If its not because I would be going on holiday, my mood wouldn’t be so chirpy as off today..in less than 36 hours I would leave my office cubicle to shopping paradise , sounds a tad pathetic but then again…
Yes, I would be on holiday again for approximately 3 weeks, randomness had bought me here to blog today, my blog is wayyyyyy too dusty and overdue, but it also means that my life had been very blissful that I have no time to blog…
Will blog again

Of lemongrass n dusit
Another is a very random post. Last night, before I go to bed, I slather on the body lotion that I took from the hotel on my feet last night,
Do you know if u put lotion on your feet and then wear socks to sleep, u will have smooth heels the next day? It prevents you from having this ugly, hideous crack heels and u can wear those fancy shoes,
Anyways, the smell of lemongrass from the lotion reminds me of dusit thani, the place that I always stay in Bangkok. The friendly welcome “sawasdee” from the entrance of the lobby smells of lemongrass, the 5-star service that I’ve been spoilt of, the variety of western and eastern breakfast when you open your eyes, the endless room service that I can call…
Now Bangkok is just not that save to travel and I have been bumming a lot at home….
I forgot how to make my sheets when I wake up,
I forgot to boil water because I need it for coffee,
I forgot to do my laundry and forgot to sent them,
I forgot that newspaper does not deliver to my room,
I forgot that I need to buy juices to stock up my fridge,
I forgot that I need to on the heater and that there are no new fresh towels in my shower,
I forgot so many stuff,
I forgot that I am back at home…
Being back at home, I didn’t realize how much I been taking for granted of the services that I had in the hotel, now it seems that doing all this tiny little stuff takes quite some of my time , but then again all this errands that I’ve done makes me realize that the services provided are equally important and doing it myself, I learn to appreciate the tiny stuff that my mum have always done for me and everyone back at home . Everything was also washed, cleaned and put back into the place so we children could easily find them. My mum did not have housekeeping department or room service; she was the chef, the cleaner, the designer, the baker, the driver, the HOME MAKER.
Coming bac home,
it’s like being in dusit,your mum does everything for, home is where the heart is and it will certainly smell of lemongrass too,well ..because slathering on lotion from dusit is going to last for quite some time too..

a new member in my family..
having live with seven has not been an easy task, especially when there are five ladies in the house, my sister is trying to strike a balance now by recruiting another male species ...
with three rooms already occupied upstairs and almost spilling over, one could imagine how we could fit another member back here in my mother's place. It's been a few weeks now and i think we are getting adapted to the newest member in our family already..
how can we not welcome a cute member in our family, my sister has been a proud mother and by all the research she is doing, one should give her credit for preparing to give our newest member much comfort with every tiny -detailed little stuff ...
behold.... our cutest member and also a superstar in the house now
*
*
*
*
*

CHUBBY PAK...!
PAK.. is his last name...because that's what we call him, also what everyone in the house calls him, he has been quite famous now, everyday mostly, in different time of the day...
I am not a pet lover myself because i just like to play with them but hate responsibility and commitment, but one can't help looking at chubby because he'll cheer you up by doing some really funny faces and some funky moves....

i wonder....
Defeated.
I usually dun feel this way but when it comes to love I become weak, I’ve been trying to find the right words to say but this has been the hardest… an I’m still lost….
Looking back, I wonder if I had made the right decision,I wonder if the sleepless night was worth it, or the endless tears would wash away hurts that could never heal; I wonder if I skipped my meals would anyone notice that I am alright?
I wonder if religion is important? That people would spend time understanding it, I wonder if my faith is strong, that its enough to overcome the past and courage to move on? I wonder if I am able to breathe new life to my soul ?
I wonder if there is a program to install love? or to make someone human? I wonder if ever I was given a chance, would I do it again or would I do something different? I wonder…

sawadee.....
Sawasdee..... is what u greet people when u see people here in bangkok, unlike the Malaysian style "sudah makan? " we say sawadee here..ends with kaa if your are girl or kup if your are a guy, krup if you are neither..... being a part of bangkokians is not much fun at all, especially when everyone walks a lot. there is no point taking a freaking tuk-tuk or catching a cab when the speed is an average or 25km per hour,
Might as well walk to the BTS station and then walk some more again back to your hotel... i manage to bring my brother go sight-seeing while he was having a school break back in Malaysia. this is my bro amazed by the traffic jam every minute in bangkok, we were taking the other direction,
it was too congested to go thru sukhvumit road...(sukhumit road is the longest and busiest street everyday , something like jalan sultan ismail, jalan p.ramlee back in kuala lumpur)
i brought him shopping of course, in the heart of the city, Yaowarat!!! ..means chinatown in bangkok, its near to hua lam phong station...or u can take a mrt there...but i reckon u that anyone should take a cab to Chinatown from the mrt, its a loooooong walk from there... when i say long , it means at least 20mins walk....unless you can really walk but malaysian will opt to take tuk -tuk or cab...cost not more than 50B or RM 5..anything more means you've been taken for a ride.....
my bro was amazed not only by the amount of stuff sold in chinatown , but also the smells the he pick up evry now and then, the are local thais selling main dishes with sweet and sour aroma and the opposite you have chinese -thai selling fish maws,with dried squid... now put the smell together and learn to distinguish which is aroma and which is smelly...i really have no idea at all....but here are some pics for you to see...
# one of the shop in chinatown selling fish maws..
the fish stomach here are pretty cheap compare to those back home in malaysia, or sabah or china...one packet is about RM 12 and its about 500G... fried one i mean...but mostly are fried...
u can also get shitake mushrooms here which is very cheap.... the chinatown in bangkok is much bigger than the one in kuala lumpur, say at least 10 times bigger, and the road 2 times smaller,very narrow.... everything congested in the bustling life instead of chinatown...the end of chinatown actually sells more accessories and jeweleries one can imagine....
# the width of the road in chinatown itself,
only motorsai are accessible via this lane, if the cab driver choose to drops you off, then jus let them drop you off at the main street , the main street would look a little bit like hong kong, mong kok street... if you dun know how mong kok in hong kong would looks like then go figure :P
chinatown is a must see when visiting bangkok. of course you can also go see pat pong , then again people like me would have no interest in pat pong or you could go to the flaoting market but its about 1.5 hours drive from bangkok itself..we spend almost half a day in bangkok,chinatown. there is a lot to see and also a lot to eat if you like bird nest and shark fin, along some corners u may find food vendors selling fish stomach with bamboo shoots, try it!
at the end of chinatown would be thieves market, you may see a lot of Nepal and Pakistani in the street there..its not called thieves market if you think people there look like thives, or occasionally one or two may look like one :P , the nepal and pakistanis mainly sell cloth...you may be suprise that they actually speak fluent thai and english... they sell cloth in bulk...they are also sisha but the stuff are sent to pattaya or other tourist attraction places in the coast of thailand...
our journey ended around 4pm local time.... we were very tired when we reached the hotel. also exhausted from all the walking...
thats all for chinatown , more photos later!!!

Bac home with love
I’ve been having dinner without the person that I adore for the very past few days, and as time flies, the days had turn to weeks and I’ve always hated when we are separated for a long time. Long time for me means more than a week, I dun care if u think I’m crazy or others think that a week is still tolerable because for me it is not.
And yesterday was a very bad day for me, I did call him to tell that I was pretty much quite sick with work, and my lady boss is jus breathing down my neck as the exhibition days approach.. there were so many stuff to follow up especially when handover list and so many stuff she wanna change here n there. I jus need to get done. Yes, I complained over the phone and I needed attention and I needed him over , if its possible, to comfort me , to hug me, to make me feel better….of course there were worst problem that he was facing at work because he had explained that he was gonna be busy during this time of the month. But it still didn’t stop me from complaining and sulking to him.
“ you know what? I’ll take the next flight home”
“ what? Why….? I tot u haf work ??”
“ perhaps you would feel better …..i’ll see you in the evening then…take care baby”
That was the sweetest thing…

Mat tow tak....
Ever since I was angry with B for several days, he has not taken any initiative to make me happy….or perhaps I’m too stubborn to be happy in front of him….B is a person that I care about but I will blog about him another time k?
recently, he had given me a letter …consisting of three coupons cutely drawn and sign by him…. Which I find rather cute and charming..
I find myself staring at the coupons, giggling and trying to make full use of the coupons that B had gave me......
I’ve been given three coupons by B to use with no expiry date and no limit.
Well the coupons given and drawn by him is called “ mat tow tak”..meaning?...anything also can….
It can be use for anything …
For a holiday
For a Back rub
For a handbag
For a car
For being my driver
For a house…waaa seh…..not possible la….
I think the list can go on,
I wonder why he didn’t give me one instead ??
could it be possible to request for unlimited mat tow tak with the one coupons I have…..?
That would be total awesome ness!!
What do u think ? what should I do with the coupons?

Version 1.01
My auntie had came down from china during chinese new year 09, ever since she married the ducth guy...she had moved to Holland and then my uncle was transferred to China to an international school there.... who speaks chinese (not bad for a dutch guy, even better than me), i actually have not seen her for quite sometime, moreover...i did not realise how much she actually looks like my dad only until recently... ( u guys should come bac more often, it's really fun!! )
perhaps when i was very very young, i never thought that people can grow old, your aunty would always remain like that in your memory when they left you...(in this case, she had left Holland)..my brain jus cant generate how she would adapt wrinkles or eyebags unless she send me photos of herself.. don't you think so?
and secondly when you were very young, who would had thought that my aunty is suppose to be my father sister cause my mother would have a hard time explaining to me what is relative, and why we call her aunty and how come my aunty also have the same parents like my dad....but why she would be holding hands with another guy which is completely different from us, blah blah blah....i can be quite annoying for a kid. my question would never end.....
back to my story, since my dad is the eldest child, he was the first version that my grandma produced, my aunty just look like the girl version..and its really funny when my siblings talk about it..she is a version of V1.01 cause my dad is V1.00...(my dad gotta be the orginal rite?)...and thus my uncle was categorise under V.1.03 who seems to be fatter version....
compare to me, i may never look like any of my siblings, thats because i'm much prettier..or perhaps i'm jus anak kutip..maybe my real parents are rich tycoon....
ok ok la, i know what u will say...dun dream so much rite?
but being the eldest, version 1.00 is the authentic one..
You dun think so meh?

Grandpa, grandpa!
This is a story of a man who was admitted to hospital due to uti, urinary tract infection, go wiki if u wanna know more, but it's a problem where there is a frequent urge to urinate and a painful, burning feeling in the area of the bladder or urethra during urination. Also feeling over—tired, shaky, washed out—and and even painful even when not urinating.
anyway, that's not the point of my story,this man i was referring to is my grandfather.
and this is him waiting for all my uncles to come a.k.a his sons...and my mum which is the daughter. he was admitted to A & E at 11 am, because it was a Sunday, and he could not wait for monday because monday was also a public holiday which is thaipusam...and i dun think any human could have waited for so long to be saved....
he was already in pain and feeling discomfort all over on the saturday, he tried to call everyone (his sons) on the sunday morning,
as usual my uncles have all turn to deaf ears because they were all too busy with their own lives and their schedule...my mum was like 100 km away and the only person whom my grandpa could actually reach was me...
We admitted him and he was unto all this tube up and down...
it breaks my hearts to see him in soo much pain because the nurses were hostile as they tried to poke his veins for av..grandpa still tried to remain macho even in his seventy
he tried to take the pain..but i could see how hard he had grasp the handle of the chair, i could see his knuckles turn white and i knew it was not jus a wee bit pain....which he told me later....
siu siu thong la which mean (jus a little bit pain)
For many hours in the ward he stood n stand, occasionally he fell asleep perhaps about 5-15 mins, but he keep waking up cause he said he was not comfortable sleeping in the hospital...
he keep asking me if all my uncles knew he was admitted....(duh! of course they knew)
but they didnt turned up..
Each hour from 2 pm onwards. my grandpa keep asking me if my uncles knew which ward he was admitted,i assure him that i ...jus like him... had call all of them to come and see their ONLY FATHER .... but none of my uncles called,
nor did they bother about their own father being admitted in the hospital,
or what was his condition,
or whether it was serious,
or perhaps jus call me to speak to him,
no ...!!!they did nothing....
i do wonder sometimes what is so important than the person who raise them up...
my grandpa may not be a good father because life was difficult last time,(which i will blog about another time, when i have time, geddit ? nevermind...)
but all my uncles (in this case is 3 of them)were having their own business and each of them are living quite a good life,sometimes.... it's their wife who scares me....
well...actually.... most of the time their wife scares me....
but how can they be so caught up??
Would my cousin go and see their own father who is admitted in the hospital when they are old one day? (which in this case is my uncles and my cousins; is their son)
further more, my uncles have been staying in a radius not more than 5km from my grandparents...and what could normal malaysian be doing on a sunday except lazing around at home or shopping?
my grandfather complaint,
a little while he would ask me to list down items he need,
a little while more he would say that he dun need them all,
later he would need another blanket,
or what if he get hungry at 12.30 am,
he is so random i tell you,
more random than me..
T________T
finally when it was about 7.30 pm,i guess that they all came and make a great entry of course, bringing my grandmother as well as the entire troop...i think the whole bed was crowded....more than 10 people..
my grandfather complaint and grumble a little when he saw my cousins, but i knew deep inside his heart,
he was glad,
he was happy,
their presence means more than the dessert that my grandma brought,
althought i think, the dessert is good enough to make him happy....
later before i leave he told he wanted Kay f See ??
his favourite KFC....with mash potatoes
quite demanding also for a patient...
But KFC also KFC la....what else can a grandfather ask for??
not like he can play PS3 or PSP?
anyway, that's not the point of my story,this man i was referring to is my grandfather.
and this is him waiting for all my uncles to come a.k.a his sons...and my mum which is the daughter. he was admitted to A & E at 11 am, because it was a Sunday, and he could not wait for monday because monday was also a public holiday which is thaipusam...and i dun think any human could have waited for so long to be saved....he was already in pain and feeling discomfort all over on the saturday, he tried to call everyone (his sons) on the sunday morning,
as usual my uncles have all turn to deaf ears because they were all too busy with their own lives and their schedule...my mum was like 100 km away and the only person whom my grandpa could actually reach was me...
We admitted him and he was unto all this tube up and down...
it breaks my hearts to see him in soo much pain because the nurses were hostile as they tried to poke his veins for av..grandpa still tried to remain macho even in his seventy
he tried to take the pain..but i could see how hard he had grasp the handle of the chair, i could see his knuckles turn white and i knew it was not jus a wee bit pain....which he told me later....
siu siu thong la which mean (jus a little bit pain)
For many hours in the ward he stood n stand, occasionally he fell asleep perhaps about 5-15 mins, but he keep waking up cause he said he was not comfortable sleeping in the hospital...
he keep asking me if all my uncles knew he was admitted....(duh! of course they knew)
but they didnt turned up..
Each hour from 2 pm onwards. my grandpa keep asking me if my uncles knew which ward he was admitted,i assure him that i ...jus like him... had call all of them to come and see their ONLY FATHER .... but none of my uncles called,
nor did they bother about their own father being admitted in the hospital,
or what was his condition,
or whether it was serious,
or perhaps jus call me to speak to him,
no ...!!!they did nothing....
i do wonder sometimes what is so important than the person who raise them up...
my grandpa may not be a good father because life was difficult last time,(which i will blog about another time, when i have time, geddit ? nevermind...)
but all my uncles (in this case is 3 of them)were having their own business and each of them are living quite a good life,sometimes.... it's their wife who scares me....
well...actually.... most of the time their wife scares me....
but how can they be so caught up??
Would my cousin go and see their own father who is admitted in the hospital when they are old one day? (which in this case is my uncles and my cousins; is their son)
further more, my uncles have been staying in a radius not more than 5km from my grandparents...and what could normal malaysian be doing on a sunday except lazing around at home or shopping?
my grandfather complaint,
a little while he would ask me to list down items he need,
a little while more he would say that he dun need them all,
later he would need another blanket,
or what if he get hungry at 12.30 am,
he is so random i tell you,
more random than me..
T________T
finally when it was about 7.30 pm,i guess that they all came and make a great entry of course, bringing my grandmother as well as the entire troop...i think the whole bed was crowded....more than 10 people..
my grandfather complaint and grumble a little when he saw my cousins, but i knew deep inside his heart,
he was glad,
he was happy,
their presence means more than the dessert that my grandma brought,
althought i think, the dessert is good enough to make him happy....
later before i leave he told he wanted Kay f See ??
his favourite KFC....with mash potatoes
quite demanding also for a patient...
But KFC also KFC la....what else can a grandfather ask for??
not like he can play PS3 or PSP?
My biggest ang pau - Part 2
before you read this part 2,
read part 1 here
Anyway, before chinese new year (CNY), i did ask PETTY if we have any off day because our company is so particular.....about feng shui.... and usually chinaman company distribute bonuses before the reunion dinner as well and ang pau for first day work after cny....i had ask her such question so that i could inform the accounts dept. what to prepare such sum......
WEll, for a start....we did not have any off day.....
We start work on the 3rd day unless we obtained leave...
There is no dinner cause heck...she was going off to Japan for holiday, who needs the dinner when she's not even there feasting it [at least approved us to book a table under company also dun have]
bonus? no need to say lo...i didnt even complete a whole year as a staff, no bonus for me...so i thought maybe a pro-rate would do me good la since i also got contribute towards the project ma....
pro rate also dun have....[sigh]
nevermind la...if that don't have, surely there is a special ang pau for my hard work.....
so i waited...
on the 23rd january PETTY SAID SOMETHING WHICH GOES LIKE THIS " last time when i word, i never expect any ang pau from my boss wan, cause why should any staff be any special from the other, anyway, since i wont be seeing you..Gong xi Fa cai!" and leave she office at 3.15 p.m
OH...MY...GOSH!!...
U GOTTA BE KIDDING ME.....that's it? that's her ang pow...?
so after Chinese new year, and some chat with my friends and family , i've decided....
instead of PETTY giving me an ang pau, i should give her one ...
one that requires her to no longer give me any in the future also.....
JENG! JENG! JENG! JENG!
MY BIGGEST ANG POW TO HER ...i resign lo...
apa lagi? (what else) when she came bac, it was still chinese new year ..
PETTY was shocked la,, after explaining to her that i wanted to resign and some stories la that i made up plus all her schemes in conning me to do her project and not getting paid as per package mention...(why?u think i won't tell her ar??)...
i told her that i would not consider staying on.NOT OK?
it was hell to work in a kedekut company..
she handed me an ang pau..inside got RM 50...(i opened it later la of course)
she also mentioned to my colleague that she wanted to give dinner but no time to -re-schedule cause she wanted to give a surprise to everyone ..which i find is SUPER LAME!
AND she would implement thaipusam n federal teritorry as holiday since we not entitled..
pffttt!! People wann leave , PETTY can say any bull sH**T? am i not right??
anyways, i'll be serving my notice and i'll be off for holidays soon.
so dun find me ya in Solaris..but i don't mind if u wanna belanja me Tenji...

What is your biggest ang pow.......
Ever since i've joined the new company here in Solaris, work pretty much sucks... there is saying that goes you cant have both...
both for me means a good pay, the other would be a good boss,
My previous job had me a good boss, but i work like a cow, monday to friday, half day on saturday, sometimes i have sms coming to me at night to remind me of the task i need to do tomorrow from my boss when i was bac in my old firm. however, the boss would make it up by buying me some fancy lunch or tea break. (i'm so easily satiesfied ...haiz....)
In a way, he was very nice...i guess it must be the feeling or remorse over the salary he had issues every month.... he must must had known that i knew about his monthly expenses that cost 4 times my salary....
anyways, after being working like a cow for more than 2 years or so, i finally call it quit and i moved on..... here to solaris, mont kiara......for a higher salary...
not that high but high enough for my monthly expenses la....i'm not director or ceo..how much salary u think i will have???
thus the saying, you cant have both...my current boss...let's give HER a name..PETTY ...is the most calculative, stingy, indecisive, crazy, pathetic, moody ,insane, boss one can ever have....
i've been here for 6 months and i think PETTY is starting to get on my nerves,
She gives instruction like a police officer, with a squeaky tone.....
its really scary.....
In the beginning Petty looks like every ordinary lady boss who is eager for you to join their firm, in the interview, she would suggest cool hang out places in solaris and that you will be appraise once you've completed the project,and i only work 5 days, monday to friday, i get to go oversea and everything is been paid for, meal, accomodation,blah blah blah.... or even better u get to override the commission if the project is good....
my oh my.....i was naive...and the terms n conditions were too good to be true....it was as sexy as my backside,i tell u...i mean the terms were attractive....of course i accepted the offer without hesitation.....
only to find out that my first asignment to kk, not only she paid for my expenses but she also provide me with a roomie, which is one of her sales staff to share room wid me...she also provided breakfast but not in the hotel, at the sum not more than RM 8 in whereever place i wanna eat and whatever extra that i cannot claim.....
pretty impressive right!..the overridding commission was more impressive, it seems that there was a threshold in obtaining it, that the sales team would close the deal, and i would only overide half of half..means not even enough to buy toothbrush n tootpaste...
whats worse, PETTY actually complained to one of my colleague that i'm calculative for submitting my claims....that is the paling hebat sekali....
Anyway, before chinese new year (CNY), i did ask PETTY if we have any off day because our company is so particular.....about feng shui.... and usually chinaman company distribute bonuses before the reunion dinner as well and ang pau for first day work after cny....i had ask her such question so that i could inform the accounts dept. what to prepare such sum......
WEll, for a start....we did not have any off day.....

the reunion dinner and and pau??
Guess what was her reply?
PETTY is quite creative.. u know

Can life be more boring than playing free cell in office?
the time 17.57 pm...
And I’m figuring out if I should move the seven hearts above so that I can have allowance to move my queen….
I was playing free cell a minute ago and I could not find any better reason to start work despite its almost the end of the day……..
Though working in solaris is much fun especially when the sun sets, basically coping the day time in office totally sucks…especially when there is
No bonus.
No increment.
No performance appraisal.
No bonus leave.
No annual trips.
No hoi kong makan ( you usually have this lunch/dinner for chinaman company)
No free lunch.
No big ang pau..
Need I say more????

The Day You Went Away
Well I wonder could it be
When I was dreaming 'bout you baby
You were dreaming of me
Call me crazy, call me blind
To still be suffering is stupid
After all of this time
Did I lose my love to someone better
And does she love you like I do
I do, you know I really really do
Well hey
So much I need to say
Been lonely since the day
The day you went away
So sad but true
For me there's only you
Been crying since the day
The day you went away
I remember date and time
September twenty second
Sunday twenty five after nine
In the doorway with your case
No longer shouting at each other
There were tears on our faces
And we were letting go of something special
Something we'll never have again
I know, I guess I really really know
Well hey
So much I need to say
Been lonely since the day
The day you went away
So sad but true
For me there's only you
Been crying since the day
The day you went away
The day you went away
The day you went away
Did I lose my love to someone better
And does she love you like I do
I do, you know I really really do
Well hey
So much I need to say
Been lonely since the day
The day you went away
So sad but true
For me there's only you
Been crying since the day
The day you went away
Why do we never know
What we've got 'til it's gone
How could I carry on
The day you went away
Cause I've been missing you
So much I have to say
Been crying since the day
The day you went away
The day you went away
The day you went away
