merdeka and what nots

Independance day celebration is around the corner. I have been having a free view of the 3 days full dressed rehearsal with helicopters and etc. It was indeed a good one because its a once a year affair and we get to watch it from the view of the 12th floor. Everthing is loud and clear, from the announcement to the music to the formation on the field, fighter jet planes to army tanks..i bet you those watching from ground level cant see the formation well. Oh well, working here we will have the privilleage to see this every year if the celebration is being held in KL.

A friend of mine sms me this morning asking me what it means if he had a dream where his nose hair is down till his chin. That sms manage to put a silly grin on my face... it was freaking hilarious at 9am.

Was talking to my friend and he randomly said that he wants to go down to Malacca on thursday night. I might go along if they call me. Why would I do that? cuz its damn random :P

Some random thing happen during meeting the other day. A phrase pop up "chicken fly, monkey die" What's that I found myself asking the person next to me..she replied saying it might be bird flu.

I think i need to go shopping for a cheongsam because I dont have one and I need one for the company's annual dinner. Fuzzy had it all plan on what colour, the length and to the design that i should buy.

Anyway, fuzzy's been out of town near to a month already. Another weekend without him but should suit me just fine i suppose as I have so many drama to catch up on.

Alright gtg, tata you all...happy merdeka malaysia...its your 50th anniversary :)

weekly updates

A week has gone by just in a blink of an eye. Now is the start of a new week with so much work to catch up and time flies like a concorde jet plane (although now there is no more concorde). Meeting eats up my time, I'm left with after 7pm to catch up on whatever work and email I must reply. Its so sick in the working world. I use to laugh at how my ex room mate was a workaholic, at how my close friends in taylors while doing her internship claims she forgot to eat her lunch because she is too caught up with her work and here I am, doing exactly the same thing as what i vow not to do... haahha..the irony of life, it comes and bite you in the ass when you least expects it.

This week we will all work 4 days a week. But of course exception comes in a different form like annual leave applied so you will work lesser days in the week. Ahhh...what a bliss but of course I can't subject myself to this kind of annual leave application. The guilt that eats away because I leave my SG counterparts to do my share of the project work. With UAT payment workflow testing and another environment for conversion testing, too much work needs to be done. I want to go for a holiday ...arrrggghhhh...........

surprise

I've got Fuzzy a surprise. But he's away for this coming 5 days till next monday. Not too sure whether he will like it or not. Whatever it is, I hope he does, or I'll give him a knock on his head :)

Poor Fuzzy lost his wallet... and to rub salt to his wound, manchester united only had a draw for that game that night.

Ramblings

I feel like i have no time for myself. I want to finish reading the Harry Porter book, I want to finish watching the korean drama, I want to finish watching "House MD", I want to have more time to sleep. Sigh, life is so boring. I can't wait to go for course next week. At least I know I wont have to worry about the project for two days. Looking at things, I bet you my boss will tell me to get a replacement for that course. The project is a pain in the ass. Looking at things, the cut over live date will be moved again and our KPI will be affected.

Its friday already and I cant wait for tomorrow sleep in time. I hope they don't run EOD this weekend or not I have to come back to work on sunday all because of timeline thats a moving target. Everyday I look forward for lunch time. Yes, its getting me fat and I have to loose this weight soon or not I'll balloon like a fried sausage. Liquid diet should do the trick.

I've finally got a semi permanent work station at the office. Its located on another floor. But then again at least I won't have to be a nomad, walking around with the laptop finding for a place to sit.

Fuzzy's doing events this holiday and lately he have no time for me. I'm suppose to plan tomorrow's activity. Probably we'll go have dinner somewhere.

My blog is pretty boring lately. It seems like Uncle took down his website already. Its been such a long time since i talked to him online. I suppose this is what working life does to people. But then again we should not take friends for granted.

Life..

Work less than 5 months and I'm expected to come to work during the weekends. Somehow, that reality sucks. I know people tells me its good to be involved in projects. Yes, I whine and groan but then I know its also good to be doing projects although the working hours sucks big time. Feels like in 12 hours a day for work is not enough. Its either I'm not good at time management or I just have too much things to do. Conversion is coming up thus i can't really promise fuzzy a holiday. I don't check my web based email as often as last time. Maybe once in two weeks. Everyone been telling me I should have a break during lunch thus I've been going out for lunch this month instead of eating in front of the laptop.

My 2 year anniversary is coming up and Sat thinks thats a very long period. To me, time flies so fast. Fuzzy's birthday is coming up too and I've got to think of what to get him. Thought of the latest ManU jersey but then the design sucks big time. A stripe right at the bottom of their jersey like indicating that's where the butt is.

Fuzzy asked me why I don't deem his needs important. I don't want to watch die hard 4 with him when he wanted to see it, I groan when we he insist he wants to watch community shield, he said that I don't like his friends and will gripe if he want's to spend time with them. I'm selfish I know.. I should learn to put his needs up first at times. I guess the lesser time we get to see each other has turn its ugly side of things.

Sat's gotten his new car. Next question on the list from my friends is when I'm getting a new car. Hmm.. parking, toll and petrol to work will cost me a bomb. I can't afford to get a car now, maybe later. But then again, if I do get a car I won't drive to work so what's the logic to getting one? With maintenance and a loan to service, it will blow a big hole in my already empty pocket. Maybe I should wait till one and half years time :)

Jon's got a job already. Down the LRT line from my office. Not too sure if that's the job he wanted but then again, its a good start. They are having some issues, I think its totally due to succumbing to work pressure. She will have to learn to take things easier and not let anger rule while you on the other hand should learn to take it cooly. Talk if you must so that you should not keep suppressed anger or some sort.
