Let the ball rolling...

To infinity and beyond!!! (tu laa, pikir lagi)...

Malaysiaku Merdeka

Salam...

I'm writing this while waiting for my name to be called @ Al- Rajhi Bank @ Selangor Dredging. Why is it that I don't feel like this is Malaysia? Mak Arabs & Pak Arabs are everywhere. But of course the modern version of them, not the typical type with long black/ white robes. Hmmm... talking about modernization & globalization...

Bukan tak suka, but just wondering how things have changed... For those single people out there, they have more options in selecting their partner/ soulmate etc. Later, u can hardly have the 'ori' Malaysia... Semuanya sudah dicelup ;)

Ciao. Have a good weekend everybody

Don't Know Why...

Salam...

Harinih mood tak berapa best...

sebabnya pagi2 dah marah2...

iskkk... tak bagus utk kesihatan, but can't help it!

jgn pikir... jgn pikir... buat bodo jek... nanti meracun kepala hotak sendirik...

oleh itu... mari kita mengulau sekejap... menengok FEDEX @ KLCC...

hensem siot!!! tak tipu... comment 'hensem- in- person' turut diberi oleh seorang lelaki yg turut mengulau bersama aku sekejap iaitu S*3d... kalau dia dah kata hensem tu, hensem betul laa tu... sbb dia tak gay... ehhehehe...

balik ofis terus lega... dah tak marah2 dah... sikit2 jek... suam2 kuku laa kot... :)

tu si roger yg sayup2 kitorang nampak... ok laa, puas gak laa hati, boleh confirm dia mmg good looking in person :)

peminat2 yg sanggup beratur... (tak sanggup den dooo). Apparently fans came all over from the neighboring countries... mcm yg ni from phillipines...

walaupon aku takleh tgk match mlm ni (dang you, bowling practises)... aku puas hati... mengulau for a good cause... hehhehehe...

Aktiviti Hujung Minggu

Salam...

last weekend was a hectic one...

abis keja friday tu, we rushed to Bt. 9, Cheras for my cousin's wedding, Zuh**r aka 'Ca**ng'...
it suddenly left a feeling that my 'baby cousin' is all grown up... (I used to babysit him)....
it's not a sad one, it's joy... tapi tipu laa kalau tak sedih kan, sebab dah besar dah budak kecik ni... ;) So, to Zuh**r and his partner, Ro****, "Selamat Pengantin Baru, Semoga berkekalan hingga ke akhir hayat... Insya Allah..."

budak kecik yg dulu aku jaga, sekarang dah kawin dah... well, i'm happy for you, Pang!

on saturday, went for an appointment @ Hosp Pantai Indah, to see Dr. Suhaimi... got a jab on my 'rear'... sakit wooo... Dr. said I have to come back on this 22nd for another blood test... adoi laaa, darah lagi...
once done, we headed to Cheras again for Zuh**r's wedding reception... mak aihh, ramainya org! no wonder, the reception was for 3 brides and grooms... Apparently it was not only for my cousin, but his wife's sisters too... man, that was a blast! my first experience of seeing that- more than a couple (poor me, probably I have less invitations than you all... ehhehe)
(BTW, they were featured in yesterday's Harian Metro... unfortunately, the writer quoted each wife to the wrong husband... hahaha, so my cousin is married to his SIL, instead...)

reception @ Ro****'s side... amik dgn satu couple, cukup...

then, off we went to Semenyih, my aunty's place... gotta lend a helping hand for the team (tho I wasn't fully in- charge of any specific task, except flower arrangements)... alamak, lupa amik gambar daaa dgn hasil kerja tanganku, boleh tahan cun laa gak (bangga sekejap sbb tak sangka boleh gubah bunga secantik itu)... at 3 am, we went to my other uncle's place in Cheras to send him to Kelana Jaya. He and his wife are leaving for Hajj... May both of you have a safe journey... mendapat keberkatan dan haji yg mabrur, Insya Allah...

the coolest person that day, didnt even shed a tear

safe trip, mak njang! Doakan kami...

once they checked-in, we went back to Semenyih (at this time I havent slept for more that 24 hours) I have not done that for a long... long... long time... reached Semenyih, me and MAM slept and woke up at 12 noon, ate and getting ready for the pengantins to berarak.... then we continue sleeping... woke up, ate... went back to sleep... woke up, headed home... and slept... there! that was pretty much things that happened yesterday... :) dah tak boleh sebenarnya tak tido for more that 24 hrs ni, I can feel that my brain wasn't functioning yesterday, sebab tu tido, tido dan tido...

p/s: I am writing this with my half- closed eyes... ngantuk lagi seh! badan pon sakit2 ni... rasa cam nak MC jek!

Emotional Intelligence (EQ)

I attended two days training on EQ (Breakthru Leaderhship: Unlocking Performance with EQ)which ended yesterday...
It was organized by Six Seconds (http://www.6seconds.org/), a non- profit org that develops and applies this vital competencies to foster healthy and productive relationships.

An interesting fact that they taught me:

It takes 6 seconds to manage anger
It takes 6 seconds to create compassion
It takes 6 seconds to make a difference.

In summary, with EQ on the job (can be applied to our daily life, too), people work together even better; they are more productive, more focused, more innovative, more prudent...

and what I found written on their website: Emotions make or break relationships, they lead us to optimal or terrible decisions, they drive our best and worst behaviors... The difference is emotional intelligence...

p/s: I didn't plan on babbling what can I learn from it, how was the food served, the facilitator etc..
but overall, it was a good learning experience that I overlooked before)...

Departed... Newborn

Salam...

I lost my cousin today, a close one...
He passed away this morning in BP, Johore...
It's devastating considering he was one of my cousins who was a 'fav' to my parents...
I remember him as someone who is 'stern-looking', but actually was a fun, resposible and a loving father to his 7 kids, and good leader/ brother to his brothers & sisters...
Alfatihah to my Abg Din... Semoga Allah mencucuri rahmat ke atasnya... Amin...

On other note, a close friends of mine delivered their 4th baby boy early this morning, too...
Alhamdulillah... now they have a platoon of boys in their squad... so Ieta, that means you are not giving up until a daughter is finally yours, arent you?
hmmm... keep on trying and better luck next time... tee hee hee...
anyways, congratulations to you and Nuar...
we'll visit you once we are back in KL, coz I need to go back to SP for my cousin's funeral, Insya Allah...

Kena Beli Jugak...

Salam...

Finally, beli jugak aku bola bowling tu... Ishhh... lepas asyik terbakar jek telinga aku dengan 'usikan2 manja' bowling team aku (hati punya terbakar toksah cakap laa kan)... I'm RM309 broke! Dang! Baik aku beli baju ke, kasut ke... hish!
Ni semua nak jaga imej punya pasal laa ni... Bukan aku laa, tp dorang... main pakai house ball + house shoes cukup laa kan.. janji aku maintain jatuhan pin aku... tp tak, sbb main utk tpt keja aku yg 'superior' status quonya, so kena laa jaga imej... eleehhh, imej pebenda nak jaga, kalau aku beli bola sendiri nanti, baling hancuss... baik toksah!

tgk laaa, besok aku ada training... so that'll be my first try/ get lucky with that ball... haritu try masa beli cam tak best jek baling... cuak gak! tak ke sia2 aku dah buang duit, in the end I still wanna use house ball... sbb rasa ada connection lagi ngan bola itu? boleh ke??? adakah akan terbakar telinga/ hati aku lagi??? lantak laaa...

sbb yang pentingnya... bola + kasut + bag tu aku boleh claim dari points flexi aku... heheheh...

p/s: To my wonderful AZA: eh, you are 19-mo today laa, sayang... Happy Birthday... love you, son!

Bed of Roses

Salam...

Yesterday right after MAM picked me up @ Ampang Park (naik LRT tuh from my office) I straight away executed my plan...

Me: B, Miva yg jual furniture tu ada Grand Sale... lets go, nak?
MAM: Miva mana pulak ni?
Me: Alaa, Miva yg ada kat tepi jalan yada..yada.. yada... I just wanna see... boleh laaa...
MAM: Aikkk, kata nak balik awal, nak main dgn AZA... ni nak menyinggah pulak kat situ?
Me: Alaaa, for a while only... sekejap sangat... kita tgk laa... and I dont think we can afford to buy one at this very moment pon... cuci2 mata jek...

And yes, I rehearsed those lines since at the office lagi... Alhamdulillah, all went well... coz MAM has agreed to it... hehhehe... tak sangka, buah cempedak dah jadik nangka...
confirm laa dah beli kan... 'can't afford to buy one, konon...' that is just as same as guys doing their pickup line to girls (this is the opposite)... we definitely can afford to buy one if they permit us to make partial payment... hahahaha... plus, we dont plan to have the 'king-bed' that soon... we need to do some re-arrangement on what we have currently... so the soonest I think I can have that transported to my place is end of this year... (takde laa lama sangat kan?)

oohh my new bed... I'm dreaming of you already... oohh BTW, B... I hope you are not mad over this 'conspiracy'... I love you as always... xoxo...

Right Now...

Salam...

aiyoh! total boredom hits me now...
help... i almost wanna vomit browsing the Net now... too much radiation, I guess!
I wanna go home, I wanna see my MAM, my AZA... I just wanna lazy-ing around at home, with the air- cond is switched on on a full blast...
my watch shows it's only 5.14pm... aiyoh! 15 more mins to go before I can get my butt outta here...
but need to go to MAM's office, he doesnt wanna come over because of the traffic congestion...
why traffic? why??? why do you have to be congested on Fri? You really make my life miserable...

B, are we planning something tonite? I think we should, coz I dont think I'm having a bad day, it's just that I need to blow off steam out of nothing.. LOL... that sounds whacky... but I just need it... alaa, lagipon kita ni bukannya pegi ronggeng mana2 pon... tak main lah! takat lepak2 minum tgk perangai org pon dah ok, koman2 pon pegi layan karok lagi...

ok...
it's now T(minus) 6... toodles everybody... have a good weekend...

Shoot Me!

Salam...

Last Sat, I had paintball game organized by my office @ Xtion Paintball Park, Bukit Jalil... was excited, was worried, was tired and was sleepy... all in a package... but being a sport myself, I wouldn't wanna miss the fun... so once I woke up, get ready with all the suitable baju (I definitely chose the thickest layer and the longest sleeve I have.. not to get burnt) and then off to the battlefield...

our battlefield is just barrel and dinding tepi hi-way tu jek... :)

MAM sent me, and watched me play... being the player few times himself, he gave me some pointers (yg I tak guna pon...) LOL... I had fun overall despite being hit dekat kaki satu, and my left shoulder (sakit ok esp yg kat bahu, habis ada satu lagi BCG)... blue- black! to whomever shot me, jom repeat laaa... I was kinda satisfied coz I tried to capture our own flag (yeah, I rock! teeheehee).

ambik gambar dulu... time baju tak cedera lagi...

I shot the opponent's flag retriever, too... To my boss, MKK... sorry laa, I had to shoot you few times, coz you seemed not to drop the flag on my first shot... so I gotta make you taste the sweetness of my non- stopping-pellet-vomiting... hehehhe... hope it doesnt leave you any scar or permanent hatred towards me... :)

but on the last game... I almost had it... my head was spinning, and I almost blacked- out (kurang oksigen kot sbb pakai masker dia yg tebal tu)... the thing is, I was dehydrated... we were playing in the middle of afternoon.. panas tak hingat punya.. tu yang macam terhonyong- hanyang lps abis game tu.. the guys yg jadik marshall tu pon cam sengih2 kerang jek tgk I... asking whether I was ok or not... chessss! dang... they must be thinking how unfit I am... ;p Panas laa, wey!


p/s: pix are all courtesy from Nuar... thanks, Nuar... aku x amik semua, yg ada muka aku jek... nilai komersil yg tinggi :)

Happy Monthlyversary

Salam...

B, I know we lost count of how many months that we've been together since we got married...
tapi takpelah... saya nak kira gak.. That's 5 years already, which is 60 months... plus another 10months.. so all are 70 months...

so to my wonderful hubby, MAM... Happy 70th monthlyversary... I love you... sama jugak!!!!
