Singapore.. Here I Come.. Next Time

My brother and I were supposed to be in Singapore starting from last Saturday until next Wednesday. I was a bit upset that I have to cancel the long awaited trip due to Influenza AH1N1 as I have planned out everything since last year. I thought of ignoring the pandemic and go ahead with the plan but I left undecided when something weird happened one day before I wanted to renew my passport. It was Friday night after I got back from work and went to a nearby photo studio to take picture hoping I could save some times on the next day. I bet none of you including myself is in a situation where the photographer keeps on taking your shot just because you weren't look good enough in the photo. It happens to me that the lady who took my photo keeps on looking into the digital camera where she initially took two shot of me. She said the shot that she took wasn't good enough and her heart feels heavy if she were to develop the photo for me. She then took another shot of me for a few rounds before she handed over to another lady and lastly to her boss but the situation was still the same. I felt really weird as if it's an obstacle to continue the trip. I pick one after all.

Back at home, a friend called me up and we had a short conversation about the photo taking incident that I just went through. I was combing my hair in the same time but the comb suddenly broke and it sort of reflecting a bad omen about the whole trip. My friend feels the same too. I called my mom afterward and told her the same story. When I answered her that I was wearing a black shirt when taking photo, she immediately  told me not to proceed as she feels bad about it. I don't know what the whole thing was about but I believe what my heart tells me. So I ended up canceled the trip.

Love Shape Walnut

It was on last Tuesday when colleague 'X' discovers the heart shape walnut as she was cutting the fruit cakes bought for an afternoon teatime party in welcoming our branch new boss. It seriously looks like a heart thought. Talking about this new boss, he's indeed a funny guy and I think everyone seems to enjoy his 'lawyer buruk'. He really knows how to say things. I heard most of the people says that he's a stright guy at work but he really know how to enjoy his life by then. He loves entertainment and he's pretty good at singing. I guess there'll be more activities for us in future since he loves gathering around with his 'anak buah' so much. Well that don't matter to me afterall. As long as I don't have to conduct any dance practise like what I did last time. That's a headache! 

Bob's Haircut

I was sitting in the saloon for five and a half hour just to get this haircut done. I wouldn't have to sit for that long if I had silky straight hair like most females had. I thought of getting a short haircut without perming, straightening or whatsoever because I seriously had enough of those chemicals on my hair every time I do my hair. So I am positive. But after the hair stylish chopped off my curl frizzy hair till neck length and left only with my original hair, he figured that I still have to do straightening in order for my short hair to look nicer. Hence, he suggests I do a bob's haircut. I don't have many options at that time so I just go for it. So here I am with my new haircut and I'm loving it!

Most of the people said that I look like a 17 years old. Hahaha.... 

Side view.

Now that's Bob's!

Michael Jackson (1958-2009)

It was a shocking news to the world of Michael Jackson death on last Friday 26 Jun 09. I thought the phone call I received from my brother was some kind of jokes. He laughs when he told me about it so I didn't expect what he said that morning was real. I reached the office a bit earlier than usual. When I was about to put my handbag in the locker and to make myself a cup of coffee for breakfast, one of the XYZ colleagues started up the topic. I was nervous listening to their conversation and I was eager to know more as I told them that I heard the same thing as well. Just when all of us were busy talking about it, the news of MJ's death appears in TV. At that time, I know it was no longer a joke. MJ has left us forever. It's still hard for me to accept his death but I guess god loves him more. 

I was 'Speechless'.

Michael Jackson has 'Gone Too Soon'.

He 'Heal The World ' with his music,

but now he's a 'History'.

MJ will always remain in my heart. 

Paint With The Cruve

A modern aborigine. 

A guy with a cap on his move.

I recently come up with a new idea to do more art during office hour. What I did was that I place those yellow magnetic thingy randomly on the white board and let those who are interested draw the art out of themselves. I was quite surprise that one of my colleague could draw one out so quickly as if he has so many picture inside him. We previously have done a few drawing using PAINT in windows and it has become my favorite thing to do every day. 

My Dandelion

As I stood infront of the whiteboard.

My hand started to draw. 

I started drawing some lines along those yellow round magnetic thingy.

I don't know what will those lines comes up with.

But it does look like leaves and grasses to me. 

I then draw a circle and complete it with the 'Dandelion Snow'.

The catepillar? - Not me. 

 

D'Jeff Corner

This BBQ lamb selling at RM 13 Nett is D'Jeff Corner Saturday and Sunday special.  D'Jeff corner is located at the first junction from the traffic light heading to Hilltop if you are from Bukit Padang. The whole dish consists of potato chips, mix vegetable salad, toast bread and the BBQ lamb. Other then BBQ lamb, they also served all kind of chops like fish and chips, lamb chop, mix chop, and one of the menu that caught most of my attention was the OX tail. I suppose to have that in the Hut last week. *signed* The overall taste of the BBQ lamb was just Okie. I don't taste any specialty compare when dining out at Jungle. Maybe Mimi and I should try of something else next time. Anyway, Mimi and I went to the cinema afterwards and watched Hannah Montana The Movie. It was a great and I Love the movie OST.

Me Vs. The Lid

The lid that I was wearing in the photo was a souvenir from colleague 'M' that just came back from Indonesia. Aside from the Chinese, every Muslim colleague was asked to pick one and I happened to pick on the grey color. When I showed this photo to my mom, she said I look like those Muslim lady in China. Hahaha... I guess so...

Turning Down an Opportunity

I believe I could have a better next time. Just after I decided not to think anymore about the new job offer, I received a call from the palace of justice on Wednesday. The lady asks if I were to report on duty on next Monday. I didn't give her any answers but proceed with the same question that I enquired another lady who called me last week. She puts another lady on call. The information and details that I obtained from her are quite different from what I initially received. One of the most important questions I asked was if I'm allowed to turn down the offer after they reveal my posting. I was initially told that I could do so and that lady even confirmed it twice. But the other lady says a different thing where she advises me not to take up the offer if I am not ready to be posted anywhere in the country because once I report on duty that means I am bound with the court terms and condition where I might be getting disciplinary action if I turned down the offer afterwards. I was so relief that I did not work it out from the first place, I don't know, my heart just say no, even I have asked permission from my boss to allow me to go. The funny thing was when I recalled what my small boss did to me because if it's not him then maybe I had bought my air ticket and everything then come back with a mess. One thing that I realize was that I should learn to decide for myself better from now on.
