superdelicious annual dinner!

Just had a very spectacular annual dinner last night organized by my employer at Sunway resort and spa. Full of colorful dresses, and the main thing, foodies I love most! Even i just started 2 weeks time joining the company, I felt that I gonna love this apart from the salary which I think just so-so. Might be I will looking for another opportunity which can offer more. Who doesn't right?

My granny admitted to emergency hospital few days back. The doctors said my granny kinda having a low sugar in the body. She fainted and unconscious several times at my aunt house.

Guess what, I remembered the part when my bro making an emergency call to get an ambulance here. They did not know the 3 magic numbers to call, the smartass bro dialing 991! OMG..guessing that when people in state of panic, every simple thing will become harder as you cannot imagine. Basically I was not there, perhaps I will dialed the correct emergency numbers! Haha..

Ok people..it is middle of the month now,I got no clue what to do in the weekend (the point is, my purse is empty!)..after having 2 movies straight at home, cleaning the house while others are not around and then spending time at the lappy.

bye for now world!

the new me

weekend is fun afterall. I've started my new job at Combat Enterprise located Sg Buloh just 20 mins driving from my lovely house. This time I will be working in normal office working hours Monday to Friday. Thats great! I have plenty of time during weekend with family and friends..

2 days at work place I can't say much here as there is no assigned job for me for the newbies.

Now, I am trying to clear all stuff that makes my room in a mess.Oh I really hate cleaning time!

Check what u eat!

Job Hunting at career fair PWTC

Last week as I had a ride with LRT to Setiawangsa, I spotted a banner of career fair which will be held at PWTC this week. Have a look!

soon to announce..

Instead of people walking and wondering around at the car boot early in the morning only during weekend(this is my favourite part every weekend but too lazy to get up very early), I am thinking to do it via online which is more convenient.. loads of stuff will be sold, much of them are from the overseas, my pre-own stuff that never been used ever since..

Do not worry about the price. Unbeatable down further you cannot imagine!

Stay tune and I will spread to all of you!

p/s: 2 reasons why I am doing this, MONEY and ROOM CLEARANCE!

Being me

Few days before, I was not feeling well, with flu,running nose, sore throat..
Got one day MC,later tomorrow, I decided to quit my job..Again, me being an unemployed brat at home..thinking how to gain money for my everyday living expenses..
Its not that I like to quit my job randomly..I just had enough challenges I been through dealing with crumpty customer who doesn't ever know where is their manners..
I know this is not what I really want..Seriously, I am not happy with my job. End of story..I am willing to start all over again.

Happy diwali!

settled down

I realized I already skip a month for the entry..Been busy with Messy, which finally in front of my house rite now with new registration number WUK 7**5. No longer with UK registration, N874HLB (thousands spent only to clear from the port until to get new 'birth cert') Thanks so much my bro,angah who willing to sponsor(ceti ler) most of the money..

Well, I did spend my time with BFF a night before Lyn's graduation..Luckily my work finished earlier so that I can meet so called long distance relationship friend..COngratulations Lyn..

Apart from my hectic scarsm work, which every single day I will felt soo stress entertain stupid cupid S**K customer from the neighbour country,(even my mum knows I hate this job)I do realize this is the only source of money for me to be depend on..too much things to settle..yet I kept myself from quitting the job even bottom in my heart I never ever like this job,ever..

happy working people..seriously??

The one with luxurious weekend..

I have one good news..my ap application(basically it was an appeal..because of my incomplete requirement to import)just accepted but I had to wait for 2 weeks so that miti can approved my form to proceed with custom.

Last Saturday we had a marvelous open house @ myra's and aja's not to forget the 2 hours heavy traffic jammed we all stuck at MRR2 all the way from Wangsa Maju until Ampang Jaya heading to Aja's place.

Sunday, I just staying at home after tired eating and spending time meeting old friends with the hectic traffic jammed last night. Thanks to Murni willing to fetch me up..wait until I got my car back..it would be easier..

ok folks it is quarter past midnite now..gotta go and sleep for the next morning working week time!couldn't wait until next weekend to Kuantan!!yeehaa

p/s:good luck to all those who return back to glam this week..honestly,I kinda miss after summer term and to fai (who texted me, missing so much to eat kebab,fish n chips,fried chicken at Treforest..)me too crazily want to eat those thing back..one day..

Today mood..

I started my work at 9.45am today and arrived home at about 8pm later on the same day. Nothing much at work, just training session for 3 weeks with some tests. I got guest from the neighbourhood coming to beraya and mum prepared Mee Bandung Muar for them. About 9pm after I clean myself and having chit chat with the guests, we heading to Serendah meeting my friend's family for Eid and I was full with lots of delicious foodies..(dont know when to start diet)

Asking advice from my friend's mum regarding Messy situation..She was in the port about 14 days there...with my rejection of AP application. I could not do much as the AP is the main key to release Messy from the port authority.

I am praying hard to ensure the progress going smooth and I am strongly believe the first challenge is to see how I cope this thing without giving up easily..

Hang in there Messy.. I will figure out to solve this thing quick. Tomorrow have to get up early to meet the Director.Please accept my application. Ameen

The one with cat called Jay

This is not Jay the cat, he is my best friend's new baby boy

On the first day of Eid while celebrating with family at Kepong, in the afternoon we heading to Desa Jaya to mum's old neighbour since she was teenager, I asked Hafiz as he once mentioned to my grandma about his kittens..

So there we are, we adopted one male kitten (actually not so kitten..he is 3 months old)but adorable called Jay..

I got back at 8pm today and serious speaking, it is not awesome getting home late..hungry like crazy..bear in mind, I need to save a lot until my paycheck end of this month...really..prorated basis as the paycheck started every 23rd of each calendar month..I guess my salary will be about half supposedly..

I miss my study in UK..so much frankly speaking..I love spending my time there...

Before I totally forgot, I received a MMS from besties on my way back home today, a cute little toddler named Syahmi..Welcome to the beautiful world dear! We will meet soon!

Job now, Eid tomorrow!

I am already started for 4 days this week as CSO, Customer Service Officer for Mobile1 company..Its gonna be shift and this is my first time working shift..Luckily we started for 3 weeks training duration and tomorrow, Eid, will be our holiday until Sunday..

Ok gotta go..just got back from work and getting ready for last iftar in Ramadan this year..Salam Aidilfitri semua!

Family and cat

Right now after a month my lovely black and white cat name Shadow missing in action, we decided to adopt a new kitten for a replacement. I don't see any cats or kittens wondering around our place so still hoping any friends or relatives to give one cute kitten to complete our family members..

Yes family comes first but when another member of the family needed me more..while the other has full authority of my action, I just kept quite and obey to them (you just know it when you are in my shoes). I never say NO because I know I can do it but in some cases I do have rules. But overall, I do LOVE my family and will try to satisfied everyone needs. Sometimes my mom realize I was too tired being here and there treating people but I don't care because I love keeping myself busy.

Weekends are days I love most..being with friends keep me fresh and alive full of laughter and joy..

I am proud to annouce that on the 6th of September (few days before Eid), I will start joining VADS company for 6 month contract there..I am not longer unemployed person..yeay!

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri

We are proudly to wish everyone Eid Mubarak and would like to ask forgiveness in anything that we had done before..

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri

Between Ramadan and living

I am home now after 3 weeks my flight touched down early in the morning, 6am. Current status, unemployed with loads stuff in the 40 footer container finally arrived last week and now fully loaded in my room. I barely move around as the space I saved only for PC area and the bed.

What happened for 3 weeks here after my graduation?

1. Report for end of study with my sponsor.

2. Spent a week with grandma. She noticed I am getting bigger like 'mother elephant'.

3. Spent 2 nights at Kak Fad's and Fai's place meeting friends around Nilai.

4. Spent 2 nights at Dayah's in Serdang for iftar and photoshooting in Putrajaya. Besides, meeting long time friends Ida and Dayah of course!

5. Helping mum doing chores.

6. Again, spent 2 nights at weekend for pre raya shoot in UPM Serdang and Putrajaya! We had marvellous and hot day during the photoshoot!

7. Still clicking and searching online for job..My former boss offered me for 6 months contract as 'Intern' until March next year, still I not yet decide to accept it or not. It is impossible to find job in short term but I believe there is one opening for me...

I have to go, the girls assigned me to design a nice kad raya after the photoshoot. Happy fasting to all muslim.

Soon enough soon

While waiting for my windscreen replacement appointment alone in Queen Street, at last I got plenty of time to spend here sitting down and typing in my old loyal blog space.

Being a nomad (living everywhere around Treforest while waiting for my flight date soon) is not a good option other than I can save my room rental. Absolutely I am really gonna miss this place after 3 years living here as temporary resident. The shopping spree, the foodies, the cloths, the books, carboots, places, holidays, studies, exams, assignments and not to forget, the people as well.

I've had learn a lot being an international student here, same being as a foreigner in other people place, sometimes I've already getting used with their lifestyle here, punctuality, saying please and thank you in every sentence you made, being so tolerant with other people and etc the list will never go end.

Yes soon enough I will be back to my home country, it is time to serves and repay for my education here. Definitely will be back to visit here and the memory will remain forever in my heart.

“It's not just about the food; it's about that cultural experience that comes from the food and that interaction between international students and domestic students.” Molly Dwyer

Graduation

I am now officially a graduate. Will post more stories and pics afterwards!

My room is an empty jar..

Sorry for being redonkeylous (who did watch Shrek 4? Seriously it was totally hilarious!!) as

I've been busy with two wonderful great girl friends being around and keep my life even energetic rather than staying lazily in bed.

Yesterday we managed to clear out our 3 years things into the 40footer FCL for door to door shipping service back for good after graduation.

Thanks to all, the girls (nanim, sofia and zatil) who cook delicious meals for the boys and not to forget helping me out for the packing stuff, the boys who sacrifice their strength (kecix, fizul, faruk, paan and jijie) coming and pick up my things from house to the container. the neighbours (ritchie, tini) for ushering the traffic and parking of the container, will not forget the part Ritchie trying to convince the bloody stupid faraway local neighbour from calling the police drama ("I have no moment for you!"bleah really???)And yes, to all of them for the successful container loading within 3 hours.

Ok enough said, the part for clearing my things up finally finished. My room is now exactly the same condition when I first came here...like an empty jar.

Cheryl Cole - Parachute

Result came out..thank YOU

Not much to say as I just know my result later in the evening (at 8pm actually...)after everyone excited at the same time me enjoying shopping at Cardiff for the whole afternoon. Seriously I've no idea about the result came early morning today; not like as announced before which will come out tomorrow to be exact (damn you Blackboard). Until when I arrived home at half past seven, received IM's from a good friend of mine from Birmingham asking about my result..I keep explaining to her the result will be out tomorrow not today. Feeling awkward, quickly I asked Yanna and suddenly she congratulate me. Now here goes, I went to the faculty and it was true..the result was there on the board and I spotted my ID. Not so great but thank god, I'm not failed either. So can packed everything and be home quickly with my lovely family.

Thank you guys for all the support and I really really appreciated it sooo much! xxx

p.s. Now as Im writing this blog, it is raining and covering the hot weather here. I'm feeling so blissful..

however, it is also a time of celebration of achievement and
a beginning for the new graduate."

The one with the weekend..again

My today so called green girlie top and long skirt, forgot to snap photos while I wearing those.

in one hot afternoon

my brunch slice of vegie pizza with fritters

before mission

after mission

Well where should I begin with? Of-course with the weekend I reckon, apart from my long FRIENDS sitcom marathon which currently I am in the last season. Seriously I laughed myself out loud until I forgot to eat my meal which suddenly I had a serious gastric while doing some more packing stuff in the very gigantic hot sunny weather..Speaking about weather, I've had not really enough good sleep after my last paper exam here as it was totally serious said, hot and dry like feeling roasted in the oven thing!My face, hands tanned really dark and having shower twice a day is A MUST! I think I prefer autumn and spring season loads!

Again, I filled my weekend waking up early to the carboot (Saturday @ Bessemer Road while Sunday @ Sully) and love spending my money for things I really want to bring home. I dunno when I can come here and becoming another go for a resident again, but I really do know that I will miss this place like crazy!

Packing improvement; all of my winter clothes and hanging clothes in the wardrobe had been well packed in a 2 full big boxes. Still to go, 2 sets of 3 tiers drawer full with tops, pants, lingeries, socks, scarf and etc to be packed later on.

p.s. note that today is the hottest day in UK with maximum of 30 degree C. And its not shocking to see me in really dark tanned skin.

Love Happens

After finished watching a great movie Love Happens played by Jennifer Aniston and Aaron Eckhart, I kinda love the storyline that trying to make me think. Yes, in our life, we've never actually being truth and pretending anything happened in the past we can handled it smooth. Yet deep inside our mind and heart, something is actually just not right but we try to cover it up and keep it shut.

Enough babbling here..So in this lovely movie, I must say I like the 3 words that appeared and it totally gives simple meaningful sentence.

1) quidnunc [ˈkwɪdˌnʌŋk]

n

Source

a person eager to learn news and scandal; gossipmonger

[from Latin, literally: what now]

p.s. In that movie it shows something like, busy body

2) POPPYSMIC/pɒˈpɪzmɪk/

Produced with smacking of the lips.

Source

You won’t see this in your local newspaper any day soon. It comes from the Latin poppysma, via the defunct French popisme. Romans used the original for a kind of lip-smacking, clucking noise that signified satisfaction and approval, especially during lovemaking. In French, it referred to the tongue-clicking tsk-tsk sound that riders use to encourage their mounts. The only writer in English known to have used our word was James Joyce, in a stage direction in Ulysses: “FLORRY WHISPERS TO HER. WHISPERING LOVEWORDS MURMUR, LIPLAPPING LOUDLY, POPPYSMIC PLOPSLOP.”

3) sesquipedalianist

A person who uses excessively long words.

A sesquipedalianist is someone who likes to use long words. A long word is also called "sesquipedalian" so someone who USES long words is a sesquipedalianist.

Happy learning!!!

One more thing before I forgot, I like the quote at the end of the movie; 'During your travels, always keep one thing in mind, when one thing come in, something else begins.'

p.s.s. Seriously tik, as I said, there's no other S that u wondering in Fb.Hehe

My precious weekend

Sunday morning at 8am, (I thought we were early, but I over heard the seller chatting to meet next week at same time about half past six!)we went to Sully car boot sale, I got 2 black pairs of shoes(one is flat for my graduation and another is Dorothy Perkins wedges style), a nice blue kaftan, 2 pair of baby girl dress, 3 newborn babysuit, a nice grey jeans, one Next blazer for Daus, a novel; A thousand Splendid Suns, and lastly a cool design of weekend bag. Oh I love car boot!

Sully Carboot sale

Cool stuff bought from Sully!

Saturday kept me busy with few boxes packing job. I do realize I have massive things for the past 3 years which majority of them I've can't barely remember buying them (well its all about shopping therapy, once u liked,u bought, and keep it safely then forget about it! simple as that!) Now its packing time and my room in a complete mess. Still, I got the clothing and computer stuff to be continue later.

Packing progress

Few boxes containing books, souvenirs, under the bed stuffs and I dunno..got plenty boxes at down stairs hall.

A thought for the day

I love beach!!! So what?!

Yesterday we had a blast roadtrip to one of the most beautiful amazing breathtaking beach in Wales which is two hours driving from my place, the Barafundle Bay in Pembrokeshire coast.

We in a group of 4 cars drove there arriving at 12.30pm and chilling on the beach until 7pm which I totally cannot resist to leave the place..It is not fair to enjoy the beautiful beach for few hours, trust me! The interesting part is that, there is only few people here because anyone who wants to be here have to walk around 1 mile climbing and crossing the beautiful view of field and coast and its worth it! Pictures taken from a friend as I am too lazy to upload mine. Enjoy and get jealous with these amazing pictures!!!

Barafundle Bay and the sparkling beach, I'm dying to go there again!!!

Mr Giant Crab who enjoy living here. I'm so jealous with you!

Only three simple letters to describe this, WOW

On our way back home..I'm gonna really miss this place! Anyone wants to come? I'm in!

Some of the cliffs in Pembrokeshire coast

Me

I was here, swimming like never had one before!!

Camwhore beach girl

again me..with exciting face

They are making the sand castle

Owh I totally cannot erase this in my memory!!!

p/s: Thanks to my landlord who successfully persuade me to go to this one of my wish-list places I really wanted to do and go! Thanks so much Arthur, your direction really helps!

Hiking at Brecon Beacons National Park

Last Saturday we went hiking at nearby National Park, Brecon Beacons and our point was to show our loving for the beautiful mother nature, the amazing most well known waterfall Sgwd yr Eira or in english version, Fall of snow which we can walk through of it. Yes it was amazingly breathtaking scenery after a very long journey of climbing, swimming in one of the fall, walking through the national park for 6 hours, I must admit this is the unforgettable moment in my life for 3 years living in UK. Some of the pics were from a friend and mine.

View from underneath the waterfall, I risk my own tiny camera for this beautiful picture!

Fall of snow waterfall

I love this waterfall!

My hobby is back!

Almost a year I never read a single book during my past time. (To be true I did managed finish reading new novel from Cecelia Ahern which I could not hold to wait until end of term, this is crazy to wait longer for a new book!)Actually I didn't have any available time to finish reading a book but I do have time to grab 2 or 3 interesting books whenever my eyes catching those precious lists of title which came in my mind. I am a hard die fans of books since I was 4 or 5 years old. You name it every books title that published since I was a beautiful child, even in my primary school library, my favourite place during recess. My parents will took us to the public library during weekend or all of us will hangout in the book store for hours! Ok during that time it was only both of us, Daus and I. Yet and Ali, the other two brothers of mine, I never see them obsessed with books. Especially with the youngest bro, he never care of any book or school exercise books! What a waste..

So since last week I starting continue reading my book entitled, Lost and Found by Lucy Cavendish. I just paste the review from http://essentialwriters.com/book-review-lost-and-found-by-lucy-cavendish-1857.htm

Opening with a dramatic afternoon on Crete when mother-of-three Samantha Smythe almost loses one of her beloved sons, Lost and Found seems at first glance like just another hen-lit novel. However, as you get deeper into the story, Samantha slowly fleshes out into a three-dimensional character with more on her mind than her adoration for her children.

Lucy Cavendish’s talent lies in creating believable characters, especially the three children, with Edward, the ten-year-old providing a wonderful world-view that juxtaposes Samantha’s sensible standpoint, sweet, ever-hopeful Bennie and Rice-Crispie-obsessed Jamie. Au-pair Wendy is also fabulous, with her no-nonsense attitude and gradual metamorphosis from chicken-nugget-guzzling lump to a svelte, but still blunt-talking, sex-bomb.

However, it is the arrival of ten-year-old Lexie, the daughter of Samantha’s childhood friend Naomi, who adds intrigue to the mix, and keeps you hooked.

Whether you have children, want to have children, or are happy to keep your interaction with children as an occasional but amusing pastime, Lucy’s deft portrait of a modern family with all its unruly extras will warm you through and through. And if you adored the book Black Beauty by Anna Sewell as a child, you’ll be in heaven.

Ok. Gotta go fellas, need to catching up with this book and my long forever comedy series, Friends.

p/s: I got an interview for part time job at Coryton, Cardiff tomorrow at 1pm. Wish me luck so that I have enough money to survive while I am here..

2am early breakfast with Subway

For 3 nights in a row I woke up at sudden because of the weather, HOT and spicy...Nothing much during last weekend except another BBQ from MSSGlam (Malaysian Students Society Glamorgan) at our nearby open park next to the beautiful crystal clear Taff river on Saturday noon. This time we had a big laugh, cam whoring, sing a long,non-stop eating, sneak a peek to a lovely couple smooching nearby the river and laying down lazily on the throw chit chat among ourselves. Oh I swear, I am really gonna miss this unforgettable moment for whole my life. Enjoy some pretty pictures taken by our Pro, credited to Amat, Adlan and Afuk.
