Back to work

So...
I'm back to where i started..
back to working life...
back to sitting in front of the PC..
back to eating tapau food for the next "dunnno how many days"..
back to good old JT..
back to the companion of my soulmates..
back to doing everything on my own..
back to being a grown up after being pampered at home...
back to hectic life..


Had loads of fun during my long holiday at home..
met up with old friends, didnt manage to meet up with some, catching up with relatives, gambling with kids, not having to worry about anything.. sigh...

"I've forgotten how to work" told the roomate last night..

Productive Weekend

Rite, this is gonna be a typical, "Dear diary, yesterday i did yadyada, today i'm going to yadayada" kinda entry...



Had an amazingly, productive, fun, long, tiring weekend. Went to 4 malls in 3 days. (Talk about activity!)

Thursday! Went straight to dinner and movie after work ^^ Watched Princcess and the Frog. Love the colours, the soundtracks, the character.. Yup, i'm a sucker for happy endings...

Friday! Was stuck in Midvalley's carpark for bloody 2 hours before we got a parking. Where the hell do all the poeple come from? and the best thing? Michael was running low on fuel (!!!) and there is no petrol station in Shopping malls... i was so afraid that i have to call someone and go "erm.. hello? We r stuck in midvalley's carpark with an empty tank, can u come save us?" Yup, we will need to wait for another 2 hours for our saviour to finally reach us. How did we managed to get a parking? I used my next year's bday wish sheesh... Went for a nice lunch and didnt get anything. Friday nite! Went to see The Swimming Instructor. Full house, average acting, lame lines, hot bods! speedos! bikinis! okay it was not that bad, but aint that great either..

Saturday! Manicure and being pampered ^^ Ah bui i love you, when r we going for spa?
And spent half the day searching for a nice suit.
I refused to leave without getting anything. Oliver said with the amount of money he spent on his suit, he will need to do OT at u-know-where. After several hours, we managed to find him a nice, decent one which makes him look like a groom ^^
Countdown with Angela!! Say bye bye to Club 23 and Hello to Club 24!

Sunday! Went last minute present searching for Angela! Happy Birthday babe!! Went to IU (again) and spent 1 hour looking for a parking (again). Rushed like a mad woman and finally managed to get something phew. Got it nicely wrapped and She just ripped it coz what's inside is more important.
Had a great dinner with great company and great fun at a cozy Italian place with a very strict but nice owner.

Monday! Back to work and back to facing my pc pfftt..

Ahoy there~

Yeap, I'm still alive..and so is the blog. Was tempted to just let it die its slow death though. But I couldn't bring myself to do that. After all i started this the same time I created Babyblubelle.com. Now Babyblubelle.com died, I have to keep this alive hmph!

Actually I have lotsa things to talk about. It's just that i delay and delay and the things i want t0 talk about bertimbun timbun and in the end i'm too lazy to type.

Okay, first of all, it has been 3 months.. how time flies. And I'm getting bored of what i'm doing. Not a very good new isn't it? Let's wait till After CNY and see how things go.

2012 is awesome! brilliant! kancheong!! Nah, I just have a thing for disaster movie and the-world-is-going-to-end-but-some-good looking-hero-will-save-his-family-and-humankind-nomatter-what kinda movie. You know, like The Day after Tomorrow or the one with Tom Cruise and some tripods, Independence Day etc. My eyes were glued to the screen for the whole 2 hours 40 minutes (except for the first 5 minutes coz I was at the toilet :)

Aunt and uncle and couzzies were here last week. Took the day off and brought them around.. Went to KL on my own then to 1U then back to KL. Damn proud of myself and of Tubby ^^ Almost got lost on the way back to PJ though, took the wrong turn and ended up at Taman Maluri :P Somebody get me a GPS?
Okay.. when I said bubuy to them, I almost cried, homesick la apa lagi :(

Then celebrated Ah Bui and XiaoFatt's birthday! Had great food, great companion, great time..
Happy Birthday girls!!

Next Up:

Lotsa long weekend, love it.. but then more holidays mean more work during working days.. sheesh~

Birthday!! 3 December babies, let's find a nice place to celebrate. *I love birthdays ~ even if it's not mine*

Going to Malacca and Kluang this weekend. chicken rice balls here I come! I can't wait. the last trip I had was to Sabah (Genting not counted) So looking forward to this holiday.

A Christmas Carol + The Princess and the Frog die die also must watch!

Christmas!! Went to The Curve and the trees are up (well, just the tree minus the decoration)

New Year eve, any plan? I wanna see fireworks :(


I'm too lazy to type anymore, so that's it for now
Kthxbai~~

10 random things about me today

1. My eyes are closing... and it is only 4 pm! 2 more hours to go.. sometimes i feel bad for leaving the office when all my colleagues are still working...

2. Been working fairly hard for the past few days (harder than the previous weeks :P) and am longing to see some result sigh~ give me la.. little bit also can~

3. Freaking hot outside and i don't think my aircond is working hard enough to provide me cool air.

4. I'm beginning to feel hungry despite having zhap fan for lunch just now. Damn long didnt eat zhap fan la.. Been spending quite a lot on food lately, should start eating something economical. Hmm.. what to have for dinner?

5. Ahbi iz here! Went to Port Klang with Ahbui and Ahkak to get him, got lost on the way back and paid huge ass amount for toll. Then miraculously found our way to Sunway Pyramid ^^

6. I think my eyesight is getting worse. staring at the computer for the whole day, sheesh.. dahla my eyesight bad enough already.

7. I'm starting to drink plain milk ^^ because i found out Dutch lady is not really that bad after all.

9. My ass is flat from sitting on the chair for the entire day and my shoulder are stiff. i need a massage...

10. i miss people from home

Last night

Mum called last night, asked me why didn't I call home for more than 1 week.


I told her I was busy with work, that's bullshit.. If I have the time to hunt 2 malls for a dress, I have the time to call her. It's just that every single time I call, or mum calls, the topic will always revert to me being a teacher, signing for posting. I was told last night, many people at home were asking me about my "teaching career".


I am tired of this already. Again and again I was asked, and again and again I gave the same answer, yet, 5 seconds later, I will still be bombarded with the same question. Is it me, or there is some kind of communication breakdown here?


I told the friend the other day, one reason why I want to be away from home is to be away from all those pressure.



All I want is a little encouragement, words of support, a little pat saying "Well done girl!"
It's never good enough, isn't it? No matter what I do. I will only be good enough when I do it their way...


Are they disappointing me or the other way around, me disappointing them?



**********

A free bird leaps on the back of the wind
and floats downstream till the current ends
and dips his wing in the orange suns rays and dares to claim the sky.


But a bird that stalks down his narrow cage
can seldom see through his bars of rage
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing.


The caged bird sings with a fearful trill
of things unknown but longed for still
and his tune is heard on the distant hill
for the caged bird sings of freedom.


The free bird thinks of another breeze
and the trade winds soft through the sighing trees
and the fat worms waiting on a dawn-bright lawn and he names the sky his own.


But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams
his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing.


The caged bird sings with a fearful trill
of things unknown but longed for still
and his tune is heard on the distant hill
for the caged bird sings of freedom.

Another phase of my life

Started work yesterday. It's not that bad but I don't think it is that good either.
Didn't do much yesterday and today.. still on training..


Gosh.. 10.30pm and I'm sleepy.
See, that's the problem. When I work, I sleep damn early!

**yawns**

Goodnite!

Maybe

Bumped into V yesterday and had a long chat over 2 glasses of ice lemon tea. It's been such a long time since we last talked. Apparently, many things had happened over the past few months/ years. He is getting busier with business and work and I still hanging around aimlessly...
Lighhearted jokes turned to something more serious. And I poured everything out to him, almost bursting into tears (passerbys might think he just dumped me or something) and ask for his opinion (though he is not exactly the person to give good advice -__-)

Me: It's not as simple and easy as you think.
Him: Well, maybe it is not as difficult as you think. All it takes is hard work and determination. Surely you can survive rite?

Yeah.. he is not the first person that told me that. Angela said everything started out to be difficult at first. All it takes is a little hard work. You reap what you sow. Where there is a will, there is a way.

My mind flashed back to another friend M who once asked me "Lei em ngai tak geh, hai mai?"
losely translated into "you can't suffer/ live in difficult time/ work hard can you?"

Inhale and Exhale

Phew.. time to breathe...

Today off day coz was working last nite at Curtin Roadshow.

A little update bout myself.

Well, I've started my job as a manual labour at an OZNZ education centre. Life is hectic and boring at the same time. Hectic coz I have to wake up early in the morning before the sun rises, took a power shower, speed makeup, choke myself on a cup of coffee... u get the idea. Boring because if I'm at the office, there's not much I can do because there are many things I do not know yet. So I spend most of my time in office reading about OZNZ uni info. ** damn.. i so want to do my master oversea sigh*** Sometimes, we get to go outside for education fair which is quite fun because time passes faster that way. But the thing is I kinda give students this look
?_? when they ask me about which uni is good, what is so and so courses about bla bla bla..

This is how my everyday looks like:

5:50am- Awimbawe alarm wake me up from my peaceful slumber to the cold dawn of reality
6 am- shower and shit (i believe it is important to get rid of all the burden in me before i start the day with more burden) Come out from the shower, make myslef a cup of coffee and rush upstairs to change.
6: 20am- dry hair, make up, change
6: 35am- rush down for my already cold coffee. Read the newspaper. Start the car engine
6:45am- move my ass and get to work
6:45- 7:45- got stuck in the jam -__- If i'm lucky the jam is not so bad and I can reach the office around 7:30.
8am- 12pm- manual labour, staring into computer screen
12pm- 1pm- lunch yay go out eat, or tapau or eat sanwiches brought from home. The nearest coffee shops are all malay food sigh.. too lazy ot drive 5 minutes to the chinese shops. Lunch time is also time to bermukabuku.
1pm-5pm-back to manual labour and check the time every 10 minutes to see whether it is 5 yet. By 4:30 i get super excited and happy ^^
5pm- move the car from the parking lot and go through another 1 hour of jam or more.
7 pm- help my mom to cook a bit, eat dinner, clean up, bathe
9pm- went to my room and online a while.
10pm- climb onto bed, watch tv
10:30 pm.- sleep.

Geez my life is so fun isn't it -__-
Yeah.. I pratically leave before the sun is out and only came back when the sun sets. I hardly see the sun anymore. And by 10pm, i'm so sleepy already like baby like that. And my working time is from 8 to %5 Where got people start work at 8 wan? so early! Gosh.. if i become a teacher ma even earlier?!



Bobo wonders: Why is everyone so hype up about twitter?

Today

1. Weather like crazy these days. Freaking hot. I officially bathe like 5 times a day. (Water bill gonna shoot up like fireworks weeee~) Heard that haze in Klang valley real bad. Poor kawan kawan. Later I fedex some fresh air to you guys k. It was crazily hot just now so I went to take a bath and when I came out from the bathroom it was pouring cats and dogs O_o. Sheesh.. like a woman's mood liddat.

2. Cooked pasta for lunch! Again! Mushroom and Sausage Carbonara. I should seriously hook up with Italian. 3rd time having Italian food d this week. If pizza count la. Die, if I eat too much Italian food, I'll hate I then I won't go to Italiannies anymore??? Cannot!

3. I'm spending most of my time on FB now. FB quizzes are damn entertaining. If I'm not online then I'm probably a part time driver driving people around or a part time housewife cleaning the house.

4. Gonna start my inhumane manual labour next week. Cannot play play laze around faceboking and cooking pasta anymore. Sigh.. Working from 8am to 5pm. WTF have to wake up at 6am. About 1 hour to get ready and 1 hour to reach Pending. The thought of it makes me wanna pengsan. Somemore no eatery near the place :( Eat what wor during lunch time?

5. Why are my boxes not here yet? Why oh why? All my stuffs are inside. I need my shoes, my bags and clothes!! Aiyo... Can't afford to buy new ones la. Must save!!! Die Die oso cannot spend on unnecessary things hmph.

6. My hair super long already. Got split ends here and there. I want to cut it. And dye it. Eh.. but have to save money:( how ar?

7. I'm craving Korean food now.

8. Went to the mall yesterday and saw some gorgeous clothes.. sigh.. must tahan, must MUST!!!!

9. That's all.

A reminder

May brooks and trees and singing hills,
join in the chorus too.
And every gentle wind that blows,
send happiness to you.

It may seem abrubt that I send a blessing message to you,
Just want to tell you things I am learning from the elders.

Take your time to think what you want, what exactly you want to do in your life.
Don't rush in making decision, because it is something you will be working on in a long, long, long time in the future,
Don't campare your life to others. It is your very own life.
Don't be afraid to talk to anyone you wish to. You will be surprised to know they actually understand.
And always remember that in some way or other, you are somebody's angel even if you do not know it.

Yesterday

Was talking to my mum last nite while she was preparing dinner.
Told her that I am waiting for a reply from a company in Bandar Utama that offers 3k.
Then she said "if u can get it, go work there la."

^^ :D :) :> yeehaa yipee..

But that is only my mum's opinion, have yet to ask my dad.

Now, the only thing to do is pray that they will call me, pray that I get the job and pray that dad lets me go back to PJ.

Was offered a freaking 1200 from a company in kuching. Wahlieu, damn high man the pay WTF! Monday to Frday office hour, Saturday half day, Sunday off, might hve rooster to jaga at night because classes are held at night. Gosh.. seems like a lot of work for just 1200
I was told that I have to be jack of all trades if i'm employed. Sigh.. so guys worth it or not?

Donno whether I should reject it and wait for another opportunity.

Maybe I'v been living in Kl for so long that I tend to look down on Kuching in term of salary and opportunities.
I can't seem to stop myself from comparing the jobs here with the ones in Pj and K
which is driving me crazy!

Tell me

Tell me how to decide when you weren't given a choice in the first place...
Tell me what to do when everything has been planned and decided for you...
Tell me what to say when everything I said will not be heard...
Tell me.. because I wasn't given a choice...

I trusted, I believed,
I'm stupid for trusting and believing.

When the boss isn't around

we camwhored in the shop!
saw this really cute furry halo on the head of a really cute furry teddy bear so we.....

Juayn


ShuKim


"Aunty at pasar who sells chicken", said Juaynna
*I was dressed in a simple spaghetti strap and home shorts when I was asked to stay and work, so u can't blame me :(
When we got bored playing with the furry halo, we camwhore somemore






Nah.. Aunty again...
Going back to Kuching for a few days so I figured I should bring back some of my clothes and stuffs.
Gonna bring back BoBo Mochacinno Christensen Liew Mei Ying and Dora.
Decided to pack Dora into the luggage and hand held BoBo because Angela said,
" walking around with a teddy bear looks better than walking around with a Doraemon".
Yeah I guess.. It's embarassing enough to walk around with a bear, what more to say a Doraemon..
but I still love the Doraemon nonetheless!!!! ***defensively in case the people who gave me the Doraemon read this :P **



Well, he looks happy to be in there
'till next time...

"Something has happened. What is it?"
-Blanche DuBois, A Streetcar Named Desire-


I wish I can be as ignorant as I want, but I can't...
I wish I know, but I don't...
I wish I can, but I can't...

So, I did it..

So I did it....
I submitted my forms and applied to become a teacher..
It took me quite some time to finally decide to do this.
No doubt, part of me wants to be a teacher, good pay, lotsa holidays... but i guess one reason is my parents.. disappointing them will break not only their hearts but mine too..


Since young, whenever i have to fill details in borang or write a "My Ambition" essay, the word "teacher" never appeared in it. To a 12 year old me, being a teacher means I have to succumb to school hours (waking up at the ungodly hours and start work before the sun is even out?!) and the un-glam world of education.
Now, almost a quarter of a century old, I still think it is torturing to wake up before the sun rises and yes i still think a a teacher profession is very the un-glamorous -__-

Since young, people has been telling me "Aiya ah-girl, become teacher veli good, salali veli high, many holiday, buy car buy house veli cip" And i will feign interest and give them the u-huh, smile, nods that they want to see..

What happened? What happened to the girl who didn't want to become a teacher? What happened to the girl who wanted to achieve more? I can't find her anymore...
.
.
.
.
.

Life has been very hectic and busy lately.. which in a way is good i would say. Well, no time for me to sit down, think and cry over how depressed i am, how confused i am...
It is already the mid of march.. the Ides of March.. hmm bad vibes? Julius Caesar was assasinated on this day.. supposed it will be an unlucky day?

It's been a while since i last update..

I've been spending so much time with my laptop i might as well marry my laptop -__-

anyway, i'm pretty free this weekend.. so i shall spend my weekend doing whatever i like.. read, watch movie, hibernating...


Oh ya, i've just remembered the tagging thing ...
What's the title ar?
i think it is 25 random things about yourself.. since i'm so free now, i shall let u know more about myself..

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

and...
.
.

Lo and behold... 25 things you should know about me...

1. I usually respond to names like AhBle, Bobo, Ahbo, Ah Jin, Ah Girl, Mabo and of course, my real name Mable.

2. I love to read and i can read super fast.. (i swear i didn't just turn the pages and pretend to be reading, i swear... cross my heart...)

3. I'm still single and available :P

4. I've been wearing specs since i was 11 years old, then when i grew up, i became very vain so i started wearing contact lens. No, i'm not gonna tell u my degree.. if u wanna know, ask my optometrist



5. I have lot's of mirrors.. various sizes and colours.. got black one, got pink one, got chocolate one (no, not brown. it IS CHOCOLATE BAR), furry one.

6. I'm the only daughter in my family.. i have only one brother.. i've always wanted a sister.

8. I love kids, no, correction, i love babies (but when they turn 7 years old.. i dont like them anymore..) but i think giving birth is a very scary thing.

9. I cried when my shihtzu died when i was 10. She was tangled around the neck by the lash.. (may u rest in peace, Mickey)

10. I'm very scared of big dogs. When i was very young, i was chased by my uncle's dog (neh.. the long long short short kinda dog, i call it hotdog) and knocked my head/ face at the edge of a cabinet and now i have a small scar on my left brow. My mum said i was a little taller, i would have hit my eyes instead.. and probably go blind.

11. I always have reoccuring dreams that i'm going back to school. In my dreams, i will be searching my my school uniform to get ready to go to school.

12. I like nail polish but i cant stand putting them on my fingernails coz then i feel that my nails can't grow.

13. I don't smoke although a lot of my friends smoke. I don't really drink. I can get tipsy very easily.

14. I can speak, understand chinese but i can't read or write in chinese.

15. I cry very very very very easily.... If i tell u something emotional about myself, i can't guarantee u that i will not break into tears.

16. My all time favourite song is Careless Whisper (so damn sexy la that song )

17. When i was young, i used to go to my grandparents house coz both my parents are working.. I love it there.. It is a very big house with very large garden. I used to squat at the longkang and look at the tadpoles but never had the nerve to catch them. And i will pick this thing from the pokok sirih and when u blow it, there will be whistling sound. And in the afternoon, i will sit with my popo and watched her play "colour cards" with her friends.

18. I miss my popo. she passed away due to kidney dysfuction when i was in form 2. It was the second day of CNY when we all went to her house. Around evening, my aunts, uncles and mum sensed that something was wrong with popo so they called the ambulance. While some of them followed popo to the hospital, one of my uncle sent us (the kids) home. I remember when i reached home, I was so scared that i will lose popo that i knelt and bow infront of the Buddha statue at home and pray that popo will be allright and return home with us ........ she didn't.....

19. I am one of the only two female grandchildren in my maternal family. the rest are all boys...


20. I find it very hard to trust people.


21. Tall guys in formal clothing and suits and tie never fail to catch my attention. (not tuxedo please..... like penguin liddat).


22. I'm not at all picky when it comes to food.. except if it is really inedible.


23. I love honey dew and rock melon. I like their scent.


24. I dislike people who break their promise. If u can't do it, then don't promise it.


25. I don't like to be dissappointed. So, i never anticipate anything. I just don't want the feeling of falling when what u anticipate didn't come true.

Fying off

again..
When I was young, I used to love flying in planes. School holidays were the best coz we get to go somewhere for the holiday. I loved the feeling of taking off, the clouds, the stars at night...
But now, I hate flying. I hate it because everytime I fly, I'm leaving people I love dearly. For the past few years, I can feel heaviness in my heart during take off and I often find myself fighting back the urge to cry. (Yeah, I admit that I am a crybaby)

I'll be leaving Kuching tonight and go back my student life. One week of fun, food and fooling around is over. Loads of stuff are waiting to be completed in PJ. I had fun for the past one week- spending time with my little ol family, going out with friends whom I haven't seen for quite some time and talk till the cows come home.

I really enjoyed my 1 week at home. (if I didn't come back, goodness knows what's going to happen to me sigh)
