Here comes another Off Day...
I always cant wait for the nxt off day.. & tmrw is the day.. shiok
I had my shift change to morning today. Initially it was suppose to be on Noon shift, however I had it change bcoz I just got a deal to buy Tok's new phone. The Lady's meeting in at 12noon. Furthermore I've promise RauDz that I'll be meeting NiN@ today to book the SN concert tickets.. So lucky me, I manage to get swap at the 11th hour.. Thanks to EuGeNe then...
So Lunch time today, I had to make a trip to ToA P@YoH to NiN@ office. Gosh I was practically lost at HDB HUB. I took the wrong lift 3 time, I must be really blind or what lah I guess. I didnt read the directory of the office clearly... So Finally I manage to reach NiN@ at the 10th floor of the East Wing of the Building. So after paying to her I rush back to get back to work. At the 1st floor, I was approached by a Pakcik, he asked if I'm a staff of HDB. So I said NO, he told me that I shld report before getting myself in to the building. He told me, "Awak ni jalan sana, jalan sini. Kalau tak tahu tanya lah..."
I said to him, "Saya mintak maaf encik, saya tak tahu..."
He said to me again, "Tu lah awak tak tahu awak tanya, ni awak naik lift situ, naik lift sini..."
I believe that he saw me earlier, feeling lost. Then by all means, he shld be the one approaching me at least ask, "Ya boleh saya bantu" or something.. How am I to noe that I had to report myself. Furthermore the lobby was so crowded by people during lunch time... Apa lagi, kita Marah lah orang cakap kita mcm ni.. Sabar aje.
Yesterday evening I receive a call from a Long Lost Friend... Nizam from KL. He was previously from JAL KL, however he left & join KLM KL instead. I can see that he has better prospect in KLM KL coz he goes to Amsterdam, Frankfurt very often for courses & jobs whatso ever... Good life. Nizam's is coming to Spore again, wz RadZman from Penang KLM also. They're having some course or seminar in KLM Spore. So I grab the chance to chnge my noon shift to morning nxt Wed when they arrive. Insya ALLAH jumpa lah mereka2 tu nanti...
Oh Ya, I forgot to mention that NuRuL's pregnant.. her 2nd. Anyway she hasn't even posted in her blog abt it.. Apa lagi bila nak post Nyah??
And a new blog friend's Big Day is this Fri. Chech_Mak, Selamat Pengantin Baru eh!! I told her I will Doa Insya ALLAH tak hujan kat Seremban. Nak Hujan kat KL ke, Spore ke takpe. Biar Pengantin kita make up tak cair takut kot kot hujan lebat ke...
Insya ALLAH tidak leh..

Itu for those yang kau tak berkenan di hati lah.....

"Oh yeah...Saddam Husein and Osama are related to me lah"

What is the best word & sentence to tell people that I'm not inte rested & ready yet!!!!
Yesterday was my 1st day of work aft 3 weeks of god noe's the Heaven I had at home....
As usual it was such a disastrous feeling abt coming back to work. Knowing that GleNN's leaving by end of the mth. The atmosphere is getting stale at work & demoralised due to the batches of staff who resign aft the Big BoNuS in March.. I expected more goodbye to come for this mth as well
Well coming to work was not to bad at all infact. Was overjoy by the hi & hello & the welcome back to work greeting & hugs.. heeheheheh... I answered calls for the 1st half of the day, luckly I manage to hit the stats for the day.. not to bad. I had so much things to do, to copy my HPL claims, to submit the AL, chnge shift for the coming KL trip & pay all the bday hutang wz the rest of the gang coz I miss the bday people. Heeheheh…
Ok I got morning greeting from my previous date already.. alamak, I noe this is going to come.. I just hate to disssapoint people coz I noe at the end of the day I will be dissapointed & curse for making false hope on people... Jahat lah aku ni.. RahMaD is 34, to me his is young lah.. He stated calling me last night but i didnt pick up.. Ok i hate to feel guilty not rejecting someone like that.. Its not a simple thing to do you noe.
A few days ago YaTi intro me to someone, Kareem 38, he stated to SMS me a few days ago. I sms back to say that I'm not feeling well (coz of my swollen ear & its giving me headache...) to again I've got to reject someone... I didnt expect an sms to come so fast from Kareem coz I've told NuRuL earlier a few days back I'm still not ready. As expected it wasnt her plan.. Its ok, its just that I dont like to reject another soul or two. Coz I'm an expert of being rejected.. haahahahah.. so I noe how is it like.
Pls tell me what am I to tell this people... Coz I m sincerely not ready for another immediate commitment... Seriously..
RauDz & Me went to watch at Movie last night.. "Qaisy & Leila" wz JeH@N MisKiN & F@ZuR@, its a Tayangan Perdana @ NTUC Auditorium Marina Boulevard @ 8pm. Story Line a big dry, but overall it was good coz of the scenary on Afgan & Pakistan on the shooting set.. Actor & Actress are good overall its for Amal sake its a good movie lah. Its just that it didnt give us an impact on something to be reminded of the story
Anyway, RauDz drop her autography page of JeH@N & F@ZuR@ aft just a few step a walk away from them. I guess who ever has pick it up & start showing to people on the signatured sheet, not shy lah coz RauDz name was in there.. What a disspointment.
Another day at work today, but I'm on noon shift till 2300. On top of all, the discomfort on my Heavy Days of 'my sister's arrival week'.. tu yg boring tu…

Highlights of love........
I Hope this is the Boost of Morale when comes to Relationship... Thanks to Meerra...
Attracting Healthy Relationships
Someone once said that in order to love fully, you have to risk having your heart broken.
Too many people in infatuations, romantic relationships and marriages make the mistake of withholding love. Most of our relationships have boundaries. We use them for protection. We've been hurt before, and we're afraid of becoming too intimate with someone lest we get hurt again. As a result, there is mistrust, we play mind games, withhold who we truly are, and refuse to cede our power and pride.
Trust takes a while to develop. The problem is when someone is never able to be completely open and honest. In order to have an intimate relationship with anyone, we must first love and trust ourselves. If we are untrustworthy, we probably will not be able to trust anyone else. The problem is often not the other person. The problem is when we make unsound choices based on our insecurities and fears.
It's good for us to be able to see our own areas that need improving. However, it is distorted to believe ourselves to be unlovable. No matter who we are or what we've done, what we choose to do with our lives is a matter of free will. We can, at any time, change our thinking and immediately begin changing our experience. That is, if we prefer to grow rather than wallow in self pity. Until we can truly accept and love ourselves exactly as we are, close, loving relationships will be hard to come by. Instead, we'll find ourselves dogged by unhealthy, secretive and selfish relationships.
If we can resign ourselves to be in that perfect place of love, where we are giving, loving, and trustworthy for others, people will come into our experience. Some will be healthy for us and others will be draining. To attract those who will resonate with us, we can simply speak softly our highest truth and stand quietly in our integrity. Those who cannot bear the light will slip back into the shadows.
It is often easier to love those we haven't met than those we face daily! Potential partners are always more attractive and interesting in our imagination and in their distance. We always want what we do not have. When we do have it and the illusion falls away, we find that we are unable to deal with the reality, and begin to hanker after another false image.
If we would be loved, we must be loving. If we can look beyond the humanness of another - that is, the weakness and fallibility of being human - then we can see the beauty within. It's that beauty that we fall in love with. That grows ever more lovely even as age creases the skin, loosens the muscles and greys the hair.
Love is an infinite commodity. You can't give it away without creating more. You attract into your life that which you are. To find the right person, be the right person.

Theft, Date & Back to Work Tomorrow.....
This morning FiDz work me up at 8.30am asking if nid to terminate Tok's hp line coz it was lost... I tot of waking up slightly late say 9.30am thinking that I will be back to work tmrw which chances of waking up late aft that will be slim... My eyes just refuse to get back to sleep aft that so might as well get up. FiDz was up early doing her homework, she told me that Mak kol the market this morning. Tok's stuff was stolen in the masjid this subuh. His antiq hp which I gave to him, his wallet, some other personal stuff like IC & some doctors appointment card all inside the kepit ala BJ KaDiR black bag of his was stolen while he took a short nap aft mengaji right aft solat subuh. The Masjid door & gate key is the biggest concern coz it was inside the bag. Sometime I simple dont understand people stealing in a holy place like the Masjid... I just simply dont understand
OK I must write this story really coz its really an experience... Listen up! I went out on a DATE today!!! YES a DATE, 1st aft 4 years... Was so worried but still exciting however still concern over alot of things. Dont really noe what to expect from it. So it was at 4pm arrnge by IJL... I was slightly late coz I've forgotten its school holiday & the train was so packed. So I arrive abt 5mins late.. what an impression coz I dont want to be early coz I noe I'm a early bird & always early when it come to appointment. The place is nice, Gusto at Wisma 2nd floor. I like the place really nice & cool. So the waiter guided me to the table, ok i saw him
He didnt intro himself, I was the one to say HI. He didnt get up nor we didnt even shake hands... So I started the conversation, wait I was telling myself m I the only person talking here.. A lot of awkard pause.. gosh I hate this... I hve to fill up the conversation wz my Tonsil story, then unexpectedly the topic of my biz. I had to go on & on abt biz for abt 30mins which I never want to talk abt it. Then I say "so much of my stories...." he just laugh.. Oh sori, base on the info his name is RaHmaD I think.... anyway we talk abt interest, nothing similar to mine. He is an outdoor person, by the look of it I make myself sounded as though I m a homely typical ladylike girl... Then he said that I speak good English, I felt like laughing.. maybe becoz I felt more confident conversing in English 1st or else it will make it sound so mushy when I talk in Malay... Not that I'm not proud of my Malay, I am.. its just that it will make it look so minah coz when Malay is concern it will sound like a minah rock. Coz when words like Lepak, Rabak all come in the sentence it will not look nice on an impression.. haahahahahahah
Abt an hour abt the meeting I giving a hint that I want to balik lah... he wanted to stay on, yet again I go on & on wz my stories.. Apa cerita lagi aku nak bring up eh.. Unexpectedly I mention abt penghijrahan to Malaysia, actually trying to put him off.. but instead its not. Not knowingly I mention abt DuBaI which I never wanted to talk abt it till he asked me why leaving to DuBaI.. thats it! I've no choice but to mention abt me being previously engaged.. I hate it.. I never want to talk abt past relationship!!!!!!!!!! "I Want to go back already.." I was saying it out loud in my heart of course...
I came to realised something abt myself today... I'M NOT READY FOR COMMITTMENT!!!! I'm so not ready into involve wz another relationship. Gosh what is happening with me!!!!!
So anyway, I tot of going on Dutch instead he wants to pay for coffee. I must say that he do not have similar interest wz me anyway.. I tried to talk abt football, he never watch any. So I rest my case then. We walk out of the coffee house, he asked how do he ctc me again. I just dont want to be rude so I hve to give him my namecard.. Actually I do not want to give... I was so eager to call Darma or Lynn. Lucky Lynn picked up the call. She asked me where m I coz it sounded like as if I'm at Pasar Geylang.. She laugh at me coz I called her immediately aft the date... I told her I'm not into jumping for wedding bells she understand me...
Anyway Its just an interesting day for me.. Well I'll be back to work tmrw.. & thats sucks big time... I'm really into job hunting back again. So how things goes. But I just hve to boost myself coz I'm watching a show wz RauDz tmrw evening.. Hope it will be a good thing to start the 1st day of work aft 3 wks then
Nyah, dont be surprise if you read today's Blog... haahahaha……

Recovering...
If not for another wk of HPL extension, I shld be back to work today.
So means I hve another few days to relax before starting to hear a lot of crazy cust screaming & complaint on all sorts of things...
I've manage to recover fully only sometimes I do feel the pain on the left side of the throat. On top of all, its getting pretty good. I've started eating as in really eating food, yesterday had Murtabak, later Mak cook Chicken Rice, in the evening had Roti Kirai given by Radiah for her Birthday Kenduri at Masjid.. Yummy isnt it? Well after that I felt an absolute guilt abt eating so much... I had that feeling.
We bought out PesT@ PeRd@N@ tickets last Monday, its gonna be at RiTz C@rLTon on 17 June. Just trying to enjoy some glamourous stuff again... heeheheheh.. RauDz friend NiNa told her abt the corp ticket for SN Concert on 20 July, its going at $130 instead of the actualy price at $185. So we finally decided to go, RauDz, Mak & Myself... It looks like we are in so much of a party & entertainment thingy...
Mak & Ayah went Penang for holiday AGAIN. So RauDz & me when out to Taman Warisan to see how good it is. So we went to the museum to see some exibits, we got to noe abt it from the news the night before. I stumble upon a Familiar Name at the news, he's an artist. A school friend of Mak, so we just want to see if there is any painting that will amaze us... We see some of his art work, but the one that we were looking for was not posted on the exibits. So a slight of a disappointment but its alright. Anyway the Familiar Name has pass away years back. Heard he has 3 sons all abt oiut age also. Sometime Mak show concern what if we noe any of his son all the ways of our life. Cannot imagine, its gonna be just like those soap drama on TV... so cartoon...
Went to Arab Street ystrday noon to buy our Materials for Raya. Cant believe it we hve not settle on Raya stuff & we are already half of the year to 2005. This time we gonna do something different. A combination of 2 contrast colours, from the main material to go wz the base or lining... we shall we how it will turn out. Spend $95 for the material per person & $85 for tailoring.. Gosh its been a month of spending man...
I'm going out this evening for some coffee wz friend... Will there be more outing soon before proceeding to work??? Maybe shall go to CCK to see my cousins nxt week then since its sch holidays...

I had a doctor appointment this morning at TTSH. Alhamdulliah everything went well. However my MC is being extended for another week till 9th June. I told doctor I've got to answer calls when I'm back to work. I cant be talking like this, sluring it sounded so funny...

What else, Curry Ikan on prata, or Ayam masak merah.. fuyoo power tu. Jangan mimpi lah dik.. I just had corn & mushroom soup this noon, not to bad after all.

My Tonsil is Gone...
I was down wz flu & sore throat very frequently for the past 5mths. Until then i tot i shld just get my tonsil checked. Indeed it was bad, swallon & big. So I got to get some referal letter from Doctor Ko since I've been seeing him for the past mths he shld noe better. I have exhausted my Medical claim of $300 per year imagine, it was not even 1/2 a year. My medical leave was 3/4 used up till i got a counsling form form my TL.
2 weeks ago I went to TTSH for a doctor/Speciallist appointment & he has suggested to hve my tonsil removed. So yesterday was the day of my Day Surgery
I came to the Day Surgery @ 8am, was told to be there 1 hr early for the operation is to be at 9am. I was scared, God noe how scared I was. I only manage to just say prayers & zikir the minute I step into the Day Surgery Registration Desk.
Finally my name was called, So salam mak & ayah. still scared but just hve to be calm. The Staff Nurse weigh me, 67kg.. biar benar, just a day before that I weigh 75kg.. maybe becoz i hve to fast the day before from 12mid night till the day of the surgery... So i went into the hospital bed, they gave me my gown to chnge. Then I just lie down on the bed, & there was where my zikir starts. At abt 8.45am they wheeled me to the operation theather, then they start asking repeated question like my name, my ic no & if the signature on the form is mine & all that stuff. Doctor only came at 9.05am then they insert the needle on my left arm they start talking & I answer then put the oxygen mask on me & then suddenly.........
I woke up I was already at the holding bay.. they call me name I just nood my head. I'm still giddy... I felt like vomitting.. then later it was ok. so they wheeled me to the Day Surgery ward. I was fully concious then, but still dizzy & now i really felt like throwing up.. Coz i didnt manage to ring the call bell for the nurse to come. It was already all over my bed.. gosh disgusting, it was all brown in color.. eeeee.... terrible man..
Gosh after that i felt better, no more dizzy. I asked the Pinoy staff "Oras?" she said 12noon... I was asking for the time coz i cant see what!!! Oh then they took my spec for me so that i can see. Later ayah came then he collect the medication for me. Then I went back to sleep. The lady beside me had her family all come to fetch her. so noisy lah, i cannot go back to sleep. Finally she left wz the family. A new lady came beside my bed... i heard something abt she want to see the doctor, insist on seeing the doctor. she want to noe how big was the things or what so ever that was operated on her or something.. Alamak another noisy lady, she told her Staff all the life story already.. Then i feel like wee wee, call the staff she came to the toilet wz me.. so paiseh, dont care alh.
Its already almost 4pm. I heard ayah's voice then I saw mak & raudz. Nurse say I'm having fever so will hve to wait a little bit. I was telling myself its better that way just incase i fall sick at home its even more worst. So at 4.20pm Nurse took my Temp again, its 37.9c. earlier it was 37.6c. I was given panadol, amazing i manage to swallow then wz out having much prob, Alhamdulliah...
Nurse asked me to change I can go home now. Temp was 38.2c but doctor say its ok just continue taking the panadol everything shld be just fine...
Head home, it was raining so we took cab back. Ayah left his bike at the office we all took cab home.. I went home, get some more sleep. Woke up at abt 7pm. Mak make me blended porridge. gosh its teribble taste. I took the antibiotic - Augmentine that big one.. ish ish ish... took panadol too. drink the jelly gamat, was told its good for luka2.. makan lah if its untuk kebaikan right??
later at abt 8pm while watching news, I just felt like vomitting again. So I spare the plastic bag, alamak again, I didnt manage my timing right lah. I throw out before I manage to place the plastic bag in front of me. Poor Mak had to clean it up. Told Mak sorry.. kesian mak.. Then I realise that I had yogurt earlier, I shld hve coz my tummy was empty. It was even worst taking yogurt. Well I just hve to sms my sister & friends, or simply hand signal wz my family or write note on papers that I've already standby.. haahahah... I manage to sleep early, miss watching Dia & other stuff also.. But sleep was more important then.
Today Alhamdulliah I'm feeling much better, eat porridge - real porridge in the moring. Had mash potato for lunch, Ribena for my cold drink.. not to bad though...
So I will be on Hospitalisation till 2June 05... good luck man..

Its been Sooooo Long Since.....
Gosh its been almost a mth since i blog.
I was down wz fever & sore throat for so many month. Finally I've got to have my tonsil remove!!! Actually I'm pretty scared wz the whole thing but I just hve to stay strong... haahahah.. sounded as if I've to go thru some major operation. Well of course!!! I've never been admitted to a hospital & best part of all I was never even born in a hospital what!!! Ya, my mom gave birth to me at home coz she was so concern abt giving birth 1st time so she dont want to be admitted to a hospital.. hahahaahh.. so u can see why I m so worried abt the operation!! I'm already thinking abt hving a long string of zikir when I will be wheel into the operation theater then.
Ok, office is getting empty. 5 people resign last April aft the big bonus. And a few more will leave this month. Heard some will be tendering resgination towards aft the pay day. Its gonna be tough, I was actually so emotional till I cried when Sharon & Mary's last day. I was feeling so demoralised with the emptiness of the senior staff leaving in Billing. Work is getting heavy & system is getting sensative & people or rather the Superior are getting more not human. I dont noe, maybe I will not understand.. Till now I still refuse to understand why when you're up there, you just simple forget to look down & be humble a bit... I simple dont understand.
Been planning for a holiday hopefully the end of June family vacation will turn out good. We will be going to Sarawak for holiday... Insya ALLAH.
NuRuL was here for 3 wks since her maid was back home for holiday. So manage to spend some quality time wz her, its been some time... worth it though... She is back home now. But I will sure see her again soon.. maybe end of this mth hopefully...
Last Sat 7th May,I bought MaK a FootSpa for Mother's Day. At the same time I dont noe why I was actually thinking of Mak & KaK RoZie, coz the last mother's day I bought MaK Pasir Ris a selendang, that was when Arwah Bapak was still around. Time was so fast that Bapak 'departure' is close to a year this June...
So I ordered a bouquet of flowers wz Sharon's help on her new job at the florist & have it send to Pasir Ris for mother's day gift for Mak Pasir Ris & KaK RoZie. I wasnt thinking of anything that was realated to you noe Who!!! But I was just thinking that in Life we just nid to appreciate on people when they can still rememeber us. Not untill one day you say that you regret not being able to be there for that person just before they 'go'... something like that. Life is short so we just nid to appreciative with people presence...
Ok got to Go.. more posting when I'm on MC sooonnnn...... haahahah...

LOVE YOUR JOB, BUT NEVER FALL IN LOVE WITH YOUR COMPANY
"LOVE YOUR JOB, BUT FALL ONLY IN LOVE WITH YOUR OWN BUSINESS. IT MAKES YOU INDEPENDENT FROM YOUR COMPANY WHEN THE COMPANY STOPS LOVING YOU
LOVE YOUR JOB, BUT NEVER FALL IN LOVE WITH YOUR COMPANY BCOZ U NEVER KNOW WHEN COMPANY STOPS LOVING YOU - Narayana Murthy
I know people who work 12 hours a day, six days a week, or more. Some people do so because of a work emergency where the long hours are only temporary. Other people I know have put in these hours for years. I don't know if they are working all these hours, but I do know they are in the office this long.
Others put in long office hours because they are addicted to the workplace.
Whatever the reason for putting in overtime, working long hours over the long term is harmful to the person and to the organization.
There are things managers can do to change this for everyone's benefit.Being in the office long hours, over long periods of time, makes way for potential errors. My colleagues who are in the office long hours frequently make mistakes caused by fatigue. Correcting these mistakes requires their time as well as the time and energy of others. I have seen people work Tuesday through Friday to correct mistakes made after 5 PM on Monday.
Another problem is that people who are in the office long hours are not pleasant company. They often complain about other people (who aren't working as hard); they are irritable, or cranky, or even angry. Other people avoid them. Such behaviour poses problems, where work goes much better when people work together instead of avoiding one another. As Managers, there are things we can do to help people leave the office.
First and foremost is to set the example and go home ourselves. I work with a manager who chides people for working long hours. His words quickly lose their meaning when he sends these chiding group e-mails with a time-stamp of 2 AM, Sunday.
Second is to encourage people to put some balance in their lives. For instance, here is a guideline I find helpful:
1) Wake up, eat a good breakfast, and go to work.
2) Work hard and smart for eight or nine hours.
3) Go home.
4) Read the books/comics, watch a funny movie, dig in the dirt, play with your kids, etc.
5) Eat well and sleep well.
This is called recreating. Doing steps 1, 3, 4, and 5 enable step 2.
Working regular hours and recreating daily are simple concepts. They are hard for some of us because that requires 'personal change'. They are possible since we all have the power to choose to do them. In considering the issue of overtime, I am reminded of my oldest son.
When he was a toddler, if people were visiting the apartment, he would not fall asleep no matter how long the visit, and no matter what time of day it was. He would fight off sleep until the visitors left. It was as if he was afraid that he would miss something. Once our visitors' left, he would go to sleep.
By this time, however, he was over tired and would scream through half the night with nightmares. He, my wife, and I, all paid the price for his fear of missing out.
Perhaps some people put in such long hours because they don't want to miss anything when they leave the office. The trouble with this is that events will never stop happening. That is life !! Things happen 24 hours a day.

Charitable Concert...
Semlm tengok concert RiBuT D@m@i @ ExPO... Actually was expecting something more Powerful, especially wz the presence of MN@siR & D@Y@nG so was really excited over the whole thing. However it was a bit dry, the 1st thing happen when u enter the Hall there was a lot of empty space. The whole patch of section F was not occupied was rather dissapointed. Surprisingly the whole row from the back move to the front row. So kita pun apa lagi, pindah aje lah ke depan.. follow the crowd aje lah kita, kalu tak ketinggalan.
Anyway, attending a concern for a good course - entertaiment & donation for Tsun@mi then why not...
Today's my off day, so the lazy at home & relax before the next working day starts tomorrow....
Cheers,

Dating Article - How to Make Sure Men Know You're Available
I Like this one,
Thanks to Feisal...
How to Make Sure Men Know You're Available
If you go out with any guy--whether as a pair or in a mixed-gender group--you may be losing opportunities, because people are getting the wrong impression.
Here are some things to do to make it clear to all those gorgeous guys out there that you are a single, available, and highly desirable lady.
1. If you go out often with your best male friend, tell him that you need to take some time off so that you can find someone new. He may feel rejected, even though your relationship is solely a friendship. Reassure him that your friendship is important to you and how much you value it. You can continue to go out with him, but reserve at least one night a week for going out alone or with all female friends.
2. Reserve at least one night a week to go out alone or with your few closest female friends. The whole focus of the night should be keeping your eyes open, engaging in some fun flirting, and seeing the possibilities out there!
3. If you tend to go out often in mixed-gender groups, seat yourself at the side of the table surrounded by women, keep your body angled towards the crowd rather than your small group, and look up often. Unintentional eye contact can be one of the best ways of meeting someone new.
4. If a guy that you're interested in sees you in the company of another man, ALWAYS mention that the other man is just a co-worker, friend, or sibling. Don't wait for him to ask. Most men have a firm respect for other men's territory. If a guy thinks that you are attached, he won't send out any signals that he finds you attractive ... even if he does.
5. Keep your male friendships purely platonic and don't give into the urge to make them a substitute for a romantic relationship. Male friends often give women an excuse not to hunt for a romantic partner. You may already be comfortable with your male friend, while the hassle involved in meeting someone new, going on a few dates together, and seeing if you're compatible might feel like too much to bother. DON'T settle for friendship when you could be having the relationship of your dreams!
6. If you do go out with a male friend, make some space. Don't lean in close, or sit too close together, or lower your voice for a warm, intimate conversation. Keep your body turned slightly away from your friend and towards the crowd. Make sure that your friend knows what you are doing so that he does not feel offended. Avoid "jokingly" flirting, as it can be difficult for anyone observing you to distinguish from real flirting.
7. Leave your table and wander through the crowd as much as possible. When you are alone, you are much more approachable. Use the bathroom. Get drinks from the bar, and take your time doing so. Let your gaze wander as you wait with a light, confident smile. If that handsome guy at the edge of the dance floor is looking at you, he might just catch your eye.
8. Always have a good time. Guys are drawn to positive energy; they want to be part of the fun. If you're the girl who's having a great time on the dance floor, men will notice you. However, it will be up to you to signal to them your approachability. If you catch a gorgeous guy looking at you, look away quickly, then look back. Glance down and smile to yourself. Look back up again if you feel like it. This game of "eye play" will make it clear to him that you find him attractive. Next thing you know, you may find men lining up in droves at your table.

Seperti Jatuh Di Timpa Tangga lah beb....
I left for KL on 15/03 Tuesday morning on an 8am coach. Eventhough my eyes is still not looking pretty good but I just hve to go ahead as plan coz of the meeting... I left home, travel light, but I hve a comforter to bring it there. Ya, I bought a gift for Reza wedding day coz i tot i shld buy something frm Spore instead. Anyway I got a good bargain for a beautiful comforter set in dark purple color...
Taking a morning Coach is really relaxing coz there is not much traffic furthermore its a working day... so it quite ok at Tuas checkpoint, quiet smooth. But I saw an ugly singaporean trying to fuss over the long wait & Q.. anyway no issue, but he mention abt writting in to Immigration about the long wait. Dont want to wait dont go holiday lah, talk so much... Something happened to me when we reach the JB Checkpoint.... I fell down aft the last step alighting from the coach!!!! mak kau, nasib pakai pants, if not.. heeheheh.. I sprain my ankle. Lucky thing there was this young couple wz a baby just help me... not really help, just ask me if I'm ok.. Not to bad at all. But I manage to get up, betul kan tudung dulu, then start walking back to cop my passport.. malu giler, but dont care lah. Sakit kaki kanan tu tak terhingga.. then jgn lupa comforter tu nak di angkat jugak...
Dah lah terincut incut.. sekali si immigration officer chendol ni charge me for the comforter. Asked me how much is the comforter cost me, he said its almost RM$200 so he has to chrg me RM$50.. I told him its not something that i'm selling to someone, its a wedding gift. He said still hve to charge, he down the price to RM$30.00 chendol kan. I just gave him the $$ coz i hate to talk so much & I dont want to miss the coach.. so I paid him relectantly RM$30.00 nasib dia lah.. tapi marah ni...
I reach KL smooth sailing, but my ankle is killing me. Once I arrive KL, I took a cab to KLCC, limping to the Pharmacy & buy an ankle guard & the menthol cream to rub it on. I hve to wait for Nurul, I was telling myself I dont think I can walk any further. So I just sit down at the benches & watch the F1 Roadshow.
Surprisingly, I saw so may farmiliar faces will I was sitting down for 2 HOURS... I saw Id@ Nerin@ wz Alex YouNg (d M'sian F1) & Wife.. jambu bini dia siot... Then I saw Cheryl S@m@d.. Then NuRuL comeby.. selamat aku... Boleh jalan ke ni. Tawakal aje lah, Insya ALLAH. So we walk2 but I just dont have the mood to shop coz kaki dah sakit apa.. Jalan punya Jalan ternampak M@ri@ F@rid@h pulak.. nasib aku lah jumpa all this people. @nu@r Z@iN takde ke, @r@sh MoHd ke.. sapa2 yg gerek. best jugak kan. Later on we just balik by cab, later in the evening NuRuL & myself went to buy dinner.. Tu baru makan best tu Fuyooo.. ikan masam manis, rojak & all. Sedap tu.
We were suppose to visit BTS for a meeting however we hve decided not to coz we are still concern on the traffic there. W hve decided not to go on wz the plan for Playschool in BTS & we will be looking into opening a Tajaka/Tadika somewhere else probably in any housing estate where we can hub into young parents. NuRuL suggested her apartment has an empty lot on the 1st floor, its not being use at all. Anyway she has spoken to someone from the office & they agree on at least RM$500 rental. So we are looking into it. NuRuL check the papers found something interesting on a setting up a childcare. we she called this guy Joe, sound ok. He mention on a location in Kelana Jaya, she said it too far. But after so much info, he decided to mit us up. He's staying near by Gombak so he come over. Selamat lah, dgn kaki aku in baik jugak dia mai sini...
SO Joe came, we talked. We got a lot of knowledge & info. So he suggested on the below location, he mention abt conducting a survey to see how many household require this service/facilities in Peringin Apartment. He also suggested we take the Dewan (half of the space) on mid day, we nid to talk to the office. So the space for yg empty tu utk Tadika, & the Dewan space for Tajaka... We asked if he can assist on Loan or Permit for me, he said not a problem to look into doing it for us... Hope to get in touch wz him again, Insya ALLAH. Later on we go to One Utama to shop, this time I mit some other people... We mit Fahrin Ahmad & also Adam AF2.. fuyoo.. ingat nak kejor dia, nak kata lah i orng Spore.. heeheheh.. tak sempat2 jugak seh.. haaahahah...
The next day dah nak balik.. Pagi2 dah keluar dgn NuRuL coz my coach back is at 10am. So M@nsor drove us, NuRuL to work & later me to Corus Hotel where the coach is.. At least dah balik pun, gi KL dah mcm gi Geylang. Tak rasa gi holiday pun, dah macam sama aje feeling dia tak ada beza back home....

"Letting go..."
To 'let go' does not mean to stop caring, it means I can't do it for someone else.
To 'let go' is not to cut myself off, it is the realization I can't control another.
To 'let go' is not to enable but to allow learning from natural consequences.
To 'let go' is to admit powerlessness, which means the outcome is not in my hands.
To 'let go' is not to try to change or blame another, it is to make the most of myself.
To 'let go' is not to care for, but to care about.
To 'let go' is not to fix, but to be supportive.
To 'let go' is not to judge, but to allow another to be a human being.
To 'let go' is not to be in the middle arranging all the outcomes, but to allow others to affect their own destinies.
To 'let go' is not to be protective, it is to permit another to face reality.
To 'let go' is not to deny but to accept.
To 'let go' is not to nag, scold, or argue, but instead to search out my own shortcomings and to correct them.
To 'let go' is not to adjust everything to my desires but to take each day as it comes, and to cherish myself in it.
To 'let go' is not to criticize and regulate anybody but to try to become what I dream I can be.
To 'let go' is not to regret the past, but to grow and to live for the future.
To 'let go' is to fear less and to love more.

Sakit Lagi...
I'm on MC since Sunday, got sore eyes lah..
Just on Sat evening at work I felt my eyes watery, I told Daisy, she said maybe you gonna get fever... She said my body & forehead felt hot.. Alamak sakit lagi ni..
So the night itself when I get back, Raudz was having fever. Didnt noe that she got sore eyes coz I didnt see her the night before.. & that how it got infected..
So On Sunday morning I went to Doct Ko Clinic @ Blk 18 since its my company doctor. Got 2 days MC & was given a few medication espcially for my Tonsil yg tak baik2 tu... Mak & Ayah tak ada rumah gi KL for 2 days. So got to bring Raudz to the Clinic also. Doct say he's giving me a stronger medication & it will be slightly costly but what to do, I still hve to recover after all right...
So I called office telling them I'm not fit to come to work coz of my swallon eyes. The TL who answer the call asked me, "can mms me or not???" He made me send him MMS of my swallon & sore eyes! can u imagine?? I'm not sure if he is just kidding or what, but its just not making sense right. SO I said, "ok can i send MMS to you!!!" So I send to my Immediate TL also, he just said take care.. I told him that i was given a stronger medication & its will cost a bit. He sms back suggesting not to take a stronger medication coz it will be side effect in a long run. I just refuse to sms him back.. Apa dia merepek, I've been having this tonsil for sometime & I just can stand it any more so I've got to have it definately...
Dont care lah, dah sakit apa nak buat kan. Ingat suka ke nak sakit sakit ni..... apa aje..

So @ 1205noon I step up to the 4th floor of Suntec City thinking, K I am bloody early man.. sure tak ramai kan!! sangkaan ku meleset.. mak ai, ramai nya orang. I guess must be those people on Lunch break @ Suntec Offices... So I decided to just to straight to 'Ampang Point', I found the Creative Booth & start choosing the MP3 Player tht I wanted. Surpisingly the one that I've been aiming for MuVo Player from $276 on sale @ $199!!!. So I GRAB it...
So happy lah I..

Wedding Bells Part 2... Its still not Mine.. Yet...
Its been sometime since I blog...
so pre occuppied wz things, I was down wz Flu, MC for a few days & till now still not fully recovered. Ayah was in hospital for 3 days.. Ayah is still on MC for 2wks, i think he has abt 1 wk to go.
I've been a bit 'down' over things surrounding me... Being a big head ego, i just cant express it openly to prevent from any 'kecik hati'.. so i shall swallow them slowly...
I attended Abg Jamal's wedding last weekend, wz the whole family. Ayah rent a Car so that all of us can go. At least only left Mak, Ayah & myself coz Fidz was down wz Fever & Raudz only accompany us half way...
Seeing Abang & Linda, wearing the same color dress code - brown imply to me they seems to be very ngam & i think Abang look happy wz things, i think.... Good for him lah. Its abt bloody time lah. After going thru this & that I think its just abt time they get married kot... Linda is kind of accepting our presence. Of course lah dia dah menang apa, dah dapat Abang.. haaahahah... takde lah, dah jodoh dia kot... insya ALLAH.
So later we proceed to other wedding, lastly we went to Yati my 2nd cousin, anak Encik Ra'ai. Only manage to meet the Aunties & Uncles only... Yati is of my age, we so call grew up togather on the same generation... Well infact my cousin of my 'batch' are all married wz kids. Come to think of it, I've been blogging over the same subject of tunang, weddings, married, kids & all along the line lah.. getting boring lah this subject...
At work Zana just got herself engage to this guy 4years her junior & she got to know this guy via Friendster for abt 6mths or so.. And at the end of the year will be the Big Day. There goes the stories abt expensive bridal expenses or over the budget & so on & so forth... Me being the egoistic bitch, didnt even wish to ask her things in details. or she will go on wz all the stories abt her mom & sister & all. Marriage is all abt 'kesederhana' if you want to spead more than you choose to do that isnt it??? jangan kerja mati2an utk spend 1 whole day & your few Thousang $$ gone in a split seconds...
Ya ALLAH palingkan lah aku pada pembaziran jika sekira nya Jodoh ku sampai & bakal mengadakan masjlis Perkahwinan ku kelak. Amin...
Then adik ku pulak sedang sibuk menyusun nak buat majlis dia Jan 06 nanti.. hai pressure aku... dia tu lagi sorang, nak budget, tapi nak gi studio photo shoot pulak. apa cerita pulak. suka hati lah, duit dia nak buat apa suka hati dia lah...
Macam mana aku tak pressure all around me are discussing over the Sensitive Question thingy.... pening aku.
The other day, I was just viewing the nieces Friendster.. I saw some Happy Big Family Photo going on Holiday wz the Bride & the Groom... keluarga bahagia nampak. Cinta orang baru kahwin lagi manis ni... Lagi shiok apa.. I asked Feisal this question on how he manage to over come since his Youngest brother got married. Actually indirectly told him the pressure is on me soon.. Well he said "its all in the mind", i guess for him its even more tense since Reza is the youngest sibling, langkah kakak & abang dia 2 bendul sekali... Power lah adik sorang tu.
Congrats to Reza then.. I called him the other day. Was just asking KING OR QUEEN. Guess what he is honeymooning in Bali. Alamak kacau daun lah aku... heehehe.. Hope to see him Soon, or otherwise will meet Feisal to pass the BIG gift i bought at John Little the other day, that create dispute at home on where to place it & how do it carry it to KL.. heeheheh... I shall figure it out later or rather on that day itself.. anyway I'm going to travel light. No chances is no problem lah...
I was on my way to work today.. at Dhoby Ghaubt MRT on my way out I saw a familiar Face... Hansem, so our eyes met... heeheheh.. but I was trying to figure out who he is, either my old classmate, school mate or.. no.. its M@yuni Om@r.. Gosh his good looks, but he has put on some pounds lah, dah tak cute sangat.. His big eyes is prominent to detect him...
Cheers...

Home Sweet Home...
Alhamdulliah.. Mak & Ayah are back Home. They arrive SIN on 14 Feb 2004 @ 5.10am.
We left home @ 4am, fetch by Andak to the airport. Initially they shld arrive SIN @ 3.45am however there have been a slight delay which resulted to ALL the rest not being able to solat Subuh! Yes, becos they only manage to get their bags @ around 6am. After which we left airport close to 6.40am & by the time we reach home infact on the way its already almost 7am. Nak solat apa pagi hari dah terbit matahari... Anyway, tthey are doing well, just normal batuk. But On Top of All everything is good... Alhamdulliah... Every since they are back its been a dragging day at work. Calls was not so wonderful coz my heart & soul was just thinking of going back home fast.. Entah lah tak tahu kenapa...
Tmrw its the AMP2005. This is the 1st year we not attending the show, 1st of all @NZz is not here in Spore attending them neither is he Performing. So forget it then. Furthermore its showing live & all are at home wz the Presence of Mak & Ayah after arrival. Its just courtesy to be at home when they just back home right??? Hopefully its gonna be just nice & enjoyable to watch it at home then. I think its showing live in Spore, M'sia, Indon also...
Well see who will win tmrw.. Will @NZ be the best most popular Male Artist of 2005?? best part was.. I didnt do my voting.. heehehehe....

Today is also Tahun Baru Hijrah 1426H.
However I'm working.. Just can wait for another day tmrw on noon shift, then off I go on Long Weekend. And look forward to Monday on Mak & Ayah's arrival...
Its pretty sian here at work, but still just enjoy it while it last. Coz its been 11months of heavy call Q & now its the days to relax & just for calls to come in at least 30mins interval. Seronok kan.. hhhhhmmm : )
Its has came to a point that I just go blank on what food to prepare at home. Gosh now I noe how Mak feel when she just simply lost of ideas on what to cook. Tapi bila dah masak tak ada pulak yg makan. Bingit kan... So I just prepared Tuna Sandwich for myself, cucur manis/jagung for Adik2 wz jagung manis & bake beans. Petang nanti they can have prata wz the dish that MakCik Sapiah send us last 2 night. Tonight I will see what to buy for dinner then.. hai pening.. pening..
I was reading The New Paper this morning, even so there is no Berita Harian actually. And I saw someone 'from the past'.. heeheheh.. no lah not ex boyfriend lah, it was Abb@s S@@d.. its more to NuRuL's ex 'boyfriend'.. haahahahah.. nak gelak aku. Gosh, he look old.. Tapi still the same, I hardly reconized him from the photo coz of his botak head new look. But that really remind me of the past seh... NuRul, AtiE, ShYreeN, FaRaH, RoSe & Myself.. We Call ourselves the FRIMNAS.. ShYreeN will still remember that code name of ours... Hai kelakar, belum abis tulis aje dah nak ketawa, macam mana nak cerita ni... chendol lah.. haahahahahahha.... LOL.
K, we use to watch F@nDi(My IDOL), Abb@S S@@D on the field of JLN BeS@R StaDiuM. & infact, we started since we 'went after' N@zRi N@SiR & WiN AunG back then was our 'buddy'.. as if lah. So we watch them on their Football Training till the End & make friend wz them. Watch Malaysia Cup diligently withour fail. That was back in the years of 1980's.. How time flies... & now I lost track on the S League & Tiger Cup thingy.. All the new faces, tak kenal.
So back then, We as in really WE the bunnch of cheeky ladies going gugu gaga ovr the footballers. We went out wz N@zRi quiet a bit, not mentioning the time when we go HRC for Valentine Day celebration. Gosh apa merepek seh... & there was a time Nurul celebrated her Bday there too, N@zRi will comeby also, surprisingly he join us most of the time. I noe RoSe (my Cuzin) & myself, we were close back then, very close, we called N@z often. N@z rang me up a few times also..
DID I actually tell u that before Nyah??? entah tak ingat lah. If u r reading this, baca aje lah & imbas lah kembali masa zaman selengeh2 kita tu.. haahahahahah...
So ya N@z.. & I had some makan2 thing at home during Raya & the Gals came so as He...
I remembered some Days I called N@z for a Favour of my 'bestfriend' coz she is not well & wishes to see him if that possible.. HAAHAHAHAHHA... K I will not eleborate further lah. But I will always remember N@z ride on a Red Caciva Bike & he made wz an accident, a pretty bad one. Was admitted to Hospital, we, again the FRIMAS, the caring lovable GALs came to the hospital to visit him seh.. Hai touching Sot lah.
So Those were the days,
N@zRi N@SiR is happily married wz 2 SONs,
so were the FRIMNAS...
AtiE - Married, wz 2 Daughters,
FaRaH - entah lah wz BF i guess,
ShyReeN - married & dont noe what the status now, wz 2 kid - a Boy & A Girl
Rose - Married wz 2 Daughters now in Manchester
NuRuL - Married, wz a Son (& hopefully 1 more coming rightttt Upppp...)

Enjoy Life To The Fullest....
I've come to my senses.. heeheheh..
What I meant was, Its come to a point that I shld accept things the way it is, at the same time enjoy my life to the fullest. Appreciate things that has happen to me, accept it as a challenge.
Doakan kebahagian orang itu biarpun itu susah utk diterima, meskipun melukakan.
Berikan kemaafaan pada orang biarpun itu susah utk diterima, hakikat nya ini semua pemberian ALLAH pada orang yg mampu terima segala cubaan & dugaan dari nya.
Tengok lah... senang & mudah sungguh menulis & mengukir kata2 yg indah tu, tapi untuk melakukan nya tidak semudah penulisan nya...
Sesungguhnya, aku dah sedar semua nya yg terjadi tu Qadaq & Qadar ALLAH SWT... Terima lah seadanya, nescaya ada yg lebih baik yg akan datang kepada orang yg sabar & bersifat penyabar dgn apa yg menimpa nya.
All things this are due to the bigger responsibility that was given to me. That was to provide for my sisters while my parents are away, to be acceptance to my job & responsibility at work. I've learn to be more patience wz my sisters even though sometimes I'm just to exhausted when I've got to get things done at home after work. But I still accept things the way it is... I've was given a Thumbs up at work due to good call skills, well I've proof to people I can do things right.
Back home, Raudz has been very supportive when comes to cleaning. She's indeed responsibile, but I just still feel that I've got so much things not in common wz Fidz. Raudz & myself kept making fun of her thinking how will her future house gonna be, 'pasti berantakkan loh...' dia tak pandai kemas... ya ampun deh. But what ever it is, as long as she dont go out often, but still I dont really noe coz she's been back home late, doing project she said. I was on Noon shift most of the week.
We've been eating out on last sunday, will be having dinner at Hj Maimunah again tmrw evening.. Yummy yummy... sedap you.
Mak&Ayah will be back in abt 1 wk time Insya ALLAH... They called home almot everyday, I was concern abt the bill. But Ayah read my mind, he rqst to chk on the amt. I told him I've made some advance paymnt just to sure no distrubtion of line. Coz sometimes they concern on high usage on sudden mths, they will monitor or bar line incase the usage goes up to a few hundred of S$$. I have this feeling, its gonna be at least a few hundred $$ say max of $500.00. We shall we then.
So another week of cleaning up till the King & Queen comes home then...

Now then I noe...
Its been almost a week since I Blog...
Now then i noe how it feels like having to do house chores thru out the day.
Its not that I've never do any of them before, its just that when I'm working I'll only do it when its my off day or weekends. But I always take for granted knowing Mak will do things for us.. heeheheh.. jahat kan, sekarang baru tahu padan dgn muka.
On Raya Morning last Friday 21 January 2004...
The night before I did Satay Goreng & Sambal Kacang. Anyway its play cheat lah, coz its the pack thing, just heat it up & its ready to "Ngap" aje lah. But we got our Aunties all over to contribute to our dinner@buka puasa hari tu. Jadi lah berlambak lambak rezeki kat rumah, all has to stored in the fridge. Had a hard time finishing the food so we had it roll over to the nxt few days...
Coming back to the story.. oh ya, pagi Raya we went solat @ Masjid Md Salleh @ 7am. Alhamdulliah everthing went well expect for 'Abg Abg Kam' kita tak mai dari Australia lagi, so tergendala lah korban for 3 days. Apa boleh buat kan, dugaan ALLAH tu. Terima aje lah...
Tok called aft solat Raya asking me to check out on Nenek & make her morning coffee. Apa lagi bingkas lah lintang pukang pegi rumah Tok right after solat Raya tu. Sebelum tu sempat balik kejap just to panas kan food.. Actually feeling hungry but just had to check nenek out 1st.
Guess???.. aku jatuh kat tangga Blk 6, hai apa lagi benjol lah kepala.. kepala lutut lah. Blue black??? Hai buruk betul lah... mcm mana boleh jatuh ni??? otak fikir benda lain, apa tak jatuh. Apa lah tersungkur nasib tak sembam muka, dah senget nanti saham turun lah, sapa nak susah pulak kau... aiyoh....
We receive sms & kol from Ayah & Mak very often, Alhamdulliah everything went well for them. A few days aft Raya, Ayah sms telling us that its raining very heavily in Mina. Surprising or not it was flooded, I couldnt imagine how it was like until we watch the news a day after. It was really bad & the flood was till the waist, Subhanallah...
Believe it or not... we still hve those dishes given to us by our Aunties & neighbour. Alhamdulliah, we dont hve to cook much. Makan aje apa yg ada asal kenyang, shukur.
I still cannot get over fully abt the Wedding Bells of some jerk thingy.. I met another cousin of him 2 days ago. hai apa lah nasib aku ashik jumpa sepupu sepapat dia.. So I bluntly spit it out saying, " I dengar cousin you dah nikah?"
she said, "yaa, ya, ya....."
"I think his wife is also working in Dubai lah...."
I said, "oh ya ke, is she local?"
"No lah she is Filipino..."
Bingggggoooooooo... I hit the jackpot lah...
Kepala otak dia lah, now I noe who she is. She is the one that his office mate-GiN@ intro him to. I can clearly recall he did told me tht GiN@ gave this Pinoy handphone number to him. I said to him, ok lah tu.. boleh kenal2.. coz I was thinking of anything...
So ALL MY assumtion are 100% accurate... boleh tahan jugak aku ni pandai jadi penyelidik yg tak bertauliah.. haahahaha....
Well Kahwin lah, Nikah lah selagi boleh. Ni dah kali ke 3 ni, entah kali ke 4 tu nxt change kah, coming sooonnnnn kah.. mana lah tahu kan.. Rezeki ALLAH. Jgn tolak kau...
CHENDOL......

Dugaan Ku...
Sesungguhnya, ini lah dugaan ALLAH terhadap umat nya yg sabar. Kerana Dia hanya akan menduga kamu setahap mana yg termampu oleh mu, insya ALLAH...
Mak & Ayah left this morning to the airport @ 7am... send to the airport & they went into departure gate @ around 7.40am. So thats it, I was telling myself to be strong whatever it may take me to fight my feelings... Alhamdulliah aku TABAH menghapainya cuma bila time departure gate to ok lah nangis jugak... So I was telling myself this is the start of my responsibility @ home & towards my sister...
So we left for breakfast @ d T1 canteen, infact I was the 1 who suggested to eat there. While Q for food order, I bumb into someone whom I didnt actually spoken to before. Actually has no relation to me or whatsoever... But noe him due to circumstance... He actually asked me a Question which shock me.
Encik : "soANDso" kahwin hari tu tak pegi?
Me : Tak lah.....!!!! (????!!!!!??? WHATTTT?????)
Encik : ya lah eh tak kan nak pegi pulak kan???
Me : Tak jugak lah tapi kalau di jemput apa salah nya....
Ya ALLAH, betul ke aku dengar nya, rasa nya macam nak suruh rewind what he has just mention... Astarafirullahhalazim....
So Encik paid for my food that I order & thank him... Left to the table wz Mak & Pak Long, FidZ & RaudZ. Broke the news to them. I still couldnt believe my ears, hearing it frm a stanger. HE has spoilt it all again. Its all becoz of him, how could he do that. Telling me that the Wedding is called of becoz of him & all those stuff. & Now I'm listening to the hottest news ever from someone whom I've never had any decent conversation with.. & Ya He's having fun getting married for the 3rd Time... What more can I say, I knew its coming but hearing it from someone else mouth its unbelieveable.. amazing isn't?? wonderful!!! Ya right. Ayah called so I decided to break the news to him coz I do not want to bottle things up for 1 month!!! I dont think I can do that, but I told him not to tell mak yet, I hope he still keep it to himself then.
OK I did my spring cleaning of my Alamari... Its about time lah, thrown almost 50% of the stuffs. at least its looks like there is so much space, nasib lah RaudZ penyabar tolong pack the stuff nicely & neatly from 12noon till almost 9pm we finish up. But I still hve 1 more deck to pack. Will do it tomorrow noon then, Insya ALLAH...
Will start work on Monday on Noon shift, tapi takpe keje till Wed shift petang. Thursday dah petang Raya, tu keje pagi. Then Raya is on Friday, will be on Long Weekend till Monday nxt week. Alhamdulliah...
Doakan Mak & Ayah sihat & selamat sentiasa insya ALLAH...

Well Lucky me, I didnt give up my Saturday AL, or else I will end up taking MC or urgent leave or something.

Three MC's For January 2005
I was down wz Flu 3 days ago. Was at work on Monday but wasnt feeling good. So decided to go down to Dr Chong to obtain an MC, actually I was reluctant to go down coz his medication is not making me any good... with his weird question if i mention I'm having a headache, he will ask which part of the head, if its trooping or just one side.. nonsense question.. i hate to see him but his clinic is the nearest at work. Just like I expected, he only give me cough mixture & some lozenges to suck.. boring. So I just want ahead to Watson to buy some panadols & some cough drops...
So I thought I could get some rest, unfortunately I cant coz there were visitors at home...
The nxt day on 11Jan @ 7.30am, I was getting ready to go to work. I thought I was strong enuf, however I was shaking, shivering cold. I confirm that I was having flu. Only today that I felt much much better aft consistence medication intake...
Its less than a week before my parents leaving for Haj. Alhamdulliah I got ill before they left... But still its ok. Insya ALLAH everything will be fine...

1 Week More...
Mak & Ayah leaving for Haj in abt 1 weeks time.
We've been having visitors for the past few days coming to visit Mak & Ayah...
So I shld be resuming the job hand over by Mak soon. Hai macam mana lah ya nak handle makan & house for 1mths. Mudah2an can handle lah eh. My only concern is R@udZ coz she will be at home & sure if tak ada makan siap lah dia tak makan tu...
Nothing much to story coz tak ada apa2 yg happening lah.
Today they all gathering at rumah tok for kenduri anak beranak, but I'm here working afternoon shift.. nasib lah kan. Luckly dinner was good coz Aini beli kan nasi ayam.. hai sedap tu.
We've yet to heard frm TK & Abg RaZaK abt the plan. Macam mana if they decided not to take the place? Then i will hve to wait again to see where else to venture into. Furthermore I've heard rumors that we'll be 24hrs soon @ Work & now call ops is very strict.. infact extremely. I think I cannot make it lah...
I sold my SH share, make Big Bucks.. power seh.. shiok.
K.. we shall see, if I can leave aft the Big Bonus end of Mar.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2005!!!!
Selamat Tahun Baru 2005.
Apa azam tahun baru anda kali ni???
Actually I didnt posted any new resolution this year. I think its best that way so that I will just go wz the flow when the days, weeks, months & years goes by. I guess circumstance just drives me not to plant in any resolution this time.
I Believe the best resolution is to be a Better Person.
With things going on in the World, its just giving you sign that you need to do something to be someone better than before physically, mentally & everthing.
I was working today, at least I was in the morning shift. I'll be working noon shift ON A SUNDAY.. oh no. Now I'm contemplating to go to work OR I shall we 'sick' tmrw. I'm still considering. To imagine what a beautiful SUNDAY it will be to just be at home, watching TV, eating home cooked food & be near to your love one... woooo best nya.
If you're at work, coming to work at noon, wz the sun just above you head so hot. Then you get some nasty cust on the phone start shouting at you to ON d Services without making payment, later at dinner you have to eat either Mc Donalds or Burger King or KFC again or Delifrance.. aiyoh.. Then you come back to work again answer those calls & go home at 2300H when people are about to go to sleep..... aiyoh how????? Want to go or NOT??? I'll think abt it again.
Have a Peaceful Year Ahead...
