Ooppsss..they did it again!!!

As always, sum1 did notified bout the hike in the oil price last night thru the msn messenger, but i didn't really bother about it cos i've just refilled my car petrol yesterday, after work. Lucky me?!, yah..for this week.Lets do some calculation here on how much i've saved by the bell:

Price per litre (before 28/2/06): RM1.62 (Shell)
Refilled: RM30.00 (i got few litres more left in the tank..), so
How many litres i've bought: RM30.00 / RM1.62 = approx. 19L
My luck on oil price this week: RM0.30 * 19L = RM5.70 (that's a lot and equivalent to my 2 days lunches...)

How i wish that i leave in a place where i dun have to drive to work, where everything is in walking distance. There ought to be some other way to solve the problem on the government's burden on the subsidy, dun u think? It's expected that this hike is gonna be the first and the last for this year. Sound great? But, think again, there were few increases of petrol hike last year but each hike costs RM0.10 and this time its once and costs RM0.30 starting early of the year!!!

Last weekend was not so great. I woke up early for the 2 days. On Sat, i woke up early to do laundry then cook lunch. A simple one though cos i have not shop for groceries after my parent's trip mid-feb. Then, i felt lazy, so just lazying around and watched a korean DVD, "April Snow". Gosh, the movie's storyline was so slow sampe i mok tertido. However, i did watched it until the ending. Late in the evening, went to Semarak to see Arthur. After that, went to Hartamas to see Den's frens. About 10.30pm, went to Bangsar to see Den's colleagues.. ok kua..at least occupied with activities.

Ha..talking about Sunday. Oh yah..before that, on Sat there's this b*ngsat sms and give me few missed calls. One of them:"Hi sayang, dah balik kerje ke? Sayang rindu kat abang"..WTF!!!then, followed by i think about 5 missed calls. I was so pissed off so i somehow changed the setting of my hp to a silent mode for that no. i tried to ban that particular no. but i didn't know how. Eiee..geram!!

Ok, back to Sunday. As usual, i will try to wake up before 9.30am to catch SpongeBob. so, i woke up at around 9.19am and checked my hp. To my suprise, there were 2 miss calls and i didn't realised about it!It's from Angie and Siew Ling(SL). They were asking whether i was working that day cos SL needs to inform sum1 on duty that she'll be late cos currently she is stuck in the jam at batu 3 toll due to flood!!! I jumped out of my bed and looked outside, wallawei...mcm tasik. And the traffic was so jammed!!i baru ingat nak shopping for groceries cos i only got a can of sardin and 2 packs of MYOJO, MI KOLOK SARAWAK..sikdalah nyaman gilak juak...so, disambungkan cerita, aku makan instant mee jak lah for lunch. i couldn't go anywhere cos my hse was surrounded by the flooded areas. Actually, i wanted to go to church that Sunday..ya lah dah lamak i sik pg church koh...tp, banjirlah pulak. Tp, i kesian those staying in TTDI Jaya landed hse lah nak...sik sempat save anything, cars and stuffs. Tenggelam semua..About 6, i went to Carrefour beli stock. Takutlah tetiba banjir gik, makan bubur dgn gula/kicap jak aku kelak...mok pg Giant, jalan abis licak and aik agik bertakung.

Yarabi, panjang juak entry aku hari tok. Alu sik start keja gik tok..oh yah, i've submitted an application for MBA in OUM last night. Hopefully dpt la..I've been wanting to do my MBA since last year but due to some financial consideration, it was delayed. So, i made the 1st move last night by filling in the online form. Mun dpt, i want to join Sept intake and kenak ambik loan lah..*sigh*, k lah..bye for now....

THank God, TomORrow's FRidAy

Gosh...it's gonna be Friday again tomorrow. Should i be relieved that the week's over or sad cos the days are running fast and i'm still here, no achivement yet!!I'm so penniless to pursue my dream. Mok study, nak kenak molah loan, agik sik cukupkah loan aku yg bergunung-ganang ya...nok dah ada pun, tertonggeng aku nak mayar koh...*sigh*

Baby Dandell's first birthday falls on the 15th of Mac, next month. Miskin lagik...actually dah miskin dah pun, i've called Nora to help me to handle the 'birthday celebration'. Everyone's off to a meeting, and me looking busy tapping the keyboard, blogging, be it updating the blog or read sum1 else's blog. Its damn boring today, i'm sick of the ignorant students, not all but 1 student can just blow my mind off!!They are so ignorant, what's it with today's kids. They r so ignorant on their studies. Aku yg sik ignorant dolok pun, terkial2 mok cari kerja, lagiklah daknya tok kelak...Wargh...sumone hire me pleaaasseeee...mun dpt jadi Tai-Tai gik best hor... ;p

It's just 4pm and i can't wait to go home...lack of motivation, lazy, sleepy..all sorts of things. I've planned my weekends already. I need to refresh cum motivate cum 'reincarnate' myself so i decided to go to church this sunday. Lord Jesus, forgive me for neglecting you for quite sometime...;(

I browsed thru my Jobstreet moments ago, to my suprise, the job that i dreamt about is gone. Just few days ago, i was under consideration, actually 1 / 410..hahahhaa..*dream on to get the job*, thought so. Tp, still sedih gak, cos i need to get out of this place right now!!!Desperately...some of the applications were to a small coys, so doesn't matter right, does it?I don't know. I better start that professional course now, before i'm too old to compete in the rat race and in the end dah sik laku di pasaran gik...kuang..kuang..kuang!!

Called my darling Didau two days ago. Guess what she was doing??She was flipping the Courts Mammoth catalogue!!My goodness, what was she thinking? I thought she has lotsa colouring books, story books and stuffs. No wonderlah miak kinek tok makin advance, pandey nangga katalog indah. She is so cute, kinda miss her.

Alamak, pening palaklah...till then..

Memoirs of the lift..

As soon as the lift incident happened few minutes ago, i knew that i need to blog about it.

This morning, i grabbed a Sun newspaper and came across a story about this malay guy, staying in an apartment, top floor (can't recall which floor anyway...). He was late to work, so decided not to join the crowd waiting for the lift, he took the staircase. After few floors, he reached 5th floor and saw the lift door was opened and nobody's in. So, without giving any 2nd thought, he leaped into the lift and fell. The lift was actually empty, i mean without the floor!!!!The poor guy died on the spot.

Me, on the other side, being someone having phobia for heights found that news was rather a terrifying one. I started to make sure that the lift is actually safe to go in (i mean with the floor), before i entered. But, i was thinking what if the guy was actually saw the lift was safe and something else urged him to go in...gosh...stop thinking about it.

So, few minutes ago, in need to pass some documents to my boss at 6th floor. Btw, my office is in 1st flr. So, after minutes waited for the lift, the lift came and quite occupied with students (btw, i'm working in a college). So, i told myself "i believe they have space for someone petite as me", and i squeezed myself in. So, we stopped at 2nd floor and few students went in and out. The door closed and moving to 3rd flr. Suddenly, the lift just fell with a 'thud' sound. Me, being someone who cursed a lot and it actually come out from my mouth easily shouted "SHIT"!!i was so terrified ok!!i'm so very scared of heights. If only i have choice to travel home without taking a flight...*sigh*

Gosh, enough of terrifying moments today..gotta get back to work.

oNe FiNe DaY...















See this flower (courtesy of COACH..), its so captivating! i put it as my desktop wallpaper. All my life, i always fall in love with flowers. I even dream of having my own florist. Well..that's my biggest problem, too many dreams in life and NONE has actually materialised. Lack of proper planning and no priority i reckon...I resigned from my previous job to give way to my study, which was a MBA at that time. After deepest thought of the cost, i now planned to do my ACCA. In the end, both have not materialised...arghhh....i always have the 2nd thought and it always supersedes the 1st intention. What if i have 2nd thought on my wedding day??

Okay, lets just forget about what's running in my mind. I'm currently looking for a job, browsing thru the jobstreet and sent few applications. It was fun when you logged in to ur JS and found out that your applications are marked as "Under consideration", at least some hope there. But, it will be such a turn-off when you actually notice that total applicants under consideration is actually 400++. What on earth that makes u think you can be the chosen one among the 400++ applicants..??!!And i actually applied for a temporary job in an oil/gas industry, but was not sure how 'temporary' is that temporary..might consider it if they are willing to hire me.

I'm out of ideas on what to write...till then...

St. Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day everyone...

How's ur valentine's day's celebration? Mine was "awesome". I was spending my valentine's day in the car with Arthur (bro.) in a jam. Mum, Dad, Grandma and Jill went back home last night. After sending them off on a 7.00pm plane, me and athur made our way to Semarak. Then, after a smooth journey along the Seremban highway, we were caught in a super duper F****NG jam just before the sungai besi tol plaza until Semarak. i took us about 4 hours to reach Semarak. Pity Arthur who was driving..he lit few ciggies and sip some vodka (which he tapao from my house..). Today my body is aching all over. Guess tonight i have to get off to bed early. Furthermore, after a week spent with parents around the house, last night onwards i was and will be alone again. I could see mum's tears yesterday. i tried my best not to cry also..otherwise i'll catch flu today.

Honey is away still...sms me thru digi online. Miss him so terribly. Our 1st valentine's without each other. But, i do believe everyday is valentine's day. Can't wait to see him this friday. Talking about him, his parents came to see my parents last friday. They were talking about having a little engagement ceremony. Gosh..i'm a big girl!!i tried not to smile that night cos i felt that it was funny to think of getting married. Our courting anniversary falls on 13th of February. So, this year is the 7th year of romance. Mak ai..ni kalau budak, dah boleh masuk sekolah ni...

gotta get back to work now...

So cute...

This is too cute not too share




To be able to appreciate the following, you have first to know the Lord's
Prayer.......

Our Father who is in Heaven,
Hallowed by Thy name
Thy Kingdom come
Thy will be done on earth
As it is in Heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us
And lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil
For thine is the Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory
Forever and ever.
Amen.

Jesus' Dad's Name

A Sunday school teacher asked her class, "What was Jesus' mother's name? "

One child answered, "Mary."
The teacher then asked, "Who knows what Jesus' father's name was?"
A little kid said, "Verge."
Confused, the teacher asked, "Where did you get that?"
The kid said, "Well, you know they are always talking about Verge n'
Mary.''

***********
KIDS IN CHURCH
3-year-old, Reese:
"Our Father, Who does art in heaven, Harold is His name. Amen."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A little boy was overheard praying:
"Lord, if you can't make me a better boy, don't worry about it.
I'm having a real good time like I am."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Sunday school class was studying the Ten Commandments.


They were ready to discuss the last one.
The teacher asked if anyone could tell her what it was.
Susie raised her hand, stood tall, and quoted,
"Thou shall not take the covers off the neighbor's wife."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After the christening of his baby brother in church,
Jason sobbed all the way home in the back seat of the car.
His father asked him three times what was wrong.
Finally, the boy replied,
"That preacher said he wanted us brought up in a Christian home, and I
wanted to stay with you guys."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I had been teaching my three-year old daughter, Caitlin, the Lord's Prayer

for several evenings at bedtime, she would repeat after me the lines from
the prayer.
Finally, she decided to go solo.
I listened with pride as she carefully enunciated each word right up to the
end of the prayer:
"Lead us not into temptation," she prayed, "but deliver us some E-mail.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

One particular four-year-old prayed,
"And forgive us our trash baskets as we forgive those who put trash in our
baskets."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Sunday school teacher asked her children, as they were on the way to
church service,
"And why is it necessary to be quiet in church?"
One bright little girl replied,
"Because people are sleeping."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Six-year-old Angie and her four-year-old brother Joel were sitting
together in church.
Joel giggled, sang, and talked out loud.
Finally, his big sister had had enough.
"You're not supposed to talk out loud in church."
"Why? Who's going to stop me?" Joel asked.
Angie pointed to the back of the church and said,
"See those two men standing by the door?
They're hushers."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A mother was preparing pancakes for her sons, Kevin, 5 and Ryan 3.
The boys began to argue over who would get the first pancake.
Their mother saw the opportunity for a moral lesson.
"If Jesus were sitting here, He would say,
'Let my brother have the first pancake, I can wait.'"
Kevin turned to his younger brother and said, "Ryan, you be Jesus!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A father was at the beach with his children
When the four-year-old son ran up to him, grabbed his hand, and led him to
the shore
where a seagull lay dead in the sand.
"Daddy, what happened to him?" the son asked.
"He died and went to Heaven," the Dad replied.


The boy thought a moment and then said,
"Did God throw him back down?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A wife invited some people to dinner. At the table, she turned to
their six-year-old daughter and said, "Would you like to say the
blessing?"
"I wouldn't know what to say," the girl replied.
"Just say what you hear Mommy say," the wife answered.
The daughter bowed her head and said, "Lord, why on earth did I invite
all these people to dinner?"


Only JESUS can turn ........a MESS into a MESSage .......a TEST into a

I'm sick already...

I 'm already sick today. Will go and see the doctor later, noon time. Well, depends if i can stand the cold. Otherwise i just can see the doc very soon and get the MC and go home. Then again, will be on leave this friday till next tuesday. I can't wait for February to ends and see how many days i have actually worked this month..*productive days should be lesser...*

Can't really sleep last night. My nose was blocked but somehow it was so hot and i have to let the fan blew right to my face, making things worst. My throat really kills me now. It hurts whenever i try to swallow anything, even liquid. And the d**n phlegm making me feel even sicker (or was it more sick?..watever..) Dear Lord, i dun wanna get sick cos my parents, grandma and Jill is coming. I've promised to bring them to a trip and i dun want them to just stay at home and watch me in agony...Amen. (though i have not going to church for quite some time now..sob..sob..forgive me dear lord)

Wanna know how i got sick? I was watching this 25M HOAX show last sunday's night. My first actually, cos apparently the signal of 8tv was not that clear in my house. So, everything went ok until the parts where the family members were interviewed. It was all about the family getting together not about the money..though i bet "who the h**L doesn't want that much of money. But still family first. I strucked me and i was being so sentimental and cried!! Thts's how it all started. It happened for few times already. Any medical explanation? Now, i understand my body more. You don't want to go to work tomorrow, cry tonight. Cos, the next day you'll get sore throat and eligible for an MC.

I'm kinda hungry right now. I didn't had my dinner last night. My throat hurts so much. I now, in teh office with the a/c i feel cold and dizzy. Should get an MC asap...

I feel sick duh....

I dunno what's wrong with me today..i think it's because i'm alone in the office..lonely...i feel lonely..ahaks....i feel sick already, i had watery eye. i really have an instinct that i should see an optometrist (isit??alah...doktor mata tu lah..) and my vision kinda getting blurry. Worst thing, i can't really have a clear vision when driving at night. But, right now, i'm so penniless to get a good spec...uhuks!!!Apsal, aku rasa kan, aku makin miskin duh, semenjak aku kerje ni. Dulu kaye gak skit masa study. Masa study boleh gak aku beli baju , sekarang ni kalo tak sale, jgn arap aku nak beli baju. Nak harapkan window shopping jerlah...

Bilerlah aku nak dpt kerja baru ni? Guess what??I'm looking for a new job already..*together everyone, "AGAIN!!"*Yes, again. After a few months working in an administration field. What was i thinking when i signed the offer letter again??I couldn't recall.Mmm..was i thinking? Cos, most of the time i don't. Whose fault??Erm...mine i guess...Well, btw i started to look for a job that requires me to see numbers again, to utilise my calculator and MS Excel though i'm such a sucker in numbers. I need help here, how to determine what you want to do with your life? So lucky those that know exactly what they want and are sailing smoothly towards it right now. At the age of 26, i guess i need to settle in a good company with good pay and enjoy the goddamn job. C'mon Carol, for goodness sake...stay put for at least about 2-3 years. I wanted too..but i have too many dreams and doesn't really know how to prioritise..

Ok, enough of the craps...i need to get back to work now. Its 4.30pm. Do some works and packed up and chiao...c'yah!

Once upon a boring day in Subang...


Its a damn boring day today. Sometimes i just hate holidays, obviously hated them when i had to stay in the house doing nothing. Sometimes i thought that i'm an innie but certainly am not when i find out that the house is too hot to be in...indecisive me..

Just finished reading one of my story book which i bought somewhere in August 2005 in a second hand store nearby. Den was so puzzled when i told him that i've finished the book. "I wonder why can't u finish the Da Vinci Code's" he asked. Don't blame me if i say that we are not in the same boat. I don't really fancy that kind of story book. He accused me of being interested to book which contains "sex" thingy in it..WTF!!I just don't like it and no question asked..

I'm bored to death today. Almost 80% of the office is empty. Now, i can only hear the sound of my keyboard, the internet radio and the buzz of the a/c. I can't wait to end the day at 1630. I need to go somewhere to ease my mind. Stress due to the boredom..not good aight...

What did i do during the long holidays?Day 1: Went to a friend's house for CNY. Filled myself up with the food. Day 2: Thought of going to Cameron but ended up in a long jam along the highway. Finally diverted to Tg Malim for a turn. What a day..i thought so. Reached KL and went for THE DESCENT. Not a bad one but the ending puzzled me. Day 3: Stayed at home and read a book. Day 4: Went to a relocation sale, found nothing interesting. Bought few things for Den. Day 5: Its TODAY..a BORING DAY!!!z...zzz.z..z.zz..z.zz..z.z.ZZ...Z...z..z.Z....
