Semakin 'Comel'

Malam semalam set jam pukul 5 pagi, sebab aku suka sahur lewat2.

Alih2, pagi ni tak sodar pun jam bunyi menyebabkan aku tak bangun sahur. Bangun2, tengok jam, >gasp< dah pukul 6 pagi.

Biasanya aku bersahur ngan segelas Quaker oats berperisa coklat. Masa memula dulu, rajin la nak memanaskan kuali dan menghabiskan bawang, minyak masak, nasi dan sebagainya :p Sekarang ni, setelah balik dari klinik hari tu n tengok berat badan dah naik sekilo (sekilo!!!), ditambah lagi ngan perasaan setiap kali cuci muka, tapak tangan rasa penuh je (no more that hollow feeling in the palm of my hands), aku kata - that's it. Aku kena 'control makan' bulan ni.

Yalah, kalau berat bertambah, yang lain semua maintain lagi, tapi muka aku mesti bertambah chubby. Aku teringat masa bersiap2 nak gi kelas masa third year dulu, aku berdiri depan cermin kat ruang tamu rumah nak pakai tudung, lepas tu perasan betapa chubby nya aku. Masa tu aku terjerit, 'Alamak! Chubby nyer aku!'

From that day on, budak2 rumah aku pun gelar aku Chubby (hehe. Sori aa Didiz, sama plak cam gelaran ko kat awex ko tu. Tapi bukan aku nak, diaorang yang pandai2 kasi nama tu...). Terutamanya Haiza n Bib, tak abis2 terjerit 'Chubby!!' setiap kali nak panggil aku. Hampa-gas tul.

Kesimpulannya, aku kena kurangkan makan bulan posa nih. Kalau tak, nanti aku jalan sebelah orang tu, orang lain mesti cakap 'Eh, eh... 'sehat' nyer awex dia...'

... TIDAKK!!!

Focus on Problems vs. Focus on Solutions

When NASA began the launch of astronauts into space, they found out that the pens wouldn't work at zero gravity (Ink won't flow down to the writing surface). In order to solve this problem, it took them one decade and $12 million. They developed a pen that worked at zero gravity, upside down, underwater, in practically any surface including crystal and in a temperature range from below freezing to over 300 degrees C.

And what did Russians do??

....The Russians used a Pencil!!!

Bila aku baca benda yang diforward kat aku nih, aku gelak terbahak2. Sebenarnya benda tu menunjukkan betapa complicated nyer sesetengah orang (termasuk la aku kot) bila nak setel kan sesuatu masalah yang simple. Salute kat orang Rusia for coming up with this solution.

Sejak kebelakangan ni cuaca mendung sokmo. Aku tak kisah kalau mendung dan redup je, sebab aku suka hari tak panas. Tapi bila dah hujan, aku tak suka pulak, sebab basah lencun bila nak balik dari opis. Baju pun tak kering. Yang tensennya, bila nak tido, tak hujan pulak. Hampa-gas tul...

Bila cakap pasal hujan, aku paling suka kenangan 3-4 tahun dulu. Masa tu adik-adik aku masih kecik. Sorang tu baru umur tiga, sorang lagi tu umur 4 tahun. Kalau aku balik cuti je, diaorang gumbira sesangat masa serbu aku sambil tanya, 'Bila nak main hujan?'

Memang la masa kecik2 tak elok main hujan nanti demam. Tapi bagi budak kecik, diaorang bukan reti pun benda2 cam tu. Yang diaorang tau, main hujan tu best. Jadi kalau hujan petang2 tu, aku jerit suruh cari payung besar, then budak2 tu akan berlari keluar ikut aku bermain hujan kat taman. Nampak lopak je, lompat kat lopak, biar terpercik air. Tendang lopak, lari2 dalam hujan di bawah payung. Seronok.

Tapi paling seronok dengar diaorang gelak dengan hepi nye. Tak kisah la kalau aku kena marah pulak lepas tu sebab biarkan diaorang main hujan. At least aku ajar sebelum main hujan, kena pakai baju tebal2 sikit, lepas tu mesti pakai payung =p

PENGAJARAN: Tak kisah la nak blogging time opis hour ni, asalkan keje dah siap! Hehe. Konpius? Tak de kaitan? Ada la... cuba baca betul2... ;)

Tukar lagi...

Current mood: Making a huge change. H-U-G-E change.

Current emotional state: Undefined

Current dragons in slaying-list: 5, with 1 extremely tough to kill

Current wish: To kill that difficult dragon

Aku tukar blog template ke template asal :p

Dia cakap apa? 'Tukar lagi? Kan yang sekarang ni ok?'

Tak ok la. Sbb dier nyer 'feel' tu terlalu depressing (black & gloomy), and aku tak rasa nak jadi orang yang serius n depressing....

Dua tiga minggu lepas, kawan baik aku yang poyo tepon. Soalan pertama dia - 'Akak, akak masih poyo tak?'

Poyo ni, mengikut tafsiran dia ialah 'eksen'. Hehe. Yalah kot. Aku dulu memang poyo. So, aku pun panggil dia poyo gak.

Sejak aku bertukar tempat keja n bertukar environment dari 'selamba pukul berapa nak masuk keja lantak la', ke environment yang bulan ni je aku konpem bertukar punch card ke warna hijau (lepas tu, warna merah), aku jugak bertukar attitude - dari 'slamber apa orang nak cakap', ke 'tak leh, nanti apa orang cakap??'

Perubahan yang mendadak ni b-coz aku rasa aku kena ubah sikap kepada lebih dewasa... kononnya la. Sedangkan sebenar-benarnya aku ni masih suka main lompat2, berlari2, dan bagi ikan makan. Akhirnya aku gak yang tensen. Tak leh jadi. Aku kena revert balik ke nature asal aku - minah slumber...

Walau apapun, lepas nih aku teringin nak tukar lagi. Dah lumrah aku sebagai seorang Gemini. Suka buat perubahan. Jadi lepas ni aku akan melakukan anjakan paradigma ke satu blog skin yg aku suka tapi tak leh download (hampeh tul...) so kena tunggu orang tu tolong aku. Mayday! Mayday!

Speaking? Hehe. Orait, leh. Klu aku rasa nak speaking la. Tapi la ni, aku berfikir pun dah guna BI, boleh nak masak nasi fikir - Rice, 2 pots... Huk ala! Tolong la...

We are having visitors today.

From yesterday, we had been making preparation for them to come. From flowers on the table, to catering, to initinerary, to gift packs. Everything has to be seen to.

Last night I was so tired that I fell asleep after Maghrib prayer and missed terawih. I woke up, groggy and still exhausted, showered, prayed, and fell asleep again after I took my medication. I was woken up from my deep slumber at 5 a.m. by my housemate, feeling a lot more refreshed. Sahur was a mug of chocolate-flavored Quaker oats, chocolate cake which my housemate brought from home, and pills. I didn't feel sleepy after that, so I just went about doing house chores that I never got to do after work due to sheer fatigue.

Am thinking of preparing tomyam for breaking of fast this evening. Or probably for next sahur, if I had to go back late today. Whatever. I just feel like eating tomyam. Oops. Why am I thinking of food at this hour? :p

People at Work

My work space is invaded by various invaders today.

First thing in the morning, while I was working on a confusing document (one confused confusion confusing over confusing confused. Hah!) suddenly all the managers in my division walked into my room.

'Where is he?' The Business Expansion manager asked the Sales Manager, referring to the Big Boss.

'I think he went out.' My manager quipped in.

'Obviously. So, is there a meeting now?' Business Expansion manager asked again.

'We're in here!' my manager called the Marketing manager as he hurried towards the Big Boss' room.

Marketing manager turned in surprise and joined the group.

'No meeting?' he asked, hopefully.

'Meeting's over, dude!' B.E. manager grinned.

'No kidding?'

'Of course I'm kidding. Let's just have the meeting. Later we tell him that we've had the meeting.' B.E. proposed.

'He didn't award any of us veto power,' my manager pointed out.

'So what? We act on majority around here.' B.E. cracked again. They laughed.

'I've enough of this. I have things to do!' B.E. finally said, storming out of the room.

'Aiyo! Sounds familiar...' one of them remarked. Everybody chuckled.

B.E. came in again, grinning all over his face.

'You guys! Can't let me have my day...' he shook his head.

The big boss passed by and beckoned everyone into his room. The managers looked at each other, grinned and left.

Two hours later, the IT executive came in, heaving a large box which turned out to be the fax machine. As he fiddled with the fax machine, another executive walked in.

'Are you giving me a new PC? I want a supercomputer, please.' he asked the IT exec. politely.

The IT exec smirked.

'Excuse me? I'm not giving you a new PC. I'm taking away your PC and giving you in place a typewriter.'

'No.... by the way, are you going to our other office? Because if you are, then can I come along?'

The IT exec turned to me.

'Have you been there?'

'Nope. But I heard it's enough to change an individual's perspective.'

'How so?' Exec 2 looked at me curiously.

'It's huge. It's nice. It's totally not ours.'

The IT exec nodded. 'True enough. But don't worry, we have a better ICT department than theirs.'

'Excuse me? Can you be any more obvious?'

'I can. I'm better than they're.'

I could only laughed at that.

At least there's something to laugh on today :p
