Cute Cottages

      


These are the small cottages i got my eyes on. Semalam pergi Amcorp Mall, thot of buying the cottages, unfortunately the shop closed on Monday. Sempat juga ambil gambar from outside the shop. Just love this shop.

            

         Ada tak yang berkenan di hati?

Busy Bee

These few days, i am quite busy with work and it will continue for another few days. Ada banyak files atas meja to be reviewed and need my assessment. The 'ship' pun senyap juga, maybe because the Captain is not around. Suasana pun tak semeriah selalu..i know i am busy. How about the rest of the crews? Miss you all lah...

Yesterday, after bookcrosser meeting at Amcorp Mall, i went shop hopping. I saw small porcelain cottages that really caught my eyes. Thought of buying for my collection but at point of time rasa macam not worth it. RM 28.00 for such a small thing. Now rasa menyesal kenapa tak beli. Perhaps , i will singgah Amcorp Mall balik nanti and beli.

Today ada makan-makan kat office. Memang selalu ada organise luncheon kat office ni. Menu hari ini..nasi beriani, ayam goreng, dalca, acar rampai and mee hoon goreng. For desert..Secret Recipe's Chocolate Banana ( Cekya's favourite and mine too ), Mango Cake, cream puff, jelly and fruits.

I am so full and you knowlah after eaten nasi beriani..apalagi, rasa sleepy yang teramat sangat. If boleh letak batang mancis kat mata...i would do so. We still keluar untuk cari parking space lagi and still the same answer we get..no parking space available. I guess I dah terbiasa with that answer sampai i dah tak rasa apa-apa lagi.

Today pun my colleague last day kat office ( samalah Cekya ). I wish her well in her future undertakings.

Easy Essay?


Submit an autobiography essay about yourself of not more then 700 words. It should tell us about you and essentially what you want the reader to know about yourself. It could focus on your personal life, your background, your achievements, and accomplishments or on your experiences 

Write an essay about myself? Sounds simple...that's what i said when i first read the lines. When it comes to actually writing it...it seems quite difficult. Macam ada lots of things to write but at the same time don't to be seen as bragging about myself. 

How come it's much more easier to help others with theirs than to write mine? It's me, myself and not Irene ( Jim Carey's movie, i guess ), but myself...how difficult can it gets?


What say you?

I Am A Force Nature

As instructed by Captain, i went to see SEPET last Saturday, for the first time ( i know Cekya  dah tengok 3 times ) tho i missed the first 10 minutes. But tak kisah...i can buy the vcd later. It was a nice movie...suka tengok Jason...maybe because i suka people with chinese look. ( well..it runs in the blood ). Lurve the way Orked says "sayang"


Congratulation to Yasmin Ahmad aka The Storyteller  in winning the Grand Jury Prize at the 27th Creteil International Women Directors Festival, beating nine other contenders.

Sing A Song

Specially dedicated for Captain and the Cabin crews. Nyanyikan macam lagu Lina by Dato' Shake. Hope you like it.



Jauh sudah ku kembara
Ke blog-blog yang indah
Merintis jalan membina
persahabatan

Socket errorsku alami
Semuanya tak menghalangku
Untuk melayari blogmu
Dengan jayanya

( korus 1 )
Ohhh...
... kini bahgianya
Kau membawa kegembiraan buatku
... kini ku mengerti
Kau memberi persahabatan yang ikhlas
Ohhh...

Bloggers-bloggers di internet
Yang memikat dan menawan
Namun tak seceria
Crew kapal Danny
yea yea yea

Kau menyinari hidupku
Di setiap hari ku disini
Kau selalu bersamaku
Di alam maya

( korus 2 )
Ohhh...
... kini gembiranya
Ku ceria kerna kehadiran mu
..lawak dan komenmu
Ku nyanyikan dalam hidupku
Huu huu yea...

( ulang korus 2 )




This is also for all of you. Enjoy it okay. You have touched my heart with your warm friendship and I am so thankful to Allah for that.  

I will survive






Feel numb and just want to act dumb.
Not being myself, want to hide behind the shelves
Don't want to cry or my tears will run dry
Feeling blue, going to pull it through




********************



Till I Am Myself Again

I want to know where my confidence went
One day it all disappeared
And I'm lying in a hotel room miles away
Voices next door in my ear

Daytime's a drag
Nighttime worse
Hope that I can get home soon
But the half-finished bottles of inspiration
Lie like ghosts in my room

I want to go
I know I can't stay
But I don't want to run
Feeling this way
Til I am myself
Til I am myself
Til I am myself again

There's a seat on the corner I keep every night
Wait til the evening begins
I feel like a stranger from another world
But at least I'm living again

There are nights full of anger
Words that are thrown
Tempers that are shattered and thin
And the moments of magic
Are just too short
They're over before they begin

I know it's time
One big step
I can't go
I'm not ready yet
Til I am myself
Til I am myself
Til I am myself again

I had a dream that my house was on fire
People laughed while it burned
I tried to run by my legs were numb
I had to wait til the feeling returned

I don't need a doctor to figure it out
I know what's passing me by
When I look in the mirror
Sometimes I see traces of some other guy

I want to go
I know I can't stay
But I don't want to run
Feeling this way
Til I am myself
Til I am myself
Til I am myself again.

Madagascar


I think what the Captain and crews need rite now is a good laugh...tak sabar nak tengok this movie.  I love cartoon especially the cartoon classic. What about you?


I am on a new mission. HAHAHAHA. Well, not so newlah...the efforts been on and off. Need to reduce few kgs off this body before my cousin's wedding. She has been talking about us wearing a Nyonya Kebaya on her wedding.

Eating habits is hard to curb...i love food. Staying at my aunt's place doesn't make it more easier. Homecook dishes is undoubtly the best. Suffice to say, even the simple sambal sardin looks very tempting. Luckily, this time, i got a friend with the same mission as me. Time to put on our jogging gears...Lake Garden here we come.

Care to join us today??

Me Missing You

..barangkali dia juga rindu
sepertimana rindu yang aku rasa ini
melalui hari-hari sebegini setidak-tidaknya
mengingatkan akan saat seindah dulu
cuma hari seindah itu bilakah datang lagi
aku menunggu penuh rindu...

taken from Unsunghero


Try not to think about it but i can't lie to myself. I am missing someone..missing that someone so much.


Well, i am going to miss Captain and the crews too, that for sure.

Danny - You sounds really stress out. Take a good rest okay
Cekya - Speedy recovery...makan ubat antibiotics okay
Lun - Don't main kejar2 with Dibdib during the weekend...nanti sakit kaki.
Tatot - Create another Tatot chord, perhaps.

Geram

This whole BSC and KPI thingy is now getting into my nerves. The things is this ikan-ikan besar did not really set the basis properly. I have finsihed doing all the things based on my boss understanding. Then, one of the AVP said that we got it wrong. Yang susah is people like me yang have to extract all the figures and datas. It happened so many times..fed-up betul.

Car Park Crisis


Last Friday, two of my colleagues and myself received a notice of termination to our season parking at Lorong D****n just next to our office building. We are given one month to find a new parking space...which i tell you is sooooooooo difficult to find. For someone who can afford to pay RM 16.50 per day, would have no problem parking at the visitor's parking or parking by the roadside with the risk of being summoned by DBKL or Traffic Police.

On Monday, we went to all the parking lot that we can think of which are within our walking distance. The answers we got was so dissappointing. "We don't have any new allocation for season parking at the moment". We finally went to Jalan Batai ( within 10-15 mins walk from the office ). The parking attendance asked us to do to Menara Me****um for the forms,. We decided to walk all the way to PBD to get the forms. Such a relief, at last, we got ourselves parking spaces. ..

Today, to our dismay, when i called the person-charge, i was told that they have been instructed to cancel the season parking until further notice. I am so speechless..to think that we been walking under the hot sun for about 40 minutes and our effort was so pointless. Back to square one..no where to park.

I think i know what they are doing...try to take advantage of the whole situation. Increase the parking fee..as what happen to most of the parking space around here.

Been going up and down the Car Park Management office asking them to consider giving us parking spaces in the office building same as all the rest of our colleagues . Another pointless effort.

TENSION!!! Now have to crack our head again.

Monday Morning Mishap

I got myself into a minor mishap this morning. It's kind of embrassing as well as funny. The alarm went off at 6.25am, move myself a little and decided to continue sleeping for a while.  After 5 minutes or so, i woke up, still very blur, made one turn to the right and BANG!!! the next thing i know...i was at the floor like 'nangka busuk'. Ouuchhh!!! My knee and elbow hurts and still is.

A great start to my Monday morning.

Akly..Ajactly

It's BSC day. Only wish that BSC stands for Bangsar Shopping Complex...that would be fun. Shop until you drop. Sadly this time, this time around the BSC stands for Balance Scorecard and my day is solely dedicated to BSC. The meeting starts at 9.00pm and ended at 5.00pm.

What did we do? Practically, nothing. Listening to the bosses argued among themselves. Very not productive.

These might not be as funny as Keanu Reevers ( winked to Cekya ) but it sure made us laugh. My boss is having somekind of problem pronouncing the word actually and exactly. The words will come out as "akly" and ajackly". Out of the extreme boredom, my colleague decided to become a 'statistician'. Counting the words "akly" and "ajackly" that came out from his mouth.

The results :
1. Akly - 42 times
2. Ajactly - 15 times

Indecisive






That's me allrite...indecisive at the moment. Carneyz asked how do i do that..falling for two guys. The answer, i don't know. Somehow it's just happen..not with a blink of eyes, that is for sure.


In a different story...

Yesterday i read one of Cekya's posting whereby she mentioned about her employer and me being an official grasshopper..opps a bloghopper on that day without any hesitation or delay, hopped to her workplace . I had fun reading his blog and i think others enjoyed reading it too. Full of sense of humor. Managed to put a smile on my face that day.

Aye Captain... i wanna be on board as well. I also 'meet-up' with some of the crew members ( Enigma, Lunacy,  Maverix, Awan,TaufixTatot & Carneyz ).


Smooth Sailing!!!


In another story...

When i reached home yestersday, i was to that my auntie's ex-hubby had passed away. Al-Fatihah. Later that night, my mom called and told me that my youngest brother's application to enter Sekolah Teknik has been accepted and they ( my dad n mom ) will be sending him off the school today. I am happy to hear that and then i wonder...will he survive living apart from my parents. Hopefully, this is the chance for him to be more independent and learn perhaps,a trick or two in life...a good one, please.



Gotta go..it's 7.15pm

Uneasiness

3.50pm
I so sleepy rite now. If only i could lay down and slumber for a while that would be really nice. Miss my bed and pillows



10.30am
I hate this feeling...the feeling of uneasiness. Maybe it's because of semalam punya incident. Masa say nak balik, both of us macam slightly in a tense situation. Tak suka betul tu end a meeting dalam keadaan macam tu. It affected my morning mood...jadi morning blues. Tak suka this feeling.

TORN BETWEEN TWO LOVERS

There are times when a woman has to say what's on her mind
Even though she knows how much it's gonna hurt
Before I say another word let me tell you I love you
Let me hold you close and say these words as gently as I can

There's been another man that I've needed and I've loved
But that doesn't mean I love you less
And he knows you can't possess me and he knows he never will
There's just this empty place inside of me that only he can fill

CHORUS
Torn between two lovers, feelin' like a fool
Lovin' both of you is breakin' all the rules
Torn between two lovers, feelin' like a fool
Lovin' you both is breakin' all the rules

You mustn't think you've failed me just because there's someone else
You were the first real love I ever had
And all the things I ever said, I swear they still are true
For no one else can have the part of me I gave to you

CHORUS

I couldn't really blame you if you turned and walked away
But with everything I feel inside, I'm asking you to stay

CHORUS

Torn between two lovers
Feelin' like a fool
Lovin' both of you is breakin' all the rules
