Over the week

Taa..daaa...my winning cheque was on my hand now ..yeah not too much or little at least this is the sum of lucky..got to show it off a bit...hahaha..at least Brandon is envy very much on it..and blamming that y MYFM not call him....I faster snap it down before I slot in into the fast cheque machine...the GDex man sent this document to me by the 3rd attempt, as I put my home address for postal. Finally it reach me on Saturday morning at office. So happy coz it really reach me and it is true one!

RM1400!...Wahaha..

In the big a-bit-winkle-A4 size envelope, 2 things inside, the cheque and the 2 printed pages of rules and regulation. The most important highlighted one are upon receiving this cheque in 240 days, you are not allow to participate in any MYFM call-in game. By receiving the sum, also need to inform them that i have collected the cheque, by fax them back the letter of acknowledge. All this I done...

My funny appetite aft get pregnant hav been up n down...sometime can eat, sometime cannot. My eating portion totally change. Pity Brandon have to b my 'food bandaraya' to take all my can't finish portion. My eating habit totally change now. Normally i can finish up my plate of food in clean, now i only can take in half, sometime not even half. Every night without change I will drink a glass of milk before sleep. Hav been taking 3 type of supplement to keep the baby n myself in health. Those supplement really helps. At least I won't feel tired during daytime. My weight slightly gone down a bit n hopefully it will back to normal aft the 3rd month. Currently still able to fit my normal suit, I dun plan to buy any maternity wear so soon. Wait until my body hav great changes first...today my fren - Karen email me her pregnant belly, it was so great and amazing to wacth her belly growth on week 24, 28, 32 and week 33....wow..feel great for her to become mummy real soon and the baby is getting bigger. She is having a boy.

Now Brandon is more excited than any other things...he sayang my baby inside more than me....asking me to eat more, eat n dun eat that...etc...but the things is my appetite can't take much now..the importance will go more to baby now...by eating anything in for him is all deliver to my bb. Now I try not to take heavy things and walk a lot..need more rest as this is the 'fragile' stage for carry a baby. My expected delivery date is 31st May..a Gemini ohh..

Many things need to learn now...and now i listen to many mummy experience n story....Since i need more rest, guess this weekend my Ipoh cousin's wedding I couldn't attend, coz Brandon dun wan me to b travel far and get tired, but we need to back to Seremban, his grandpa house for his 97 years old birthday...

ok...more updates later...10pm is my sleeping time now...

Lil one

Went to the maternity clinic at Pantai Cheras hospital to do my first check up. Refer to a doctor recommended by my cousin claimed to be very good. Since no other recommendation and the hospital is the nearest one so we went there. The doctor known to be very famous in the hospital for maternity. Went into the clinic ward registered, wait for a while then my turn, the doctor didn’t talk much to me. After some question on my body changes, then used ultra sound to scan my tummy, can see the lil one inside, 6 weeks old, 1 inch big only, start to have heart beat and it healthy grow. Dunno whether this is the first time or wat, I dun not hav much question to ask yet. Doctor also didn’t giv much advise, took some vitamin pills then went back. The next check up would b 3 weeks later. Not even spend 20 minutes there. Very fast.

These few days hav some appetite to eat, but not took much also, body start to hav some changes and I got to take cake much from now on. Very particular on the food I eat. Now what I like to eat only soup n chicken rice. Others seem not so favour. Brandon hav stop me from taking many food n drink n doing this n that. Quite stressful also. Guess I got to tahan myself from that for 9 months long…need to sacrifice..Doctor advised me to start drinking Anmum milk powder. So I bought one yesterday n start drink it today. Taste not so nice..not really like to drink, because of the taste.

Have been finding out more from frens about maternity period. Talk about the doctor, one of them do not hav good comment on my doctor, another one has no comment. Consider changing doctor n the anmum milk powder too..got to start reading maternity magazines now to know more about it…

Going to step into another level now.

Unexpected things happen

Over the weekend, the foreign news are about Bali being bomb by terrorist and what so terrible was that 2 Malaysians are involved at the back of the planning. These make me so sad in the morning of Sunday when I receive the news and saw the beautiful island being destroyed. Moreover I just came back exactly 2 weeks ago. Everyday I kept close to the news reported abt the place now, the number of tourists and the local ppl dead is still increasing. When I was there, I visited the monument and the exact place of being bomb on 12th Oct. 2002. It is just so sad to stand in front of the monument reading the 202 peoples name stamped on the wall and opposite of it is an empty land lot, which the pub being bomb located last time. This time the names not sure where they going to continue the dead name list or build a new one. Imagine 3 years bomb twice in the same area, I dun think tourist need to think twice before they go. A beautiful island who very much depend in the tourism industry, this time dunno how long they need to bring up the island n to give confident to tourist back for visiting. From the news, Kuta now is no longer alive like the time I was there. I so miss the place. Now the airport is pack with tourist who urge to back home. Why? Why?? this bad terrorist wan to destroy the country n grabs away the life? 911 incident and bombing here n there.


Monument crafted with 202 ppl who died on 12 Oct.2002


The exact pub location being bomb ago

Now Thailand famous tourist spot like Phuket, Pattaya and Bangkok are keep alert of the bomb incident happened to them.

Have been thinking of quit Fitness lately, due to wan to hav more time at home. Lately not frequent go for gym also, go also only for class. But not take action to ask for quit yet, coz feel missing it, if just quit like tat…so just still hold on for doing so.


Over the weekend, not quite feeling well and hav very weird digestion feel. Every time aft meal feeling uncomfortable and sometimes not feeling wan to eat. Must have something wrong, but this not make me sick at all. Suspected that my menstrual hav due and have this kind of feeling, so I went and bought the family planning kid to test on. The result is positive. I was so surprise n happy to read the tester shows 2 lined. I think is 99% accurate. I haven’t go to see doctor to prove it yet. Guess will b going for check up aft my FIL back from holiday (again…). These few days feel tired only and eat not much only hav porridge, others things dun feel wan to eat, so serious that even I saw the TV show delicious food I also hav vomit feel.


So, now I think i got reason to ask me quit fitness.

Gain more

Have been thinking about making money lately. Yes, although now not lack of anything for living, but since still young no harm to gain more extra income and also gain experience. Brandon’s fren hav approach him in Lampe Berger and 1901 Hotdog franchise business. He still looking into it, but for LB we dun think to run it and has been trying very hard to reject his good fren invitation for the business preview. For myself, I’m pretty interested joining Shirlyn in making crystal accessories.

I wan to look for some business, which can do at my own pace and not required tight deadline. Shirlyn know about it, but we still haven’t really sit down n face to face discuss about it. Brandon fully supports me in doing it. I hope can get it starts soon, at least learn how to make the accessories first before any others. Now need to wait for Shirlyn when she is free to teach me.

Always see those who selling hawkers food very good in business. And hav been roughly calculating their income “daily income x by month” by selling a bowl of mee lets say.., some are having better income than a manager level / white collar. Anyway they hav been putting a lot of effort to gain the successful, is worthwhile. See ppl doing good but dunno how much I can handle if I were them.

Met after long time

Been attending 2 school frens wedding over the weekend. Very great to met some of them aft leaving school for 8 years. Well, some kind of not so closed feeling is there, cause some are merely schoolmate not tat keep in touch that kind, only know their names. Looking at each other the look doen't hav much changes, perhaps some status changed, some have been a mum, a wife and some are married soon. Very happy to see my fren one by one tied the knot, I'm counting wit one of my classmate. For TPian this year have 6 couples married, this including me.

For those with some contact once a while, we still able to chit-chat a lot, but for those not so closed, we only smile at each other :)

Bali Island



Thought I will get tanned during the trip, in fact not, coz do not hav enough time to stay at the beach.

Place visited: Batik printing house, Ubud wood art & woodcraft market, silver and gold market, Gua Lawah (bat caves), Monkey Forest, Tanah Lot, parasailing at Nusa Dua beach, Mt. Kintamani – Besakih mother temple, Mt. Bratan – lake temple

Weather: 29’C-32’C (sunset at 6.30pm, sunrise at 6am)

Money spend: RM1300 – 3,263,000rp. Free and easy trip tend to use more money than the tour lead trip.

Other activity: Spa (Balinese full body massage, body scrub, yogurt rub, flower bath, foot massage and facial wash), only RM145 (tax include..good! ..cheap too!), Kecak Dance - a dance without music, they make the performer make sound by themselve. This is dance for they praying ceremony.

Food: Basically the food still ok, mostly not spicy, rice still the main course. Popular with seafood at Jimbaran, lunch buffet facing the Mt. Batur and on the other day facing the lake at Mt. Bratan. Very cheap lunch buffet only RM 20+ per pax. Every restaurant charge different tax some 10 %, some 15%, some no tax. Better ask before u place ur order.

People, Culture & Nation: A country for holiday and relaxation with beautiful sun and Indian Ocean. Tourist mainly came from Australia, Europe and Japan. 7 aircraft touch down at Ngurah Rai airport within 2 hours. Can see that this country is brought up by the tourist. A very strong religious island, everywhere can see the stone craft of their God and they see praying is important than any other things. Many ppl there selling and making stone craft and wood crafting of anything, from furniture, god faces, human, animal…etc... No doubt their crafting work are fine. Almost the small village main activity is crafting. Their Bahasa speaking is slightly different than us. Some Bahasa term they not able to understand ours one. At tourist spot, those business ppl can speak Japanese too. Their attitude are quite kind and well manner. Their building not taller than a coconut tree, believe that it will be safe from disaster. No highway or toll. All roads are small and narrow, but their driving still is very good. Hardly found broken and old vehicle. Infrastructure is not that well. Taxi only go round the city area, outskirt they dun go. That’s why must hire a tour guide to bring you go around. Some young kids who not afford to go to school they worked in the temple. They more willing to work then study. Can’t see any beggar on the street or small villages.

Will upload more pic in my album soon.

Bali preparation

Tomolo we will be off to the beautiful Bali island. Since last week, Brandon have been busy digging out all the Bali info, place of interest and what to do..from Internet and some print info we got from my cousin...free and easy with planning is good, so that no need to search during we are there, directly we follow the itenery which set, make sure we really spend the time valuably and can visit more places. Checking from the list we have, the place we stay have lots of restaurant, nightlife and bars, shopping spots and spa. Basically our plan have covered all these. The only thing we not have enough time is to visit more places. We only able to plan to go volcano, Canggu/Kuta beach, Ubud, Tanah Lots. There are many others more.

US n Rupiah rate hav been flactuate during the weekend. Rupiah is kinda hard to get in KL city and the rate was not really ideal. US rate drop a bit. Hav collect some mouth info from frens too about do n don't as Bali is a strong culture n religious island.

Lastly hopefully our family can enjoy the trip and hav a great time to get together again. Will update more about the trip once I'm back.

Win Win..lucky me!

If u listen to MyFM, you’ll know since yesterday there is a cash game show, whereby at certain hour the DJ will call u and u can win cash money. A game sponsor by ING Insurance. I have SMS registered myself since the game promo ad on-air during the weekend. I just throw my luck again, as I said in my life I never hav this kind of lucky draw for prizes’s luck. I just sent in just to put a hope that I will win something. I know again the chances are damn low..millions of ppl to pick from.

The game rules is like this. The DJ will call u, when u pick up ur phone, u can’t mention any “Hello”, which is very common to start ur phone conversation. U need to be alert and directly mention the “MyFM tagline”, then u r eligible to win RM100, followed by if u can mention “I.N.G” for 3 times another RM100 is for u. So a total of RM200 is in ur hand. Plus, if that particular hour is bonus hour, u will get an extra RM700. So, in summary if tagline and ING being mention, for not bonus hour = RM200, bonus hour = RM900. If you mention “Hello” upon answer the call, RM200 will accumulated to the next lucky winner.

Yesterday night got home from gym, took my rest as usual, browsing Internet and check mails before went to bed. Actually I was so tired until my eyes almost closed when reading emails and thought wanted to shut off the pc and went to bed already. At that time I’m not on my radio, coz do not used to on plus Brandon already sleep like a baby at that time. I just alone doing my stuff at another room.

So, since I registered for the game, day n night I listen to the radio and grad hold my phone wherever I go. And also alert all the incoming call number, make sure it is either “Withheld” or number start with 03-9543..”Withheld” displayed normal are those calls from private or hidden number.

Yesterday night 11.45pm, while charging my cellphone, it rings. I take a look at the number display it is “Withheld”. I paused a while not answer directly, quickly in my mind I told myself, is this the call I waiting for? I’m so lucky ah? So, dun care la..just press the answer button. Upon picking up, the other party was quiet, so I just mention out the tagline, then the DJ Fan Bin said: “Congratulation! U win urself RM100!” then not waiting any longer I mention “ING, ING, ING” wow…he told me win another RM100. I was so so surprise and my whole body was in cold sweat, shivering, excited, laugh n happy…n I scream to him…wow…really so surprise…

He continue asked me: “Do you know how much u have win?”I said: “Yeah I wan to know, how much? Faster tell me!” I was talking in shivering n laughing, coz one side excited, one side was unexpected happiness. Too bad la..Brandon that time slept already, he can’t see how I get excited.

He said: “You have total win urself RM600 from the accumulated”. I screamed: “Wow!!!....thank you thank you.” “Plus we will give u another extra RM100”. I screamed again: “Wow!! RM700!!”. My tiers almost falls from my eyes and can’t stop laughing.

He continue: “Not only that, this hour is bonus hour, mean u know how much u can get?”. I said: “Another RM700 and total up RM1400!” I continued to scream and scream and it is unbelievable that I’m the lucky one!.

Aft he took down my personal details, we continued to chit-chat for a while. At that time I still can’t get myself to cool down and I can’t describe those sudden surprise comes to me… He told me he is having so many names n numbers and he dunno which to pick, happen that my name comes at the last one in the list, so he picked that n called me…Imagine yesterday was the first day only. Oh my God…so easy RM1400 cash in your hand just giv u like that, with just few words u need to mention…without doing anything in compete…I still thinking how come is me…as last evening when on the way to gym, I told Brandon I just registered to join the game and he even told me won’t b so easy n lucky can b selected, so many ppl…and we even discuss over it, on how to tackle the number we received and what to say when the call is in n etc…our conversation was just like a pre-practice to me.

After I hang up the call, I SMS my close cousins to tune in to the radio and listen to my scream on-air. Can’t wait the edited playback on the radio. Aft 2 songs my scream voice on-air. Wow, I was like..ahh…dunno..i dunno how to say la…

My cousins called me aft the on-air playback n we chit-chat for awhile, she feel happy for me…one of my college fren also listen at that hour as well and she also called to congrat. They so envy for I can simply win a large amount of money. They said how come I so lucky…my this college fren 4 years ago also listening when I won movie tickets….ohh…it was just so great!!

Yesterday night I can’t even sleep tight…too excited liow…coz the happy stream just flow in my mind n body…Before laying down I SMS my dad n bro to tell them this good news…and my dad congrats me too…today I still feel energetic..not sleepy at all…I still stick to MyFM and listen to other lucky one.

I still dunno how to spend this money until I get it. Brandon finally registered himself thru SMS. Friends, if u wan to stand a chance faster SMS now. Key in “MYREG(space)ur name” eg. “MYREG JUDY CHOW” and send to 32366. Upon register u will get a confirmation message. Aft registered, tune to it and hold ur phone tightly and u will be the next lucky one.

Carnival TV3

Last weekend quite busy coz FIL not around. This time he went to Taipei, Taiwan for holiday. Hopefully they can enjoy the trip in peace. Although Taipei was not the city storm by the “Taily” wind.

Karnival TV3 was at my area this round. Heaps of crowd visited and causes traffic jam and road block. Well…the situation was expected, nothing was so surprise and frustrated. It held at the carpark outside Bukit Jalil stadium. I took this opportunity to visit, just walk 5 mins across the road. Booths available are like Maxis Hotlink, P&G, Maggi, DutchLady, Dewan Bahasa, Zoo Negara, Naza Motor, Maybeline, Munchy’s, KFC n etc…Many lelong and good deal around, all other booths many sold malay foods and drinks and also live performances.

Sunday night before the carnival call it an end, fireworks again was lighted up the stadium, it was just popping up above my apartment, watching it for 15 mins..just love the firework sensation.

Holiday

At 12.00am sharp look outside from my bedroom window spotted 4 places light up with fireworks..although enjoy it from far but the firework and the event does boost the Merdeka count down celebration. Aft tat, bed-time..wake up the next morning 9am…can’t sleep too late as the body clock set to 6.30am.

Wake up clean the house then went out to have dimsum breakfast at Tmn. Connaught. As usual holiday everywhere is full of ppl. Met a fren there also having their dimsum..see the world is just small…went to Leisure Mall aft half an hour. Initially wan to go fitness and met up Brandon’s classmate. At the end, not going to fitness, coz spend too long listen to his to shared about a business plan…this fren of him very secret, in the phone he do not wan tell what kind of business he wanted to shared. Upon met up he and his teammate were along…main issue is not talking abt the plan yet, but is all about what is ur dream to achieve in ur life n chit-chatting…bla bla bla…then only we know they wan to introduce us Lampe Berger business…They do not told us directly what is the plan all about, bringing us to turn big round abt the dream, quite boring to listen to them for 2 hours..and Brandon at last can’t go for his Body Pump class.

To me, MLM business structure is not suit for us or long run, as my past experience in Omegatrend, I found myself really not into it…even I work very hard in it for a few months, of coz I understand if I really put in my whole effort to aim for it, sure one day I still can achieve what I wan. But my mind and heart told me that I’m not into it, I still prefer something more realistic, I dun wan to force myself. As Brandon said, imagine the whole world is master by MLM marketing, so whose going to be the end consumer and from where the money going to flow into ur structure?

Aft this section, outside was raining, so we went over to Cheras Plaza Neway to sing K. Just 2 of us sing for 3.5 hours non-stop until voice half gone…hahaha…then we went home..Cook some pork porridge to sooth the throat..that’s my holiday!

Patriotic me

Open up newspaper everyday, aside from MCA election which hav cover half of the daily news and now almost comes to the end, fuel price going to rise (again…) n other issues like accident, civilization problems n etc.. What makes me so happy to bring up the news I read lately were these – Change MyKad Win Prizes and also Mega Discount on Traffic Summonses.

I was thinking how come government so good…for change MyKad win prize, there will be a total of 80 prizes are up for grabs every month and every draw will schedule at end of the month of Sept, Oct and Nov. So meaning if u having MyKad u and I will automatically stand a chance to win, they will draw u by ur I/C no. Dunno whether I got a chance to get one of the prizes among Malaysian, very tiny hope..just let the luck take place…who knows…as so far in my life I’m not that lucky in this kind of draws...for nation normally this kind of lucky things will more go to the malays…I think many times they are very lucky, those big grand one always they got it.



See most of the time, we just complain n complain about the rules set by government…What a kind n generous of them, this time not rising the summon rate but got discount somemore, aft mega sales, now mega discount ha…so fren if u know u having “dried beef slice” pls get it settle, as this special discount are in conjunction with Independance Day only…for 2 weeks time only starting from Sept.1, all kind of traffic summon will get 50% discount…report saying there are 8 millions unsettled summonses, so faster go n check see whether u are in the ‘hall of fame’.


So happy abt it? hhmm..should b ok la…of coz the more the merrier…at least now we see something benefits to us ya…

Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka! “mat du ga” - whatever add/rise, “mei tit ga” - rice price drop (haha…lets hope..) whatever u call it…we should love our country, respect the government n the nation…later hope can get to see some firework at Bukit Jalil here, not went to any place to count down…just wan to get more rest…
National Day is the best time to show ur respect to the country, see this in New York..

At least 600 Malaysians took part in the first-ever Hari Kebangsaan float parade in Flushing, New York on Saturday that brought the normally busy Main Street to a standstill. Dressed in traditional costumes, they marched and waved the Jalur Gemilang in a parade down the two-mile route. The four floats that were decked with Malaysian flags had children and adults on board dancing and waving to the crowd. The catchy joget numbers had some passers-by dancing to the beat.

So lovely n warm in foreign country can feel the home culture n taste, I believe this is also a great chance to promote Malaysia to the eyes of the world....Can’t deny, in some area Malaysia still Boleh!

Grubby Monday

Since last Saturday that was a stink smell in the office, believe that smell was come from the air-con there. So, I dun care of it as I was only on half-day work. Today, open the door, the smell is more stronger and it comes from the ceiling above my seat..OMG…how am I going to sit for today…believe that this time must hav died mice up there again…so called the store worker to check up the ceiling, as last time there was one died up there and rotten with worms…so smelly and feel wanted to vomit… aft open up a few ceiling board to check, nothing found, my malay gal check at the air-con, open it up the smell is very strong come out from there, but still not able to found any died things…look, check, found the whole office from ceiling to floor, nothing found, but the smell really killing…

So, for the moment to lighten the killing smell, we just spray it with mosquitoes spray, hope it kills something up there…then close the ceiling board. The smell was still there, but not that strong …uurrgghh…

While we cleaned up the desk n floor space aft ceiling board open, another things come up…under the CPU server we found worms, a few…imagine how come it come out from there, there must b something died inside…it comes out on the desk a lil by lil underneath it…we not open up the cpu and check yet…today really makes d malay gal can’t concentrate at work n now she was quite geram, pity her, coz the smelly air-con n the “wormed” CPU is at her side…I can’t do anything as I also take in the bad smell with her…

Usually these creature accompany us in the office with just 2 of us, small flies, spiders, and those tiny flies which hook at those smelly things; they fly in front of ur face…so this are the things wit us…we clap our hands everyday…hav to bare wit it…coz this is a warehouse…

"Blessed"



Last Sunday, I got this brochure from Jane about this 4 girls group will come to perform in this week. I was so eager to look forward this day. As u know yesterday was “Hungry Ghost” day, but nothing can stop me from attend it.

Brief intro about them – They are 4 girls in this group named “BLESSED”. Namely Sophie, Annie, Lily and Angela. Average age 20+, all of them are from different country but being brought together to form this group 5 years ago by a Taiwanese producer name Elvis Hsu in US when he have this vision from God. All of them studied there majoring in music, dance and performance in Uni. Till today they hav came out 2 albums. Heard the “Blessed”, kinda of holy yeah and yes they all are grow in Christian more than 10 years and having much experience to serve in church. 4 of them pretty girls, having a very nice voice. The music sharing nite brought out like a mini concert, got encore ending and album signing section. They sing all 10 new songs collected in their latest albums “By Heart”. They also shared about their own background and life experience with God. Besides that, they also showing us their VCR all the way in producing this album and they are how they blessed in making this album. Can see how God’s great work in between them. You might think that they sing like traditional church songs or hyms…no, no, none of that feel at all..this album bring out all about love and care of God, which can make u quiet ur heart and relax while listening. Nothing to sing on worshiping n praising God. Just that the contented meaning all comes from God loves. I love almost all of the songs…especially “The Power of Love” in English, which sing in Acapella style. All of them hav good voice. Even those popular entertainment program producer in Taiwan are invited them to join in they entertainment interview or game show.

If u noticed on Wednesday and yesterday they are being interview on air in MYFM and Ai FM (Radio 5). These 2 days heard the song and being played. Media promoted this album out to the public like those newly release album/songs, not only limited to the churches and believer, that will be more easier to accept by young ppl.

This album release in June this year and was hit in Taiwan and US. Next stop they will be in Singapore and more others Asia country and now they are in the midst of arranging the album going in to China market. Hope more ppl can get the good news.

I went with my cousin sis and bro and other of their church members. I sat in the front row and enjoying the whole night great performance. Not forget to bring back 2 of their albums, “Your Love Feeds my Soul” and latest one “By Heart”. At the end of the concert, v all get signed on our album. Reach home at 11.20pm, Very happy :)

Personality Test

Get to know yourself better

Your view on yourself:

You are intelligent, honest and sweet. You are friendly to everybody and don't like conflict. Because you're so cheerful and fun people are naturally attracted to you and like to talk to you.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.

The seriousness of your love:

You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?

Your views on education:

Education is less important than the real world out there, away from the classroom. Deep inside you want to start working, earning money and living on your own.

The right job for you:

You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

How do you view success:

Success in your career is not the most important thing in life. You are content with what you have and think that being with someone you love is more than spending all of your precious time just working.

What are you most afraid of:

You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear.

Who is your true self:

You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

~ Half of it are says the true, others not really.

Stay awake at work

I think you and me sure will have some tired eyes or sleepy mood during office hours. Whats more today is Monday…monday blues again…this morning when u are still in the bed..bet u have ask urself, can I hav 10 more minutes..5 more minutes?...But ur alarm clock always tells u hav to wake up…piggy :P

What makes me blog this today as I read an article from newspaper during lunch just now, and it might b helpful to the workacholics…

15 TIPS TO MAKE YOU MORE ENERGETIC DURING WORK
1. Be used to this attitude, reach the office 10 minutes earlier, blend ur own hot sugarless green tea, sniff in and taste a lil and let urself start of a brand new working day.


2. Always hav some mint or soothing throat sweets in your pouch, take one to moisture ur throat and it will helps to bring back all ur mind and soul.

3. Throw away the medical oil and changes to a baby purfume, use it as the fresh sweet smell will wake u up.

4. Try this, plug in a small fan into ur computer USB port, it allows more fresh air flow if ur surrounding the air flow is not good enough. (Preferable if it can spin out some refreshing smell). - dunno whether got sell here?

5. In the aircon room, water mist and moisture cream - a must have. Use the water mist to wake u up then moisture ur face with some cream. Remember that, feel pretty also another way to boost up ur work efficiency.

6. When u nearly going to “catch fishes”, stand up walk to the escalator or lift, go up and down for few times, professional hav proven that it simply can kill away ur sleepy mood.

7. Ur fav idol pic or some scenery that u longing for..choose any one to put as ur computer wallpaper. When u feel boring or frustrated, look at it, it might helps u to get out if it and feel good again…at least.

8. Facing problem in the mist of preparing some plans or work which u can’t get a solution yet, very irritating, do rest for a while. On ur MSN or Yahoo Messenger, find one or two fun loving fren go and chat for a while, relax and start ur work again.

9. Important client meeting which make u so tense. Dun get panic, go to the washroom, brush ur teeth and the tooth paste smell can let ur mind awake and ur smile will simply more confident.

10. Facing too long infront of computer n u might get dizzy now. Slowly get ur things on ur desk arrange it back nicely, slowly throw away the unwanted paper. While u clearing ur desk it also clearing ur mindset.

11. Extremely tired? Ready a bottle of lavender essence oil, a few drop of water n oil allows the smell flows in the air and deep breathing immediately, it make u more refreshing. Besides that, change to hav green tea instead of having coffee. The world trend now is drinking green tea as it helps in beauty and health very much. Those who loves green tea are great in reducing of bad temper.

12. Bring some snack food to share wit ur colleagues, dun forget girls friendship more or less is come from the food n chatting. Moreover, lots of the snack food can help to slow down aging and take away tiredness.

13. Work tired, hard feeling, do not rush back home. Perhaps go for Spa or foot reflexology, bringing in the essence smell and slowly let urself go into the quiet sleep mood, guarantee that tomorrow u will feel good at work.

14. Because of rushing a plan, 3 continuous days u having OT. Ur body, mind and soul may exhausted. Aft the plan over, take a sick leave and rest at home. Appropriate rest will bring more efficient in ur coming plan. I think ur boss will understand this well ya.

15. If u know tomolo u having a difficult case to handle, do sleep earlier in the nite before, second morning wake up early, well prepared ur presentation, u will feel that because u feel good, many things will go smooth and easy.

Hope the above helps u and me ;)

My weekend

Since every Saturday is a working day to me, but i still feel very happy today, the biggest reason is because the haze goneee..haze pls go..go..go....never come back...Sumatera and the local goverment pls do something and do not try to tell lies to urself and all the citizens here...u too also sucking in the air. Hope aft today clear blue sky, clean fresh air will stay forever...not sure whether this time they going to take this seriously or not...hopefully next year do not see the haze again...

I went off in the afternoon, take LRT back to Bukit Jalil and then went to Carrefour...wat else...'marketing' again la, not plan to buy many as the meat always not as fresh as in the morning market. Bought chicken fillet for tonight spegahatti and also some packed ingredient for bak kut teh, soup and steam chicken. Went home without rest, start cleaning up the house and clear all the smelly clothes and towels. By the time aft clean n cook already 6.30pm. Feel a lil bit tired. Stay in front of the TV and computer before sleep.

This is a 'housewife' Saturday.
_________________________________________________________________________

Morning wake up quite early as Brandon went to hiking while as usual i went to church. Today came a very special speaker, he is not a normal man, he is a man who have past his 17 years life on his wheelchair. In his young age he was an active athletes in 400m run. Lower part of his body hav paralyse, his hand is not able to move around much, and he also not able to sweat. Because of an accident, it took away all his living ability.

A great changes in his life, if the church pastor, bro and sis were not there to help at sunny or rainy days he were not took his courage to live till today. He shared a lot of his experience and he told us that everyday we should b feel thankful, no matter in good or bad. God do not promise sunny day, no pain n no sorrow, but thru it God guide us to hav faith in him and let us grow stronger. Today he no longer mind on how ppl look at him, God have fully recovered his broken heart n soul. God even gave him the ability to writes songs and now he hav successful came out the first album of his life, an album writes about the Lord great did to his life.

A wheelchair man can still praise and thankful to God everyday. Why not we should also be praising n thanking our God for we still living completely, coz we do not know how our days pass for the next 20, 30, 40 years..but I just know that to be faithful to God till end of the world and he will promise there are no pain, no tears n no sorrows.

Lately due to haze and now gone already, I have been done a lot of cooking that why i store some meaty in my fridge to b ready can cook at anytime..Sunday night dinner cook a lot, eat twice only can finish up the dishes, sometime 2 person very hard to cook also..hehe... Bee Moon visit me to check my wedding album again, as she was not satisfied with hers one, and also sending me her red bomb n also her wedding photo..so happy for her...

Thats was my day. Blessed…

Shocking

Was having gathering yam cha wit Yan and nikki aft gym at Sri Petaling...so great to see them once again...especially nikki, since long time not meet each other...we all chatted a lot..knowing from nikki, my ex was asking her out..tat was surprise of me...as i know all this while both of them still contact aft we broke off ...he wan her to do him a favour ...from her is good that I can know how he is living now. He even told nikki that I not recognise him as got once we opposite walk by passing each other and look at each other (at that time i was on duty, thats why we just pass by). Well, he not greet me at all…just like stranger walk by only..I think that he still very passive..many time i still ICQ msg him..and his reply was always short n cold.....i think till today he still having some kind of anger wit me. Since we broke off, we not even hav any verbally contact and we r like totally stranger....I hope that I won’t see him again at anywhere...previously I got 3 times saw him back on the street...but only that the one time we see wit each other, other times I just saw him, he not saw me.....well..watever la….everything is history..just wish him well...

Sometime i think that, is it end of a lover relationship, means end of everything? Wan to find out how u handle this kind of end of love relationship bond? for some they kept each other as good fren/closed fren, some like me can b totally stranger, for some quietly walk out of it n let time take place to fade away all the connection...of coz we wouldn't not forget tat person in our life time becoz they hav once came into our life....I prefer to keep them as a fren n would not go back for the relationship once it broken...my this ex is the only one who refuse to b fren...Yan told me her ex inviting her over to his wedding dinner...i just told her that do whatever u feel good...u know that kind of cross feeling is not that feel good...

Yesterday was exchanging emails with my ex-male colleague, who was sitting next to me last time and we used to be in the same team...in the email he told me on this year end is xxx big day. As I can't read the "xxx"which typed in chinese character n display funny character. When he replied, he said that it was HIS big-day...wat a shock to me...i really so surprise...this guy used to be very quiet, talk soft n shy....until we gals need to ask him to speak louder when he talked...hahaha.. and he used not to disclosed any of his relationship to us...all the while what we know was he do not hav any relationship...hhmm..very sudden ahh...and not forget at the same time congratulated him...u see..guys is always like tat, they like to surprise u and always keep things in deep secret...looking at my list..another BOMB!!

Family day

Last Saturday was my cousin sis wedding. Those relatives from my mum's side were came down from Ipoh to attend her wedding dinner. Most of them were over night at my Puchong's house. The house was so pack, until the dining room and all bedrooms were occupied. They wan to pack together is because they wan to chit-chat n get close. Everytime when we all met up they sure chit-chat until midnite...coz in a year we only met few times if there is occasion else we only met once during CNY....the last all my relatives met was during my wedding...

I so miss of my dearie nephew and niece from Ipoh...everytime I know they came I'll be very happy looking forward to see them...they are very small just 1 and 2 y.o kids..

Dinner held at Serdang. As usual dinner time starts aft 8.30pm..we got plenty of time chatting before the dinner starts...looking all my nieces and nephews growing up i feel like I very old and wanted to hav my own one faster..so that point of FAQ they wan to find out was coming to me every now and then when I met my cousins, uncle n aunty.

The next day morning, my family brought them to have breakfast at OUG. Later in the afternoon, most of them will go back to Ipoh...They dun hav much time to stay long in KL since my cousin's children need to go to school on the next day..no choice everytime they need to come late and go early..so left only one of my aunty, cousin sis n the young kids with us....ohh..so lovely they both...try to look at this, we were look similiar during small...I only found out this when my aunty told me..the more she grow up the more she look like me....


Do we look similiar?


Now she was 2 y.o very lovely gal..she like to stick to me and talk to me..she can well defferentiate all the relatives very well...below is her brother, Dickson..a lovely boy too...at this age he likes to run n move around, this is the only pic i can well capture of him...


We went The Curve, not able to buy anything as the children is follow...need to follow them closely coz they can ran faster than u...so my cousin sis n her husband just window shop a while for some house things as their house ready soon at Mutiara Damansara. We got to visit this flea market stall...not many as compared to Mont' Kiara one..dunno why I got this impression how good if can sell something here...things sell are like cakes, ladies accessories, local traditional wear n accessories..are all simple one..I think some of them are hand-made, especially those ladies accessories..suddently something flash over my mind, thought of shirlyn who can make these crystal accessories very well .why not she set up one here, just during the weekend....n so coincidence she also mention abt this in her blog..i got this strong feel to help her if she were doing it...dunno if she mind not.. :P

Aft spending 1.5 hours there, children was like tired n sleepy, so we decide to go home. But we were hungry at that time coz we hav't took our lunch. Then we proceed to SS2 to hav some light food, then straight away go home to sleep...since tomolo they will back to Ipoh, so at night we treat them a dinner near Tesco Puchong there.

Aft dinner they dun wan to go home yet, and since my family fetching me back home so they all follow me back to my house to visit a while. Aft all, this family day was simply warm n nice...till we met again...may b next yr CNY...

Law of the Seed

Take a look at an apple tree. There might be five hundred apples on the tree, but each apple has just ten seeds. That's a lot of seeds! We might ask, "Why would you need so many seeds to grow just a few more apple trees?" Nature has something to teach us here. It's telling us: "Not all seeds grow. In life, most seeds never grow. So if you really want to make something happen, you had better try more than once."

This might mean: You'll attend twenty interviews to get one job. You'll interview forty people to find one good employee. You'll talk to fifty people to sell one house, one car, one vacuum cleaner, one insurance policy, or a business idea. And you might meet a hundred acquaintances just to find one special friend. When we understand the "Law of the Seed", we don't get so disappointed. We stop feeling like victims. We learn how to deal with things that happen to us. Laws of nature are not things to take personally. We just need to understand them - and work with them.

IN A NUTSHELL: Successful people fail more often. But they plant more seeds. When Things Are Beyond your control, here's something that you must NOT DO so as to avoid misery in your life:

- You must not decide how you think the world SHOULD be.

- You must not make rules for how everyone SHOULD behave.

Then, when the world doesn't obey your rules, you get angry. That's what miserable people do! On the other hand, let's say you expect that:

- Friends SHOULD return favours.

- People SHOULD appreciate you.

- Planes SHOULD arrive on time.

- Everyone SHOULD be honest.

- Your husband or best friend SHOULD remember your birthday.

These expectations may sound reasonable. But often, these things won't happen! So you end up frustrated and disappointed. There's a better strategy. Demand less, and instead, have preferences! For things that are beyond your control, tell yourself: "I would prefer "A", but if "B" happens, it's OK too!" This is really a change in mindset. It is a shift in attitude, and it gives you more peace of mind ...: You prefer that people are polite ... but when they are rude, it doesn't ruin your day. You prefer sunshine...but if it rains, it is ok too!

To become happier, we either need to change the world or change our thinking. It is easier to change our Thinking! In summary: It is not the problem that is the issue, but rather it is your attitude attending to the problem that is the problem. It's not what happens to you that determine your happiness. It's how you think about what happens to you!

Life FAQ

Have you ever wonder you hav been answered many of these FAQ many times along the way you growing up? Sometime your respond may b silent, coz you dun hav an answer yet. Or, we bring out another topic to cross over this question, coz u dun wan to answer…Sometimes if you were to respond, our answer may disappoint them for that time being and makes them keep on asking. Some ppl may wan to keep it low, better than if ur answer disappointed them. But, no matter how u dun like to answer it, how many time the same person ask u again n again…for those who care about u they are still very keen to find out aft a while they not see u. hehe…don’t u know indirectly we ourselves have also asking a lot of these question to others?

Below are the common questions I faced: -
1. Still study? in Standard what? Form?
2. Hows ur exam result? How many ‘A’s u hav? (very pressure la)
3. Which Uni /College u go? Majoring in?
4. Still study? How many years more to complete?
5. Working already? Where and what u work as? Salary how much now?
6. Got boyfriend already?
7. When u get married? (aft u hav steady relationship)
8. When to get baby? (right aft married)
9. When u hav more to come? (aft u got 1st child..)
:
:
I think until the last point, your ppl ard u may start to slow down in finding out the coming FAQ.

That’s what a life growing process. Currently u know I’m stuck at which point ya…lately a lot of ppl wan to find this out….I dunno how long I need to repeat this answer to the same person n to those who wan to find out… my response was just let it happen as it goes…be patient.. :)

Wireless home

Last Saturday after work, we went down to low yat plaza to get our wireless connection ready since we hav the streamyx connection. We actually were a bit blur on how to configure it and the wireless device we suppose to get. The day before Brandon was trying to check out wit his fren, but his fren seems giving blur info also…ok nvm..so we got down there to check and ask for it…finally we got it…

We got a wireless modem and actually its also a router and a USB wireless stick 54 Mbps, size like a thumb drive. That’s what makes the wireless connection. Both things cost RM 360. Since when registered for the streamyx we’ve got a modem, and now we can’t used that…if we know it, then we shouldn’t get their modem…the modem not really good ..makes the connection not smooth for the last few days…now we change it and it is much better.

We both blur blur configure it…test here n there..just to try out, coz we also dunno how to do it…Aft a while later we only get it done. We found out that the connection can’t restricted only to 2 users. So the SSID need to put as "any" then only can connect to the wireless point…Wireless modem can support 4 hubs and abt 200 wireless connection at the same time…so imagine if next door do not hav wireless modem and happen they use it like Wi-Fi they can connect using our modem..

The wireless modem allow either to used LAN cable or used wireless stick. So my desktop was the one need to use the stick to connect. If were to bring outside the stick also can plug in to laptop. Upon configuring it…my desktop really gives me problem. Thought of format my desktop since last year coz the operating system was not really stable n it does not allow to install Ms. Office. Now, aft the wireless stick install the problem is more…Internet Explorer problem, hardware setting and corruption error and also my CD-ROM spoilt this time..haii…so I was so frustrated when using it…

Try to re-install the hardware again, the same problem happen also. So my not-so-stable pc is time to format. Brandon scarifies his sleeping time to format my pc and re-install others software until this morning 4.30am. Unfortunately my backup data stored in the partition drive was being deleted when formatting. Luckily not so much, only those photos which haven’t been developed. Only 60% are done, still hav some to install to make it perfect for me..at the moment hopefully it can work fine. The connection was fast. 12MB data can download it in 10 min.


Mega Sales just started, that day aft dinner we went over to Isetan, but can't manage to get any. May b too rush n tired..can't see anything nice...

Read the news today, coming PC fair will be held at KL Convention centre on Aug 5th - 7th. 5000 parking space available, more booth and spacious this time compared to last round.

CF findings....

Yesterday was gym at California fitness for the first time. Well, not so used to the environment there, very warm, can sweat very fast, ventilation is not really good if the workout area is full. Everywhere full with mirror. They only have plain water dispenser, no TV and earphone. Quite many ppl too. Many faces from Maxis and SPK are there too, not sure they are registered member there or just went to trial. Many instructor and standing around ready to help u, the machine are slightly huge in size. Some machines are very new which FF does not have it. Each type of body part machine, they have at least more than 1. The night the Group-X class was Body Combat and Body Step (Advance/Intermediate) all are experienced one, mostly from FF even the instructor too. I not really enjoy the workout there, so aft workout like 1 ½ hour I went shower.

The restroom now. Changing room and shower area are at one end of another. Both they dun have door for you to close, only a piece of soft plastic, upper head part are blur semi-transparent and shoulder downward was in gray color covered. Many shower rooms and changing room, each shower area quite small. The floor at shower area was always wet and water are clog at one end with hairs, feels dirty. Changing and comb area are together, there were many big big mirror. No slipper and plastic bag provided. Locker you need to bring your own padlock to lock, to prevent the key being duplicated. I feel very inconvenient to me. The lockers are in ‘L’ shape, very hard to put our belonging in. Many lockers there but all located at inconvenient place. If u were to used the locker near to the shower area, toilet/hand washing, changing room and comb area for u would at another end and also the other way round. The sauna and steam room was big. Unfortunately the steam room was out of service. At the comb area they have this things like, hair gel, hand lotion, cotton buds, facial cotton pad and tissues…this one was pretty convenient to gals ya...

hhmm..looks like i'm having problem with their restroom...I still prefer back to my FF..tomolo will go again...my temp 7 days VIP pass exprired on next Monday.

Passionate

Since Brandon last won the California Fitness 1 month VIP pass he hasn’t used it, so yesterday we went to check out the thing at Menara Standard Chartered. Thought that he only let him used for 1 month, so Brandon just try to check whether can gain another pass for me to join with him, the instructor so kind, he let me go for 7 days trial…After that we fill up forms, we need to go to the Personal Training room to do height, weight and body fat check. The procedure was so detail taken. After check all that, he also analysis what we need to do to achieve ideal body muscle and strength and also the instructor introduce what are the kind of personal training they have. Of course they not forget to briefly tell us about the membership and joining fees…This coming week I’ll having my 7 days trial, while Brandon might got for one month long. So bad…1 month already I didn’t back to my own FF liow..monthly fee wasted..

So coincidence I recognize one of the lady sales person from FF, Leisure Mall worked in California as sales too. Just chat with her for a while, according to her she said not nice working in FF in the way they treat the staff. She was there is because CF recruit her from FF (wow, really competitive). So she briefly tells me what are the benefits joining California and she said they are very strict in select instructor. What so special was they have a lady workout and stretching area, guy are strictly prohibited. This is good for the gals so that they dun feel embarrass when they do stretching or workout.

California Fitness have occupy 5th floor, spacious, modern design. 1st floor personal training room, 2nd floor – 4th floor are all the workout and cardio area. They only have 1 group exercise studio, which situated at 2nd floor, it is very big. 5th floor only the Restroom..Bath towel are provided free without extra payment. They do not have Juice Bar and VCD rental. Overall quite ok with the facilities and ppl there. Membership fees compare to FF comes slightly cheaper, just that location we dun like.

Extremely wanted to watch movie Initial-D since the day it was shown in the cinema, but till today the show time is still always full…we even go telephone advance booking, still hardly get. That was very bad coz only TGV can have that movie on. Yesterday try to bought tickets from counter at KLCC TGV, you know the queue lane (special for Initial-D and War of the World only) were go far until the Aunty Annie there. So we continue to check out the availability seat for all the 11 showtime from the screen, that time we queue up was 3.30pm the screen shows the seat only available at 8.50pm (and that hour also running fast already)..Gosh! how to wait until that hour..so we decided to left. We took our meals there then we went home. Later we do advance telephone booking for tomorrow night 11pm..finally got it..can’t wait anymore..hehe…Due to having cold yogurt drink in the morning, yesterday whole day my stomach was not right. At last I’m having diarrhea in the evening and makes me can’t took any dinner.
