Baby Love...
Saturday, November 17, 2007
What a day to begin a Saturday...
Suddenly out of no where, she hands me my old love letter which I thought I threw away loooooooooong time ago in KL. I was speechless and left the table. I seriously did not know what to say but it was an awkward situation. She said it was ok but I know what she was thinking.
I could not know how to explain to her or how the freaking letter got mixed with her papers / photos.
It was years back but I really don't wanna talk about the content of that particular letter.
I am cool with the past but somethings should just have remained untold forever.
It's the moment of life when it happenned and you just do not wanna go back there again.

TGIF 0n 2nd Day Deepavali
I left around 2.30pm and headed to Kapitan Keling for nasi kandar. Had the ussual chicken and fish egg.
Went home later and slept. Seriously knocked out. Woke-up to the call of Daryl who ask me go with him to "punch- card" @ makan at ussual hang-out place. I was in a daze. I told him I will fetch him later and go to work together to punch-card. I felt like I had awaken to a Saturday morning and it was time to go to work. It was actually still Friday around 6.30 pm and Daryl had invited me for the ussual pork spare-parts soup in town. He was laughing on the phone as he knew I was really blur and told me to call him later. Jeez man. I was so blur when he called. Haha!
Viran (ex-St Xavier ) called me and told me wanted to meet up at night after dinner. Made a few calls and managed to round up a couple of the boys for beer at Torch. It had been ages since I last went to Torch. We had a good solid 2 buckets!
It was nice catching up with all and reminiscing on the past and talking about the plans for the future. We still cannot imagine who Gary went out with back then those days... Hahha! Hot chick from CGL back then. Well mostly the memories and the things that we found to be important to us at that time were rekindered.
Gary then suggested go to Tari Cafe for supper around 2 am. Surprisingly it was not cheap. Burger ayam special cost RM 5.50 which was kinda expensive. Gary said the prices have risen since he last went.
Everyone was feeling high or am I speaking for myself??? Haha! Yeah I am high right now but took the trouble to key this down as it was a milestone in this years social gatherings.
Nice catching up with old friends and talking about the history that led us to who we are today.
God bless St Xaviers!
P.S. I still think the teachers and principal suck big time!

Tuesday 6/11/2007 runaway from office plan...
However, the eve of Wednesday this week, Tuesday, duhhhh... Ruby had organized for a get together with me and Alex. We have been old friends for quite some time now but never had the opportunity to hang-out together. Btw, all from Dell. I guess our lives started with Dell. Hehe! Kak Suzie was suppose to join tapi maklumlah kakak sibuk dgn tugasan2 back-end dier... Tugasan2 back-end sounds a bit speculative but it is clean Dell work related tasks. Haha!
Anyhow, we planned to watch this vampire movie. God, I am so bad with names and too malas to go Google it. I sincerely thought it would be another round of epic horror with me hiding in my t-shirt like Ju-On but the movie was partially horrific and action packed just as Alex mentioned prior to watching.
Then Rubz wanted go shopping so Alex and I stood my the balcony in front of the shops chatting about life, family, work and cars!!!
Alex suggested pizza which I didnt really mind as it has been a while. Rubz mentioned that he has been talking about eating pizza for weeks and he was really hoping that all of us would agree with him.
Went to Pizza Hut and Alex was busy ordering and we were like nodding with whatever he ordered. The food was great and the choice of pizza was good. We had a great time.
Also, Alex thought us Monster House, I think that was the name of the arcade game. Basically, the goal is simple that is too shoot the zombies as much as we can. Alex was the champion as predicted and you should see the dude shooting two guns at a time one in each hand.
It was a great time as it has been a while since went out of the house to do something so cool!
Sorry I had to censor the jokes and hillarious events that happen during this outing due to viewer discretion. But if you heard it you would wish you were with us! Haha!

The end of October...
With the busyness of work, nothing much done lately. Just hanging out at Old town, Coffee Bean and Starbucks to chill!
It was great meeting up with Joni and Carie at McD GreenLane on Friday night. Can see everyone is happy though we all not working together. It was good catching up with Joni after so long. Vote for her in One-In-A-Million! A lot of new things to talk about including the topic of Trevor's love life! :P Jeezz... So kay po! But I know ppl care for me.... Thanks! Muakz!
Took leave for Friday to go for Douglas(my nepwhew) first birthday. It has been ages since I met up with my bro in KL. Going down with dad in the Myvi. Just chill and hang as it has been a while. When I moved to Penang, I pictured myself going back to KL often but seems like hanging out more in Penang. Well Trev in the end what does Penang have to offer you??? Sigh...
Ok enough of feeling emo as it's Sunday night and tommorrows work...
Christmas is coming up so starting to think of presents.
All I want for Christmas is a tool set including wranch! Hahah! I really hope can get this from parents!!! A 1-ton jack would be kinda nice too...

Survivor
I had 2 trainings to attend which ended on Friday after 2 weeks. It was valuable as I learnt a lot about speaking skills and handling deliveries with a breeze(or should I say let's hope! ).
Nonetheless come weekend, I did nothing but chill. Took the Volvo to change the bulb. Ended testing the mechanics 240 Volvo which he intends to sell. He asked me to offer price which I am still considering. He said cheap cheap lah coz he already got 5 and gonna buy another one. His wife and neighbours screwing him as his exact words. Surprisingly after seeing me grow up as a kid, he just let me take the car out for a spin. It was great behind the wheel of a Volvo. The feeling of solidness and security was there. It was a great car though already 27 years old! It had that nostalgia feeling while on the road. I basically grew up with Volvos, hence the temptation of owning one. I only go for 80s and 90s models coz reminds me of the time dad had them and drove me in.
Yes! I finally went to dentist for scaling after 3 years! I could not remember having a record with the clinic in Gelugor but they managed to locate my details. I had this fear of going dentist. Dad was like why never go so long and advised me to take these health things more seriously. The last visit was in 2004.
Reached home just in time to wash my car which was not washed for 2 weeks. Went to church and followed by dinner with the folks and my aunts and uncles from KL and England. The Myvi is just great and I happy with it. We have bonded and have this attachment. Typical of single ppl. Get a life Trev! Haha!
Later that night, met my Volkswagon buddy at Esplanade. We chatted for almost 2 hours about cars and his family life. Tommorrow, have plans to meet up with him at Pantai Robina as they having monthly VW gathering. I am just going for fun and see what is all the fuss about the Beatle!
Interestingly enough, I learnt something kinda true from the VW guy.
People can never have enough in life. The things missing they want the most but the things they already have they don't take time to realize and appreciate.
Still in my chill mode and may watch some series of the OC. Suba my colleague always thought that OC is Orphan Child. It's actually Orange County for those who don't know.
Btw, Astro sux. They revamped all the channels and I don't know where the channels are now. Dad was like you didnt know of the change. Please explain to me when have I last watched the telly! Haha!

Frozen in time and money!
Working so far has been an enjoying adventure filled with ups and downs. But I cannot deny the glitter in me when it's the end of the month; pay day!
Yes we do deserve what we earn and we have to reward ourselves with the efforts we put in!
However, it also would be wise to save money! I know this sounds like advise coming from some senior but this did strike me where I am heading to in terms of financial stability.
As ussual, I started Googling tips on how to save money. Save money and earn money is different!
What certainly striked me was a rather unussual but somewhat interesting tip. Most of my finding on Google blame credit cards for the reason why people over-spend.
The tip was to place your credit card into a tupper -ware and fill the tupper- ware (yes and the card with safe water) and cover the tupper-ware with the lid.
Once done, put the tupper-ware in the freezer!!!
Leave for 3 hours and then look at it. Frozen credit card!
The reason for this is to disable the use of the card, hence, saving money!
Alternatively, maybe we can train the mine to save and spend wisely.
The credit card is still useful no doubt in emergency situations.

From this to that...
Thursday was badminton and Bukit Dumbar. I hadn't played badminton in like 1 year plus. Was really tiring and really sweated. I don't think I have sweat like that in a long time.
Friday was dinner / tea time appointment with Daryl and Hazel. Agenda : Pigs spare parts soup at Penang Road. RM 6.50 per bowl would get you bee hoon soup with pigs brains, liver, intestine and other scrumptous "spare parts". It was good. Went to fetch my Operations Manager and headed to Northam Cafe for ikan bakar, dim sum, rojak and sausages. Basically tit-bits. Then went to Screwball to play foose ball with Michelle, Hazel's sister. It was really good coz get to practice with beginner as well. Then pool with Daryl. Lucky you Daryl. There is always next time! :P
Then dropped everyone home before proceed to Church Street cafe for Carie's bday beer session.
The next day woke up to my mom complaining to me for 2 hours about my bro's new baby-sitter who left. Skip the details! :)
Went online and chilled until 12.30 pm before heading to Gurney with Steven Lo for lunch and then went window shopping. Nothing much also lah coz sale finish mah. Btw, I haven't been to Gurney in 3 months. I am becoming the average guy who only goes shopping when there is a need. Haha!
Then hung out at Coffee Bean with my couz as Steven had to go home. Lepak at the new Coffee Bean at G-hotel.
Went home , ON notebook then slept. Woke up, mandi, went to church with mom and aunt.
Came home and online again with me and my mom figuring out on Google Earth which part of Gibraltar my aunt is staying. Lost and inaccurate description.
11pm tampal my Myvi stickers and went for the TT in greenlane. Agenda: Round the island tour at midnight. It was kinda like Initial D the movie with dark bending roads and dangerous corners. Said a little prayer and safely reached Teluk Bahang Dam. Lepak there 1 hour and then came home at 2.45 am to update you guys. :P

Gwen in Malaysia... for real?

Who to blame?
Human error = driver error = unfit = 13 summons and 2 arrest warranties!
Solution: Interlink each and every citizens personal information with records of goverment agencies in one database. For an IT savvy nation, it is not a problem. We talk so much about how good we are, well it's time to put our talents to good use. I mean we have high end identity cards. Why cant the data be linked and incorporated together. Come on... just a little more work. Why not outsourcing if it is too hard to create something like this? Atleast it will be of bennefit and of good use back to the government.
On a more spiritual note, I pray that the lives lost will rest in peace and will find eternal peace in God's kingdom.
Not forgetting the lives of the families impacted by this gruesome human massacre.

An escappe to KL
Supposedly to wake up at 3.45 am but in the end woke up at 7.30 am thanks to my new pillow.
Left at 9 a.m. and reach Subang at around 1 pm. It was a good drive in the Volvo considering after being serviced.
Hanged out at my bro place. My bro and nephew went out for my nephew's friends bday. I was so bored at home. Dad wanted me to download the guy who recreated his own Negaraku, hence, did it. Oh dad transfered pics of his Euro trip with mom to my laptop. He gave me a run down on his trip.
Bro came back late that day and went to Carrefour. Came home to makan.
Left for my outing with Chris and Damian. Went to Starbucks at Taipan to test my wireless but unfortunately no connection to server that day. We wondering wat else can do. So went to Club 7 to play pool with Damian over some beers while Chris watched. Sent them home and returned back to my bro place to come online here.
Sunday would be time spent with family. Visiting my couz at TTDI and maybe PJ.
Monday morning have to wake up early for my sis convo. It should be over around 1 p.m. Dad got arrangements for party at bro place.
Tuesday, off back to Penang. Dad kinda home-sick and talking about home. Both a bit jet-lag.

The family doctor...
Waited for a stinking 1 hour for the dude to come. Was kinda crowded with ppl sneezing and coughing.
My fever went up and felt really uncomfortable. Went in for the check-up and came out ensuring that it was paid by the company. :P
Crossed of to the car where I met my family doctor just about to close his clinic. I said hie and we started to talk about the past when I was younger, fatter and you could say a boy. Haha!
This dude is so relaxed and easy to talk to. He has aged obviously but still remembers the family. Actually they still go to him. But he can remember where I was missing for the past 6 years.
The good thing I learnt from him is his positive attitude and always kind. One of the best doctors I've met so far compared to that grumpy arse from Burmah C.
By the way, the nice doctor is Dr Teong from Klinik Teong Burmah Road.

Ignorance can sometimes be a mistake...

Sunday, April 15, 2007
Dad was right... hehe!
My dad asked me few times during the week if I had enough rest or not. Seriously I dunno how I did it.
Friday night was the end of my week as not coming in on Saturday. I have been coming in on Sat for like the past 3 weeks. Talk about having a life! Haha!
Suppose to meet up with the boss for some "Happy hour" that night but the boss cancelled suddenly. Pretty last minute. No worries. He promised me this week we'll go. Haha!
I parked at Snake Temple after work that night and gave a call to my friend on the mainland. Ask her what she doing and if got plans. So in the end went out with the gang for beers! Her sis just came down so I also long time never met her. So meet sekali gus! Venue : Sega Fredo @ Autocity (need to take Penang bridge or ferry as on mainland).
Had my dinner there at Sega (first solid meal of the day). Followed by beers! Muahah! It was really a nice time catching up and reminising on the past. Loads of laughs and fun! Well, what can I say, great company! It was such a relief for me as it was a busy week.
Actually wasn't bad lah going all the way there. Coz these friends also come over to Pulau Tikus sometimes for beers. Now I know what it feels like to drive all the way home after few rounds of beer! Haha! This what they call give and take mah!
Woke up on Saturday and felt like head spinning. Took a bath and drove to Alor Setar. Took the ferry accross. It was so nice and relaxing to see Penang in the background, waves coz of the ferry, the Penang bridge and of course the mainland approaching. I saw jelly fish!
Drove all the way to Alor Setar. Reached my aunt's boutique, she ask me follow my couz run some errands. So this 18 year old guy who just got license decided to drive me in his Gen-2.
We reached a one-way road and he had to go opposite. He ask me how so I said should be ok lah. Heck I am not from Alor Setar mah. So he decides to zoom by, came to a junction and did not stop.
The car had been hit on it's side wheel by a silver Kancil. Two of us got out and apologise to the aunt. Being the older and mature couz I talked to the lady and kind of cooled her down. Me and couz were like speaking broken Hokkien with her but thank God it worked!
I was a bit annoyed coz I came all the way and got stuck in an accident. I told that to my couz. It is a darn waste of my time. He called his uncle, uncle came and kautim the whole thing. Took the lady's car to repair.
Couz was feeling in a state of shock. I grabbed the keys from him and drove the car. His legs were like shaking. Fetched my lil couz from his drum lessons and went to their house to fetch their sis.
Basically had lunch with aunt and family, drive around and drove back to Penang.
But wait, there was this classic car exhibition so went to Autocity , AGAIN! Hahah! I just learnt there is a difference in cars; vintage is like Henry Ford era, classic is like 1960's and modern classic is like the age of the Volvo 240 (my era, well almost)... Haha! I dun really dig most of the cars that were vintage.
Went home, mandi, went out dinner with dad, uncle and aunt.
10 p.m. left home for clubbing. Clubbing was ok lah. Met up with friends from another department. Really crowded that day at Momo and the place we sat was like the highway of Momo. So keep getting ppl bumping into u.
Sunday, as promised, had to fetch my aunt for church. Then it's the ussual shopping time where I have to drive her.
Told her I was in a bit of a rush. Went home had lunch and out the door again.
Myvi gathering at Bagan Ajam mainland. This weekend was the most I used the bridge. 3 days in a row! A lot of members came so something like 40 ppl.
RS autos organized the gathering at their shop. Mostly a promotional thingy so that we buy there stuff. Had a very interesting conversation with the guys about cars and how to improve the little machine. Hehe.
This was my third time and beginning to feel part of the group. Everyone becomes a little dramatic when about to leave. Some went to Pacific to play bowling. I had to shoot back to Penang again as had appointment with dad.
I told myself I am not leaving the house for the rest of the evening. Right now I am getting ready for bed. Tiring week indeed but it was great! I can't believe I did so many things. Hehe!

Can I be honest?
You know a friend like too well and fear that being honest is gonna create a confrontation in a friendship. The friend may just like freak-out or even be offended just because you tried to be honest.
So there are ppl who keep it to themselves in fear that it would complicate things with their best friend. Sorry... I dun think it is a pro-active approach(yeah, only now I can say it... lol).
The best is to get it out in the open. The good, the bad and the ugly. Sometimes friends surpress how they feel to someone and in the end the other friend dunno sh*t what's going on.
If your not happy about something with the person, just say it. But say it nicely. Be open! That would be the best way rather than to keep anger and frustration inside. No one knows how you feel until you actually tell that person.
People often say that they can take honesty at no extra cost but in the end feel offended and upset with the person who spoke to them.
Could it be the way the message is conveyed? Feeling a little "understanding" to the situation, empathatic and the feeling of "I really wanna help you" should be applied.
They say that only your friends will tell u the truth because they care and they want to help you. Ur enemy could not be bothered and would like to see u in the pitts.
Being a listener of a friend being honest, interpretating the message can be a subjective thingy; no right or wrong.
It all depends how a friend can take it. Sometimes if interpreted, the message could have been sent by someone who cares or means something to you. Otherwise, it could be seen as your invading my privacy----> tension ----- > piss off.
I sometimes have been told by my friends and somehow get upset at what they say. Haven't we all? But I guess they care and it may sound like just human-nature to yell. But there intention could be quite clear in helping you. It may be some sought of advise to improve or just their way of conveying the message.
I guess in life, it's good to look at things in general positively. If everything was bad, life would be so demotivating and nothing to look forward to. But in the end, it's all human nature. Everyone has growing feelings and personalities.

Can you believe it's already March?
My new sub-department asked me to organize a get together on Friday night. We had it at none other than Torch at Tg Bungah. Lots of people came. Lots of beer leaving us happy. Had a game of pool and foose-ball. Haha! Bullying the girls at Foose Ball. No. Seems that one of my friends has the experience after learning from me and she's busy scoring now. The lesson, never ever teach a girl how to play. Haha!
Saturday was spent reviewing my car loan and getting to know how to pay and where to pay.
The first and last payment has to be done at the bank. Subsequent payments can be made online thanks to the innovation of mobile banking. Woo hoo!
Saturday night had my Myvi Club get together at Jeti Merbok in Sungai Petani. Penang people gathered at Makro Sg Dua and went to Sg Dua toll on the mainland. Around 36 cars made it that day coming from Penang, Kedah and Perlis. It's a good time to share our experience with our beloved Myvi and of course meeting new people. Our next gathering will be in Jitra, Kedah to pool in new Myvi members from Kedah.
I woke up on Sunday morning at 9.20 a.m. thinking what should I do first. What struck my mind was hey, let's start the week in church. Made it in time for the 10 a.m. mass. Kinda crowded as people like it short and sweet.
Went to meet up with my uncle who manages the car park in front of Soho in town to catch up on the latest news. Then came home to meet his brother who just came down from Subang.
We went for Pitt Street Nasi Kandar which was awesome. However, I find that adding dried onions tends to make you thirsty which may have left me now with a sore throat. Still contemplating if I should go to work on Monday. I hate to skip work but I am considering the inconvenience of sitting in the office with this condition.
So what's next? It's my birthday of course! Yup this Saturday. 24/3/2007! Coincidently I am 24 this year and it's the year of the pig.
Hoping for more money, good health and of course trying my luck in the love boat!
Can you believe it's March? I can imagine the coming of Christmas again pretty soon. Haha!
Ok guys. All the best and take care. Live life to the fullest! Aim high and strive to achieve it! :D

My New Car!





Rear shot. Car plate number is BJJ 8600. I wanted 8 coz means wealth, 6 is career and 00 coz can trail nicely with JJ. I dunno but I sourced this info from the net and just used my creativity to create a 4 digit number. Reason B plate coz my bro got connection in KL. One of the first non-black 2007 registered Myvi in Malaysia!

The end of January 2007
I went straight to the TV and flipped through the channels with my favourite section of NST, Cars, Bikes and Trucks! Haha!
Took a shower and headed off to my natural haven, Botanical Gardens. It was beautiful sunny day. So perfect. Greenery, blue skies, birds flying, butterflies flying... simply relaxing. Kinda out of the ordinary ordeal compared to the ussual process of going to work. Haha!
Here are some shots taken trying to max out the camera feature of my V3i:
Simply beautiful background. Can you notice the different shades of green? 
Scenic view of the river from Waterfall.

It certainly took my mind of things that keep me busy thinking. I felt so much happier. I felt that I had gone for some revival course. Brought me back to reality and calmness. I feel so much better.
This Tuesday and Wednesday, I am off to KL for a holiday. Just to relax and take my mind off things. Hopefully I get to bring back something new. Long time never go shopping d.
Thaipusam is on Thursday but still got work. I deffinitely have to avoid going to my other house in Jalan Utama this week. I hate jams! Seriously it's gonna be crowded like every year. But amidst the crowd, I certainly admire the devotees with their 'kavadi'. I can see a strong believe in their religion. I admire that. I wish I can go take a quick peep of what's going on. Certainly would "bedazzle" me. Hahah! That word sounds so sexy!
This Saturday my parents are having some party for their new grandson in P. Tikus. I hope to get some photos to put up here. Just a big family event with family friends over. Mostly old ppl and it's not gonna be any happening then Torch! Haha!
God, I really pray to get through this week with patience and ease. Please give me the courage to let her know that... :X

New Year 2007!
The last whole week of 2006 was spent busy in the office. Yes, I did return from my trip to KL to celebrate Christmas with my family at my bro's place in Subang.
Friends and colleagues did asks me about my plans for New Year. I was so uncertain. Never really thought of it. They were like organizing a week in advance. I was like more go with the flow.
I did promise Lisa that I would join her, Azmy and Suzie but I just had no mood to go Upper Penang Road for New Year. That is like the centre of the celebrations here in Penang so can imagine the crowd. I hate crowded places.
On the 31st of Dec. around 3 p.m. I gave a call to Gan to arrange plans for the New Year celebration. I spent the last day of 2006 on the beach in Penang. Munching on 'kacang' and having a fag. It was a beautiful sunny day. Gan was like sun-bathing and practicing his karate. I was more like contemplating on what happen in 2006 and how I can do better in 2007.
So back to the New Year plan, I called him and Jega and we decided to meet up at Torch Tg. Bungah. I normally hang out there coz I think it's happening and kinda cool. Not so rowdy crowd! Haha!
Beyond my expectation I met soooo many old friends. Wow! It certainly brought back good childhood memories of friends whom I had grown up with but lost contact over the years.
Got to catch up with them and buy some beer. I was so happy that night I was so freaking drunk. Cheers-ing around and laughing and talking crap... haha! It kinda felt like the happiest moment in a long time seeing everyone after so long. People you grew up with, laughed with and maybe even faught with. But those were the days. Nice to see everyone happy in life and doing well.

Me and Andrea

Gan, Jega and me.
My bro called me up to wish me and advised me to becareful as I was kinda high. I managed to get Jega to drive me back in the end to my place with my car as he parked his bike there.
I got home slowly into the house. Climbed upstairs. Took a shower and went to bed. I like totally K.O. on my bed.
U obviously can imagine how I felt the next morning on 1/1/2007! Haha! Happy New Year!

MYVI

Since the Myvi came out I kinda liked it. People said it was economical with the DVVT engine(fuel saving engine). It comes it like so many colours.
Lately I have been thinking a lot about this car. I really have fallen in love with it.
Hopefully, in a few years time, I can finally afford to get one. Wish me luck!
It's around 49k. The good thing to me are the dual air-bags, ABS and the DVVT. These are the hot aspects of the car that has attracted my attention and wet my mouth. Haha!
God, please help me get a new car. Santa Claus, can I still write to you? I haven't writen to you in like over 10 years. Haha!
Sunday, November 12, 2006
The weekend that was...
It was a long week so I decided to go Gurney Plaza on Friday night after work. Wanted to go shopping for some stuff. Was a bit rush coz had promised Azmy that I will meet him for dinner with Carienna and Ben.
He suggested to us to try this Korean restaurant. I was like quite open to the idea but was pretty shocked by the bill! But it was once in a while so ok loh... It's buffet Korean style where you get to pick what u want and cook in on hot pan or in boiling Abalone soup.

Various meats from chicken to beef.
My new style of taking photo... hehe... make ur own conclusion! By the way that's Azmy.

Saturday was a day spent relaxing at home. Cleaning my room and the house as mom was over in KL.
Dad's car has a gearbox problem which he is super-pissed so I had to drive him around. Kinda cool coz we never spent time in a long time. He asked me how I am doing at work so showed him my compliment letters while he was sitting in the co-drivers seat while I was the driver. Lol!
Dropped him off later at 1 p.m. for his meeting before I went to mechanic. Just thought of getting the guy to check my car but he ended up getting me to change the engine mountings. The car feel more nicer to drive now and less vibration.
It was the smoothness of Melody's car that prompted me to consider making my car less jerky. Haha! I know ur gonna read my blog Mel!
Si Mun's idea for Saturday night was to have a get together for all the colleagues. Turn out me, Lisa, Si Mun, Joni and Danny Ooi (our buddy from TS) to come.The rest of the team decided to spend time at home with their families or hang out with other friends kot.
It was nice. We had dinner together followed by "Happy hour".
I enjoyed this weekend coz it was fun! I really anticipated it was going to turn out fun and fulfilling it did! Lol!
Let's hope this week at the office is going to be better!

Deepavali 2006!
I decided to leave the office at 6.10 pm and head home for a bath and freshen up before coming for his party at 9 p.m.
That day it rained heavily, can say the whole Penang also kena lah. It was extremely heavy downpour which did coz floods in some areas around Penang. The heavy rain reminded me of the old days driving on the Seremban highway from Malacca to KL when the rain was bad and I was all alone in the car in the storm.
Traffic on that day was pretty hectic. To be honest I dunno why. Could be the Deepa-Raya celebration lah. People all going out last minute shopping.
So anyway, I was on the way back home using the Green Lane Road. I was stuck on that road for 2 1/2 hours! Normally it takes like 7 minutes to clear but took me so long! There was a jam coz of a flood near the Ramakrishna Centre. I was expecting a flood near the PFS as what my friend told me but I passed by with ease.
Cars were overheating and short-circuiting coz of the flood. Breaking down like dead antelop crossing the Sahara to greener pastures! Haha! I was careful though. But my patience was fading! I never expected to be stuck till like that! I can imagine what the Coastal Highway would be like.
When I got to Pulau Tikus was so late that I decided to turn the car around and go to my friend's house (I never went home). Driving back to Bayan Lepas was no problem. Wanted to enter into coastal highway but there was another jam. So use Gelugor Road. It was slow but deffinitely faster than the Coastal Highway lah.
Reached Allan's house and there was no food at 10 pm! He thought I and my other friend Mark were not coming. So he took me to Pelita nearby and bought me dinner.
We headed back to his place for beer! He had one whole bucket full of cold chilled beer. It was great drinking. Mark then came from the office coz he was too hardworking that day finishing up cases. All of us left at around 2 a.m. coz of work the next day on Deepavali Day! It was a great "Tani Session".
I woke up on Deepavali feeling I could be free. Had a quick play with my dogs. Having dogs can be so fun and relaxing. They really brightened up my day! My parents were like do u wanna join us go visiting but I had to decline coz of work.
Left home around 10.30 a.m. to start my shift of 11- 6 p.m. Allan promised to bring food in for us that his aunt had cooked around 12 p.m. Lisa, Siew Yean, Afny and me were the only ones in the office. Afny puasa so just left 3 of us with the food that Allan brought. Allan did not join coz he had to get back home to continue the celebration.
This was what Allan brought. Briani rice, chicken curry, mutton curry, sotong curry, prawn curry and vege. Not forgetting the sweets which we gave Afny to buka puasa later that day.
Lisa and Siew Yean insisted we take pictures of our lunch!
Wow, look at Siew Yean bz taking the food! Dun kill me for this pic! Haha!
This was what I took! It was really nice food! Thanks Allan! Had a great lunch! I never expected that Saturday at work to be so fun! U certainly "Wow-ed" those that came in. Sorry to Carienna for not getting any share of the food. Hahah! It was a great Deepavali this year, shared with new friends at Dell! :D
Makan x 3... Last Sunday... not today...
Suggested go to Swattow Lane. So off we went in the lil blue Aveo.
Before we went there, we went to the pet shop Chew Thean Yeang to take a look at the new dogs and fish. I dun have any pics of that though I saw a huge cat fish. I wonder what happen to the big black labrador?
Then go makan at Swattow Lane! Yippie! Get to order my favourite mee goreng Sultan. It was great. I had the crave for it. Also ordered coconut water. Yeah, rather rare for me to order that but just felt like it. :P

I couldn't help but notice that Penang people like to eat in their free time. I mean it was like 4.30 p.m. and people were out eating. Sure not dinner lah at 4.30! Wanna say tea-time also cannot. Include me lah. We just felt so bored so nothing to do we go eat that day.Gan loves to eat! :P Gan topped up his ice-kacang with papaya and ice-cream.
I tell u this is so lame updating my blog base on what happen last Sunday. But what the heck it was a great Sunday just hanging around! :D

The best Saturday in a long time!
This week has been hectic. I spent most of the hours of the week in office. Friday, my manager asked me if I am coming back to office on Saturday(optional) I proudly said no.
Today (Saturday) was spent busy sleeping recovering from my Friday night with Gan. We are both working now and have come along way since our schooling days! Haha! We went for Thai food at Tg Bungah. The shop is called Latnna. We had pork leg and tom yam fish head. It can't beat the Thai food that my new friend and colleague, Carienna, took me in Bagan Ajam on the mainland. But it was a good try.
Then we headed over to Sea Wind near Naza Hotel in Tanjung Tokong for beers! We sat by the beach chilling, drinking and puffing. It was so relaxing, looking back on the week and chatting about the good old days! The strong winds and waves did not hinder us though I was getting a little panic. I got phobia going to beaches especially after tsunami. Seeing the young people (around age 20) playing on the beach (What is the time Mr. Wolf) made me laugh reminising on the old times when we were young. Now, it looked pretty stupid! Haha!
Back to Saturday, I woke up. Headed to the TV room browsing through the channels. My first time thinkering with my dad's Astro Max. It can record stuff or something. Anyway, I came accross this old movie Cable Guy and started watching. Soon my uncle came over and we had a good laugh at the show. It was like really stupid and funny. Funny stupid!
I today got mood so decided to be a good son and vaccuum the cars. I was vaccuming the footwell of my dad's car when BOOM! The blady vaccuum exploded but it was internally. The motor overheated! My mom came over wondering what happened and explained to her.
I then had to take her to town to her Electrical Shop where the technician took a look and said dead on arrival. I promised to take her to Sen Heng and HSL which I did checking out newer vaccuums. They looked pretty cool and funky! The evolution of the vaccuum.
I bought lunch today for my parents. We went to Swattow Lane to 'tah pau' Char Koay Teow, ice kacang, Koay Teow Th'ng and poh-pia. I so big eyes mah wanna eat. Hahah! Still got balance. I even bought a packet of nasi lemak which I could not resist in front of HSL facing 1-Stop.
After lunch, washed my parents cars. Was too blady tired to wash my own car. Alah tommorrow lah hopefully. Went back to TV room after that lieing down after hardwork.
I got out of the house at 5pm and went to HSBC with my dog. I just picked him up and off we went. He had a good time looking out the window but this time he was good to sit.

From HSBC we went to Gurney Drive for a walk. He made some new friends a Golden Retriever and a Shit Zhu. Benson was so happy walking along Gurney Drive. He was pissing, smelling, pissing, smelling... Dog stuff!

I had a nice time walking and relaxing on a sunny Saturday afternoon. Looking at the waves. I really needed a break from the office. It's good to take a break looking at life pass by. Nature to be spesific. The pigeons and the crows busy walking around the beach.
Tonight I am going to this Wine Shop with my colleagues. Just to chill and hang out! Carienna has just informed me she not going coz of some crappy lame ass excuse ... hahah! "I was in Penang whole day!". Kidding. I understand u! Haha!
So guys, I really do hope I can blog more. I shall schedule time out of my busy schedule. By the way, I am looking forward to my new newphew this November! Yippie!

My First Day at Dell
Left home taking the Green Lane road. It was smooth. Listened to the songs of Disagree all the way. Hehe! I am in Disagree fever after going to the Hitz.fm Beach Party with Bennett a couple of weeks back.
Got there around 7.30. Made my way to the entrance and waited there for my Hire Manager to come at 9.
She showed me round the building and introduced me to my new colleagues! All girls! My "buddy" loves dogs! So it was easy to get into conversation coz we had something in common to talk about. Hehe! I learnt a lot from my "buddy" assigned to me to help me learn more about the system. When we were bored working she showed me sites of dogs like www.puppy.com.my .We went for lunch together with the office mates! It was nice! Nice canteen. Kinda like buffett at hotel. Prices are reasonable!
Met up with my cousin Rosalind and my new friend Fiona. Fiona's dad and my dad are friends. It was nice to finally get to know each other. We exchanged numbers. Coz at Dell ppl like to go mkn together. U can eat with the same ppl or can change around! Hahah! Everyone communicates on MSN. Met up with Edgar, a distant cousin who wanted me to join his department. But I dun really fancy that line of work.
I got a desk with a Dell pc but I am currently placed with my "buddy" to learn more. She's a real big help. It kind of makes it easy to make friends in a big organization coz she takes u around. So far I find them to be pleasent. I was nervous at first at making new friends. But they were friendly.
Tommorrow is another day with my "buddy". She shows me what's it like to handle different problems at Dell Customer Care. Oh yeah, I am assigned to cater for customers from Australia and New Zealand or in short ANZ. Next week I start my official training. I think with my new friend Joanne whom I met last Monday at the medical check up. Got a lot to learn to be honest. But I shall be optimistic about it.
I shall keep all my sweet friends posted. It's an interesting phase of life I would love to share. Perhaps it's a learning experience for those who are interested! Hehe!

Starting work... wish me luck!!!
Tommorrow will mark my first day on the job. Leaving the house around 6.45 am coz trying to beat the hectic traffic; ppl going to work and kids going to school.
I have yet to determine which route would be ideal. Some say use Penang Outer Ring Road ( something like LDP in KL) or the Green Lane Road. Green Lane has many schools on it so I dunno if it would be ideal or the flow of traffic would be smooth. We'll see tommorrow!
My new working place is a humble company manufacturing and assembling pc's for home and office use. It's located at Bayan Lepas near to the Penang Airport. Should take me around 40 mins to get there. Well, atleast I can drive my car more often!!! Heheh!
Basically what I am suppose to do is handle customers that call in. Their calls list from complaints, questions etc. that we must try to rectify and handle. It's an 8-5 pm job with 1 hour lunch in between.
I shall comment on what went on at the workplace in detail after I've started working there. Sure a lot to tell. Hahah!
Initially I wanted to get a job in KL. When I was in Penang, decided to try my luck. The offer was good with great renumerations and bennefits hence I said ok I shall try working here. Mom and dad are delighted with the decision. I get Astro, Streamyx and walking distance to Gurney Plaza or 1-Stop. How to complain?My dad had an idea to build another car park for me but I decline coz very troublesome and all. Ala, ppl who know me, I am practical type. Just park and masuk rumah! Heheh! The exotic food well comes in standard living in Penang!! Yahooooo! The nightlife here is great! Chicks galore of course! But u gotta becareful! Not all are ideal for any guy! Some are bitches!
My uncle told me ppl would wonder how come a Selangor plate car would drive like the other competent Penang drivers! Haha! Penang drivers u gotta learn them! Everyone wanna go places fast. So have to anticipate whose behind, front and sides. I sometimes get scared though to see how they drive. But keeping to my road ethicate I think can survive! Hehe!
Wish me luck on the job!!! :D

Why do u wanna start something I ended peacefully? Don't get it...
Well... what can I say? Someone has started the ball rolling!
I have been a victim of condemn and defamation! Well, I really trusted u and was going to go on to the next step if things went smoothly. But, there was a glitch resulting in me retreating from the battle ground to a place called 'safe' = separation.
After sooo long, u finally voice out ur raging anger and unhappiness to me INDIRECTLY. Thank you! Let everyone know. It's a marvelous job! Compliments to u! Ur message has well been transfered to everyone. But in the large arena of everyone, there are smaller segments who simply know the truth! I mean are they wrong to have opinions? No right? Their opinions was caused by what u did to them. I mean why the hell they would come out with false judgements of u? That would sound so fictional! Pinch urself to see if it hurts! Do it! We are in a real world!This is no Orange County show where everyone is happy always!
I think if there was anyone willing to start to say something it should be me of course! But I have put it behind me. I am not willing to blame anyone directly. It happen, it ended! That's it. I never bothered to worry or be upset by it. I faced it like a man ( 1 batang , 2 bola) u know? I faced the fact and acted accordingly to the situation when confronted by friends! It may be 2 days after the separation or 2 months or even 2 decades. But in the end they know also right? So does time matter? Or u just plan to have friends for a couple of years then junk them? This is not like toilet paper. U wipe ur ass, then throw the paper. Friends are a lifetime asset and I cherish them. If they need to know, let them know. If they are our friends, then why should we hide it from them?
I take it as a sign to clear ur tarnished name off the minds of ur friends! So u acted to pollute my name making me look like the villain and u can heroicly rejoice of being the winner! U obviously knew or were scared to be labelled. So u quickly came out with something so everyone knows he was wrong all the way. Why have I been so silent? Ever wonder? Coz I just want it to end there and not to make matters worst. Now u have started the ball rolling? U dun have to go round now showing ur lover, acting misserable feeling threatend by this. U know me, I am not going to do anything not that I am a sissy but just hey I am a mature individual. U started it, so it's wise I reply. Not that I am deffending myself. Just a response to what u said.
I know I am not perfect. I have failed. I failed to the point where I gave it up! Coz I know if I continue I shall continue to fail too. I was imperfect. I was wrong always. As I know it was a failure, it's better to depart then to continue. But why tell everyone so publicly? Are we on Oprah?
Sometimes, the best thing to do it's keep silent for a while. Now u making me feel even more disgusting towards u. Making me regret why I even bothered taking so much pride in u? Love came but sadly it ended. I also hurt and sad. There were problems. But why poke the finger at me? I takes to Tango. Not all my fault.
Anyway, I dun care anymore about u. What u wanna write just write. If ppl think I am satan's son so be it! I admit u have the freedom of speech! It's me and the rest of Malaysians that are told to shut up. Right? Hahha! Not racist but hey it's a fact! But this is not Malaysia, this is cyberspace! So ppl can respond by replying to ur criticism. Congrats by the way! Ur a "team player"! Hahah!

Mahathir and Siti Hasmah visit MMU, Malacca
It was kind of last minute decision for me to go and see the arrival of Tun Mahathir and Tun Siti Hasmah to MMU, Malacca. I had received forwarded messages on Yahoo! Messenger from friends and classmates announcing the arrival of these distinguised visitors to MMU. The reason of their visit would be an event organized called Around the World in 3 Days featuring cultures of international students from around the world mainly Middle East.
I contacted my good friend Nurfadzlin and she told me she also would be going to catch a glimps and take some photos with the former PM if possible. She was all excited about it and telling me how she gonna take the photos and where she would stand all.
To our disbelief, there were more than expected students gathered at the concourse of CLC that night waiting for their arrival. Some with cameras and camera phones linning up along the pathways nearly 30 minutes before the arrival of Tun and his wife.
A bluish BMW 7 series entered the compound behind the surau near CLC and for a moment everyone stood in silence as they stepped out of the vehicle.

They were greeted by the President and administration staff and proceeded to CLC where there were like a few thousand students waiting to catch a glimps, take photos and to shake the hands of the former PM and his wife.
I was lucky to get a shot(above). Also to shake hands with Tun and his wife. A great experience, something I would treasure for a long time. I mean without a doubt he has done so much for Malaysia in many ways! Especially creating Proton! How I love my Wira! Heheh!

Being spontaneous and daring!
That morning before I sat for the exam at night, I felt like doing something different. A little courageous and beyond my ussual routines. I felt like going to KL after exam which was suppose to end around 9.30 p.m. To add the fun of going KL was an idea to meet my couz over in Ampang though I was not sure how to get there but I got there! ;) My friend from Ampang had earlier given me directions to get there from the Sg. Besi toll. I followed her instructions and the rest depended on my gutt feelings of how to get to Bandar Baru Ampang!
I studied and went for the exam. After that I returned home, packed my bag and checked my car water and oil levels before leaving for KL at an alarming 11 p.m.! I mention alarming coz I don't normally drive that late on the highway. If my parents found out I sure die I tell u first... hahah!
My cousin in Ampang also another one. Call her so many times at 10 p.m. cannot get. I also wondering worth it or not going all the way to Ampang to see her coz scared I arive there she malas wanna go out. Luckily at 10.30 p.m. more or less confirm and she said she would sleep first till I get there. Kesian her also lah. Go out and lepak with me though next day she got work at Starbucks, Kotaraya.
It was my second time driving to Ampang alone so was a bit cautious of road-signs, roads and the traffic that night. Some cars zoomed beside me. I didn't bother. This not my area so scared wanna chase them. One Kelisa guy ( look like some form 5 student) tailgating me like f*ck! Flashing at me and came sooo close. I thought habis lah. Sure kena wan. Luckily I gave way as soon as I could and gave him the eye when he passed. I am not surprised if his front bumper actually touched mine. What to do lah? So careful look after my car but got jerks like this on the road. Cannot avoid wan.
I got to Bandar Baru Ampang at around 1.30 a.m. Saturday morning and called my couz. She was like u seriously down there ah? I was like yeah. Hehe! She had a sore-throat and had to wake up to come down and meet me from a her apartment block. Sorry. Next time I visit u earlier.... hehehe!
We went to this new Petronas station in Ampang Jaya near to her dad's apartment as it had a brand new McD in it. McD is 24-7 so kinda cool to hang out. But at 2 a.m. only selected meals available which was rather lame. This Petronas has even a Dunkin' Donuts and a nasi kandar shop. Something rather different from me who hails from Pulau Tikus where there are just petrol stations with maybe a convenience store in it. We sat there and ate there, chatting about what's going on in our bz lives and the family. Hehe! I was successful in getting almost all the latest info on what's going on in the family especially like about one of my couz from Melawati, Ampang which is gonna get married soon! So nice to see cousins getting married. But the fear of whose next??? Hahahha!
I sent her home at 3.30 and headed back to Subang using Kesas. I really drove slow coz not biasa driving so late at night! Reach at 4a.m. Got out of the car with the house key to my aunt's house. I got to the gate and notice the house was being renovated! I had no key to the new door. I was like Oh my God! I was so tired and tried sleeping at the back seat of the car. Buzzing mosquitos and bites kept me up though I manged to catch like 5 mins of sleep in the car. At 5.15 I went to the mamak to hang out coz got bored in the car. I arived at 6.30 to the house coz I know my uncle normally wakes up that time and called him. He came out and told me that he also just came home from a birthday party. We chatted for a while before I slept wherever I could find clean to sleep at 7.15 a.m.
Got up at around 10.30 a.m. and did some arrands before returning to my bro place just up the road from my aunt's place coz her place was still under renovation. Celebrated my nephew's 5th birthday. It was a great family gathering though my parents could not make it this year coz my dad got something to do.
That Sunday when I left Subang at 4 p.m., I returned to Malacca with a contented feeling of doing something extraordinary! I felt good! I felt I had a life!
So the next time ur down and out, get up and get out of your daily routines! Go out and have fun! Do something u dun normally do and would bring excitement! U would feel better!
