(The uni is an Australian uni ma...) Okay, there were so many things happened over the last 3 months and some yet to be resolved but I will not drain you with the EMO stuffs cos <a href="http://kyspeaks.com/">KY </a>told me this - <em>“You must fill people around you with JOY!”</em>.<br /><br />Here is the JOY (well, my own joy)… After finishing my 1st semester, I called up my ex-boss to check if there is any possibility to work with him again or at least 3 months with the agency. Good enough, Mr. F, one of my colleagues contacted me and I agreed to meet up with him for a short discussion without second thought.<br /><br />To be exact, 1st Dec 2008 (Monday) @ 10:30am, Mr. A called up when yours truly was still enjoying her beauty sleep. Here’s the conversation…<br /><br /><em>Mr. A: Morning, WAH…! still sleeping ah?!<br />Me: Yeah, I have nothing better to do and was out last night with my friends…<br />Mr. A: Okay, very quick one… I need your particulars - Full name and I/C.<br />Me: Aiyo Mr. A, you can check all these with HR ma…<br />Mr. A: Aiyo…. Give me, give me… faster and easier ma… QUICK!<br />Me: *spelling out my full name*<br />Mr. A: I/C?<br />Me: 871013 - ** - ****<br />Mr. A: Okay, you get ready, maybe you will need to start work on next Monday, report to Mr S. Okay?!<br />Me: Oh okay… *still blur*<br />Mr. A: Thanks *hung up*<br /></em><br />I wanted to go back to sleep but couldn’t and went online. Once I logged in my MSN, message popped up, it was Mr. S.<br /><br /><em>Mr. S: <strong>Report yourself at office 9am SHAPR!<br /></strong>Me: huh?! For wat?<br />Mr. S: work la! So see ya tmr, gotta rush out some stuff. Bye!<br /></em><br />I stoned for awhile!!! I’m lucky (of course, it is also my hardwork)! A better word would be – <strong>EXCITED</strong>! Everything just happened so fast! After all, I thought it will be a good way to end the year by getting the 3 months freelance job in my ex-agency and everything started off well. My first day at work was till 12am already…<br /><br />Some questions I got from people around me: -<br /><br /><strong>Q: Why you love your job? </strong><br /><strong>Q: Why do you want to work in this industry? And it is so tiring and long hours… </strong><br /><strong>Q: Are you a workaholic?</strong><br /><br /><strong>A:</strong> Actually, I’ve the love and hate feeling for my job or this industry. I love it and I will come back to this industry in future. There are 2 main reasons:<br />1. I’m learning everyday and being exposed to different job tasks everyday – my curiosity.<br />2. Whenever projects/ tasks are done, I felt satisfied after the putting in my precious time and energy. It gives me the sense of achievement and be more independent – my self-esteem.<br />Workaholic?! Erm… some of you may feel that I am one… but I don’t think so! I believed (and I still do) that it’s my passion for this industry that keep me go on, that’s also why some times I tend to forget about time!!<br /><br /><strong>Q:</strong> <strong>Why do you want to go back to work instead of you can enjoy your 3 months long holiday? </strong><br /><strong>Q:Why don’t you just go for holiday? Why work? </strong><br /><br /><strong>A:</strong> Just like what I’ve mentioned above… I enjoy working in this industry.<br />Holiday?! No money, no holiday… Simple! I’m not born rich!!<br />Plus I don’t like to go for holiday with my parents’ money. I think they should go for their holiday themselves and enjoy it. I prefer to earn myself and pay for it. This will make me enjoy it even more and I will feel satisfy and it’s all my effort and it’s PRICELESS!<br />The reasons why I want to work are very simple:-<br /><ol><li>My holiday is 3 months long.</li><li>To travel for 3 months, I don’t have that money. </li><li>I don’t want to waste my time. </li><li>I can’t just sit and do nothing but just online and watch TV! You’ll get bored too! </li><li>If I go on holiday, I will not stop eating at home! My mum and aunt will stuff me with food! Breakfast, Lunch, Tea, Dinner, Supper… when I get up at 2pm, I have to finish my breakfast and lunch then continues with tea…! 3 weeks had added 5kg to me, 3 months..?! </li></ol><p>Get what I mean now?!<br /><br />Until today, I’ve only exact 2 weeks left in this agency (I’ll be back to uni again in March)… I’ve always been learning and thanks to the people around me who have been guiding and teaching me in different "ways"... </p>Rachyinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15160903202131828472noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193724625060049283.post-8980321922590390982008-10-31T04:37:00.003+08:002008-10-31T06:12:55.923+08:00Yes, I'm writing!<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: verdana;">Well, main reason why I didn't update for so long is because - I'm too lazy and I have nothing to write about. Since I can't really sleep now (it is 4.38 am) might as well update you a lil bout myself.<br /><br />I’ve actually stayed in this <st1:city st="on"><st1:place st="on">new city</st1:place></st1:city> for 1 year and 3 months… It wasn’t easy in the beginning but I am very glad that the people (especially de noobs) I know here helped to make life much easier. I can still remember, last year’s birthday was very quiet (and lonely) as I was still new here. I was spending time alone at home watching dvd (it is still not working well till today) in the dark! However, it is totally different this year! I'm officially 21 and had a small BBQ party at home with some of my closest friends here. </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: verdana;">What happened b4 the party was Mama Tortoise said: “Make sure you don’t have any alcohol ya?!” I was a lil worried too as Papa Tortoise will be coming too but later on I decided to talk to him bout it and glad that he is cool with it. Papa Tortoise was here and he drank with all of us! =) During the party, we talked and things got a lil emo (ya, I know some of you saw me crying like a baby!). What I can say is our family have been through a lot these years. <span style=""> </span></p> <p style="font-weight: bold; font-family: verdana;" class="MsoNormal">A small note to <span style="color: rgb(0, 102, 0);">Papa Tortoise</span>:</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; font-family: verdana;" align="center"><span style="font-style: italic;">"You're always my Hero and you will always be..."</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"> Nothing can be compared to what you have sacrificed and done for me.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"> Nothing can repay what you've gotten for me,</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"> I can only say Thank You and I love you so much...</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"> I hope I'll do you proud ONE day!</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"> You're always my King and I'm your lil princess =)</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"> Lots of love, Your girl =)</span><o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: verdana;"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p style="font-weight: bold; font-family: verdana;" class="MsoNormal">Another note to <a href="http://kyspeaks.com/">KY</a>, <a href="http://suanie.net/">Suanie</a>, <a href="http://kimberlycun.com/">my slow-mo,</a> <a href="http://shaolintiger.com/">ST</a>, SpongeFox:</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; font-style: italic; font-family: verdana;" align="center">You guys really look after me like a younger sister…</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; font-style: italic; font-family: verdana;" align="center">I really appreciate it very much, Thanks!</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; font-style: italic; font-family: verdana;" align="center">Knowing all of you is a special gift from god.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; font-style: italic; font-family: verdana;" align="center">Each of you has filled me with more laughter, fun, food etc. without fail!</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; font-style: italic; font-family: verdana;" align="center">Haha.. you guys also enjoy making fun of me!</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; font-style: italic; font-family: verdana;" align="center">(I know I’m slow and blur at times…)</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; font-style: italic; font-family: verdana;" align="center">With love, Kura-Kura <3</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; font-family: verdana;" align="center"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p style="font-family: verdana;" class="MsoNormal">For others, if I didn’t mention your names here, it doesn’t mean that I don’t love you guys!

Never mind... I've more to bitch about!!!<br /><br />4) After going to the right class, the lecturer just look at us like 1 big group of useless students cos she tought that we skipped her class purposely!!<br /><br />5) We were all shocked to know that <span style="font-weight: bold;">the class actually started 1 week earlier</span> without us knowing?! Very Good! <span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">*kiss my ass!*</span></span><br /><br />6) So we practically <span style="font-weight: bold;">missed 1st lecture + 45 mins of 2nd lecture</span>!!!!<br /><br />7)When we all explained it to her, she just said <span style="font-style: italic;">"OH, I DON'T KNOW ABOUT ALL THIS! Well nvm, let's continue with the class... but for you people who came late, what is over is over....where was I just now?!" </span><br /><br />8) Without even explain to us what she was doing or what we are about to learn... she just continued her lecturer like we never exist!<br /><br />9) My programme is a<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"> </span><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"><u>100% assignment based programme </u></span>(writen in the brochure & was repeated again and again) but we were all told that <span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 204, 0);"><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">we will need to sit for EXAM</span> </span>which carries 50% of our overall score!<br /><br />How can this be?! RIGHT?!<br />Left us all in the dark!<br />DAMN IT! SO fucked up!<br />OMG...THIS FUCKING MADE ME STRESSED UP!<br />I'm so pissed with such situation on MY FIRST DAY!<br /><br />So what you think bout this <span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">"said-to-be a prestigious" college</span>??<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">P/S:<span style="font-weight: bold;"> We can't get any replacement class for the lecture we missed!! </span></span>Rachyinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15160903202131828472noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193724625060049283.post-19192226890771206292008-08-07T16:46:00.005+08:002008-08-07T17:38:51.655+08:00Orientation DayBefore you start reading and trying to judge what I'm gonna tell you is right or wrong... I'll give you 1 pretty sentence - <span style="font-weight: bold;">"KISS MY ASS, DARLING!"</span><br /><br />Okay, as some of you may know that I've quit my job and will be furthering my studies. Here is what happened when on my very first day when I enter the college for <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-weight: bold;">Orientation</span>... Can you imagine that you were informed to attend it at 8am for it but in actual they are starting it only at 930am? To be fair, the registration started at 830am... <span style="font-weight: bold;">BUT WHY TELL ME 8am?!</span> Bunch of IDIOTS! YOU MADE ME WOKE UP AT 630am for this SHIT!<br /><br /><span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Never mind</span>, I went to have breakfast...after going back there, I saw most of the students have a student kit with them. So, I went over to the counter and ask if I can have mine too... The lady asked for my course payment receipt. I don't have it but I told her "<span style="font-style: italic;">Miss, I've already made my payment much earlier and why can't I get mine?" "No, you need to show us your original receipt,"</span> she replied. Then, I told her that <span style="font-style: italic;">"I have the receipt number and she could just check at the computer system so I can get it."</span> She replied back the same thing <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">"No, you need to show us your original receipt."</span><br /><br />Before the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">explosion</span> starts, I decided to sit back at my place...! Maybe I'll wait till dad pass me the receipt then <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">maybe</span> I'll set a fire to the admin counter instead! Wat do you think?? Just for 1 piece of paper, I didn't get to collect my student kit and waited for another 1 hr for them to kick start some boring shit.DAMN!! Okay, <span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">ANGER</span> aside... It will be better, I told myself.<br /><br />After awhile things eventually turned out to be better as I met Karen (ex-intern in my ex company) and found out that she will be in the same programme as me. I went over to say Hi and she introduced me to some of her friends (<span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 0);"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Jackqie</span></span>, <span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 0);"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Behonce</span></span>, <span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);">Audrey</span>, <span style="color: rgb(51, 255, 51);">Denise</span>, <span style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">Paul</span>, <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">Darren</span>...) Lucky me! :) Yes, They are a bunch of helpful peeps! During lunch break, other new students went along with the campus tour but I didn't. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Haha</span>... cos of <span style="font-weight: bold;">HUNGER!</span> So, we sat down and started talking while having lunch. These new friends actually made me feel better in this whole new environment.<br /><br />I'll cut it short... We went back to the Orientation again, got our Student ID and timetable so time to say bye bye cos I didn't want to be <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">stucked</span> there for another 2 hrs' Team Building. It's <span style="color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-weight: bold;">BORING</span> and I'm sleepy! Know why I say my new friends are helpful?! Before I left, Karen came over and asked "Hey, how are you going home?" I told her I'll be taking the public transport. So, she told me to wait for <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Jackqie</span> to come first cos she and Darren are familiar with it so maybe all of us can go home together. See, Darren and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">Jackqie</span> told me which exact bus to take, where it will stop and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">bla</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">bla</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">bla</span>... It really made travelling to college by public transport a <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10">lil</span> easier for me. So, the day ended well, discard the morning session!<br /><br /><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11">Haha</span>... all of us skip the next day Orientation after feeling bit tortured to sit there for hours listening to talks. I don't want to wake up so early too! =)<br /><br />Stay tune... more bitching stories are on their way! <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12">Mwahhh</span>... <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13">xoxo</span>!<br /><br /> <span style="font-weight: bold;">UPDATE::</span>I just dun bloody understand what's the computer system for in such a college!! So not efficient!

Kick start my career in an agency / company and achieve what I want in life? or just go on like everybody else like "You will have to work for the rest of your life".<br /><br />Well, long way to go... I dun wanna think about it anymore now because until the end of today, I'm still a happy and lucky girl cos I know there I will always have people who really cares for me.<br /><ol><li>Mummy msged me and give me the support and encourage me...

I attended the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Hennessy Artistry Tour 2008 at Aloha</span> last Saturday, 31st May. This is the 2nd Hennessy Artistry Global Tour I went in Year 2008, this event was previously held at Zouk on 18th April. Thanks for the VIP invites from <a href="http://sansformality.blogspot.com/">Nicholas</a> of <a href="http://www.nuffnang.com/">Nuffnang</a>! All the noobs had fun there!<br /><br />On that night, they had Pamela (from <a href="http://amazing-race-asia.axn-asia.com/season2/teams/pam-van/">Amazing Race Asia Season 2</a>) as MC of the night. Of course, PointBlanc was first to kick of the party followed by Bangkok Invaders and VJ Callen. Personally, Bangkok Invaders was my favourite of the night <span style="font-size:85%;">(I still have a lil support for the locals!)</span>. They really rock!!! A little about my last visit to Bangkok, I was there when Bangkok Invaders was performing at this club called Route66, RCA! I enjoyed it so much... like Happy Feet?! Hahaha... It just like adrenaline rush, suddenly you became so hyperactive and can't stop moving!!<br /><br />Other than the performance, of course there were whole bunch of us there together up at the 3rd floor enjoying the free flow Hennessy City Cocktails - Miami, Shanghai, Paris, Moscow. Here are the pictures from various people! Enjoy!<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/76812820@N00/2547045309/" title="n577096852_863575_7737 by rachelhaw, on Flickr"><img style="width: 447px; height: 337px;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3154/2547045309_c868e08758.jpg" alt="n577096852_863575_7737" /></a><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://mikeyip.com/">Michael</a>, Steph, <a href="http://kyspeaks.com/">KY,</a> Me, Steph Kok, <a href="http://simonseow.blogspot.com/">Simon</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/76812820@N00/2547866912/" title="n517238716_611745_3133 by rachelhaw, on Flickr"><img style="width: 454px; height: 343px;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3030/2547866912_9933abe755.jpg" alt="n517238716_611745_3133" /></a><br />Us with PointBlanc<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/76812820@N00/2547867170/" title="n733367066_836463_7652 by rachelhaw, on Flickr"><img style="width: 452px; height: 342px;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3164/2547867170_31a088d03a.jpg" alt="n733367066_836463_7652" /></a><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Me, KY, Nicholas, Dree<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/76812820@N00/2547045145/" title="n517238716_611701_6418 by rachelhaw, on Flickr"><img style="width: 453px; height: 341px;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3156/2547045145_1f0af19e33.jpg" alt="n517238716_611701_6418" /></a><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Camwhores with Fugly Ugly faces :)<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/76812820@N00/2547866678/" title="n577096852_863589_2360 by rachelhaw, on Flickr"><img style="width: 464px; height: 349px;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3272/2547866678_d6b034ce98.jpg" alt="n577096852_863589_2360" /></a><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"> Me, Nicholas & Steph + Michael de <span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">Guang Kong</span> <span style="font-size:85%;">(super red face) </span>behind!! ;)<br /><div style="text-align: left;"><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">UPDATE::<br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:85%;" >** A reminder from KY, Thanks!</span><br /><br /></span>On that night, since it was a free flow of course all of us enjoyed it to the fullest...

So many things happened together but now I feel a lil bit better after a trip to Pahang with the n00Bs and went back to hometown *home sweet home* for my weekend.</p> <p>Previously, all my n00bs and I were planning for a day trip to somewhere near just to chill during May 1st, Labour Day since our Phuket trip is no longer on. Few week before, <a href="http://www.suanie.net/" mce_href="http://www.suanie.net" target="_blank">Suanie</a> did suggest that all of us can make a trip to <a href="http://www.myelephants.org/" mce_href="http://www.myelephants.org/" target="_blank">Kuala Gandah's Elephant Sanctuary </a>(suggested by <a href="http://www.happyyen.webs.com/" mce_href="http://www.happyyen.webs.com/" target="_blank">Happy Yen</a> da happy hiking guide) however not much of the n00bs can make it so it was postponed till last Thursday.</p> <p>All of us woke up early and started our trip with Dim Sum nearby. A trip with these n00bs will never be boring, the fun and laughter just won't stop.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><img style="vertical-align: middle;" mce_style="vertical-align:middle;" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2050/2463930203_5338ba6b25.jpg" mce_src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2050/2463930203_5338ba6b25.jpg" alt="" height="375" width="500" /></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><i>N00bs makan Dim Sum with blurry face... ;)</i></p> <p style="text-align: center;" mce_style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" style="vertical-align: middle;" mce_style="vertical-align:middle;" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2112/2463931201_5f1cae89a4.jpg" mce_src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2112/2463931201_5f1cae89a4.jpg" alt="" height="500" width="281" /></p> <p style="text-align: center;" mce_style="text-align:center;"><i>Look at <a href="http://www.kyspeaks.com/" mce_href="http://www.kyspeaks.com">KY</a>'s n00b face!!

Okay, at least it was for me... All the n00bs got down and climb up to have a better view of the waterfall... The waterfall's flow was heavy and quick, there was a warning sign saying "DANGER!

It was a bit disappointing for not making it as the first 100 visitors else we could have the chance to ride and bath with the baby elephants! ! Since we were there already so might as well just walk around and have a look. We saw 2 baby elephants on our way to the performance site. Snap, snap a lil and Kim complaint about the hot weather. All the n00bs then go for refreshment (ice cream, drinks etc). What's amazing was we had music as our company as Suanie brought along her mini USB speaker. Other passerby were wondering where the music came from as we were singing ;D Haha... jealous and envy! It was really hot! After awhile we decided to skip the elephant show and moved on with Deerland. We will visit the elephants again next time since it's not too far away from KL. :D</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><img style="vertical-align: middle;" mce_style="vertical-align:middle;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3287/2464765510_c93b3b1570.jpg" mce_src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3287/2464765510_c93b3b1570.jpg" alt="" height="375" width="500" /></p><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><p style="text-align: center;"><i>The baby elephant stick out its trunk... for more attention? </i></p> <p style="text-align: center;" mce_style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" style="vertical-align: middle;" mce_style="vertical-align:middle;" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2072/2464764464_c51bb4f712.jpg" mce_src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2072/2464764464_c51bb4f712.jpg" alt="" height="500" width="375" /></p> <p style="text-align: center;" mce_style="text-align:center;"><i>Pre-performance actions?! or something else.... ;)</i></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><img style="vertical-align: middle;" mce_style="vertical-align:middle;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3006/2463933399_38f5baae67.jpg" mce_src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3006/2463933399_38f5baae67.jpg" alt="" height="375" width="500" /></p><div> </div><p style="text-align: center;"><i>The elephants doing their own things...</i></p> <p style="text-align: center;" mce_style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" style="vertical-align: middle;" mce_style="vertical-align:middle;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3040/2463932353_8442fcd922.jpg" mce_src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3040/2463932353_8442fcd922.jpg" alt="" height="500" width="281" /></p> <p style="text-align: center;" mce_style="text-align:center;"><i>All the n00bs who went...

Walking off after some ice cream :)</i></p> <p>So off we go to the Deerland nearby. There we saw some other animals other than deers. Started off with deer feeding (they eat sweet potatoes! didn't know that before). Then the hedgehog, it was only 3 months old according to our guide. We saw sugar gliders, some beautiful birds, Mr. Moose who don't give a damn bout us, rabbits, baby honey bear, ostriches etc. The guide asked to follow him to see Muda, the bigger honey bear as it's his makan-ing (feeding) time. Muda loves sweet keropok (crackers). He will just lay down and relax his meal. The guide allowed us to go near Muda and fed him. First thing most of the n00bs noticed was the bear has a tiny wiener!!!

My 1st trip oversea was so near yet passed the border of Malaysia, Hatyai! It was 1 week family trip there so all of us registered under 1 temporary group passport. Papa tortoise always tell us, <i>"IF you want to travel oversea, work hard and earn more money. You will get to go and you will enjoy it even more! cos you fight for wat you wish or like to do"</i></p> <p style="text-align: center;" mce_style="text-align:center;"><b>**********</b></p> <p>Due to the upcoming company trip to Bangkok, I will need 1 passport myself to take off with my fellow colleagues. So yesterday, I took a day off from work to visit the Malaysia Immigration Office. It was pretty tiring to get up at 6am as I had so much work to deal with till late night but at the same time I was a lil excited cos I CAN HAVE MY OWN PASSPORT!!! :D</p> <p>Previously, I told papa tortoise that I can do it on my own if he is not free but he insisted that I can't do it myself cos I'm still underage (got cheated.. cos legal age in Malaysia is 18!). A day before, I called up and asked papa tortoise to confirm and make sure he knows the way. Papa tortoise was so happy and told me that he could test out his new bought Nokia N95's GPS system and he answered full of confidence "sure, sure can reach 1! I'll just set my GPS."</p> <p style="text-align: center;" mce_style="text-align:center;"><b>**********</b></p> <p>Early in the morning, I gave papa tortoise a morning call so that we can go and leave early to avoid the jam. But why would it take from 8am to 4pm (- 1 hour lunch, -2 hours at Taylors' course enquiry) just to get a passport done after gov actually improved the services?! Interesting, funny yet stupid story... we were 3 hours on the road looking for the right way to the immigration office using Nokia N95's GPS System which almost lead to an argument!!!</p> <ol><li>My place isn't that far from Subang.</li><li>Maybe papa tortoise's GPS system is "sot sot" d n he messed up with it...</li><li>We are from the tortoise clan so it took us some time to understand the instructions, especially when it comes to the intersection part!</li><li>................</li></ol> <p>Yaya... We are tortoise!!!! After a while I gave up and said " WHY NOT WE JUST GO TO TAYLORS, park there AND TAKE A CAB?!" Okay, papa tortoise agreed but it's gonna cost us RM30!!!!! I think it's EXPENSIVE!!! So finally I called up my "savior - <a href="http://www.kyspeaks.com/" mce_href="http://www.kyspeaks.com" target="_blank">KY Jelly</a>" and he did direct papa tortoise to the place...</p> <h3 style="text-align: center;" mce_style="text-align:center;"><b>So, I'm PROUD to say that I HAVE A <u>MALAYSIAN</u> PASSPORT NOW!!!

I was pretty stressed out with the work in hand and I missed out the chance for some good food... :( Boohoo...</p> <p>Anyway, my colleague, Jimmy, came back with a pack of Jalan Alor Char Siew Fan. Knowing that I can eat a lot and I love food, not only he got me the juicy Char Siew but "Pak Cam Kai" de white steamed chicken. It's just me whenever I see food, I smile! :D It's also a treat from Mr. Jimmy... I offered to pay but he said is ok, he will treat me!

With it, it makes one a better person (from my point of view).</p> <p>Determination is another thing that push a person further...</p> <p>Just like me a baby tortoise, I always wonder why other animal can move so fast to hunt for their desire... Yes, no doubt that I'm a slow animal but I also know that with the strong determination I would be someone successful 1 day.</p> <p>There are so many things I really wanna achieve in life but you will get tired at one point and feel like giving up. We can't set our mind like wat human did to Robots...</p> <p>I feel that there is always reasons for us to work hard on something... yes, for our own benefits and own good. At this point, you maybe shouting and grumbling cos of the amount of work load, stress, tiredness etc... swear and wat so ever. Till the end of the day looking back wat we have achieved, you will feel good... okay, at least I do feel proud of myself.</p>Rachyinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15160903202131828472noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193724625060049283.post-44199149193491963062008-05-16T14:35:00.001+08:002008-05-16T14:35:40.110+08:00If you fall, get up again...<p>When I was just a lil tortoise, papa tortoise was always on my side. With his unlimited care, love and patience, I was pretty rebellious and love to take things for granted sometimes (grumble too much sometimes). As for mama tortoise, she was the scary MONSTER.</p> <p>I believed that many kids will have this kinda jealousy thought. Whenever Mama tortoise treats my tortoise brothers with special attention, naturally jealousy and hatred grew in me. I always questioned myself "why can't mama love me more?" and lots more. Years of battle and cold wars with mama tortoise, I always hope that she would stop and get tired of it.</p> <p>Now, I'm glad that I was brought up in papa tortoise's way. Since young, I was asked to do most of the things myself. Papa tortoise told me this before - <i>"If you fall, get up again. </i><i>Never look down yourself. </i><i>" </i>which is still fresh in mind. I may not be as brave as Hercules but I'm definitely braver than many ppl.</p> <p>To be Continue... Stay Tune!</p>Rachyinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15160903202131828472noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193724625060049283.post-4598227683923224092008-05-16T14:31:00.000+08:002008-05-16T14:34:49.228+08:00The Tortoise Land<p>Thinking back, I have few blogs which were used to express myself. All of them were kept private like a dairy (n to some ppl who are close to share with) but all deleted now cos i was too emo, full of crappy stories...plus no self-discipline to keep it updated. Now, I decided to come back and write more to keep track of my life, I should have my ancestors' 'never-give-up' spirit in me. Probably 100 years later, I can still read my stories to my cucu-cicit kura kura again.</p> <p>I'm a baby tortoise now but i'm sure as time flies I'll be a wiser tortoise.</p> <p>well, we will see how long this blog will last...</p> <p>See you again!</p>Rachyinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15160903202131828472noreply@blogger.com0
