sound of the suburbs

WOW.

This is the third entry of the month. I just feel like writing recently. Not really a writing, but kind of meditation, talking to myself.

Yesterday one of a good friend of mine when I was studying in UNIMAS came for an interview at my office. Luckily, the interview went well. Hope she'll get that job.

[3 days back, my director was asking for my help to hand him some resumes for the job opening. The moment I handed him the CVs, I remembered that I have a friend who needs job badly. So I called her, asked her to email me her resume, and she did. Before this, she's working with DELL in Penang and because of the recession, shes been retrenched.]

Sometimes, I love my job very much. Sometimes I hate it. To understand 1001 types of human behaviour is the most difficult task to handle. Rules and regulations in the Corporate office really makes me dizzy. Formal office attire, office politic, sitting in front of PC etc etc. But what to do, sometimes I just love my job. I love whenever new staff joining in, I will be the one who knows about it first. I love interviewing people, I love interacting with different types of people. Its all about people, anyway. And, ermmm, not to forget, its a well paid job. Of course its about money as well. hehe.

Sometimes I think it would be pretty interesting if I were a hairstylist. I can wear whatever I want to work. I can wear hot pants on sunny day or just wear my favourite jeans to work. Should be no problem. No need to sit in front of the wardrobe each night thinking what to wear to work. No need to spend 10 mins ironing clothes before go to sleep. I can color my hair to any color I want. I can perm my hair whenever I like, cut it short when Im bored, makes other people look beautiful with their new haircut. Hmmm..Sounds interesting, ait..

The other dream job would be, scuba diving instructor. Can't imagine spending time at the island, meeting new friends, dive into the other side of world and of course travelling to all of the beautiful islands.

Or to be a lecturer? Maybe it sounds a bit boring and casual, but its kind of interesting job to me. Dealing with teenagers and be the coolest lecturer ever in the University. Change the way of teaching, change the students' mind set. Cool, eh? And of course, its a well paid job.. hmmm..

Anyway, I have to work because I need money. I need money because I need to travel.
WORK + WORK = MONEY
MONEY+ MONEY = TRAVELING

The most important thing I want to do now is, to TRAVEL
Dont ask me when I want to get married, because its not what I want to do right now.
I just want to travel all around the world. I dont care if Im broke at the end of the month, cos its all worth it.

p/s: This entry has nothing to do with above title

missy haruka

Introducing a lovely friend of mine, Miss Haruka Hana.

She's an independant artist, I could also say she's an activist and a feminist.

If you got a chance to browse her collection, in most of her drawing you will notice a girl with bandages all over the face. I've asked her once long time ago, who's the girl in her drawing, she said the girl is just nobody. Then I asked her again, why you cover her face with bandages? Then she replied, "because she's ugly". I know she tries to portray herself in her own drawing, BUT BELIEVE ME, she's not ugly, at all.

To me, Haruka Hana is adorable and beautiful. She's one hell of brave lady I've ever known. She's independant and she got a very beautiful voice. I love the way she dressed which remind me of Anime cartoon character. One friend tagged her in Facebook, so I decided to stole some of the pics and write something about her caracteristics which differentiate her from others.

I just hang out with her last week. She just came back from a long journey, she spent 2 weeks cycling from KL to Penang. So, guys, what are you waiting for, she's single for god's sake :))

* if hana knows i'm writing about her, i'm dead hehe.

damn it damn it damn ittt

FCUK.
I want to have a short hair but I'm too scared to cut it off. Too scared if it makes me look skinnier. When i look at the photo album, my hair is just the same since (i dont know when) but it just the same fuckin hair style. *blerghhh* Okay, forget about the lame hair story for a while.

On the last two weeks I hang out with ayie. I had nothing to do on Saturday so I went to her house to have some fresh veggie. We ended up laughing over some stupid jokes and after that went to Sunway Pyramid for dinner with Pika, Lin and other friends. Haha, it was my first time going out with Pika and Lin for girly girly outing, anyway. Before this we just met at gigs and never hang out after had good time together at shows/gigs. It was on the Earth Hour day so, some of the restaurant switched off the lights for one hour. Went to Helo Bali for the first time (yeah, I seldom go to clubs!) but I really enjoy myself for being surrounded by cool girlfriends and some of the cute chinese guys :) hehe. Reached home at 5 a.m, for god's sake!

Nowadays, life is just average. Have to save money for the next trip, which happens to be next month!. But what to do, human are weak, I just cant stop myself from being an on-line shopper addict. Things getting worst since I know how to use Maybank2u and CIMB clicks (yeah, I'm quite old-fashion). Even worst if I have to spend my weekend in KL doing nothing, which I will end up buying more clothes and thinking about buying new wardrobe for extra storage. My cash is getting low nowadays, so I have to swipe my sister's credit card so that I could buy winter jacket for myself for our next trip. (i dont have credit card, and i dont want to have one). Damn it...I need courage to stop buying and start saving!! I feel like i want to slap myself for over spending this month!!

I HATE MYSELF!!!

short hair is HOT!

I can't stop myself from staring at gorgeous girls with short hair. To me, with short hair cut, it portrays that women are brave, bold, independent and not to forget, sexy.

I love Winona Ryder, Keira Knightly, Naima, Natalie Portman because they are freakin' hot with short hair.

gfrgfggjhh

What the heck..
It's been raining but I have to wake up to go to work..
I wish I could just sleep until the afternoon, take a nice lunch and go back to sleep again...
Wake up for dinner and sleep until tomorrow morning.
Nice, eh?

Dealing with bad service!

Last week was hectic, I had to attend a one week training program at Petaling Jaya. The training was good, it covers everything I need and the trainers were great. *ok enough about work*

Anyway, I have to admit that service quality in Malaysia is like sh*t.
Last two days, I took a half day leave because I need to send my car for service. I have called the service centre for an appointment a day before. They put me at 1.30pm schedule. I arrived there at 1pm. I gave them my car key, and after a brief explanation about what they want to do with my car, I was asked to wait at the waiting area. While waiting, I watched TV, I fall asleep, I woke up, I read almost all of the magazines but it still not done. It was 3.30pm on that time, so I decided to ask the 'customer service' lady when can I get my car back, she said it's still on que. I questioned her what is the purpose to have an appointment if I have to wait that long in a very 'good' manner, maybe a bit sarcastic, (and tried so hard not to loose my temper), but she just kept quiet. I went back to the waiting area, keep myself calm and I got my car at 5.30pm that day.. [ what a bad day! :( ]

Not only that. Yesterday, I face the same problem at the bank. There were six counters there, but only ONE was open. It was so terrible!

Last month (on February) I went to the Post Office to renew my driver's license, there were 7 or 8 counters but only TWO opened. Lotsa people were waiting, so I threw the waiting number away and went back home. (p/s: I have not renew my driving license until now, it's been a month i guess). But I just don't care!!

Movie of the Month!

Last night was very tiring. Whew..I went straight to swimming class after work, and yes, I have little obsession towards swimming nowadays.hehe. It was raining anyway, but Bob said it is okay to swim. Bob is my swimming instructor. He's been very strict yesterday, he asked me to swim non-stop until my feet cramp. At 8 p.m I took a shower and went to Bangsar for dinner. I was starving so I decided to eat veggie meal on banana leaf and fried chicken + fresh orange juice without ice. Nyum nyum..

Oh yeah,

You people should watch 'Slumdog Millionnaire'. For those who watch Oscar recently will know. This movie has been nominated for 10 Oscars, directed by Danny Boyle. It is about a boy from the slums of Mumbai won 20 million rupees on India's "Who Wants to be a Millionnaire" TV show. Good movie, okay, go and find the dvd now!
