Good Friday or Bad Friday?

Today is friday, some people are having holiday because of today's occasion, which is "Good Friday". That's what the calander told me, hence it should be a fine friday for me, but heck no...it was not what I expected after I had dinner with my family outside.

We had our dinner outside instead of at home. As we finished our dinner and my mom was chatting with my cousins, there was a fight behind of our table (two guys, probably Indonesians), which we had not noticed of. The only thing that really, REALLY drew my attention was when one of the guy smashed the packet of coffee onto the floor. Imagine when a water-filled balloon was smashed onto the ground and the water was splashed all over the place. Well THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED!! Coffee was splashed all over the place and I was the right target to get coffee stains all over my damn white shirt!!

It was not just me though, even my parents, my sister and my cousins as well. I mean, what's the problem with him huh?! Can't he understood the consequence of what he did? Obviously he don't! My dad was very frustrated, so am I. The white shirt and the white cap I wore had coffee stains, which is very unpleasant. However we left the restaurant as soon as what happened, we didn't have the kind of mood to stay there any longer though.

A "good" friday turned out to be a "bad" friday to me. Hell...I hope that jerk will get some sort of punishment from the owner of the restaurant.

Dye or no dye?

Well..did you ever thinking of dye your own hair? That came across my mind sometimes, but I didn't actually did it though, maybe because of my lack of courage, or maybe afraid of being criticised by people I know.

The fact is, I pretty much prefer to retain the natural colour of my hair. Some of my friends complained that their hair were dry, as if there's a bunch of hay growing from their hair. However some said that they didn't experience that as long as you're having the right treatment. Yeah right...spending a few hundred bucks or so for your own hair wouldn't do the kind damage, but it did some on your own wallet...

I'm not criticising about it, there's still something good about it. There's once I went for a hair cut and the hairstylist told me if I'd like to dye my hair. Of course I rejected his offer since I didn't have enough red-notes in my wallet :-p Out of curiosity, I asked why I should dye my hair. From what he told me, he said I'll be more energetic and radiant after I dye. He even suggested mocha if I'm not forgotten, since it appears to be brownish black, and it suited for those who wish to dye their hair for the first time (that's me, but not now :-p)

Heh...maybe I'll try that before I graduate from college, that'll be a year from now, haha!! Anyway I'm just waiting for my courage, but don't think a coward is hidden within me, just that I can't really bear the kind of weird looks from people I know. Well how about you? What do u think?

Life without tele-communication

What happen when you found that you're unable to use your mobile phone for, let's say 2 or 3 days? You can't send a message nor call someone for a few days when you're lonely. Well that's what happening to me, I felt really unsecured when I found out I can't message or called from Friday onwards. Until today, I finally get this problem straighted up, because I had unpaid telephone bill for 2 months, paiseh...I went over the communication centre and made my payment, then after 2 hours, gao dim!!! I was able to use my mobile phone again. What a reality world I'm living in now...

Maybe I was over-relied on mobile phone to get myself connected, but it'll be terrible when it comes to emergency. Imagine that you're alone, and these happened to you: What happen if you need someone to come over to fix your car in the middle of the road? What happen if you need to call for ambulance, police or even fire-fighter? Or how bout this, what happened if you want to call your loved-ones when you're lonely? Try to think of any what-if question and imagine how bad it could be when you're out of communication.

If you know how important tele-communication is for you, then my advice is...always keep sufficient credits in your mobile phone loh...or if you're using postpaid, remember to pay your bills loh...don't be like me until I got my line suspended, haha!! :-p

My last day of work

Today is my last day of work, after that I'll be on leave for my exam, hence I must did the best I could for my boss since I'll not return back for work until I finish my exam, and that'll be around end of April. I'm really delightful to be employed under such company, my boss really understand that exam is more important than work, guess I'm the luckiest guy among my classmates though.

I went for work as usual today, but only to realize that I didn't have any work to do. After an hour or so, I was doing nothing but just staring at the monitor as if I'm waiting for something to pop out from there, or waiting for the monitor to explode so that I'll get attention for my ruined face, but of course those didn't happened lah, or else I won't be sitting here posting my blog :-p

Time passed really slow when boredom is encircling me, the only choice I can cope with was to study. I did brought my notes in case I have the excess time, so that was my chance to deal with the boredom I had. Although my boss passed by me and aware of what I'm doing, but he allowed me to study though. It's kind of scary when he suddenly passed by me, or when his wife suddenly appear from behind and asked about what I'm doing, but they allowed me to study since I wasn't being assigned to do anything, and they awared that passing the exam is more important than anything else.

So that's how I passed my working hour today - nothing to do all day. I was willing to be assigned to do something for my boss rather than doing nothing, because I felt like I'm ignoring my responsibility, but only for once and that's it.

Work at Concorde Inn KLIA

On 24th of March, I woke up at 7am sharp and get myself ready. Usually I won't get up on 7am sharp because of my habit of laying on bed until 7.15am, I'm a lazy-bone though, hah! That day I'll be working around KLIA for 3 days, which was something very new & excited to me, and this is a great oppurtunity for me to gain further experience on auditing.


I travelled alone to Concorde Inn alone though, since I had some monkey-work to be done at my office before I went there. I reached KLIA and started to look around, it was like I'm going for travel and will be back in Malaysia for a long time, but I'm not going anywhere though, I just came here to work that's all. I found my way to the shuttle bus to Concorde Inn at Sepang, and I took a ride to the inn, that's when I met up with my boss and my collegues there.

We're auditing the accounts of Concorde Inn after a wonderful lunch. I'm in charge of the account payable, hence my job was to check the balance of the amount due and make sure they paid for it, as well as the balance from the system should be the same with the payable's report. Anything which was unusual will be questioned, I think I made that person's life miserable by asking tons of question, but it's part of my job anyway.

It's hectic when we worked, but of course we didn't forget to enjoy ourselves after work. We went over to the coffee shop called "Melting Pot" for dinner. There was entertainment too, a band that played with thier guitar and sang while we're enjoying our meal. I loved how they sang 听海, it's very beautifully sang, kinda envy on how they performed with their guitar though.

I really had a great time, but I missed home after the third day. Now I'm home, felt great but tired. Wish that I have another opportunity to work like this.

My result...why??

16th of March is the day where all Tarcians are waiting for - the release of the current semester's result. I,too was really nervous about it,but I expect myself to pass all of them since I put in really much effort, but things ain't turned out to be what I wanted...

While clicking into the TARC website, I'm really nervous until my whole body is shaking, I can't tell whether is the malfunction of my nerve system or the below 10 degree celcius chill air made me trembled, I was in the office, mind you. When I looked at my result, the first thought in my mind was "Shit!! Son of a bxxx, fail?!?" Yes...two subjects didn't pass, Perfromance Management and Taxation, I really can't believe I failed!!

Still, I can't deny the truth and I must face it. Although I'm able to resit those papers, and I can proceed to year two as well, but come to think of it...I studied until late at night, I did and understand most of the tutorials, I even went to college just to have a tranquil study area, and what did I got huh? Fail units!! Damn!!

Hah...enough of my aggresiveness here, it won't help much anyway, the only solution is to study and prepare for the resit loh...Anyhow, failure is the beginning of success, I must be able to cope with this and stand up again, since I don't wan't to fail my duty as student.

A wallet from Botswana

I think I may made you guys bored about my own story, well this time let me tell something that happened when I went for my haircut nearby.

I was withdrawing some money from an ATM in Carrefour, when I happenly saw a black wallet just above the machine. Curiously, I picked it and scrutinised what might have inside. Surprisingly, the owner of the wallet is not from local, but from Botswana, a landlocked country in Southern Africa. His immigration card is inside though, so it is quite cumbersome for him when he lost it. I really have the intention to return it to him, but I just don't know how in the world I should do that.

I continued to examined the content inside the wallet. There's RM20 inside, but I ignored it, it doesn't interested me anyway. Then I found a guide to accomplish my "mission", a name card! It's not his name card though, it's a card from university located nearby. I called over and told the receptionist about the wallet I had in my hand now. The receptionist was grateful for what I've done, and enquired whether I'm convinient to return it. I told them I'll do that on Monday since I'm not that convinient.

You may think I'm a busybody, but I just can't let him ran into trouble for his missing wallet, especially his immigration card. If he lost it, that'll mean that he's an unlawful immigration, and that could meant trouble to him. Well finally, I wan't to say that don't be greedy, it gives you the benefits, but in the same time you're causing trouble to the others, remember that.
