Life is good... I have no complaints

Went out for dinner yesterday, about half-way I realised that the road was jammed packed!!! Damn.. there was a Siti Nurhaliza's concert going on. This also happened last week. As I went out for supper at my regular place, there were so many indonesians around. At first I thought it was an invasion. Hundreds and hundreds of indonesians flocking the streets. Then I realize there was a "Shiela On 7" concert. Hmm.. figures

This is the harzards living on the most happening place in melacca. I'm at the heart of things and I didn't even know it. Maybe I'm just too detached from the outside world. Or just maybe I need a companion to go to this kind of stuff.

Lately I've noticed that I'm singing to myself alot. A habit i picked up from the cute uncle in Sabah. He is quite a whistler. While I just hummed. And this happens especially when I'm really stressed. Maybe my brain is trying release some of it's stress. Anyhow, it's quite theraputic and even when under a heavy workload, I can just smile and sing. (Or maybe I'm just going Cockoo).

Just came back from KL doing some shopping. Bought myself a nice external HDD with 120GB of storage. Now my ultimate PC is nearly done. I have a DVD Combo drive, A Sound Blaster Live card, an LCD Screen Monitor. An Altec Lansing speakers. A HP 2550 color laser printer. Dual Pentium 4 processor. 2GB of DDR RAM. 80GB + 40GB of Internal Storage.

This weekend I'm gonna convert of the room in my house as a Studyroom. Put some air-conditioning. A nice cupboard. (Note to myself, IKEA perhaps). Paint it with a nice lavender tint. (Or maybe wild a shagadelic austin powers chroma.. nahhhh!!). I've got this cool picture frame is made from LCD panel which changes pictures according to the temperature of the room that fits perfecly there. (basically it's just at old stripped down laptop that changes pictures to your likings). The ultimate yuppie's accesories.. just like the Bill Gates' house.

Bosan + benci + boring

Ari ni, lover I called lagi... dah dekat 3 - 4 kali ari ni. dah malas nak angkat. Bukan apa, tak suka dengan perangai asyik dok call sepanjang ari. Nak buat kerja pon tak senang. Tak cukup dengan tu, sambung lagi pulak kat Internet ngan YM + IRC. Pastu tambah ngan SMS lagie. Kalu dok dekat tak pe la jugak. Nie dah le jauh.. kalu borak berjam2. Last2 ujung bulan, mintak kita bayarkan bill telepon + handphone dia. Banyakkk cantekk!!! Macam ler kita chop duit. orang pun ada kerja lain nak buat.. takkan asyik nak layan dia je. Kerja I kat opis tu berlambak2 lagi tak siap.

Skali skala boleh la layan. Nie dah banyak kali dah naik tocang plak. Sorri lah dear, I need to teach you a lesson. Ni bukan caranya bercinta.. dan tak bermakna I tak sayang you. Tapi you kena la respect other ppl privacy. occay!!!

Bila I buat camni.. tahu la pulak nak marah2. Pandai pulak kata "You dah tak sayang I ke?". "Pls jangan tinggalkan I.. I beg of you". "You dah jumpa org lain ke ?".
Kang I buat betul2 kang baru tau.

- Sedutan dari sebuah drama swasta kat TV -

Kekadang ada org ada tak paham dengan konsep cinta dan kasih sayang. Bagi mereka, cinta perlu sentiasa bersama, sex and perhatian. Tapi bercinta dalam erti kata yang sebenarnya bagi saya adalah sikap toleransi, memahami jiwa dan hormat menghormati antara satu sama lain. Walaupun berjauhan dan jarang berkomunikasi, tapi hati tetap senang kerana mereka ini tahu yang hati ini ada yang sayang.

Renungilah...

Tuesday... Trapt !

So many people expect so much from me. And sometimes I don't think I can fullfill all of these expectations. Everyday felt like a struggle and an invisible wire is choking me little by little.. slowly squeezing air out of my lungs.
------------------------------------------------------
9.00 AM:-
My boss wants me to get a colour laser printer... pronto! And amongst the hassle of shuffling through the quotations, other half messaged and wants me to do errands for him. But before I could reply, a collegue came-by and ask to burn some song for a company event. So I sat down and selected the songs to burn.

10.00 AM
Other half message again.. msg "WHY DONT YOU REPLY.. THIS IS URGENT!". As I was about to message him, my other collegue dropped by and asked me to do a whole brochure for a company event. After jotting down what is needed.. I start to do design for the layout.

11.00 AM
Then my boss yelled coz he havent got the quotations yet... "where is the f*ckin quotation". So I'd started with the quotations and literally yelled my vendor to get it ready in time. Run to the fax machine and wait...along the way had a quick smoke.

12.00 AM
Suddenly the otherhalf msg again.. "Why you don't reply.. u don't love me anymore?". As I was about to reply.. Collegue came and ask "Is my CD ready ?". I went back to the office and choose the songs and started burning.

1.00 PM
Another collegue came and ask "When can I get the brochures ready". So I sat down a did the brochures. Then, Boss called again, "Better get the quotation ready by this afternoon.". So I ran to the fax machine to get the last of the quotation. Ran back to the office and upon arriving at the office, wait for the CD to finish burning and packed it to be sent to my collegue's place. By that time it's already lunchtime.

2.00 PM
Had a quick lunch and ran back to the office. A trainee was waiting and wanted to use my computer to print some stuff. While waiting for the printing to finish called-up BF, unfortunately he had closed his HP...merajuk la tu. Opened up PC and check if there is any messaged from my vendor. Found BF's e-mail, all the fuss was about he wants to borrow money from my bank account. Ok.. sent & replied.

3.00 PM
Compiled all the quotation and sent it to my boss's desk. ran back to office.. BF called says sorry. Ok.. fine. sat down and starts doing the brochures. Ran out of ideas. Typed whatever I could managed.

4.00 PM
Vendor called to confirm. Boss already left for Terengganu without any confirmation. Had to wait until he gets back. Met the sports coodinator and lied to him that I can't go to the Track and Field event today. I'm in Shot Putt Training. Finish whatever I can do with the brochures and prints.

5.00 PM
Prepare to go back home but then I felt really tired thus I had a quick nap.

7.00 PM
Woke up.. rejuvinated. But all too late at the office. Drive back home. Had a shower and a quick look at the TV

8.00 PM
Drive out for dinner. Ate at the usual place (alone). Stopped at the Petrol station, get my car checked. Add fuel. Buy some chocolates. Drove back to the office.

9.00 PM
Arrive at the office. otherhalf msg, wants to have a webcam session with him (and the whole family, father / sister / cousins). Afterwards, burn some CD for him.

10.00 PM
Still burning CD...

11.00 PM
Went online and update website, do some programming. Clean my color printer. Korek idung.. bla bla bla.

12.00 PM
CD still burning. Watch some music & movie video clip online.

1.00 AM
Pack my stuff and went back home.

2.00 AM
zzZZZzzzz....



- Oh hell.. some ppl thinks I'm doing nothing at the office and some even wants me to put more attention to what I do. (yeah rite...)

P/S: Last night I found out my handphone rosak. Just after I've topped it up. Just my luck.

Sunday Ramblings....

Since my trip to Sabah.. nothing much has happened. Work as usual. Life is slow in the heart of Melacca.... eat, sleep, work.

As I was browsing the internet the other day, I had read an astonishing story posted in someone's blog. The fact is, it was my story which I had written 4 years back. I had totally forgotten about it. But someone didn't. It made my heart glow with warmth because it was my 1st effort to be a writer. Although nobody knew me, my stories would be the legacy to my existance.

I was young back then.. and foolish.. foolish enough to get myself into a lot of mishaps. But I had recorded those mishaps and posted a few of my stories online. An now, when I see back what I have done.. I had expected regrets. But instead, I felt proud.. because I had endured the experiences and survived. That made the difference.

To the blog writer who had re-posted my story online. Thank you for keeping my stories alive online and who knows, even after I'm gone, the stories would still be there to enlighten the lives of chubbies around us.

Sabah Trip

A nice cute uncle I met on my recent trip to Sabah. Among the places that I went was The Tenom Coffee Factory, The Sabah Agriculture Park and a few other places around Keningau.

Sabah Trip 2004

Just came back from Sabah. I had a very lovely time there. Met some old friends and made some new friends too.

A million thanks to Chubmashimaro for being the best tourguide there is.
