    Making things happen is different from hoping things to happen

    For sure, this blog gonna be a long long one for me. As I have not been updating it since July, so I could imagine there are so many things that had happened (sweey, sour, bitter etc...). Millions of words to say but unfortunately I dun have an elephant brain to store all :) I have to even read my last entry to recall what had i written last. At first I was making a rough guess thought it was just about 1 yr ago.. but in fact it's absolutely not. My last blog entry to now, it has been almost 2 yrs
     
    Em.. how shld I begin. Well first of all, I have no longer with my ex-company QTA. I had been working at my ex-place for exactly one yr before I changed to my new job now. I have been with my new job for 1 yr since I changed my job. My experience back in QTA was excellent, having it as a full time job, as a consultant, providing training, with a bunch of great colleague companies. It was indeed an unforgetable memories. There were a lot of great learnings although sometimes the work there can be very risky at certain time.. (especially solution doesn't pop up to my mind). However, I was lucky enough throughout the journey to accomplish my tasks. I'm sure my ex-working team-mate will understand me more in the situation.
     
    My life I would say is so climax where so many things have happened just like  going through few transition states whether is in career, social, family, relationship etc.. I guessed everything is pretty related and that makes me think of now "I'm living for nobody in this world but myself and my living would affect ppl around me" - Simply because I think I don't live in the space where it's only myself... haha...
     
    My new working place now is at Menara Citibank - but not working for Citibank. I'm now attached with the company called E2Open. My field of working is still in QA (Software). The major difference btw this company with my ex-company would be now I'm working in-house (QA) but last time my QA exposure would be mainly on outsourcing service. In fact i've just passed my 1st annivessary with this company 2 days ago.
     
    Things been so far so good for me.. thanks everybody with the blessing given to me. Let's hope for better opportunities ahead to keep leveling up myself
     
    This weekend I'm bringing my two cousins to Genting. Well it's all planned for taking them to the Theme Park etc.. Just wanna spend some time with them and of course they both are so excited about it. Every now and then I make it a habit to spend time with my family especially my aunty and grandma on every weekend.
     
    This week I've been quite free as there's some breathing space/gap for my project work. Been calling/messaging my ex-college mate friends to catch up. So if u r one of them who feel that long time we have not been keeping in touch then call/msg me..
     
    I'll keep myself a reminder to update my blog regularly just like one of my friend told me.. I shld do tht at least to keep my friends around me informed/updated what i've been doing currently.. and more importantly to keep my friends around to not forget abt me
     
     
    - Cheers - Good Day -

    Relax Weekend

    Almost 1 and a half month i did not update my blog. Ever since i started to work I hardly surf web even though almost every night I come on9. Time really flies.. I work for abt 2 months dy so fast.. In these 2 months I have to do a lot of things.. Learning.. Reading..Experimenting.. bla bla bla. Just bcoz I wanna pick up things quickly. I have to be a very good multitask player.
     
    Everyday work, sleep, eat and nothing... But last week i went to hong's brother convocation not very productive though but ok lar fair enough coz I went all the way to TAR College, KL. I was shocked when I was there bcoz all the graduates are diploma holder somemore so many of them. I think at least 300 of them. I think back when I was in diploma and higher diploma actually nvr thought of attending convo. But maybe TAR has a lot more students I guess. Emm.. life now is all abt work.. This time really out of touch with my friends dy. Maybe they also think I'm bz that's why din call me (I HOPE)
     
    I'm engaged with Maybank now providing training. Not an easy task man.. why bcoz there's so many funny & irritating trainees. Of course a lot of things I learnt being an instructor but at the same time I think I have this conclusion where by amongst all the races,  Indians are the most considerate ppl (In corporate industry), Chinese is most difficult to handle. I'm there at Dataran Maybank for more than 2 weeks dy.. Will finish training 10th Aug. After that I'm not yet back to office bcoz I have some installation and demo to conduct. My tentative date to be back to office will be Oct.
     
    Gosh.. now only coming to Aug but my schedule has already been filled up to Oct. In the midst of the project I have to prepare for product examination in Sept at Singapore. Not me only going but with my colleagues. Just 1 day before my birthday.     
     
    Yeah.. my grandma is coming back soon! She must be freaking now coz she has to board the plane herself next week. A lot of things happenned when she wasn't here. She will be shocked when she's back to see all the changes. Haha.. Surprise!! Now Mega Sales thought of grab some foot wears and clothes but a bit reluctant coz dun wan 2 spend so much money.. sigh.. Dilemma!!
     
    2day I'm damn hardworking.. do all my house keeping works then somemore wash my car. What to do I'm stingy to spend 8 bucks to send for car wash.. haha..

    Short weekend!

    Nowadays, weekend has been considered a short period of time for me. Even though there's 2 rest days but it seems that i dun really spend my weekend. Weekend time passes extremely fast.. That day Friday after work I went movie with my colleague at Summit, USJ. We watched Mr & Mrs Smith, the show not bad n quite interesting. Angelina Jolie looks really gorgeous n sexy.

    Anyway, after the show we went for a drink b4 all of us went home. My auntie was surprised that how come i went home so late she din expect me actually going out with my colleague.. but apparently uncle jeff guessed it.

    Nothing much actually i have done during the weekend. I went shopping with my auntie on Saturday at Pyramid, the place now always crowded with ppl on weekend. SOmetimes really crazy n it's extremely difficult to get parking. I bought one shirt n i paid myself.. haha.. First time actually paying myself when i'm with my auntie. Even she also feels uncomfortable seeing me paying n not getting use to it. But it's time for myself to be financially independent. I still recall i sms my fren but left out one more question. So i sms her twice actually n got fired from her second replying saying why can't i ask all questions in a sms..  .. hehe.. But actually i'm not purposely wan.. so if she's reading this i say sorry 2 her again.. Next time i will remember that    

    So then after Pyramid I went to furniture shop. My auntie wants to change our home furniture arrangements so decided to buy a new sofa set. But did not decide on our first trip. Then 2day with everybody including my uncle, auntie n two brats we went to the furniture shop again after lunch. So 2day is the last day of sales. So means she has to decide either or not. But finally after all the looking, seeing, feeling n touching of the sofa then she decided to buy.. Delivery will be in 3 weeks time.

    Supposed to go home straight but then they change their mind to go to Giant to do some grocery shopping. After everything ended to reach home at 7 something. So after this will go to bath, dinner then sleep and 2mrw work.. aiks... I really hope i will be on engagement soon.

    Long... long.. story

    It has been sometime i did not update my blog. Even that I'm supposed to write up and share my stories.. but just too lazy to come online at night. The day time i'll be on9 but seriously hv no time to update. Not like when i'm studying that time I can come on9 anytime i want n just feel to do some useless stuff..

    When i'm working with my auntie probably i still hv the time but now i won't want to do it in the office i'm working. Not so much that the place is restricted to do so but i need plenty of time n enjoy telling my story.. (grandma stories).. Erm.. how should i start off my last week story heh?? Yah.. on 29th May (graduation's day) I was there at Renaissance n I supposed i'm not late but a lot of ppl were there oledy.. so i think all of them are so excited like me too.. hehe.. To shorten my story i was very happy that i met most my coursemates n get to snap lotz of photo with them. But it's quite a tiring day whr hv to walk up down non stop. The ceremony actually doesn't take up much time only the registration n photo taking session that made the day long.

    So after everything had finished we then had the 2nd session which is the dinner time. As per plan, we had gone to this Saisaki Restaurant to have Japannese Buffet. The place food was quite good because they have quite a lot of variety but the only thing is that the ppl there eating were quite of scaring where they like fighting for the food especially at the sushi counter. So i ended up din try their sushi coz lazy to go and cramp with the ppl there.. Anywayz, the dinner was very enjoyable because all of us have a nice chat n laughter all the time.

    Then two more days after that (1st June) was my first day of work. The person supposed to teach me things was away to ourseas with training. Therefore he had passed his instruction of what i'm supposed to do while waiting for him to come back to another colleague. He was told to help me if i have any questions along the way i'm learning on my own. Though this colleague has been very helpful n very willing 2 answer if i hv any quetions. So then i wonder whether i'm disturbing him or not even though he always will say no problem. Other than this guy colleague, I have another colleague whom is a lady this time oso have helped me along the way if I have any questions. I'll be actually doing what both of them are doing now. I'm glad that both of them are those kind of ppl that can easily talk to. This won't make me feel uncomfortable to work with them.

    But honestly, both of them are quite smart n efficient in completing their task. I can sense that they are capable.. that's why I wish I'm a fast learner n can help them to work out things. So after a week working i'm slowly seeing the way i'm supposed to move. I'm so worry that I'm too stupid to understand what their doing because the ppl are working in fast pace. I'm afraid that I couldn't catch up. So sometimes I have to get myself more proactive by asking them more questions on what's happening n how can i give a hand. At the same time oso I dun just throw questions to them so depending on the situation. I don't want to have a day where they cannot stand me.. -.-'

    So meantime everytime is going so far so good n i really hope i can move far from where i am now..  2day after i come back to my house i received a call whr asking whether i'm at home or not. It at first sounds funny to me then i proceed to ask who's the person n calling from where. The the lady answered secret n surprise becoz they have a gift for me.. I was like hah?? The lady just wanna chk will i be at home later n she will come to deliver so then I waited n I'm thinking who's that gonna be? Then only when i received it. It's actually a bear gift from my auntie's friend (Auntie May) wishing me belated congratulation for my graduation.

    I think must be either yesterday or 2day that my auntie had spoken to Auntie May that I have graduated n bla bla bla.. So that's why she sent me a gift to congratulate me.. Anywayz, I'm really surprised n din every cross my mind that it's Auntie May.... hehe.. So going to call later to thank her but the problem is i dun hv her number n i call my auntie she din pick up my call. I think she'll be surprised oso that i received gift from her friend.. So looking at the time now I have to go n shower.. hv dinner then come back ZZZzzzz n work 2mrw..

    Wasting my Time!!

    Yesterday i went for meeting in the morning so by the time i got back from kl is alr abt 2 pm. N supposed i have appointment with the streamyx installer at 3 pm. So then i was thinking no point of me to go back 2 office a while then only go back home.

    Eventually i waited for the person 2 come n install but until 3.30 pm i still din see the person reaching. So i made a call to check n the stupid fella said i was around ur place earlier so can we postponed to Sat? I was so mad because i purposely come back to wait so i lie to him said cannot coz i puporsely take half day leave.. hehe.. Ended up he said he will come at 6 pm after his meeting. Wasted my time otherwise i will be at office 2 do something. 

    Finally.. i hv streamyx at home.. haha.. supposed to have when i'm rushing for my final yr. Even so should be useful too when i got back home to surf something.. no need to mumble to my pc while waiting.. haha.. 

    My uncle told me tis afternoon my car had complete inspected. So according to him, he will go back on Monday n bring back the car on Tuesday. So that I can hv transportation to work on Wed. Actually i tot off have a short trip to somewhere b4 i start work but duno whr 2 go oso lar.. I want to go somewhere special but not so far away coz lazy of driving.. hehe.. I can only think of Seremban & Melaka...

    Abt 3 something I received call from Maybank Finance to interview me on my loan. The officer asks lots of questions. b4 that they called my house n the officer told me that my cousin picked the phone up n not able to tell who am i..   So big boy oso dunno how 2 answer phone luckily he din answerhis favourite phrase "i don't know"

    That day i called my grandma asking her whether she had enough pocket money in UK or not. She sounded like missing us a lot.. She'll be coming back in end of July. Hong has confirmed his trip to Saudi on 25th June. He's going there with lots of remuneration n privilege. Business class flight.. six star rated hotel.. so good.. I wish i can be as lucky as him when i'm on my work.. being treated so nicely...hehehe

    Lousy Day!

    Yesterday night i n hong went to SS2, PJ. We went to pick our friend Adrian to have dinner 2gether. So happen on the way out from SS2 we saw a lot of ppl participating procession in celebrating Wesak Day. So the jam was quite heavy for a while. We were so unlucky to meet a stupid fella who's asking for fight 

    I'm driving on a one way road at the junction n we wanted to take a left turn out which the way traffic is quite slow. Then there's one car coming from my opposite direction wanted to turn into my road which rightfully not supposed to because it is an one way road. I didn't give way because or else i have to make a fuss to reverse my car all the way down just 2 let him pass. The fella behaved so impatiently n rude. When the traffic is moving then i got the chance to turn out. So i tot nothing whr i'm moving out n he can make his illegal move. Later i think abt 5 minutes the stupid fella purposely come over n knock our window n asking hong to come down 2 fight with all sort of craps n asking who's ur boss ..bla bla bla.. we were shocked n duno what's happening then found out that actually when i was turning out hong was talking to adrian n showing him something by raising his hand. So that fella tot that we were pointing n cursing at him.

    Of course then hong was quite piss off with him being so rude at first n now coming to look for fight n all that stuff. But because we knew tis guy is a trouble maker that's why we din fight back even though it's not our fault. Then that fella makes his move after satisfied n enough of screaming. We were thinking if the fella were to meet another person who's exactly like him then there will surely be a fight. Really problematic person   

    2day i went to Maybank Finance to sign my HP agreement. I went to 2 wrong places b4 i get to the right branch. In Subang area alone i dun find the reason having so many branches i guess they hv more than 5. After finished my things i went for lunch with my auntie n uncles. After that i went to post office to courier my things back 2 my hometown.

    What a bad day i made mistakes during work. Luckily she din really "sabur me" but find myself so stupid making the mistakes  Of course i hope i make mistakes now n not when i'm working with others otherwise they won't be that good 2 me     

    Tis morning my colleague Brian called me 2 confirm whether am i reporting on 3rd June.. I think they scare i FFK  Convo is coming. Not long after convo then hv 2 work liao... so means working day is coming soon too..

    Sienzz

    I went to Apiit on Saturday to collect my gown. I cannot imagine how i will look like when wearing it coz the gown is very long n big. Especially when worn on a person who dun hv a nice shoulder..

    At first when we reach to register there were hardly anyone around. I guess it's still early for them.. Then after abt half n hour the ppl start walking in. I n my friend Peggy thought we were lucky because dun hv to queue long. Actually the registration n gown collection were nothing but filling in another form really killing n wasting time. Worse thing is the answer for the form was written in Bahasa which I n my fren could not find the relevant field to us. I wonder why is it in Bahasa?!

    We were lucky though coz we managed to get a S size gown. My fren at first tot there were only two sizes M n L coz the staff leave two sizes for trying. Luckily we asked otherwise we will have to wear a long long gown. I went there 10 am n I tot will be back home around 11 something. But i ended up reach home at abt 12 noon. Taking up time because I n Peggy loitering around Apiit    

    Last two days hong n my uncle weren't around. Hong went for company trip n my uncle went back hometown to settle my stuff. 2day both of them will be back sure will have a lot of things to tell.. hehe

    2day it rains heavily in the morning. Had a really nice sleep dun feel like kicking myself up..haha!!  At least the weather 2day not as hot as yesterday. Yesterday afternoon, I felt like i'm melting..

    Go!Go!Go!

    Another two weeks time i will leave my auntie's office. So now preparing things for her b4 I get caught bz with my new commitments. Today we had a very productive discussion discussing abt the website development.

    Working with my auntie sometimes can be fun but sometimes can be very stressful because she's the type whr she wants things to be in top form not like .. So in a way I work with her I get very good training by brushing myself up. So if i can persist with her so I think I can bear with my client in future.. hoho

    Just like that day I went 2 a boutique n ask for something but out of the reason they charge me more expensive than b4 whr i'm asking for lesser work from them. So out of that circumstances I ask back why do I hv to pay the amount. In a way, I'm asking for the reason but it seems to hong (he was with me tat time) that i'm confronting them.. fiuh.. so the conclusion that he come out is I behave differently after a couple of months working with my auntie... haha

    So isn't it true or not? I'm yet to look out.. hehe

    May 10

    Busy or Free?

    Long time I hv not updated my blog since after i came back from hometown. I went back to my hometown on last weekend is due to some emergency whr my god-uncle has passed away caused of cancer.

    He eventually been very strong but I guess his situation had reached to the climax n that made him suicide. After all he should felt relieve. But because he died in suicide that makes me n my family members feel bad. In a way we should be feeling happy for his GO. Let him GO on peace.

    I came back on Friday. I n my family members celebrated mother's day on Sunday. This yr one mother is missing for the celebration... it's my grandma. She went to UK for holiday. So syok until cannot come back for my convo.. -.-' But as long as she enjoy her holiday then fine lar.. hehe

    So then left 2 mothers which is my cousin's mum n my aunt = mum... haha.. I bought her a white gold ring n brought them to Holiday Villa for dinner.. fui yoh.. so generous.. i oso nvr expected so.. haha.. Actually supposed 2 go to this seafood restaurant wan but because my auntie's fren is there n told us the place is kelam kabut cause crowded then we change venue lor. So the pay for the dinner has gone up double. Even tough sakit gigi but everybody is happy lor.

    I'm going 2 collect my gown on 16th May coz that day hong is not working. The fella now like CEO so bz everyday work until at least 8 something. Pity him oso.. but i guess he's learning a lot of things oso. At least the hard work he has contributed worth the value of experience he is going to obtain.

    Now i'm like counting down for my convo.. haha.. coz i'm now so free. See b4 this working when project is going on i'm so bz n now without the project going on i'm like so free.. Ohh ya, another thing that i'm bz with looking for cars.. haha..

    Rest & Relax

    Currently, i'm still working with auntie. My new job will commence on 1st June. Practically, my work is on field based where most of the times i'll be dealing with client's s/w n helping them 2 solve. I hope I will enjoy working out of the office. But of course will be needed 2 go back 2 prepare some documents as well. After all the job time is kinda flexible . At least my boss won't be chasing me every minute. So right now before my own job commencement I want 2 rest n relax maximum. COz even though it's flexible job for me but I forsee the work is going to be very stressful.... haih... nightmare .

    So will see how things go when time comes..
