A tribute to our beloved Quahci

The news came so unexpectedly... I just couldn't believe it when I first got the news... Quahci... she is always so cheerful and full of laughter.. she will always starts a conversation with her famous phrases "you know ar, ......" she is so strong and confident all the time.. why of all people it has to be her...

Tears were flowing since I knew about it... manage to see her and pay tribute to her before she was placed in her final resting place... pray that her soul will rest in peace..

To her husband and baby gal, be strong ya!

To everyone else, take time to care and appreciate people around you...

welcome back...... after a year long break!!!

Out of a sudden there's an urge to write something. So many things happened throughout the whole year (of course silly.. I'm living every day of it right!!!#$*%&^#).

It's christmas eve and yet something is missing. Somehow, the feeling of christmas has not really sink in yet. Usually by this time of the year, I would be counting down till the Big Day but now I'm still stuck in my office feeling miserable. Maybe is the lack of shopping which I usually enjoyed at this time of the year :) Or maybe......... ????

No christmas eve dinner with Karl as we usually have annually. Abit let down. I guess need to accept the fact that he is not good at planning and surprises :(

Well, hope that the spirit of christmas will lift my spirit up..

=.=

Hey guys.. currently going through midlife crisis =.=, been wanting to blog for quite sometime but lack of time and determination :) .. the distraction is always too great to resist thanks to esy's new map..

Here Wii come!!!

This seems crazy but I'd been waiting for this Wii for almost a year already :) Got it last saturday and been playing with it for the whole weekend muakakaka.. Now my arm and body is aching due to lack of exercise..

Looi: Don't worry, I'll still DoTA with you guys during "normal" hours hehehehe...

Last week of holidays before the semester starts and I have to fall sick at this time.. sob sob.. Must be the environment in Low Yat and Sungai Wang that causes this sore throat and flu like thingy :( Went there last saturday to survey the Wii but we ended up buying in PJ hehehe..

Anyway, I'd planned for shopping this week.. hopefully it work out.. really need to buy more clothes liao hehehehe...

Go Green!!!!

I'm sure you would have notice some new stuff in my blog... hehehe.. yup some WWF banner :) I'd been trying to promote the "Go Green" concept nowadays but it seems that not many people are actually interested.. Firstly, I noticed this concept being applied by standard chartered bank with their e-saver account.. An online banking saving account.. Then I went shopping in Ikea and I'd been told that soon Ikea will no longer provide us more plastic bags therefore we are required to buy our own shopping bag... This practice can also be seen in Jusco and Tesco too.. And now with our petrol price increased about 40%.. I really think more can be done...

I'd been trying to cut down some unneccessary paper work in work place.. but I don't think it's enough.. Although I'm not an IT person but I do believe that there's a lot more that can be done through proper channel instead of the conventional way.. After watching the movie "Just Follow Law' (it's hillarious though).. I must admit that the movie really reflects the actual situation in most work place.. Filling up forms for request.. Printing or photocopying just to show proof or to protect one's a**... Imagine all the trees being chopped down just for those crappy stuff.. I'm kinda relief that nowadays, most of the meetings' minutes were actually distributed through e-mail.. atleast, after reading it, I got one less stack of unwanted papers to be shred..

Awareness is important! Most people tend to choose to be ignorant.. If you ever notice, Ikano is one of the shopping complexes in town which actually provide three different bins for recycling purposes.. And if you ever notice again... most of the rubbish does not follow the bins where it's suppose to be.. I just can't believe that there are so many illiterate people around.. Just hang out for awhile and you will be surprise with the stuff you can observe around you.. Senario 1 (from one of my observations), a child walk to the bins staring at the pictures on the bins while holding a paper cup, the adult (i presumed it's the mum), walk to the child and scolded the child, "What took you so long?' and the child answered, 'I don't know which one to throw.' And the adult,'Aiya, any one will do! Quick! Lets go now!'................. I was left totally speechless.....

The first time our government started the recycling awareness programme was in 1993... Then few years ago (year 2000), the Housing and Local Government Ministry launched the National Recycling Campaign.. a website was created.. www.kitarsemula.com (not updated since 2001).... but it just died off..No follow up.. No enforcement.. Nothing.. there goes all the budget for the whole 3R programme which i think cost millions..down the drain... If other country like Germany can actually implement it.. Why can't we do it? Well, we can always start from our very own home as I believe, we must start from somewhere and somehow... So why not here and now?

Songkran!!!!! and etc.....

Phew.... It's fast... 1 year ago, me, kong and chris went to phavz place for the songkran celebration and it was soooooooooo much fun... hehehe...


And last weekend, me and karl, esy and ms. ong, mok and phavz stretched ourselves all out for songkran again.. this time, more food were served.. muakakaka... thanks to phavz's mum and aunt and grandma for the great food being served throughout the whole trip.... thanks to phavz dad for the hospitality :) and of course thanks to phavz for sharing this special occasion with us... can't wait for the fruits season though.. hehehehe


Oh ya... last saturday, I did something quite drastic to myself.. I went to a hair saloon near metro prima kepong and guess what, I cut my hair short!! The last time i had short hair was during my form 6 if i'm not mistaken. Just for a change i guess. I don't know what prompted me to go for it as for those who'd known me, I usually won't do something like that. I hate changes. Somehow, for the past few weeks, I seems to want changes. Sometimes i do wonder, am i going through the next phase in life? I know it sounds weird... and i'm not sick or dying soon... I guess it will sort out by itself...

Before i end my blog, i would like to wish slerk good luck for his coming viva... he'd waited for so long... will treat him once his ordeal is over.. hehehehe.. remember who pushed you to finished you thesis?? muakakakakaka....

adios...

Gals' night out...

Yesterday night I had dinner with Phavz and Malar..... Karl was havin a function and thanks to Phavz!!!! Before dinner, me and Phavzwent for our spa session at Tru Spa... we did a body polish and hydrobath... At first it's kinda weird coz we chose the VIP room where both of us will have our treatment together... so imagine... muakakakaka... but someehow the shyness flew away and we just enjoy ourselves being pampered... hehehe.. after the refreshing spa, we went back to office to have a game and I think we played better than the guys!!!! muakakakaka...

Later we forced Malar to join us for dinner and i brought them to the Thai restaurant, My Elephant.. hehehe kinda addicted to the restaurant... We ordered a bowl of tom yum, chcken pad grapow, thai fish cakes and a stir fried mixed vege served with healthy brown rice and the refreshing pandan cooler... the food were too yummy ... we practically sapu everything... hehehehe... it's a nice place with comfortable and nice environment, cute waiters and delicious food... the price?... i think it's quite resasonable.. the total bill was RM50... I was too excited yesterday and guess what... i forgot to take photos of the food... hehehe.. maybe next time ya!

My daughter Koko....

Isn't she look adorable.... hehehehe... She is 11 weeks old now... At the moment, she still can't leave the house yet until she got her third jab.. which is due next weekend...

Trying out to post some photos... sorry ar.. just realise the sequence abit out... hehehhehe

food, food and food........

Sorry Slerk and Chris... I know I'd let you guys down.. So I've decided to conclude all my monthly entries in here :)

First of all, I think I'll go straight to year 2008.. during cny, me and karl's family went to Hanoi (no pics as usual).. well, it was quite an experience as most of the time when we go for vacation we usually opt for places like Hong Kong, Singapore or some other developed countries and after those trips you will compare how efficient those countries are.. or how clean and civilized the citizen over there.. or how organized their goverment.. compared to ours(I totally agree though :) hehe).. but after going to Hanoi.. I'm actually felt so thankful and blessed that I'm from Malaysia :) I'm not saying Hanoi is bad but is just that they are not as develope as us.. you can see the people there are quite poor but of course there are rich people as well... but majority of them are so poor.. Other than that, the food there are quite simple.. Those we had here like vietnam kitchen.. I think it's considered as 5* luxury hotel standard food compared to the actual food there.. hehehe as usual food is my priority... scenary at Halong Bay was superb! But if you were to drive in Vietnam.. be prepare!!! The most important gadget is the honk.. everybody just honk at everybody and anything.. So you can actually imagine the livelihood of the city.. hehehe Anyone adventures should visit Hanoi.. it's worth it.. I learn to appreciate the things I have more.. kekekeke

My close friend WeeWee left to Sydney last month.. I was kinda sad coz she will be going there permanantly and I don't get to see her before she left.. :( She is one of my close friends since form 6 and thanks to her (for forcing me to do my homework and go for tuition classes) I'm now doing what I'm doing now.. sometimes, we tend to overlook many things and when they are not around, then you will starts to regret and keep questioning yourself "why didn't I....." when you know that it's too late.. As you grow older, the number of commitments tends to increase as well..Excuses like "I'm too busy", or "Maybe next time", or "I'm tired because of workload/OT" becomes a norm just to get away from invites... Anyway..don't wanna dwell on it anymore..

Come back to the happy stuff... :) Last week were good food week!! Hehehe.. In the last few days i'd been eating so much good food with my family and friends. Last thursday, we(liz, slerk and W) went to the curve and we ate at a german restaurant. We had a plate of delicious roast pork knuckles and a plate of sausages :) The place is abit pricy though and luckily we don't have to pay muakakakaka.. The next day, my ex-students treated me lunch for my birthday.. It's a very nice place in Section 17, Happy Mansion serving Thai food. And the name of the restaurant is kinda cute too.. it's called "My Elephant".. The food there were delicious and quite spicy and the presentation of the food is nice.. :)

For saturday dinner, we(with my family) had dinner at Shogun 1 utama. Mum always wanted to have buffet so since her birthday soon so decided to treat her :) They actually increased the price already(or i'm not up to date).. As i remembered, the last time i had Shogun, it was rm48++ per pax and now they are charging rm55++.. but the food quality is much better compared to the last time i had it.. Karl prefers Shogun than Jogoya as in Shogun more choices of sushi.. anyway, everyone enjoyed the dinner especially Nick!! He took 5 bowl of soba!! Sunday, me an karl went to ikea to get some stuff and we had lunch at dragon-i with Sbee, Hkuen and baby Nat.. Somehow, i still prefer to order their fried rice compared to their noodles.. but overall, it's quite okay but i think the one in mid-valley is better in terms of taste.. or the restaurant located below dragon-i in the curve also not bad.. hehehe.. Dinner on sunday, me and karl went to our favourite restaurant that serves crab.. they have the freshest crab in town at resonable price.. We ordered 2 crabs and a plate of singapore fried bee hoon.. and for those food lovers out there.. it's worth it to travel all the way there..(it's located in Sg. Buloh, Bukit Rahman Putra).. The flesh of the crab will just slides out easily and you can still taste the freshness of the crab.. :)

Monday, me, liz and mc went to food foundry, section 17 to have lunch.. the original plan was to bring them to "My Elephant" but it was closed, so we proceed to food foundry.. i had fish and chips while liz took a cabonara pasta and mc ordered their nasi lemak.. On tuesday.. the gang(liz, phavz, mc, slerk, mok and esy) gang up to give me and aeroplane a surprise lunch party.. and a surprise guest.. Kong joined too.. she came back from singapore.. the lunch was superb and the cake(thanks to liz) was so special.. Thanks alot guys! really enjoyed it very much(but i think aeroplane enjoyed it even much more!!! muakakaka).. wonder how much weight i'd gain just for these few days.. so i had decided that next week, i will try to skip dinner hehehehe(hopefully i have the dicipline to do it)..

Oh ya.. i have a new member in my family now.. so it will be karl, me and baby koko(10 weeks now).. We had her last sunday.. got it from ikano.. at the moment she is quite adorable at times but kinda noisy when being left alone.. hehehe so now we are kinda in a dilemma when it comes to sleeping time.. we left her in the hall but she cried the whole night.. any experts aroud to advise? Gary told me he put his in his bedroom but my koko can't sleep in air-cond room yet.. hmm.. guess we will have more sleepless nights to come.. hope my neighbours won't complain.. she's just a baby.. Anyway, if i can't even take care of her, then it will only be me and karl in future.. :)

adios! busy day ahead... happy reading..

p/s by the way, how come i can't find the upload photos icon? i wanted to upload some photos but couldn't find.. hehehe sorry...

I'm Back.. kinda.. :)

Wow.. I didn't realise that I stop so long ago.. hehehe.. My last post was for the merdeka celebration and now 2 months had past already.. hhhmmm... time really flies..

Well, to begin with, let me see.. in the month of September.. yup.. I got married the traditional way.. one of the reasons why I stop writing (hehehe).. It was a tiring event but somehow it's fun in a way.. everyone that I met recently keep asking me the same question.. "So... How's married life ar?" Well... sometimes I really do wonder do they really wanna know or it's just a formality? Or maybe they were actually asking for more juicy information? :) I really dunno what to answer but as usual I will come out with something pathetic.. ehehe.. Seriously, other than having someone sleeping next to you, doing extra house chores... I mean MORE house chores.. hmm.. what else? But somehow, doing it for the person you love is different (although I'm still complaining..hehehe) Now going into the third month... somehow the perspective seems to change gradually.. I wouldn't say negatively or positively.. but somehow you'll see things you don't see before getting married.. hehehe Well.. Long Live the Queen! (I know... It got nothing to do with anything.. hehehe)

Having said that, classes had started and as usual in October.. lot's of preparation to do.. have to recall lots of stuffs which I'd taught last year.. hehehe.. not too bad.. but due to lots' of changes revolving around.. kinda messy at the moment (I know it's not very clear.. but I'm too lazy to elaborate.. hehehe)

Oh ya.. Chris called.. kinda miss him ar.. hey, I'm planning to send him a few packets of instant noodles to him.. but Chris: do reply to let me know whether you can cook instant noodles or not ya! He is still the same.. voice same.. shape dunno.. but I don't think he can grow much anymore but side ways maybe... :) Hope you get the offer you wanted badly ya..

I'm going off to Phuket tomorrow with my hubby.. This will be my first time going to Thailand I guess.. although my mum told me we went to hadyai when I was 3 years old.. hehehe totally no idea at all.. really can't wait for it.. first time me and hubby going overseas vacation just the 2 of us.. hehehe.. I hope the Pain will go off so that I can enjoy my holidays!!!!! hehehe.. And I bought the T just for this trip.. dunno whether I will have the guts to use it or not... muakakakaka

To all my Indian frens... Happy Deepavali !!!!!!

Can we hold our heads up or down?

The first phase (2004-2008) of the Malaysian Institute of Integrity’s National Integrity Plan is coming to a close. Have we little to learn or is Malaysian culture at cross-purposes with the NIP? (The Star, Wed 29/08/07)

Got this from today's paper.. It's so timely as I was actually debating regarding this issue on integrity in work place just last night. Something happened (p&c) and I just can't accept the fact that this is the culture of our society at this age. Filled with anger but mostly disappointment with the system, I kept questioning myself: 'Is this what I can accept or should I just take a step forward and leave'. But as I discussed this matter with Karl, he did mention that maybe I should have a broader mind.. Look further.. as in the interest of the organization.. But does that mean that I have to forsake my own pride and dignity? Of course it is not as serious as it sounds :) And I wouldn't claim myself as a person with high integrity; But there's always a limit to everything.. For me, everything has to straightforward and transparent. What'd been said must be implemented. But the system here seems to have too many loopholes where all the culprits were freed but us who uphold it were at the losing end.. or shall I rephrase it.. we became the laughing stock.. Well, I will still hold on to what I believe it's right regardless the outcome.. Atleast I can tell myself that I'd tried my best to implement it :)

Still on the same topic,

And it’s common sense that if you want the populace to be more honest and show integrity in their dealings, representatives of the public and private sectors and MPs or assemblymen must show these qualities themselves.

Port Klang assemblyman Zakaria Md Deros lost the satay restaurant he built illegally on state land but was allowed to keep his four-storey mansion built without council approval.

What message are we sending if politicians can break laws with impunity and get off lightly? (The Star, Wed 29/08/07)

I think by next month we can see whether the NIP run by MII actually works, just observe the number of roadblocks, speedtraps and also enforcement officers at work. One will wonder the sudden increase in number and one should also be able to feel safe by the security provided by our beloved enforcement officers. 'Kudos' to them. No more illegal activities. You will even be surprise that Malaysian drivers whom are famous for their skills in cutting queues and overtaking will actually start behaving themselves. No more beating the red lights. Ever wonder why?? :)

But I really do appreciate what MII has been trying to do. I don't know whether it's an upfront thing or just for showcase, but somehow, something need to be done. It had to be implemented or corrected from the roots itself. As a concern citizen, I will do my best upholding my principles and I believe many others who actually do that too. We can't change the whole world but we can change within our own circle. And I believe Malaysia Boleh! We are already independant for 50 years.. And there's a very long and winding ahead of us.. To talk about this issue will be another never ending story.. therefore we can only pray for the best!

Yummy Week!

Last week's makan makan expedition!! (chris..I know what you gonna say #%$$%#@)

Last Wednesday, we had steamboat buffet to celebrate the merdeka babies and of course to celebrate our country's merdeka day as well.. The food was yummy! We went to Yuen's Steamboat and surprisingly, after so long, the taste and varieties of food seems to be better. And of course the chicken wings is still the hot pick or shall I say the highlight of the whole dinner :) Thanks to slerk, mc and lsy we manage to grab a few rounds before we finally quit kekekeke..

Saturday(18/08) - It was mc's bday and we had a surprise bday party for him at redbox. I dunno whether we manage to keep the event a surprise or not but somehow.. who cares.. kekeke we actually celebrated mc and phavz and karl's bday with the same cake.. (haven't gotten the photos yet!) As usual, Aeroplane was holding onto the mic for the first one hour coz they were late.. Luckily they arrived and we manage to grab a few songs.. kekeke After that we proceed to 'The Apartment' for desserts.. Strawberry peach pavlova and Strawberry with mint cream.. can't really remember the exact names.. again.. superb! (at that moment, I did worry about my waistline though.. have to fit the gown.. kekeke)

Sunday(19/08) - Karl's bday.. me and Karl decided to treat our 4 other close frens for dinner at izzi.. First time there although been told by slerk n months ago.. kekeke.. Indeed a very nice place to go.. And the good news is, they are opening a new branch in Damansara Uptown! much nearer compared to Bukit Bintang.. The food was superb and I can say that the pasta there is better than Italiannis (somehow their food seems to lost their flavour compared to when it started operation).. And of course the price is so much cheaper becoz of the 50% discount.. We ordered 2 reg pizzas, 2 pastas, 1 lasagne, 1 baked potatoes, 1 plate chicken wings plus 6 drinks for only approximately rm100.. kekeke.. I guess it's not too bad.. will be going again next month but will try the damansara uptown outlet.. kekeke

Well, that's all for now.. This week will be the dieting week.. left 3 more weeks to go before the big day.. counting down every single day.. till then!

Team building.... :)

This month, Leesa started with a new theme.. "Team Building" :) Leesa, Slerk, MC, Phav, Lsy and I are super committed into this team building stuff.. I was abit sceptical about this at first as this is not my cup of tea.. But somehow, I got the first taste of it and wah la! I'm kinda addicted to it now.. kekeke.. It seems like back in the older days, in our old office where we used to hang out after office hours.. even Slerk don't rush back home anymore! muakakakaka..

I'm back!

FINALLY......... After a break of approx. 2 months.. I'm back!! Many stuffs had come and gone.. but as usual life goes on and on and on and on......

First highlight: The Departure of a dear fren :(
Exactly one month ago, Chris left us for UK...Life without him seems to be empty and lifeless.. sob sob.. But on the other hand, he did miss out alot of fun stuff which happens here..muakakaka

Chris: The fruits were delicious.. yummy! Too bad you were not around to enjoy it.. And we got invited for next year too.. Again.. too bad you will not be around to enjoy it.. But don't worry, we will always finished up your part for you since you can't have it.. :)

Second highlight: Semester starts
Well, this semester I got to teach the new Bio students.. Totally unexpected! :) Anyway, currently we are in week 7 which is half of the semester.. A total bunch of monkeys......... :)

Third highlight: The shredder
Here comes the nightmare of the month! We did the unthinkable. We shred approx. 200 black plastic bags of paper!! unbelievable? Believe it, in Ripley's Believe it or not! muakaskakaka.. Kinda gone nuts after this..

Fourth highlight: The fruits season!(the best of all.. again.. sorry chris)
Last weekend, we(me, karl, leesa, mc, slerk, phaveena, phaveena's sis and jan) went back to phaveena's kampung in kedah. It was a superb and fruitful trip! with loads of durians and rambutans and mangosteens!!!!! yummy!! and the best part of it is, we got it straight from the trees... kekekeke.. And I had my first piece of durian(although it's a tiny piece) and my first raw petai there.. totally unbelievable.. And leesa finally got the taste of slerk's lameness during the whole journey.. wish you were here chris.. :( ( we did sms you there, it shows that we did think about you) kekekeke... Anyway.. looking forward for next year songkran and fruits' season again!!

Will try to post the photos once I get hold of it!

Terengganu to ease polygamy rules...

KUALA TERENGGANU: The Terengganu state government intends to relax its rules on polygamy to make it easier for men to have more than one wife, citing the high number of single mothers and unwed lasses.

Those who now intend to take a new wife are no longer required to seek the green light from their current spouses. (extracted from The Star 11/05/2007)

Will this help???? If there are more single dads and unwed guys, will they allow women to have more than one husband???

Hypocrites....

After reading chris's post.. I couldn't agree more with what he'd posted regarding stereotypes of a female role (well, I dunno he sides the gals but not too bad though).. People still have this thinking that gals must know how to cook, or gals must have babies, or gals loves shopping (i know it sounds childish but still......).. And when I mention that I'm into F1 and watch football to one of my coll., he gave me this funny look.. :) Well, not all gals loves only shopping, shopping and shopping! Anyway, just to put the record straight, I'm not fighting for female rights or equality stuffs.. (hence the title hypocrites).. I only want gals to be respected for who they are.. Somehow, some people seems to forget that female are human too.. There's been alot of issues which had been publish openly in the paper where gals were raped becoz they dress inappropriately.. Why not educate the men the meaning of respect? Why put all the blame on the victims? There's always expectations from gals.. **but we gals too have expectation from guys** So I guess we need to remove all those stigma before we can move forward...

Have you ever been let down before? especially by someone closest to you? When you are not at the receiving end, you usually won't feel the pain that cuts through the heart.. But come to think about it, maybe you yourself did the same thing before without realising it? AT this moment, it wasn't the pain that is matter but the bitter disappointment felt deep down inside.. Surprisingly, there's no anger.. I think it's not a good sign as it shows that the heart has already accepted it.. Sometimes I really wonder, why would God created human with such fragile heart.. A heart which filled with turmoil emotions.. Quoted from a fren " Life is actually a form of suffering".. How true this phrase is........

crazzieeee...

Last friday, we (me, chris and slerk) did the craziest things... Chris drove us in his SLK to Ijok just to find out the condition there.. As you know, they are having a by-election there.. None of us actually knows where Ijok is.. Slerk did a good job by googling it.. Anyway, with our not too bad sense of direction( or should I put it, with my good sense of direction) we somehow manage to get there in one piece.. Even before reaching Ijok town, we can actually feel the tension between the two parties.. As we move closer, more banners and flags were strung along the road.. You can see war of words around (some were kinda childish though).. We found a place for dinner.. Before this place we actually stopped over in another restaurant but it seems that they are not doing business because BN is treating the people over there.. We tried to get some free satays but those aunties there are so much faster than us.. Therefore we decided to look for another place for food..The food in the restaurant was delicious and quite affordable and it seems that we just found the right place.. So happen that the front of the restaurant was where the opposition party giving their speeches.. We manage to join the crowd there and got a close view at some big shots which we only get to see on tv.. :) A very fruitful outing indeed.. Too bad none of us got a camera.. Slerk did try to catch some pictures using his pda but the night scene were not too good.. It was a tremendous experience anyway..

After a hectic week, finally my immune system just crashed.. I'm having a very sickly weekend.. sob sob.. and the worst part is, I have to spend my whole sunday alone and sick.. :( so sad.. Well, hopefully by tomorrow I'll be better.. Got to work!@#$%#@ Anyway, I'll for sure be looking forward for the coming 2 days of public holidays!! Haven't plan what to do yet but my plans usually don't materialise though.. So I'll prefer to follow where the wind blows.. Anyway, we shall see.....
