Because You're Old Enuff TODAY!


Happy Birthday, bro! =)

I never really talked about my brothers. Not because I forgot about them, but when I last left them to further study 7 years ago, we were at the age of whereby we'd rather hide them under the carpet than admitting that we were related *roll eyes*. If I had to mention it to my friends, I'd mutter under my breath, 'Yes, my younger bro can we change topic?'

Turned out I was plain stupid to being embarrassed about having younger brothers because - look at my brothers! They are every young girls' heartthrobs at school because they played sports and they are oozing in good looks. I mean - just look at their sister! (masuk basket angkat sendiri)

This is my second brother and he turned 22 yesterday. Recently he flew to KL to continue his degree program after finishing his diploma in UiTM Kuching. For the first time ever, I was joined by one of my siblings in KL.

At first I was rather reluctant to having him come over. KL is a totally different city than Kuching - what if he can't hold on his own and got mixed up in bad company? After all, Shah Alam is not that near to where we are staying now so it's hard for me to hawk over him.

Worse, what if he made the same decision as I did 7 years ago, i.e. stay put in this side of Malaysia?

Horror, horror.

But when he eventually joined us for a vacation after so many years of never going anywhere together, I kind of feel pleased to have my brother here. I had never really spent time with any of my siblings which left me really guilty about it most of the time, so having him here with me sort of vanquished that feeling. Now I'm spending time with one of my family members ok. Sesungguhnya saya bukan lupa daratan.

I would like to think that he feels likewise (hello big sister whom I've never really sit down for more than five minutes over the past 7 years but now we're spending vacation together). He even made attempts to chat (the first time he did that, saya nyaris pengsan) and that effort is actually a big leap of development for him - because he's the quietest in the family. He's almost like Chairman in personality except that he's not poyo *Ainie, jangan marah I kutuk bakal hubby you. Hahaha!*

Occasionally we texted each other and he requested for a birthday gift today (in the past years, I was usually the one who asked whether he wanted one, not the other way round). Hopefully, this whole thing is not just because he wanted my CLK. Kadang2, adik2 lelaki saya bukan boleh percaya pun, sebab mereka ada motif tersembunyi

<-- berprasangka="" br="" buruk="" muahaha="" sungguh="">
Anyway, Happy Birthday again, bro. No, I'm not giving away my CLK because you're now old enough to take up a part-time job (like me last time) and saved up for your own ride. Anggaplah kakakmu ini mengajar awak berdikari :p (padahal sebenarnya saya malas nak repair CLK lama)

Hectic

For the past two months or so, I have been kept really busy at the office. The frenzy started to build up even more the past two weeks until yesterday because of the deadline to submit appraisal nomination.

Turns out the system became haywire when it was forced to accept thousands of entries and I almost went mad in the office. There was not even time for lunch, and I went back home after 8pm almost every day.

Things were so busy that we even spoke in abbreviations:

Me: The system deleted one of our user's name, so I can't assist him.
Colleague: Really? OMG!
Me: I know! WTH??
(and we both cracked up)

Yup, it's fun fun fun in the office now.

Pick up Your Own Rubbish, La!

In my most obnoxious opinion, I think Malaysian tourists are irresponsible and lazy. No doubt everyone is entitled to be lazy during their break, but that should not be an excuse to litter lovely places like Pangkor Island!

Oh yeah, btw I'm currently sitting down for a late lunch in Pulau Pangkor, one of my fave spot. Usually I don't blog when I'm on vacation but I'm so indignant at the behavior of Malaysian tourists that I simply must whip out my mobile and vent out my feeling HERE AND NOW!

I'm utterly upset with the attitude of 'someone else will clean up my rubbish' especially when it is committed at beautiful locations famous for its natural wonder. Malaysian tourists are usually the culprits with this disgusting attitude. They don't even feel guilty! In their pea-sized brain, as long as it's not my property, I can't be bothered. Other people also do, what?

Yet when they visit other countries they have the nerve to complain that 'Malaysia so dirttyyyy..' Dumbo. Who created the mess in the first place?

Is it too heavy to bring along disposable bags to keep all the rubbish after you're done with your picnics? Is it such a hassle to pick up that plastic wrappers / empty bottles / cans and stuff them in your bag before dumping them in rubbish bin at the main island? Got no brain, kah? Or you people actually stay in rubbish dump, so already used to it?

Kesian... Stay in rubbish dump. No wonder cannot learn to pick up own rubbish.

Come on la people! You all love holiday-ing, just like we do. We go to sandy white beaches with clear water so we can look at the colourful fishes. So please don't turn that white beach into 'colourful' beach because of various plastic wrappers left behind. Don't choke the fishes by leaving empty bread wrappers after feeding 'em with the bread. In short, don't spoil our vacation places!

Or you'd rather don't have any places to go to during school break / public hols because you spoilt them? If I was born with pots of money, I'd probably buy all the islands in Malaysia and make them private! Padan muka korang takde tempat lagi nak dikotorkan! Then you can just rot in your rubbish dump home while I enjoy having beautiful & CLEAN islands, protected from uncivilised & irresponsible people like you people. Hahahaha!

I just hope that if Malaysian tourists who happened to stumble into my blog read this rant of mine, they will sit up and take note. Siapa yang makan cili, dia yang terasa pedasnya. Do the right thing.

Be responsible. Pick up your own rubbish! Believe me, it's not that hard at all. If you're too dumb, I'll give free lessons on Proper Rubbish Disposal 101. No problem!

Kenapa Kerja-kerja Kemaskini Blog Telah Delay...

Ini bukan alasan remeh-temeh. Ini ialah hakikat kehidupan.

Kehidupan itu ialah kehidupan saya. Sejak kebelakangan ni, saya memang seboks. Dari pagi hingga petang, saya cuma bangun dari tempat saya untuk buat air / pergi toilet / solat / makan. Saya tak ada masa sembang2, borak2, hahaha sana-sini. Stress adalah di tahap yang membahayakan. Jadi, petang2 saya akan pergi ke gym.

Apa? Kamu tak percaya? *Pembaca blog korek2 telinga & mata membaca ayat terakhir saya*

Memang benar. Saya tak tipu. Semenjak dua-menjak ni, saya memang kaki gym. Saya pergi gym 2-3 kali seminggu. Ini ialah percubaan untuk menyihatkan minda dan badan. Saya jugak ada seorang personal trainer untuk mendera melatih saya bersukan dengan selamat & efektif. Hahaha. Ini ialah hadiah kepada diri-sendiri kerana berjaya melepasi tempoh 6 bulan percubaan dalam kerja saya sekarang. Hasilnya, saya pulang ke rumah dengan badan yang sakit tetapi hati yang gumbira. Mungkin saya sebenarnya seorang yang sadis.

Secara pendeknya, kehidupan yang ultra-stress, mendorong saya pergi ke gym. Seterusnya, saya pulang rumah dengan badan yang sakit dan penat. Lalu, saya pun tido awal dan terus tak pedulikan blog saya lagi. Huhu.

Anyway, lusa saya akan travelling ke Kuantan lagi selama 4 hari. Saya akan balik ke KL hari Jumaat. Suami Terchenta gumbira tak terkata. Sebab tak ada orang yang akan membebel bila dia cuma habiskan masa buat programming pagi, petang, siang & malam *lariiiii!*

Saya tak de apa-apa lagi nak di 'bla-bla'. Boleh balik blog masing-masing. G'nite!

Overhauling My Blog Soon

On 1st January last week, my blog was supposed to undergo a major cosmetic surgery. HOWEVER, I never got around to do it, partially because I was not in the mood of designing new blog design, and partially because I was too busy holiday-ing.

However, I've finally made a start today and hopefully, the revamped blog under a new address will soon be launched within this month. Internet community, pray for my diligence & perseverance!


p/s: By the way, do feel free to express your opinion regarding your favourite category(s) in my blog, so I know what to prioritize in my new design later ;)
