Max Max~

I have a feeling that my blog is dangerously falling into a long deep coma, so I’d better update it whenever I can, like now. Hehe… Erm, not much of happening lately, or even if there is I’m too lazy to recall. Yeah, busy and snappy lately. Have you ever heard of anyone twisting their neck when sneezing, immobilizing their head for a week? No? Okay… No, no I’ve not heard of it too, just asking out of curiosity. Oh, I got another puppy! He’s the cutest thing you’ve ever seen! Okay, puppies are usually cute, I know, but I just love this one so much. His name is Max, but we usually call him Max Max, cause he just so tiny and cute~! Oh, he’s one crazy dog when he’s not in the playful mood. God, his (playful & crazy) bites hurt! I am seriously suspecting he sharpens his fangs everyday. Okay short update, but well, better than nothing. Haha… *ouch* Note to self: Not to jerk head when laughing.

Ada Magik Dalam Badminton

Literally translated: There’s Magic in Badminton. Lee Chong Wei is my Badminton Idol from now on!!! Yeah, he’s the man! Gosh, He scored 6 points straight not making a single mistake to catch up and BEAT Lin Dan. I was very frustrated thinking he was losing but Chong Wei proves that he’s the Magic in badminton as the commentator said. Wow… every point he got after lagging 6 points from Lin Dan who was one point away from the match point, I was jumping up in the air and my brother claimed the whole of TJB2 could hear my shouts. -_-“ And note to self: that I should wear thick mittens next time I watch, my palms were so numb and aching after the Chong Wei vs Lin Dan game due to too much vicious clapping.

Luckily I wasn’t at the stadium. Anyway, I was too occupied these days to realize that M’sian Open was in Kuching!! (cries and bawls). Anyway, I hope Chong Wei will continue to improve and be ranked world number one and MAINTAIN the title for some time if not a long, long time. :D

Okay I felt a tad sorry for Lin Dan, he’s quite leng zai. I don’t know why he reminds me of Jay Chow but I don’t think Jay Chow is good looking yet I think Lin Dan is good looking? Weird. Pity he lost, but well I still prefer Chong Wei :P Arghh.. then I forgot to watch the doubles cuase I was rushing with my darn slides.


*God* Blame it all on the presentation on today. Grrhhh, I never had the idea how tedious making slides is especially when you have an even more tedious wafer making, SPC, and reliability concept to insert WITHOUT falling asleep. Gosh…

Okay, the presentation sucks, I was rambling off theories that were obviously making everyone yawn and myself dying of boredom. Though all my 1Si SVs congratulated my excellent job after Ms. Suhaila left, I don’t know I have a feeling that it wasn’t great. Well, it’s cause I forgot this darn formula on Cpk. Argghhh!!! How come I didn’t know Ms. Suhaila was a Prob & Stats tutor!!! I didn’t think she would be interested in SPC so I paid more attention to the REL tests and tools. Arghhh….. Gosh there goes my hope for IT to pull up my grades.

God, I’m so lack of sleep. But I’m just glad the darn presentation is over. Now, I’ve time to blog after like… 2 weeks? Haha…

06/06/06

Okay, I flipped open my handphone today, and it showed me 06/06/06. Nice number, so I decided to blog. Haha okay, it’s a lame reason, but well, I’ve been quite lazy to blog so it’s time to make up, especially now that I’m using office time.

Let’s see, (tracking back) okay, there’s this long Gawai + weekend break, so we had a total of 4 days to laze. Been occupied, and no I’m not hau lien okay :P , I really can’t make it for all those call-on-the-day appointments and meet up since the schedules are arranged well beforehand… And I guess I’ve seen more than enough of colorful layered cakes…

Then my black dog went missing some day within the 4 (forgot which) so my maid and sis went on a mission to hunt him back. He usually returns after wandering around for an hour or so, but it was nearly lunch I think, and he’s not back yet. I couldn’t be bothered. Yeah, I’m the cold-blooded owner… Haha… Was busy la… Suddenly heard my sis shriek “Ah! Hola!” (dog’s name), and then she laughed like mad woman so I shook the piles off me and went to see. The stupid dog fell into the big deep drain in front and he didn’t make a sound. FYI, my dogs are stupid and hardly make a sound. He was sitting there… eww.. so dirty… the drains quite clean, but he’s dirtier than usual mah… Then my maid had to take the 2 meter high ladder to go down to pick that stupid dog up. Sigh…

Okay then there’s this time I was waiting for Myemma but she never appeared. So I SMSed her say “Come back, chop head”… Then when Myemma arrived she said her handphone was lost… *gasp* So she borrowed my phone to SMS her phone to ask whoever picked it up to return with reward la… I totally forgot about my beheading SMS… Haha… Imagine whoever picked it up and read “Come back, chop head”…

Anyway, Myemma’s really, really lucky because the guy who picked it up decided to return it to her. *Wow* Then SPL reminded me my name on Myemma’s handphone was… well something else. Lucky I didn’t need to go meet the guyla, cause I’m working, Myemma went to get it back herself.

Ok… Actually I’m blogging cause I’ve got brain block for what I’m suppose to be working on. But I guess if I don’t face it the block’s going to be permanent… So that’s all this time.

Winter Rainbow

Another two great posters from Teppi. Which one is nicer? Hehe... Personally, I think the original design is nicer, but it doesn't really portray the significance of roles... Anyway I like both la, but I still love Summer Angel most!

Snoopy Snoop

Hehz, on this sleepy lazy afternoon got nothing better to do (yeah right! 4 reports waiting for me to do!!!) haha... So I shall post some cute snoopy(s) here... I think of the reports already headache... Think of the time back to UTP is coming soon even more headache... Argghhh.. Kays, lets focus on snoopy here. Actually I'm not a fan of snoopy or something, not to say I hate it or what.

My favorite cartoon would be Tom and Jerry, which was my childhood cartoon everyday after school. Haha, it's witty, funny... Well, that's what I had thought then. When I grew up and I had 'real live' Tom and Jerry a.k.a my bro and my sis, *gosh* you'd want to faint and stay dead whenever they are squabbling. It's like the WW3. Sometimes I feel so failed as an elder sister, cause I think I lack the wisdom to 'lead' them to be good towards each other. And yeah, when they are biting each others head off, you've got to be fair and wise (stick the long white beard on my chin) and deal the matter without causing further disputes.

Anyway here are the snoopy some people send some time back. Let's cool on some snoopy...

Confiding before a Stranger

Okay, I shall continue harping on the *arrrghhh* exam. Heh... First the exam unit called me one hour before to ask me go 30 minutes earlier than the time but I didn't get the call cause my handphone was lying somewhere else...
Then while I was steering my car with the herdes of cars in the jam, I saw the *argghh* call. I called back and then she told me the message. Huh... I wished my car could spread wings and fly over the jam but it did not. So when I parked there, and saw the *arghhh* saman guy I saw this morning, I *arghh* cause I used the last coupon this morning. Then I digged into the mini bin and dashboard and found two pathetic ham-choi like but unused coupons. I didn't have time to poke the holes, so I clipped it on my windscreen under my wipers.
I practically ran there, panting heavily, and was escorted into the exam room just in time. Maybe my out-of-breath-look scared the examiner so she decided to take a drink break to let me breath properly. Haha...
The Topics: First was Newspaper, then Numbers, then Future. Okay, I think I got totally the easiest topics. I mean at least they don't need some kind high intellectual brain to talk about. So I just kept talking until she shut me up. Until the last question of the last topic. She was asking "Why are people optimistic about their future?" I was like huh... Okay I have some answers, but I have used them for the questions before in the same topic and I like to give variety and 'trick' her into thinking I'm quick thinking and confident. But well... We'll see when the results are out.
But what I realized after the thing was that in my haste to speak without letting her scrutinize my ih... ah... er... and brain block, I had poured totally what is deepest in my heart (on Future topic) that I would have never even told Myemma. Haha... well, I guess I kind of find it easier telling a stranger who totally has no idea who I am and I will never be meeting again my deepest secret. And let's hope the statement stays true...
*Tip to ppl who don't know. If you want to save time (or coupon if you're not sure of how long you'll be gone), just leave new coupons, and the people will kindly do their job for you.

The Exam

I couldn't fall asleep last night. I was too excited. Sheesh! Haha... I woke up at 6:40am! Imagine my excitement...
Anyway I drove to behind Upwell and waited for Myemma till 8:30am! I was suppose to report at 8:30am. Guess she thought I lacked the oomph for exam thrill. She jumped out of her car, and then ducked in again shouting something like "Parking coupon!". I forgot too so I grabbed the last and only purple color coupun poked the holes and threw it on the dashboard. Purple... I should be safe for at least an hour since I can only remember the green coupon is for 30 minutes parking.
We walked, or rather jogged there, the 'troupe' had left for examination room somehwere out there so we scouted our way there. We barged into some private office where a lady smillingly told us the exam room is one level above. We must be about the n-th person walking into her office. Haha...
The first 30 minutes section I kept yawning and missed some of the one-time-no-repeat tape listening. It's pretty easy, so I eenie-minnie-manie-moe the answers. There was one regarding the credit allowed though that I missed. Well I put down 2k, let's keep our fingers and toes crossed.
Then the reading part. I thought I was going to fall asleep reading the passages. But I really respect the person who actually wrote it. Hah! Being the lazy me, I read the questions first and scan for answers. You expect me to read whole dead boring thing meh? By the time I do, the only answer I'd be able to give is Z (real answers in multiple choice and true/false/not given form).
By the end of the second test, I was starting to hope for it to end soon. I felt like I was sitting for a whole semester of exam. Haha... Okay, it's not that bad. It's just so boring, my mind kept wandering off.
2 essays in 60 minutes. Piece of cake. Except I haven't been exactly attentive to pollution of late. Then in the second essay I have to condemn computer and Internet. Gosh, it would have been infinite times easier if it were the other way round. So I scrawled my really horrible handwritting on. We were not allowed our own stationery. I had to use the pen they provided and it was FAT. FYI, I can't write well with FAT pens and FAT tips too. So my handwritting looked like someone writing his/her will during war. My usual pen is the papermate X-Fine tip. Nevertheless, I wrote away as there was no time to be wasted. The FAT pen kept slipping from my grip and my hand was aching as it was FAT. Hmmmph...
I was the first to leave when they announced you may go now, and I found my car was awarded 7 samanssss plus the guy was still writing an extra one. Grrrr..... Okayla, my oral is at 2:20pm. Need to leave now cause on my way back the jam looks terrifying. Wish me luck! :D

Home Sweet Home

I'm blogging from home. Surprise, surprise. At this time too huh. Well, not too surprise cause first I'm on leave, secondly the telephone line is FINALLY here. Thanks to Carrot's mum...
I'm suppose to go to Civic centre library to find some related books, but well no one picked up the phone so called the State library at the other end of the world. And that huge gigantic hotel-like library has 2 pathetic books on it, one checked out and one safely at the shelf. So I'm heading there to do some 12-hours-before studying.
Urghh, nothing much to say. Got to go cause I'm feeling dizzy staring at the piles of papers and booklets on my desk. Better finish the craps off. Not to mention the lagging weekly reports. I hope my memory can rewind to about 3 weeks ago. *Hmmph... See ya.

State Election

Thanks to staring at the monitor for as long as I am awake, I begin to see it even with my eyes close. Had a hard time falling asleep last night. Plus, my dogs were having fun playing catch among themselves. I'm a very light sleeper thus the slightest noise disrupts my sleep. And then, I even thought I heard someone stapling away in the night....? Hmmmph... God knows what time I actually fell asleep but the last time I checked my handphone time was 1 or 2 am.

I'm really putting aside my blog nowadays as the things I have in my hands are more than enough to occupy my time. But if I didn't blog today, it may stay dead for the whole week... Tomorrow I'm taking leave, Thursday too...

Am I nervous to take the test? I'm not sure... Yet I do not know what I need to do to prepare for it. I have no books whatsoever just 2 sheets of notes that looked pretty boring to me. Well, let's hope luck is on my side and I'd better ace it otherwise...

Sarawak state election is over. I'm actually already legal to vote but they said that since I only registered this time, my vote will only be counted next election. Politics, I'm not exactly very interested in it. But well, I heard from most grown ups (as in those older than me) say that this time though BN still won, but the opposition too won quite a number of seats. Maybe it's time the government treat us better ALL the time, instead of 'bribing' us during election periods into voting for them. People are begining to awake and it seems that Sarawak is heading towards the opposition (DAP) direction. Who can blame them? The government doesn’t need an emergency meeting discussing what went wrong for them to lose so many seats. The fact is right in front of them. But I also foresee the opposition will never win outright of BN if they never combine the ethnic oriented oppositions into one strong one to represent Sarawak and NOT Malaysia. Siapa yang maken cili, dia yang rasa pedas, so I'd not bother to comment on what we were forfeit of from the current government. But my bottom line is, whoever wins the thing, I'm not so bothered, but please don't let Keadilan take over. You may not love the government but there are many more parties, don't blindly vote. Keadilan's state sample like Kelantan is definitely not somewhere I look forward to live in. Otherwise, I still continue to appreciate whoever governing, because, we do live in a peaceful homeland afterall. And for that, we should remember to thank them in our prayers every night.

For anyone interested, the full election result can be obtained
