Bye Bye 2008

Just a quick update.

It time for me to say good bye to 2008 and Happy New Year to 2009.

Nothing much to say, kerja berlambak. Hai! makin aku nak cuti makin banyak pulak kerja. And thanks to my boss, he allow me to go home early today (I told him my flight at 4pm) but with one condition. I have to finish all the tasks that he gave me this morning.

p/s: I'm flying to KL this afternoon. Yahoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gedik betul aku ni kan? heee..heee..heee.

Makan Lagi????

I'm 100% sure Wawa and Abby are going to vomit once they read this post! Why??? Because i'm going to post about makan-makan again. haa..haaa...haaa...

This afternoon my colleagues (Ms. B & Mdm. F) and I plan to go out for lunch but not sure nak makan apa kan. And Mdm. F said, lets having lunch at Chicwan and I thought it will be in Park City Area. Rupa-rupanya ada branch di Kidurong. Betapa jakunnya aku tak tahu apa pun. hee.hee..hee.. Actually Chicwan have lots of varieties (food & drinks), western, local dish, just name it, semua ada. Don't worry, HALAL tau.

So, my menu for today is Nasi Goreng Pattaya Special and Teh C Peng Special. However, I forgot to take picture of my Teh C Peng bah. I should take the picture because want to show the layer kan. I dah mix the drink baru teringat nak ambik gambar. kuang kuang kuang!

Tadaa!! My lunch for today.

Nice food presentation isn't it?

p/s - (I know it Saturday but I have to go to the office coz nak ambik in lieu kan. Hey! i'm planning to go on holiday tapi cuti gue udah "0" jadinya harus aku ganti cuti tu dengan bekerja every Saturday.)

Makan Time

Yesterday morning I chat with my ex-colleague, Mr. L. We has been working on the same company few years back, and then I resigned but Mr. L still working at Office "F" until now.

The last time I met him during my wedding on last August. I did asked him the day before that we should meet up before year 2008 ended. So we decided to go out and have dinner if i'm free. Besides he wants to show me the picture of his son. Since I told him that I want to eat steak, so three of us, Mr. L, my sister and myself went to Regency Plaza and have dinner at the Coffee House last night. Quite surprise! A lot of changes at Regency (oh! rupa-rupanya sudah renovate, no wonderlah!)

Kemena Coffee House

My menu? Of course I choose Sirloin Steak with black pepper sauce. My sister asked for Chicken Piccata and Mr. L prefer Chicken Chop with mushroom sauce.

My Vanilla Milk Shake

My Sirloin Steak with black pepper sauce.

Yummy! Yummy!!

Chicken Piccata

And finally, I asked for hot chocolate while Mr. L asked for Capuccino.

Last night meeting was fun, we chit chat about his family, his son and of course about work, work and work! Never ending story about work!!! hee...heee..heee... However, it is a good conversation last night.

And it is quite amazing where both of us manage to keep in touch no matter how busy and how far we are but the friendship remain stronger.

Parcell from our "V"

We received a parcel today. It's almost new year, what else we expect kan? Mostly our "V" will give us calendar and notebook.

But today, each one of our dept received 1 set sun shade, 1 pocket diary note book (I will give to Wawa - she asked for the small diary, besides I already have one given by another "V" previously), manicure set (only for us ladies) and also post note pad (not in the picture). Our male colleagues asking why they don't get the manicure set and we said it only for ladies. haaa...haa..haa...

Buat perangai!

This is the time when I don't know what I want to do. =)

Bosan

Saya kebosanan, tak tahu nak buat apa. Or maybe holiday mood sudah melanda. heee..heee..hee...

And saya tengah kebingungan, kesian with my family especially my mom. I know she's quite sad but didn't show it.

Tidak apalah, before I fly to KL will treat them nicely. Tapi di mana ya? Still fikir lagi neh!!!!

Greetings

I know it's a little early but I want and hope to be the 1st...

With 2 weeks before Christmas REMEMBER:

Jesus is Better than Santa

Santa lives at the North Pole .

JESUS is everywhere.

Santa rides in a sleigh

JESUS rides on the wind and walks on the water.

Santa comes but once a year

JESUS is an ever present help.

Santa fills your stockings with goodies

JESUS supplies all your needs.

Santa comes down your chimney uninvited

JESUS stands at your door and knocks.. and then enters your heart.

You have to stand in line to see Santa

JESUS is as close as the mention of His name.

Santa lets you sit on his lap

JESUS lets you rest in His arms.

Santa doesn't know your name, all he can say is "Hi little boy or girl, What's your name?"

JESUS knew our name before we did. Not only does He know our name, He knows our address too. He knows our history and future and He even knows how many hairs are on our heads .
Santa has a belly like a bowl full of jelly
JESUS has a heart full of love .

All Santa can offer is HO HO HO

JESUS offers health, help and hope.

Santa says "You better not cry"

JESUS says "Cast all your cares on me for I care for you.

Santa's little helpers make toys

JESUS makes new life, mends wounded hearts, repairs broken homes and builds mansions .

Santa may make you chuckle but

JESUS gives you joy that is your strength.

While Santa puts gifts under your tree

JESUS became our gift and died on the cross

It's obvious there is really no comparison.

We need to remember WHO Christmas is all about.

We need to put Christ back in Christmas.

Jesus is still the reason for the season .

May the Lord Bless and Watch over you and your loved ones this Christmas 2008
And may He prosper and bless the work of your hands in the New Year.

The Secret

Went to Mall this afternoon with my friend Suhanna. Having lunch at Merry Brown and chit chat for a while. Almaklumlahkan Friday, 2 hours break. heee..heee...hee... After finishing our lunch, went to Guardian Pharmacy to get few stuffs and Popular looking for books and magazines. Jeng jeng jeng Suddenly I saw The Secret!

Actually Rany mentioned this book at her blog before. And last few weeks, my colleague also mentioned the same thing, she said this book very interesting and make me feels that I must read it.

And guess what? I've got 20% discount when I purchased this book. Whoah!!! Happy nyer!!!!

Seven Self-Motivators

I found an interesting article for our own motivation.

by Brian Tracy

Here are seven Self-Motivator reminders for you to review on a regular basis.

#1 - Get Serious. Make a decision to go all the way to the top. Up to now you've thought about it. Up to now, it's passed your mind. Many of you made the decision, and you've made up your mind to go all the way to the top, and your lives have taken off. It's the most extraordinary thing. Your life is one, like in the shadow going up the dark side of the hill until the moment you decide that "By gum, I'm gong to be the best at what I do. I'm going to be in the top 10 percent." And suddenly you rose into the sunshine, and your life is forever after different - wonderful. Get
serious. Don't fool around anymore.

#2 - Identify Your Limiting Step to Sales Success. What's your limiting step? What's the one skill area that's holding you back? What's the skill? What's the quality? What's the action? Ask other people. Find out what you need to become good at. Sometimes it may be only one skill. If you became really, really good on the telephone, you could maybe double your prospecting effectiveness and double your sales. If you became very, very good at getting the order at the end from qualified prospects, you could double your sales. If you became very, very good at managing your time to really, really manage your time well, you may be able to double your face
time and double your income. Find out what's holding you back. What is the critical limiting step that's determining your success today?

#3 - Get Around the Right People. Who are the right people? The right people are the people in this room. Get around winners. Get around positive people. Get around people with goals and plans, people who are going somewhere with their lives and have high aspirations. Get around
eagles. As Zig says, "You can't scratch with the turkeys if you want to fly with the eagles." And get away from negative people. Get away from toxic people that complain and whine and moan all the time. Who needs them? Life is too short.

#4 - Take Excellent Care of Your Health. Take excellent care of your physical health. That means good diet, good exercise. Everybody knows they should eat better foods, get regular exercise and especially lots of rest. That's very important. If you're going to work hard 5 days a week, go to bed early 5 days a week. Get a good night's sleep. Be fully rested, and tonight get really rested. You don't have to watch the Letterman Show...

#5 - Positive Visualization. See yourself as the very best in your field. Remember, all improvement in your life begins with an improvement in your mental pictures. Visualize yourself, see yourself as the best continually. You are the best. Isn't that right? So therefore, see yourself as the best.

#6 - Positive Self-Talk. Talk to yourself positively all the time. Control your inner dialogue. And what do you say to yourself? Say, "I'm the best." Say it. Say I'm the best. I like myself. I can do it. I love my work. Yes, that's how you talk to yourself. And the more you say it to yourself... someone may say, "Well, what if you say those things to yourself and you don't believe them. Isn't that lying to yourself?" No, that's not lying to yourself. It's telling the truth in advance. Because it doesn't matter where you're coming from - all that matters is where you're going. Talk to yourself the way you want to be, not the way you just happen to be at this moment. Remember, you may have gotten where you are today largely by accident. But where you're going in the future is purely by design.

#7 - Positive Action. Get going. Move fast. Develop a sense of urgency. A sense of urgency is the one thing that you can develop that will separate you from everyone else in your field. Develop a bias for action. When you get a good idea, do it now. Only 2% of people in our society have a bias for action. And if you're already in the top 10%, you can move yourself in the top 2% by resolving that whenever you have an idea or something, do it now. And the faster you move, the better you get. And the better you get, the more you like yourself. And the more you like yourself, the higher your self-esteem is. And the higher your self-esteem is, the greater your self-discipline. And the more you persist, then you ultimately become unstoppable.

Remember, You're the best!

Christmas Mood

As I promised yesterday.

Here is:-

Our Christmas Tree

Santa Claus yang "menakutkan" si Damian.

A special Christmas Card from Aberdeen.

(Thanks cousin!)

p/s: Christmas Tree still empty, no christmas gift yet. heee...heee..heee... My family will get their gift once I come back from KL. =)

Christmas Carol

This is my activity for the past few days.

Yeah! Every evening I will be like "Charlie Chaplin", have to rush from office and then pegi Christmas Carol at 7pm. I love Christmas and that why I love caroling. And the best part is bila Caroling at RPR area. heee..hee.e. coz, all of us wearing white & black, with candles and we walk from one house to another. Fun sangat-sangat. On our first night, we start at 7pm until 10pm (about 20 houses) then yesterday jangan cakaplah, it's raining and most of the house are from different area. From RPR (about 7 houses), then went to our house area, then Desa Damai, Kemena Sutera, RPR Miles 6 and ended at UPM almost 11pm. Penat but fun.

It almost Christmas, another 2 more weeks to go, means another 2 more weeks before I can meet Mr. Hubby.

Muka yg ketakutan tengok Santa.

Caroling at our house.

Esok sajalah saya post our Christmas Tree.

4 Things We Cannot Recover

RIP

Quite shocked. Received news from my friend M, and she mentioned yang Mr. Warwick pass away yesterday while attending meeting in KL. My friend M, work together with Mr. Warwick at their Bintulu Site Office .He died due to heart failure.

Mr. Warwick is one of the Project Manager masa I kerja as Project Secretary kat Ranhill. I still remember after I left Ranhill and dapat offer kerja kat KLCC. Masa tu I baru nak keluar beli lunch kat food court KLCC, dengan manusia yang penuh sesak kat KLCC suddenly I ternampak kelibat Mr. Warwick ni. Both of us terkejut, and he told me that after he left Ranhill dia dapat offer with Company M which is also at KLCC and later will be based in Bintulu. He seems very happy sebab dia akan kembali ke Bintulu after more than 20 years.

Mr. Warwick pernah kerja di Bintulu masa construction of MLNG, long long time ago. Like what he told me before, masa tu Agnes masih kecil mungkin (He can speak Bahasa tau). And I told him yang I pun akan mobilise to Bintulu office masa tu. And we plan to keep in touch once in Bintulu.

Yes, he attend my wedding reception last August. And that is the last time I met him.

May his soul rest in peace. Amen.

In Memory of Mr. Warwick Ray.

24th December

Huhuhu... This whole week Mr. Hubby pergi Penang, kursus.

Can't wait to meet Mr. Hubby. Another 3 more weeks! =(

p/s: Thanks to cousin Wawa for the air ticket.

A Plus

Last night, rasa boring kat rumah. My brother, wife & Damian went to KKB ada Family Carnival. My mom not around for a week (travel to KL together with SIDS Members)

Kebetulan lama jugak tak hang out together with my sister. Ialahkan, if my mom around tak selesa jugak bila kita orang nak keluar, mesti she wants to follow. heee..heee..heee... Then, i'm asking my sister if she have a class that night. Nasib baik takde kelas. If ada, harus aku kebosanan kat rumah.

At first, we went to Mall and looking for our own stuff. Then, after pusing-pusing I asked my sister where she want to makan. Kebetulan Ezy Plus not far from where we park our car, we choose to lepak there tapi tak jadi sebab ramai orang. Pusing punya pusing then we went to A Plus. Eh! Eh! Baru perasan nama hampir sama jer, tadi nak pergi Exy Plus but now pergi A Plus lah pulak. =) Actually few times jugak I pass by this place before tapi tak pernah nak lepak kat sini. So, we give a try. Not bad jugak. Tapi we decide to lepak kat ground floor, malas nak naik atas. I like the design. If tengok from outside pun nampak classy jer. Good place to lepak.

Simple & rasa tenang jer. Music pun best.

I ordered Mango Olay. Sedap! Not sweet, just nice.

My sister ordered their home made soya bean.

Chicken wings yang sangat sedap. Betul, tak tipu.

French Fries. Nampak mcm biasa but when u taste it, fuh!

Finally, Pink Lady.

Sure I nak lepak kat A Plus again next time. Oh ya! I think A Plus ni their specialties is more to ice cream. Lots of ice cream menu until rambang mata but then they recommend us to try the Pink Lady, which is memang yummy.

Will bring Damian & Brandon next time. Sure both of them will love it!

Tag lagi

OK, this time tag about perfume. I don't have an up-to-date punya perfume. Cuma at the moment, I addicted to VS. Cerita pasal body mist boleh jugakan?

I have few collections of Victoria Secret - Body Mist. I like the sweet smell. I use it to the office most of the time and senang masuk dalam handbag, if rasa nak sembur just sembur jer. =) Some of this I ordered online, and some I ordered from my friend (Kawan wife dia kerja pramugari kan), so senang nak kirim.

My VS Body Mist.

1. Strawberries & Champagne 2. Romantic Wish 3. Sweet Temptation 4. Pure Seduction

5. Pear Glace 6. Forbidden Fantasy 7. Blossoming Romance 8. Love Spell

I have 9 VS but gave 1 to my sister.

All of these, I love Romantic Wish, Sweet Temptation & Love Spell. These 3 I use most of the time.

And now, as you can see, this is my perfumes collection. Tak banyakkan?

Provocative - Elizabeth Arden, Eternity - CK, Pleasures - Estee Lauder, Clinique - Happy, CD - Diorissimo, Miracle - Lancome, Be Delicious - DKNY

Most of these are given by my boss from previous company.

Untungkan jadi Secretary, dapat boss yang baik hati & his wife pun sama always buy me gift for Christmas & birthday. Tapi itu dulu semasa jadi Secretary, sekarang sudah bertukar kerjaya. hee.heee.. Now my ex-boss sudah retired and stay in Montana. Tapi, we still keep in touch.

Yang paling I like most is Be Delicous - DKNY, bauannya rasa seperti ingin dimakan. =)

This perfume saya beli di Isetan a few days before saya demob to Bintulu Office. Provocative - Elizabeth Arden pun saya beli di Isetan, during that time saya keluar bertiga bersama Wawa & Zurina. I think masa tu each one of us bought 1 perfume each.

Jadi, ini sajalah perfumes collection saya at the moment. Next time we talk about handbag punya collection nak tak?

Kuching - Day 3

It's Monday and maksudnya hari ke-3 saya di Kuching. That morning we round-round looking for a place for breakfast. And I ordered ayam penyek. Not very yummy. I only eat half of it.

After isi perut, our group split to 2. Maya and Maureen went to Anggun at Satok. Bershopping sakan dia orang di Anggun, apa tidak all those kebaya yang berlabuci bagai, harga rm400++ dia orang bagi discount sampai harga rm40 - rm80 sepasang. Harus dia orang tak membeli. Like they said, rambang mata, Maureen cekup 6 pasang baju & Maya get only 4. And 4 of us going to Crown Tower & tHe Spring.

Crown Tower, I like the design.

Di sini, saya cuma membeli mainan for my buah hati, Damian.

And, then tHe Spring. I went to Charles & Keith Satu pujian untuk diriku sebab tahan iman dari membeli. =) Or sebenarnya saya sudah target di Pavilion, KL?

tHe Spring

Tapi sayang, baru je kita orang melepak kat sini, blackout pulak. Boleh? Geram pun ada. So, we all lepak at Kluang Cafe. And harus ada Big Apple tau. hee.eee..heee.. My friend pun tergoda jugak, I asked them to try the Durian Flavour. Semua said yummy. Went back to the hotel at 12:30pm nak check out.

After check out, still have time, we went crazy and pergi Anggun sebabnya some of them interested with the baju kebaya & shawl yang Maureen beli. Kak Zana bought 2 kebaya for her daughter. Cantik shawl yang dijual tapi sayang no red colour, the owner said red colour sudah habis diborong oleh Dr. Fadzley (yg penyanyi tu). Biarlah aku promote sikit pasal this kedai, the owner win 3rd place during Piala Datin Seri Endon 2007 (ala, yang pasal pertandingan batik tu). How do I know? Because, the daughter of this kedai sent us back to the hotel. Harus dia bermurah hati nak hantar, my friends spents almost 1K over there. For those in Kuching singahlah ke Anggun, tengah sales stock clearance. But I do really like the owner and her daughter very friendly person.

OK, time to go to the airport. And it's raining. And lepas tu flight delayed for 45 minutes. =( Reached Bintulu at 8:30pm. I'm tired.

Kuching - Day 2 (Part 2)

On our second day in Kuching, went to Satok. Bought souveniers (pua kumbu & key chain). After puas pusing-pusing Pasar Minggu Satok then we went to Parkson @ Riverside Majestic because my friends looking for their baju, heels, tudung for our event that night.

At Satok.

I brought my make up kit tapi sebab malas nak make up then we asked the promoter at Clarins Counter if she provide those service and we found out it cheap. So, 6 of us make an appointment. Maureen and I went to Hair Do at SP, Maureen set rambut and myself said wash only tapi tengoklah hasilnya. Then with that 'vogue hair style' we cross the road and went to Parkson for make up. Malu pun ada tau nasib baiklah kat Kuching orang tak kenalkan.

And this is the result. Thanks to Clarins yang telah 'mencantikkan' kita orang. =)

While waiting for others friend, so kita org pun posing sakanlah.

Oh! This is the dress that I bought at Blook but not the Cardigan.
Itu Cardigan lama from Yin & Yang kebetulan matching with my dress.

With Huzaimah & Maureen. We're ready!

With Rosita.

Officemate yang attend the event except Bron (not in the picture).


OK, this is the event. Nampak tak pelamin tu, cantikkan? Well, we all went to Kuching sebab nak attend our colleague punya wedding.

Inilah Pengantin Perempuan. Smile all the way! She's very pretty that night.

And we loves her dress, simple but look nice.

'Pengantin Baru' are smiling.

Feels like only yesterday I get married. heeee...heeee.heee...

OK, enough! Yours truly diapit Bron & Kak Zana.

Ada gamelan tau, but too lazy nak ambik gambar at the front.
