我现在看着一部戏, 名叫 - 大冒险家. 说起来,我也看过曼多戏的! 也许就是这样, 尤其是连续剧, 对于每一部戏, 我都会有一连串的批评和意见. 那一些所谓的意见也逃不过 - "不错, 真的有几分深度啊!", "我真的感受不到他的投入丫!", "这也不是一般 20 episode 的 戏而已吗?".

但是, 我敢讲, 在不同的情绪, 时间, 伴侣 以及环境之下, 一部这样的戏可以给我们不同的感觉. (事实上, 我不会看同一部戏多过一次. 就算有, 也已经隔了好几年了才看).

好了, 讲回这一部戏, 有几句话是曼有道理的. " 人到了最后, 也没什么可以带走的 " 但是 " 人一天留在世上, 他们都会去争取 ". 昭我看, 这就是人的本性吧! 物侧的引诱的确是令人产生一种虚荣感, 信心和阶级之分. 无可否认, 我所说的物侧也就是 ‘branded stuff’ 可以给我们一种 adrenaline rush (不知道这样形容适合吗?) 因为往往这些 ‘branded stuff’ 可以令我们感到自己是高级的, 是有品味的. 其实我也没反对这一种追求啊! 只是, 再仔细的思考, 这些只是过眼云灰. 真正值得我们去争取往往都是免费的, 是无价的啊!

怎么讲也好, 在我们这一个阶段, 没追求过物侧, 也算不到是个年轻人啊!heheheh

Well,basically I am just too free and i think blogging is just a good past time:) There is a new member in my family 4 day ago and she is no other than our beloved "Ginger"!

FYI, Ginger is a female Shih Tzu who is just 7 weeks. She has brown patches on both cheeks n is white in colour on top of her head.Most importantly, she is just so cute.

I will shift back to the JKR office starting on Mon. Goodbye to all my VAT friends

I felt quite delighted in knowing that there are people who actually took some of their time in my blog!..although i prefer if they are kind enough 2 drop at least a short comment. Thank you! But…this also shows that i must not simply say anything that I wish to keep it as a secret

In no time, all the people in JKR office (SMART project site) and VAT(Sub-con office where im seconded to) knew that I’ve resigned. And..Ive been repeating the reason behind it. I think maybe I should explain it here so that I need not explain n explain n explain AGAIN!!!

I expect it to be a career change altogether where what I will be doing in the future will have nothing to do with engineering (but i will still like to keep in touch with friends which i made during my "engineering time"). When I first gotten a place in UTM with a engineering course, most of my friends reacted in a quite surprising manner. Guess what?I am studying Bio-stream in F6 while waiting for the results. Well, I guess I might end up for a career in medicine ‘related’ field by now (why medicine related? - coz im not sure whether my results would entitled me for a place for medicine in local uni like what some of my friends did). Why engineering then? I made the decision based on 2 reasons :-

1. Somehow, I worried that I could not excel in STPM and I would get a course which is not of my own choice. (my family certainly could not afford to send me to colleges or overseas, hence local uni is the only possible choice in normal situation)

2. Somehow, I got a calling in my inner self that engineering ‘might’ be a good choice. I always wanted to be some kind of big-shot in a company who has the ability to strategise its direction and is the key-person to decide on the employees’ year end bonus(which means how much profit could the company get).

I did not regret studying engineering (where in one time, I actually did). I always have a feel that I wil excel in my career although there are still no signs showing that..ahaks!!

I’m getting long winded… will stop here 4 2day..
Got a little too detail (OMG)

There is 1 thing in my mind when i decided to go UTM.   However, I did not regret studying engineering (where in one time, I actually did). I always have a feel that I wil excel in my career although there are still no signs showing that..ahaks!!

I went to this country induction programme in menara standard chartered on 14-16 Aug. Only did I realised that there is a thing called Fish! Philosophy.Congratulations to those of you who have heard of this before!Otherwise, you might want to continue reading what is it all about the ‘Fish!’ thingy.

In Seattle, Washington, there is a market place called Pike Place Fish which is an otherwise ordinary fish market that is extraordinary successful.A typical employee will have to work 14 hours a day and yet they make a personal choice to bring amazing passion, playfulness, commitment and a positive attitude to work everyday. they entertain shoppers by singing, shouting, tossing fish, and interacting with the crowd. Hundreds of people show up on a daily basis (even the OL-office lady who wears nice jacket n skirt with high heels) to gawk at the workers as they fling everything from cod to crabs. The employees pride themselves on their upbeat attitude and often go out of their way to cheer up a gloomy customer.

Well..what am I talking here?just about the market place?Its much more than that! The Fish!Philosophy is a morale boosting viewpoint based on the workers of Seattle’s World Famous PIke Place Fish.

The Fish!Philosophy is based on 4 principles:-
1) Play - Everyone can benefit from a little lightening up during the day. In fact, some of the best innovations in the world are a result of playing with ideas. It is this that allows us the freedom to tap into our inner,innovative being–unearthing that which helps our organizations fly forward into the future. Successfully.

2)Make Their Day -It might be as simple as holding open a door for someone. It moves past just being pleasang as it’s taking that extra step you didnt have to take. And that makes all the difference!

3)Be there - The glue in our humanity is being fully present for one another. Being there is also a great way to practive wholeheartedness and fight burnout, because its the halfhearted tasks you perform while juggling other things that wear you out.

4)Choose your attitude - When you look for the worst you will find it everywhere. When you learn you have the power to choose your response to what life brings, you can look for the best and find apportunities you never imagined possible.

1st time to ride an ostrich, feed it with dried corn (we called it emping jagung in malay). 1st time to ride a horse (but precisely, it is a baby horse:)) And… 1st  time to ride a jet ski(although it is only for 15 min). YA….. The place is no other than our beloved PORT DICKSON (although the beach is unfit to play with:()hahaha

It is my 1st time to port dickson! please do not laugh….I know most of you went there but somehow I do not know why I did not been there before!!!

Hmmm…I would say that it is not a very good place for a vacation though but its not too bad if you hv limited time and planning. It is only fun,  provided you have lots of money to explore all its water sports or else…. it will only be a good place for pak-tohing. You know…. night beaches, sea wind, sand castles… Unfortunately, I’m not in the pak-tohing role in the trip but a bright lime light (din dang dam) instead!!! The couple would have curse me at the back for not being sensitive to their ‘needs’…but then… it went out quite fine for 3 of us staying in the same room… and having some fun in the 2 days.

What else?I feel that my blogging skill is somewhat terrible… structure of the sentences is terrible…vocabulary is terrible… the way of expressing it is terrible also.

Ive been in K.L for 2 months + 01 day counting from 16June till today(17Aug). I would say its a short period - in term of time. The reason I say that is because according to reasearch, ‘women’ has a life span of around 79 hence it is mere 0.0021 of my whole life which I have spent in the capital of Malaysia.

However, its been a roller coaster journey throughout this period.This is mainly due to the choice that I’ve made and of course I’m the one who is going 2 bear all of the consequences. Physically, I feel tired. Mentally, ( is a challenging part). I have yet to settle down. When, how, I do not know.

I used to plan very hard, trying to think beyond so that I can have a good grasp for whatever that might come by. And now, I should learn to let go, learn not to take too much effort. As the saying goes :-

The greatest thing comes when you least expected it!

WHEN I FALL IN LOVE - Nat King Cole

When I fall in love it will be forever
Or I’ll never fall in love
In a restless world like this is
Love is ended before it’s begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun

When I give my heart it will be completely
Or I’ll never give my heart
And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you.

And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you.

Take leave when you are working can be a tricky task, at least to me. I’m not sure what will you feel, but for a new engineer who has just worked for merely 1 month and has took 2days leave out of 9 days, I feel awkward. After all, "what the fuck!", everyone is entitled to certain days of annual leave and who cares why you would apply for those leaves especially to someone who hold no important responsibility in the company. However, I still try to be funny with not applying but literally having on leave yesterday. Listen here, I’m not trying to save my annual leaves, but rather lack of idea on proposing reasons for my leave……

Hopefully i will remain safe and sound ………. (hopefully nobody will ever knew it :P)

Once I read a book in MPH. There is a statement which really stroke me:-

There is no definite right or wrong in whatever decision you made. There are very few decision that would involve death, bankruptcy or even severe impact. It is good that if you were to made a sound decision, but what is so big deal if the decision is a bad one. You can always make changes and find ways to overcome it. The worst decision is you don’t even make a decision.

If you are in the middle of the road and so happened to be lost, the decision to be made is whether to turn left or right. It is alright if the decision is wrong because you can always make a U-turn and you are in-track again, just that you will get a little more tired. If you were to stand still, most likely is that you will get knocked down and that is the worst decision ever made.

However, many of us are afraid, too afraid to make changes and do not have the courage to face the consequences of failure. We are all knocked down!!!

Get on your feet and keep going!!! *kudos*
