Next time, I must must bring unbrellaa.. ella.. ella... eh.. eh.. eh.. ehh...... whereever I go! Yesterday I was stuck in Bangsar Village for 2 hours coz by the time I was done getting drilled by Juni, I realised it was pouring outside. So I did a lil window shopping (and some real shopping - for things i DONT NEED) to tunggu for rain to reda. Then I decided to lepak at Starbux (coz my kaki very the penat already by then). So, I sat by the window at Starbux, sipping hot chocolate and watched the rain and people drenched trying to cross to the other side.... Got this family, about 4 of them who took Devi Corner's payung and crossed the road.. Hilarious! That was a nice feeling actually, watching the rain BUT doing that for 2 hours with tummy growling, hungry with the mouth salivating for Bibik's tom yam... I finally decided to redah the rain......
As I was braving myself to get drenched (and secretly hoping I'd catch cold and fall sick - ehem... MC purpose maa), there was this very nice lady who asked whether I wanna share her payung.....
Ah........ the world is not a bad place after all. Although there are psycho biatches everywhere, there are still some of those who are super kind and nice... thank you kakak ;-)

The World Is Full Of Psychopaths!
In the midst of me processing a new case that landed on my table, I got a call from a DIGI number that is not familiar but I answered it anyways. Silly me! It was a telemarketeer from this company called Waterdrops Sdn Bhd, located at Jalan Yap Kwan Seng.
She introduced herself, but I didn’t catch the name and she went on to saying that she is not selling any holiday package or anything. Then she asked me whether I’ve used or heard of water vending machine. I said no. Then she went on to explain what it is and all…… and that she’s inviting to a launch. She asked me when I’d be free to attend this launch. Then it dawned on me, like if it’s a product launching event, wouldn’t the date, venue and time have been fixed? You don’t ask an “invitee” to a launch on the best time for the invitee to come to an event!
Knowing my work, school, family commitments and gym schedules, I know I will be a busy bee and wont have time to attend such events so I said, “I’m sorry, I’m busy. And I’m not interested. Thank you for calling”. Before I could disconnect the call, she responded in the most sarchy tone ever “Cik Syira ni kerja apa yang busy sangat nih?”
I was dumbfounded for a second. I mean, I don’t have to explain myself to a perfect stranger on why I’m busy. Furthermore, no offence to Waterdrops Sdn Bhd, BUT WHY THE HELL WOULD I BE INTERESTED IN water vending machine. Please explain to me like I’m 5 year old!
Again I politely said, I STRESSED on POLITELY, that I’m not interested, thank you for calling. And I hung up.
Few minutes later I received this sms from this number 016-5212206, in sms language which took me a while to understand –
“Thnks bcos u r nt interested, n tat why u r nt married, andartu.. Haha, ksian t,lampau b,lagak”.
Can you believe it? I mean, I totally understand that I may be the 100th person who has said to you that I’m not interested but HARLOW! Do you have to be that super rude and attack me on personal basis?
Should I lodge police report? Should I publish this in The Star, NST??

Perhentian 9-10 June 2007
Perhentian, Your waters are super fine. At night, we laid down on the beach gazing at the stars shining brightly above you and we saw a few shooting stars (O.K fine, I didnt see, the rest did.. hmmph..). Your beach is super lovely.... we visited the fishies, eels, rays, corals and turtles. You still have them in abundant, and for that I thank you. Please take care of them for us.. feed them, and let them live.. coz I wanna go back to you in 10 years time and still find them there.
Perhentian, I love you........... I shall come back and visit you in July...
Arwana Perhentian,
I shall return next month................... for now I bid you farewell.....

Horror-scope For The Day
Aries,
Everything around you becomes brilliant and positive; you’ll begin to appreciate the simple things in life and live with more determination and resolve. At work, you’ll feel a great need for change but first you’ll have to find the right opportunities. In Love, you’ll overcome this stagnant phase with unusual and creative initiative.
How come I feel like everything around me is so negative and gloomy..???? I cried myself to sleep last night.... and now I feel so alone....... ;-(

Change
I don't like my chubby fat body, so am slowly gonna change it (I stress on 'slowly'),
I don't like how my hair has grown out of shape, so am gonna change it,
I don't like how my hair has turned to be like Cruella's hair, so am gonna change it,
I dont like how short I am, I can't change it, so I'll change my attitude and accept it (hey, check out Eva Longoria),
I don't like how sloppy I am, so am gonna change my attitude,
I don't like how lethargic I always feel, so am gonna change it.....
I AM GOING TO CHANGE ..............

It's A Good Day Today ;-)
Ring.. ring... my phone rang. I looked at the phone, it's TheClassMate. Apesal mamat ni call ni? I aint taking any "summer classes" this time round. Why would he be calling?
"Hello", I said. "Hey Syira!" he replied. "Results dah keluar, want me to read out to you your results?" "WHAT?!!" I dah menggelabah. Cold sweat emerging from my forehead. TheClassMate replied, "Yah, want me to see your results or not? What's your matrics number?"
Numb, I recited my number.. He searched for my name under the subject Accounting, and said "I cant find your ID lah. You sure you gave me the right one?" Warcccckkk!!! Me fail ke? Gagal? Have to resit??? Noooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!
Finally, after few minutes of silence, he found it and said "Congratulations! You passed.. you got *+. Siotlah, I only managed to get *.". By that time I was jumping in my seat already and shouting "are you serious?" "Dont play play with me or I'll wallap you" and ........ few more exchanges hhahaha.... Next he said, "hmm economics, it's *-, same la with me, and Human Resource, it's.... walauwei! You crazy woman! You got an *. I want your notes, your assignments, everything! Crazy la you!!"
Again, the "are you serious, dont lie to me, look at the board again" exchanges occured.. hhaha.. err think my whole department heard me screaming and shouting into the phone...
Alhamdulillah! Most importantly, I passed my accounting. I was sooo afraid that I'd flunk and have to resit the paper again, which I sooo dont wanna endure. Cant imagine doing it all over again.......
And now, I can enjoy the rest of the "summer" peacefully and rest and watch movies, go for holidays.. before I embark on a new semester with Corporate Finance, M&A and something something which I have no idea what it's all about.......
Today is a good day... and now I wanna go and jog and sweat it all out.. wee heee

Tesco....
I walked in Tesco @ The Curve all excited to do a lil "aisle shopping" (macam window shopping like that la.. heheh Tesco no windows maa) with a tinge of hope of finding this tong to put all my scuba stuffs. I found my scuba gear all covered in web and I dont wanna let 'em suffocate with spiderman's web nemore. I couldnt find a big tong, all I could find was a medium size one. I walked round and round and round (and....in the process of walking, I picked up stuffs I dont need - hmmmph aisle shopping konon) and finally I gave up and stopped to ask this girl wearing Tesco uniform, who I correctly assume works there la kan. Pointing at the medium size tong, I asked her whether they have a bigger one. You know what she said.
Tesco girl : Saya rasa kat sebelah sana
Me : Kat mana? Sana? Sana tu bukan shampoo, sabun pastu food area ke?
Tesco Girl : Ha'ah. Cuba tengok kat sebelah tissue area tuh.
Me : Tissue area? Kat Shampoo tuh? Betul ke?
Tesco Girl : Tak tau la kak. Saya pon tak tau
Annoyed Me : Awak tak tau? Awak kerja kat sini kan?
Tesco Girl : Sorry kak. Akak pegi la tengok kat sana.
WTF! Seriously, customer service in Malaysia suck big time. I mean, Tesco area is HUGE. She expects me to walk all the way there without knowing whether the product will be there or not. At the very least she could do was ask her supervisor or someone else to confirm whether they have that particular product. A simple "sorry miss, we dont have that here" would do. The point is, she could assist a customer in need. Instead, she pointed to the "horizon", expecting the customer to walk away and leave her alone attending to her chores, what she's being told to do for that day I suppose. Even I know that Tesco or any other hyper markets are divided into areas: households, clothes, electrical so on and so forth. And no way would they put the tongs at the shampoo area. Training is important, and I think these outlets should train their floor employees not only to susun the barangs, but also to know where things are... dont you think so??? *sigh*
Annoyed, I walked to the cashier, who were busy chit chatting amongst themselves, oblivious to what's happening around them. And I think they purposely pretended not to see me. So I cleared my throat and asked, "counter ni bukak ke tak?". Then only, they attended to me. Haiyooo... Does this happen everywhere? I seldom go to the market so I dunno but seriously, a smile and a helping hand goes a looooong way in making customers (me) happy. *sigh*...
Disappointed, I walked to my car at the parking lot, and OMG! I think my ears were gonna pop! The parking "police" (macam traffic police like that) was constantly blowing his whistle and the shrieking noise, I tell ya, ADOI! sakit sungguh telingaku. He was directing cars to move (the cars couldnt move BECAUSE there was a lil traffic jam coz it was raining heavily outside, so everyone was hoping and waiting for an empty space indoors and was double parking here and there). Knowing that fact, the parking "police" was whistling away! ADOI...

Hahaha so funny they didnt wanna serve us non-alco drinks.. You think it's true ah that the drinks will freeze in our throats? Then we hit Laundry Bar. Why would they name the bar laundry anyways? It was great meeting Jim and the guys. Jim, cayalah, bukak class kat Curve.. naik standard from Rasta eh? Congratulations guys! You are now Advance divers already ;-) After that we went to my friend's bar, KL Jamming Asia. Thanks Velan for the invite. You guys rock! So sorry we couldnt stay long... And the last stop for the night was Skybar. Love love love that place. The view was fantastic! Thank you guys! Thank you for dinner and drinks and cakes! I enjoyed myself tremendously. The view was breathtaking. Now we know they switch off the KLCC lights at 1 a.m. And now I know where the heli pad on KLCC is.. hee hee And thank you Atuk for making special appearance ;-)

My New Toy

What I love most about it is the games hahahaha.. now I can play sudoku anywhere... ;-)

Decisions decisions!
Am in a dilemma. I need a PDA phone, mainly because I sorta need to get my life organized. I am bad at remembering dates and meetings and I get my schedules mixed up.
Once, I was to host uni-mates gathering and I totally messed up. It was to be on Saturday and I thot it was Sunday. I only realized when Athena messaged and said she’d be late and I was like.. “errr you’re messaging me a day in advance to tell me you’re gonna be late?” Then, I started to get sms-es saying “I’m on the way” and stuffs… then only I realized. Clad in towel soaking wet (sebab I was in the shower when the sms-es came in) I frantically called everyone to arrange “change of venue”. The original plan was to have it in Langat, but I was in DH then. Where la got time to rush over to Langat to get the plates and tables ready. It was already 2 that time and the gathering was to start at 3 (dah lah everyone was already on the way to that side of town!!!).
So you see, I really need a diary! And a pretty and cute-sie one too!
The Kent-ians gave me another chance of organizing an event and so I did organize a Movie Day last weekend or so. We went to watch Night At The Muzeum. Actually, honestly – I nearly ter-forgot about that too. I was happily telling my other group of friends that I’d be joining them to Port Dickson escapade when I got an sms from Anemone on Thursday saying she and hubby would be able to make it after all to the movie. Then I remembered that I need to get tickets for everyone – Thanks Anemone for the sms, if not mati la I!
Oleh sebab itu, I went “window shopping” just now at Digital Mall in Section 14, PJ. It’s like Low Yat but on a smaller scale. I wanted DOPOD 818 pink kaler but the guy said it’s an old product and they’ve stopped its production. “Better get DOPOD P800x lah.. murah only RM2999”. Which part of my budget is RM2000 did he not hear also I dunno. When I said I cannot afford the price he went “ ala.. you tell your daddy that you need extra money to buy books or school fees, sure he give, then you come here and buy la your DOPOD”. HAHAHHAH!!! He thought I’m still in college (errr I hope he thinks I’m a college student and not in sekolah menengah or something!!!)
At another shop, I walked in and said I need a PDA and he suggested that I get HP Ipaq 6828. I asked him, if I buy what free gift can he throw in and he said “buy now I give you free memory card 1G”. Then I told him, I can only buy on Friday i.e. on my way to futsal and he said, “Oklah, I slash the price to RM1800, and you get free 1G memory card if you call me and let me play futsal with you”. He gave me his phone number all.. hahahhahaah don’t you love being a girl?
Thus, therefore, hence – which one should I get?
1. DOPOD 818 pro; or
2. HP Ipaq 6828????
Decisions decisions decisions…….!!!!!
P/s: actually I am also eyeing this Gucci charmed bracelet watch! Hi tech gadget vs pretty goojas gucci watch??? Decisions decisions!

Then I told him, I can only buy on Friday i.e. on my way to futsal and he said, “Oklah, I slash the price to RM1800, and you get free 1G memory card if you call me and let me play futsal with you”. He gave me his phone number all.. hahahhahaah don’t you love being a girl?
Thus, therefore, hence – which one should I get?
1. DOPOD 818 pro; or
2. HP Ipaq 6828????
Decisions decisions decisions…….!!!!!
P/s: actually I am also eyeing this Gucci charmed bracelet watch! Hi tech gadget vs pretty goojas gucci watch??? Decisions decisions!

TIME AND TIDE WAIT FOR NO MAN (WOMAN)
I feel like there’s just not enough time in a day. New Year’s Eve felt like it was just yesterday and now it’s already coming to mid-month of January.
Already, lecturers had outlined the timetable for the semester and I now have a cute lil diary where I plot on the dates of tests, assignments, mid-semester exams and finally the final exam (also dates on when I can book the 0 ringgit AirAsia tickets or go for scuba trips.. hahahah)
I’m nervous on whether I'm able to pull this semester through! Last night, we had class exercise on accounting questions, and I couldn’t even understand the question!!! I am sooo scared!
But seriously, time flies kan??? Like zoooooms whoosh, GONE!

Two Double-0 Seven
Unlike previous years, this year, I wasn’t enthused at all in ushering the New Year. Previously, I would somehow, plan something with friends or family, but this year zilch. Invite to dinner by brothers and sisters I turned down. For some reason, I just wasn’t in the mood – is that a sign of old age???
I watched Star Wars and fell asleep before midnight, only to be awaken by my niece who said “Cik Su, wake up, it’s New Year”. And true enough, I heard the loud thuds here and there everywhere, the sound of the fireworks. The sound is really scary – can feel like berada di Iraq like that (I think lah)… From our house, we could see fireworks all over KL… it was pretty awesome. My six year old nephew was so excited, he ran all over the house to catch the glimpse of the fireworks.. And after that……… I dozed off.. hahaha
So anyways… I heard over the radio that this 2 Double-0 7 will be a good year for Aries! It’d better be! 5 days into the New Year, hmmmm OKlah, it’s not so bad lah..
Resolution Schmosolution.. one of my biggest resolution was - NOT TO USE CREDIT CARD. Too bad so sad! I just used about RM1k to buy tickets to Boyz II Men (which I think by now they’re OLD men.. hahahah) concert… hahahahah goblocks!
So anyways, my homework tonight is to hafal Samson’s songs so that I won’t be that idiot who can’t sing along with them tomorrow at their concert! ;-)
Kenangan Terindah
Aku yang lemah tanpamu Aku yang rentan karena Cinta yang tlah hilang darimu Yang mampu menyanjungku Selama mata terbuka Sampai jantung tak berdetak Selama itu pun Aku mampu tuk mengenangmu Darimu... Kutemukan hidupku Bagiku... Kau lah cinta sejati Ooh... Bila yang tertulis untukku Adalah yang terbaik untukmu Kan kujadikan kau kenangan Yang terindah dalam hidupku Namun takkan mudah bagiku Meninggalkan jejak hidupku Yang tlah terukir abadi Sebagai kenangan yang terindah Ooh...

Discover Selangor – the “hunter’s” way…
Again, for 2 Sundays in a row, I tortured myself by making me wake up at 6.30 – a.m! Today, I crawled outta bed asking myself, why did I bring this upon myself? Waking up at wee hours in the morning.. Oklah.. not really wee hours but it sure is early for my standard! He he…………….. hey even on work days I wake up at 8.30!!!
After having a quick breakie of instant waffles and maple syrup, we arrived at Dataran Kemerdekaan Shah Alam close to 8 am, forced to loosen up by doing some sort of senaman beramai-ramai (which was sooo governmenty event) “exercise”, endured some speech and at about half 8, we were flagged off. We began the task by counting the number of Selangor flags in a round-a-bout. Ha ha ha… it’s soo not the normal “brain-wrecking” sorta treasure hunt. The questions were really direct and “no-brainer” questions.
There was this one question, which read “Place where you can buy fish”. We saw 2 possible places with possible answers:
1. Chua Aquarium; and
2. Pasar Pelabuhan Kelang.
We were sooo thinking outside the box – like, is it.. place to buy dead fish OR place to buy healthy living fishies? Ha ha ha we even consulted a flipping coin’s advice which said not once but 3 times that it’s Chua Aquarium. Unfortunately, the event manager didn’t reveal the answers so we will never know which it was.
The hunt took us all the way to Pulau Indah and Bukit Melawati. Interesting places which I wanna go again to look for those infamous kelip-kelips. Oh, I also learnt that Star Cruises is own by tycoon Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong…
After 250km of “search and travel”, in which we completed within 4 hours, we were left to complete the last task which is to come up with a slogan for this group of people who will be going all over the world for some adventure. After much thought over very, very sweet limau ice at this kopitiam in Section 10, Shah Alam, we came up with “Atasi Cabaran Mencapai Wangsa Jati” <--- something like that lah. And………… with that we got this..
I think all the 8 top teams got 100% correct answers, but the slogans determined whether it’s RM5,000, RM2,500, RM1,500 or hampers with food stuffs.
So, RM1,500 bahagi 4 - we sorta break-even lah, i.e. balik modal la, since last week we only managed to win some kao biore facial cleansers, water tumblers and torch lights.. Last week was MENSA’s Hunt in which we got 16th placing (though Len might attest to that… he he he oklah Len, we got 18th he hehehe… 16th, 17th and 18th place had a tie) outta 39 teams. That hunt left my brain – brainless.. !!! Gile susah ok the questions!
Am so glad we won (though only managed to secure 2nd runner up, it’s still something) this Selangor one… Well done Betul La Kot team-mates, Tokkie, Yates and Mars ;-))).
So when’s next hunt? January, 15?? Count me in… ;-)))

C.I.N.T.A
I was in tears when I watched CINTA (and thank God went to watch with a bunch of girlfriends, if pegi with date, ayoo shy!) and even by listening to the soundtrack can make me cry buckets. Yesterday, sherie posted an entry on CINTA and that also made me shed few drops of tears AND I ask myself, why is that so? Was the movie THAT good?
After much thought, I have come to a conclusion that it’s not really the movie but it's the characters and the story that somehow relate to my own life.. I must admit that my life is blessed.. to a certain extent. However, it’s not entirely smooth sailing..
Boy and Girl Romance - I have gone through a fair share of bad break-ups, which have left me scarred bad. And for that reason, I have been guarding my heart and not let anybody in. I know for a fact that there is this one kindhearted guy who I know loves me very much, but I somehow cannot accept him. He’s told me before that he knows he cant have me, but he will still love me even if I’m with someone else – it’s so like that scene when Rita Rudaini was going through the drawings huh? - What is wrong with me? Why is life not perfect? Boy falls a girl, girl falls for the boy and they get married and live happily ever after? Do I really want to be alone for the rest of my life and be that horrid woman who lives with her cats?
Siblings – sigh.. that is another story which I shall not go into. I’m crying bucket now thinking about it. Will my brothers and sister still care for me even when mom and pop have passed on? Like Nanu cared for her lil brother? They all have their own family now, why would they bother with this annoying lil sister? Will we still see each other, have gatherings? I just "gaduh" with my brother in law and I'm soooooo upset now. “Air dicincang tak akan putus”? Hmm….
Grandad with Alzheimer – How will I take it if Papa is ill? His doctors have found cancer markings (or whachamacallit) in his blood, but tests after tests have been conducted. They still don’t know where the cancer is. Will I be strong? Or am I gonna break down and cry like now? Can I take care of him? I am soo not gonna send him off to a nursing home! God nooo!
Ergh! I neeeeeeeed tissue!!!! Where is the blardy tissue when I need one????
