wow, my life is quite hectic these few days. i'm still adjusting to my new job, i've got scold by my boss twice already... hehe, my fault. the first time regarding some paper that was important, and i thought otherwise. so, i cut those paper into 2 to make it as a document file seperator. then, i have to paste it again and photocopy it. hahaha, i really thought that paper was useless, that's why i scrapped it. got a really good scolding from my boss. second time regarding our customer. i fax our quotation to the wrong number. huhu, this one happened yesterday, how was i to know that it was for trading. dumb me...
but, yesterday he was not in a good mood. every single person in the ofiice got scold by him. well, he's the boss. he pays us, so we'll have to endure it... ooo, one more thing, he also gave me a really good lecture regarding passive and active people. he said that i should take a more active roll in the company. not just waiting orders. honestly, i would love to but i didn't know how to... i'm afraid that i stepped over the bound.... hehehe.... that's all for now, hope to update later. got so many things to tell... see you around...

i'm at my hometown in segamat right now! balik kampung lagi, hehehe... actually, i'm accompanying my sister. she has to pack all her things because she'll have to go back to new zealand next sunday! right now, she's on her semester break and doing all required things for her phD paper. about my exam, for the first time in my life, i finished answering it in 15 minutes! hahaha, some of the questions are simple and direct! but, i'm sure i got 1 wrong! the others probably right! it has only 10 questions...
i said i want to study the night before, right?! hehe, the truth is, i didn't! i slept all through the night. i only study when i arrived at the parking lot in front of the examination building! how many minutes eh?! i think around half an hour! and i study more than needed! there are only 4 topics included not 6 like i mentioned before! on the way there, i'm stucked in a slow traffic and on the way back to my office (got 1/2 day), i got lost! hahaha... luckily, i found my way back through LDP and it was better than federal. no traffic-jam! - Getting lost is an opportunity for adventure and discovery - this is particularly true when shopping, searching for love or on vacation. ~ Michael Flocker
WHAT TO DO?! wargh, i've got to sit for my mid term exam tomorrow and i haven't study a single thing?! of course, i know what i must do! hehe, just wanna yell it out loud! tomorrow paper is basic concept of information technology. must study 6 chapters, huhuhuhu, i'm doomed! got to burn the midnight oil... standby coffee... standby livita... standby whatever that can keep me awake and alert tonight! let me see, the topics are:
introduction to information era
central processing unit (cpu)
input/output
secondary storage
computer software
programming language
most of them, methink me can answer by general knowledge and common sense! but as for facts, got no choice, me have to study and remember! and btw, my exam will start at 9am at um. wargh, jammed! must use federal, no other choice! have to go out early! exam is 1 hour. then, i'll go back to work. my work is getting better each day! at least, i got to do works that exercises my mind muscle. otherwise, methink me iq level will drop just like our stock exchange recently.
furthermore, my boss want to shorten my probation periods. normally, it's 3 months, my boss want to shorten it to 2 or perhaps 1 month. after that, i'll receive my confirmation letter. at the moment, i'm still on probation! hehehe, got to perform well ler... ooops, yesterday the spm results were announced. three of my cousins sat for it. one got 10A... huhuhuhu... me and his brother think he's an alien to perform that well... both of us only manage to get several As during our time... hahaha, perhaps we were just jealous! but, good for him! he deserves it. i didn't manage to contact the other two!
but recently, a lot of students manage to get straight As for SPM. so, getting 10A is not a big matter anymore! and the best student managed to get 21As, if i'm not mistaken. i wonder how he studies! i only took 10 subjects for my spm, and it was enough to make my head explodes! he must be some kind of genius or something or maybe he studied like hell and didn't do anything else. sometimes i wonder, did the children are getting smarter or the quality of our education is getting lower?! hmmm, whatever it is, congratulation to all the candidates. may success always be with you! sound a lil' bit like MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU! hehehe, STAR WARS forever!
okay.. okay... got to go and study like there's no tomorrow! otherwise, my answer sheets will be blank! hahaha, until next time... wish me luck! “Never regard study as a duty, but as the enviable opportunity to learn to know the liberating influence of beauty in the realm of the spirit for your own personal joy and to the profit of the community to which your later work belongs.” - Albert Einstein

today, or should i say yesterday, i really had a bad day! i was scold at the office by my colleague, i scratched my car and so on... the thing is, i don't like my new job. frankly, it s**ks! my job s**ks! my day s**ks! can't wait to get a new job offer! why i hate my job? because, the environment is boring, the job's not to my expectation & my colleagues were not sooo nice, well to me at least... i feel like an outsider! i can usually adapt easily to my surroundings but this time, seems like i failed to do it! well, maybe because it's only 2 days since i began my job. maybe, i should give it some more time... maybe, if i try harder to talk to my colleagues, than i won't feel like an outsider anymore or maybe, i'm just not suited to this kind of job! so many maybe... i don't like 'maybes'... not my style! whatever it is, i must bear it until a better offer come! hohoho, me think job offers could come that easily?!!! in my dreams!!! i'm not a quitter! i'm NOT a QUITTER! I AM NOT A QUITTER! gaman... ganbatte kudasai... aja aja.. go fight win... patience is virtue! think poitive! ~ my way of restoring my spirit! q(^_^)p
and as scratching my car, no one to blame but myself! second time this month! hoho, i'm one lousy driver! first time, when i wanted to park! just now, when i backed my car! my spatial vision is bad, very bad! i never encountered any accidents while on road, well once but not my fault. the other car kissed my bumper while at a roundabout. but, when trying to park or reverse, i always encounter problems. maybe, it's true what they say about women! we cannot budget certain distance as well as men! but i CAN READ MAPS!!! hehe, i truly can, not bluffing! but, the scratch wasn't so bad!
now, back to my 'bad day' agenda! have you ever felt that when you woke up in the morning and you hated it! you didn't even started your day and yet you already despised it! i'm having that kind of feeling right now. the reason is quite clear, right?! because i hate my job. woah, if i kept saying 'i hate my job', then i will really hate it. i have to say, 'i love my job' instead to train my mind to like it. during the good old days, i loved waking up every morning and couldn't wait to begin a new day! a new day always promises something exciting and unexpected. now?! unexpected?! of course!! but exciting?! hmmm, only time will tell... guess what i found on the net?
but, at least my sour mood lightened as i went for movie with my friends! we planned to watch duyung but we changed our mind. we watched 10,000 bc instead! not bad, maybe they got some of their historical facts wrong, but the storyline is okay! got pyramids eh during that time? don't think so... next movies on my must watch lists are indiana jones and 27 dresses! wargh, 2 am already.... dreading the moment to finally go to work tomorrow, huhuhuhuhu! wargh, stop those negative thoughts already! think positive... perhaps tomorrow, by any chance, a handsome, rich, kind, eligible bachelor will come to the office and we'll fall in love at first sight... sigh, soooo not gonna happened! morn morn... time to sleep and face another day! good luck and don't forget to smile...

p/s currently studying at open university malaysia...
today, i started my new job at RD Technology. before this, i worked at Immigration Department in Putrajaya. so, the work environment is totally different. well, it's normal considering i changed from government sector to private sector. the biggest different is, the employees' quantity. here, at my new office, we have only 4 people, 5 if i include my boss. all of them are women except my boss (again), hehehe... i learned a lot of new things today. i learned how to do quotations, recording orders and purchases etc... all these are very new to me... a lil bit confusing but think i can manage well if i put effort on it! that's it for now! until later... bubye...
woooaah, finally the general election is over!!!! and the result is quite a shock to all of the malaysians especially to the BN. the opposition manages to take over 4 new states and even with all the campaigning in kelantan, PAS still won easily. the government can wave kedah, penang, perak and selangor goodbye. huhuhu, eventhough i'm not an expert in politics, i still want to express my view. i have the right to voice my opinion although it's CERTAINLY NOT expertly done.
truthfully, i grew up in a family with strong government aka BN values. so, it's plain to see that i'm a strong BN supporter eventhough i know it's not perfect. but, admit it, no party will ever be 100% perfect. it must have flaws here and there. we cannot expect something impossible. i'm from johor and johor is always consider a 'safe-state' and a strong fort for BN. johor always manage to take a clean sweep in every single election. but in 2004, we lost 1 state seat to PAS when the opposition won on nomination day when the BN candidate was disqualified. this year we lost 1 parliament seat and 6 state seats!!! safe eh?! strong eh?! not anymore. so, may this be a lesson to the BN leaders not to take the 'safe-state' label for granted anymore! the same situation also happened at kedah, perak and shockingly selangor! for me, when penang fall to the opposition, it's quite expected. i don't know why, i just can feel it...
hehe, one thing that is quite funny for me is that the opposition promised to lower the oil price if they won. that's something out of their power unless they plan to subsidize more than our government is giving now. whatever!!! we can see a lot of new faces especially MB for selangor, kedah, perak and CM for penang. lim guan eng is said to be the new penang's CM while khalid ibrahim the new selangor's MB. it maybe a good thing for BN when they didn't win 2/3 majority. it will open their eyes to take things more seriously. and perhaps the oppostion can make more improvement and development to the country... only time will tell i can't wait to see what's the future hold for us...
wargh, LUCKY ME... my assignment due date is 23 march. at least i've got enough time to finish them. btw, while i'm doing my assignment, i also happened to run into this personality type quiz on the net by accident. and i'm a sucker for quizzes. so i took the test and my result is ENTP. wanna know yours, just take the test here! here's mine! and it's about 90% true!!!!
