Dear Danny

Feeling sleepy after lunch is a 天公地道 punya issue.
To avoid drinking coffee or tea, I usually read some blogs before resuming my work.

Yes, I still read blogs, although I don't do it that often,
and using Google Reader is so much simpler nowadays.

But sometimes when I feel itchy here and there and want to leave comments
I will have to click and browse the blog, and I just did.

And to my surprise, Danny le Big Mouth is against my company's access policy.
Reason being? Sila click to enlarge the print screen.



Since when his blog falls under the PORN category? LOL!

Dear Santa (2011)

I've been a very very good boy this year, achieved quite a number of 1st times, well travelled, et al. Hence, I bet you are smart enough to guess what's on my mind right? Right Santa? Right right??

1. Watch!! (I'm ok with G-Shock or Swatch, no need Rolex)
2. A pair of dumbbell & yoga mat (to workout at home at times after OT)
3. Working pants & shirts & belt (Topman pants + G2 shirts）
4. Wallet maybe? (DGMultiple?)
5. Laptop yes laptop!! (cannot simply save 'things' in company's laptop)
6. A pair of leather shoes (Hush Puppies has my size!)
7. Bubu che！(I'm ok with Myvi, thou Ford Fiesta is nice)
8. My very own place! (Apartment/Condo is ok, no need landed property)

Ok Santa, I'm done! Just 8 for this year and well, thank you very much!

xoxo

Silent Sunday

心情好的时候，一个人在家等于悠闲自在。
心情差的时候，一个人在家等于孤寂难耐。



Just realised that I have not spoken to anyone today, except for 4 cashiers, and myself. A very very Silent Sunday.

Moments.

I can smile all day long, because of you.
I can go sleepless all night long, also because of you.

These love & hate moments we had, have, and having?



I should get myself a pair of swim trunk, goggles, a decent & quiet pool, and start swimming.

(or just dipping in the water, looking at the sky, and think freely.)

天气会说话

所以难怪今天是阴天。



就算把太阳穿在身上也于事无补。

留給你

我有的不多，卻願意把最好的都留給你。

For myself

I have decided to do things according to my confidence and real ability, not to accommodate what others want me to do by smelly threat.

To run or not to run?

That is a big fat question.

Penang Bridge Marathon next month. I am currently being pressured to join, not to run another 10km but a half marathon, a.k.a. 21km! 21km!!! 21km!!!!!!!

I'm truly worried. I don't think I'm ready for such a distance, such a challenge. Moreover if I am to run I will only have a month time to prepare, which I seriously don't think I will manage to do it good.

But looking at the brighter side, if I manage to finish 21km, it will become another record for myself for 2011, completing a half marathon! And this is the only bright side I can think of.

How now?

I don't want to faint in the middle of Penang bridge. Amat memalukan. :(

$_$

That shows how desperate i am in need of money.

However, hmm my proposal on working weekends was not approved by certain authority, plus that hr fella did not call me to confirm the interview.

Le sigh.... So how now? So many debts, expenses and loans to pay for, somemore need to save for future plan. I weally dunno how.

Any dato or datins need any fresh meaty pork belly?

$_$"

S....day

Work has been slow for the past few weeks, which to be a bit bit honest hor, causes everyone to be a bit bit slacky. However things will be catching up real soon as October draws near, need to start my motor ke engine ke sayap ke again.

And come to think of it, it is Wednesday tomorrow, like... mid week only?!?!?!

Feeling a lil bit shitty but happy in the same time, because I always look forward to the weekends, althou I do need to work on many Saturdays.



Coming up is an part-time job interview this weekend. Fingers croxxed! If i get it, i'll have no life. If i don't get it, i'll have no extra $$$$.

Life is full of love & hate relationship, don't you think so?

Merry Macarons!

This expensive little French pastry is hitting the town slowly. And sadly, I'm one of the sweety-toothy victim who is falling for it. :(



I tasted the above at Whisk KL, Empire Shopping Gallery. They offer up to 8 flavours per day, out of many many traditional and self-create flavours.

The best one I've tried from their kitchen is Cafe Creme! The filling, the texture, the crust, omfg damn orgasmic!!!

Note- If you have no idea what to get me as gifts, be it Christmas, birthday, Valentines or even CNY, get my a box of yummy macarons!

Move on!

If you feel stuck up at work for no reason.



How do I look? LOL!

Fingers croxxed!

Happy Malaysia Day!

My dear country, today is your actual birthday, the day you were formed 48 years ago!

As a fellow citizen, I promise you to do my part, by going home and vote in the next general election. UNDIlah! :)



Have you registered to be a voter? :)



And I spent half of my day here, dinnered with 6 of my closer friends.

Will be travelling to Janda Baik for the weekend, to rest and relax away from the city.

Hope you enjoy yours too!

McDay 3

Sicky me, visited the doc again for the 3rd time and got her advice to take today off. 'Stop being stubborn' she said, well she didn't really said it but I felt literally being slapped by her. Ouch!

Meanwhile tomorrow is Malaysia Day, which directly means that I've only worked for ONE day this week. Not sure if I should feel happy or not, since Performance Appraisal is around the corner.

And guess what I bought for breakfast, lunch and dinner? Bread & Nutella!



Nom nom nom nom. I'm a sick but happy lil boy!
I'm still constantly checking emails, replying calls and such.

Sakit dan Kekok

Another contradicting post compare to the below. I haven't been very well ever since the haze is around. Haze is not a very good friend of people like me, with allergies and sinusitis.

It is my 2nd MC this week, 1st was on Monday. Doctor actually wanted me to rest for 2 days, but i pandai pandai declined and got bad in the office yesterday. Hence i am resting at home again today, avoiding the air con and people.

Lucky enough, it rained heavily! The air is so refreshed and hazeless. I can open the balcony door wide now, and enjoy my warm Milo!



Going for a weekend getaway to Janda Baik. Must get well asap!

Sihat dan Kuat

Selepas minum Milo lah tu, kononnya.

Seems to be a good morning to start laundry and stuffs. It is a routine for singlehoodie like myself who stays alone, everything has to be in DIY style.

Right?

我hold住了blogger！

千呼万唤下等待已久的App终于漫出来了！！！

现在应该没有不更新的借口了，瓜！

are you happy? no happy?

I was 'lucky' enough to be nominated as a committee member of this year's staff trip, with no experience of organizing or assisting such as huge project, involving more than 1000 stuffs across 3 campuses, for 7 round of trips to 4 different locations.

And I tell you, the hardest part is not about organizing it, but to satisfy everyone, to make them happy, all 1000 of them, which is rather a MISSION IMPOSSIBLE!?



But anyhow, it was ('is' actually, cause there are 5 more trips to go before the whole project ends) an eye opener, being able to observe how colleagues from different departments work do their things, and to compare them with my own department, who does things in a maximum CBS way. :)

*CBS - Cover Back Side

I lost my cool at work

Right after I posted the entry below. How... contradicting right???

What happened was, this bitch quoted my statement, a twisted version to be exact, in an email, and sent to many senior managements involved in some unfortunate incident.

And after we had a happy time cat fighting on FB, childishly.

Seriously, she's a well known pain in the ass character in the company, having this very rude and no class attitude, swearing and cursing non stop over petty issues. In short, BITCH!

Maybe it is simply because she felt unsecured & trying to self-protect,



for being nicknamed TOMMYBOY?

ありがとう

(Trying to be positive minded)

Thank you for creating the smelly crap shit, which has directly given me an opportunity to advance myself in new shit cleaning techniques, best of all performing it in a smarter, speedier, quieter and most importantly, vogue-er way! :)



谢谢你，让我不负众望地hold住了整个场面！

Dear Malaysians

Forgiveness doesn't change the past

My 2nd 10km

I did it again!


Yesterday, I took part in this jogathon-ish event called Jog For Hope. It is a charity event organized by students of Taylor's College Sri Hartamas, with the help of advisers. Successfully organized, 1600 runners showed up at the event, and they manage to raise RM25,000 for Treehuggers and PT Foundation.

Well there were 2 reasons why I was in. 1, to support the kids in TCSH, the Taylorians. 2, to challenge myself further and so I did, completed 10km in 1 hour and 5 minutes, 8 minutes faster than previous. Consider as an improvement right? And it felt ok, not as tough last the 1st time.

Some runners told me, the more you run, the more you'll get addicted and thus you'll run even more!

My next run will be another 10km, the Parkcity Run in November, and my target is to complete it in less than 1 hour. I believe I can do it!

Run Alan Run~! :)

Is your boss always right?

There is this set of rules followed by dunno who.



Rule No.1 - The boss is always RIGHT.
Rule No.2 - When the boss is wrong, refer back to Rule No.1?

Which is something I am very DL now.

The day was bad enough already with events postponed and cancelled, budgets to rush and so on and i guess she chose just the very right time to sink me deeper.

2011的前半段，我...

跑了人生的第一次Marathon

也算是一种Achievement吧？虽然只是短短的10km。

for your information...

i'm still alive & kickin' asses



while munching breakky. hehe~
