Doakan

Macam-macam hal yang happen lately. Pergolakan di Mesir yang semakin teruk. Apalah agaknya khabar saudara2 kita disana. Bos aku yang anak dia blaja kat Mesir pon sampai na tempah jet peribadi g Mesir sebab flight anak die cancelled last minute & student sume kena tahan kat airport. First time aku rasa dia meroyan atas sebab yang munasabah. Kat Malaysia pulak dilanda musibah banjir, paling merisaukan kampung aku sendiri Johor yang paling terjejas teruk. Lagi2 Segamat, apalah khabar saudara2 disana agaknya... Sigemok da lama ta telefon, for the first time kitorang ingat die da berdikari. Skali tadi sgmk kol ckp MRSM die da berapa hari terputus bekalan air, jadi kantin ta dapat masak. Sob sob, sedey plak bila fikir sgmok ta makan. Terus berlesup parents kita ad-hock pegi tempat die tadi na bawak die balik. Bcos skola sgmok & segamat just 30mins drive away so skola sgmk pon terjejas akibat banjir. Kesian dia. Aku sepanjang hari duduk rumah, buat air. Mula2 orang cupcake, pastu org canopy, pastu org pelamin. Sume dtg uma discuss psl wedding along. Hadoiii. Tadi kitorg cupcake testing. Dia bawak sekotak. Plain cupcake, ari kejadian baru die frosting. Aku bantai makan choc moist je. Risau . Awak semua tolong doakan adik kita & sedara2 kita eyh. Thanks.Bye.

Nota kaki: Allah S.W.T berfirman, “Perempuan yang jahat untuk lelaki yang jahat dan lelaki yang jahat untuk perempuan yang jahat, perempuan yang baik untuk lelaki yang baik dan lelaki yang baik untuk perempuan yang baik.” (an-Nur':26) I know how i look like inside. Im clean & i deserve someone cleaner. Thanks to Allah for open my eyes :)

Wedding Bells Journey 3






Kita pergi tempah baju. Yang bestnyer, mak kita kata kain ni semua Puan Aryani sendiri yang tolong pilih. Puan Aryani ni tokey tudung Ariani, suami die uncle faroz, tokey Jakel. So dia la yang tolong pilih kain2 sume, dari baju bridesmaid, usherette, relatives & family kita. Berpapan-papan jugaklah ayah kita borong arituh. Puan Aryani pilih 3 potong kain yang SANGAT CANTIK untuk kami 3 beranak. Lace yang eksklusif ni die import 1 design, 1 je die bawak masuk Malaysia , sbb tula, baju kitorg 3 beranak ta sama, cuma warna je yang seakan-akan. Sebenarnya kita agak neves jugak sebab ni la FIRST TIME kita akan pakai baju semahal ini!!Dicampur dengan upah jahit designer yang bayarannya urut dada, kita rasa kita akan frame baju tu sbb kita lagi rela beli 2 BLACKBERRY dgn duit tu!!! Terima kasih dekat ayah kita yang bersungguh-sungguh belikan baju yang paling cantik untuk anak dia. Kan da cakap, ayah kita yang terbaik!! Kita pesan dengan ammar the designer suruh buat baju mak kita yang paling tercantik skali, siap kain gode-gode :)

Nota kaki: KITA CUTI SEMINGGU!!!!! YEAY!!!

Fish & Wedges

Pee-kaa-boo!!!! Lamanya kita ta masak.... Tu la kau sibuk memanjang, pijak dapur pon da ta sempat. Tapi memandangkan kecintaan terhadap dunia masakan ni mmg menebal pada tahap PASSION gils lah kan, so yeah!! Oke food blogging ni mmg dah jadi impian kita sejak dulu lagi cuma masa je yang ta mengizinkan. Lagi satu kita cuma akan food blog benda yang kita slalu masak n konfem sedap ikut anak tekak kita bukan main tangkap muat je. Uols bole review balik old post kita under category sabya kitchen, sume recipe kat situ adalah fav food kita. Kita suka masak sendiri benda yang kita suka makan :) Today, kita nak share resepi Fish&Wedges. Kalau awak na tau, kita suka makan WEDGES sama macam kita suka pakai WEDGES!!! Yes i dont wear heels :) So today, kita na share dgn awak camne na buat wedges sendiri kat rumah. Murah n Sedap!!!




Fish Batter :
Cod/ Dory/ Fillet/ Any White fish
Plain four Tepung gandum 2/5
Corn flour Tepung jagung 2/5
Rice flour/Potato flour Tepung beras/ Tepung Kentang 1/5 (ratio)
Salt Garam
Pepper Lada Sulah
1tbs of butter Margerin
1 egg Telur

Wedges batter :
Potato Kentang
Use the excessive fish batter & add on Guna lebihan batter ikan & campur
Paprika/Chilli powder Serbuk cili/paprika
coriander Ketumbar
cumin Jintan Putih
crushed garlic Bawang putih hancur

Tartar sauce:
Mayonaisse
Diced Onion
Lemon

Garlic butter sauce:
Garlic Spread
Butter
Buttermilk
*tossed on top of the fried fish Dicurah sedikit atas ikan yang dah digoreng, Alar macam kat manhattan fish market tu :)



Masukkan suma bahan untuk batter ikan & kacau. Letak air skit kalo pekat sangat. Ala macam na buat cekodok la ni :) Tepung tu tade sukatan tapi ikut ratio yang kita bagi tau. awak pandai2 la agak2. Tapi jangan derhaka dengan resepi, DAULAT nanti. Hehe. Kalau ader potato flour lagi bagus, crispy abes :) Kalau ikut omputeh, batter fish die biasanya letak beer sbb tu rangup. kita ta kan na letak beer pulak kan... Substitute nye letak 1 or 2 sudu butter. Because butter boleh rangupkan batter. ta caya cuba try. DIJAMIN!!


Ini la rupanya pas da kacau suku lipat lapan


Masukkan ikan kat Batter tadi pastu kacau. Kalau awak na tau white frozen fish ni murah je. Kalau beli kat Car4 or Tesco pon satu paket dalam 3 Slice ta sampai 4 hengget. Tapi kena basuh dengan lemon bersih2 utk hilang kan hanyir die. Pastu kena keringkan gils gils baru celup ke dalam batter. Make sure kering tau, kalau bole perah, perahlah. Pastu Goreng Time!!!


Lebihan batter ikan tadi kita guna untuk buat batter wedges. Masukkan suma bahan yang kita da tulis kat atas tu kat dalam batter ni. Memang batter wedges ni berempah skit baru sedap!! Kalau na cantik, letak serbuk kunyit sket baru cantik wedges awak. Wedges kita hodoh dan ta berseri sebab tade kaler. Tapi rasa die, komfem lagi sedap dari weges kepsi :) Kita tade serbuk cili/paprika so kita derhaka skit duk gunting2 la cili kering, na blend malas.


Oke sebelum awak lebur kentang ni, rebus dulu tau. Sebenarnya kalau awak ade deep fryer tayah rebus, sbb pressure cooker bole masak kentang keras ni. Kita tade deep fryer so kita rebus dulu kasi senang masak. Rebus dalam air letak garam sikit 8 minit camtu. Tapi sbnrnya kan kalau awak rebus dengan air garam dulu lagi sedap!! Seyes,sebab kita sebenarnya perasakan kentang tu. Kalo trus lebur goreng, nnt tawar cewer macam wedges kat kedai tu,lagi2 yang dipotong tebal, eeewww. Tapi kalo awak sejenis health conscious awak bole ignore garam :)


Mari main masak2.... KACAU KACAU. Ehh awak tau ta kentang ni sejenis makanan murah. Dengan RM4 awak bole dapat satu beg plastik penuh dgn kentang. Tapi kalo beli cheeesy wedges kat kepsi yg cuma ade 5 hiris kentang tu pon da na dekat rm5?? Kita dengar da ade orang jual cheese sauce skarang, so apalagi, try la buat wedges sendiri letak mayo & cheese sauce. Tadaaa. Senang!! Ta sampai 10mins pon buat sume ni & awak bole dapat 25 serving cheesy wedges :)


GORENG!!!! owh k, pas angkat je, kt tau2 dua slice dah kat dalam mulut. Ta reti sabar


Garlic butter sauce nila sbnrnya penyedap Fish&chips!! Kalau awak tade garlic spread just campur butter, crushed garlic sket & milk.Kalo ader buttermilk lagi sodap!!! masuk kan bahan ni sume kat microwave seminit, siap trus curah atas fried fish tadi. Heaven okeyh!!! Tartar sauce senang, campur je mayonaise dgn lemon. tambah relish & onion kalo na lagi2 lagi sedap


Indah rasa dari rupa, selamat mencuba :)

Random #12

Alright, s'been long since I've posted any photos, coz, Blogger's new picture uploading system's a bitch from hell.

First up, Snowflakes! I am officially no longer a Snowflakes virgin. :D

My friends who frequent the USJ area have been countless times, but my classes used to end early and i fly home immediately. But! I found out from Esther that a new franchise popped up in Kota Damansara and how awesome can that be!? I don't have to traipse all the way to fucking USJ and its hideous traffic jams.

Anyway the one in the picture is the... uh... Taro Ball Series, which i hated. To know why u must understand 2 things.
A: I've always hated pearls. Y'know pearls in bubble tea, pearls? They're annoyingly chewy and starchy and they stick to your teeth. 
B: I've always been a fan of yam / taro. Yam in steamboat. Divine. Oh ni. Divine. And back in Form 1 there was this Beijing / Shanghai restaurant in 1 Utama with this awesome yam paste cheese rice with pork. Holy fuck it was... Divine!

So when i heard taro balls i was overjoyed and imagined taro with its soft, fluffy and crumbly texture but shaped in little balls. Awesome~~~! And soaked in sugary solution. Hell yeah! But then i was outraged to find out that the fucking taro balls had the texture of pearls! Even chewier than pearls. Geram.

Besides that, everything else was perfect. The Taro Ball series came with a variety of combinations ranging from green beans, peanuts, red beans, REAL taro pieces, barley and so on, but all with hateful pearls. But the shopkeeper allowed me swap the pearls for taro pieces so i sought solace in that!

Another to-go bowl that i bought in Pavillion after my Pepsi interview. No friggin taro balls. 4 pieces of yam. Fantastic! This is from their soya ice series. Not too bad, the shaved ice had a light fragrant aroma of soya. I polished this off while i was stuck in horrendous Bkt Bintang traffic jam.

Pretty sky when i woke up. Picture doesn't do it justice, obviously.

Water melon with canned longan. I wouldn't call it a perfect match, but it sure as hell was delicious.


Satay Kajang, from Restoran Malaysia, a Chinese operated restaurant in Kajang. Absolutely divine satay. Divine. My last visit was a year ago, but the quality remains excellent and uncompromised. Succulent, meaty and fresh. 

The beef satay was tantalizingly tender. Y'know some satay places serve these disgustingly chewy beef satay? U have to practically tear it off the stick, and chew for another 30-45 secs and after a few sticks you end up with a sore jaw. 

Chicken was perfect too, without pieces of chicken skin. I think chicken skin in satays are a taste that i have yet to acquire and i doubt i would ever want to acquire a liking for pieces of foreskin-like abominations in my food.

Bright chrysanthemums that caught my eye while i was strolling thru the pasar pagi. The lady had a myriad of colours available so i picked the more unusual ones. White one was a last minute addition as, according to the vendor, 4 sticks of flower wasn't all that prosperous. Superstitious-nya... So i added 1 more. Put them in a vase in my temple. There are usually 2 vases there filled with yellow white and purple chrysanthemums. 

Alright. Last one.

I think the more appropriate words would be "No Dog-walking"? 

"No Stray Dog" is just dumb and ineffective because

1) Dogs who are led in by owners aren't strays. 
2) Stray dogs won't understand the sign anyway, not in a million years. 

Wedding Bells Journey 2

This is sooo last week. We went to survey the reception hall for my brother's wedding. I still do not intend to reveal the venue yet but what can i say it is a private place. The solemnization of the akad will be done in a beautiful mosque inside this private area as well. The ustaz were humorously said that he can arrange if we want the solemnization ceremony to be done on a pond just like a swimming pool solemnization that i saw at my neighbor wedding last 2 years. But we came out with a decision to proceed the akad in the mosque as it will be more blessed plus the mosque itself is beautiful indeed. I could conclude that the hall is very average size, not that big. Therefore we will rely more on few gazebo that will be set up right next to the hall. We tried our very best to treat our guest equally but after a long financial thought sadly only in the hall guests could enjoy dome while the rest having buffet. But no worries, food are all the same!! I do hope that nobody will feel offended as we have a long list of high profile VVIP'S that makes a total 600 of them and i cannot deny that we will placed them in the hall but please do not feel left out if you will be seated at the gazebo outside because we will make sure that the deco setting inside and outside of the hall will be the same, side doors will be open, and it is assessable for everybody to see the wedded and the event flow inside. We will try our very best to get a big projector to be placed at the corner of the gazebo for a better view on what's happening inside. And most importantly, why you should not felt left out is because i will be in-charge at the Gazebo outside so you should be HAPPY seeing me all the time :) Talk about accommodation, relatives from Johor & Melaka should not need to worries as we already booked some of the rooms inside this private place. And for our family itself, we were been given a huge bungalow to do the preparation. We will moved in to the bungalow a week prior to the event for the last preparation. This would be our temporary house and Relatives were expected to gathered here before the event. VENUE CHECKED!


This is soooo today. I didnt follow them to the store because hell yeah im working on Saturday. To make it even worse i went to work this morning by train. I beg your pardon, BY TRAIN. Can you believe that??? This is my first time taking train to KL alone... See im not a spoil brat. Im soo proud of my self. And my daddy soo proud of me :) Konon nak adventure but then im late to work due to the brilliant DELAY of the komuter. Thanks to it. grrrr. Nak balik rumah lepas keje tadi pulak 1jam stgh journey on the train je!!! Taubat tana naik lagi!!!But Monorail was very good. I wish MRT project in Malaysia could be set up sooner. I took MRT in Singapore before and it was awesome!! you dont need a car when you have MRT. FAST & ON-TIME & CHEAP & COMFORTABLE. Talking about MRT i just make frens with the Prasarana family. If you ought to know, Prasarana is the company that conquer the public transport field in Malaysia such as LRT, Monorail, Rapid and soon MRT. Recently i involved in a Merc Benz spare-part project in London together with Faizul Tan Sri Izzudin. His father is the founder of Prasarana. This is how i know them because of the business partnership. Tapi faizul tak hensem la. HEHE. His little brother sangat handsome. Baru abes SPM trus fly to London study Pilot. Tapi adik2 lah pulak. HEHE. Back to the picture, after a long tiring, exhausting journey on the train im home. Lapar Gile. Terus selongkar peti ais doraemon and Goreng Bihun campur Suun. Sedap!!! My family came back from Jakel, licin bihun goreng tu. Kan da cakap sedap!! Exploring what they buy in Jakel. 8 bags and its all the kain for our own family, bridesmaid, and vvip usherette. Untung sape jadi usherette ni, ayah kita siap belikan baju. For the 3 of us, the girls, mum bought us a very nice textile. I know my mum got taste. Current mood sungguh excited nak tempah baju besok & pakai!! And the boys just a normal plain textile. And of cos it is all in SILVER :) Ayah kenal dengan owner Jakel. dgr dapat 50% discount but still the total kaching$$$$$$ Ini baru baju family belum baju pengantin. Bole ta kalau kita tayah kawen, banyak pakai duit la......... *sigh. Eleh memang tade orang na kawen dengan kau pon!!

Swan

Question of the Day: Just how much are you willing to sacrifice to achieve (perceived) perfection?


Interesting, isn't it?

I just saw Black Swan yesterday and it was beautiful, seeing that it's ballet all... But in an eerie and grotesque kinda way.

Quick digression: Is it me or does Natalie Portman look a hell lot like Keira Knightley? OK did a quick google search, and a lot of people think so too. :D


Anyway, now, back to Black Swan. I think it raises the question "Just how much are you willing to sacrifice on your way to perfection?" Just how much of sanding off the rough edges is needed to truly achieve one's goals?

Like Nina Sayers, she sanded off her sanity, went completely off her rocker and that was when things started going bat crap crazy and the hallucinations came left right and centre. I think the same thing happened to Tony Leung when he took the role of a undercover cop in Infernal Affairs. Got too immersed in the role to give a flawless performance, but i guess it takes a toll on your mind and he started having breakdowns after filming.


Honestly... I dunno. I'm not ruthless enough to trample my family and friends to get whatever I want. Then again, i can't be too sure what exactly it is i want. Sigh... I'm confusing myself as usual.


I have to commend Natalie Portman's performance, though. But maybe because i like the whole goodie two shoes turning evil sorta theme. Her gradual descent into insanity was captivating, but... not as insane as i would like it to be.

Also, Lily, the other chick, didn't pose as much of a threat as i would have liked, i.e. she didn't actually usurp the Swan Queen crown; she was selected as the alternative. I mean if she backstabbed her way into the role with evil intentions, and Nina went all crazy because of it, it'll be more... dramatic.

All in all, a captivating movie. Sad. and Dark. And thought-provoking.

BUSY

Pagi-pagi lagi aku dah meroyan jem teruk gila kat Federal. Aku rasa 1 KL kot jem pagi ni sbb organiser bodoh mana la buat rehearsal Hari Wilayah pagi2 buta. Aku orang event, aku mmg cukup faham pasal rehearsal tapi here comes to the point that 7.00am-9.00am mmg peak hour org pegi keje, heavy traffic, logik ta kau tutup2 jalan time cenggini?? Rehearsal mmg perlu, tapi buat afta 9 ta bole ke?? Kalau diorang buat afta 9 mesti tade prob, tapi sbb dorg rehears wrong timing sampai kul 10.30 pon still jam lagi.... Menyusahkan org ramai kan. Aku paham diorang na full dress rehearsal timing according to the real event. Tapi Hari Wilayah Selasa kot, perlu ke tutup jalan hari ni?? Tapi hari ni okela, aku lambat stgh jam je. Last week, ader lori simen tumpah kat depan Menara TM, demmm 2jam aku stuck kat federal. Fes time masuk lambat. Jatuh reputasi aku. HAHA. Oke DATELINE pertama was a beautiful success comes with a beautiful eye-bag *blinking eyes. 200 letters out, and aku buat from A-Z. Sekarang kena follow up satu2. PENAT YANG AMAT. Sekian.

Weirdddd

OK the other day I was barred at the gym entrance by the barcode scanners (staff who scan your membership card barcodes and exchange it with towels). Apparently i had 1 month of outstanding payments for December. But they let me work out anyway as they're super flexible.

I called just now to check on my account and I'm now late for both Dec and Jan payments. Which is ridiculous as they auto-charge dad's credit card. Customer service said the fees are being billed to an RHB credit card that has expired back in June 2010.

Problem now. Dad says he has never signed up for an RHB credit card. Ever.

So who has been paying my gym membership fees all this while???

Stun!

I don't get startled easily. And my dad refuses to simply acknowledge that. He loves to hide behind doors with a sepulchral expression, and when i step in i'll come face-to-face with him and that's supposed to make me jump, outta my skin. Pah. My usual response would be.. wtf? why are u here? wanna scare me again leh!? Haha

Wutevs


Hari ni aku half day. Ptg baru masuk ofis. Masuk2 je makcik2 kat ofis tgh seronok bergosip. Aku masuk pukul 2ptg. Aku bajet dari pagi kot diorang mengumpat topik yang sama. Apalagi kalau bukan cerita hot hari ini berdasarkan keratan akhbar di atas. Aku mmg penah post pasal aku rasa hidup aku sama dengan cinta 3 segi diorang ni. Of cos la aku memegang watak the innocent cuteness Nora Danish kan. Aku tana komen papa. Tapi macam biasa aku berpegang pada "What goes around, comes around". Untuk Fasha Sandha & pompuan2 berperangai kampung macam dia tayah la na frust sangat sebab pompuan2 desperate cam korang hari ni break, blom sempat sedih, esok dah ade boyf baru. Klise, Apa na heran.

Nota Kaki: Kenapa ramai pompuan suka dengan lelaki tak hensem? And kenapa lelaki zaman sekarang semua perangai munafik?

Wedding Bells Journey

I took lotsa picca through the journey of this wedding bells but i dont intend to show it off here because of the suprised element. FYI this is not their wedding outfit but to kick the hint off this is the theme color of their wedding. We wanna choose a rare combination in the first place but it ended up that our choice coincidently similar to Johor royalties color . Navy Blue & Silver. I even talked to the canopy & decoration team myself on how the chair ribbon should be fold to blend in this color. Small things that counts aite. Noted that families are pleased to wear Silver. TQVM

One day..


One day you'll love me, the way I loved you. One day you'll think of me the way I thought of you. One day you'll cry for me, the way I cried for you. One day you'll want me, but when the time comes, I won't want you. -Gwen Stefani-
Pandai kan idola kita, cik Gwen buat quote, i always adore her from her fashion,music, personality, charisma to almost everything.


Gave you all I had, And you tossed it in the trash,
You tossed it in the trash, yes you did. -Bruno Mars-
Kita ta suka Bruno Mars sebab lagu dia semua Aww Aww romantic yet soo not realistic. Tapi kita suka lagu Grenade ni.

Interview

Phew. I've been crashing my way through a whole line-up of interviews and i'm on a roll.

Y'see. The thing about interviews is that the more you attend, the more... composed you get. A bit of practice makes perfect, but more like what doesn't kill me makes me stronger. 

I'm the type of person who learns a great deal from my experiences and failures. Something like that round Omnidroid thingy from The Incredibles.


Once the superheroes defeat him, he'll adapt and become stronger. And i was fortunate / unfortunate enough to attend my first failed interview at P&G last year. Man, that lady was tough-as-hell nuts, and i wasn't really prepared, and i blabbed in panic and was thoroughly humiliated.

And now, of course, i've bounced back. Quicker, smarter, sharper, and tougher than before! Nyahaha. 

After getting over the initial apprehension, interviews are pretty much easy. Just be honest, straightforward, and confident and there shouldn't be much of a problem.

Wednesday: Unilever for position of Customer & Market Insight Executive
Thursday: Alliance Bank for Personal Financial Consultant, but turns out to be Mortgage.
Friday: Data-Radius (authorized dealer of Digi & its multi-faceted mobile plans) for Corporate Sales Executive, which is jazzed up name for salesman
Monday: Permanis Sandilands (distributor and franchisee of Pepsi and etc) for Youth Marketing Executive.


My interview schedule. Interesting, ain't it? 4 working days in a row.

*Horror* During all of my interviews, i was on my way recovering from my bout of cough / flu / snot-phlegm congestion crap. My nose was constantly jammed with this wad of goo that required a stupendous nose-blow to get rid of. My throat was constantly itching to explode with a rumbling cough, spraying out globules of green and yellow phlegm, and it was just disgusting and uncomfortable.


Unilever interview came with a test showing me a table full of market share / market value growth figures and asking me which of their product categories were a) doing well b) not doing well c) worthy of funding d) in need of saving. 

While i was taken aback at the sudden onslaught of numbers, primarily due to my rustiness in marketing figures, i managed to decipher them and made my case eloquently. Interviewer was my would-be boss, with an impassive expression. 

I wasn't completely sure what type of candidates they were looking for in terms of ass-kissery, as some of the interview questions were presented in a way that allowed a lot of room for ass-kissing. Like, why Unilever? Why not Nestle? Or P&G? I could've mentioned the prowess of Unilever, and its global presence, and that it's a great starting point to a high-flying career in the FMCG industry given its strong brands bla bla bla and having a magnificent reputation in the industry yada yada. But... as my talent for ass-kissery is pretty much 0, and any sort of ass-kissing comments from me somehow magically turn insincere and sarcastic, i settled for a "well i saw your ad on jobstreet and i applied".

So i guess that's the weak point of my interview. lol! I guess it all depends.


Alliance Bank interview was just play play la... I knew i wouldn't want a career in a bank, but they asked me to come anyway so i thought, what the heck? The experience could be worth-while, aaaand i could buy St Cinnamon at Mid Valley. And then the lady came in and said i was actually interviewing for a mortgage job and i wanted to come flying out screaming coz a) i suck at persuasion b) i hate paper work c) i haven't got my own transport to go flying around pestering people to take loans. I was asked about my strengths and weaknesses and the giant interview cliche came smacking into my face. I forgot about the list of politically correct strengths and weaknesses i had in my mind. So i blabbered and ended up just staring at the interviewer. But i could detect that she had detected my lack of sharkiness needed for mortgage, and i wasn't really exuding rays of hopeful enthusiasm for the job anyway. So she just ended the interview and i skipped off to Mid Valley for some jalan jalan. =D

My most successful interview was with Data-Radius. I guess, because of its slightly smaller scale (less choosy), and that it was for a sales job. Or, a more derogatory word would be salesman. The office was split into 3 sections in Damansara Uptown. One was next to OCBC, on the frickin 3rd floor no less, with no elevators. Fuck. I heaved-and-hoed my way up only to be directed to cross over to another block on the first floor of the pan mee place. After filling up a form, i was then asked to ascend more stairs up to the 3rd floor. Forced workout... I can lose 5kilos in a month by just climbing those goddamned stairs.

Next interview on my list. Permanis Sandilands. Youth marketing executive, tasked to market the beverages to the youth market. Oh my goodness, such a fun job scope. I think this would be the most... interesting job among all of the above. I am hoping to fight tooth and nail for the position but the only drawback is that the headquarters is located in Bukit frickin Bintang. Nightmare-zone of all traffic jams. Will be popping over tomorrow. Will see how everything goes. And hopefully i don't get lost again.

Take time to realizes...


2 months ago, bubu was warded due to his major damage on the right cheek. A pregnant lady hit my bubu. It is a hit & run accident. I kept this to myself until today because im soo friggin scared that ayah will scold me. But what bugs me the most is when bubu is in pain it hurts me as well. Out of this gloomy incident, seeing me in sadness, this one guy stands for me. Confront the pregnant lady husband, fight for me, seek for the damage loss, accompany me day & night to the workshop, settling things, settling bills, bring bubu right back to me exactly in front of my doorstep in the same condition as if it was never accident happen before. Case settled. Nobody spotted it until today. Its like a skeleton in my closet. Accident was a terrible experience to be remembered. But for me, i will cherished this experience until forever. To be experience something with someone is priceless. We have go through ups & downs, thicks & thins together. I may put the biggest smile on my face, but deep inside only god knows how much i missed... Terribly missed... Someone that is not mine.

Nota Kaki: I passed my sup paper with flying colors. Alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah.

La La La, Hari hari Kerja....


Oke, berita buruk. Event Yayasan Kelantan tu ditangguh ke bulan May. Kalau ikut kontrak aku abes praktikal around 29 April, which means aku disuruh sambung sampai event abes!!!! DEM!!!! Nanti fazly & saiful da abes praktikal tinggal aku sorg jela kat ctu yg kne jadi punch bag dato'. *sigh. Tapi aku dgr ader budak intern baru na masuk nxt wk. Nama die hafiz, tp die bdk engin so die akan slalu ade kat site dr ofis. Anyways, Org tua tu layan aku baik hari ni, takut aku minta berenti la tu. Tula suka sgt maki hamun org, bila dah tade baru terasa kepentingannya. Kalau aku jd stay pon aku buat bkn sbb Dato' tp sebab aku rasa bertanggungjawab tunggu event tu sampai abes sbb aku yg handle from A-Z. Owh yarh pagi2 td time kat ofis aku dpt kol. Pelik, number 62 yg naik. Aku tau 65 Spore, 67 Brunei, 62 jakarta. Wahh da lame seyh org jakarta ta kol aku. Hye Adit, Hye Sara :) Rupanya Bimbo yang kol, tgh bercuti kat Jakarta. Tgh cari hot gurls wif hot curls & dimples & chemistry la tu. Oke tana bzbody. Wutever makes him happy :)

Anyways org tua tu siap blanje pizza arini. Tapi biasalah baik2 die pon dalam 1 hari mmg ta sah kalo ta meroyan maki2 orang. Ta paham aku. FYI die ni sume na spoonfeed. Sume bende na suh org buatkan. Sms pon mls, emel ape lg. Td die suh aku emel kawan cina die kat hong kong tanya khabar. Aku dgn ta knal sapa org tu, aku tulis je la. Skali die marah sbb aku tulis, "Dear Michelle, how are you doing, it has been a long time since i last i saw you". dato' mengamok ckp, apa awk tulis ni, saya baru jumpe die last week. Dlm ati aku, mana la aku tau mangkuk ayun, aku ta knal org tu, itu kawan kau, kalau susah sgt ko type jela sendiri. Dgn anak sendiri pon, PA yang kne typekan sms tny kabar. Ade byk cite klakar aku dgr psl sms/emel ni dr PA die. Kalau dgr cite abg despatch lagi kesian, patut keje diorg anta surat or brg je tp da jadi mcm org gaji dato'. Kne g pasar beli ikan sayur telur sume. HAHA. Later2 aku story

Hari ni ade kes, exec hartanah, cik hazira kena present pasal berjaya na freehold tanah kat bukit tinggi. Dato' suh aku berlakon jadi Pengarah PTG Pahang. Sebab nxt wk hazira kne convince org ni tuk dapatkan bukit tinggi tu dari pajakan 99tahun ke freehold (hak milik kekal). Org tua tu bising aku senyap je berlakon ta sungguh2. So aku geram, aku bahas la kat Msia ni ada law, bukit/gunung ta boleh diberikan pada org bkn bumiputra. Isu ni mmg sensitif. Ramai org marah gov kasi Genting kat Lim Goh tong & Bukit Tinggi kat Vincent Tan. Jadi sejak 2003, kjaan da bekukan lesen freehold. So macam mane kt convince pon mmg ta kan dapat. Berjaya na byr 25juta utk freehold ni, padahal keuntungan die beratus juta. Berbaloi ke gov senang2 na kasi tanah camtuh?? Terdiam org tua tuh!!! Geram aku!!! Aku dah cakap aku patut amek law...

Tgh kitorg berlakon tu tibe2 saiful masuk bilik dato' sambil menangis. Paklong die kne heart attack, tgh nazak. So die na mintak balik awal. Kesian die, kita ramai2 tlg doa utk pak long die eyh kawan2. Anyways Saiful ni paling baik la dlm byk2 boys kat sini. Selain fazly aku mmg paling rapat ngan die sbb meja ktorg sebelah menyebelah. But sorry girls, he is soo taken!!! Dem!!! hehe. Dalam ramai2 die sorang je yang aku tgk ta penah tinggal solat & die slalu tlg aku. Fazly pon slalu tlg aku tp fazly tlg ade makna. HAHA. Saiful ni dia lebih ikhlas la dlm berkawan and dia mmg syg gile dgn gurlf die sbb tu aku respect die. Da 8 thn dorg bercinta tanpa jemu. Susah hokeyh na cari lelaki camni zaman skrang. Yang tinggal skrg ni sumenye lelaki yang ta bole pakai. Wut to do, its either married or gay!!

Anyways, aku pon da bosan na cite pasal kerja yang sememangnya ta penah abes. HOT STORY OF THE WEEK, ABG AKU NA KAWEN BULAN MAC. Diorang tanya aku tema apa yg sesuai. Aku rasa aku na buat something yang VERY SIMPLE & SWEET. White, pink, purple, roses, candles, beads...Awwww... Okeyh aku plak yang excited. Okelah. Da ngantok. Till then. Bye.

Mintak sumbangan dana ratus-ratus ribu. Tadi aku kol MERCY, BAKTI, JKM, MITI, Istana Kelantan untuk dapatkan contact nama penyumbang2 dana individu mahupun badan korporat yang selalu involve dalam majlis amal. Banyak jugakla org kaya kat Mesia ni rupanya. Aku google la forbes richest msian man, Bapak Mizz Nina number yg ke berapa belas tah. Bos aku, Vincent Tan nombor 10. Bila aku tgk file donation history dasyat la dorg ni kalo bagi dana ta penah kurang dari 30k. Jadi kenapa masih ramai lagi orang susah kat Msia ni??? Orang kaya bawak2 la bantu orang yang susah ye... rezeki ni tuhan bagi ada bahagian2 nye. ta semua yang kita dapat tu mmg bahagian kita. Renung-renungkan.

Aku rasa aku da femes kat Pejabat Sultan Kelantan tu. Sehari 10x jugakla aku kol. Mesti dorg lega kan esok cuti tayah na angkat kol aku lagi. Abes tu cemana, kau tau la dato' aku tu kan ta abes2 meroyan. Push aku suh itu ini. So aku terpaksa la push balik kat Kelantan sana sebab dorg yg respon lambat. Tapi aku mmg panas la kadang2 ngan gomen ni, pukul 10 g minum, kul 12 mkn, kul 2 ta balik lg, skali lagi kol tgh solat, kul 5 da blk. Alih2 jumaat dorg da cuti??? Dah membawak ke isnin. Pastu keje sume tertangguh. At the end of the day, aku yg kne tadah telinga. Nasib baik s/u sulit tengku mahkota kelantan tu sungguh helpful, die banyak la tolong aku. At least dalam banyak2 manusia tu ada jugakla yang mmg na bekerja!! Yang penting dia masih muda remaja lagi you!!! Ta macam ade seorang kerabat yang namanya dirahsiakan, miang ya amat tapi input kosong. Nxt monday meeting ngan semua AJK Yayasan. Ta sure aku kena p Kelantan ke or dorg yg turun KL. High profile semua, datuk2 & kerabat. Takut aku.

Hari ni fazly & saiful dapat paycheck!!! Owh did i mention dorg ni intern tapi dorg da start sebulan in advance dari aku sbb fac bisnes prac 5 bulan. So dorg start dr Dec. Ak baru start Jan. Happy gile dorg dapat cek arini. Elaun tuk bulan Dec. Aku pon tumpang hepi. Patut paw dorg makan besar ni esok!!! Aku ckp ngan fazly, drp dato' na kasi 3k cr org tlg aku handle event ni baik bagi aku je. Dah sah2 aku sorg je yang handle event ni skrg. Tapi stresssssssssssss la.... serius kalau bg 5k pon aku tana. Ada sesape yg ade background event & jobless ta?????? Tolonglah saya............ Anyways, aku ada event na promote kat korang. Berjaya Founders Day, 26 Feb 2011 kat The Boulevard Times Square. Aku jual kupon die. Bole masuk theme park, bole shopping sakan, banyak games, live shows, local artist performance, and ade lucky draw jugak, grand prize dia MAZDA2. Kupon 1 booklet RM10 sahaja.Hasil jualan kupon 100% disalurkan ke badan amal. Berjaya ta amek 1sen pon tau. So kira berhibur sambil menderma. Rugi ta pegi.

11.1.2011


The beautifulness of todays date. Went to Puncak Alam dis morning for thesis research. Met the rest of my ex-classmate. Catch-up things. Everyone was doing fine except Mimi. She's having a real trouble with the hotel she do intern with. Pity her. My advisor lecturer debated with my company supervisor. I was stuck in the middle. Listening to the intense phone conversation. Im tired of being a people pleaser. I work 6 days a week,11hrs per day and not to mention my weekend assignment. Cant they tolerate of excusing me meeting my lecturer advisor once a week, half day leave to be exact?? Likewise today, im on leave but still first thing in the morning im settling dato's Citibank Visa & Mastercard prob and going thru Shashi business proposal. I contentedly carry my responsibility day & night but all i need is half day excuse for my research thesis. And this subject carry me 7 credit hour. I hope dato' could understand my situation. I think he would not :( Yes he is :) Heck no :( Argh like wutever :/ Im loving this job. I have the best clique ever. All the kakaks who always back me up whenever dato' is in the bad mood and all the abangs who always protect me like their own baby sister. And not to forget my bunch of fav boys, saiful, fazly, azrul, & helmi. They always RAWK my day!!!! Anyways working life is not that bad ;) Its better to slave down yourself with tones of work than sitting down at one corner and do a pathetic circle. You asked me what went wrong, I smiled and said nothing, when you turned around, a tear came down and I whispered to myself, everything is... :'(

Allergy

Suffered a major prawn allergy reaction just now... and let's just say it wasn't one of the best experiences one would want to have.

I've always had a mild allergy to prawns, and the resultant effect of a quick taste ranges from swollen lips, even more swollen lips, and some itchy esophagus (fucking uncomfortable). But circumstances were a little more fuddled today as i was having sore throat + cough + flu (the type with horrendous green cendol-like snot and mucus) so i took a Mucinex expectorant to help clear the incredibly viscous nasal goo.

Now due to my sore throat and general discomfort within my oral orifice i let me guard down and polished off a plate of mum's incredibly delicious prawns. Polished as in sitting the scrumptious prawns in my mouth and allowing the fantastic taste envelop my tastebuds.. Ahhh~!

And once i'd finished i knew something was off, as my throat started feeling strange and itchy and i lost my voice. After a few moments i could feel a part of my throat swollen and whenever i gulped or swallowed anything there was some serious chafing against the back of my throat.

AND the expectorant chose that precise moment to kick into effect, sending my coughing reflexes into overdrive to expel phlegm. I couldn't swallow without some major friction, and my chest was heaving from my attempts to suppress my cough, and that was torture.

Each raspy cough sent spasms of pain to my lungs, which led to more coughing, and consequently more pain and it was all i could do to stop the coughs. 

Mum was stunned and she flew us over to Dr Teh at Uptown, as it was the nearest practice she knew. I walked into the clinic, wheezing like mad and startling this patient who was paying for her prescription. 

So now, i'm back home after popping some anti-histamines, steroid pills and inhaling a bunch of steroids. My throat is raw from the chafing, but am feeling a whole lot better now. Nose is clear, chest no longer throbbing. I have with me a prescription of throat spray, a Turbohaler, some anti-histamines and more steroids. Life is good, huh.

All in all quite a new experience, albeit a bad one. But at least i know what to expect next time. Am thankful,and lucky to have survived. A tad dramatic but at least my allergy was a mild one. According to Dr T, severely allergic patients could have their entire face swell up like a bee hive, trachea closed up and boom! You're dead..


P.S. Never touch prawns ever again.

T_T

Have come to sinking realization that i am now, more than ever, stupid. 

OK la not to say completely retarded, but I am mortified to find out that i flunked the IBM aptitude test. I failed an aptitude test. And a relatively un-brain-teasing one at that. MCB!

Y'see the test has 3 parts A matrix B number sequence and C maths problems. A was an unmitigated disaster as I couldn't picture the shifting of numbers and symbols within a 5x5 bingo matrix. Imagine changing all # symbols into B, and reversing rows and columns and i saw nothing but stars. AND they didn't let us conteng their question paper.

Then again i suspect it is also a hidden indirect test of split-second adaptability, like when the going gets tough, the tough fucks the rules and contengs on the question paper. Damn, i'm an idiot.

B number sequence was piece of deliciously iced cupcake.

Now C is where the stupidity comes in. It's been frickin years since i last used algebras and fractions and what not so didn't know which to use to solve the damn problems.

Sigh.

Anyway i have got another interview tomorrow with Unilever. Hopefully i don't screw it up.

Kosong


Gambar hiasan. Setiap pagi alarm bunyi. Snooze 3x. Macam biasa, the third time baru aku matikan. Dengan mata separuh bukak. Nampak ada msg. Teruja. Nampak sgt da lame tade org msg kau. Baca. Senyum. Aku rindu dia. Tak sangka dia ada masa nak msg kawan lama yang hodoh ni. Mandi. Sarung baju. Siap-siap. 8.15am baru gerak. Teringat masa first day pukul 7am dah kuar rumah. Makin lama makin lambat kau pegi keje. Tapi so far benchmark pukul 9pg punch card ta pernah tersasar. Bangga sekejap. Masuk ofis terus telefon org kelantan lagi untuk follow up. Ada 1 kerabat ni gatal yang amat. Ta kesahla kau tengku ke raja ke apa, kalau bukan sebab keje ta ingin aku na kol kau in the first place. Sumpah mual. Siapkan proposal taiwan. Shashi puji. Lega, ta sia2 ta tdo semalaman. Round applause untuk diri sendiri. Call director Hello On Two mintak slot. Translate eng document lagi. Aku dah macam walking dictionary kat sini. Pegi lunch. Sumenye smoking. Pening. Satu meja 5 org laki smoke, aku tukang sedut asap je. Ini kalau aku kne kanser paru-paru memang aku saman sekoq2. Oke mamat tu sume da menyampah dengar aku berleter. Diam. Balas msg pagi td. Die reply laju. Senyum. Ta sangka die ader international prepaid. Masuk keje balik. Fazly asyik kacau aku buat keje. Pastu abg faizul tease die "tangan tu jauh sikit fazly, tangan tu jauh sikit.." Khairul pulak ckp, "fazly kalau dah jumpa pompuan, ta ingat kawan". Mengeluh sekejap. Dari dulu aku kalau kawan ngan laki single mesti kne bahan gosip liar. Dari zaman sekolah. Cukup lali. Tadi kitorg download lagu ana rafalli. Dan-dan semangat AJL. Dasyat arr company ni, 4shared pon die filtered, si fazly ni ajar aku camne na bkk. Banyak step. Malas. Tapi sumpah internet sini laju. Download movie pon aku rasa masak megi lagi lama.Mmg terbaik. Tapi step untuk access filtered web ni yang leceh. jadi malas. Aku dapat cuti esok. Jumpa advisor research. Ingat merdeka. Tiba before balik dapat lagi 1 projek. MEMANG DENGKI TAU DIORANG NIH. Proposal starbucks nak bukak first drive thru outlet die kat Malaysia. Menarik bukan?? Tapi nak make the dreams come true, akulah yang azab. Tadi ader bekas intern datang melawat. Baru grad thn lepas. Die tgh tunggu kwn so ktorg borak jap. Die cite, untung kerja ngan berjaya ni, kalau keluar LAKU. Wallahualam aku harap betul lah kan. Die kate dulu pas abes intern kuar dari Berjaya je, 20 offer die dapat. Aku tanya die keje ape skrg. Die ckp Sales Manager kat GSC. Tumpang bangga wpun aku ta kenal die. Esok dato' masuk ofis. Dah 4 hari die kat Macau. Oke lega esok aku cuti. Tapi hari2 mendatang ni tadah telinga jela. Sumpah die kuat berleter. Shashi bagi aku 1 business proposal suruh tolong check kalau ade yg salah. Pelik aku, sapa exec skarang, die ke aku?? Kenapa aku yang kena check keja die?? Die kata proposal aku bagus. Aku rasa aku hentam je. Frankly speaking aku ta penah blaja buat proposal secara formal. Cuma masa form6 kita blaja buat bisnes proposal secara theory. Tahla, die insisted so aku bawak balik jela check kat ruma. Macam biasa dorg ajak aku lepak2 dulu before balik. Aku dah, wth korang ta penat ke???? Hari2 balik malam, ta paham aku mcmane dorg larat na lepak minum lagi. Aku kalau bole ta sabar na balik peluk pingu & katil. Dorg bole bersosial lagi.. Fazly kate sume org da start suke aku. Yela sebab aku buat keje macam org tade life. Siang malam, 7 hari seminggu. Aku cakap aku mmg tade life. Kerja tulah hidup aku. Dato' offer gaji basic 3k kalau aku dpt absorb afta internship. Dalam dilema aku termenung panjang...... Inilah yang aku na selama ni, keje bagus, gaji banyak,rumah, kereta, shopping... Aku ada semua... tapi kenapa jauh didalam aku rasa kosong...

Nota kaki : Na pegi nangis kat bucu katil sorang2...

What goes around, comes around...


Hot news of the week, Nabil was dumped by Lofa. A glance info, Nabil is my old fren. I knew him since he was nobody. We were quite close back then because he dated my gff, Aimi for 4 years. After high school, he broaden his career and got fame from day to day. He dumped my gff. I think most of the commercial break or advertisment in Malaysia used his cute face. Yes, he is the popular Malaysia model. I hate him to the core at that point of time until to the stage where i change to other station whenever his face appears on tv. But i surrender when he appears exactly in everything from digi, pizza hut, vitagen, twisties, petronas, long lists... I just cant believe wut had he done to my beautiful gff, Aimi. He crushed her heart into brittles. Just bcos of that biyotch. I know Nabil is a very nice guy.. Last time, whenever we lepak makan or muvie nabil mesti akan pegi surau solat when the time comes, i dunno how on earth he can fall into that biyotch. Today remarks everything, Lofa dumped him exactly after she won the Dewi Remaja 2010 Title. I guess what goes around comes around.... I dont blame Nabil, we are still friends... Im glad that he finally realizes yang mana kaca yang mana permata. I have gone through this bullshit for soo many times, but its pathetic to see there are still people out there who still take things for granted and have the heart to hurt others. But no worries, buat baik dibalas baik. Buat jahat tuhan sajalah yang balas. Tuhan itu Maha Adil. AMIN.

Nota kaki:Today Nabil tweets, "I rather date a not so good looking girl with a beautiful heart than a beautiful girl who have a dark heart." Yeah, Gimme 10 BRO!!!

Sweet

Cow, Brown Bear, Xtine, Dinghy, Nico and I traipsed over to Vid Malley today to meet Miss Moon. I am a tad indignant as I've previously asked for a meet up with the former 5, and their schedules seemed to magically clash. Now they can miraculously get together for the madame.. sigh, such injustice.

We saw Angelina Jolie (womb / vagina of the world)'s The Tourist and... barf! That's all it deserves. OK and maybe some mention of the beautiful scenery.


Next stop was some dessert sampling at Delicious.

Dessert at Delicious is fantastic. I hate that i'm attracted to its dessert display cooler, peering at it like a kid at a candy store.

We shared:
  • Apple Blackberry Crumble
  • Walnut Brownie with Chocolate Sauce
  • Scones with Clotted Cream and fruit preserve
  • Macadamia Cheesecake with caramel and macadamia brittle
The first two came a la mode and were excellent as uzh, especially the brownie, oh my...
Scones sucked bad as they replaced their fluffy cream with packaged clotted cream (y'know like the foil-sealed individual-packed butter used by airlines?) that has lost its molecular integrity during the course of shipment and resembled yellow crumbly butter all stuck to the bottom of the container. Nasty..

Macadamia cheesecake certainly looked magnificent as i was goggling at it once i came in. Macadamia brittle!! Divine. I love nuts, and nut brittle. But the cheesecake base had a slightly salty tinge that i didn't like.

Oh and the manager was kind enough to serve us a basket of complimentary fries with some sorta creamy dip. Delicious indeed. :)

Minggu Pertama...


Dear diary, internship has been really tiring.... But it has been a real fun as i learn A LOT, read my lips ALOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTT!! The workloads does not broad to specific subject, yet it involves many different sector because of their countless baby business. Refer to the second picture to see their business. To accomplished the tasks given, i had to gain knowledge and read a lot because they assumed me to know EVERYTHING. It does not close to double or triple degree, but the scope of job required me to like having 10 degrees when my background is completely majoring in Event Management only.

Somehow i have this handsome people around to keep me going. HAHA they have been a real help, since im the only girl in the office i was treated like a baby sister most of the time. Nobody dare to bully fragile me. And i have the veto power to decide where we were having lunch everyday. But basically thou im a girl, i was appointed as the company PR because among the boys i am the only one who have the public relation background. Therefore i go out more often then the boys. The boys stay at the office most of the time doing accounts, finance & admins or involve in Berjaya Land for construction. I did take this PR subject back then, but to be a PR practitioner, trust me its not an easy task...

Well my first week was Phewww!!! *speechless. But the only best part is i got discount and subsidized whenever i want to eat in any Berjaya F&B. (kenny rogers, papa johns, wendy, krispy kreme, starbucks, rasa utara, etc) Heaven kan!!!! Pasal makan, hidup je kau!! Besides the monthly allowances, i get the travel claim-age, and topup claim every month. The pathetic part is, company kasi topup, kredit dah banyak tapi kau tatau na kol sape... sob sob.. Recap

Day 2: Pagi aku buat proposal pengecualian cukai untuk table buyer Majlis Santapan Malam Sempena Pelancaran Yayasan Kelantan. Then tghri lunch kat Keepsi, teringat dulu kalau ta abes makan, hasrul & hafiz slalu kne paksa ngan aku... skrg fazly, saiful & azrul yg kne jadi tong sampah. have to mention aku hari2 lunch dgn diorang ni. Diorang intern jugak, kwn aku kat sini, sume budak UiTM tapi kos laen2. Petang ikut PR exec, Encik taufiq pegi MPAJ. Blaja camna na jumpa org. Kes company kena saman 11k, nego2 skit turun terus ke RM500. Bukan rasuah ye, tapi ini namanya PR practices. Sumpah Pengarah MPAJ ni muda & hensem gila!!!! Die bg nasihat kalau pas abes internship tana keje ngan Berjaya, try la Bank Rakyat sane bonus 9 bulan. Skrg ramai org keje Petronas lari msk Bank rakyat. Siap bagi aku tips, die kate Bank Rakyat tu islamik sket so kalo g interview nnt pakai baju kurung tudung pin depan, kne jadi makcik baru dorg amek!! HAHA terkekek aku gelak kat situ. Disebabkan die hensem, aku na dengar la ckp die. HEHE. Seyes envy die, muda2 lagi dah jadi BOS BESAR kat MPAJ tu. Pastu pg pejabat tanah, sebab kita nak pajak dewan LJT so that sesapa yg sewa dewan tu kena hire us as event consultant. Oke seriyus kejam, aku diberi pendedahan sehari je untuk blaja, esoknya disuruh settle projek FRIM sendiri

Day 3: Sambung buat proposal pengecualian cukai & kena translate banyak dokumen syarikat dari eng ke bm sebab na send kat gomen. Sumpah upside down otak aku. Kalau suruh translate eng, aku oke, tapi ble suh translate bm sumpah dungu. Eng aku tadela terer sgt tapi sepanjang hidup aku ta penah dpt English, B. and aku ta penah dapat BM, A. SPM pon BM aku dpt B and Eng aku dpt A. Pelik tapi benar. Oke yang paling kejam arini, baru hari ketiga bekerja aku da disuruh settle projek SORANG2. Pegi FRIM and dapatkan tender cafe. Sumpah satu malam aku ta tdo mlm sebelumnya sebab takut yang amat. Diulangi dato' suruh aku pegi sorang2 handle benda ni. GILA. aku baru 3 hari kot masuk company ni. So lepas segala siasatan dijalankan, FRIM bukanlah pemilik cafe tersebut and tade kepentingan pon sbb kafe tu hak milik sepenuhnya CEO sebuah company. Solution taley kaco. Projek settle.

Day 4: Arini aku kne kol sume AJK Yayasan Kelantan untuk follow-up. Memandangkan event ni involve sultan & kerabat so banyak pihak istana yang terlibat. Dari ketua istiadat, datuk pengelola istana, s/u sulit tengku mahkota .. haizz sumela... Sorang2 aku kol... Macam2 ragam.. Sumpah aku kalo loghat kelantan ni mmg FAILED. Jadi byk misscommunication disitu. Kalo PA pompuan biasanya oke, dorg ckp bahasa melayu standard tp kalo PA lelaki angkat tepon Perghhhhh loghat kelantan pekat na mampus, sumpah aku ta paham!!!! Patutlah aku mmg ta penah berkenan ngan mamat kelantan.. haha... Arini paling lawak la ktorg p lunch kat mamak. Dorg kata NGK kat sini sedap. Aku, fazly, & azrul mkn NGK. Saiful mkn megi goreng. Mamak ni pon kiralah pastu selit kertas. Pastu fazly ckp nape aku punya mhl sgt sampai rm7 padahal die order lg mcm2 dengan telor dadar n papadom nye lg tapi die punya bil lagi murah dari aku. So azrul pon panggil ane tu. Berapi la fazly berhujah kat ane tu nape aku punya mahal sgt.... Yela budak finance kan.. Pastu ane tu amek kertas fazly n tambah lg rm1 pastu ane kate sory die slh kira fazly punye bkn aku punya. die lupa na kira telur & papadom fazly sbb tu pelik fazly punye lg murah dr aku yg order nasi sesaje ni. Muka sentap je fazly. HAHAHA aku ngan saiful da gelak guling2... Fazly: "i na tlg u, i plak yg kne tmbh bil????? DEM!!" Hahaha sumpah lawak!!

Day 5: Dato' pegi Macau 3 hari... Best, tade org na membebel!!!! Arini kol RTM sbb bos aku na masuk slot rancangan Hello on 2 untuk promote Berjaya Founders Day yg kitorg akan buat kat Cosmo World, Times Square Febuari nnt. . Pastu buat proposal memohon sumbangan dana untuk pembinaan Universiti al-Azhar. Ini lagi 1 keje GILA. Diorg na suh aku cari USD10 juta. Buat proposal anta surat kat sume badan swasta & korporat mintak sumbangan sbb universiti ni wakaf. Owh yarh sedikit info, Universiti Al-Azhar dekat Malaysia ni cwgn pertama yg dibuka di luar Mesir. Diorg na bukak kat Negri Sembilan. Agak serabut jugakla pk psl projek ni, tp tapela nnt bile da tua da jadi nenek bole cite kat cucu-cucu.... dulu, nenekla yg buat proposal pembinaan Universiti Al-Azhar utk dibuka kat Msia tu. Hari ni BOD ade meeting.. lama gile, kul 8mlm pon ta abes2 lg... kekdahnya kalo bos ta blk, ta kan kau na berlesup balik kan... So ktorg duk main telepon. Kenekan azrul yg time tu tgh keje kat bilik lain. Jahat gila la Helmi menyamar jadi client. Si azrul ni bodo2 je jawab sume soalan. Pastu fazly plak kenekan azrul. Si Azrul ni pon bole ta pasan suara fazly. Tapi paling lawak semalam la, Azrul pg curi tulang hisap rokok kat tangga. Pastu Khairul, telepon hp die menyamar jadi Dato' yang tengah marah2. Berpeluh-peluh Azrul lari masuk ofis bwk fail. Mana die kutip fail tu pon aku tataula.. Hahaha sumpah lawak, suma kepala da masuk air longkang yang ade keladak hijau tu. Hijau tape jgn kuning. HEHE

Day 6: Hari ni sabtu tapi kne keje jugak... kata half day tp kul 4 baru kasi ktorg blk :( Nasib bek bos banje mkn Kenny Rogers lunch tadi. Si saiful kul 3 da cabut sbb ade date ngan gurlfren die. Azrul pon sama ta sabar na balik jumpa bini. So tinggal aku ngan fazly yg kne buat 5S. Then pas balik ktorg jalan2 kat Times Square jap, fazly teman aku cari port murah tuk parking next week... Fazly ajak aku jalan2 sbb die tau aku stress, proposal pengecualian cukai ta abes lagi, Shashi da kol suh buat satu proposal baru. Dato' na tgk isnin. Meroyan la aku kne bawak balik keje type kat ruma. By the time im typing this its already Sunday Morning. Sepanjang malam aku ta tido, menaip. Makin susah ble aku kne start membaca dari A-Z sbb ini bukan bidang aku & aku start dari zero. Proposal pasal permohonan utk dapatkan kuota import (AP) utk bwk hidupan akuatik dari Taiwan ke Malaysia. Ikutkan hati, senin nnt baru aku buat tp memikirkan tanggungjawab & aku dapat ELAUN utk sume ni, aku knela buat... ta kan na mkn gaji buta pulak kan. Lagipon tapela, aku kan tade life. Bila banyak keje ta sempat na teringat psl bende2 silam yang sungguh menyakitkan hati. Mungkin kesibukan adalah solusi yang terbaik buat masa ini :)

Nota Kaki: I HAVE NO WEEKEND. TQVM
