...whats my plan...

...interviewed one guy. apparently very experience. older than me. he jumped many companies. he knows many stuff. loon says his technical passed. his attitude, ok lor. quiet. kenot speak out. soft. like those who kenot talk. bm got p8. english poor. aiks. i comment so much. but one thing hor, he stinks man. yukes. he is like those kampung boy who just came out to work and dress also very kampung kampung one. wakakakz...so bad judge people like tht...but anyway, i pass this guy for ah loon since his position is more critical than mine. is my task critical? i oso dunno cos didn plan.

and that makes me wonder, what are my outstanding task? hmm, i can ask wern tien that, if next week i give him one new staff to do what he is doing now so that i can transfer him to another task, so i ask him, can u brief him what to do or not. he said, kenot. then i mar say, u need to know what you have in hand and u have to know the overall plan so that you can easily pass the job over. but hor, i myself sendiri also dunno what are my outstanding task. macam mana nak plan? oh my gawd!...

...hectic day...

...it has been really hectic...

i was away from the office for the whole of last week. was in pedas, malacca, sagil and batu pahat for system implementation at my customers site. it was nice to have a change in the routine life, at least u get to see different things. many things happened last week. the last time i had a change in the routine was last year when i went to chiang mai for a project.

watched harry potter on a tuesday afternoon; a 3.35pm show. wakakakz. why cos customer in malacca not in; but appointment already made. so, nothing to do lor. free. took many pictures during the whole trip. know colleagues better. some have really nasty habits u know. watched apprentice season 4; 5 episodes at nite (wow, i have not watched so many shows before in a working week). caught some singapore shows in batu pahat. throughout the whole week, if can get internet, it will be like on cloud nine. imagine 1 week no yahoo messenger or msn. my gawd, so free!

then, back to office on monday, meeting whole morning. afternoon rushed down to putrajaya for meeting; kena screwed. tuesday, went to putrajaya again. no breakfast, no lunch, no dinner. was there to paste some stickers over the wrongly printed documents.sei mei...got 400+ documents to stick! then at nite found out alot of problem for incovar, which is gonna be next week. and really sei mei...and today, wed, back to office.

...shereen's wedding...

...just came back from shereen's wedding. she was an ex-colleague, coincidently she is also mitra chong's niece. (i attended mitra chong's training).

well, it was catching up with ex-colleagues again. anyway, here are some nice shots during the wedding dinner...

...a courageous fren...

...suddenly i was thinking of this friend and thus i shot an email to him. i know him from incovar and since then, he has been a very close fren. lost touch with him for quite some time di.

we met in one of the incovar camps and we instantly clique so well. after the camp, we became close frens. he visits me in upm and we met up with each other to chat about stuff, etc. he was 2nd year student in tarc doing computer science. i was in 3rd year upm doing electronic computer engineering.

one day he came and find me and told me he wants to quit from tarc and asked me what i think. he hated computer science and his parents wanted him to do that course. yea, same as many other people. but this friend, i really salute him. i talked and talked to him and finally he have decided to drop everything in tarc and wanted to do something else. we talked about it and found out he is interested in sports. i helped him enrolled in upm doing sports and recreational studies. his parents was against it of course, but he persisted. i took him round upm, looking for the dean, waiting outside the deans office, ask his help, talk to dean, etc to consider his application.

yeap, finally when he got his confirmation letter, he was overjoyed. instantly he calld me and told me the good news. yeap, finally he got what he wanted to do. though needs another like few more years to graduate, it doesnt matter to him. he got what he wanted. and i think he is the most courageous fren i know of then. i am of course happy for him. but when he joined upm, i left upm - i graduated di.

we continued to keep in touch, i passed him my notes, those relevants ones, etc. we were close. years passed, he graduated and found some odd jobs here and there before landing himself with the olympic council. i was like, wow, this fren of mine is gengz.

so, today i mailed him and find out how he was. and he told me he is currently working in new zealand; still with the olympic council and he loved his job so much. and he has never been happier. his decision to leave tarc has made him who he is today. and i am glad that i was there to walk the path with him.

his name is fong wan hor, and i want to dedicate this page to him for his courageous act that time and for being a wonderful friend all these while. check him out below and the beautiful scenery of new zealand...

...i amsick...

...i am sick today. it sure sucks when you are sick. but then, i remembered what my dear fren alex told me yesterday, always imagine the 2 extremes. and i chose to be enthusiastic over what i am supposed to accomplish and work to the highest standards despite the liquid flowing off my nose. so what i am sick. my mind is not.

i read from a book recently:
"if we perceive something as liability, thats the message we deliver to our brain, then the brain produces states that make it the reality. if we change our frame of reference by looking at the same situation from a different point of view, we can change our representation about anything and in a moment change our states and behaviours."

fact : i am so so so sick
msg : i am feeling happy and full of energy
reality : hahaha, its hard u knw. but, i will still send those msgs to my brain

...slept whole day...

...amazing. i slept the whole day.

the nite before, i was having dinner with a success; he said he wants to buy me dinner (after monday's encounter) with emily rose! we were at kenny rogers having our quarter chicken meal and i gobbled up everything since i did not have breakfast and lunch tht day.

later we went for starbugs, hmm have been frequenting starbugs quite often these days, and with loon's intro to me about the discount card thingy at starbugs, the visit there seems to be more worthwhile. hahaha, 20% discount, better than cc givin 10%!!!

later, vincent called and he joined us at starbugs. after which i send him home to bu. and, this fred called at the right time at the right place, where i was about to drop vincent off. and since tmr is raya, what the heck, we drove all the way down to selayang to find fred for yamchar. fred started to talk about how tiring his work is and how hard he worked and apparently enjoying himself. i was like, ok..ok...and both of them started laughing and cheering. i was half awake. left mamak at abt 2+ and arrived home at 3+am. gawd! next morning. slept whole day.

didnt do anything to the album cover today. will try to churn somehting out later tonite. luckily its holiday, i can change my sleeping patterns! and the good news is, tmr is only friday. i have 3 more days of NO WORK!

wonder how my fish is doin in the office...

...ffk twice in a row...

...kns. kena ffk 2 times by a good fren. yes. dowan to hide feelings. of cuz angry ler. but, this is life. anyway, no point get angry. once we understand whats going on. and see the whole picture. there is nothing to be angry about. but, doh...i am still hurt!...

...some shots from this morning...

...some shots taken this morning...

...i.gemz...imagining hard...

...have been "imagining" the whole day on how to design the inlay for the i.gemz album. its so difficult to imagine how it would look like and how it should be designed. so tough. so much imagining...whole morning have been with daniel lookin out for angles and shots for the inlay. taking pictures like nobody business. our business that is. well, anyway, this is what i choke up with. i feel this design is simple and elegant enuff with a touch of modernisation that i feel will appeal to the current mindset of people...
