My citizenship exam is roughly about 2 weeks away now. But somehow I am still not concentrating very well on this. However, my leave will officially starts on Monday, so I guess now I have more time and more energy to concentrate on this as I don't have to constantly worry about this recon, that recon, this checking, that verification. ok....study mode turn on! Erm, that mode seems to be missing le!!!??? Check this out, how to pump more petrol, funny la. http://202.157.174.100/20080503-ss-petr ... layer.html

I am so busy. Gonna go on leave soon, so I wanna complete whatever on hand. I still have to plan the work schedule for my colleague la. Gonna have the IMPORTANT exam on June 15. I need all the luck as some would know the standard of my Malay. Anyway, I can't concentrate on what I wanna blog about. I am trying to come out with a list of outstanding issues. I'll have some extra time off this Friday, maybe I'll write what I have been thinking about for these past few days. I'm having a picnic with Bi and his company this Saturday. Yipee! I'll have beng kang chicken wings (my fav food). haha. Cheers! Gearing for the exam.

I just learn vlookup formula is Microsoft Excel. Oh Wow! Its so useful! Ok ok, call me sakai if you want. But I'm really impressed with Microsoft Excel. Thanks to Dell for teaching me.

I don't feel well today. Swallowed some panadol. Really cant work if I dun have any pain killers. Been feeling hot and cold in the office. Sien. Must be the unstable weather. Just had a nose bleed as well. Double sien. Been ages since I last have a nose bleed. Sigh! Need some tender loving care right now.

Someone once commented that I'm an adrenaline junkie. Well, I cant very well deny that. I thrive on that rush. It's so exhilarating. The same goes for a relationship. The start of a relationship is so exhilarating. The so-called honeymoon period. Where everything is so sweet. Even an enduring trait will be hailed as sweet. Haha! I still remember the beginning days of my relationship with Bi. We got together very naturally. We started out as friends (he was a good friend of my cuz) We did not have those whirlwind courtship. Don't think its in our nature. We are more laid back. He was so sweet to me then. (Not saying that he isn't now) He would wake up early (coz I called him ma) to come to my house to bring me to campus. Coz I cant drive at that time and I hated walking to class (imagine walking at 8am to class??? Siau!) Although his class is in the afternoon, he will still come over and bring me to class (although it takes me only 5 mins to walk to campus, haha, spolit ...

Bi and me went to watch Prince Caspian last night. The movie itself doesn't feel as magical as the first movie. The tress doesn't sing anymore. All in all, its quite depressing. I appreciate the dry humour by DLF (Dear Little Friend) and the mouse, of course. I was quite surprised that there are quite a few Malays there. Coz it's well known that the Chronicles of Narnia written by C.S.Lewis is quite biblical. One of my friend just told me that Aslan is actually Jesus. It's his name and that Jesus is also known as the Lion of Judas. I believe what my friend had told me as he is a devout Christian. (I don't know all these as I am still a Buddhist) Bi asked me last night after the movie, why don't Aslan come out and help them in the first place? So I told him "If you don't believe in him, how does he help you?" And the scene about the face of the water (when there was a big tidal of wave rushing towards all those telemarines)....... there's just n...

Ok, what is your ultimate dream about getting a marriage proposal from the guy that you love? Romantic dinner? Romantic settings? Proposal on bended knees? Or issit getting the how many-how many carat ring? Get a load of this .

Before I write anything that is going on in my life, I would like to offer my condolences to the earthquake in China. The pictures and the news are heart wrenching. I would also like to offer any type of help. Be it financially or emotionally. My prayers and thoughts are with those who are injured and those who have lost someone and not forgetting those who are still waiting for news of their family or friends. When disasters like this happens, I am always grateful. Grateful that I am in a peaceful country where the worst weather is strong winds and heavy rains. Grateful that my family and friends are safe. Grateful that I have a job. Grateful that I have my health. Grateful that the crime rates are quite low. Grateful that I am still here. Sometimes we get reminders. Reminders that makes us realize that we are losing sight of what is the most important things to us. We are always so busy rushing here and there that often that we don't even have the time to think what is our dreams...

Am so tired. Drove up from Seria this morning and there are so many *bleep* drivers out there. One stupid Vios (black colour, 2008 model) nearly crashed into me. Ok ok, I really shouldn't be scolding Vios coz I am currently driving Bi's Vios. But that is one hell of a reckless driver. That is the drivers that I hate most, no responsibility. What is the difference of a few minutes? Issit worth the risk of other people's life. To tell the truth, if I have the time, I would have followed that *bleep* and confront him/her. Drive Vios also so kesi? Very fast meh ur car? Overtake like as if there are no other cars other than yourself. U don't cherish your life ma, but I really cherish mine lo since I am having lots of things going for me. I can't seem to recall his/her car plate number. If not, surely I'll put it here. Cant stand all these stupid and reckless drivers who think with their butt instead of their brain (wait, maybe they don't have a brain. yeap, that ...

Ok ok....Baby Hudu got a new toy (not that type of toy la, don't be so dirty can?) . . . . . . . . . . Dell XPS 1330 Hehe. I know, I know. I just bought a Dell Vostro not too long ago. Dell Vostro with one of my favourite cars as the wallpaper. Actually, its about a month ago only. Well, I now have a new Dell XPS 1330. Its so cool. Even got finger print technology. Thats not all, the integrated webcam can track your face one le. Then ho, then ho, it got a bluetooth mouse included in the package as well. Not only that ho, it also comes with a black organiser for you to put all the recovery disk le and also there is a cloth for you to clean the screen one le. So COOL! Ok, now u can call me 'sakai'. The Black CD Organiser But too bad, its preloaded with Windows Vista. Not Windows Xp. Actually I had a choice between Dell XPS and Mac Book. But then I'm not used to MacBook, so I chose Dell XPS instead. So, I'll be giving away my Dell Vostro. To my sis of coz. hehe ....

Am so worn out by the roadshow. However, I am glad at the response. So many people came! Its like something free is up for grabs. Hmm, oh wait, something free was out for grabs. The free upgrade of 2G to 3.5G. So many people were lining up for the free upgrade. Anyway, for those of you who are not able to upgrade your sim card during the roadshow, you can do so at any of our branch except for airport branch. The same goes for the laptop, modem and router deals. During the 3 days roadshow, I helped out in different areas.Lucky Dip, postpaid and prepaid. Well, almost every area already! hehe. So tired! Ok, no mood to write anymore. Good nite

I am totally worn out. I got home about 10:30pm from DST HQ. I thought that I was home free after the annual dinner. Apparently I was wrong. Just got picked out for being in charge of the lucky dip.

Argh! What is wrong with photo bucket? I wanna upload a new pic to my blog and it shows that the photo has been removed or deleted! So for now, there is no photo of me..... Anyway, just wanna share the good news. Got my increment this month. Hehe, its not a lot by other company standard but the thing is that I jumped from one bracket to another, meaning, my salary is increased and at the same time my housing allowance cap has also increase. Yee Ha! Its not that huge a amount. What I am happy is that I have gotten 2 times what others have. At least the management realize and recognized all the effort that I put into my work. No time for a long blog. So many things on my mind. I have to finish up some of my work. Wish me luck people. My annual dinner is this Saturday. I hope everything goes smoothly.

Lately, many things happened. I am trying to tell myself that everything happens for a reason. Still trying very hard to convince myself though. My feelings now are so mixed up that I don't even know what am I thinking. Too many external voices that I cant silence. I need to find my center once again. But whatever happens, I know that the most important thing for me right now is to pass my citizenship exam. That is my number one priority as of now till June. Then after that....hmmm, should be to get my CPA status. Been delaying taking the paper for 2 semesters already. The first semester is because of my workload and now its because of the citizenship exam. I have another 3 more papers to go. I need to be more discipline with myself.

I love Nail Artz. Whenever my budget permits me, I'll go and have my nails done. They are a pleasure to look at. Here are some of the most recent designs Had these done before the KL trip. Blue...totally striking For Chinese New Year 2008. Roses with french manicure and glitters for accentuating the french manicures! Was a bit disappointed with the roses. Doesn't really look like roses but my mom loves it. Most recent. Very stained glass look. Retro is in. The pics are a bit big huh....but very lazy to adjust the size. Anyway missed those times that me, WL and LLW went together to get our nails done. Even skipped lunch le. Haha...those were the times when my office is near the saloon. Now very far liaw. So doesn't go that often anymore. Have been uploading some photos. Too late to post today......maybe within the next few days if I'm not caught up with work and everything else.

Am watching a Singapore Series at the moment. There is this guy, Julian Hee, I think, folded 1,000 paper cranes for his gf as a token of apology. So romantic (although it is kinda time wasting) Sigh! Which bf would be so free to fold 1,000 paper cranes, overnight again le. Stop dreaming! Hmmm, if my bf has done something to me, I will demand that he buy diamonds for me....hua hua hua....bad le....lets see if he dare to do anything wrong or not. Or gimme the cash also can.

I wonder why there are some people who like to say 'This is my assistant' or 'This is my staff'. Especially if their own position is like general clerk. To make them feel good about themselves is it? Even my Head of Department calls me her colleague and her her staff. Recently, I was talking to one fren about another fren. He was telling me how this gal recently just joined his wife's company. He said something like this 'Oh, you didn't know meh? She's my wife's assistant.' Macam wanna show off that his wife got an assistant and there is someone who is a lower rank than his wife. Maybe I am too sensitive or something. I just feel like there is no need to specify what post a certain person is holding. If anyone ask whether that person is working in the same company as you are, just say 'Yeah, she is my colleague.' Short and straight to the point. Don't reply something like 'Yeah, she is only a general clerk in my company.' Just...

Ok....bad news and good news.....which one first? Bad news first (I always get the bad news first then good news, then the bad news wont be as bad rite?) I was supposed to be at the Immigresen at 8:00 sharp. So I got got bright and early at 7:00. So I was ready to leave the house arnound 7:35.......so I got ready my things and went out the door.......my sweet and fierce baby (yes my S15) wont start......when I turn the ignition, there is nothing.....no sound at all. I panicked.....Did I leave the lights on? No...checked.....The gear in P? Yes...in P, checked...so wat's wrong???? Dam...must be the battery. It was about 7:50 by that time (shit running late). Opened the hood and try and fidget some of the stuff.... (hey, although my dad is a mechanic, that doesn't make me a mechanic too) 7:55....ok time to panic.....Started calling people to see whether they can come pick me up o not.....car problems can be solved later....Mentally running the list of names of those who might be n...

Finally got those pictures that I took with my LG Viewty downloaded into my 'new' laptop. Haha. Very lihai meh??? My car also got....err last time la.....coz I changed it back to normal car doors already. I still think it looks weird on a 4 door car.... Just look at it......2 front door is lambo style....2 back door is normal.....1 word WEIRD!!!! But to give it credit, its pink! Bi's dream car......he see until he was salivating (just kidding). 3 in a row le. If not for that man near the red one....this photo would become Bi's msn display pic liaw lo. I like the yellow colour the best. 2 of my favorites colours!!!! Pink and purple. See those screens? There is even one on the steering wheel. I wonder what is it for? Is it for like displaying those temperature, controls, etc....o is it for the DVD or something. I mean....look at it...its right there in the middle of the steering wheel. One cannot just stare at the screen and drive safely can u??? Masuk longkang is more li...

I forgot to mention that I received a call from the Immigration yesterday afternoon. The woman told me that I am to go to the Immigration there next Saturday for 'Taklimat' (dunno whether issit the right spelling o not) My bro told me that the word means briefing and I should be sitting for the citizenship exam very soon. However, I hope that my turn will be in the next batch in November. I have to concentrate on my CPA right now. But if I really need to take the exam this May/June, then I would have to defer my CPA exam to the next semester. I will have to pay aud 230. Hmmm.......lets see how it goes.
