25T11:21:00.006+08:00

All of the desks in my office are placed in such a way where you sit with your back facing the door. All except one; which is James' place. My old place. Let me show you how strategic it is. It's so strategic that if you were to watch porn on the comp when someone walks in, you will still have the time to close it. This is the entrance into my office.

And this is the view of James' place from the entrance. Which was my place before I moved to a new one.

And from his place, you can get a very good view of the people traffic.

So, like I said. Strategic, huh? Haih....regret changing place with him. Otherwise I can do all sorts of nonsense and won't get caught red handed. And now James don't want to change with meee..... T__T

A Table To Call My Own

2009-06-23T10:59:00.004+08:00

My senior engineer has already left for Abu Dhabi. Hence, one staff short. In other words, workload increases! Buttttttt, looking at the brighter side, I now have a place of my own!!! In case you guys were wondering, all this while, in the one year that I've worked, I shared a table with James. But, most of the time, I dominate the table. Wahahaha.

So, now, with my senior engineer gone, I now sit at his place, and call it my very own~~ So, I set a password that no one but I know. But, this morning come to work liao sudah kena sound kao kao by James, for setting the password and not letting anyone know. T___T. Because he wants to use this comp but it's password protected. Hahahaha. I'm going to give my password to only one guy and made him swear not to spread to the whole office. I refused to give it to James. *evil laughter* Syok.

Finally, after one year's worth of bickering and cat fight with James, I managed to secure myself a place, where he cannot come and kacau me. ^^

P/S: But, here is James now, waiting to use a program that no other computer but this has. Haihhhh. And I thought I'm finally freed from his grasp!!! GRRRRR!!!

Cupid, Where Art Thou, Oh Cupid?

2009-06-18T09:41:00.004+08:00

I don't know if it's the season of love. Friends all around me are breaking up. In only a month, I've come to known of four couples breaking up. All of them are close friends of mine. One broke up because his girl went off with another guy. Another because his girl wants to build up her career. And then, another guy friend called off his relationship because he's fallen in love with another girl. Whilst this other guy, his fiancee just doesn't seem to want to continue on with him any longer. And, yesterday night, another bosom friend just, according to her, "pulled the plug", with a guy friend whom she loved. A guy whom she only REALLY know for few months. Bit silly really.

Cupid oh Cupid, where are you?? Everyone around me is falling out of love. Please rekindle their dying ambers.

Compound

2009-06-18T09:12:00.004+08:00

This morning, as I was walking to my car, I saw a paper sticking onto the windshield of every car. One thing struck me; compound tickets. Crap! I rushed to my car, to see the same blue paper sticking onto my windscreen. @*%!^#*

I took the paper and saw that it was issued at 2.21 am!! I have a lot of things to say, but I'd rather not put them in words here, lest I get hauled to court. PEOPLE tend to misinterpret words.

Haih... There goes my scanty savings. This time, I'm going to make sure that I park my car where these law enforces cannot touch it!

Frozen

2009-06-17T14:21:00.002+08:00

I cannot take anymore leaves till my project's completed. Not only me. In fact, everyone's leaves are frozen. Until our project is completed, we guys will have to work around the clock. Means, no more breaks till then. Instructions from my director. Ishhh-ness

Red, Yellow, Green...PAINT!

2009-06-17T12:03:00.019+08:00

I was at site to inspect the subcon's work before I allow them to proceed with painting. And, I happened to carry a camera around with me. So, let me share with you guys one of the many things and inspections that I do at site everyday.

The painting subcontractor has this instrument (don't know what it's called. It looks like a bulky thermometer to me), to check the moisture of the plastered walls before painting commences. It's a simple procedure actually. The instrument has two sharp pointy thing at the top. So, all you have to do is to cucuk it against a wall. And voila, you get the reading. Or the colour really. The instrument has to light up at green, to indicate that painting can actually proceed. If it shows yellow, then it's up to us to allow the subcon to proceed. If it's red, well, it's a definite no-no. Because if it's red, then it means that the plastered wall still has a lot of moisture in it. And, it's not advisable to continue with painting. If you do, you'll get a lot of problems in the future, the most common ones are peeling and colour fading.

If you guys read my post on "I'm Just Too Harsh", you will know that a client actually wrote an email to my bosses stating that nobody actually bothered to check the moisture on the walls before painting commenced. So, here's proof that I did the inspections. With my supervisor.

See??? My supervisor at work. So hardworking. Me, the camera-lady. :)))

Hairless Hairy Leg

2009-06-17T09:23:00.010+08:00

I was in 1-Utama with my sister last Saturday (I took a day off just to accompany her.....pokai saya T_T)

Anyway, we just got out of the diner and about to head to the exit when I noticed something which amused me A LOT. This Indian guy (or was it Punjabi), who was in front of me, had his right leg SHAVED cleaned. I stared at it a while, then pointed excitedly to my sis.

I then hastily whisked out my phone and went after the guy, trying to get a photo of his leg without he or his family members noticing. And it was super hard ok. He was walking super fast and many of the pictures that I took was a real blur. So, I had to move in closer and retake.

After many failed attempts, I managed to take a couple, which was pretty good. *congratulating self* And I showed them to my sis, laughing out loud. She looked at me and said that my laughter was so evil -___-". Cis. Nevermind. So, these are the two best shots that I managed to capture.

Laughing?? I suspected that he had his right leg shaved off because he just got himself tattoos. Tried to get his tattoos but didn't want to risk being caught. So, you guys will just have to settle for pictures of his hairless hairy leg :)

Laughter's The Best Medicine

2009-06-16T17:06:00.010+08:00

Hear! Hear! Couldn't agree more. I laugh a lot. A lot as in every little thing tickles me. And I get a lot of quizzical looks from people whenever I laughed. Because I laughed out loud. When people asked why do I always laugh, I answered laughter gets the whole pressure off your chest, and it makes you look a lot a lot younger. There are still people who think I'm only 18!! *shy shy*

And recently, I received an email from a friend. In it, was this image above. Laughter is indeed the medicine of life. So, whenever you feel down, don't get through your day with a frown or a tear. Just laugh, and you'll see that your day is not as bad as you deem it to be.

Have a great week ahead, folks!

Obstinate As A Mule

2009-06-16T14:55:00.004+08:00

Some people are just that. And stupid. And an idiot. Few months back, I talked till foam began to form at my mouth, till my friendship was nearly jeopardized, till I ran out of words to say, till I almost throw this pighead from my 16-storey building, yet, nothing happened. This idiot remained an idiot.

Now, few months later, light dawned on this idiot. And she acknowledged that what I said few months back were indeed true. What an idiot. What a pighead.

A Near - Missed Blunder

2009-06-16T14:17:00.010+08:00

I was helping my colleague search for the contact number of a supervisor from this subcon's company, Country Pool.

My assistant QS helped me out. He showed me the number. I stared at it a while. Then......

"Saya mau nombor COUNTRY POOL la... Bukan TAN GIM FOO!! Adui......" *slap palm on forehead* (I want COUNTRY POOL's number. Not TAN GIM FOO's!! Omg.....")

And the whole office burst out laughing. You see, the thing is, Mr. Tan Gim Foo, is the head of IJM construction. He's my big bosses' boss. He's the person in charge of every construction site that IJM undertakes.

Imagine if my other colleague were to call him up and start swearing and cursing him for work not done. I just can't imagine it.

Biting Off More Than I Can Chew

2009-06-11T09:59:00.006+08:00

What's with the death of a worker at my site last Saturday, and with the probing of the accident still ongoing, it's no wonder I'm now up to my neck here. On top of that, I have a lot of outstanding work that needs seeing to IMMEDIATELY both at site and in office, and not to mention the never ending meetings that requires my being there. Huh. I wonder if it's possible to be crushed underneath your own workload.

I think it's time I delegate some of my load to my subordinates. I don't want to choke on my "food".

One Year Anniversary

2009-06-09T10:51:00.004+08:00

Today marks the first year of my exposure to the working world. I learnt a lot of things. I learnt how to coerce people to work, learnt how to shoulder my extremely heavy responsibilities which if neglected, can cause deaths of many and loss of properties, learnt how to deal with people with different and weird personalities especially those who have this "One man show" idea in them, learnt how to correspond with other parties, learnt to be polite yet tough at the same time, learnt how to do my work, gained valuable experience, and the most important one of all, I grew up and am still growing.

But the very first thing I learnt, it's a mad world out there. It'a dog-eat-dog world. Happy anniversary to meee~~

Death At Site

2009-06-08T11:00:00.007+08:00

A Bangla worker fell to his death at my site last Saturday. He did not die an instant death. Instead, he suffered for almost an hour before he died. By the time I was called to site, he was already dead.

He did not fall from very high levels. Unless I'm very much mistaken, he fell from level three. His head and legs hit the concrete edges. HARD. Hence, his kneecaps were broken, his backbone broken in a few places, and his right wrist was hanging by a piece of ligament.

Everyone panicked. The other workers removed him to safety while waiting for the ambulance. But, by the time the ambulance came, he had breathed his last. And he was only 30. The police came and investigated. Then DOSH (Department of Occupational Safety and Health) came and investigated. The whole process was extremely taxing. The investigation went on till late evening. And to be continued the next day at the police station.

The death of this poor worker had reached my big big bosses' ears. Now, waiting for their visits to my site. And prepared ourselves mentally to get scolding. But, that was the last thing on my mind. When I went back home that Saturday itself, I was actually quite disturbed. This is the first time I witnessed it all. The victim started work after lunch. Five minutes later, the window hood on which he was standing on gave way, and he fell. He was only 30. I wondered how his family took the news. I felt pretty bad myself.

The victim was standing on a window hood, which wasn't designed to carry heavy loading. That was why it gave way. Now, whenever I go to site, I make very sure that the very slab on which I step on, is designed to carry immensely heavy load. *shudder*

Updates : Post-mortem results came back today. The COD was due to massive blood loss.

I'm Just Too Harsh

2009-06-03T13:55:00.005+08:00

The day before, I got a forwarded email from my boss regarding procedures of a certain kind of trade. The email was from a client, complaining bout how the procedures were carried out. I got annoyed because this client did not approach any of the staffs at the site or office, but immediately wrote an email to my bosses and c/c to his bosses. Imagine what kind of image he's portraying us here.

The thing is, my supervisors at site did carry out the procedures correctly. But, this fella, who was supposed to be full time on site, went MIA. Hence, he deduced that we took the easy way out in completing our tasks.

So, with me fuming away, I replied his email. The next day, I received an email from my boss. This was what he said;

"Dear Ellex,

I think you have been a bit rough on Mr Lim. He would be quite angry. It would be better if we were to invite him to witness the next testing.

Still pls have a few record of result of the testing in our file in case we have to show proof.

Thanks
Rgds
XXX"

Another email came from the client's boss.

"Dear Ellex,

Lim just highlight his concern and hope to minimize problem later.

regards,
YYY"

If two bosses think that I'm harsh, then I'm harsh. I refused to comment further. And I have to learn not to scar my mails with sarcasms. The next time, I will include XOXO in all my mails, which means hugs and kisses. That would really please everyone. *puh-leese*

Proof-Read

2009-06-03T09:26:00.004+08:00

I take a very long time to publish my posts. Because I always read and reread and reread my posts before I publish them. I checked , double checked, triple checked for grammatical errors and continuity of sentences. Apart from that, the setting always runs. Especially when I insert photos into my posts. And I won't publish my posts till I got all the settings in place and grammars in check. Which is why sometimes I think that blogging is very taxing.

*sigh* Call me a perfectionist.

Dying

2009-06-02T14:54:00.004+08:00

I'm dying a slow and painful death. I've worked really hard today. But, it's just the beginning. I know I said before that I won't be writing anymore. But, I decided that I do deserve a break once in a while. Hence, I'm writing this while on a short break.

I'm seriously dying from overworked. Enough said.

Selamat Hari Gawai

2009-06-01T08:31:00.009+08:00

Before I forget, I would like to wish all my friends who are busy celebrating Gawai in Sabah and Sarawak. Gawai in Sabah and Sarawak is celebrated in large scales like how Chinese New Year or Hari Raya are celebrated in the Peninsular.

Have a blast you guys!

The Most Loved And Pampered One In The Office

2009-05-31T14:29:00.008+08:00

This was during lunch with colleagues and subcon. One of the dishes we ordered was the herbal chicken. It was a whole chicken. Not cut into pieces, but whole. My manager, Mr. Ng, was dividing the chicken among us (there were 10 of us altogether). He took one drumstick for himself. And there was another one. He looked around the table, asking if anyone wanted it.

Now, according to some Chinese traditions, the youngest in the family normally gets the drumstick. Because he/she is the most loved and pampered one by all. And, it so happened that I'm the youngest sitting at the table! And in the office too! So, I got the drumstick. *happy* My happiness was equivalent to a kid getting a month supply of huge lollipops.

Initially, my manager wanted to give it to my senior engineer, Mr. Ooi, because he's leaving for Abu Dhabi soon. So, it's like a farewell "gift" to him. But, the uncles and ah peks at the tables protested, saying the youngest should get it. So, I got it. *happy happy* It was a huge piece ok? I could hardly finish it. See how big and meaty it was?

And what did Mr. Ooi get? He got the chicken wing. It was a much much smaller piece. But, what to do. I didn't ask for the drumstick. In fact, I apologized profusely because I got the drumstick instead of him. Pity him also. Hahaha.

So, I'm the most loved and pampered one in the office. xD

Chilli Queen

2009-05-31T13:57:00.006+08:00

There was once I had constant stomach ache. I confided this in my brother and friend. They both suggested that I go see a doctor. It's no joke if you have prolong stomach ache. But, I refused. I hate doctors. Just the thought of me going to a clinic or a hospital would make me coil in bed with fright. I'm serious.

A lot of people know I like chillies. The more the better. I normally take in a lot. That's why my friend actually suspected that it could be because of my love for chillies that my stomach wall is thinning. Thus, the stomach pain.

I take a lot of chillies as in before the start of my lunch or dinner, it would be this much.

Then halfway through food, I would get myself another serving of chillies. And then, when I'm done with food, this is all that's left of my chillies.

I tried abstaining from eating chillies because of the pain. But, now no pain. Hence, I can resume my intake of chillies. :)

Quote : "I Don't Give A S**t"

2009-05-30T16:21:00.005+08:00

Didn't I tell you guys that my big bosses were coming over today? Well, they did. And we accompanied them to the site. I tell you, it's really hard to entertain your bosses. Both of them just couldn't seem to walk together. They just had to split. One would walk to the left, another to the right. One would linger a little longer than the other. One would go up, the other down. One would walk faster than the other. One would walk south, the other north. Haiz... This caused our little party to split up too. And I didn't know who to follow. In the end, I followed my manager. At least, if I got scolding from the big bosses, I have my manager to protect me. Lame. I know.

After the walk round the site, the party gathered at a table for a brief meeting. Or rather, for a telling off. About ten minutes into the ticking off, my ear suddenly caught this;

"Every staff must be allocated with task(s). And they will have to see to it till the end. Those who DO NOT PERFORM, JUST TERMINATE THEM. I have excess people. It will not be a problem for me to replace them. I don't give a s**t!!......."

So, I guessed that I MUST buck up now. I don't want to be one of the staffs that do not perform and get terminated or kicked out. Hence, no more blogging, no more chatting, no more nothing. I'm serious. It's time for me to get a line at home.

A Card For Me

2009-05-30T08:09:00.010+08:00

When I checked my mail early this morning, I received a greeting card from a friend of mine. Awwww...it's so sweeeeeeet, it made my day. And I really need it because in just a short while, as I'm typing this, my two big bosses, not my manager's boss, but my bosses' bosses, are coming over for a site visit. So, you know what kind of bosses I'm referring to.

So, back to the card. It read;

Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply.. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.

A great thank you for the card. I actually smiled when I received this mail. *MUACKSSSS*

I Can't Get Out Of Malaysia!

2009-05-29T08:58:00.005+08:00

My brother, Thomas Ting, is in London now. He's doing his top up degree in Sheffield and then continue on with his Masters there. And, if everything falls into place, he might be wheeling in pounds and more POUNDS! *envious*

I've been trying my very best to get out of Malaysia and work overseas, in countries like the USA, UK, Abu Dhabi, Dubai or even Singapore. Yet, all efforts proved fruitless. Nobody wants to hire me. Or rather, I'm not fated to go out!! Ish ish... Frustrated to the max!

I also want to reel in the pounds. T___T

Stupid Migrain

2009-05-28T16:46:00.004+08:00

I think I don't have enough sleep. Hence, the pounding in my head. It has got to be the lack of sleep. Ishhhhhh......

Anyone has any remedies or suggestion on how to curb this migraine????? It's killing me slowly.

Crazy Poem, I Write

2009-05-27T15:58:00.019+08:00

I'm baffled, I'm troubled.

I'm no investigator, I'm no Nancy Drew.

When mysteries arrive from both ends, I hit dead end.

Solving mysteries, just so not my cup of tea.

Hurling accusations, I cannot.

Friendships turn sour, it's a heavy price to pay.

Clues all around, I know not how to choose.

Bosom friend, long lost friend, different stories they told me.

One never lied to me, one with split personality problem.

Who to believe, you tell me.

For because of this, asylum here I come.

Chuck out the window, that's exactly what I'll do!

IJM Land Warrant

2009-05-27T10:47:00.006+08:00

IJM Corporation and Road Builder Land merged a while ago. Hence, IJM Land. Recently, IJM Land gave out warrants to its staff. The number of warrants eligible for each staff depends on his/her grade and years of service. But but butttttttt......minimum years of service is one (1) year as of 30th of April 2009. Everyone in my office is eligible for it, except for me. Because as of 30th of April 2009, I've only worked for 11 months *staring in disbelief* One month short of one year. And because of that one month, I couldn't get my fair share of the warrants.

When my colleagues just bought the warrants, it was at RM 0.302/unit. The last I checked, it was at RM 0.750/unit. All of them waited with bated breath, waiting to sell off their warrants as soon as they got hold of them.

What can I say? It's just my loss T_T

Adam Lambert vs Kris Allen

2009-05-23T18:03:00.026+08:00

Ok, this part of the post has nothing to do with the title at all. I always thought that I would definitely spend the whole day in front of the comp when I'm back home. The truth is, it's the total opposite. I don't even spend time in front of the TV, let alone the comp. Reasons? Because, I either spend most of my time in my room (queen-sized bed with air-cond OK??) snoring away, or out with friends, or out with parents. And also to laze around. Haha. That's why it's hard to catch me online at night (cause I'm so used to sleeping early that by the time it's 10 or 11 pm, my eyelids start to feel heavy). And my blog is always left unattended whenever I'm on break. So, now I'm back on track :) Did I just hear people cheering? *perasan case*

===============================================

Those who are into American Idol like I do, though I sorta MIA somewhere in between the competition (no TV), knew that the final duo were Adam Lambert (two thumbs up!!) and Kris Allen. When I watched the final showdown between the two of them, I personally thought that Adam Lambert was a much better singer, as compared to Kris Allen.

Though I don't really fancy rock singers and songs, I thought that Adam Lambert's rock version of his songs were pretty good, especially the one on Mad World by Tears for Fears and Black or White by Michael Jackson. As praised by the judges, he put a touch of his originality here and there in his songs. I couldn't agree more. And I especially like the duet with the rock band KISS in the finale.

You guys should watch it. This performance got all four judges standing and the crowds totally totally totally lose it!! I kept replaying the video on Youtube, till my mom screamed at me for giving her headache. Haha.

However, barely a week after the Season 8 winner, Kris Allen, was crowned, conspiracy theories start to surface. It was claimed that, the producers made very sure that Kris Allen would get the title, for he was humble, nice, decent etc etc etc.

Adam Lambert on the other hand, who had a rock star image, wore eye-liners, and is rumoured to be gay, wasn't anyone's idea of an idol.

So, the boy-next-door got the title. Hey, don't persecute me. I heard this over the radio.

But, I personally think so too. There had to be some funny stuff going on behind the scenes. I mean, just look at the final showdown between the two of them. Adam Lambert definitely won HANDS DOWN!! No doubt of that. During Adam Lambert's performance on Mad World by Tears for Fears, Simon Cowell even gave him a standing ovation!! I mean how cool was that!

Some people don't like Adam. For example, my sister. She said that he screamed in practically every song. But, his screams don't go off pitch. And it kinda go well with his songs. I think Adam Lambert really should win. And I'm beginning to fall in love with him, gay or not! This guy can really sing, man!

With The Help Of A Card

2009-05-21T23:24:00.003+08:00

Remember I got locked out of my room the day before? Well, I managed to open the door!!! Yes!! I did it. And, I did it without hammering the door down. There was no damage whatsoever to the door. I had three tools to use to open the door. All suggested by my colleagues; a hammer, a brick, and a slipper. But, all I used was this;

(Photos will be uploaded later. Now at home. Forgot cable. Phai seh. hehe)

A Bonuslink card. Poor thing. That was the only thing that I managed to retrieve after rummaging in my bag and pockets for five long minutes. And it took me a freaking 30 minutes, just to open the door. I was practically bathing in my own sweat by the time I managed to open it. But, I was sooooo relieved that all frustrations and anger disappeared when the door opened. You have no idea how relieved I was. Really.

The next time, I'm going to check, double check and triple check my keys before I locked my room. I have no intentions of getting locked outside again. Or maybe, I should get myself a few copies of the keys. Just to be on the safe side.

Locked Out Of Room

2009-05-20T18:23:00.004+08:00

I got back home a little after 5.30 pm, just to realise one thing; I left my room keys in my room. And an even better news that follow suit is, my housemates have no spare key. So, I'm locked out of my room. I tried picking the lock for at least 30 minutes, cursing under my breath all the way, but to no avail.

With that, I came back to the office, desperately seeking for help from my colleagues. A lot of demonstrations on how to unlock the damn door. But, to be honest, I don't think I can do any of those. The last resort? Get a hammer and hammer the knob in. Thus, I'm taking the hammer from my office home with me. And the next day, just get a knob from my site for free. One of the advantages of working at a site, and as a main contractor.

Now, I have to get back and try picking on the lock once more, before I vent all of my angst and frustration and start hammering the whole door down. Wish me luck!

Illegal Squatters

2009-05-20T13:23:00.008+08:00

I did my usual rounds at site one morning with Uncle Saw when we noticed a "hut". These workers really do have the cheek to set up their own squatters here. Although it was pretty run down, I was actually surprised that it was quite well furnished with all the necessities, from cooking stoves to kitchen utensils to plates to lamps at night.

And they even had clothesline to dry their clothes.

Whilst I was doing a Nancy Drew, I saw a few of them relaxing, clad in nothing but their sarong.

They were practically staring at me. No, not staring. GLARING. I suddenly got scared and scooted away. But, on the way out, I saw this.

Faeces!! No wonder my site stank like crazy. I almost died of suffocation just to take this picture.

Well, with all of these pictures as evidence, I would be able to write a memo to the respective subcon and slap them with a heavy penalty. Subcons know very well that workers are not allowed to sleep at site, to prevent thievery. Hahaha.

So, now you guys know what I do best; writing memos and letters.

Zachary Quinto, starred as Spock in Star Trek 2009. Ahhhh~~~~~ He's dead gorgeous.... *melted*

He's even good looking in that weird hair-do and pointy ears, clean-shaven and all.

Zac~~ He also acted in 24 and Heroes. Oh, and he's half Italian and half Irish. Handsomeeeeee. This, I like. :)

A Topsy-Turvy World

2009-05-19T09:38:00.010+08:00

Recently, I was talking to a friend when the topic of guys becoming even more emotional than girls, cropped up. Apparently, guys nowadays are getting more and more sensitive. You have to exercise caution and care whenever you tread anywhere near them. Approximately at a 2km radius. *roll eyes* Seriously, I can't fathom it at all. I thought guys are the tougher gender.

Let me relate a few of the many unfathomable, head-scratching, mind-boggling stories that I heard;

Guy A was mad at Guy B. Reason? Guy B didn't want to accompany Guy A to the gents. So Guy A threw a fit and kept to himself, refusing to talk to Guy B. Guy B was left pondering what he had done wrong.

Guy B walked to the car without waiting for Guy A. Guy A sat sulking at a corner because Guy B didn't walk together with him to the car. And Guy B was left thinking what happened to Guy A.

Those are only to name a few. Are they even for real????? Now, where did all the macho guys go??? What happened to the guys now?? Come to think of it, I think it's because of the existence of the X-chromosome in them. And it's taking control over the guys.

Working On A Sunday

2009-05-17T09:24:00.004+08:00

It's a Sunday........ And I'm actually working. Haih. As if working six days a week is not enough, I have to work on a Sunday too.

But, on the plus side, I get an extra leave. :)

Windows DEAD Messenger

2009-05-15T17:30:00.006+08:00

I got disconnected from MSN ever so often that one of my friends took to asking if I was doing the Chipsmore ad. The Now you see me, now you don't phrase. Sometimes, I got disconnected even without me knowing it, resulting in me getting an earful from a particular friend for keeping idle.

Lately, I noticed that I've been getting disconnected more often ever since I started using the latest MSN version. Getting connected for more than 5 minutes with this latest MSN version is considered an achievement beyond expectation *roll eyes*. At first, I blamed it on the connection. But, when I switched to the old version, I managed to stay connected throughout.

What does this tell you? The problem does not lie in the connection speed. It has everything to do with the latest MSN version. And now I'm stuck with the old version. Haih. Nevermind la. At least I'm still connected.

Gangsters Wannabe

2009-05-15T08:09:00.020+08:00

Two colleagues of mine, wanted to act cool, to look cool. But, they didn't quite pull it off. Instead, they looked like thugs.

This is Uncle Saw. You see how cool he wanted to be, yet, looking as though he's super blur. Somemore picking on his teeth in the car. See the toothpick in his left hand? -__- "

He even wore a ring, a huge one in fact, in the hopes of scaring people off. I think if he were to punch someone in the face, that ring will definitely leave a permanent mark on the poor guy's face.

This is James Yang, also trying but failing to look 'yeng'. This picture was taken when he was on MC. He came back to the office to get some stuff. I had to stand under the blazing hot sun just to snap this photo. If he knew I posted this in my blog, I'm as dead as a roasted pig! And I think his shades and cap are too small for his face. Don't you think so?

See how he sat when he answered his phone? Trying to look and act cool, but sat like a trishaw puller. FAIL.

Both of them had their sunglasses on, trying to look cool and sorts, yet ended up looking like mobsters. What about me? Do I look like one too when I had my sunglasses on?? Or do I look cool... Hehehe :))

Dry Spell Season

2009-05-14T16:20:00.004+08:00

The weather was so hot that I couldn't even sleep at all. There was a time when I had to wake up at 3 am just to shower, and then went back to sleep. And in no time at all, I started to perspire again.

But, yesterday, was the first time I was so glad that it rained. It did not just rain. It poured!!! Thank god!! I turned on my fan full blast and slept soundly. It was the best sleep that I could ever bargain for.

Hopefully the weather continues. Otherwise, dehydration is definitely on its way.

Imagine A World Without Engineers

Mechanical Engineers

Civil Engineers

Communications Engineers

Computer Engineers

Aeronautical Engineers

So, boys and girls, it's high time you appreciate engineers. :)))

Happy Mothers' Day

2009-05-11T17:36:00.008+08:00

A Happy Mothers' Day to all mothers out there. ESPECIALLY to mineeeeee. Here's something I found in the net, which I find it to be true;

A Mother's Blessing

Of all the special joys in life,

The big ones, and the small,

A mother's love and tenderness,

Is the greatest of them all.

Tracked!!

2009-05-11T15:42:00.015+08:00

You know what? I think someone from HQ is keeping track on what I do online. ShiT!!!!!!!!! You know what that means???? Do you???? It means, no more MSN, or blogger.com, or google, or what-nots in the future. Otherwise, I will be blocked.....for GOOD!!!

And I will surely die, a slow yet painful death. But what baffles me is, HQ's in PJ. My office's in Cheras. PJ and Cheras is about 30 minutes drive away. So, how did they do it??? Enlighten me please.

When A No Is A FREAKING No

2009-05-11T14:58:00.010+08:00

Was at Tesco, Island Glades with my parents and bro last Saturday night. We were too caught up with our shopping that by the time we knew it, it was already 11 pm. On our exit, we had to pass by a few business kiosks. Most of them were closed, but there were a few still opened, trying to lure as many customers as possible. My family and I were making our way to the escalator when a guy from RHB Bank stopped my parents and talked them into getting a credit card.

It was fine by me. But, my parents were already saying NO NO NO a million times. Yet this guy just didn't understand. Either that, or he was just playing dumb. It was already 11 pm. I was dead tired. Sleepy. And we stood there for at least 30 minutes, saying a freaking NO to the guy. My face was already getting longer and longer, blacker and blacker by the minute. Yet, as though not enough, his colleague had to butt in. Soon, it seemed that they were begging my parents to fill out the forms, out of desperation. Literally. It was pathetic.

And I had enough. I pulled my mom away. A No is a No. Stop pestering others. It's annoying.

Forgot to take a picture of the guy. Managed to take a pic of his colleague.

See how busy she was jotting down my mom's hp number?????

Motherly Instinct

2009-05-11T11:41:00.010+08:00

People normally said that if your eldest is a daughter, then she will have this motherly instinct deep within her. At first I just brushed it off, thinking that it's another myth that people-with-nothing-better-to-do come out with. I mean it's not scientifically proven. What utter nonsense.

Well, I don't say that it's not a myth, but, I think there is some truth in it after all. A little bit. Oh my god, I think I'm going nuts.

Back To Work....

2009-05-11T10:35:00.004+08:00

I just got back the night before. And it's Monday today. *YAWNNNNN* Sleepy. No more holidays. No more sleeping late. No more sleeping in. No more outings. No more pampering. No more shopping. No more lazing around. No more Astro.

It's back to work for me. Ishhh...

When Age Catches Up With You

2009-05-08T00:38:00.003+08:00

It's 00:45 and I'm still awake. Chatting. And blogging. But, my eyelids are heavy. And in the past hour or so, I think I've yawn a hundred times. I think now I can no longer stay up late.

During my uni days, staying up till the wee hours had been a norm to my course mates and I. We sometimes went on for almost a week without so much of a wink, just to rush up on assignments and projects in order to meet deadlines. Hence, staying up late has never been a problem to us students.

But now, my eyelids are drooping, whole body's aching, and I'm thinking bout my bed upstairs. I doubt I can stay awake much longer. What happened to the time when I could go on for a week without sleep? I think I have to embrace the fact that I'm getting older. And I don't like it at all. Cis.

What I Did On My First Day Back Home

2009-05-07T18:26:00.006+08:00

Incoming sms at 8.08 am from a friend, telling me that she was fast asleep the night before while waiting for my reply because she had taken a cough drop, and that she had just woken up. Ishhh.... disturb my beauty sleep nia. I totally ignored her sms.
Woke up around 10.30 am, rolled around in bed a while, wrapping myself with my comforter like a big roll of popia, and returned my friend's sms. But then, brain still half asleep, so cannot really think straight.
Continued sleeping. I don't get to wake up late ok when I'm working.
Woke up 30 minutes later. Still didn't feel like getting up. Lazed around in my bed while reading Archie comic books. Note the 's' in books. Yeah, I have a few.
Jumped out of bed as though got electrocuted (cause Mom was screaming for me to get up). Ambled to the washroom to wash up and bathe.
Got changed and went out for lunch.
Went for facial. Took 2 hours and 40 minutes before I finally walked out of the saloon. Have to really clean my face after the exposure to the sun ever since I started work. What to do, it's the nature of my work.
Came back, picked brother up from school, then went shopping with my mom. Spent RM 200.00 It's at my expense one ok? :(
Got home, checked my mail, and blog while waiting for dinner. Still blogging although I said numerous times that I'm going on strike. Maybe I should go on strike.
So gonna sit in front of the TV watching Astro till it's time to chat online.
Can't wait to chat with my friend later at night. But then, she has another fella to talk too. Cis...Now thinking if I should online later not. Hopefully I won't get chased upstairs to bed by my parents because it will be quite late then.

Taking A Break

2009-05-06T10:39:00.007+08:00

I'm going back to my hometown this evening. Right after work. Wheeeee~~~~ I'm going to drive back for the first time EVER. And since it's my first time driving back home from KL to Penang, my parents are a little too anxious...........Ok ok ok, they're very anxious. To those who know them well, you know what I mean. I was on the phone for 30 long minutes with my mom talking about absolutely nothing but on how to drive safely back to Penang. And then, my mom pula pass the phone to my dad. Add another 10 minutes or so. Haih. There was a slight buzzing and my left ear went completely numb by the time I hung up.

Actually, I have to drive back this time because my dear brother has to move out of his hostel already. And, goodness me, the things that he has to bring back. Things that he has accumulated over his four-year stay here. Tsk tsk tsk. You should really see his mountainous pile of rubbish!

I received intelligence that the modem at home was burnt out. Meaning, I won't be able to stay connected when I'm back home. T_T. How did my youngest brother use the modem till it's badly burnt, I don't think I want to know.

Looking at the bright side, I'm going home to be pampered by my parents~~~

Congee

2009-05-04T12:07:00.030+08:00

I was out with my brother the day before when he said he was peckish. Since it was already 9 pm, and I was beginning to show signs of exhaustion (I just came back from Taman Negara three hours ago), we decided to head to a coffee shop nearby to eat before I dropped him back.

He ordered himself a plate of chicken rice whilst I sat at a table, still undecisive. After 5 minutes or so, I decided to order Congee from a stall just in front of our table. Now, I had no idea what a Congee looked like nor how would it taste like either. It seemed catchy. And I was curious too.

Hence, I headed to the stall and order a large bowl of Congee. I did not know why I ordered a large bowl. I had no idea what had gotten into me. Perhaps it was because my brother said he was peckish. Or perhaps I was just too tired and couldn't think straight. Or maybe I thought it was cheap. RM 3 for a large bowl.

When it came, both my brother and I took to staring at the bowl. It was really a very, very big portion.

It seemed like a mixture of starch, barley and red beans. Those were the few that I could identify. Correct or not, I don't know. I took a spoonful and tasted it. It doesn't taste nice at all. In fact, it's tasteless. I then made my brother finish the whole thing. But, he was already full. And the thing was too goo-ey to swallow. So, I just took like three spoonfuls, and left. The hawker must be wondering why I didn't finish it up. It looked practically untouched when we left.

The next time, I'm not going to order anything without knowing what it was first.

Injured

2009-05-04T09:27:00.019+08:00

WARNING 25 PL: This is not for the faint-hearted. Embrace yourselves before you scroll any further.

I was at Taman Negara last weekend when I got this. I only noticed it after I came out from the bathroom. At first I thought that I had a bad cut. But, the thing was, I didn't feel the pain when I showered, and I definitely couldn't remember when and where I had hit my ankle. And for it to bleed so badly, I had to hit it real hard because I was in jeans and had my socks on.

I gently wiped off the blood to locate the source of the cut. But, all I found was a small hole. A puncture in fact. My mind immediately registered one thing ; LEECH! Shit!!

I was there at Taman Negara for three whole days. For the two days I was there, no bites, no nothing. No, I had to be bitten on the last day, on the last 30 minutes we were about to leave, in fact. When I checked my wound, the leech was already gone. I guessed that it came off when I removed my socks or jeans. Not wanting to bring any back home with me, I checked my socks and jeans thoroughly. I even took to checking my whole body, in case it had crawled its way up to goodness knows where. No where to be found.

Minutes later, while I was still tending to the puncture, I heard excited squeals from somewhere outside our dorm. Thasha was so ecstatic when she saw the leech that she just had to squeal. Haha. Now, I present you the culprit, Mr. Leech a.k.a Mr. Blood-sucker.

Thasha and I were wondering what to do with the leech when Peter mentioned about the effects of salt on it. And Thasha decided to test it on the leech. -___-''. The moment the salt came into contact with the leech, it started squirming and later it bled. Seriously. It really bleed. And then, it sorta went rigid and died. I would have felt sorry for the leech if it hadn't punctured my leg in the first place. Oh, well......

I was too engrossed in watching the whole thing that I forgot to video-taped the whole thing. I only managed to tape the last part of it. At least something right??

By the way, I had a blast at Taman Negara. Tiring but fun. :)

SMS gone haywire

2009-04-29T20:01:00.006+08:00

I was in my office, sending sms-es to my friend and at the same time trying to complete my work. However, there was one message that I sent which got her laughing like a mad person. It went like this (don't have to know the whole story) :

Bluekkkk...y he 1 noe? chicken...hidin bhind gals skirt. 1 2 noe tp dun 1 ask me..tp ask u..reli big fat chicken..pok pok pok *kepak armpit*

That was all. Serious. Frankly, I don't see the humour. But she told me she started laughing like a crazy witch. And when her students grabbed her phone and read my message, they started laughing. Almost died too (according to her). And one of her students wants to get to know me too.

.......... I still don't see the humour.

I Know I Should Sympathise, But.....

2009-04-27T09:10:00.016+08:00

Presenting you, James Yang Chong Wei. And I have a rib-tickling story to tell you people. At least to me it is funny. See the background? Uncle Saw and I were at the coffee shop downstairs, having our breakfast when James joined us. Well, I was too engrossed in "korek-ing" my half-boiled eggs to look at him while talking. It was after my breakfast that I looked up and took a good long look at him. That's when I noticed a bruise on his right eye.

I then asked, "Bak chiam arr?" (meaning, sore eyes?)

He said no indignantly and went on to explain that it was all the senior engineer, Mr. Ooi's fault. They had a dinner outing with ex-colleagues on Saturday night. Mr. Ooi somehow got lost, so he called James up. However, James was too busy directing him that he didn't see the glass wall/door in front of him.

He ended up walking right into it and hit his eye at the edge of the glass door, which explained the bruise on his eye.

By the time he had finished his story, I was already hooting like a mad person, earning myself reproving glares and scowls from old folks from nearby tables. They all must be thinking along the same line, "Crazy witch....."

Thank God I had finished eating. Otherwise I'll definitely gag on my breakfast. I am, till now, still nonplussed as in how he could walk straight into the glass door. I couldn't help but imagine hearing the "PIANGGGG!!!" sound and seeing the glass door quiver everytime I see him, which got me started again. HAHAHA. And he's now walking around with that eye swollen and smaller than the other. *laughing and hitting the table*

Cat Nap

2009-04-27T08:50:00.019+08:00

Never doze off in an office, especially in MY office, not even to steal a wink or two. Otherwise, you'll end up like my senior engineer here, whose picture was stealthily taken by Uncle Saw. My work requires each engineer and supervisor to carry a camera around with us all the time. Hence, if you do anything funny or stupid, you'll definitely end up in our cameras. In my case, my camera and MY BLOG, for public viewing. Wahahahaha.

And the poor guy didn't know that I put his picture up in my blog. I'm real evil. Embrace it. *evil cackle*

I'm Likeable Alright!

Officially my dumbest friend..... Her partner leh..... Haih. No comments.

Angry posts

2009-04-23T17:37:00.008+08:00

Great, now a close friend of mine commented that the genre of my writing has changed. I sounded angry and bitter in all of my posts (ya meh???). Haih. It could be that I didn't notice it. But, if anyone does, then I guess I'm channeling all of my fury and resentment through my posts. It's the only way to relieve myself of the build up stress within me. If I don't do that, I think I'll go crazy in no time at all.

Recently I've been in an extremely foul mood that I've been lashing out at people for no apparent reason at all. I think it's best if I disappear from MSN for a while till I recover. Otherwise, a lot of people will innocently meander into my "coop" and become the victims of my wrath.

I think what I need now is a long long long break. All thanks to that stupid cow.

Gotta Slow Down...

2009-04-23T15:02:00.014+08:00

I was talking to my colleagues when they stopped me abruptly.

"Can you talk slower ahh?"

*raised both eyebrows* ..... "What??"

"You talk too fast laaa amoi... By the time I digest your first sentence, you're already moving on to the third paragraph."

"Your digestion too slow laa..."

"No, I also think that you talk too fast... Kalah itu concorde...."

*Office rang with laughter*

"Where gottttt... Normal speed ba...."

"Face it la amoi...."

"......."

Concorde??? That bad??? *baffled*

Long-Winded

2009-04-23T14:49:00.006+08:00

I just noticed something. My blog has very few pictures. It's too wordy. And I think it's boring. Haih. It IS boring. Double haih.

How to not type so long?? I'm one that don't like to summarise. I prefer details. Even when I tell stories, I go into details. Until I'm out of breath. I didn't know that I'm such a long-winded person. And it reflects in my blog.

So how????

COW

2009-04-23T09:44:00.006+08:00

Can anyone please advice me on how to get rid of someone? This guy, Mr. Bong a.k.a Mr. Idiot, the client's COW (clerk of work), has and always been giving me and my project trouble. Hence, I want him out of my site. As in, really out. Out out out!!! Barred from my site. Not even a strand of his facial hair into my site!! This time he has gone too far. He got me into trouble with my Project Director (PD). And I got bombed so early in the morning. Haih, spoilt my mood.

Really idiot. Really stupid. Really a cow!!

Chinese Doctor a.k.a Sin Sei

2009-04-22T19:54:00.008+08:00

Right after lunch yesterday, I went with Uncle Saw to a Chinese doctor or sin sei that he normally frequents. You see, somehow or other, Uncle Saw hit his hand hard on some steel bars whilst at work at site. So his palm was ballooning to the size of a....errmm....baseball glove.

So, there we were at the sin sei's place and he had his palm massaged and rubbed and don't-know-what by her. I tried taking pictures of the whole process but somehow I had this feeling that she didn't really approve of it. Because I think either she was venting her discontent at my camera snapping by pressing really hard on Uncle Saw's bruised palm (because he was virtually screaming) or I noticed her super elongated face. So, I only took a few shots.

The whole massaging thing only took about 10-15 minutes. Thank God it was brief. I thought I almost died of boredom. And the smell stinks! Ugghhh!!

Ravenous

2009-04-22T19:12:00.009+08:00

Lunches with subcons were always very satisfying. More often than not, they would order a lot of dishes that it really is impossible to finish it all up, even with ten or sometimes twelve people seated around the table. Well, there would always be one or two with really huge appetites that they could eat a much bigger portion than others. Still, one really couldn't wipe everything off the plates.

However, at one of the lunches with the subcons, I noticed one particular fella, who was actually almost trying to lick a plate clean! Everyone had had their fill and were busy talking. This guy however, having eaten so much, was attempting to lick the fish off its plate! He was biting off the fins, the tails, digging for more fish meat between the bones and other parts of the fish that I could not identify and goodness knows what else! The only thing that he did not touch was the fish head.

The fish head left untouched

When I looked down at his plate, he had practically eaten everything clean that even a cat could find nothing to eat!

The fish WAS HUGE OK??? And he finished it up, including the other ten or so dishes as well. I'm not sure if he's trying to save up on his lunch money or he's really really extremely super duper hungry. And he's the guy who hid the packets of Milo and milk powder in the cabinet in the admin's room *speechless*

Public Consumption Made Private

2009-04-22T18:17:00.012+08:00

Mind you, I didn't go snooping around. I just happen to stumble upon it.

I was busily sorting out my documents when one of the subcontractors approached me to ask for some drawing plans in a CD. Hence, I walked towards the cabinet in the admin's room to get a blank CD.

When I opened the drawer, my eyes instantaneously spotted these; a huge packet of Milo and a packet of creamer, neatly tucked away amongst the stationary sets.

Initially I thought those belong to the admin. But, she told me those were not hers. They were bought by my Project Manager for the staffs' consumption! Quizzically I looked at her and asked what those two packets were doing in the cabinet when they should be placed in the pantry.

She looked slightly abashed when she answered me. So-and-so had asked to keep the packets of Milo and creamer in the cabinet, for fear everyone will finish them up. -____-''

The Milo and creamer were for everyone's consumption. Yet this guy kept them hidden. And he's known to be the gluttonous type in the office. Ah...the funny people you come across while working.

Temporary "Office"

2009-04-22T16:13:00.008+08:00

My site office is a very small place. Well, it's only set up temporarily until the end of the project. After that, it will be torn down. Hence, there are limited tables and chairs and........well, computers. So, the tables are only meant for the administrator, quantity surveyors, engineers and managers. No place for supervisors.

Since they have no tables or chairs to sit on, one of the supervisors decided to set up his own "office" at site. As in, at the site itself. For his own convenience.

No wonder I don't see him in the office anymore. And now I know where to find him when I need his help :)

Women Make Good Drivers Too

2009-04-22T14:46:00.006+08:00

A colleague of mine sent this clip to me. Thought I'd share it with you guys for a laugh.

So, who said women are bad drivers, eh?? Enjoy the clip. :)

Bah!!

2009-04-22T13:45:00.004+08:00

Women submitting themselves to men. *scoffs*

Well, I'm actually not against that. I just find it hilarious that some people take this a wee bit too over the top. Unless I'm very much mistaken, I am pretty sure that part of it meant "Wives, submit yourselves to your husbands". In other words, MARRIED COUPLESSSSSS. Unless you're married, please refrain from doing so. Hello? There is this thing called D - I - G - N - I - T - Y?

Look it up in the dictionary for its definition. And stop mortifying yourself.

With Friends Like These, Who Needs Enemies?

2009-04-18T20:28:00.011+08:00

How true. Imagine your friend, claims that you're her best-est friend. Yet, kicked you aside when a guy comes waltzing along. Imagine your friend, argued and quarrelled with you, for the guy's sake! The guy, whom she only knew a few months ago, whilst you and her go long way back since the beginning of high school. Imagine your friend, threw your decade of friendship out of the window, to be replaced with a few months of friendship with a guy. Imagine your friend, told you right in your face, that she has known the guy a decade ago, even longer than when she knew you, but then lost contact with him till recently, yet, forgets about the stuff that you did with her throughout the decade. Imagine you, were not allowed to do anything, not even as much as lifting a finger, so as not to hurt or insult the guy in any possible way. Otherwise, their non-existence relationship will be on rocks. Imagine your friend, who never pleaded for your sake, not even once, nor for anyone else's, pleaded with you to leave the guy alone. Imagine you, your existence being taken for granted, because she knows you're always going to be there for her, because you HAVE always been there, no matter rain or shine.

Well, after all, it's only a claim. What more can I say? I'm hence stepping out to give way to the guy whom she treasures above all others.

Sweet Sixteen~~

2009-04-18T10:45:00.017+08:00

A very happy birthday to my youngest brother, Timothy Ting. And a happy sweet sixteen. I don't know if this sweet sixteen thingy applies to guys or not. It sounds sissy though. Haha. Anyway, just want to wish you, little bro, the very best that life can and will offer you. Also wishing great achievements in your life. In whatever you do, hopefully that success will follow suit. Enjoy your day today and have a BLAST!!!

Big boy liao. Grow up liao. Outgrow all of the games already. Have something for you, though.

On your birthday, little brother,

I wish that all your dreams come true.

May your day be filled with joy,

Wonderful gifts and goodies, too.

On your day I wish for you

Favorite people to embrace,

Loving smiles and caring looks

That earthly gifts cannot replace.

I wish you fine and simple pleasures.

I wish you many years of laughter.

I wish you all of life’s best treasures.

I wish you happily ever after!

Happy Birthday!

All the best in your studies and a happy sweet sixteen to you again. Errr.....ok, maybe sweet sixteen just doesn't sound right. A happy birthday to you. :)))))

Changes You Don't Want To See...Or Know

2009-04-17T14:42:00.034+08:00

People change every day. Every minute even. However, some people noted drastic changes in themselves, some not so, while others gradually. Some change for the better, some for the worse, whilst SOME for the sake of others, to a point where they are not themselves any longer. You can't tell who their true selves are anymore, for what they portray are nothing but frauds and lies.

I put up this post because a friend of mine took a 180 degree change for the sake of one idiot. She is a strong person, who has her own say, her own stand, her own way (though sometimes she can be a wee bit out of hand). However, the existence of this guy, made her change totally. She's now submitting herself TOTALLY to him, which I think is way below acceptable. Why? Because he's treating her like crap! And she just doesn't get it.

She's not the type of person who begs for the mercy of others, from all these years that I've known her. But there is one thing that she knows; I have a very quick tongue. I can shoot and tear the other person down to its core! So, when I noticed that she has drastic changes in certain angles of her life, I decided to lash out at this idiot, wanting to give him a piece of my mind (10 or 100 pieces don't even matter). And I was about to do that when she started pleading, fearing that her relationship with him will be blown to smithereens. What the hell! I was damn annoyed at her. Very pissed off, truth be told!

How she could be so into this.......this.......person...I have not the slightest idea. He has personality disorder. He has mental problem. Basically, he's a guy not worth caring for. Cis!

And this friend of mine had better come out of her reverie before I kick both of them in the asses.

D-U-N-I-A

2009-04-15T13:24:00.006+08:00

Was busy blogging when my colleague came up to me and asked me a riddle.

"Di tengah dunia ada apa?"

*Blink blink*

"Errr......Tak tahu."

"Apa ni.....Teka-teki yang begitu senang pun tak tahu. Di tengah dunia ada 'N' la....Hahaha.."

"................"

Lame? Yeah, I know.

THIS is the culprit. My assistant QS. Really very free.

P/s : If you're wondering why his expression looked funny, that's because I caught him by surprise. Haha.

Acrobatic Stunts In The Office

2009-04-13T17:03:00.007+08:00

Ok, I was chatting with my other colleagues when Uncle Saw did something that caught my attention! He was actually attempting to do a split and monkey bar stunt thing!! I secretly used my colleague's handphone to snap his pictures. Secretly cause if he knew what I was up to, he would stop doing all that.

It was hilarious ok!! I nearly died laughing. Hahaha. You guys see them for yourselves.

Deaf!

2009-04-11T16:41:00.006+08:00

"Please turn off the music so I can concentrate on my work."

Hence, I silently went into the room to make a phone call.

"Cis cis cis, your head arr!"

Bloody pissed off, stormed right up to him and asked, "Since when did I say CIS? Did you listen properly or not?!?!?!?"

Terrible guy!! Scold me for no apparent reason!

Zaman Melayu Lama

2009-04-10T09:45:00.006+08:00

If you guys noticed, I used a lot of Cis in my posts and my speech. Most of the time, it's uttered jokingly. When I'm pissed off, I don't use Cis no more. It's be something a little harsher. Haha.

Each time I used the word, it amuses my assistant QS so much because my usage of the word reminded him of the black and white P. Ramlee movie; "Cis, bedebah!!" Sounds familiar, doesn't it?? Just that I leave out the word bedebah.

Well, I'm still using it now and then. At least it made someone laugh. :))

Show Offs

Cheh! Just because the M&E Manager's nearby, you purposely show your authority by scolding me and asking me to do my work. Come on la. Lay off the act!! Everyone knows that you don't work and you run away from responsibilities. So, you don't have to scold me or ask me to do work in order to show others that you CAN work. You're just acting. Just showing off.

Show off!! Stupid buasir guy *scoffs*

Wu-pingly Handsome~~~

Oooooooooohhhhhhhhh.....Daniel Wu's soooooo cute~~~ And handsome~~~ Hahaha. *in love*

NICE BOD!!! *misty-eyed*

I went to watch Shinjuku Incident the day before. To be frank, I don't like the movie. The storyline was too fast for my liking. And there were too many Japanese names that I sorta jumbled them up and ended up not knowing who's who. But, Daniel Wu's there!! He's there!!! Well, it was one of the reasons why I watched the movie in the first place *blushed*

Oh, well......It's cheaper to catch a movie on Wednesday for it's a movie day. Daniel Wu~~~~ *fainted*

What An Asshole

2009-04-08T13:54:00.005+08:00

In my line of work, you have to be professionals when it comes to both writing and replying letters, memos or emails. However, there's this Mr Asshole aka Mr Power Hungry aka Mr Son of a Bitch, who when replies, let his emotions take the better of him. He doesn't seem to mind if his replies offended anyone as long as he gets his message across and gets recognitions from his bosses. And his replies, my god, his English sucks so much that it's a wonder the recipients can understand what he's saying.

Mind you asshole, I can be involved in this letter-war thingy and shred you to the core. But, like I said. YOU HAVE TO BE A PROFESSIONAL. I'm not descending to his level of idiocy and stupidity. After all, my position is higher than his. Live with it, idiot.

I just hope the bosses will see right through him and kick him out of my site. Stupid idiotic bugger bastard.

Comp Crash

2009-04-07T19:24:00.014+08:00

The stupid comp died on me again this morning. Halfway through when I was using it. Damn! Lucky thing I had back-ups, or else............I hate to think otherwise.

And this time round, Yosemite Sam's back at work!! When I told him about the comp, I received a sharp rap on my head. Hmph!! It's his way of punishing me. CIS!! And now my head hurts.......

Absent-Minded

2009-04-07T17:58:00.005+08:00

I was about to go home when I noticed something missing; my car keys. In my desperation, I frantically looked around and tore the office apart just to locate my keys. I even almost stripped naked Yosemite Sam because I thought that he took and hid my keys, for the sheer fun of it.

When I was about to make my way to the coffee shop where we usually have our breakfast every morning, to ask if I had left my keys on the table, I noticed that my car wasn't locked. I then walked over to my car to check. And guess what? My bunch of keys was still in the ignition. Meaning, the key was in the ignition since 8 in the morning.

Thank God nobody noticed or even if they did, they didn't drive off with my car. I guess I have to be extra cautious the next time round.
