i'm back

touchdown on the land of borneo about 10am...yuhuuu~~felt so good to be back...& thinking i'm not going to think about work for 15days!!! (agaagaga)

as usual, my parents was there picking me up...from airport, we straight to ---- Pending (is a place name, not in iban which means "ear / telinga" & not in english as in...pending) .... to meet MV Doulos ( sort of like bookshop on the water~~) the last time the ship arrive kuching was 7 years ago...still remember some of the volunters of the ship visits our church for a fellowship. The volunters are from various countries all around the world...i'm glad & thankful having the chance to visit it again (as this will be the last for MV Doulos to visit...soon they will sold the ship & buy bigger one...) ya...better to...as it can easily see in the ship, sudah tua liao....patut pencen already...Basically the bookshops sells christian books - which is goody for me to search for some books for children ministry...The pics of the visit will come up soon...hvt transfer the file yet....

while this morning (sunday)...having hard time (as usual) to wake up around 5am....have to drag myself to the bathroom. Today, dengan bangganya i've attend 3 different services in 3 languages-> 6:40am - english; 8:30am - bm & 3pm - iban. But feel quite upset with 8:30am service though, the songs it seems like just to fill up the silent moment...self preparation in serving the Lord is important...it doesn't how good you are in singing / preaching / dancing, if without self preparation all that you do will be sia-sia (waste)...i've been to one of christian concery....but if the person is not well prepared spiritually, we as the listner / audience could not felt the power of the songs (no feeling)...hmmmm....being the frontliner in the church, is not about glamour, fame / being well known by the congregation, you have been given big responsibility by God to guide & bringing all the congreration to felt the presence of God...quite sad sometime when seeing some members take things for granted.

could not make it

Yesterday evening, my plan after work was to attend the christmas party @ st mary...but....

Yesterday was totally HURU-HARA day for me @ work.
1st- the person who i need to get info / confirmation / data was on leave!!! in a midst of urgency to meet the timeline for his own unit's task & he's ON-LEAVE!! - really having tough time of getting things done the best which i could do...but thank God, bos was around & got my colleague to share/lepas my "geram" tru YM...kekeke

2nd - was doing AC yesterday with several states / division, was totally a disaster as well...most of the audience didn't mute their line...so it was so noisy...& Thank God again, there's some1 from AC team who assist me...But honestly they should have a team to assits us in AC cos it is difficult to control all the calls in...

3rd - was trying to get Big Bos's signature...but as there's some amendment needs to be done on the letter...so couldn't proceed with printing..anyway, i can't proceed / delivered it on time either as "the person" was ON LEAVE!!

4th - and then, was trying my best to settle all tasks before i left for my year end holidays (erm...) kasian to my bos & colleague who have to follow up those tasks for me la...then when i'm done, notice the time is 8++pm...hmm for sure i won't be able to reach church on time...plus that night, i'm stay over @ church member's house as we going to the airport together early in the morning, so...thinking that i better settle my packing & luggage lerrr....

so overall, i could not make it to meet my housemates, my church frens (which was suppose to meet at church that evening)...

oh ya...i've read a verse which is good to be share with all.....
"Let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God" James : 19-20

hmmm...complaint saja2

hmmm...what do you feel what each time /each event / each tiny winy things, people complaint.complaint.complaint....eventhough it is not related to you at all, but when you keep on hearing them keep on complaining (in x positive way)...what do you feel?!?

i felt fed up which this type of attitude...they feel as if they are very good & keep on complaining at the end of the day, they will voice out their unsatisfaction (99.98% they will voice out their unsatisfaction over ANYTHING!)...most of the time, i'm just keep quite & listening (dalam hati > how i wished i know how to speak out to "sedarkan" awake them of what they did)...only what they do, then they comment good things about themselves. Really makes me uncomfortable for me to work / to do any activities with them...as (of course) i don't want by the end of the day, they complaining la pulak. *Makin lama makin alergic *

why not look at things positively...rather than complaining & not thinking of ways to improved it (macam la if they do it, they would do it better...without any mistakes)...alamak...now i pulak yg complaint...

----------------------------more than 1 hour later---------------------------------------

teringat a few weeks before, i did asked a person, how to deal with this type of complainer cum egoist?
She says : do nothing, say nothing...eventually they will keep on complaining anyway....
after much thinking ..."ya...betul juga"

carolling~~~

Yesterday (Sunday)...was helping with the sunday school...after the lesson, the kids having tamborine dancing class which was taught by "auntie Mary"...Here's some of the pic...so far, the kids still having a lil problem to memorise the steps...but it will be ok for the christmas performance.












after the church, basically we don't have much of outing but straight away back home after lunch. As we need to prepare for carolling especially food!!!!! Knowing that, our friends are godo OT!!! oppss...but its true

















































lelak (tired) & ngantuk (sleepy)

It has been tiring weekend for me ... non-stop activities & yet i hvt finished up my shopping list (huh~~)

my last post mention that i'm going to KLCC PC Fair...yes! i did...me & my colleague together went to pcfair...spent about 3 hours @ the fair.

So what i got? i unintentionly "ter"bought digital camera - was not in my plan at all...as my innoncent purpose to visit the pcfair is to survey the laptop prices...but terbeli pulak. So i bought SAMSUNG camera, 4gb memory card...for the price of RM599 (honestly, i'm not sure whether the price is consider worth it or not) but beli saja la...just for the sack of having something for self compliment (kononnya la).












oh ya...this year KLCC christmas tree nice juga with all those big boxes under the tree...













we depart from KLCC about 10:30pm...our initial plan was having a dinner @ one of the restaurant...but after bought something which was beyond our plan, tak jadi makan kat restaurant. (budget!!)

The next morning (saturday)...woke up around 8am...& then starts to clean up the house with other housemates...& around 11:30am, we went out ---> pergi central market to have our lunch with rose, val & hillary....a new place & i name the place as Uncle Lorong (which claim by my housemates that their chicken rice taste really nice)...nah...see this!!












this is why i nickname the uncle as uncle lorong...as the place located at lorong...but overall still ok la (not seeing any mouse..yet?)
Free flow of chinese tea
at 1st, i thought the place where my housemates bringing us, would be better environment then uncle bongkok (which is from next 2 shops)...mana tau the surrounding not so eye-pleasant la...but i'm ok jer...i'm not a complainer...Overall, i tak sakit perut after having lunch there

So after our lunch, we went our separate way, the 4 of us (rose, hilary, val & me) we went to Kedai Kasut Asia Shoes @ jalan ipoh. This place was introduce by Val, he says that the place sales mostly guy's shoes at almost warehouse price...& after that, we went to Maju Junction & Sogo...that late evening, meet my bro & easter @ Uni LRT & together (gether lah) balik rumah...
That nite, we're watching sehati berdansa & while watching, there's seems like some band playing & singing songs (mostly oldies) non-stop...and then..tiba-tiba~~~"balingan pata-pata....goyang pica-pica..."
alamak..lagu poco-poco la pulak...so apa lagi this 2 budak...start dance poco-poco la at the living room...see this:



alahai~~

3. Spring clean the house -> will having carolling this sunday eve
4. Hangout

bye~~~

dinner date with Uni Mates

Kelam kabutnya yesterday....while i was rushing to LRT...i notice that i forgot to bring my purse *left it @ office*! Have the thought of just left it behind...but thinking about my important document in it *haih..better don't take the risk*...so went back to the office. What a waste of time

4 of us...one of them was my ex-housemate while the rest of the geng was my ex-housemate's course mates (confusing?)

So, that night we went to Niu Ze Xui @ PJ...*my 1st time though*

We went to a restaurant call "FULLHOUSE"...very unique place for a dine...the wall are all white in color, even the deco in the restaurant are almost white / using pastel color...their menu catalog was so cute...with all those cartoons cutely place on each page...i was so fascinate with the cartoons till not looking drilling down on the food / drink at all...The choice of food & beverage? tak banyak...almost similar to other cafe / restaurant.

so my choice of menu -> breaded chicken chop + mango and then something mango drink...

So here are some of the pictures taken yesterday....






















Didn't took much pic that night...as i was extremely hungry eating....

So after lunch, the 4 of us have a stroll along the Nie Ze Xui...there's a lot of stall...but yet fully operate. Most of the stalls are not really guarded (wondering where's the sales assistant??)

Here 2 of the picture that i took along the way....






and after "round about stroll" hehe...cos some of the stall we pass by a few times. We decides to "yam cha"...Somewhere at SS2...can't really recall the cafe name....& from there, that's the end of our nite out.
note: Totally forgot to inform my housemates that i tak balik awal...till my roomate called me up where am i...
alamak...betul2 sorry

Nite out with "lunch mates" keke

Yesterday, 3 of us (the lunch mates) decides to watch movie "Bolt" - wished to watch something relaxing after work... after having some *hiccup* in the office, we finally out from the office about 6pm. I was worried though, takut tak sempat reach Mid Valley but Thank God it only took about 15 minutes to reach there + about 10 minutes to find a parking space *wat do you expect of school holidays*


What's up with " Bolt" ?
it is about a dog *puppy* who thinks he has super power *superpower bark / super power zoom zoom / super power lazer vision* i think that's all...but Bolt has 2 cute pal namely fat cute hamster & a cat (alamak...tak ingat nama)...So the puppy actually not knowing that it was set up whereby the human make things so real that the puppy really thought it has all the superpower! *ahaks...kena tipu*...so at the end, it was the cat who awaken the puppy of the real world while the hamster is the confident booster for Bolt. Overall, i think what makes some part of the movie look nice, was i can't wait to see the hamster rather than the puppy Bolt...haaaa so cute / so confident + positive attitude / fearless (the hamster save the movie)....so i'm gonna give the movie rate of 3.25 out of 5 star la.

so after the movie, accompany one of the friend to buy a present. Then...jalan-jalan cari makan...can't decide what to eat actually...after about 10 minutes later, we reached a place called "canton-i Restaurant"....look fancy from the outside though...as decides to have dinner less than RM20...seems like the price is still ok la (pandai2 la choose)....overall, the interior was nice...with light furniture color & striking magenta painted wall + nice white chinese flower craft wall deco + big round tanglungs at the side + artificial small bamboo shoots at one corner...(haih)..i know i'm not good at describing so here are some photo that i took ...


Canton-i








part of the enterior











i order this...hawaian passion fruit + jasmin tea (RM8*)







i order wantan mee + pork leg + siu kaw
