Award

Yesterday was a surprise, get an award by unexpectedly, may be will get scolded for saying that, but i really didn't expect anything on this. It was an quarterly award, although it's not a big award, but still an award made me ashamed as i really felt myself wasn't qualified for this award because i still weak in every aspect, still need guidance from everyone to complete my daily task s and settle issues.It did is a strong award that others will thought you are very competant, but to me, i felt my shoulders became more heavy then ever.

But i must appreciate and thanks for my leader, AE, mentors, teamates and fellow friends who did help on this achievement, i will keep it up and try my best to perform. Hope that i will not disappointed those people who are putting high hope at me.

My AE had won same awards twice which made him entitled with the Prestigious Rolex, hoho, rich guy...hehe, but he really deserved it as he really the No.1 hardworking AE.Although had been co-working with him the 3rd Q, still not very familiar with him but do appreciate his working attitude and mind.

However, I won myself a Victorinox Big Ben NB bag, an trophy, certification and some $$.

(Guys, I am not stingy for not spending any penny to treat you all, but i did need it for some purpose.:P)

Yesterday my network hang again made me late a bit to post this out.Luckily my draft was saved, if not i had to retype again.

Today morning had try to treat my teamates and the people who helped me with breakfast, unfortunately some of them didn't work as today was a public holiday. Nevermind, my sincerity is there already:P

Internet Explorer cannot show this page".

Yesterday evening was going for basketball game at USM as usual. Quite happy although i play damn bad in the game.After going back home, i noticed i lost my white gold ring that with me about 3 years already.I think it is missing when i try to get my key from my bag.So i decided to find it the next day. Felt upset, want to write a post about it, but again, i failed to sign in for "N' times, until i fed up and give up.

To chase away the unhappiness , i watched Bleach anime again and chating with my frens about the election unexpected results and share each opinion.Although i didnt know much about it, din't vote due to distance problem, and never pay much attention on politics, but i do found something interesting about election in Penang.I even follow closely sit in front of TV for the latest news.From this time, i realize we can choose our own life,sure will vote for the next time.

Today after working, rush to USM to look up my ring. Fortunately i found it under somebody's car.A guy help me take it out, but unfortunately it is twisted a litle bit and ring side sharpened, can't be wear again, very upset.:(

Then back to home, trying to log in blog to say something, again, still can't log on.What is going on with my blog? haiz.....I decided to go for badminton session with my colleagues on every Monday night. When i go to there, nobody of my gang is there!!!
Ooopps........paiseh, only me alone?! It is impossible, call!Call!Call!
"Chris oh, we thought u dint go, so we din't go lor"....hehehe, ya, because of uncomfortable, i had say i possibly not going..hmmm....haiz...What is next for my day, i hope nothing more will happen, my heart is not strong enough for further fluke.

Finally i have dinner with my friend and reach home safely and the last but not least, i manage to sign in for this post.This is the end of my misfortune day.
Actually get back what i had lost considered half happiness too---plug from my friend's quote

Happiness moment

Today is 12th election of Malaysia, but i am not going to write about that.

Wake up in the morning, still feel sleepy although had a long rest enough after one week tortured by my job, my mum is way back to Alor Star for election while i am staying home.

I din't go out for lunch as what i did at normal weekend, laying on bed, spend almost half day watching my favourite anime-Bleach and drama-Fight, want or not.

About 4pm, i start to bath myself, dress nicely to attend my colleague's party for her engagement. She held the buffet at her husband's house--Sg Petani.

A happy moment for my dear colleague's party,we car pooling to Sungai Petani at 08/03/2008.

There was a "mighty" map guided us along the way(no one know the route), actually we arrived SP at 7pm, but the map leads us around the place, wandering till 8pm. At last, we surrendered, and ask her come out to show the way. :)

Seeing they were so happy together, really felt warmth. Let's share the moment.

1st row: Su Sian, Irene,Lee Lee,Gaik Khim

2nd row: Chris,Stefanie, Jaws, Katherine

With pretty wedding cake

Dinner at Tao-Egate

"Oversea" dinner can't be done as the venue is on e-gate Tao, :p
This is my 1st time visit to Tao-Japanese Buffet, thanks for Sam Song, the host tonight who generously treat us a nice dinner.

No pictures was taken, too busy for eating the delicious serving food :P
It is quite special restaurant for me, because it is serving buffet actually, paid by counting per head about RM55 include tax.
Secret Tips: Guest come in Tao before 6.30pm entitle 10% discount per head!!

What is so special about it? The food is not serving there and you help with urself but u will have a menu to order whatever food that in the menu. BTO?I guess so.
With these, may be they can save more, as customer who lazy to keep ordering will eat less, hehe, but not us....:p We are very "eatable" person:@
Caution: Please do not order excessively due to there was a fine of RM10 per 100g food left, and they do follow strictly on this rules. My friends who finish 2/3 of the Tom Yam soup had been asked to finish all before they clean out the table.

After 4/5 rounds full force orders, we finally abnegate the idea for ordering more because we are almost full till sore throat. Seems like this week my exercises quantity should be double up....hohoho

Blackout at company

Today about noon, a blackout happened to the whole building, at that time, i was in training townhall "enjoying" lunch box, experienced a romantic candle light lunch meanwhile listening to the training.

Everybody is expecting a long time power outage so the lunch time will be extended or even leave earlier for today. Director announced to have a early lunch, some already get out of office before that, some planning to stay outside longer time, and some still busy with their jobs (higher level with NB & the facility, who responsible to recover the power outage).

I called up a friend who now is on hospitalization, because of acute Appendicitis'typhlitis. I felt disgusting when he described his wound and severity of pain he is having now, pitiful, but can't help him on anything. He is so far away, not even able to pay him a visit, will blessing him to get better soon.

Get back to the blackout, unfortunately, after 20 minutes i think , the electricity is back to normal. It's time to refocus again. Can't wait till tonight , will go "oversea" to have a nice dinner with colleagues if everythings going smoothly, stay tune for further update ...

Sunday-Rainy day~~Part 2

Finally at 6pm , it stop raining and i still going to finish my weekly routine task,hehe:P
But i knew that it wont be a really nice game over there since wet floor and those preeminence players won't come. Can be more relax small game too...Hopefully there was at least some people coming.

Bingo, my anticipation was right. Times to works out...keep hoping the guy will still coming as may learn more things from his brilliant mind. May be next week la:)

Sunday-Rainy day~~

I hate that the situation where preparation had been done, but the event/date was cancelled at last minute indeed, truly felt bad. But today, nothing can do since my friend is attacking by stomachache, so the date to Botanical Garden is out. I decided evening must have my basketball session, due to yesterday wasn't playing so nice in the game, hope can improve some in today's game.

I can't get back to sleep again, so i go to the morning market to buy veges and chicken bone for lunch preparation. Sour preserved szechuan pickle soup, omelette with beans and stir green brocoli with mushroom, sounds nice, taste also not bad actly, but if want to be PRO as my mum, still need intensive trainings. But as long as can cook one or two dishes for filling own stomach, i think is good enough. hehe...self satisfacton :P

When i get fully "uniformed" and step out of my door, the rain started.
I still can recall, bad things are coming twice :( @#$%^&*&^%#$%&Why.....haiz....I do love the cool feeling after raining, but not for my basketball time and the time i ride to work, ok? That's why now i am knocking on keyboard to complain this. Even it is stip raining now, but the floor already wet.....

My mood now are depressed+gloomy+morose....how could it spoiled my Sunday?

Lollipop

On 28th Feb 2008, actually today is Taiwan public holiday-Memorize Peace Day, but we still need to go to work as company won't take it as holiday :(


Today seem likes more busy than normal days although i plan to clear up stuff, mailbox, customer's details and on. But my planning had been pull down as there was total 3 trainings in one day-ESG, Intel & services. My brain will be tortured by all those infrastructure, specs, usage and technical support. My RAM is not enough to run those application in a short time, meanwhile my HDD is still at PATA speed and ran out of space already, keep flake out but i really trying to focus on.


Finally, continue to Intel's training, today's lunch in food and beverage deserve a A for me, the best thing is i can enjoy a Macadamia Nut favour Hagen Daze ice cream.And the most interesting gift is the lollipop that as a souvenir, that's make me remind on how long had i been left out of the old times?

Last time i use to have 20 sen pocket money per day when i was standard 1. How i spend my fortune? 10 sen for snack or junk food, left 10 sen to be keep to buy more "high price band" things.The most favourite snack was Mamee, Twisties, i-pop ice stick,Black & White bubble gums, Egg shape candy,Sugus, Asam ko,Halls,sour plum (white/red), dry lime, dry mango stick, Tora, Chocolate ball in small box.....I am a real junkies. When free time, play Pepsi-Cola, Acirut, Thief and Soldiers, Seven rocks, Zero point, Pai Ka（lameness on 1 leg), Jump Aeroplane Box and playground.

After so many years, although this junk food still exist, but nowadays children are having others deluxe food.They use to have Baskin Robin ice cream rather than i-pop.They use to eat Mr.Pringles other than Mamee.They use to have Starbucks coffee than homemade coffee ice. Their leisure activities will be playing Wii, PS3, War games, PC, chatting , sms, mms, shopping, online, MP3/4, watching DVD, or enjoy movie in cinema.

Are they considered blessedness?So how do we?We considered as unfortunate?Just a different
perspective and measurement, the new era's evolution is on going all the times, no one nor nothing can stop that from happening. But at the same time, what's happen to humans soul and mentality, i afraid that is was contrary to our anagenesis.

How do you think you keep yourself up to date? In +++++ ways, or in ------- ways?

At last , end up my day in training and trying to settle the 2 weeks unsolved issue, keep wandering me and couldn't being relax even after work, pitiful...affliction...Today the issue comes to a dead end. I had to go for the last resolution, although , i really want to solve it by myself. :@ What to do the situation is on other's side?
