Hey Diddly Dee.

Friend.

2011-12-26T04:13:00.003+08:00

I have kept these rants inside for too long.

If a friend asks what appears to be a "stupid" question to you ;

Do : answer them patiently. One person can not know everything, including you.

Don't : smack your forehead and ask them back "Haa? Tak tauu?". That'll make the person asking feel very stupid & ashamed of themselves for not knowing a thing that apparently every single living soul on Earth should know.

If a friend refuses to hang out with you ;

Do : understand their situation. Or know the fact that maybe it's your behaviour that makes them avoid you.

Don't : be pushy.

If a friend has became waaaaaaaaay slimmer than they use to be and you're jealous of her success ;

Do : keep quiet.

Don't : diss them by saying stupid things that makes it obvious that you really wanna be in her shoes and it also makes it apparent that you need to loss weight.

If a friend is having a relationship with someone attractive ;

Do : keep quiet.

Don't : diss them. You're alone for a reason, buddy.

If a friend is in distress and tells you about it ;

Do : have a little sympathy and say something comforting.

Don't : type "Hahaha" and complain about that yammering friend to another friend.

If a friend disagree with you about something ;

Do : be mature and understand that even friends can't agree on EVERYTHING

Don't : judge that person's choice.

Additional rants :

It's better for you not to preach something about Islam if you yourself are a judgemental, jealous and angry person.

Don't make it apparent that you're actually not happy for someone, you'll make no one look bad but yourself.

Choose your words before you spat them out.

Be a little sensitive with what you say to people. I know it's hard to do with your stone cold heart, but please try.

So called "friends".

P/S : It's not about just one person. :)

Hello, London.

2011-09-02T14:35:00.003+08:00

Yesterday's flight was neither easy nor enjoyable.

Yes, I like the fact that I'm going to study at London.

Yes, I like the weather here.

Yes, I like to shop here.

But nothing beats me down more than having to say goodbye to my family, especially my Mama.

At first I was OK, despite the crazy hullabaloo when I found out that I have to pay RM2,846.45 for excess of 16kg untuk luggage. Ayah remained calm and collected. We sorted things out by the car and succeeded in getting rid of 13kg. Sorry Min, buat kabut!

Then, we went to McDonalds for breakfast. Wrong place to be at that time. The lines were long and the place was almost full. But we managed to grab a table farthest from the restaurant. I could tell Andi was a little bit stressed because he had to go and queue to buy the food.

It was 9.15 a.m. and Ayah told me that it was better for me to go to prevent any more troubles. So I hugged everybody. First, I hugged Mama. She said something that really touched my heart. "Mama rase macam akak nak pegi kejap je ni.." Wohhh, lepas tu terus air mata keluar la wehhh. Then I hugged Ayah, Andi, Hazim & Min. At this point, I really couldn't contain myself any longer. I couldn't stop crying, because I saw Mama cry. But still, tahan la air mata dari berjurai-jurai.

So, turun escalator, naik aerotrain, bought Sharir's cigarettes, and board the plane.

I cried my eyes out since boarding the plane until we land at Heathrow. Well, I did sleep like for a few hours. Most of the time, I miss my Mama. I think it's because we've grown closer when compared to my last trip to the UK. We talk a lot more nowadays.

It was the most suffocating plane ride I've ever been on. I've never felt so alone in my life. I needed to talk to someone but the two guys sitting beside me looked unfriendly.

What made it worst is that I chose to sit next to the window, which made it extremely difficult for me to get up and go to the lavatory or accessing my bag pack in the overhead compartment becaaaaause one of the guys sitting beside me was...sihat. Note to self, lepas ni duduk aisle seat.

Thank God that's over. Now I'm staying at a friend's cosy little flat. And a few more troubles awaits me. I'm skipping class today because I have so much to settle.

Ya Allah, please help me.

Keep my family safe.

Calm my heart.

Strengthen my soul.

Make me strong and patient.

Ease my burden.

Don't ever let me forget you.

This is a very depressing post.

Hope to see you again, Ramadhan.

22

2011-08-26T06:30:00.005+08:00

I turn 22 today! Here's a picture of Jared Leto and a giant cracker

Charming, isn't he?

I'm flying off to the UK in less than a week and trust me, I'm not looking forward to it.

First, I may still be in a Raya mood at that time and having to stress myself over what has to be packed and what has been packed is not a thing one should worry about that time of the year.

Second, I will be going alone. I'm fine with the flying, although I must admit going through customs and immigration might be a bit scary. It's the registration at LSBF that I'm worried about. Before this, I have 5 of my friends with me so it wasn't very frightening. But this time, I'll be completely by myself without anyone to sesat with me! Gahhh, help me God.

Third. This is the hardest part. Saying good bye to loved ones. Guys, I really gonna miss all of you and I really hope you can join me in London soon! :) It'll be fun with all of you around, it's gonna be like a long-term vacation.

Other than those things, I think I'm all set to go. Yeay me. Go me.

Jasmin, before you go to the States to pursue your nannying career, I suggest you bring your ass to the UK and have a Euro trip with me first. Only after that, I will give you my consent. Comprende? Hehehehhe. Berangan pelis.

And as for you, dearly beloved, thank you for all the birthday gifts. Even though you're not the first one to call and wish me a happy birthday, you're still first place in pretty much everything else.

Hope I'll be fine over there. Ya Allah, protect me from harm.

Hallo Ramadhan!

2011-07-31T09:53:00.002+08:00

Hey guys. Ramadhan's coming in two days and I'm excited because of the fact that there's gonna be tonnes of bazaar Ramadhan. I know that's a pretty messed up reason to anticipate Ramadhan but hey, I know a lot of people out there can't wait to go browsing for food, too!

So, I'm going away in a month time and I'm having mixed feelings on when should I actually fly to the UK. The offer letter states that I'm gonna be starting on 22 August 2011, but the class time table shows that there won't be any classes until the 1st September 2011. So I think the one week (lebih kurang laa) gap is for the orientation programme, which I am willing to attend, you know, to know some new friends, to get familiar with LSBF and etc. Also, I'm kinda excited to celebrate the 1st Raya in Malaysian Hall. I don't know if that's strange but Raya hasn't been a big deal for me since....5 years back?

But Dad said something last night and it made my heart melt.

Me : Ayah OK ke kalau akak nak pegi before raya?

Ayah : Kalau boleh ayah nak la beraya dengan semua anak ayah. Tak seronok la kalau ade yang takde.

Me : OKLAA OKLAAA AKAK PEGI LEPAS RAYA ='(

Howzattt? How can celebrating raya in Malaysian Hall beat that? So I might be going on the 2nd day of raya, which means that my friends won't be able to send me off at the airport, which is quite sad. Hurrhurrr.

Here are some random facts that I want to rant about :

1. What's up with people taking photos of their branded stuff and publish it online/show it off to people?

2. Saying 'thank you' is one thing, but you have to be grateful, too.

3. Biro Tatanegara courses are racist, one-sided, extreme and totally unnecessary!

4. Just get married already.

5. Some guys should stop being perverts. (Providing that us girls stop wearing stripper outfits when we go out hahahha)

All these rants are like reminders to myself (except for number 4) as well as reminders to those who I want to remind. Hah!

Congratulations!

2011-06-19T07:20:00.002+08:00

Congratulations to the beautiful lady standing beside me in this picture. She just got married yesterday! I wish her all the happiness in the world and may your new life gets barakah from Allah.

And now congratulations to me for my resignation from work! And now I'm looking forward to pursue my ACCA! The title 'chartered accountant' is what I'm aiming for next, besides from getting married hahaahaaa no I'm just kidding. I'm daydreaming about getting 5 digits salary before getting hitched, so that I can have a full-blasted English themed wedding. That means I have to work hard, play less, study smart & concentrate!

Berangan boleh, kan? Tapi kena usaha la :)

An exaggeration of a bad day

2011-06-13T20:10:00.004+08:00

Today was the worst day so far in my working life.

Last week I did what I always do on the 10th of every month. I process the staff claims.

So I did the usual, list all the names, put in their bank account numbers, put in the amounts that they claimed for, upload the list into an online banking site, ask for approval from the directors, and the payments are released.

So it went smoothly and without problem. Or so I thought.

By the end of the week, I keep receiving calls from this former employee whose claim was included in the batch that I just processed.

She kept telling me that the amount that she gets is far less from what she submitted.

This does happen, but not that frequent. Sometimes they mistook their claim figure with another figure in their bank accounts, and sometimes they didn't go check at all.

So I didn't panic and I told her maybe there was a delay from the bank.

On Friday evening, as I was driving back home, another staff called, and informed me of the same issue.

By this time, I was all frantic and I texted my colleague who was still at the office, I thought of asking for her help to check the list that I made.

And to make things worse, she replied my text saying that SHE didn't get her claim AT ALL.

Yeay, happy weekend for me.

So, this morning, I found out that the bank account numbers of 18 people in the list got mixed up!

They ended up getting somebody else's claims instead of their own!

YYYYYYYYIIIIIIIIIIKKKKKKKKKKKKEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!

I panicked, felt like vomiting, crying, wailing, hiding because I was so very ashamed and all those worse feelings that you can ever imagine.

But what puzzled me the most was how can the bank proceed with the payment when it was undoubtedly obvious that the name of the beneficiary and their bank account numbers were not tally??

What the hell, Royal Bank of Scotland!? If you rejected all 18 payments, at least it would be easier because I could've just paid the people the exact amount they claimed for.

But noooooooooo, you just blindly pay them when it was so freakin' obvious that the bank account numbers didn't belong to the right people!

And then I had to spend like an hour figuring out who has been short paid and who received more money than they should!

So I asked my boss what I should do.

She's very kind and she helped me to sort this mess out.

But one thing that's driving me crazy is that when she gives instruction on what to do, the volume of her voice was 100% megaphone-loud.

Hey, I'm embarrassed enough about this even without you yelling instructions at me, or rather announcing to the whole office that I've made a huge mistake.

Thanks boss ;)

And then this technician came up to me and said, "Farah, takde salah masuk claim dalam bank account saye ke?"

What the actual f***?

He didn't even have claim in this batch, how the freakin' hell did he know? Maybe it was the announcement my boss made or maybe someone spread this issue all throughout the office.

Good news spread like wild fire in that office, and by good news I mean people's mistakes and by wildfire I mean in the speed of light.

So the conclusion is, I am ashamed and I've never felt this pathetic before. The end :)

Might I add a little bit here, I want to express my gratitude to the Superman who listened to me when I was crying like an over-sized baby over the phone and came to the rescue during lunch hour. Thank you! You made me feel a whole lot better about myself!

Monday to Friday

2011-05-28T22:39:00.004+08:00

Monday :

As usual, the Monday blues strikes me again. Normally I would be OK by lunch break, but this time, I wasn't. It was mainly because, over the weekend, I've set my mind that I was gonna be on a half day leave on Monday, when it was actually on Tuesday. The realization came late at night and I got cranky from A.M. to P.M. Menarik bukan? So work was slow because my brain is still at home, sleeping.

Tuesday :

Even if I was on a half day leave, I still had to wake up at 6.30. I had an interview with MARA for the education loan I've applied for. So after much talking to myself whilst getting ready, I had a quick breakfast and Dad, along with Andi, drove me to Bangunan MARA. My interview was at 10 A.M. and I arrived there about 9.30 A.M. I signed the attendance list, and sat down. Funnily enough, the number of people there didn't match with the name listed in the attendance. I could call that good luck, then?

So the interviewers thought it was necessary to interview each person for an hour or more, which was totally stupid because I only got called at 12.45 A.M. The irritating part of the interview was the man didn't even wait for me to finish talking! He just blurted out his opinions here and there, which I find very rude and disappointing. I got out half an hour after that, which was worrying because everyone else before me got an hour of Q's & A's. Those who are supposed to attend the 12 A.M. interview were told to get their lunch first and come back at 2 P.M. Janji Melayu at its best.

I got back to the office on 3 P.M. and I thought that was a waste of time. I should've gone home and sleep my butt off.

Wednesday :

On a normal week, I would feel good on Wednesdays because it's the middle of the week which means that it's closer to the weekend. But on this day, all I felt was blah. I don't know since when, but I am now officially unmotivated to work in that company. I'm tired of the gossips, I'm sick of the scandals that's been going on between staffs, I'm utterly disgusted by the inside politics, I'm tired of my colleagues expressing their disappointment and their resentment towards the company every single day. I could say that it's not their fault that they feel that way, because that company is somewhat being unfair to the staff.

But on the bright side, I lost 2 inches on my waist and we had free lunch for today & tomorrow which will add back the 2 inches that I've lost! There was this supply chain meeting and there were some outside people involved in this meeting. So the company had to pretend that we're rich and nice so we ordered food for everyone. So fake but that's just my opinion. Yummah!

Thursday :

I've never seen my boss so stressed out. I heard it was all because of the meeting and something about stocks, not stocks as in shares but stocks as in inventories haha. But I was told that he brought the problem to himself. He didn't do much work and when things turned out to be a bit different than what he expected, he wouldn't know what to do. Also he likes to make decision on what other people should do without even discussing with them.

So he called some of my colleagues to join the meeting to help him explain matters that he couldn't explain. Some boss, huh? I heard murmurs of dissatisfaction from the cubicles of people that he called to join the meeting. After this incident, I kinda swore to myself that I'm going to resign, whether I get that MARA loan or not. Surprisingly, that night, my parents suggest that I resign, regardless of the result from MARA.

Oh yeah, lunch today was different. Admin ordered the food from another caterer whose food was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than the one we had on Wednesday. I had my first otak-otak in a cup, which tasted a tad weird.

Friday :

The day of the week where all underpaid employees do less work and chat more, yeaahh, because we're already underpaid, why do more work on Fridays! Hhahahhah. Today, 3 people told me that they're leaving. And I told them I'm gonna be the 4th person to leave ekekekkek.

Nothing good about this Friday, except the Uncle Bob's fried chicken Andi bought at the pasar malam. So gooood...

BAMM!!

2011-04-28T17:08:00.006+08:00

It was a pleasant morning. The sun was shining ever so brightly and I was on my way to the office. Federal highway was horrible as usual. So I drove and drove while listening to the radio. It's a rare occurrence you know, me listening to the radio because I normally listen to my iPod. Dangerous, I know. So, I was less than a kilometer away from my office, when this car came right out of the junction and went into the lane where I was speeding, tak la speeding sangat tapi laju la, confident kan, yela jalan aku haha, and then ape lagi, terjadilah traffic collision. I hit the brakes but it was too late. I rammed straight into the guy's car. According to that guy, aku 'terpelanting ke depan' when I tried to stop my car. But the damage is done.

At first, I panicked. My mind was trying to think, 'OK salah siapa ni? Salah aku ke salah dia?' That was the only thing I could think of after I 'terpelanting ke depan'. Thank God I didn't have my iPod plugged in wehhh, kalau tak dia boleh salahkan aku. At that time, the air is full by the sound of people honking their cars. Weh sabar la kan, aku ni tengah blur kot, post accident effect. Then this car, which was a Honda Civic, started to drive away. I thought he was going to just run away and leave me there. And then he signaled me, saying that he'll stop at the other side of the road. OK lah, fine.

Then, one of his friends, who was also in that car, came up to me. Aku ni konon nak tunjuk garang lah, nak marah dia, apsal tak berhenti bila nak keluar simpang. Sekali keluar je kereta, kaki menggeletar, badan menggigil, air mata jangan cakap lah. Pastu nak marah jugak punya pasal, ha marah la tapi suara yang keluar tu memang 'garang' abis lah. Menggigil je mulut. Apppaaassaalll t-t-taak t-t-t-tengok d-d-d-ulluuu?? Haa??? I felt so gila pathetic at that time, I felt so weak. I don't know why I cried, it was clearly NOT my fault. Pfft. I think because I was under a lot of pressure and I was still stunned about what just happened. Plus, it was my first car accident involving another car, you know, moving car with people in it. If it's car accident involving inanimate objects like trees or cones or people's house gates, I think I can handle that kind of pressure. Or just ignore it.

Luckily the guy was a nice guy and he admitted that he's the one at fault, which makes all the shenanigans much more easier.

My poor wukong is now in Sungai Besi, alone and cold amongst other cars.

Syiiaaannnn diee? Cube cari nombor plat dia? Tak ada bukan? Tau kenapa? Sebab dah terlekat kat kereta orang tu. Tulah orang kata, kissing kuat sangat mestilah tertinggal lipstick. Ha lebih kurang camtu la nih. Lambang proton pon takde. I was thinking of replacing the Proton logo with an Autobot logo? Or Decepticon. No? Too rempit? OK.

But all in all, I couldn't do nothing today if it wasn't for my Dad. He settled everything for me, I just stand there veiled in hopelessness. I love you Dadi. :D

Disgustingly uninteresting updates.

2011-03-22T18:26:00.002+08:00

Hello. These are the things that I found out last couple of weeks:

1. OK yang ni paling excited nak tulis. This is a good news to any couple who can't wait to get married without the consent of their parents/wife/wives. Apparently there's a new 'place' for them to get hitched in Kelantan, I don't know specifically where but hey guess what, you don't have to go to Thailand anymore. Such good news, eh! So now, if your husband/boyfriend/girlfriend/dad/grandfather/brother/sister selalu outstation/emergency breakdown/emergency on-call/whatever at Kelantan, you know what to do. Haha. I was told that it was done because they want to encourage people to get married. I suppose it's to avoid all those unnecessary things la kot. The best thing is, that organisation or whatever will provide you with a wali if you don't have one. And it is legal. Where did I get all this info? The Medical Director told me and he's Indian. And he knows what a wali is! I don't know why that amazes me so much.

2. I now know that Indians and Chinese also speak broken English, not all but some. I don't know why I have this idea in my head that they can speak better English than Malays. Turns out to be the same. 1 Malaysia!

3. An Excel file can actually be linked to a Word file. Wow.

4. The top 10 universities in the world are in the US. I thought Oxford was the first or at least in the top 10. Or maybe the guy who made the list is from the US I dunno..

5. The fact that the Managing Director is a tight arse : proven. The more money you have, the more of a tight arse you become.

6. Kedai nasi padang kat sebelah Ayam Penyet AP Sunway sedap jugak. And cheaper than that restaurant at Subang Parade (obviously).

7. I'm allergic to racism and politics. Not that I always was OK with it anyway.

8. I hate kids aged between 5-12.

9. I've grown closer to my baby brother and I miss him when I'm at work. I occasionally smile to myself whenever I accidentally recall his stupid facial expressions.

10. 26 March 8.30 p.m. = Earff hour (according to Hazim)

11. I LOVE THE SHREDDING MACHINE!

12. My weight has been the same.

13. Tukdin (a Malaysian restaurant in Paddington) serves sambal belacan. Who the hell's gonna eat that?! Apart from Malaysians lah. I wonder how much it costs over there.

14. Gaji dah masuk. Vincci banyak kasut baru.

15. If you take a warm shower right after you applied nail colors, the paint will go straight off! What a waste of energy and focusnessness and left hand awkwardness.

16. My swivel chair is being such an ass lately. I don't know what's wrong with the lever, but satu hari tu tak sah kalau tak buat aku rasa macam turun elevator tiba-tiba kat depan computer tu. One minute my face is the same level as the computer monitor, the next thing I know I'm inhaling the dust in between the keyboard and my arms are fully terkangkang. Not that dramatic la kan, saje je. Hahah. Inilah hukuman suka main turun-turun kerusi masa dekat lab computer tingkat 9.

17. Quinn's beginning to irritate me more and more.

18. I'm gonna be late and Dad's gonna kill me. Bye!

I hope I have more interesting things to write in the future. I bore myself to death.

Bali.

2011-01-25T21:19:00.007+08:00

Bali was quite awesome. It was exotic, mainly because the Hindu they practice over there is very different from the one in Malaysia. The word I find suitable to describe Bali Hindu is ancient.
Bali drivers and motorcyclists always drive in 3 lanes, even when there are only 2. Imagine how close the cars and bikes are.
People over there will honk their cars every chance that they get. Sometimes I don't even know what they're honking at. They even honk at innocent pedestrians who are trying to cross the roads.
Guys where flowers on their ears. Both of their ears.
Madi is Bali's common name for guys.
I couldn't stand the weather in Bali. No, that's not it. I couldn't stand being sweaty while sight-seeing or shopping or whatever. Super menyampah, bukan?
Matahari is a very decent mall in Kuta Square where you can find cheap but pretty clothes. SANGAT MURAH OKAAAY, BILA CONVERT JADI MURAH GILA TIBA-TIBA BAWAK PERGI KAUNTER ORANG TU CAKAP ''INI DISKON LAGI 50 PERSEN YAA.."
Apparently they think that a piece of wood carving shaped like a p*nis would make a good souvenir for the tourists.
Tanah Lot was breathtakingly beautiful.
Halal food was not easy to find in Bali. To them, a halal restaurant is the one that doesn't serve pork.
85% of the population are Hindus.
The only mosque in Bali was under renovation and the state of that building was awful! There were pieces of cements everywhere on the floor. There were no walls at the women ablution place. Men and women can easily main-main mata with each other in the prayer halls because they don't put any tabir.
Some Balinese's hate for Malaysians are obvious. Bola punya pasal. I hope they didn't put anything in my food.
The billboards were funny because they were written in Indonesian. "Ketik 1234 untuk mendapatkan SMS gratis." which means "Type 1234 to get free SMSs" Ketikketikketikketik.
Andi and I got annoyed with a group of tourists from China while having lunch in Kintamani because they yelled and shouted instead of just talk. Are they always that loud? I mean they're talking to the person next to them, but it was as if they're 100 meters apart.
Hazim mandi swimming pool sampai hitam, sampai kawan dia tanya, "Eh, awak siapa?" HAHAHHA
Bali is quite famous for its kopi luwak, and it's said to be the most expensive coffee in the world. The coffee bean was eaten by a type of musang, called luwak and apparently the bean got half processed inside the luwak. So eventually the luwak has to poop the bean out. And these crazy people made coffee out of those poop beans. It smells quite delicious though. The coffee, not the luwak. And definitely not its poop.
Sambung pasal luwak. Because of the increasing demands of the coffee, the Balinese actually force the luwak to eat coffee beans, which are not their favourite food. So, many luwaks become unhealthy and stressed out because of that. :(
My flight to Malaysia was delayed for an hour. Stupid Air Asia.
Never, I repeat, NEVER line up behind an Arab at the airport. Mesti ada je yang tak kena and you end up waiting a long long time for them to get settled at the counter. And they won't step aside and let other people through, and they will never admit that it's their fault, boy they are one proud race.
Here are some snazzy pictures that I'm going to upload on Facebook anyway.

Look at how dedicated they are to their gods. This is Vishnu and he is still incomplete. Sebab apa? Sebab tak cukup duit.

This is part of the Vishnu statue. Vishnu is suppose to like, sit on this garuda's neck or something.

The temple by the cliff.

One stressful luwak.

Welcome 2011.

2011-01-01T23:00:00.005+08:00

What is 'pain'? Ceywah.

It's the bruise on your knee when you fell off your first bike ride.

The first trip to the dentist.

Pain is what every mother feels every single time she sees her child cry.

The shame you felt when your prom dress isn't as awesome as the other girls.

The embarrassment when people make a big deal out of your imperfections.

The sharp stab on your chest when you saw your mum cry.

Pain is crying inside.

Your first tattoo.

Your first piercing.

Pain is the tears that fall when you lost your little brother.

It is the empty space when you are miles and miles away from the one who loves you.

It is when people think you are 'unacceptable'.

Pain is when people judge you for who you aren't.

To them, you're forever that person they thought you are.

Seeing children suffering from hunger and there are nothing significant you can really do. Well, unless you're Angelina Jolie.

Pain is when people hate you when they don't even know you.

It is when your friends talk behind your back.

It's what you feel when people don't appreciate you.

It's what you feel when a man you hoped will always stand up for you, doesn't.

The hurtful feeling when you found out a friend is a back stabber.

It is the feeling of pathetic-ness when you are constantly reminded of how you will never be good enough.

It is the feeling of hopelessness when your brain tells you to let go but your heart can't seem to.

I started my new year with a painful reminder. It sucked real bad. Well, c'est la vie. I wish you guys all the best and happiness on this new year! Stay strong.

I'm an emotional train wreck HAHAHHA ahh well, that just makes me....human.

Gimme back my holiday!

2010-12-31T17:27:00.004+08:00

In my last post, I mentioned that I hate working when everybody else isn't. So, today, that's exactly what I get. Najib declared today a public holiday because Malaysia won in a soccer game against Indonesia last night. Congratulations! Despite all the swearing my Dad threw at the TV screen last night, you guys still won. #malaysiaboleh.

Being in the finance/accounts department has one shitty disadvantage. When year end's getting nearer, your working hour will be longer and longer. Because you'll have to do what they call 'closing', which I think is not 'closing' at all. All I remember doing was 'opening' last months' files to search for missing invoices, figures and all that jazz. I don't know if that's a normal occurrence, those missing documents, or are they all shitty accountants? HAHA.

So, today, I had to go to the office to do the 'closing'. My boss told me that I can claim for the overtime but hell, I don't wantcho moneyh, I want my holideyh dammit! Haha. I came at 10 a.m. and got back home at 4 p.m. I intended to stay up until 12.00 p.m. but shit didn't happen. Do you wanna know why? I don't care if you don't want to I'll tell you anyway. Because I spent most of my time waiting for my mentor (I guess you can call her that since she's suppose to teach me all those SAP stuff). It was always like, "Farah, lepas ni you buat ini ye. Ok, I ajar you." Then she comes over and teaches me. Halfway through, someone came and told that they need her help. So she went to help, leaving me with half knowledge about what I'm suppose to do, which means that I couldn't complete the work until she comes back. And I don't want to be doing anything that I'm unsure of because then, it will get worse and my workload will increase. So, when she came back, she would go back to her place and continue with her work and have totally forgotten about me! I, being a very polite and stupid person, waited. I just thought that maybe her work is more urgent and I should wait a while before interrupting her. And then I interrupt her. And the cycle continues.

Normally, in my student years, I would never care if my balance sheets aren't balance. I would never go back and check my journal entries if there are any omissions or mistakes. I would just leave my unbalanced balance sheet with the debit credit differences of over 100,000. (That was how I scored B for my FAR. Terer kan?) But now, even a difference of MYR17.73 is a huge deal! Not because I cared at all, I would willingly donate that MYR17.73 out of my own pocket and carry on with my life. If Fresenius is my company, that's exactly what I'll do. But nooooooo, you'll have to look for that teeny bitchy bit of amount so that the balance sheet will have zero balance! I hate you balance sheet! This proves that I will never be eligible to open up my own accounting firms. All those unbalanced balance sheets.... Maybe, just maybe, I'll end up like Enron. Or Lehman Brothers.

Can't wait to see Seming & Aloyah tonight!

Happy new year, dear readers.

Working life.

2010-12-25T15:50:00.002+08:00

I've been wanting to write about my job since I first started on the 1st December, but haven't really got the time to do so. By the time I got home it's already 6.45 p.m. and usually I'll be racing up to my room to perform Asar prayer. And after that Maghrib. And after that I'll be having crappy dinner because I was too tired to even bother eating proper food. And then I'll head upstairs to watch TV until I fall asleep on the couch. I have no idea why I don't just go straight to bed after dinner. Oh yea, because if you sleep right after you eat, you'll gain weight. And to prevent myself from sleeping, I watch TV...sambil baring, which eventually lead to me sleeping my ass off on the couch! Story of my life.

The first week of work was bloody horrible. It was a boring day, as I had nothing to do and my computer haven't been set up yet, and the awkwardness level that day was beyond terrible. There were so many cringe-worthy moments. Like the first day of work, I was very early. So I sat down at the waiting area, which is right in front of the ladies washroom. And then a lady staff came up to me and put a mug of coffee she was carrying on the table next to me and she asked me,"Has someone talked to you yet?" Bloody awful question, what she meant was saya dah di layan ke. So I answered yes. Automatically, if you saw someone does that, you'd think that drink is for you lah kan. Or no? Maybe it was just me. So being presumptuous as I am, I wanted to thank her for the drink. Just as I was about to open my mouth, she took a sip from my drink, and smiled and went to the washroom. In my head I was like saying to myself,"Oooh, tumpang letak air je rupanya." Bersyukur gila tak cakap thank you, kalau tak dia memang kena bagi dah la air tu kat aku. Hahahhaha. Total facepalm worthy.

I spend most of lunch hours alone because I can't seem to click with my office mates. Firstly because most of them are Chinese and you can't eat lunch with them because they usually go to Chinese stalls or restaurants. But they're friendlier than the akak-akak Malays ni. Secondly, the akak-akak are all 25++ of age. I can't seem to find a topic that suits both of us. If they're not talking about marriage, they'll be talking about their kids, and trust me, if it's the kids topic, I keep staring at my soup like there's gold in it. How do I join the topic? I don't even like kids! Haha. And thirdly, if it's not the kids or marriage topic, they would be talking about some old staff members, which obviously I have no clue whoever they are. And normally this topic will be the hottest most kepoh-est. It's a shame that I don't know who are they talking about, really.

Luckily they don't really talk about kain kat mana murah and carpet kat mana cantik.

About the job I'm doing, I kinda like it. I'm in the Finance department, taking care of the accounts payable. I issue payments and process staff claims. I like what I do, except for the part of issuing a cheque. You make 1 teeny tiny bit of mistake on the cheque, then it can no longer be used and you'll have to issue another one. Selama aku kerja, dah 6 cheque aku kena cancel. The normal amount of cheques cancelled a month is mostly 2 or 3. Cancel sebab apa? Sebab salah eja Taiping. I spelled it 'Taipinh' (by using the cheque printer.) And I wrote the wrong names on 4 cheques. HAHAHHA. 1 cheque 50sen, 6 cheques? Murah je kan. Kecoh. But the paranoid feeling that everybody might think you're a klutz, you can't do anything correctly, you can't handle simple little things.. Those are the feelings that I get when I make mistakes, stupid mistakes. Emosi di situ.

But I learned a lot this past few weeks. My debit credit knowledge is improving, I daresay. I learned how to answer the phone and saying my name, good morning and the company name very very quickly, although I usually answer with just a sleepy hello. I learned to use the shortcuts in Microsoft Excel. I learned how to use the SAP. I learned how to prepare a cheque using a cheque printer. I learned how to use the copier machine. I learned how to fax. I learned how make a tired face when I feel like getting home early, at 5.30 sharp, so people would think that I've worked a lot that day and I'm all stressed out so I have to go home early.

In conclusion, I like my job. I just hate waking up to it. Especially on Fridays and Mondays. And especially when everybody else is on holiday.

Ooze with hotness

2010-11-05T15:20:00.000+08:00

Thanks guys. :))

2010-10-28T00:17:00.001+08:00

That Hannah is one lucky girl, when will be the turn of this Hannah right here?

Job hunting begins all over again.

2010-10-15T09:57:00.003+08:00

Last 2 weeks kot, I went for an interview for Accounts Assistant at Wira Group of Companies, which is a growing company based in Shah Alam. Luck was on my side that day and I got the job, and I was suppose to come in today, collect my appointment letter and start working.

However, me being the human that never feels satisfied about getting a small-paid job, I went to the Jobstreet Career Fair in Midvalley last weekend, you know, to hunt for a job that pays me a lot more money than Wira does. So, application forms filled here and there bla bla bla.

Earlier this week, I got an email from HSBC, saying that I was invited for a job assessment on Friday, 15/10/2010, which is today...which is also the day I suppose to start working at Wira. I called Wira and asked whether or not I can start working on Monday because of the HSBC assessment. And I went for a shower because the lady said she would call me back.

After a painful splash of shampoo in my left eye, I heard the phone ringing. So I frantically washed my face, ears and hands to pick up the phone.

Hannah: Hello?

Wira: Can I speak to Farah Hannah, please?

Hannah: Yes, speaking.

Wira: Hello, this is Kirana (bukan nama sebenar), we spoked earlier?

Hannah: Yes.

Wira: You have a job assessment with HSBC, you said?

Hannah: Yes, at 3pm this evening. And I have this family thing and I have to go to Malacca over the weekend. So can I start on Monday?

After a lot of beating-around-the-bush questioning, hahah...

Wira: You don't have to come in la Farah, because if you do, you'll be here for only a while, right?

Hannah: But it's not confirmed that I'll get the job, Ms Kirana.

Wira: Yea, but if you do get the job, surely you'll leave and be working with them?

Hannah: Yes.

Wira: Alright, then.

Hannah: Okay, thank you.

Tadaaaaaaaaaa. I've lost a job and I haven't been officially employed yet. Story of my life.

Was I rude for doing that? Because I've been told by my parents (who are the ones that forced me into that kind of honesty. Otherwise I would've been lying my ass off during the phone call just so I could get that job. Security issues, I haz it.) to say that I have that HSBC thing. And they also said that what I just did is normal if you're looking for a job these days.

It is tough, you see. Both as an employer and job-hunter.

But...melihat pada belah yang cerah, I get to go to Malacca! Woohoo! I've been spending my weekends worrying about what kinds of phone calls I'll be getting on the coming Mondays, so this weekend is MY weekend! :D

Dread-uation ceremony. See what I did there?

2010-10-04T15:01:00.004+08:00

19th November 2010.

I finally will attend my first ever graduation ceremony yeay!

But the thing is I'm super duper nervous, especially after I read the procedures on how do I get up on stage, where do I sit, and what to do when you're up there on the stage. Apparently I have to like stop after shaking hands with the Presiding Officer to take a photo. I don't know how to handle that awkwardness there.

Do I like, shake hands and freeze, or do I shake hands, turn my head to the camera and freeze?

Do I stand up straight or do I stay in the half-bow down position during the handshake?

Who will I sit next to?

The sitting arrangements will be according to our last names, and I can't remember what's the last name that I registered for myself. Was it Binti Noor Mohd or Noor Mohd?

Will my square hat fall down?

Will I fall down?

I wanna sit with my friends, my Malaysian friends, that is. So that I won't sit there, quiet like an idiot who has no friends. HAHAH. THAT'S OKAY, I CAN MAKE NEW FRIENDS. LET'S INTRODUCE EACH OTHER AND GO THROUGH THE AWKWARD SILENCE AFTER SAYING EACH OTHER'S NAMES.

Overwhelming questions, I must say.

Want.

2010-09-27T09:49:00.001+08:00

Yana Azhar, look at this baby.

A very whine-y post. (You have been warned)

2010-09-27T09:34:00.004+08:00

1. Waking up early (at 8 or 9, that's early for an unemployed person I think) everyday and thinking what should I be doing today? I'm kinda weirded out at the fact that I wake up early on days that I don't have important things to do and don't feel like getting out of bed on days that I have interviews or something else that's important.

2. Do the laundry.

3. Cook for Hazim.

4. Grocery shopping.

5. Run errands like going to the dry cleaners and such.

6. Go out for dinner with the girls if they happen to ask me to join them.

7. Internet is a must.

8. Vacuuming my room, not the house, just my room. Hahahah.

That's not even half of the works of a regular housewife. And still Hannah, you just have to complain and whine.

I have nothing to look forward to everyday besides getting phone calls from employers who'd want to set me up for interviews. My life's a bore, even Baloo has a more exciting social life than I do. I've failed all the interviews I went to, and that made me feel worse. What if I'm the kind that failed in the interview but could do the job as good as everybody else? What if I'm not good at promoting and selling myself? Does that mean that I'm not good at anything else?

WHINE WHINE WHINE SIGH SIGH SIGH *emo song playing*

But on the bright side, I'm going to London this November for my graduation ceremony woooooohoooooooo. Screw you, job-hunting!

I sometimes wish I'm still doing my degree with my friends. I might be 99% insane with all the assignments and tests but at least I'm not at home, alone.

Things with job interviews...

2010-09-26T15:15:00.003+08:00

1. You can't say 'I don't know, sir, I'm sorry' because it's considered rude. Instead you say, 'I'm sorry, sir, I'm not so sure.' Though I think there's a big difference between an I don't know and an I'm not so sure. Ah well, for the sake of politeness.

2. If there's more than one interviewer, as you talk, try to look at all of them, so they don't feel like being left out by you.

3. Remember to knock before you enter.

4. If the interviewer is pissing you off, be professional and stay calm.

5. It's not a good idea to talk about things like 'Harry Potter' or 'I can work for long hours providing that I have coffee and sour Skittles' with a serious interviewer. They don't appreciate this little thing called 'fun'.

6. Be fully aware about the table. If it's a transparent table, be careful about what you do with your hands if you happen to place them on your lap underneath the table. You don't wanna be scratching any body parts that aren't suppose to be scratched in public, or you don't wanna be making rude hand gestures.

7. Mirror your interviewer. If they sit in a sort of rigid and straight position, you might as well sit like him. If he's relaxed and leaning back against the chair, you could do the more-polite version of that. (This has been told by a lady in a recruiter firm in Akar Insan, Bangsar)

8. Don't go to the interview with an empty stomach. Nanti bunyi malu dooohh!!!

10 reasons why you're still single, ladies.

2010-09-26T15:14:00.001+08:00

1. First-move phobia

Being born male does not gift men with unassailable self-confidence. Men know that they’re supposed to do the running, and they hate it. If you want a date, go and chat him up. He’ll be too delighted to say anything other than “wow, yes!”

By the way, making eye contact with a guy is not the same as “making a move.” Eye contact, no matter how flirtatious you think it is, won't get you very far unless you accompany it with “hello.”

2. Playing hard to get

If you want a man to be interested in you, be interested in him. It works, because all human beings are egomaniacs at heart. Treating ‘em mean only makes ‘em go and find someone else.

You know when someone's trying to ask you out, so don't come over all coy in the misguided belief that it'll make you more alluring. If a handsome stranger asks, “are you all right for a drink?”, he is interested. Don’t just nod, blush, and run away expecting him to follow you. If you find him attractive, accept his offer and strike up a conversation.

When you've been on a date, don't be scared to pick up the phone. Whoever told you to wait for three days (or whatever random number of days) before returning a phone call is an idiot. No man wants a stalker, but letting him know you’re interested is the way to win his heart.

3. Romantic perfectionism

If you wait around for love at first sight, you may be waiting for a very long time. Lust at first sight happens all the time, but it ain’t love until you’ve shared a bathroom. Don’t wait around for that thunderbolt of first-glance love, because you’ll be waiting – and single – for a very long time indeed.

If you have a very narrow idea of your “ideal man”, you may never find someone who lives up to your fantasy. Here’s a revolutionary idea: try a man who’s completely different from your ideal. You may end up surprised – and a lot less single.

4. Appearance insecurity

Don't ruin your social life by cancelling plans every time you get a zit that no man will ever notice because he’s too busy looking at your breasts or (if he was brought up very well, your eyes). Avoid wearing too much make-up, too. The natural look is much more appealing to men than a trowelling of slap. Too much facepaint makes you look desperate, and that’s never a good look when you’re trying to impress.

Similarly, don't let your waistline fixation spoil a romantic meal. A tasty dessert shared with your date could seal the deal on your evening, and it’s unlikely to make a difference to your weight unless you have a date every night this week.

5. Bad man-choices

Fear of being single often drives you to accept dates – and more dates – with men you don’t really fancy. Trouble is, while you’re wasting precious time with Mr OK-I-Suppose, you could be out finding Mr Right.

Or do you head straight past Mr OK-I-Suppose and hand your precious breakable heart to Mr Toxic? He comes in many guises: the serial online dating addict who never takes his profile down; the self-esteem leech who can’t stop criticising; the rebounder who uses you as a cushion after his break-up… they grab women's hearts, take them on a romantic rollercoaster ride for a few weeks, then smash those hearts to pieces. One minute you're dizzy with lust, the next you're devastated. And very, very single.

6. Low tiff tolerance

Do you run away from a relationship as soon as the going gets slightly shouty? While we'd never advocate hanging onto an unhappy relationship, do remember that no relationship can be perfectly happy all the time. Boyfriends are not perfect, relationships are not perfect, and the road to happiness is strewn with ups and downs.

7. Ex-talk

No really, do not mention your ex on a date. Perhaps you were with him for years and he plays a walk-on part in all your anecdotes, but you must break the ex-namecheck habit if you’re to impress a potential lover. Even a passing mention of your previous man suggests that you haven’t moved on.

8. Sofa-hugging

The guy you're hoping to meet doesn't live under your sideboard, so if you want a relationship you're going to have to get out and start meeting people. Maybe you're constantly tired or ridiculously busy at work, but if you want a relationship, you need to make time for a social life.

9. Desperation

Men can smell your desperation from half a mile away. If you feel the need to ring him up on your way home from your first date, it had better be to answer his missed call.

10. Relationship resistance

Are you happy, fulfilled and busy with your work, home and friends? Do you find that the occasional fling satisfies your need for lust and male attention? Congratulations, you have a great life – now stop reading articles about why you're still single! Not everyone is cut out to be one half of a couple, and a relationship is not a compulsory element of a happy life. If you keep dipping a toe into dating but never quite feel comfortable with it, perhaps you're better off single after all.

Hi. This is a crappy cutout picture of me saying, "Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri. Maaf zahir & batin for all the sarcasms, offensive posts and swearing. May you and I lose some weight dengan berpuasa enam. Ha ha ha."

Have fun on this month of Raya-ness.

Bloody shipping company

2010-09-05T08:37:00.002+08:00

Gateway Logistic Solutions Sdn Bhd.

Awfully long name for a shipping company that does its job rather bloody poorly.

It's been 2 months or so and I am yet to receive my boxes, which were shipped from the UK before I got back.

For the first month I asked Sharir about the boxes and his answers were always vague and uncertain.

He couldn't even provide me with the reference number and some contact numbers.

But, knowing Sharir, all those things are normal. I don't know whether he truly didn't know all those things or he didn't even bother to find out.

Or he did ask Matno (his lousy boss that likes to use him every so often) but that old lying git didn't bother to find out!

You're a lousy piece of garbage and I don't care if you're about the same age as my father you're nothing like a married man with kids suppose to be you're disgusting!!!!!!!!!!!!! I want my damn boxes and give me some reference number or else I will report your stupid company to the authority whoever that might be!!!!

I've put up with that old man's crap for so long.

If you guys need a shipping service, use FedEx or any company that has a good reputation. Not crappy cheap companies like this.

GOD I AM SO PISSED OFF RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!

Jobs.

2010-09-02T06:23:00.004+08:00

In another cheerful note, I have failed yet another interview. :D I loathe interviews so much that if the Cruciatus curse is not an Unforgivable curse and wands can actually be used, I would've set it on the ones who invented this interview torture thing. *humph*

* * * *

Have you guys ever bought a product that you later discover is actually broken or damaged, but you weren't told about it - let's say, a sofa set?

Have you ever moved into a new house that is built so perfect until several weeks later, the walls are filled with watermarks?

Have you ever sent your car to the workshop to get something fixed, and you ended up getting a cheap spare parts on your car which got broken again a week later?

These matters are regarding Malaysian attitudes towards something called a 'job'.

If your job is to sell a piece of shitty sofa set, you just have to sell it, even though it's broken. If your customers don't find out about the damage, then you're safe, you've done your job. If they find out about it, well, I'll think about that later.

If your job includes building houses for residential ares (PKNS), then you just have to build them and get them done as fast as you can. Sure, you left out some parts here and there but nobody's gonna find out, the parts you left out are within the walls anyway so who's to see? There, a house built. A shitty house.

And if your job is to fix a car, use cheap spare parts, wham it onto the car and done. As long as it's attached to the car, it's a job well done.

Malaysians - asal siap sudahlah. If I did a good job, my pay will still be the same anyway.

We'll never be out of the 'third world mindset' group if these people continue to exist.

I'm not bragging about other countries, but when I was in London in Yana's cousin's house, there was this man, probably in his 40's, and his work is to get rid of pidgeon poop on people's balconies, or so I was told. Anyway, he cleans balconies okay, and he did it full-heartedly, like he embraced his shitty job. He seemed happy, anyway.

Imagine if a Malaysian get that job. Sheesh.

This is a sincere reminder to myself and to you guys. Love what you do and do what you love, which i find quite difficult since what I love doing is to sleep all day and I can't find a place in my heart to love a thing called Accounting & Finance.

Hey ladies

2010-09-02T06:09:00.003+08:00

Since I've got so much time in my hand, Imma copy this chain message I got from my a friend through BBM here.

Hotline no 03-33733994

Orange Proton Taxi No. HWC 244

Please be warned that there is an orange Proton cab with the number plate HWC 244 (name of cab company - Innovasi Timur Sdn Bhd) who is out to get single women drivers, for unknown reasons but we believe potentially to rape and kill. The cab is driven by a fat and bald Malay man (occasionally with two other men in the car who look like Indonesians) who have been going around doing the following (possibly among others) to get women to come out of their cars by attempting to create and accident.

Cutting into your lane quickly so that you have to swerve to avoid an accident.
Braking suddenly on a road where there is just you and them.
Driving extremely slowly in front of you and when you try to overtake, he will try to knock into you by swerving into your lane.

It is very likely that more than once woman have experienced the attempts of the driver of this cab but it is unknown if he has been successful in raping/murdering any women yet.

Please don't let it happen to you! Please be very observant and careful and look out for this cab, especially when you are travelling on a quiet road by yourself.

There have been so many rape cases lately (e.g. the one in Centrepoint) so please warn your loved ones - wives, daughters, friends, mothers, sisters, mak mentua, or bakal mak mentua etc. to be extra careful.

Watch out for HWC 244 and other similar perpetrators.

As if there are not enough creeps already in this world.. Sheesh. Bulan puasa pon nak buat kerja tak senonoh macam ni.

I wish..

2010-08-28T02:39:00.003+08:00

I wish that I can be more patient.

I wish that Malaysia can somehow turn the heat off.

I wish that my sore throat can go away without me having to eat those awful tasting lozenges.

I wish lozenges are more like marshmallows. You could eat them profusely.

I wish to meet Katherine Heigl.

I wish I know the reason why I'm being so angry right now.

I wish for the baby dumping shits to end. Seriously, guys? I'm older than you guys and we can't even get to hold hands, not unless I fall down or something. Patience is virtue.

I wish I can be more witty and sarcastic. Or wittily sarcastic. Or sarcastically witty. Or maybe something in between.

I wish Hazim could stop drooling in his sleep.

I wish I can travel through time.

I wish that the Jews, American and British would stop messing around with the Middle Eastern countries. What more do they want?

I wish Malays, Chinese and Indians can be best friends, sincerely.

I wish TV3 would stop using background theme songs from Full House and Pirates of the Caribbeans in their dramas. It's uhh..pathetic.

I wish I can deny how bad Daniel Radcliffe looks nowadays but I'm afraid I can't. Even Longbottom looks better than him.

I wanna go watch Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire.

Creep.

2010-08-25T23:04:00.003+08:00

Went to KL today for an interview with Maybank for the post of credit analyst, and I think the interview went well. At least, I didn't "uhhh..." or "uhhmmm...." a lot. OK, that's not the main story here. The main story took place at Platform 5, KL Sentral.

There I was, descending from the elevator to Platform 5 Pelabuhan Klang. I glanced at the digital clock that showed the train's time of arrival. Darn it, I thought to myself, setengah jam lagi! So I thought I'd might as well fill in the time with reading ceywah..sebab nak dengar lagu battery low kan. I found myself an empty seat in between two guys and took out my copy of Deception Point. I started to read, quite happily I daresay.

Then, the guy in my left started to talk softly, and he looked kinda restless. And by restless I mean tak dudok diam, terkinja-kinja. I'm a person who prefers to mind her own business, so I didn't look away from my book. He was saying things like :

"Izinkan saye nak berkenalan dengan awak."

"Uish.. untungnya kalau dapat berkawan dengan awak, dah lah cantek, sopan pulak tu."

"Nanti dalam train nak dudok sebelah awak lah."

In my mind I was like, euw..nak cakap dengan awek pon tak payah lah sampai orang laen dengar. What irritated me was that he kept on dropping his KTM ticket on ground. Come on la dude, are your fingerprints so f*cked up that your ticket asyik nak jatuh je? I got a little bit distracted, but I kept on reading anyway. But then he started to say things that were really creepy.

"Ooo.. suka baca buku..."

"Eh, asyik maen handbag je."

Is this guy monologuing about me? Or am I that perasan? So I continued to ignore him. Sekali tu die cakap..

"Deception Point."

Hm. Memang terbaek la kan. I was travelling alone and this creepy guy thinks it's funny to 'get to know me' and attract my attention by monologuing about me and what I was doing. That's effing creepy la and if you think you're going to get a girl by doing those shits, you're very wrong. I don't know lah if there's any girl that would fall for that.

I got up and waited in line to get on board the train. Luckily no creepy human being followed me.

I've been thinking about how I would respond if he did go overboard with his creepiness and I could only think of one solution. And that is, I would start to speak to him sternly, but not in Malay, but in English. I think that will show him that I'm not of his kind, I'm an educated girl (because all educated people speak English. Pffftt) with a purpose in life, and I don't do crazy batshit stuff.

Would that be mean or kinda snobby? Hahaa. Macam la aku ni bagus sangat kan nak cakap kat orang laen macam tu. But he should know better. F***ing creep.

Tarawih Tantrum

2010-08-14T22:54:00.004+08:00

Ramadhan is here and it's a beautiful month.

It teaches us to be patient.

It reminds us of many unfortunate people out there.

It shows us how greedy and wasteful we can be.

It is the perfect opportunity for us to add and enhance our amal ibadah.

It is the time to cleanse our body. And soul.

It shows the unity of muslims from all around the world.

But.. (ceh, konon-konon start dengan sajak giteww..)

Kenapa la makcik oiii pegi bawak anak-anak kecik datang surau/masjid masa tarawih? Tak nampak ke kat luar dewan solat Masjid Negeri tu die tulih, 'kanak-kanak bawah umur 7 tahun tidak dibenarkan masok ke dewan solat.' Orang laen nak solat tarawih, elok-elok je anak makcik accident kat kaki para jemaah ye. Pastu tak cukup dengan acara lari pecut je, tambah pulak dengan nangis lah, jerit-jerit lah. Saye ni, makcik, bulan-bulan pose ni nak la jadi baek sikit. Macam mana nak jadi baek kalau tengah-tengah solat tarawih dalam hati saye ni menyumpah-nyumpah anak makcik. Ye idok?

So please be considerate towards other jemaah who are trying hard to concentrate in their solat.

FYI, kalau nak tarawih 8 rakaat yang laju macam roket so that korang boleh kejar assignment ke nak kejar lepak kat mamak ke, saye syorkan anda pergi ke Masjid Negeri. Heheh.

Kalau nak tarawih cara Rasulullah (which is ade selingan tazkirah in between tarawih, normally after 4 rakaat), silelah berkunjung ke Surau At-Taqwa Jalan Jasper 7/15. Haa, lepas solat tu balek terus. Jangan memandai singgah rumah No. 22 mintak moreh.

For your own record, I don't usually type gitew or apew or manew.. Jangan lepas ni taknak kawan dah.

Selamat beribadah =)

Welcome Ramadhan.

We had a pre-Ramadhan BBQ get together today and it was extremely fun! And hot. And not to mention, sticky.

Thank you Pah for the beautiful and convenient venue.

Thank you Min for the grill.

Thank you Beril and Plumbum girls for setting up the grill.

Thank you Shah Alam for preparing the deliciously marinated lamb, chicken and mash potatoes.

Thank you Beril for preparing spagheti dengan tiga tahap kepedasan yang sebenarnye ada dua tahap aje iaitu tak pedas langsung dan pedas gila, tiada sederhana pedas ye.

Thank you Plumbum for the drinks.

Acapella, you should put some air-cond in the surau. One ceiling fan is definitely not enough. I bet your gym has air-conds, huh?

So, we went back all full, sticky and we smelled like smoke and lambs but it was fun :)

Here are some phodos I have :

Look at her go.

Aah, ade due je gambar.

Mom and Dad are asleep and the only body brush in the house is in their bathroom. I can't imagine showering tonight without a brush because it would be the same if I hadn't showered at all. So I used this instead and I'm clean as a whistle :

Good night everybody :) <3

2010-07-22T11:59:00.001+08:00

Mama Ayah, don't you worry about my last post. It signifies nothing. Nothiiinnggg...

Marriage ( I think there's a post before with the same title. Ah well.)

2010-07-22T11:28:00.008+08:00

One of the favourite topics between people my age nowadays, be it male or female.

Why?

Because everyone's getting married now! At the tender age of 21. Yes, tender. HAHAH. I don't think we deserve to be called 'ripe' yet. Depends on what's your definition of 'ripe' lah.

I learned that UIA students will get some sort of benefits if they're married. And when I tell this to Mum, she said that the uni did that to menggalakkan orang berkahwin and she wondered why on Earth should you encourage students to get married when they haven't even finished studying and there are lots of things to do because you're YOUNG for crying out loud!

Because you see, the common age for people getting married in Malaysia is like 25 for perempuan lah, so when 21 year old girls decided to get married, it sent a signal to most brains that she's not ready yet! "She's a baby, she can't get married." "21? Dah abes blaja ke belom?"

OK,then I said to Mum...

"Diorang taknak kasi budak-budak buat maksiat la tu, nak elakkan maksiat."

Then Mum replied, with an unusual high-pitched voice..

"SAPA SURUH PEGI BUAT MAKSIAT?!"

HAHAHAHHAHA

May I remind you, Mother, that teens nowadays aren't like teens in your days.

I won't say what are the differences as I don't wish to offend anyone.

But I dare say that even you know the differences.

But then again, jodoh is decided by God. When you're getting married, you're getting married.

*******

Mum and I went to Giant last week. We had to get susu Ensure for Tokmak. I don't know if I'm the last person on Earth to have noticed this but many of the baby formula/susu are locked inside a glass cabinet. So, I went to check on the prices of those baby formulas. RM60. RM50. Wow. No wonder my parents don't let me to get married so early. Not only you have to live by yourselves, you've to pay your own bills, the rents, the food, the house, the car(s), the minyak and worst of all, the commitment. Hahaha. Belom ada baby duet dah mengalir macam air.

"Blaja bagi abes dulu." Ye ma.

"Pastu get a good job." Ye yah.

"Then kumpul duet, when the right time comes, then you wanna get married, get married lah."

Ye yah, ye ma.

I can't believe I'm grown up enough to be writing about this *sobs*

At my age, the topic is fun to talk about, but to actually be in it, uuhh... no comment. Nobody knows when the time's gonna come because it's already decided by Him. :)

I'm not saying I want to get married now, though.

Tapi bukan orang dulu 18 pon dah kawen ke? OK OK dah abes bye!

Uncertainty

2010-07-05T09:52:00.004+08:00

Life after graduating is full of uncertainty.

It's not certain if you'll ever get a job.
It's not certain if you'll ever get a sponsorship for ACCA.
It's not certain what kind of results you'll get for your ACCA exams.
It's not certain what kind of job you'll get, if you ever get a job that is.
It's not certain what will become of you once you've got the job.
It's not certain that your boss won't be a psycho freak like those in the movies.
It's not certain that you'll be accepted by your new colleagues.
I'm not sure whether to take ACCA full time, or while working.

All I'm saying is,

I miss my student life, which I think, passed me by so so so so so so very quickly.
And to make it worse, I only have ONE convocation ceremony! Which means there will be only ONE time I'll be receiving a a crappy teddy bear wearing a mortar board with a wooden stick protruding from its a** and being beautifully surrounded by flowers. Blargh! HAHHA.

Just a little something something.

2010-06-19T15:21:00.004+08:00

Here goes nothing.

Accountants are boring.
People who wear skimpy dresses are attention whores.
Girls who color their nails are indecent.
Guys who keep himself well-groomed are gays.
Having a girlfriend/boyfriend is cool.
Not having a girlfriend/boyfriend means you're a loser.
Using Nokia 3310 means that you can't afford to buy other phones.
People who use iPhones = fun and playful.
People who use BlackBerrys = serious about their works/jobs.
City girls tak makan sambal belacan.
Gadis desa is the most demure girl that you can find.
"Patotlah dia macam tu, tengoklah family dia macam mana"
Sape yang order air kosong kat kedai = diet.
Diet = poyo.

Why get to know people when you can judge them from afar?
Getting to know people takes time and you don't have that kind of time.
Judging is easier.
You don't have to meet the person, you just have to look at their Facebook profile. Their profile picture album is a good place to start your judging session, yeah yeah.

No, I'm not mad. I'm just being sarcastic.
Wanna judge me? You can start here. Here, let me help you get a good start.
Oh, wait.. who am I kidding, I don't have to help you. You've done a pretty good job so far! :D

p/s : I'm sorry to those who find this offensive. I didn't write this to offend anybody...or did I?

Plea

2010-06-07T02:40:00.003+08:00

God, please make me less pathetic, more determined, less angry, more patient, less fat, more beautiful inside, more independent, less stupid.

He's here!

2010-05-23T05:46:00.003+08:00

Gang saye sudah sampai!
Since the laptop cannot be connected to the Internet, I decided to go lepak lepak in the LRC and use the Mac computer thingamagiggy and I am so in love with the freaking Photo Booth. Pretty narcissistic, huh? Tapi Andi jenis tak camwhoring sangat so takkan aku pulak nak lebih2 amek gambar kan. Ekekeke.

By the way, Seming pon ada di dalam gambar :)) Hohohoho.

Pointless emotion. And a rather pointless post.

2010-05-21T07:55:00.000+08:00

Have you ever felt that you're somehow connected with someone but that someone is not even real?
Someone in a book, perhaps? Or maybe in a tv series that you have been watching since you can remember?
But why am I not emotionally attached to Harry Potter? Oh yeah, because he's married to Ginny pffft.

Anyway,
I know two of my friends are like that. They're dreading the end of their precious One Tree Hill after what, 8 seasons?
8 seasons of OTH and if you're not attached to the characters, then you're one hell of an emotionally drained person. Haha.
I have only just watched 12 episodes of a newly aired kdrama, Personal Taste. Itu pon dah rase sangat attached.

Whenever I listen to the OSTs, jadi sayu je. And I freakin' hate it when that happens. Hahaha.
This happens everytime I finished watching a kdrama series, I feel like the story shouldn't have ended,
it should go on and on until I finally grow tired of it. Like that can ah?

I have just came to realize that my previous posts have been about nothing but kdrama and Lee Minho. Hahah. 'Tis the season for
cute love stories I guess.

The end.

Is this love?

2010-05-19T19:48:00.004+08:00

@leeminho1987 내 이름은 한나입니다. 당신의 작품을 좋아해!

Can I write this? Can I just click 'tweet'? I want to do that so so so badly!

Will he reply?

Of course not! He has other important things to do and he's even too busy to log in into his Twitter account.

But then, no one's tweeting him because his profile is kinda empty and ade pon, tweet die sendiri.

Should I just send it? I know I look pathetic, using Google translate to make my message more understandable for him, so that he will reply.

어떻게?! How!?

Is this love? My heart's beating out of my chest right now. Just the sight of him makes my heart flutter.

HAHAHHAHAH THIS IS DOWNRIGHT DISGUSTING YAWWW.

Awwwhhh :3

2010-05-19T05:05:00.000+08:00

Loooooooooong update

2010-05-15T18:27:00.007+08:00

FREEDOM!!

If you could just hear the 'Freeedomm!' part of Aretha Franklin - Think, you'd know the kind of freedom I'm feeling right now. Like, liberated. No more books. For now. I know I'll have to get back to books anytime soon, I hope not too soon.

Anyway, it's been almost two days since I've finished my exam and I've done nothing but sleeping my a** off. And my room is a train wreck as I haven't started unpacking the sleepover luggage. And I have been eating crap for the past 48hours because I'm too lazy to cook proper meal, not that I have anything to cook pon. But I'm too lazy to go downtown to Asda and do some shopping. See, what a lazy jacka** I am actually. I need some pushin'. I have my larger luggage packed with clothes that haven't been washed like for weeks, but I don't have the kerajinan to walk to the laundry and do the washing.

My BlackBerry is being a lousy friend of mine currently because it won't turn on. Bagus kan? Time periksa taknak rosak, time dah free mula buat perangai. I'm going to have it fixed. Hope it's not too expensive x_x

Currently busy with the summer holiday planning and I wanna ask you about that certain holiday here in the UK, it's called bank holiday. What the freakin' hell is that for? And it conveniently falls on the 31st May, which means that every single shop or other services on that day will be closed. And it kinda makes the planning more complicated, which makes me don't wanna plan.

Raina Hein

Baru marathon ANTM and she's my absolute favourite from the beginning of the show and I was so glad she got to be one of the finalists but unfortunately, she didn't win. I was like WTHHHHH was Tyra thinking!? She's gorgeous, positive, optimistic, never yelled at any girls in the show, never gotten into a bitch fight with anybody in the house and she never cried. Haha. Over pulak kan. I *heart* Raina

Have no mood for Adamaya because I have no mood for love stories right now. Heehee.

I have started to list down things that I wanna bring back to Malaysia like Penguin, Cherry Coke, Apple Tango, birthday presents which I have no idea what to buy.

I don't know if this update is long enough to be titled 'Looooooooooong update' but wth.

Exams, you ruin people's life.

2010-05-04T20:57:00.003+08:00

Seriously, I don't have the effin' mood to sit for the exams.

BTW, do you know how to pronounce Eyjafjallajökull? It's the name of the volcano in Iceland whose eruption caused so many flights to be canceled and people stranded in the middle of nowhere and sales of WH Smith in most airports in the UK to decline significantly?

Well, this is how you pronounce it.

Now that's what I would love to learn everyday. Interesting things like that. Not boring stuff like how much dividends does a mature company would likely to be paying out to its shareholders, why does a declining company has to have a high pay-out ratio. I don't know and I don't wanna know! I'm not interested in being an accountant/finance executive/manager/person anymore. Because these suck! I can't imagine working as an accountant/finance manager. I can't imagine having to do things that I don't even like..and better yet, being underpaid for it! Blargh!

I wanna do easy things. Eh bukan, I wanna do things that I like to do and get paid for it. Like, for instance, eat? The more I eat, the more I get paid. The more I get paid, I can do more hours in the gym to get fit again. HAHA brangan. Sudahlah Hannah, the exams are coming whether you like it or not and you better be prepared for them. Instead of ranting here on how you hate preparing for the exams, it's better for you to continue reading. :D

CAPS LOCK ON!

2010-05-02T20:05:00.002+08:00

Allah is great. SubhanAllah. Hensem gila kau nih. Hahah.

I AM SO BLOODY EXCITED WHEN I SAW THIS TRAILER OF THE NEW DRAMA SERIES OF LEE MINHO!! BLARGHH!

Exams cepat la habis. I can't wait to catch up on this series! I thought I'd never see you again Minho wehh. HAHAH.

Macam mana nak retain ke-excited-an nih!? I feel like saying OMG again and again and again.

Despite the stupid title of the series ( Personal Preferences, seriously? ), they put Son Yejin as Minho's love interest, I guess, which is bloody awesome! OK, goodbye American Idol, America's Next Top Model and Dancing with the Stars...well, maybe not ANTM.. It's time for Asian hotties! :p

2010-04-29T02:31:00.003+08:00

Tibe tibe terpikir

2010-04-26T10:16:00.002+08:00

I want my child to know when and how to thank people

I want my child to know when and how to apologise

I want my child to appreciate art, music and history

I want my child to be healthy and fit

I want my child to be beautiful, inside and out

I want my child to love animals

I want my child to be always sincere

I want my child to be positively ambitious

I want my child to pray 5 times a day

I want my child to recite the alquran on a regular basis

I want my child to be environmentally friendly

I want my child to have a big heart

HAHAHA. The end.

Pervs unite.

2010-04-25T06:21:00.008+08:00

I found this website, www.omegle.com. It's a site where they'll pick a random stranger and let us have a one-on-one conversation. See how I cleverly copied the sentence from the website there. At first, I thought it was harmless. You know, having a normal conversation would have normal questions like these:

This is a normal conversation. At least sampai situ still normal. So I got bored with this one and I disconnected and started a new conversation. I was gila curious if the people using this site are actually real, you know, alive and breathing. OK, so here's the next conversation. And no, it was not normal. It was sick.

This is downright disgusting and this is the most disgusting online conversation I've ever faced in my entire 21 years of life >:(

I don't know where that 22 f boston came from. Obviously I wasn't dumb enough to tell the truth. So I made myself a little bit older and Boston?!?! It sounded cool to come from there so I just tulis jelah. This conversation made me go all chilly inside. EUWHH!

So I searched for Omegle in YouTube and surprise surprise, Omegle is a home to thousands of pervert. Come to think of it, this Omegle thingy reminded me very much of MySpace. Home of rempits and Malay pervert. Sorry for the harsh judgment on MySpace. I talk based on my experience as a former user. :D

Stay away from this website!

Ayah dah tekan dah kee?!?!

2010-04-17T20:53:00.000+08:00

Need. Motivation.

2010-04-17T06:50:00.003+08:00

Fastpasstv.com

ch131.com

Facebook.com

icanhazcheeseburger.com

ebay.co.uk

5 is the number of websites that brings all sorts of distractions to me daily.

5 je. Tapi boleh buat jadi 1 hari tak belajar. Especially the first two websites.

I literally can sit around and think of what series/movies that I should watch.

Currently, I'm stuck with Glee, America's Next Top Model, Dancing With The Stars (because Nicole is in it. Yeay! Go Nicole!), and American Idol.

I just can't stop masok these two sites and check out if there are any updates on the episodes.

Gaaaahhhh! HELP!

Website #5 brings out the competitor in me. Bid & win! LOL.

Website #3 brings out the inner stalker.

Website #4 provides links to other websites yang boleh buat buang mase.

PFFTTT.

Here's what I think I will do:

I will not open up www.fastpasstv.com and www.ch131.com until I finish my exams, which is on May 13th. I will continue to study daily. And on May 13th, I can catch up with all those series sampai lebam. I can imagine the heaven-ness of watching those series non-stop, without actually having to wait for any updates. And after I finish 1 show, I can continue with another. Aaand, I can start watching any new shows/movies. OMG HEAVEN GILE. How's that for motivation?

OK, you've written in it your blog, you've told people about it, so now you've got to do it. Otherwise you'll become NATO (No Action Talk Only). Hahah Umar ajar this acronym. The only NATO I know is Net Assets Taken Over. HIHI PANDAI KAN SAYA?? lempang pls.

Mad Hater

2010-04-15T18:17:00.001+08:00

Hate on me hater

Now or later

Cause I'm gonna do me

You'll be mad baby

(Go head and hate)

Go head and hate on me hater

I'm not afraid of

What I got I paid for

You can hate on me

Ajim

2010-04-15T02:34:00.008+08:00

OK besar shit. I still haven't figured out how to edit the HTML whatchamacallit like Dira taught me. Nevermind then, at least we all can see clearly now.

Hazim's activities on Facebook have always got me laughing by myself. Cute gilaaaa la adikku sorang nih. This mat salleh friend, Cory, of his is also a friend and was a college mate of my cousin, who studied in Minnesota, US. Hazim and Cory knew each other when Cory came to Tok Mek's house for Kak Long's wedding. Ha macam la korang kenal kan aku tulis Tok Mek la Kak Long la. Takpe biar.

Tengokla tiba-tiba a 10 year old comment kat your status. Dahlah dengan huruf besar ape sume. Mane blaja ni Hazim. You're adorable :))

I have a habit of stalking what my brothers are doing on Facebook. I went to their profile and see what they have been doing, which page have they become fans of, whose photos have they comment on. Does that mean I'm a caring sister? Or a nosy one? Or perhaps overly concern?

Can't always get what you want.

2010-04-14T20:16:00.003+08:00

Tak payah lah nak marah if you don't get what you want.

Life is like that.

You can't and won't always get what you want.

If you're mad, get mad. And be done with it.

Get mad and get over it. Get it?

Dream

2010-04-12T20:04:00.002+08:00

If you dream of something frequent enough, is it possible that it's gonna come true? Even though it's the most dreaded thing ever?

Mr Panas

2010-04-12T10:08:00.004+08:00

I present to you Mr Amaury Vassili.

The official video is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than this but it's not available on YouTube, so here's the next best thing.

I think he's a vampire material. Muke sangat classic. Suare sedap. Polite. Pastu cakap French. Adoiyai.

Easter holidays

2010-04-12T06:40:00.003+08:00

This is what I hate about blogging using Google Chrome. I couldn't figure out how to adjust the size of the photos that have been uploaded into the post. Sape2 tau?

Boring title, I know.

But definitely wasn't a boring trip to Lancaster! Land of Sheep I should say.

Massive thanks to Nadia Farhan and Yana for making my 2010 Easter break something to be missed.

And also thanks to them for making the trip free from any terjubur incidents, although we have had our 'loser' night, ey guys? Hahah. Lawak gile tak menahan malam loser tu.

Bangun lambat. Sakit tekak. Lepak McD while other people are dancing their asses off in night clubs. Wearing scarves, coats and sneakers while other girls are wearing short dresses and stilettos. Tengok wayang on a Friday night, which is the main reason why we were in Loserville.

Kalau kat Malaysia tak berapa nak loser, tapi sebab kat UK, memang nampak macam loser. Hahaha. Who the heck go to movies on a Friday night? No wonder the taxi driver laughed at us when Nadia said we went for a movie.

But at least we didn't smell like alcohol, and we could walk properly and unassisted, we were still sensible, we didn't talk gibberish, we didn't have a fight in the middle of the night.

Ekekekekek.

Also, I met my new boyfriend at Trafford Centre and his name is Amaury Vassili. Even though he looked kinda constipated there but he's still unbelievably handsome! :p~~~~~~

Also lagi, I learned a new phrase, "What's the hell?" Hahahha sumpah broken.

After visiting Lancaster, I made a few 'hasty generalizations' about people in the Northern part of England.

They're friendlier

They're nicer

They're helpful

They're kinder

So dengan berpegang teguh kepada conclusions di atas, saye telah memutuskan untuk mencari kerja di Northern England.

I have started to have this vision that I'll be working in a medium accounting firm in Manchester, having a cute and homey little house to come back to every evening, cheap groceries that will always amaze me everytime I go shopping haha okay over, and all those clothes that I can buy without looking at the price tags! okay yang tu only applies to certain retailers i.e New Look, Dorothy Perkins, Primark bla bla bla you know, the brands yang celebrities takkan pakai. And oh, I can always crash Yana's place over the weekend. Ceywah. Sangat tak logic that Yana will still be in Pendle College mase tu.

OK berangan gila. Assignment audit pon tak pandang lagi.

I'll get started tomorrow. I have a new set of playlist that I wish to put in my handphone. And FYI to whom it may concern, that playlist does not include Tinie Tempah. Ha, yang ni kalau tak kenal tak payah Google pon xpe. Hahah.

Alhamdulillah

2010-03-26T18:50:00.002+08:00

I got an interview invitation from Malaysian Airports Holdings Berhad (MAHB)

Funnily enough, I did a presentation about MAHB in Semester 4..or 3?

I also used the announcement chime in KLIA as my text message alert.

Hahah. Apakah ini? Jodoh kah? Hahah

I so wanna work in KLIA. So hopefully I will do well in the interview.

I am so freaking nervous!

It's on Tuesday March 30, 2010. 10 am.

I am excited, but with all these assignments that I have to submit by 1 April

BLEARGH!

Not only that, I'm starting to lose my willingness to get up and go to classes, do homework, go to the library and complete my work there,

I did all of those last week and I did it almost everyday.

What's happening to me!?

Ini pon dah ponteng 2 classes. Just because I don't feel like waking up.

Easter holiday spirit has arrived a week early, and that's baaaadd.

BTW I had a dream last night.

Colonel Sanders was running amok outside 7Eleven in which I was with Hazim buying Slurpee.

He was holding a gun and he was fatter than usual.

Shot a couple of policemen and threw a bomb to the left and right buildings beside that 7Eleven.

I held on to Hazim so tight, getting ready to be squashed by both buildings

But nothing actually happened after the bomb went off.

Turned out to be a joke for April Fool's Day.

The buildings yang dah runtuh were prettily decorated with Christmas lights that said "April Fool", merrily going on and off.

April Fool's Day has also arrived a bit too early, though I have no idea why it bothers to show up in my dreams because I've never even celebrated this day. Maybe someone's planning something................

Wake up call!

2010-03-23T09:23:00.003+08:00

I got a call from Bank Negara this evening concerning my online application through UKEC.

The caller asked what's my current grade/whatever.

And I said 2:2

And he said, "Oh, our requirement is 2:1"

Shit gile. Haha.

That was a tough wake up call.

Two of my online applications have been rejected.

Most of the guys have got interview offers by the end of this month.

I don't want to feel like a total loser because it's not the end of the world yet, but I can't help myself. :/

Is it because I swore too much in my last entry?

Tak bleh tak bleh, mesti determined! Mesti tough! Mesti strong-willed! Mesti persevere! Mesti gigih! Mesti

Ayah said don't worry about finding a job, focus on your studies first.

Takpe, rezeki ade kat mane2. Ni bukan ayat penyedap hati. Haha. If you pray and work hard enough, God will help you. Help yourself first, then Allah will help you. InsyaAllah :)

Ceywah.

2010-03-20T06:10:00.001+08:00

You're an ass.

2010-03-20T05:45:00.007+08:00

You mock people

You're ignorant

You never do what you say

You're incredibly rude

You never use the word 'thank you' or 'sorry'

You're insensitive

You think you're cool

You think you're powerful

You feel powerful when you ignore people

You're psychotic

Your ass is damn heavy

You look down on people

You take everything around you for granted.

You're cheap for things that are actually good for you.

You aren't grateful for your friends.

You use people

You think you're better that anyone else

You're an ass.

You're a dickhead.

You're every negative word in the Urban Dictionary website.

I've never known anyone as lousy as you.

Someday you will learn your lesson.

I don't know how or when, but I can't wait for that day.

That's right, you. Bloody you.

I loathe you. *middle fingersssssssss*

For You!

2010-03-18T14:17:00.000+08:00

Kawen

2010-03-18T05:39:00.004+08:00

Great topic. Once you've started to talk about it, you can never stop. Especially if you talk to my friends. Haha. Ade sape2 terase? Hahaha. Ke memang semua orang macam tu?

The reason I put kawen as my post title this time is because I'm quite surprised by the number of people my age that are already married or will be getting married soon. Sekarang memang orang kawen awal ke?

A friend of mine is engaged. I thought he was just kidding but as I was browsing through his pictures on Facebook, I saw his fiancee's comment on one of the pictures. I recognize that girl because he once showed me her picture. And I was like, "Uuuuuu~" sorang2 sebab I found their engagement day album in her profile. Sape suruh tak private kan. And I don't know why, but I'm actually excited for him.

And then I was like, wow.. ramai nye dah kawen. I'm feeling so left out. HAHHA. Takdelah. Like a friend of a friend dah kawen and kawan kawan lagi sorang pon dah kawen. Senior pon ramai dah kawen. Senior tu takpe lagi la kot, but still, if I am their age now, I wouldn't dare ask Ayah nak kawen. I would be thrown out of the house. Hmm over.

Now, seeing that everybody is busy marrying themselves off, I realize that you don't have to be like 27,28 to get married. It depends on you. Whether you're ready or you're not ready. If you're 19 and you're ready, go knock yourself out and get married. Haha I think that's a bit tipu lah, 19.

If we're married now (21) and by 22 dah ade baby omaigoshgilegilegile.

I wonder whose kenduri I'm gonna go to next.

Once I can eat without a single rice falling out from my plate,

Once I can drink without a single drop of water being spilled onto my clothes,

Once I can clean the house like Jasmin Anis does,

Once I can prepare more than 100 dishes and desserts,

Once I can actually remember where I put my other pair of sock,

Once I can cook without dipping my sleeves into the meal,

Then, only then, will I be ready to get married.

See, I'm still a little child.

HAHAHHAHA. BUDGET NAK MAMPOS! *muntah hijau*

Miss you, sayang.

2010-03-12T16:44:00.003+08:00

I miss Sunway Pyramid.

I miss watching people skating on the ice rink. I miss laughing at some of them.

I miss being indecisive about what to eat. "Ape-ape jelah, tapi taknak McD" used to be the usual answer.

I miss the stall that sells Banana Peel.

I miss walking through the Asian Avenue and gawk at the cute clothes sold there.

I miss going to Forever 21 and complain about how the barangs there are unnecessarily expensive.

I miss queuing to buy the movie tickets.

I miss the tasty and SWEET popcorn.

I miss the toilets, clean and spacious. Perfect for camwhoring.

I wonder how you're doing, Sunway sayang.

What new shops have you got?

What new surprises have you reserved for me?

I seriously miss you.

Hahah ;p

Tell me about it, stud.

2010-03-07T07:04:00.003+08:00

His clueless face is just adorable :3

His sincerity shows when he sang Having My Baby to Quinn, and I find that hilarious. Muke bersungguh gila. Haha.

The fact that his character in the story depicts the not-so-bright jock just makes him more likeable.

Self-reminder

2010-03-06T18:11:00.005+08:00

I want to own a mansion without having trouble paying the installments,

I want to drive a Bentley without being afraid to pay for gas,

I want to use electric toothbrush without worrying I might be spending too much on a toothbrush,

I want to comb my hair with a hairbrush from Evita Peroni without actually loosing my hair to pay for it,

I want to pat my face with Lancome loose powder, smiling as I do so,

I want to wear Chanel latest design purse without having to worry about having no money to be put inside it,

I want to eat as much steak as I want, without getting fat (this is not possible I know, haha)

I want to have my own lady personal trainer and not worry about staying in shape,

I want to buy every newly launched cellphones and PDAs that I like and make bling-bling on them,

I want to be a boss in a corporation without being hated by my colleagues and employees,

I want to be able to cook various recipes without worrying about the costs of the ingredients and materials.

I wish to have finer things in life.

Who doesn't?

But I'm thoroughly content of what I have now.

Those are just desires, not even wants or needs.

Kalau nak betol2, I have to work extremely hard for these things. Or just marry a wealthy CFO, or CEO. Whichever applicable nanti. Hhihihihhiihip. <--- gelak gatal Aloyah.

But the things that we want aren't always what we need.

I can live in a cute little house, and be happy.

I can have my rides in public transport, and be happy. (well, not really)

I can just use the regular, non-electric toothbrush, and have a good day

I don't have to own a comb pon sebenarnye.

I don't wear makeup pon sebenarnye.

The Chanel purse, I still want.

The steak pon, I still want.

HAHA

Finer things in life don't always come in the form of expensive materials, as long as you're content and happy, your life is fine, I think. :)

2010-03-02T21:55:00.002+08:00

Last name

2010-03-01T02:14:00.003+08:00

Last week had been kind of a pening kepala week for me. One of the factors that contributes to that is finding a group for Financial Strategy presentation.

We have to form a group of 4/5 and the group members HAVE to be in the same tutorial group, which is why I was so pening kepala. Semua orang buat group dengan geng sendiri and everytime I asked somebody whether he/she dah ade group, semua cakap dah. Sorang je takde group lagi, a Chinese girl named Amanda. So we agreed to be in the same group. What's panicking me is that the assignment is due 25th March, takde la lame sangat dah. Ni group pon takde.

Fortunately, at the end of the tutorial session, one Nigerian girl came up in front of the class and asked out loud, "Anybody doesn't have a group yet?" And Amanda raised her hand so quickly that it made me jump.

So we exchanged phone numbers and email addresses. Being the smart ass that I am, I couldn't even remember my uni email address.*sarcasm* So, I jotted down this email address

hannah_horcrux@thiscertainwebsite.com

But the Nigerian girl (Ruka) insisted that I give the uni email address.

Me : Sorry, but I can't remember my uni email address.

Ruka : It's easy, it's just your first name, dot, your last name @ herts.ac.uk.. (and she started to write hers while telling me this)

I stared blankly at the piece of paper, trying hard to remember how my email address is written because I have two last names. So I couldn't figure out if it's f.noor-mohd, or f.noor.mohd or f.noormohd.. HAHA.

Me : Err..

Ruka : OK. Is this your last name? (points at the "horcrux" in my email address)

Me : No, that's my...

Ruka : OK so it's h.horcrux@herts.ac.uk.. ok?

Without waiting for any of my objection or whatever, she folded the paper and started asking about when should we have our discussion. I wasn't focusing on the conversation. I was trying so hard not to laugh at the thought of Ruka thinking that Horcrux is actually my last name! HAHAHHA. That would be soooo awesome!

Yours truly,

Hannah Horcrux.

Beautiful song.

2010-02-22T06:25:00.005+08:00

One of the American Idol contestants sang this song, so I looked it up on YouTube.

For those who have trouble keeping up with life, I give you this song :)

2010-02-21T23:22:00.002+08:00

What do you when you feel like you're the worst person alive?

Help me out here, please.

I so wanna go to sleep and never wake up...well, not die lah. Amalan tak cukup lagi.

Macam Sleeping Beauty. Ekekeke. Dahla tidur je, tak gemok, cantek je. Hahaah.

Dilemma

2010-02-21T19:52:00.004+08:00

I just can't wait to be back home.

All this pressure, menyampehs jugakla.

Should I work here when I graduate? Or should I work in Malaysia?

If I were to stay here and get a job, I can't imagine how much money Dad would have to spent initially to pay for my accommodation, food, clothing, travelling, bla bla bla. However, the gaji for accountants here boleh tahan....that is, if I do get a job.

Yela, tak try tak tau lagi kan.

Dad said don't give up without even trying. I have the opportunity to be here, alang2 tu, gune la sehabis mungkin.

Pastu CV plak kosong, no part time job, no voluntary work, no charity work..

I want to get a part time job, but that will put my studies at stake. I can't even manage the 4 subjects that I'm currently taking, let alone managing a part time job.

That will definitely kill me.

But the thought of having extra money....mmmmm...

Pastu visa plak! Aaaaaaaa.

I don't know why I'm so pressured about jugak ni sebenarnye.

Small things je pon. HAHA.

Kesimpulannye, I miss Malaysia so much that I don't feel like living here anymore. But that's just for now.

Just like before, I feel much better after letting it all out here.

Sheesh, don't you have any friends Hannah that you have to let it all out in here?

I am so not motivated right now.

2010-02-19T04:55:00.003+08:00

The 50's rocks!

Anyway, the PCD DVD came in the mailbox yesterday at lunch time and I immediately pasang and start to follow what Robin Antin was telling me to do. Semangat nih! (Maklumlah, lunch semalam makan quarter pounder + fries hahaha). The workout was fun, actually, even though I didn't know what I was doing half the time. That's why aerobic depan cermin seronok sebab dapat tengok if we're doing it correctly or rather funnily. She was like "bring out the inner pussycat in you!" "with attitude!" with background musics that sound sort of like 'bow chicka wow-wow' .Haha.

At first it was pretty fun, but lame-lame tak larat. Robin Antin said "one more time!" and I'll be shaking my head as I'm doing the exercises, wheezing all the way to the end. Pretty hot, dontcha think? HAHAHHAA. The best part is I woke up this morning and I felt like there's a gigantic rock on my head, and my body was aching all over and still is! I was exhausted and sleepy all the time pastu kelas ade banyak pulak kan harini. Haih. All the sacrifices to get a toned body *snort*.

Aja Aja Hwaiting!

I just bought this online.

Bahahahhahahahahhahhaa.

I wish I will use it on a regular basis. OK I will, it cost me quite a fortune and it will be a waste if I don't use it.

I can work out with Mama nanti, but Ayah will have to get us two long poles. Hahahaha.

Can't wait for it to be here! :D

Ailafyuh :)

Cursing?

2010-02-02T00:44:00.003+08:00

Haaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Disgruntled Hannah is disgruntled.

How do you deal with your anger?

Someone told me about a hadith that says that when you're angry, sit down. If you're still angry, lie down. If that doesn't work too, amek air semayang.

Being me, those things work, but not for as long as I want them to. I don't know why but I think it's because I don't want to let the anger go. I want the problem to be settled there and then. Or else, I'll go to bed mad.

I prefer to write when I'm angry, throwing curse words in every sentences ahhh pure bliss. Somehow cursing always makes me feel relieved, and a little less tense. I'll feel a lot more better if I can shout and curse at the same time. That brings out the indecency in me. If only beeping sounds are real, then I can curse all I want and nobody would have to hear what curse word I've chose. Hahah.

Cursing's not ladylike, and it'll get you into trouble, if you curse at the wrong people at the wrong time using the wrong word. HAHA.

As part of my new year resolutions, I'm trying to reduce the amount of curse words I use in my daily life. But I find it very hard, especially when I'm alone and Mozilla Firefox says 'Not Responding'.

I feel better now.

Personal message: I WILL NOT watch that movie tonight as a sign of protest! Humph!

Everything's better with cheese

2010-02-01T02:07:00.005+08:00

This is my dinner! Haha!
It's brocolli + carrot + cauliflower + stir fried prawns and mushrooms + olive oil + black pepper + lotsa lotsa lotsa grated mozzarella cheese.

Dump them all together and put in the microwave for 6.5 minutes.

So much for being healthy, with all them cheese. Plus I drink Coke for dinner. Lame kot tak minum. So, I just let this meal pass, just this once. Haha.

I have to drink plenty of water to wash down the cheese-ness in my body.

I'm starting to blog about food. Am I turning into Yana Azhar? Hahahaha. Gurau je!

EVOO

2010-01-27T23:11:00.004+08:00

Say hello to my little friend. Hahah.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil or EVOO.

It can be used as :
- make up remover
- moisturizer (preferably before going to bed)
- cooking oil

Useful, natural and healthy, although a bit expensive.
It makes your eyelashes longer, orang kate lah, I'm not too sure myself.
Although it's a little bit late for a new year's resolution but I think I'll just proceed with it.
Better late than never.
This EVOO thingy is my first step of being healthy and natural :)

A healthy skin is a happy skin. pffftttt.. that was cheesy.

Dear God,

Soften my heart, because now it's so hard that it can't feel neither regrets nor shame.

Clear my mind, because now it's as murky as can be.

Beautify my akhlak, because now I'm as ugly as can be.

Give me strength to fight with my own stubborn self.

Make those satans go away.

Make me clever and smart.

Make my mind as sharp as a dart.

Gilelaa pantun. Hahah.

Oh, Dear God, please make me less lazy to exercise.

Pray, check. Now what's left to be done is work for it, which is the haaaaaaaaaaaard part.

Hwaiting!

Cage

"I won't let anybody put me in a cage,"

"You know what's wrong with you, Miss Whoever-You-Are? You're chicken, you've got no guts. You're afraid to stick out your chin and say, "Okay, life's a fact, people do fall in love, people do belong to each other, because that's the only chance anybody's got for real happiness." You call yourself a free spirit, a wild thing, and you're terrified somebody's going to stick you in a cage. Well, baby, you're already in that cage. You built it yourself. And it's not bounded in the west by Tulip, Texas, or in the east by Somaliland. It's wherever you go. Because no matter where you run, you just end up running into yourself."

Dear Bloody Barclays

2010-01-20T22:41:00.003+08:00

Deliver my debit card soon, you bloody blue bank or I'll pray that you will go down like the rest of the banks in my Corporate Governance text books. You don't want that, do you? I only own a few hundred pounds, so if you collapse, I won't suffer as much as your shareholders, or the other customers who have gazillions of pounds in Barclays. You will be the next largest corporate collapse in the history of the UK since the collapse of the Lehman Brothers in 2008. And at that time, you will start to regret for not delivering that bloody debit card of mine and you will realize that it's all too late.

BAHAHHAHAHAHA

I just added the Live Traffic Feed.
One question, kalau aku masok blog aku sendiri pon masok kat Live Traffic Feed tu eh?
Nampak macam syok sendiri baca blog sendiri.

I added that widget because earlier today, I just found out that this particular blog I was reading has that bloody widget in it. And I wasn't suppose to let her know that I'm reading her/his blog. Skarang sudah kantoi and she probably won't like it. Hahaha. Damn you, technology!

If you don't like me reading your blog, I'm terribly sorry. But then again, there's no harm in reading people's blog. It's not like I'm trying to voodoo you or anything.

I have this trouble of staying in focus when studying. I'll be sooo focused for a while but next thing I know I was blogging. Hehehe.

I can't wait to be home this June.

Does anybody know where to get the countdown widget?

Know this girl? She's young and her voice is unbelievable sedap. I get goosebumps every time she sings on very high notes. I think her version of Taking Chances is as good as Celine's.

Apart from that, notice the two girls at 1:12..? At first, I didn't think that they're being rude or anything but 1 comment from a Youtube (bobbiegirl1000) user got me thinking. Her comment says :

"It's a case of lacking good manners, that's all it is. It's not only Filipinos, lot of Asians do, typically, just green-eyed, and they try to show it without diplomacy. Kabastusan, in all its form. The Koreans showed more respect and appreciation for Charice. They're not an insecure race, that's why."

Oh money
Why humans are killing each other for you?
Oh social status
Why do you matter so much for some people?
Oh designer clothes
What makes you so ridiculously expensive and yet you're still pieces of cloths sewed together?
Oh designer bags
What makes you so different that the imitated ones?
Oh fine cuisine
Why do you cost a fortune when you are served in the littlest amount possible?

These things have fooled the human minds to think that they need one of them - or maybe all of them, to live a happy life. I'm one of the humans that have been fooled. Luckily I have someone to remind me that all of these adalah dunia semata-mata. Hahah

Too much of everything can make you sick

Happy New Year

2010-01-04T05:12:00.002+08:00

It's been weeks since the last time I updated my blog. I'm gonna nag a lot in this post so consider yourself forewarned. Haha.

So it's already 2010 and the most famous and most frequent question asked when we enter a new year is "What is/are your new year resolution(s)?" Well, if you ask me, the answer will always be the same year after year - to stop being a procrastinator in every thing I do, especially studying. Tapi tak penah nak achieve la kan. That's why that has been my new year resolution for so many years, including 2010. Haha. Let's see if I can achieve it.

My new year celebration was really unforgettable. It started of with a scene in Edinburgh, can't remember the exact location though but it was near to a volcano. There was this little pond which has gone icy and keras and there were kids sliding across it from one side to another. Then came us, Me, Yana, Muya, Iman, Oggy, Pakwan, Ilmy, Sharir, Tauwfiq, Rashaad, and Ridhwan. We stood by the frozen pond and started to made attempts to stand on it. Nak pendekkan cerita, last2 semua orang dah berdiri atas pond tu except for me, Iman, Sharir and Rashaad. They were all ready for me to take their picture when the ice cracked and pecah. Semua pon lari la selamatkan diri. I was jumping kat tepi tu dengan "omaigod omaigod" tak berenti2. Sumpah mcm dalam movie 2012. Haha. But the new year's eve ended beautifully with fireworks just above our heads at Calton Hill. :)

Throughout the Scotland trip, we traveled a lot by train and while waiting, dengarlah lagu. Dah dengar lagu, mestila ternyanyi sikit. Dah ternyanyi, rindu la plak nak karaoke. Haha. And then I came up with this superstupid idea.
Nanti dah balek, I wanna go karaoke-ing. I wanna bring only 1 person with me. I don't mind who, but that person must:
1. Help me select songs.
2. Let me sing solo for as many songs as I wish to.
3. Not complain of boredom.

*Lepas karaoke, jom makan, aku belanja.
Hahahahhaha. I miss karaoke-ing so much that I don't think I wanna share the mic when I finally get the chance to karok. Hahaha. Bapak bongok and selfish. I think the only person that can stand me in that kind of situation is Andi.

I have to stop getting annoyed so quickly.

Happy 2010 everybody!:) Can't wait to be home for the summer! And that's 6 months away! Hurray.

Holidays, I'm comin'

2009-12-23T06:49:00.005+08:00

Muya's here! :D

Can't wait to go shopping!

My Hogwarts sweater's here! I've been bragging about it in Facebook, Twitter and now here! Hahaha. It's a little bit small but I like it! :D

No need to show the picture lah kan sebab kat semua tempat pon dah upload.

Anyway,
My free time today had been mostly filled with watching videos of people singing. First I got stuck watching all Leona Lewis's performances on 2006 X Factor. And then, I got hooked with all the karaoke/instrumental versions of my favourite songs (all of them involves high notes and amazingly crazy vocals, which I don't have). And you wouldn't wanna be in the same room as me when I got hooked with karaoke-ing. And then, I watched this amazing Philippino kid Charice Pempengco. Her voice is phenomenal!

And after that I got realistic and sang Ashily - Lucky. I think I did very well cewah. Hahaha. I even thought about recording it and send it to Umar. Hahahahha what a joke. Naseb baek tak buat kalau tak memang kene bahan la.

If I have a voice like Leona or Charice, I wouldn't waste my time studying things that I don't really enjoy learning. But then again, if you have a high level of education, people will respect you more. I'm just sayin'.

If I have been granted 1 wish that allows me to combine features and body parts and personality to form a person (or myself), here are the stuff that I think I will put together :

1. Hair - Nicole Scherzinger
2. Eyes - Angelina Jolie
3. Lips - Avril Lavigne
4. Skin - Son Ye Jin
5. Legs - Beyonce
6. Body - Kim Kardashian. hahahah
7. Voice - speaking voice would be Sophia Bush's. Singing voice would be Leona Lewis's. Asing-asing eh. Haha.
8. Height - Claudia Schiffer
9. Personality - Mama
10. Money - All of the above combined together. Heheh.
11. Accent - Cheryl Cole
12. Style - Holly Golightly (Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's)

Maybe this combination would produce the ugliest woman on planet Earth, I dunno.

I'm not being ungrateful for who I am, this is what we call berangan. Dulu siap buat list lagi, tapi dah hilang.

Ape ape pon, sweater dah sampai, jeans dah sampai, blouse dah sampai.. skarang tinggal The Lost Symbol - Dan Brown. Hope it'll be here before the Glasgow-Edinburgh trip!
