cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get things right.!!

no celebration this year. no counting down to 1. no parties. no nothing. just me thinking of going off to bed early. sigh~ ......went to see my baby a few days ago. the progress looks good. i hope the complete it early. can't wait to live by my own. my own home :)

Merry Christmas! :)

i have a christmas dinner with shah, leo & marcus. we went up to look out point and tried different restaurant this time. the food wasn't good enough & i couldn't finish mine. before that, went out with is & the geng and met up niza & her family.

the boy doesn't seem to like me much. haha

a few more shots :)

it's now 4.45am & i can't sleep. arghhhhh!!

i got a new credit card from UOB. now, it's platinum. i was so surprised to see the credit limit given! i was too high. too dangerous for someone like me. let just say it's 5 figures limit. it's way more than my maybank card which the limit is 10k.



gonna love it!!!

just some sneak peak of how my workplace look like.

this is my table. the window is just behind me. it's like my seat has the best view ever. me & jue of course. she sat beside me. :)

so, my first assignment is to teach Bahasa at Matu Social Organisation (MSO) School at Taman Bukit Cheras. The location is quite near to where i stay. This school consist of 104 Myanmar students from the ethnic group Matupi. i know... i never have a teaching experience. and my bahasa sucks. but i really want to do this. besides, they need only basic bahasa.

you might wondering why so sudden? why volunteering? why now?

basically, i have involved in charity / volunteer work since primary school. i was an active red cross member until high school. but i stopped when i entered university. i do tried to resume back in 2007, when i volunteer for Yayasan Salam, but it was way too "religious" for me. i wants no biasses. human right are equal!

i don't know why, but i feel good when i do something good for someone. and 'karma' plays great part in my life.

i was out and about with is today. he came from sarawak for a meeting or something. and i have arranged for an off day to go out with him. we went to pavilion, my current favorite place to hang out. is is basically my childhood friend. we've been friend since lifetime!

i guess, friendship do last long.

then, we met a few of his friends that i knew. just hang out a bit and went back home.

ps: i'll be starting my volunteer work with UNHCR. can't wait!

i would love to.... :)

Hello,

I'm in the process of placing volunteers with different centres.
Regarding your application, I was wondering if you would consider to
teach Bahasa Malaysia? Many refugees would like to learn Bahasa, but we
have a lack of teachers! You don't need to have experience from teaching
Bahasa - they mainly need to learn the basics, and focus is on having
conversations on Bahasa.

Many thanks,

mimpi hanya mainan tidur.... is it so?

i have a new nickname. now..... it's azry.

good lord. i have plenty of nicknames through my whole life. am i so adorable that people keep on giving me nicknames?? sigh~ :p i've been called umik, qaymet, cobra, jude, ajude, penyiasat remaja (long story..), kechik, budak kecik,..... and the list goes on.

there's a story behind every nicknames. my fav is peniasat remaja. it happened when i was a new kid on the block at a new school. specifically, science miri secondary school. they have some kind of "religous talk" in a surau, which all muslim students need to be present. i was a fan of manga (japanese comics) and was a collector at that time. my friend, sally, borrowed the comic and was reading it in the surau! she been caught and to make matter worse, my name was on the book!

the next day, on morning roll-call, i've been the most popular girl in school. one of the teacher called my name out loud in front on everyone (not a very good first impression). it wasn't even my fault! that manga tittled "penyiasat remaja". i was called that name since.

that's something i can't never forget.

you are interesting.

yeah right.

it's true! it's a compliment! you are!

thanks :p

PAUL ANKA - TIMES OF YOUR LIFE

Good morning, yesterday
You wake up and time has slipped away
And suddenly it's hard to find
The memories you left behind
Remember, do you remember?

The laughter and the tears
The shadows of misty yesteryears
The good times and the bad you've seen
And all the others in between
Remember, do you remember
The times of your life? (do you remember?)

Reach out for the joy and the sorrow
Put them away in your mind
The mem'ries are time that you borrow
To spend when you get to tomorrow

Here comes the setting sun (the setting sun)
The seasons are passing one by one
So gather moments while you may
Collect the dreams you dream today
Remember, will you remember
The times of your life?

Gather moments while you may
Collect the dreams you dream today
Remember, will you remember
The times of your life?

ps. we can't be everyone cup of tea, can we?

being a customer service let me see a whole different perspective on human behavior. human are complex being and what exactly playing in their mind, we wouldn't know. i know for sure, customer isn't always right. most of the time, they are totally WRONG!

i have been curses almost every day by non-thankful customers. they thought they always right and tried to find any other reason to being so. because of the policy "customer always right", we let them be. and because i can't curse them back, i just kept it to the heart.

please... don't be that kind of customer. if you want something, request politely. if you make mistake, just admit. we'll assist you as much as we can. not just to point finger that the bank cheated on you. the bank never cheat. you are the one who is so damn stupid to do what you did.

whatever it is. being rude is never an answer.

♪ Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain, Telling me just what a fool I've been. I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain, And let me be alone again. ♫

it's still raining!

i parked too far from menara TM. that is what happen if i have afternoon shift. my shift was at 11am and i was out from my home at 10am. 10.20am i have arrived and made a few circles just to find a parking for which at last i parked in TM Annexxe.

it was raining heavily when i finished my shift and i have no umbrella. i waited for the rain to stop but up until 9pm, i did not. just i just make my own way through the rain.

it's been too long since i last danced in the rain :p

it's jue's wedding day! :)

went to jue's house for the wedding, but can't wait until "bersanding". went to pavilion right after to catch a movie. it has been a few days we've been food hopping. from klcc to mid valley, from mid valley to pavilion. the fav of all: sakea sushi.

proudly presenting our new hairdo :)

i have a blast today! :)

right after work, went to klcc to just have a quick dinner at sakae sushi with the team. roslin loved it so much that every chance she have she ask to eat there. then, went to pavilion with roslin, sinyee & wai lian.

charles told me about the "snow" which will start at 8pm. we arrived 1 mins before and the snow start to fall. it was so nice! i love christmas!

the deco was so nice & lovely. there were free stuff given out by coke & adidas!

i felt sooo annoyed & irritated!

my cousin at first asked me to help him to go somewhere. it was fine with me as i don't mind helping him cause he doesn't have any transport currently. he borrowed his car to a friend. i finished work at 5pm and planned to go to klcc right after. because of his request, i cancelled!

i kept on asking him why i need to tag along as i can just gave my car to him. but he insisted me to go. i can sense something was going on, and my intuition proved me right. he persuaded me to join some kind of mlm (multi level marketing)!!

i'm not someone who's easy to convince. i have a trust issue. they tried to explain the great things whatsoever if i join them! i was being advised by some kind of higher management! i felt really pissed.

the thing was, their source of fund wasn't clear enough. just kept on mentioning that it was based on rolling system. what rolling system?? what is your product?? if you say we don't have to give anything, not even 1 cent, how do you generate your income?? you don't even have a product to sell!

i can see there was a hell lot of people who joined. everyone was dressed for the occasion, showing off how well they were. LVs & Prada everywhere. so was mercedes, bmw or audi.

whatever you were doing, it takes a LOT more to convince me, try harder or just stop trying!

today is naszri birthday. and as the most lovable and kind of "perasan glamer" person, he unashamedly emailed everyone in the office to ask for a birthday wish. he went to my place just to show off his new handphone! said that it was from someone who admired him. i don't understand why girls flocking around him. he is such a drama king :p haha. luckily he's a nice person.

all of us planned a surprise birthday celebration, which kind of being forced into, with our line manager contributed the most. we have makan2, gift session and sort of. although it was a party for 3, it was mostly due to him. so larger than life.

wth! as long as i got a free makan2. :)

what a day!

i'm off today. so, i went to pick up m shipment at nationwide express at taman maluri (i wasn't home when they came to deliver the thing). i have informed my lawyer clearly that i want them to courier to other address, but still... i don't know what to say anymore.

i wasn't familiar with that area and i no longer having gps on my new phone. i just go and search for the place. i can consider myself very good with the road. you can give me any address, i can find it. with my intuition. i don't even get lost!

right after, when i'm on my way to mid valley, i, like all others, didn't stop at yellow light and just speed straight ahead although the light changed to red. and right in front of me, is a road block. i can't avoid and the policeman asked me to stop. at first i thought, oh gosh, there goes my $300. the officer asked a lot of question of why i didn't stop. and i have no excuses! i just kept silent, with my face as guilty as hell, just nod to whatever he said and ready to have the given fine. suddenly he said "just go", i was like, "REALLY???" a few times! i thanked him hundred times and drove away. i was so damn relieved!! this was the second times i been let go. previously i begged the officer until i was close to tears! that one was because i drive while talking on the phone. haha.

then, i went to the garden, mid valley. i was looking for a present for jue. leo then joined me and right after, nora jumped in. i was stopped to signed for 3 credit cards which i agreed to sign just because it has been my lucky day.

we went back when all the shops closed and stop to have dinner at a stall beside victoria club in kerinchi.

christmas is around the corner!

nora.
