Another hard month

More than half of my income just flew away one day right after my pay day, they have all gone to my insurance, car loan, household expenses…… It’s very sad as I really don’t know how I should survive in the rest of the month. The worst thing is I haven’t cleared my credit card bills yet, and I still have to prepare for my car petrol too, this is really frustrating. I still need to save some for my year-end Singapore visit, what should I do??

Probably I really should think of a side income in order for me to cover up all my monthly expenses. Many people will choose to buy gold coins for investment, it’s believed as one of the most secured way of investment, if you really want to try it.

Despicable Me


Despicable Me

Frankly speaking, I usually prefer Disney movies more than the others, as I thought, they might be entertaining but some of them are not really suitable for children.

For this one, I can't deny that it's totally hilarious! From the moment I sat down for the movie, I couldn't stop laughing until the end! There are many scenes will burst the whole theatre burst into laughter. No matter it's Mr. Gru, Dr. Nefario, Gru's mum, Mr. Perkins, Vector, Miss Hattie, the 3 little girls, or even the small small little 'cousins' (the minions).... they are all very funny characters, all these characters could make us laugh.

I like the little minions, the bedtime story, the funny Miss Hattie, and even the shark and the "dog" in Gru's house. After the movie, all I can remember is the non-stop laughters. I can say this is a very great animated movie in this year. The Toy Story? Eh... still touching, but not as funny as this.

This movie, is just funny, crazily funny!

Farewell, 泉さん


Here we are having another farewell within a month. This time, another senior member is leaving.

Izumi-san is one of the 'pioneers' for the CRM team. The most precious thing for her is, actually this is her second time leaving the team. The first time she left was 2-3 years back (forgot when... :P), she was back to Japan, and after 6 months, she came back, joining the same team, with us. We were so happy to welcome her back to the team.

Now, everything has changed. People come, people go. Company structure changed, team structure changed... now we are almost drowning ourselves in the "Pools", and almost losing our way.

Anyhow, I'm so grateful that she would decided to come back that time. And thanks for her help and stayed with us during our hard times. She is more than just a colleague or teammate to me, she's my friend, even is my mentor. I share my emotions, experiences, thoughts and many secrets with her, and I'm glad that I got such a friend in my life.

Although she is leaving the team, our friendship will not come to an end. I would expect for our next gathering and multiple reunionssss in the future. She will have my deepest blessings from the bottom of my heart.

ありがとうございました、泉さん。
幸運を祈ります。
頑張ってください。
おかげさまで。
どうぞお元気で。
また会いましょう~

TransUnion Class Action Lawsuit

Many people still have fresh memory about the incident that happened earlier on that many employees from a well-known company had committed suicide within a short period. For that case, the employer can only be blamed by the public and media, but no legal action can be taken and nobody will take the responsibility of the lives lost. Actually, there are many cases happened nowadays, where a group of people had become the victim from a single organization or person, not only their employers, but also clients, travel agency, and so on. In this case, they have to seek advice and assistance from a group of professionals who are experts in such cases like TransUnion Class Action Lawsuit, to help them claiming their compensation.

When we were free......


It happened that our mail server was suddenly down. Consequently, we couldn't send nor receive any email. Which means that, we had nothing much to do. And end up, we drew this on our visual board. haha!

The story began with how our emails were lost in the middle of the ocean. They were transported in a submarine but suddenly got bombed, and all our mails were scattered everywhere. Another version is it's hit by whale.... and then all of them went to the north pole... it's a nonsense kind of fantasy when we were actually using our imagination. It doesn't need to mean anything, as long as...... actually it did release our tension... hahaha

Souveniors from far


The left one is from Korea, the right one is from Japan. Both of them are given by my dear ex-colleagues from their home country. I'm blessed that they still remember me and treat me as their good friends, even though we are not working together anymore, but still we keep contact with each other. I'm not sure how long we can keep our friendship, but as long as we still remember each other at the moment, it's the most valuable thing to me.

Fibroadenoma

This is something found in my body. That has freaked me off since yesterday. I drove alone, with my palms sweating, heart palpitating, and myself trembling. Luckily the result doesn't show badly, but of course the best advice I got is to take it out from my body. I can't say I'm totally relief now, although it's found to be benign, but it'll still worry me a lot as long as it's still in your body, especially it's actually at a very critical area.

I told my family after I got the report. I just didn't want to worry them before I get any confirmation. Still I can see that they are really worried. I need to go back and have another test in 6 months, hopefullly it won't get bigger. Bless me~~

Intermediate 2 クラスが終わった!


やっとI2のクラスが終わった。今日は試験です、でもたくさん質問を解らなかった。私は試験に合格するかどうかわからないよ。

I know I did it badly. I should have put on more effort to study more before the exam. But because of my laziness, today I almost couldn't understand the questions, and couldn't do well in the oral test also. I'm really afraid that I'll fail this time, then I would need to resit again.

Anyhow, I'm glad that I've made another milestone of my Japanese class. Although I still cannot really speak in Japanese even after more than a year of study, at least I'm still learning. My objective is to be able to speak fluently in Japanese. It actually took me more than 10 years of studies for me to be able to speak fluently in English, what do you think?

Earn for your living

The petrol hike has made many people concern about their financial status. It’s not only the price of the petrol and sugar are increasing, but also it may arise a chain reaction, everything related like food, drinks, their prices might get higher too. Now we are fighting for another price increasing that may come to us. They should have thought of it before they made any decision. Yes, it’s really hard for us to live for everything else is getting higher and higher except our salary. If you would like to earn more, you may try to buy gold bullion for investment. At least it is a more stable way of earning money.

Hike! Hike! Hike!

The government has caught the nation by announcing the petrol hike again. This time, sugar is the 'bonus', no subsidy for petrol Ron97 is another surprise from them. They said the cut is not expected to drive up inflation, but what we see in our own eyes, is that all the prices are getting higher and higher, it's a chain reaction.

Today I went to KL, the parking fee at Star Hill has been raised up from RM5 to RM7. It's a 40% increment! Do you think anybody can complain about it? Who is going to pay for our burden and lost? Who is going to responsible for our cost living that is getting higher and higher? Did they ever consider about it?

Now I have to think of another better parking area, hopefully I don't need to pay so much... but how about the groceries price? I really worry about our future.

Lunch @ T-Bowl

This concept restaurant was first started in Taiwan. As I read from the magazine, there is one restaurant in Taiwan, using "Toilet" as their concept, the whole design is inspired by toilet, the dishes and seats are toilet bowls, even the ice creams and sausages are making you imagine the 'output' from the toilet.

Taiwan Modern Toilet Restaurant

Now, Malaysia also got the same concept restaurant, one of the branches is located at the 3rd floor of Sungai Wang Plaza. This is my first visit to the restaurant, it's still ok when you have the food on a 'toilet bowl', but the most scary thing is the sausage that we ordered... you will know what I mean when you see the picture.

Shockssss for World Cup

When seeing Brazil lost to Holland yesterday, everybody was in shock. Brazil is one of the predicted winner for this year World Cup, and now they disappointed so many fans.

Today, it's Germany vs. Argentina. Argentina is the next predicted winner after Brazil had been sent home, but according to the prediction from Paul the Octopus, he has picked Germany. It's first half of the match, and Germany is leading 1 to 0. What will happen next, will Paul's prediction comes true? Let's see... hehe

[Update after the match]

Paul was right. Germany defeats Argentina at 4 nil. What a shame for Argentina and also Maradona, many people and fans saw them as a potential winner for this year's World Cup. And they lost, terribly. 4 'eggs', they really gotta go back hometown 'farming' (返鄉下耕田) already....

I'm neither Germany nor Argentina fans, but before the match, both of them are great competitors to each others, now Argentina got defeated so badly, and shamefully. This is really can be the worst moment in their lives.

New hair cut

Without further thinking, I had decided to cut my hair short. My family are definitely supporting me because they always think that keeping a long hair is very troublesome for me. But for my friends, when I told them I'm going to cut my hair, they were so shocked and even want me to think twice... hahaha

Finally, I have my hair the shortest within 10 years. But of course not a boy-cut. Just it makes me feel lighter and look smarter and energetic. Even the shampoo girl asked me if I really want to cut my hair, because it's a waste as I have been keeping it for so long.

Hehe... it's good to change a new look, and seeing everybody gave me a shocking look. They were surprised when seeing me with my short hair, including my Japanese class classmates. Monday I'm going to shock my colleagues... hahahaha

Good news from my friend

The good news is, my lunch buddy finally had got a good offer in an international rating top 100 company. She has been worrying about her career after her previous project was closed down. It seems that she was not given any better opportunity to pursue her job, after almost half a year, she has got her best luck at last. We have been planning for our Hong Kong trip since long ago, she has promised that once her status is confirmed we may continue our plan. Actually, she could consider to buy gold coins for investment, at least it is a better and faster way to earn money.
