zzzzzzzzzz

Man I felt so sleepy this morning, I thought it was 5 something when I woke up. Who knows it was already almost time to get up. I kept hitting the snooze on my alarm. Of course in the end I was late going out, but still managed to reach my office parking area around 8.40. I picked up my dad's book, something about how to make money. After reading a couple of pages I realise all those books that talk about making money all talk about getting into those multi networking something or other thingys. Basically it will involve turning into one of those anoying people that call up and prattle about how much money they are earning (or going to earn) by doing the networking thingy, and trying to persuade all their friends to join.

I don't really deny that this kinda thing can make big bucks in the long run, but how many of them actually suceed? If it were so easy then all those housewives and such that are participating in the networking thingy would already be millionaires by now.

The authors quote : Its better to earn 1% from 100 peoples efforts than 100% from your own effort.

My quote : Its better to put in 100% of your effort in making money rather than annoy the heck out of everyone you know in order to try and get rich.

Conclusion: Money never comes easy no matter what tactic you use. Don't be "one of those irritating people" yto our friends just because of some supposedly get rich one day scheme.

One of those quizzes

Hmm do you all think its accurate?hehe

You Are From Jupiter

You are exuberantly curious - and you love to explore newness. Enthusiastic and optimistic, you get a kick out of stimulating intellectual discussions. Foreign cultures and languages fascinate you. You love the outdoors, animals, and freedom. Chances are you tend to exaggerate, so try to keep a lid on that. If you do, you'll continue to be known for your confidence, generosity, and sense of justice.

What Planet Are You From?

Since I started working...

Since I started working,

1) I'm turning into an indian. No matter how much sunblock, sunshades, whatever I use, I'm getting darker and darker due to the extremly unpredictable and hot sun shining on me during lunch hour.

2) I had my first full blown migrane that left me completely unable to do anything. Wonder if its due to computer computer and more comuter day and night.

3) Im spending a fortune on biscuits and instant milo/horlicks/tea

4) Backaches are killing me. I really need a live-in masseur.

5) I'm unable to sleep past 10 am anymore even on weekends and holidays. My eyes open at 7.15 everyday even if I dont set any alarm

6) I fully appreciate the wonders of unlimited broadband. A day when the internet connection is down during a boring day at work is like a death sentence.

7) Saturday is no longer a day to sleep in. Its the only day available to get anything done especially if it involves banks and other government buildings

8) I look at my sisters and wonder how they manage to sleep later than me everyday and wake up earlier than me to prepare for school. Come to think of it I also did the same thing in my schooling days. Sigh, I must be getting old.

9) I wonder why I did not skip more classes during college. I dont even have the chance to do that now.

10) Paying for your own everything evolves a person into a Mr/Mrs kiasu. I'd still rather walk under the hot sun to the free parking area everyday and spend a fortune on sunblock than park in front of my office and pay rm 4 a day. I really ask myself whats the logic in this, but cant come up with any answer.

Getting a job

There was this guy that was supposed to start work today in my company. He didnt show up. Perhaps he got a better offer at a different company. Come to think of it, I faced a simlar situation when I first started work. Its wierd that I was worrying one time about why no one called me for any interview, and then suddenly there was one interview after another. After that I got 2 job offers, one after another. Its hard choosing between jobs. I mean that kinda choice sort of determines the next few months/years of your life. I would say that around 40% of my friends who were my classmates have not gotten a job yet, of coz some have not even started to look for one. I cant imagine rotting at home for so many months though

What is interesting?

Seriously I wonder how would anything interesting ever happen in my current working life. Everything is repeated with few changes everyday, apart fromt hat strange fella yesterday at the car park that thought I was malay and tried to get my mobile number. Today is a dark and gloomy day. Looks like its about to rain any moment. Alright, back to the programming for now. The end of the week is near !

Tenaga national ...

After being in an hour long traffic jam yesterday night, I arrived home to find it pitch dark. Follwoing was torchlight(not candlelight) dinner, and a long long night.... The last straw was hearing the tenaga national Ad on radio this morning "Powering the nation" or something like that. I wanted to throw something at the radio.

Just another rainy monday

The day passed by fast enough today, as it always does when I have work to do. Went to the next door petshop today to see their wedding photos. To tell the truth, I could not recognise the girl......The pics were like so cun and cheap, and if not mistaken taken near my place. Next time I also want to take pic there lo.... He even brought his pets along for the photoshoot! One cockatoo, one little bird and 2 snakes. The fella was saying, the people in the pics were not them at all, haha. I guess most wedding pics are similar, as in they make the original people unrecognisable. Tje guy was practically screaming out his stress at wedding preperations, while his fiancee was cool as a cucumber. I thought it was usually the other way round for couples. I couldnt help laughing at him really, and he was like, laugh la, wait till its your turn. haha, wont be my turn for a long time yet....

Life on the streets

Just reflecting on my life on the streets, I mean jamming on kl's streets. It takes me 1 hour to get to office and almost an hour to get home. That makes it 2 hours a day, 10 hours a week, 40+ hours a month..almost 500 hours a year... wow.. thats like 20 full days on the road each day, imagine that.... when will humans invent transporters?

However i'm sure some of us enjoy the time spent driving, a time to update ourselves with the radio, or just enjoy a quiet moment to ourselves away from other people. Hoever one thing I still cant get used to is traffic jams that last more than 30 minutes. The car is not moving slowly nor it is at a standstill. it moves for 1 or 2 seconds, then stops for 5 seconds, n repeats the process over n over for a few km, How dreadful.... I'd rather just stop there until the cars in front move a quite a far distance away then just cross the distance in one go.. but of coz tats impossible as ill certainly get honked at and overtaken.

I was so bored one day that I even took pics of the jam...

TMnet service thumbs down

After promising to come and fix our line problem since last week, the tmnet people finally arrived at around 5 pm, when it was almost time for us to go back. In the end they couldn't really fix the problem, so we have to use a temporary line, sigh... seems like the more customers they have, the worse the service gets. Since i couldn't online, i just picked up my reader's digest to read when I reached office, then the boss who happened to come early today came and asked me is it I have already finished all the work assigned to me yesterday. Sigh..

Feel sleepy now, must be getting old, haha......

Monday blues

Is it my imagination or did everyone look more gloomy than usual today. Yet another weekend has gone pass and a new week has started. My office line down today, so painful for me, haha.... can't use it to send my daily free sms or update my blog. Today of all days I forgot that my mum took my bag out of my car and went to work without it. Good thing I took out my wallet and other essentials earlier on.

To tell the truth I've always liked Mondays. I really don't know why, maybe because its like the start of a brand new week. A time where I'm refreshed after the weekend. Of coz for those that spend their weekends staying up at night, it might be a different story all together. What I really feel about Monday is, it passes by very quickly, in no time at all, half the week is gone, the week comes to an end, and a brand new week starts again. The pace of life is frightening... and it passes by faster the older we get.

Today marks the day that I have been working for excactly one month. How do I feel about it? Well, for some reason I'm still searching for something I really have the passion for, hope I'll come across it in the near future. In the meantime, everythings still fine.

Hope the line at work is fixed tomorrow....

Mother's day

Just back from Mother's day dinner, stomach full of gas now from the drinks. The wing court surprisingly got quite a number of ppl. I thought Plaza Phonix is practically a ghost town now, but apparently its not quite as dead as I thought.

The food was quite a long wait, so I entertained myself with calculating petrol and toll cost on a paper napkin with my dad's ball pen. In conclusion, I should just stay in my dad's friends house near my office. hahahaha, easier said then done. have already been thinking get getting an extra job to earn some additonal income. Maybe I can be an Ah mat to the lady that needs a lift to Mount Kiara. I call it Ah Mat, not car pooling, coz its not really on the way anyway. An extra passenger means no more last minute dressing/ wearing shoes/eating n throwing garbage and tissues everywhere in the car anymore. sob sob... hav to be so civilised la. Anyway see how la

My 1st post

Um, what can I say here? Mainly the reason I created this is so that i can have a record of what I have done. Since last year I have been too lazy to write in my diary, and therefore 1 year's worth of memories are in peril of rotting away in the swamplands of my brain.

Also most of my friends have blogs now, so I'm just joining the blogging gang. Can't think of anything esle to write now, till the next post then....
