oN LeaVe...

Had more activities lined up as compared to my usual on leave=stay in bed till late, charge battery. Well, this leave was more eventful, as this was what happened:

23rd Sept:After work, went straight to Ipoh for Yuki & Michael Wong's wedding. Was raining so heavily on the way down our beloved Genting's hill slope that I almost gave up & ask Dada to stop the car by the side. However, he went on, more cautious than he already was..and continued on..Dinner was OK, however, this is the 1st time that I arrived at a wedding with neither the bride nor the groom available at the reception to welcome us...made us look like a bunch of hungry ghosts who can't wait to go in & attack the food. We were on time, not early...mind u..the invitation says 7PM..however, no one was there to welcome us...what a COLD reception...well,could go on & on about the wedding..however, I'll just shut up & take mental notes on what NOT to do when it's my own Wedding...;) After the wedding, drove straight back to Taiping. Stopped at Tai Hu to watch the MATCH OF THE WEEK: MAN UTD vs CHELSEA. We were both damn tired, but I had to accompany my Dada watch his fav Man Utd in action. Sat beside an elderly couple..well, looks like the wife is accompanying her husband to watch the match as well. I asked Dada, "Would u like it if I would still accompany u to watch EPL matches here when we're that old?" He replied, "Of coz, dear.."(with his eyes fixed on the screen..making sure Giggs completed the pass) He didn't even realise it was a trick question. I shot back "What about the 42-inch plasma TV in our "living room" that u promised? Why wanna watch matches out here when u can enjoy it at the comfort of our own home?" Hmm..speechless..

Lesson: I'm still quick even when I'm damn exhausted. Don't try ur luck with me...

Queuing for Chau Kway Teow

24th Sept:Jalan-jalan cari makan with Dada, Jennie & Douglas in Penang. Hahaha...had heaps of fun, especially the ride to Balik Pulau..have never seen a traffic light in control at a sloppy, narrow road before. It was fun, going to the town area(which reminds me of Tamparuli town back in KK), searching for a shop called "Lam Kong" just for its signature Asam Laksa...which was ok...Next stop, went to a "Lorong Selamat" for a plate of "Chau Kway Teow". It's recommended by a book that Jennie had in hand, map to all the best food in Malaysia. It even had a photo of the stall with the auntie in action, which looks exactly like the pic above. (With the same red chef hat & glasses) U have to queue up to order & get ur food, some found out in a sacarstic way:

Customer A: Auntie, 2 plates chau kway teow, send to the table at the corner.

Auntie: Can, can..queue up first, look at the line behind me.

Customer B: Auntie, this line is for getting the food or ordering? Can I order now?

Auntie: Can, can queue up first & wait for your turn to order.

Super Lan C..I think the uniqueness is that it tastes different as compared to other "Penang Chau Kway Teow" coz she fried it with charcoal instead of gas.

Next, took a break from all the eating to a bit of walking around. To me, it means "shopping" but dada turned it into "window shopping". Didn't buy anything at all...which is really not the real "ME". Then we headed to a place selling "tau sa peng" with 150 years of history. They had a cool "Chinese Dynasty Emperor Chair" which I just can't miss the chance to grab a photo with Jennie.

Jennie & I as Empress & Kwai Fei

Last stop: Gurney Drive. Wow...the water..hardly visible, but the food..incredible. Tried many varieties..which was great...Penang is really a food heaven!! OK...time to lose weight from now on...

25th Sept:There's a fun fair in Taiping town. Dada & I headed there after dinner at Pizza Hut. The fair sorta transformed us back to our childhood days. We played, laughed & screamed like little kids..The luckiest thing that happened to us that night was at the booth for exchanging tokens, someone dropped a RM50 note. Didn't notice it at first, dada saw it first. "Da, someone dropped money, quick,pick it up!" I was still blur blur, was expecting perhaps a few cents, or RM5 note at the most. When I looked down..RM50!!! WOW..I quickly grabbed it. The guy queuing in front of us must have seen it too...as it was practically right beside his boots..but too bad..I got it first!!!

Dada having fun

Then, we went on 1 of those fun rides..the one that turns round & round ,up & down..we got into the act of being little kids again...we screamed & screamed...hahaha...it was so much fun...a great way to release stress as well..Then, with our lucky RM50 note, we bought 3 DVDs, & a bag each to end the day.

Silver Bag = For Her, Light Blue Bag= For Him

PaRiS FaNtaSy

Wow...received some really nice pix of Paris Eiffel Tower..somewhere I would loooove 2 visit..however, always remained in my "dreams" section & never really took the initiative to learn more & earn (SAVE) more $$$ to actually materialize it...

Remember I used to study introductory French in my Hotel Management course..the French lecturer was a nice lady..very "Parisian" in her dressing styles..was able to still maintain her standards & accent even when she has been living in Sydney for quite a few years b4 teaching @ my college.

I remembered how she "forced" us to speak real French French (well according to my then roommate from Melbourne , she said "just sound like u r trying to clear your throat each time u speak & u'll be fine") We had to pronounce each word so clearly & specifically "French way" that it's really tiring..1/2 of the time, we don't even know what we are saying as we normally just learn it by heart...hahaha...

Really enjoyed French class actually..to think that I'm actually learning the worldwide recognised "Language of Love" is really something. However, sad to say, since there's 0 practice after my 2 semesters learning French, I can't remember much..:(

DaDa ProMiseD Me a ShoPPinG SpRee..

The lovely shoes that's a MUST HAVE

Can't wait to get off work...as my dada promised that I can buy whatever I want..he won't interfere, he will say everything looks nice on me, won't bother about the price & let me buy whatever I like!!YiPPeee...

Since I get annoyed easily these days (due for AV soon), he suggested that we stop by at Koong Woh Tong for a cup of "5 FloWeR TeA" each..so nice of him?? Perhaps not really, as he knows that I tend to buy more if I'm moody (we gals call this retail therapy)..so, ensuring that I'm in an OK mood will mean that I'm in a more rational state of mind & NOT buy that much...hmmm...smart..smart...smart guy with an even smarter GIRLFRIEND (ME!!!) who could figure out what he's up to...

BUSY BUSY BUSY..

Have been really busy for the past few days. Luckily had a couple of nice colleagues to fight the war with me..With this I am actually going insane. Need to get off work ASAP to relax for a change. Getting really stressful @ work. Am trying not to let that idiot influence my mood..however, with what happened recently, I don't know what I can do to make this a little bit better...or do I want to at all?? I seem to be very demotivated when I come to work. Whenever I see him, I feel myself boiling inside. Why does he have to be so annoying, irresponsible, irritating, dumb..the list goes on & on & on...

I really can't find anything 2 like in him as someone I need to work with. I just pray & pray & pray really hard that either he OR I leave in very very near future...

ConTinue 2 B on GoD's TabLe

The 2nd half of this happened 2day. I had 2 remain silent & not tell out the whole TRUTH as I had 2 save some idiot's face (who really isn't worth me saving, but sigh..that's life). I had to swallow the whole "Dead Cat" & look unprofessional, dumb, dunno what I'm doing & can't understand instructions from superiors.

The most TL part is that, that idiot had the NERVE to remark "it's not fully her fault, she's just 2 soft in handling the situation". Helloooo....IT WASN'T MY FAULT AT ALL!!!

What can I do? To everyone else, in their opinion, I'm the incapable one, the dumb one..but what they do not know is that..I have already consulted that idiot (my so-called boss) & he confirmed to go ahead..A HUGE DEAD CAT TO BE SWALLOWED BY ME ALONE...Well..so be it, as long as I know the whole truth, God knows & people who know me well, they believe me...That's all I ask for... AMEN!

DaDa's GiFt foR Me

This is what I got from my Dada..who just arrived safely back at my side...love him so much..he's the only one who can make me happy again..the only who can help me up again when I'm down...thanks da..for loving me so much...Muakkksss...love u forever!!

This is really a pleasant surprise for me. Didn't think he'll buy this 4 me. However, his explanation is that he knows I'm upset & he couldn't be by my side at those times, hence this is a little something for his ANGEL (me!) How could I not love this guy??

haPPy eNDinG!!

After work, juz wanted 2 be alone. Hence I took a shower, didn't wanna speak 2 my roommate & left. Came to Coffee Bean, a spot where I know there's 0.01% of meeting ppl from work.

Snugged in a cozy corner, I tried looking 4 frens 2 chat. At the same time, searching for 2 songs in particular. 2 songs that I have been searching for quite a while...and viola! Found them...so so happy! A happy ending to my BAD BAD day..May there be a better tomorrow~~~(My Dada will be back and everything will be OK..he must be packing now eager to come back to me)

ProMoteD to GoD's TaBLe

Can't believe I'm under this kind of ppl. Can't decide what they want, when there is fault..blame it on the lowest ranked one..ME!! An incident 2day happens 2 make me wonder, y the hell am I still here? These ppl won't appreciate what I do, can't decide what they want, changes their mind as quickly as u can say F***, can't lead & help me progress. Why oh why am I still here???

Sometimes, I really can't find a reason y I should continue on here. If it's not coz of my dear DaDa, I would have left long long time ago. I long 4 the day that I can finally leave..or should I?? The problem is not me..y should I leave? Maybe I should start a mission to annoy THEM so much that they leave...(well, forget it, I'll choose to leave)

7th September 2007 - DaDa's BiRthDaY

Last nite's birthday "celebration" for my Dada was OK. It was nice of them to organise this. However, really couldn't force myself 2 smile at all..really very disappointed, at 1 point even broke down & cried. To make matters worse, the 1 culprit that I secretly blame for letting this happen was there.

He even made some stupid comments that made me even more TL. Apologised 2 my Dada 4 not being able to control myself but then...that's juz me being me. Some knew what was going on..wif 1 even voicing it out 4 me. However, what's done is done. Just treat this as a valuable lesson.. to MAKE SURE WE APPLY FOR LEAVE ON BOTH OUR BIRTHDAYS~~

2day seems so dull & boring without my dear by my side, especially when it's his BIRTHDAY. People around me kept mentioning that it's his birthday, why am I @ work? Why is HE @ work? & further more is on duty @ a totally different location??? SiGH~~DON'T REMIND ME!!

DaDa..miss u soooo much~~~~

6th September 2007 ~ DaDa's Birthday Eve

2day, I should be excitedly anticipating my dear's birthday tmr. Being the "role model gf" that I am, should be bz preparing a "surprise" party for him. However, these thoughts have vanished weeks ago the moment I was informed that he has to work elsewhere on his birthday. He has been assigned to work off site on his actual birthday & needs to be there early in the morning on 7th Sept. Which also means no late nite celebration after midnight tonight...

More to come...last nite he was told by colleagues at work to stay back till midnight as his "thoughtful" frens at work would like to celebrate for him...which means our precious time alone has been cut down further...so how can I NOT be disappointed?? I'll be stuck here alone for the whole weekend..(he'll only be back late Sunday evening) ..:(

JoB DiSSaTisFacTioN

Yesterday's MI4 was tiring and stretched till late at nite b4 I could jump into my warm bed. MI4 wasn't that bad afterall.

I woke up this morning with a blister on my right foot due to the excessive walking around yesterday in a pair of cool but torturing shoes.

However, this is not wat annoyed me the most. Went into office as usual, and once I turn on my PC to check my mails...I'm totally disgusted with the way some ppl work around here...Juz like wat I've learned from 1 of my colleague, I'm made speechless~~~ No words could describe the way I feel inside. .No point in discussing on this topic, as little sMaLL Fish can't be expected to change the other creatures in this whole OceaN of Polluted WateRs~~

MI 4

Had a huge breakfast wif my 2 sexy colleagues..(hmm..1 sexy, the other...not so) The reason y 3 of us checked in so early 2day is becoz we hv a mission...a mission to transform the "not so sexy" to sexy..guess we need Tom Cruise on our side for Mission Impossible 4...

NeW BeGiNNinG

2day, my smart & sexy colleague suggested that we start a blog...and here I am..starting my own blog..as well as starting "another one" for other uses...hehehe...

Well, I'm abit hungry now..but I hv 2 wait 4 the love of my life...who's only able 2 eat wif me at 9PM...

My Love..is really & truly the only person who could stand my bloody bad bad temper..understands me well & the only one thru thick & thin, ups & downs wif me...really thankful 2 hv him...Muakksss...love u DaDa~~
