"sappai"

how do i usually go thru the weekends?

1. Drama watching
2. Sleeping
3. Doing nothing
4. Eating Hokkien Prawn Noodles every saturday and Curry Noodles every alternate Sundays
5. Family dinner every Sunday (eat out version)

and i realised how "O-U-T" i am. I did not realise there's an A&W outlet on Gurney Walk nor there is a traffic light stop on one of the main streets in Island Glades that connects to Yeap Chor Yee road.

yet so what? why making such a big fuss on that?

a friend gave me a L-O-U-D "AIYOH" last night.

well i think if i do not have anything to do or buy why bother go to one of the hottest place on the earth of Penang called Gurney Plaza where the traffic jams almost happen for 24/7. Last night i was caught in a massive jam for half an hour and another 15mins just to get a parking place in Gurney. and what is worst is that i drove 2 rounds passed kelawai road then to gurney drive just to get into the multi storey car park in Gurney Plaza. Realising the stupidness of driving for the 3rd round i could not bother more thus parked my car on the space next to gurney plaza which is also managed by Gurney Plaza management only that it's an open air car park. Luckily it was at night or else you will get to eat Roasted Bling

so i strongly reckon all the ppl here dun ever go to GP during peak period. Sien looking at the jam on the roads! Penang's getting excessively jam. My friend who went to KL to work for only 3 months had a huge shock last night. She said what's goin on with Penang lately? So much cars huh?

Let me tell u a fact. Car plate number registration is running as fast as the thunder and lightning could go. My Kelisa was registered 2 months ago and it is called PGT **18. Today it's PGV. What i wanna stress is that a letter runs for a month only.

Freaking 1 month OK?

That actually tells u why i dun like going down to the city of Penang during weekends cus the traffic can never be smooth. So how else i know when and where we have new openings of food outlets or boutiques? On top of that i have absolutely nothing to shop.

Innocent i should say as i was trying to look for the envelop for some documents in one of the cabinets the metalic spray bottle fell and dropped on my left foot this afternoon.

Right away blue black could be seen. And it is still very painful now! A simple touch could release the pain.

Frustrating...

friend--ster

i tried logging in to one of the hottest site on earth called friendster.

2 attempts using Mozilla Firefox = Failed

First attempt with Internet Explorer = Passed Through

After i manage to log into my Personal Page on Friendster i was impressed! Impressed again by how much they changed the layout of it. But to no avail, all my attempts to "kaypo" like it be viewing pictures or checking who has viewed me all failed to load.

And this is not the first time friendster had changed their layout and then causes it taking ages to load. and currently while i'm blogging, the page that i click on to view pictures is still loading and it will take forever to load. ISH!

tsk tsk...

so i wasnt that impressed afterall.

i learnt a new phrase yesterday. I will share it with you guys when i see you next week.

sicko

previous post was a picture of the team tht i'm working in dell. well i haven't had the time to pen down a few words regarding that. it doesnt matter heh.

Anyway...
Time's running out. A few days is left at work. Yay! I'm really tired of working now. this month especially i've worked 22 hours of OT.

imagine coming home everyday at 7. I could not imagine later on if i were to get a job that requires me to work till 10 or 12. I would be in deep shit. It's really damn tiring. Ytd was the worst day. Felt hungry at 9.30am which led to me having my lunch at 11.

yes that early!

And then while working on what am i supposed to do i felt very much pain on my head. Had a very bad headache. To make things more difficult is that my eyes were in pain too. Shall it be a symptom of anything? It started 3 days before. or might it be What i need is just sleep?

And i didnt had enough sleep last night. Slept quite late, woke up at 7.30 am.
My time is all screwed up. and i think it's gonna be even more screwed up this wednesday night.

and hopefully i wont look like a panda on the 2nd when im supposed to snap pics of my graduation. One of the most important day of my life. Oh please dont make me look like a panda.

moved

The PC set now sits well in the living room after i kick it out from my super small room.

Talking about PCs,I bought this system about 2months ago and right after a month of usage not that i wanna say anything. My Creative speaker produces noises which is a sign that it actually is a faulty product. Well it actually develop a kind of feeling in me that this brand isnt that good after all. The next time im gonna buy a speaker it wouldnt be Creative anymore i should say. This happens to a lot of people who make purchases who i should say customer experience and confidence. I seriously lack of these on Creative now.

The speaker was sent in for warranty servicing for how long u guess?

1 month! Freaking long 1 month! and then they could not repair it that they replace the speaker. huh?

Anyway i only wish to express my frustration over the purchases i made.

And today what i did was digging out the medium sized luggage bag and cleaned it. Now finding a way to pack the things in that small luggage bag.

Come to think about it...i think i'm not bringing much food. What i have is only Heong Pneah, Rojak Paste, Agar-agar, Ms Low's special request mushroom soup and Curry Chicken Paste and it's already H-E-A-V-Y.

Yet to buy is Tau Sar Pneah, Phong Pneah and "Shanghai Chai".

Not much though. haihs....i have no idea what is there to buy to bring over. I think i better figure out how to pack my things first before anything.

on OT for the past few days for 2 weeks

havent been blogging for a week.
the story wil begin this way

Last week was a real busy week. I was busier than a bee is. And no doubt this week isnt relaxing afterall.

Went for a BBQ party organised by a colleague who stays in Tg Bungah last Friday. Will show u the pics we took if my colleague do send it to me.

And then back to work after the long weekend with loads of work to do. Almost everyday other day if the clock never hit 7 you wont see me packing up heading towards home sweet home.

But today with my auntie coming to pay me a visit, i left earlier leaving behind 6 price books that i have yet to finish. It seems that i have to finish it tomorrow no matter what because if i dont i will fall behind as we are required to attend a meeting on Friday at Northam Tower as it is the kick-off for our dept.

And so i was supposed to attend a dinner tomorrow at 68 Kelawai with my colleagues due to their Quarter 2 calendar kick-off which i now not sure if i have to go.

Well if im not going means i'm not gonna see the"big" ppl of Dell for the dept that im working for and also the nice food! *drools*

And even if i dont go i can have my own sweet time w/o needing to eat and talk in front of strangers. That's just not being myself to keep my mouth shut. As it is an awkward and strange situation to be quiet because out of 10 sentence they say i think i only do understand 1 sentence. (not the least though kekeke...sometimes i dont catch anything!)

Anyways...we shall see how.

Before anything, my manager approved my leaves! yay! yay!!!


2 weeks more to catch the flight to fly all the food and dramas to Sydney and of course myself :P

I have not finished shopping for food. Like i have to get Him Heang Tau Sar Pneah and Phong Pneah as well as Curry Chicken Paste and Shanghai Pickled Vegetables.

The rest that i need are all sitting in my luggage bag.

What more to do now? Wait for time to pass lah! and also expect more work like Price books to do in the coming 1 and a half week before i fly as free as flocks of flying birds and leave the word that starts with D for a while. (if only i can fly forever in the skies with no worries) haihss...

One thing im considering now.
To climb or not to climb? To Melbourne or not to? or to Jervis Bay?

I need something to tell me where should i go. The right answer to it is

$$$$

now i know

Just got back from the Steamboat Dinner. Had a great night eating, laughing and of course 8-ting!
Who was there? 7 of us from the same school and the rest 3 are their post high school friends. And i saw this guy called F who is a friend of my high school mate that i think is quite good looking. kekekeke *blink*. Unfortunately we did not snap any pictures.

It doesnt matter anyway.

Coming to date i realise one thing which i think i told a friend before, i found guys who wear glasses better looking. Why? Cus they look smarter and of course there are exceptional case as it depends on what type of glasses u wear. :p

And this is what i kept forgetting. I see this guy in particular without fail almost every other day at work. He reminds me of a friend who i havent see for some time cus they look so so similar. The difference is that he is shorter than my friend is. We are not from the same dept though. But i see him almost every other day. haihss..if only he is the friend i know. But it's impossible cus he wont end up working in Dell.

And today i felt so so irritated that i wanna scold that irritater again! But i wont let it spoil my wonderful rainy day. No matter what i still had a wonderful night last night with the jokes cracked by a friend. Let today be a good day to be remembered.
Besides, i have a Steamboat dinner with my School Mates.

Happy May Day

i believe in this now

Shop Till You Drop

Having a long weekend doesnt mean it's good. You will tend to spend more on shopping.
In just these 3 days i spent..hang on let me calculate.

Groceries that costs me MYR 53

New Pillow that costs me MYR 13 (cheap rite)

New Bag that costs me MYR 45

Clothes that costs me MYR 57

Petrol that costs me MYR 50 (a periodic expense)

Totalled to MYR 218

Worked 5 days a week. Total disposable income per week = (56.66 * 5) * 0.89

equals to

MYR 252.14

Weekly Profit/Loss Statement = MYR 34.14 (which is my lunch for 5 days)

Oh no...i think i overspent for the week. but i havent finished buying

Need a pair of Sandal and Loafers. Purchases has to be postponed to a week before departure to Sydney.

hmm....
