Open to be Vacant

Did I tell you about my job. I mean the Barista job in city. I used to like my job when we were still using the old espresso machine. Until my boss change it, sold the toaster, and my two colleague quit the job, I started to hate my job. Thou he raised my pay. But the new machine just sucks and everything was bad, especially he even sell off the shop. Yea, I have a new boss, a lady boss. She looks arrogant in anyway, the way she talk just irritating as if she is great. That's not the whole point. She even cut my working hour. I used to work almost 20 hours or at least 14 hours a week. Now I'm down to about 12 hours or 18 max a week. That's kinda bad. Especially when I'm taking up my own living expenses here. I don't really feel myself in this job anymore. Until that day, Cassey called me and said her company is hiring. Well, I kinda envy her high pay job before that. I went to the interview today. Not really an interview after all. He asked me to see him tomorrow at Dandenong, and passed me a stack of paper, document I mean. Yes! It's DANDENONG!!! Hell it's like freaking far!!! >.< but well, I'll still go tomorrow and see how is it going then I'll decide if I'm gonna quit the Barista job. Wish me luck peeps. Cheers~

W • O • R • K

I spoke to a friend, he has lose his motivation and passion in his current job. Well talking about work, human live to work? Or do they work to live? It's a chicken and egg question anyway.

I love to work, especially with fun and passionate people. This sounds naive. In the corporate world, it's all about status, politic and power. I've gone through that. But nothing affect me because I'm not really gonna take that job as my career. That was just a short period of time. I'm talking about working in Kopitiam Asia Pacific Sdn Bhd, if you so happen to know what company is that. Of course, there were much politics happening in there. I'm blessed that I'm not one of the people who sacrifice because of politic. I love my colleagues. They were nice and helpful to me. I'm a new girl, know nuts about corporate environment. They brought me through. That could be one of the job I love so far.

I've been working pretty much since I was 15. Sis wanted me to get myself a partime job during my school holiday. I'm kinda lucky. Every job I get was decent and I feel grateful to all my bosses. So many kinda job, retail, promoter, teacher, sampling, sales, tester, marketing, etc etc. I remember each and every job. They were all great. I always love my bosses. Because they are great to me.

More and more pics, but I don't know where those picture went. LOL. As time goes by, sometimes I miss the time. With some people.

In a working environment, you see faces. Friendly face, polite face, fake face, dick face, stupid face, dumb face, sneaky face, angry face, fucked up face and etc etc. This is life. Life is all about work and work and work. Wonder if you work to live, or you live to work?

100

100 days to go.

That's quite fascinating to thought about. Planning had been going lately. Plans about what I'm gonna do after I graduate; plans about my holiday; plans about my future; plans for my finance. Everything has to really plan it out.

Well, actually I just got back from my holiday. Shouldn't be homesick so soon. But thinking about the assignment coming like giant waves, now I miss holiday already.

Since I'm here already, nothing much can be done even thou I miss my holiday. So, I think I shall plan out for my coming spring holiday. Wee~ So much to plan about. I shall also plan for my holiday when I'm back to Bolehland. Well, I do have much to do. Hope everyone is still there for me.

Life isn't easy over here. To sustain for my finance, I really have to come out with a brilliant plan. Cut my diet is the first thing I'm gonna do. Well it's not solely to save, but also to slim down. I've freaking gained 3kg in Malaysia. >.< That's really bad. Besides that, I will really have to WORK hard to earn that money. But assignments came along, since this is a semester with only assignments and project. No exams at all. Well, it kills, in a way. When it all pile up. But, luckily, looking at the schedule I sorted out, didn't really pile up but it comes like waves. Every week is a due date. So, I will really have to work hard on this too.

In order to work hard on both the thing, a healthy body is needed. But unfortunately, flu and tonsil virus has got to me. Down. Boo~ Sicked for the past two days. Sorry for keeping you guys worried about me. I'm well, pretty much I guess. Will recover completely soon.

Now, what I really need is some motivation to get my work started. Had been procrastinating much. Move girl! Move!

"I can't wait to be back."

It's Me, in Melbourne

It's autumn here in Melbourne. Leaves are getting red and falling all over. Everyday seems to be so chilly and gloomy. It's kind of a depressing season though. I'm sleeping more and more. As days getting colder and colder. Gosh, and my food intake is like, I wouldn't want to describe about it. It's really... BAD!

Well, I've stopped facebook for the time being. Ridiculous right? Sounds like something that will never ever happen on Lily. This is like a miracle. But yes I'm doing it because it's my final project period. Work load is crazy. I haven't even start any one of them and they all due the same week. Two of them even due on the same date! Why on earth lecturers wanna do this to us?! Gosh! Anyway, luckily I just killed one of them last week. I mean my assignment of course. It's a group assignment. And I have this really uber madness cute groupmates. We had our presentation in class the other day. Was not too bad. I hope I did well. But I'm kinda nervous about it though. I'm now working very hard on my Network Literacies final major project. Which requires me to think broad, think deep and think more.Trying very hard to figure out what to do. hmm... Hope it won't take me too long to figure out.

By the way, I went to the Level One of Barista training in Toby's Estate Espresso School. Was great and I learned a lot. Which I could hardly learn it back in Malaysia. Well, it was just level one. So much practice to do actually. I'm still not very good. Way to go. Petrie really like me. But as he started to expect much from me, I feel the pressure. Hope I won't disappoint him. I don't like to disappoint anyone. Anyway, I'll do my best. ^^

"I like it. I really like it. It was the sweetest thing ever. The effort, I appreciate it much. I mean it. Really."

Coffee • Food • Seduction

It's been a week. Hmm... This has been a busy week. Really busy with work, homework and outing. Of course all the outings has to do with eat. LOL. Don't know since when I realize that I love to eat. Like really love to eat. Everyday, I've been thinking about what's new to try out today and what's to cook today.

Worked three day straight. Practicing my barista skill. Well, I'm almost there I guess. Almost. But not good yet. I passed the test and got the job of course. Gonna go for a barista training. Boss gonna pay for it. Seems like some quite advance professional course. I'm going professional. LOL

Coffee, is not something I fancy. Cause I tend to get dizzy when I take coffee. But something weird, I don't experience that over here when I drink while working. I've been drinking quite a lot. But won't really get addict to it. Hmm... I'm weird.

Over the weekend, I had a lovely gourmet dinner after work at cousin's house with cousin's family and also Vincent and Pearly, which was superbly wonderful. Let me tell you about the dinner. What's on the menu?

Entree- Nyonya Pie Tee

Soup- Mixed Fishball with Chicken Soup

Main- Oso Busso with Nasi Minyak

Dessert- Pineapple Sorbet with Mandarin

They are just wonderful. It's well made by my cousin of course. ^^ What else we had? We had another dessert for the day, which is a nicely made chocolate mud cake. They are really nice and we can't bear to eat it. Just too beautiful to be destroy. Anyway, we ate it too.

Much laughter going on that night talking with someone with some life experience. We were talking about this sex issue again. Gender issue I mean of course.

What is the first rule to get a guy? Knowing what you have and what you can do, which is what you are capable in catching a guy.

What is the second rule then? Get a target of course, but in Vincent's word, it's call VICTIM. Yea, victim. Is it that bad to be target? Hmm... Understand your target and know what your target have.

What is the third? Which is the most crucial one. Knowing how to create this very thing call - 'illusion'. Which actually laugh my ass off.

Illusion is another words is conning. Being with someone is about giving what he/she desire but in your way. Not necessary to be the proper way. Giving people hope is an illusion. Illusion to drive someone to something. This is not cheating, nor lying, nothing to do with trustworthy. Say it in an ugly way, what does a man desire when comes to a women? Nothing else but just S.E.X. Nothing more than that. And Vincent agreed it. So I asked him, after sex, there is nothing else to look forward, what drive a family then? Hmm... This has to do with seduction then.

He told me there's 3 types of seduction. What is it?

1. Physical seduction

2. Mental seduction

3. Spiritual seduction

Hmm... Well, the 1st and 2nd type is understandable. But what is spiritual seduction? I'm gonna see him and each time I see him, he is gonna explain a type of seduction to me, which means I'm gonna have a few more lesson to go. LOL. I'm looking forward to it. I think he shouldn't be a physiotherapist but he should be psychiatrist or maybe a magazine writer. Interesting.

By the way, I made my house a box of Lemon Lime Sorbet. Show you guys some other time. Time for homework. Ciaoz~

Worst Ever

Today happen to be my worst day ever in my life. Really that bad. Don't ask me why, but I'm feeling super miserable now. Can never imagine this ever happen. But actually it's just a normal incident which would happen anywhere. So, am trying not to think about it. God! Please clear my mind!

Anyway, haven't blog about last Sunday's potluck. Was indeed a lovely potluck dinner. Having them over for dinner was fun with eating, chit-chatting and mafia-ing. We had a lot of food. Like really a lot that we can't finish. In the end, everyone has to take some of the leftover home for tomorrow. What do we have? Pasta, Onion soup with bread and cheese, Meatball, Chicken Wrap, Cake, Anzac cookie, and oh ya the most important- softdrinks! They are just simply wonderful. When can we have our next steamboat? huh? huh? huh?

Once Upon A Time as Milk Maid

Read post from Xini yesterday. It brings back a lot of great memory working with Uncle Johnny, Cassey, Xini, Chris, Fang, Julie, Janet, Wei Jie, Nick, Xiao Wen... etc. So many of them. Working as what? Milk Maid of course. HAHA. I miss the time playing around with kids, educating them about the goodness of milk, playing games with them and roving from kindy to kindy, state to state. It was really fun.

Every morning, we start working at 7am. Waiting at office. Uncle will be there and wait for us. Uncle Johnny, he is a 70+ years old uncle. He is actually the father of the ladyboss. He drive us around KL area with his memory on the way to places and he tend to get the wrong way. He love telling us stories while he is driving. What story? Stories about the old girls she drove around and all the incidents about his past. The best thing is, he can't stop repeating. Oh ya, and one more thing, he will forever pay for our meal. Even if we have meal allowance when we go working at other state.

Working as the 'milk maid', we always get to go to other state by ourselves. I'm one of the driver of course. I enjoy the time when we get to travel. I just miss the time. Awww....

Someday We'll Know

Someday we'll know if love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know why I wasn't meant for you

This song just can't stop singing in my head. Have been so into Nicholas Sparks's movie. I know, he is an author, not screen writer. But I really love all the movie of his book. To some people they are just another lovey dovey movie. Same goes to me actually. But still I enjoy it very much. Envy the story that happened on the character. I must be out of my mind being a high school girl again looking for TRUE LOVE am I? LOL. Too much of these.

Well, lately haven't been kinda relieved after the tightest period of the semester (yet to say). Have been struggling on my part time job. I've been learning really hard to cope up with the standard. I'm just not good enough. I'll be evaluate soon. But I'm just so anxious. Never in my life time being so miserable when it comes to work. I'm also keeping to look for another part time job beside this. But can't seems to find any. Hmm... Showing you one of my work. Really love this job but, it filled with uncertainty.

Just saw something. And it just gave me a big hit all of a sudden. But this is my own problem thinking about it. I always envy. Really envy. Why I can't be someone like that? No matter how much I did, how hard I try, I just can't be like that. Feel so pathetic about myself. Some people are just gifted. Can't compare, can't even think of being like them, because I just can't. Not that I don't want to, it's just can't. They just shine. I'm forever to be the one shadowed.

"Lets start loving whole heartedly. "

Human Sense

Have been working for a month in this company as Marketing Assistant. This is really not an easy job. Seems easy but not as what you'll expect. It's way beyond. As you start to work, you tend to speak wisely. But never show that you are that wise. This is kinda ambivalent, but this is the reality, people!

Talking about people, there's these people who love to complain. But their complaints are just ridiculous to the max. For example, there was this lady complaining about our opening time is too late. Do you think 8am in the morning is too late? The reason why she said its late is because she cant have our cheap breakfast just because her office hour starts at 8.15am. What can we do?? You got office hour, our worker and crew don't need to rest?? Go get your Mc* breakfast la! They start at 4am in the morning! RIDICULOUS!

My life have been so so so packed. I made myself. Don't really know why, but I just can't slow myself down, can't let my have an inch of emptiness. Empty just freak me out. But, being busy is very tiring. Very very tired. Now I wish I could have some good rest. Maybe I shall sign off and down to bed now. ^^

There It Goes

OMG!! It's already 2009!!!
I didn't drink liquor, gamble, go for party nor gathering with a bunch of friends. All I have for New Year Eve is work... I was there at the One Utama countdown show at 988 Booth being a 'wishing girl'. Yes! Wishing girl! I let people make wishes. hahaha. We had a 10ft high big balloon and we paste people's wish on it. When the clock strike 12, we let it up to the sky. OMG, it was so nice. But I'm not the one letting go the balloon but still sitting at the booth doing database collection. So sad. I watch the firework alone, all by my self. How pathatic. sadness...

Was also my last day of my internship at 988. So, I'm finally FREEEEEE...
But at the same time I have to announce that, I'm starting school TOMORROW!!!

OMG~!there goes my holiday...

With the 988 cruiser car

Before we leave to the 3 countdown show

Yeay! I'm the super trainee

This cute entertainer play with me whole night long. haha^^

It's time to 'OFF AIR' instead

2009

I'm ending my internship in 24 hours. Feel a lil bit sad, cause I'm leaving the place I go almost 6/7days and 20/24 hours per day.haha. Sounds a lil bit torture huh? But I really enjoy my entire two months internship here. By the way, this is a very good experience tho this is not my career in my future. This is more like a short term part time job to me. hahaha.

Tomorrow is the big show, 2009 Countdown Party at One Utama. What is my new year wish??hmm... let me see... I want to go overseas this year; I want a wealthy and healthy year...
Basically thats all I wish for. haha. So easy-satisfaction...^^

Christmas Eve

I'm counting down the days to end my internship at 988. Anyway, I think I will miss those days. Although it's quite busy all the time, but I get to do a lot of things and see a lot of things. haha. Before I leave this company, Orange already leave before us. Yesterday was her last day, and so happen it is Christmas eve, so we gave our seniors a treat. We also celebrate Phooi Fong's birthday yesterday, end up we had so many desserts. When you eat too much, it is kinda torturing(a lil bit show off here, haha^^). Of cause we had a photo taking session(can never miss this).

Its was Christmas Eve, of cause its time for PARTY!!! Had one at teddy's house with a gang of newly known guy. Teddy and Woo describe them as 5 & 6 years old kid, and I'm kinda sure of that after yesterday's party. By the way, its kinda fun. hahaha^^

I know I know, pics ma...Go check out in my facebook

More updates about my internship coming up, stay tune...^^

Life as a Trainee

Sorry!!! I didn't mean to abandon you... My Dear Blog.^^

Even since I start working, I don't really like this life. It's not because the company I'm working in is not good enough, but its life get to be stuffed with all sorts of events, works, and yea, gossips. Gossips about everything. About how bad that person is, what he/she did in office, or what he/she said about that person....dadada... Like what people always say, there's people there's gossip. You know, when I start working, I suddenly feel that my knowledge is not fully used in what I'm doing now. What I'm doing now is not what I thought I would do in my future. Or, my expectation on the field of my work is to high??Hmm... Maybe this is the way of being a trainee...

By the way, actually in a way I do enjoy my intern life.haha

Lalala

OMG!!! I'm having a flu again. I think I catch a cold from office. This stupid office is really freaking cold everyday.

I just finish work at 1.30am in the morning. hahahaha. I just finish work from the Star Live Concert. The concert is really superb and awesome. The performance is great, is just the sound system really bad. There are a lot of artistes who performed in the show, of cause I'm not one of them. Artist like Harlem Yu, Y2J, Fan Fan, JJ Lim, Danny One etc. Its really a great show, but I didn't get to watch till the end. Sad. Anyway, we are there since 3pm and its raining cats and dogs. We have no choice but to stop by at the A&W near by and wait for the rain to stop.

Aiya, I'm lazy to narrate...See yourself la^^ ngek ngek...

988 Rocks!!!

988's lengzai lenglui.

The opening stage. With fake snow.

We are sitting at VVIP area. Thats why we are just this near to artist.^^

Sick Escape

I've been blogging quite a lot lately. Wondering did you get bored of my stupid story?? Well, just get used to it, this is me after all.

I'm staying at home today. Escaped from the boring office and two beat six work. Of cause i did not skip work, I'm legally and officially on leave aka MC. You know why?? Its the ulcers like flowers blossom on the tree and my mouth will most probably be the tree i guess. haha^^

Well, I wouldn't be staying home doing nothing. I'm planning to do my Co-op report and start with my new series. But I'm a bit stuck on my report, don't know how to start. I heard the 'superb' student she wrote 12 pages for the two week log book, what the heck did she wrote?? I novel or a 8000 words assignment?? I thought log book is just a simple brief of what have you done over the week. Well, maybe she is just so 'excited' about her job.

Well well well, I should now go take my medicine and gargle my 'tree' i mean mouth with the smelly syrup. Ewwl...

Two Beat Six

I'm left alone in office. Okay, not really alone. Ed, YH, Gl, MH and Red's are still in office. But I'm the only trainee from 9 left in office. They all went out. Some more not coming back tim. I've been doing so many two beat six things. Taking stocks, clearing the office stuff, arranging the old magazine...etc. All two beat six thing lo. I don't like. I feel like not learning anything. How to write in my report? Or, maybe I should tell them: Thats not in my job scope. HAHAHAHA.

Okay okay, I know I'm a chicken. I dare not say that to them. Sigh...

Oh well, I should have expect this to happen. I'm a trainee after all. Luckily I'm not doing my final intern in my 3rd year. I'm not saying that this company is that bad. But, not that I expect. Maybe my expectation is slightly too high. Yin said, my expectation is always so high that sometimes people might think it's about over and I'm too subjective on it. Maybe I really am. But, I always want the best out of everything, that is not wrong right? Like what the professionals always say, you'll never know when a great chance is waiting for you. So, you'll have to always do your very best out of everything. This is also a part of your self-expectation that everyone should have. Yea yea, I'm being so self-centered and subjective again..

PS. If you don't understand the word two beat six, please refer to me. Thank you^^

Updates

I hate the feeling of being from 1 to 0. I guess you don't really understand what I mean. Okay, let me give you an example, Its like now you have a sweet and later you lost your sweet. Get me??No?? Alright, another one. At this moment you are everything to him, on the next day, you are nothing to him, not even labeled as a friend. I know you get me.

Oh ya, I watched Twilight today. Was nice. But Edward is not charming enough(This is purely my own opinion, no offense^^).

I start to feel bored about my job. Actually doing the same things almost everyday. Cutting paper, calling winners, posting, walking up and down, da da da... I'm counting the days to end my intern. Hmm... This sounds a bit sad. But, after that, I think I will miss the job. OMG! That sounds so ambivalent.

Nevermind. Let me show you some updates of mine.^^

Don't worry, I'm not a shopaholic. These are stocks for the cruiser, and I hold all the way till the carpark.

These are the cartons of 7up Revive we (JUST me and Fong) carry with the trolley up to 19th Floor. There are 40 cartons of it.

This is my cute cute Senior (Senior as in she go into the company 1 month before me).

Obviously, this is me with Fong.

Alright, I'm signing off now...TUDU...Till next post^^

Bad Day

I'm really so f*king 'faint'(=swt) today!!!
It came out suppose to be a not bad day. I got fever yesterday night, but I still went to work today. I'm still having cough and flu. So, like usual, reach early, sent mail to my senior. Then as usual, do this do that, busy whole morning doing nothing. hahahaha
Then Min Hui asked me to go out(follow cruiser out for cross) today. So I said yes and I get to drive the big car. hehe. Then went to pick up another 'senior' and off we go to our 1st location. I thought she is a senior she should know more then I do. But I came out quite disappointing. She don't know anyway, ok, maybe it's just in Cheras and Ampang area. Then I drive whole day long. The 1st cross was wonderful especially the part we get to eat my favourite dessert, sweet potato. Then we finish up the 2nd and 3rd cross and then we are ready to go off. I was waiting at the other seat door, waiting form my senior to open the lock. Then, she was asking me where is the key, and I thought all the while she was holding the key. Then, nevermind. I go check at the butt. I can't open it. The key is inside. YES, THE KEY IS INSIDE THE BUTT AND ITS LOCKED!!! How? Luckily our phone is with us. Then call up Min Hui, get her to get the spare key to us. And we waited freaking long. We waited there without money for one and a half hours. OMG! I'm freaking tired and dehidrated, especially when I'm sick. This is really a piece of shit man!! I'm so bad luck. Ok, in the mean time, I'm also lucky at some point. Oh ya, and I'm back to doing cruiser again. But this is just a part of my internship.

Something did happen. TO ME...

Embarrassment II: Sorry Boss

OMG, another embarrassment...
What is going on to me??!! But of cause I can use the sore throat and cough that I'm having and caused my blurness to be an excuse. HAHAHAHA
But this is really embarrassing in front of my whole department and my BIG BOSS!!!
He came in, and I thought he is one of the winner who come to collect their prize. Of cause, I serve him politely(I think so la...). Then he replied me and I didn't thought of anything until my supervisor call my name and shake her head. Then followed by the whole office laughing. Alright, I know what happen le... -_-!!!

OMG OMG OMG~~!!! @_@

Embarrassment I: Sorry Mike

OMG!!!This is the most embarrassing moment of my life. Some more its in front of them!!! OMG, how I wish I could dig a big hole and jump in and cover myself with whole lot of soil. But, I'm so lucky that he is so nice and kind. But still he laugh at me!!!Anyhow, I'm so so so so so so SORRY!!!家艺!!!

I've learned my lesson. I will do my homework...
