will be back~~~

just come back to check that how long i didn't blog. the answer is 1 year + 3 months. this is the longest period that i had left my blog behind. would like to post more in future. cos i found out that my english writing skill is going downhill. this is the problem of working in a cina company. everyone prefer to talk in mandarin. n the person that i can talk to with english is my intern. pathetic...

will be back soon. hope i can write a super long blog the next time i blog. or i should separate it into few blogs.

ps: write this in client office, which i really shouldn't.

Joke of the day

Sometimes I have a question, when those people are teaching you something, are they really sure what are they talking about? They don’t even know the name of the things that they are talking about. How do I rely on what they taught me?

说话爹嗲声嗲气有时很可爱，或许男人也觉得很可爱。可是有时太过火就变得做作和讨人厌。而且日常生活对同事这样，我不觉得可爱。

Joke of the date: “a bit sweet.” I heard as “a big shit”. I dunno if that is my ear problem or her pronunciation problem. Another one is “VAT” but again, I heard as “BAT”

Another joke of the day. A 25 years old female (sorry, cos I dunno how to categorize her as girl, lady or woman. Cos she is not young, but childish. She is not ladylike but she has long curly hair, though sometimes like grass, she is not matured but she is 25!!) cannot differentiate dutch and French. A dutch airline but she kept telling me is French.

Johore Bahru

Johore Bahru, is not a very good place for me. I did not have a very good impression on it. Maybe is because of the client. They are really shitty. For the first two days, they let the auditor from the ISO to sit in their big nice conference room, while 5 of us had to squeeze in a tiny room with a tiny table which usual used by people for hi-tea. Try to imagine, 5 of us, 5 laptops, with all the stationeries, files and documents. I really don’t know how did we survive here. Then the third day, the auditor from ISO had actually left but still, they did not let us to move to the bigger room and our AM came in to review file on the same day. Another thing is, as an auditor for more than half a year, this is the first time I did not get access to client’s document. What we could do only to sample select and pass the list to them, they will find out all the documents for us. If they did it fast, we are ok with that but the things that we requested on the first day, we only got it on the second day night. When I said night, that really means night not evening. Except for the first day we got to go back to hotel before sun set. The second day we only got back to hotel at 10pm. Third day, 12am. Fourth day, 9.30pm. Fifth day, finally we can go home. But that not end my days at JB, on the fourth night, I don’t know what happened to me. When I got back to hotel, I vomited twice and the next morning I got diarrhea until noon. And now, when I am writing this blog, I still having headache.

Weekend

At Johore now, just finished doing my term loan which is not as hard as I think. Maybe this one is not as complicated as I thought. The last weekend was a hell for me. Start from Friday night, I stayed back at office and worked until 11pm to finish all the jobs before heading to Johore today. (This might very common for those who work in big firm but it’s NOT for me.) The next morning, which is the only day I could wake up a bit later but unfortunately I woke up at 7.30am (which is slightly later than my usual wake up time). So I decided to go for a jog. After a 2 rounds jog, I went back home and did the entire house cleaning. Around 4.30pm while waiting for my brother reply, I fell asleep. By the time my brother replied me and also the time I woke up from my nap (FYI, this is my first nap since I joined audit.) was already 6.30pm which made my plan to go to church blown.

After all these, I watched my drama and movies. (Yea, this made my Saturday not that bad.) One of the movies I watched was ‘Step Up’. It’s a nice movie and I enjoyed it very much. Because of the 2 hours nap, I couldn’t fall asleep for the whole night. And I slept at 3.30am and the next morning I still need to wake up early to go to class. Luckily the class ended early and I could go home early and pack my things for today trip. Around 11pm, I already went on bed because I had to wake up at 4.30am to meet up my colleagues and then go to airport. On the way to airport actually I could sleep for a while but my big mouth colleagues keep on talking. I really wanted to ask them to shut up but I still have my manner, so I didn’t do that. Luckily when we were in the flight, they were seated separately so that I could sleep for around 1hour and after the driver fetched us. I supposed I could sleep for another half an hour but again, big mouths were opened again. And.. I couldn’t sleep again. After reached client’s place, unbelievably our ‘smart’ client let us to sit in ‘tiny’ room which is not bigger than 3mtr X 3mtr and there are 5 of us. While the bigger room they leave it for the ISO auditor. My back and neck was so painful.

Time to sleep…

it's ok to be different

Guess where am I now? Where can I be if not in office then it would be client’s office. Why am I so free blogging at this hour? Actually is my lunch time, just finished my packed rice then thinking what should I do now. Nothing better than writing a new blog, and I am into blogging again. Don’t know why, feeling so good when you can express yourselves through words.

I just watched ‘all about steve’ two nights ago. I wasn’t free but I ran out of drama and I need some voice when I was doing my work. So, from a whole box of DVSs that my brother passed to me, I chose this one to watch. Before this I never know that Sandra Bullock can be so 38 but the guy, Steve is so cute. (I forgotten his name, XXX Church) why is it so hard to find a guy with nice body here? Actually my point here is it’s ok to be different, in the movie, Sandra as Mary is a cross word conductor, she is like an encyclopedia she can tell you the history and things behind very simple thing. Not much people like her because she talks too much (quite similar like me, just that I talked crap.) and her red boots but she is happy with her life. It’s ok to be single, as long as I am happy with my life, no one can give any comment on it. If you wanted to, then live your life before you comment mine.

Hmm… enough with the daydreaming, it’s time to get back to work. XOXO…

my day

Today, I heard the very well-known quote “life is not about how long is it, it is about how wide you live it” this is very true. We will never know when we will die, but as long as we live, we should live it as wide as we can. I am thinking what I had done for 22 years. I went through PTS, UPSR, PMR, UEC (Jr), SPM, UEC (Sr), degree and now doing ACCA. Like what 33 said, we spent more than half of our lives in studying. Some nobles said study is for learning knowledge but not to pass exam. As far as I live now, except kindergarden (which I couldn’t recall), almost every teacher and lecturer, the first day they come into the class, they will tell you how is the marking scheme and the format of the exam. Is this what they called knowledge-based education? I am not agreed with that. If they really want to implement knowledge-based education, then there should no exam at all. Children study base on their own interests. This is what I call knowledge-based education but this will never happened. The conclusion is, the nobles know how to talk crap.

Back to the main topic, what had I done? I passed all of my major exams, some with flying color, some are not. I get to know bunch of great friends. From high school till college, I have friends went through all the happiness and sadness with me. We learned together, we grew up together, we laughed together and of course, we cried together. (Human likes to talk about the past and me too.) What achievement have I done so far? Feeding myself? This is not really can be proud of because some of my darlings already earning money when they were at the age of 20 and 21 and they had finished their degree too. This is so sad when I see that I have no achievement for my 22 years of life. What if I die tomorrow? Will I regret? Yes, for sure I will regret. So to not regret, to everyone I care, “I LOVE YOU!!”.

Pretend busy

Once you go to work in my company, this first thing that you must learn is pretend to be busy. In this company, people feel uncomfortable when they see someone is free or just being relax for a while. They will start to tell everyone that you are very free, so others can assign their works to you even it is not related to your job scoop. Anyhow you have to do it because if you don’t do it, someone on top will get the rumor that you are not working hard. From there on, you will be watching.

So no matter what are you doing, just keep your serious face, even you are reading a funny joke or looking at funny pictures, make sure you don’t laugh. This is what my colleagues do even my manager too. They look very serious even they are fb-ing or msn-ing. So they are the hardworking employees while me, try to look serious while typing my blog in the office at 10.30am.. Like Ivise had said earlier, put my poker face on while I am in the office, Try to not show my emotion on my face.

Is this a must for working personnel? I want to be a full time student!!

Office politic

In my office, there are not much people that i can really talk to. Like what is existed in every company, my company also has unseen office politic and seen gold finger. so you have to be very careful with every word that come out from your mouth. i am a very straight forward person, you can always guess my mood by looking at my face cos i have kinda "i'm not happy" face. so this kind of situation really help me to grow and not to depend on other ppl whom might come out and kill u silently. and from here, i learnt to not to talk so much and think before you talk. Despite of some of them that i can talk to, about an hour ago, i found another person that i can talk to in this office, she is the receptionist. I can feel free to talk to her as she is out of the gold fingers circle. new friend!! mayb i can exchange msn with her. hehe...
