My whole week last week was almost 9am – 8pm/9pm everyday…It was that long for me.. we had our practical training, Theory training and after that i had one on one meeting with my Master trainer..CRAZZZZZZZZZYYYYYYY!! I realize i could not tahan that long anymore now.. i remember when i was younger, i could do a lot of thing and still had the energy to stay up till late night but now..odoi.. Battery everyready ja la sia pakai.. no longer the energizer bunny i was.

But with that long week, i must say i had a pretty good week too. I learned a lot from my Master Trainer. He gave me tonnes of  advices.. advices that maybe one day i will share it with people that i think needs it very much like i am at the moment.

He even bought books and cd’s for me to learn from.. I find it hard to get a Master trainer who really cares for their team nowadays… so to have him do that to me, I really am thankful, touched and appreciative towards his sincerity and generosity. Ahhh… i feel like crying pula now. Hehehe..

I will definitely spend time with the books and cd’s… i have so much to learn from my master trainer.

oh if you are looking for nice and beautiful fruit baskets for anyone, Cherrymoonfarms at facebook is the place you wanna check. Heard it’s nice

Anyhooo.. im not gonna waste your time too much in this post.. so im gonna end it here now, lagipun sia sudah mengantuk gila ni.. mau tidur. Nanti sia kasih sambung lagi cerita in the next post.  I have soooooooo much to share with you..like A LOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!

Ba ok la… Nite peeps..be good to yourself now…:)

SO TRUE!! HE IS SUCH A PAIN IN THE ASS!!! INFACT I THINK THAT NITE.. SOMEONE STUFFED CACTUS INTO HIS ANUS!  I thought he was my friend but i guess i was wrong on this one, he should have this sticker, sticking on him 24 hours! But then again, i should have known better.. waktu kerja dulu sama dia, ramai juga my colleagues yang lain tell me..he is really cunning and kuat tembirang..i guess now it’s true! Oh well..

Tembirang la kau sebanyak mana..akhirnya..tembirang kaling kau tu akan terpecah keluar juga seperti mana kau tipu sia yang kau akan simpan my secret dulu kan?? TSK TSK TSK.. kau sudah tipu sia sekali.. sia masih terima kau sebagai kawan, now when you said my wedding reception is crappy.. i think that’s a lil too much Mr and i don’t think i can forgive you that fast this time around! As friend i think you should be happy for me and  not coming to my wedding and  bitch about it to another friend of ours and walk away from the dinner reception as soon as we walked in. So insulting i tell you.. no respect langsung! Kalau jeles cakap.. jangan bitch about our wedding to our other friends who was sitting next to you the other day..and if you can’t afford to have garden wedding for your wife.. MAN UP DUDE.. wedding is all about your budget and preference at the end of the day..BUKAN siapa lebih kaya and siapa punya wedding lebih grand! Or telling others that our wedding ceremony should have been this way and that way.. Let me ask you this ,WHO ARE YOU AGAIN???!!  DID YOU CONTRIBUTE ANY THING IN THIS WEDDING? IF NO… shut the fuck up already and MAN UP TO YOUR WIFE and tell her..sorry woman i can’t afford garden wedding like this. We just have to do it in a hotel ballroom!  I mean,you must be hurting and full of envy that nite…. that you turn into such a sour man!

Aiya, ni la ba ni kalau orang yang suka tembirang and menunjuk and inda mau mengaku kalah.. susah!

Hmm…banyak lagi sia mau cakap.. tapi cukup la sampai sini ja ni malam.. sampai sini ja la sia meluahkan geram and sakit hati sia.. marah memanjang pun teda guna juga…

Bagus lagi sia cakap pasal weight loss supplements dari buang karan cakap pasal dia.. bulih lagi sia cari cara macam mana mau lose weight…LOL!

Like i said in the previous post, because of my shout out i posted in facebook..i received an advice from someone whom i have lost contact with for more than 10 years.

We found one another in facebook recently (i think 1 month after i got married) and have added each other into our friend list. All these while, i have only spoken to her twice in facebook. Once to congratulate her on her upcoming (then) wedding and recently wishing her happy birthday. That was the only contact we’ve made over the past 10 years.

And with that two contact we’ve made, she seems to be thinking she knows me very well already. ( well, that’s how i feel..i mean she must be right?? Because she can write me an email and give me an advice… AMPLE advice some more she said, LOL)

I for once won’t and will never give an advice to someone whom i do not know very well , whats more if i don’t know the whole story. I think it’s plain rude to do so and most probably you will only be looking for trouble by offending your friends apalagi kalau you like to go on an ASSUMING MODE! That’s really no good!

Well this dear friend of mine did exactly just that…she send me an advice, going on ASSUMING MODE on the whole situation… and the way she gave me the advice…OMG!! It came across to me, not as an advice but pretty much like someone who has nothing else better to do but just being plain NOSY!

Dear.. ko gaduh ka ngan hubby..if butul ko gaduh geng..
kita isteri yg baik baik gaduh dlm bilik kn..
ample reminder as a good fren..
no hurt feeling kay muah..

That’s exactly what she wrote to me in my FB email….Now if you were me… wouldn’t you be offended with that? What does she meant by “KITA ISTERI YG BAIK BAIK GADUH DLM BILIK KN”??

Is she trying to tell me im no good as a wife??Is she telling me she is a good wife? What and who gave her that idea? Is it because she recently became someone’s wife so she is a good wife now and have the whole idea on how to become a good wife already??

I mean, even if i wanna fight with my husband in public, is that your problem? Even if i wanna scream and shout .. is that your problem? And kalau pun sia mau bernaked in my fb…will that be your issue as well and will give me an advice?

As human, i believe everything has it’s limit… and giving advice not knowing the head and tails of the whole matter is one of them….secondly, if you do not know that person well… that’s already your BIG BIG BIG Sign telling you…BACK OFF! Geez….

If you are wondering did i reply her email back..HELL YEA i did…LOL! Let’s just say her reply back after that …. TYPICAL THEM…..
I’m close minded person, different religion ( what does this gotta do with the whole thing ar?), She met the wrong person( that’s me she referring too) and i am someone who can’t accept advice apparently….

“thinking to myself, won’t everyone react the same way as me kalau you don’t know the person well apalagi bila teda contact for 10 years plus and then out of the blue.. Your friend mau pandai pandai bagi advice and main assume ja the whole situation without knowing head and tails of it??” Kalau kau inda react like me… i salute you la that you can let people “intrude’ your life.

Hmmm… anyway.. i think i need some serious Branson Missouri vacation already la… too much shit crap, nosy people lately in my facebook and i definitely need to delete those people off from my life…… Husband says it will do me good which i agree with that 100% too!

- Anyone can claim to be your friend but some friends are in the name only. The grief caused when a close friendship turns sour is as bad as death. This evil impulse we have! Why was it ever formed? HOw did it manage to cover the earth with deceit? Some people will be your friend as long as things are going well, but they will turn against  you when trouble comes. A real friend will help you against your enemies and protect you in the fight. Never forget such companion in battle share the results of your victory with him. -

How true is that? I was reading Sirach in the bible today and came upon this… this phrase really reminded me of all the friends that i have back home..the one that i used to call my  HIGH SCHOOL BFF…now they all have become my FALSE FRIEND.

I don’t think i want to explain what really happen between me and them…sakit hati saja.. satu hilang sebab duit ( im not rich,my parents  could not give her what the other gurl parents could give her) and banyak lagi la she hurt me and the other one…. hilang@MIA@ do not bother to keep in touch..since she started dating this man who promises her the world and give her loads of moolah…but never actually have the guts to marry her really….because ………..you fill in the blank la.

Sigh.. anyway, let’s check this out  orlando vacations im sure you will enjoy it If only i have tonnes of moolah.. i don’t mind going there for vacation!

Oh well..keep wishing emelda. Keep wishing

It felt like it happen only yesterday that i  got HITCHED officially and now looking back it’s  nearly two months since 18.07.09 ( few more days it’s going to be two month) .

Both of us was so busy right after the engagement..we didn’t really get to enjoy our new status  as newly “ENGAGED”  and now we are already on the roll with the wedding plan.  The only time we had for ourself to enjoy our newly engaged status was our Krabi holiday..LOL!

As soon as we got back from kk.. things just got into fast farward mode ( that’s how i felt) i have to study and prepare my training module, going into meetings after meetings and then straight on to conducting training after training. On top of that, every weekend now we have to do loads of travelling, checking  out wedding stuff, flowers, venues, cakes.. make up artist..etc etc and not to forget..i have RCIA class to attend. Wahahahahhaahah… FULL BLAST YO!

In month of october, we have wedding course to attend, Feb flying back to KK for wedding interview and  i guess when we are there.. another loads of stuff to check and see. I am lucky to have my sister Anitha to help me out with kk side wedding reception..if not..haha, im sure im gonna pull my hair out!  Not a pretty sight to see when the bride start pulling her hair isn’t it..LOL!!!

Ahh.. even writing this up made me feel “waaa..so banyak kerja” but im not alone… I have a strong support from my family back home, sister and brother is running the whole show there, im so lucky to have them as my siblings… kalau inda i have no idea how am i gonna deal with the whole situation i believe.

In Kl, i have Dan’s mom, brother and cousin  sister helping us out and of cos… my strong macho man Daniel.

Saw this NC short term health insurance, that reminds me..i need to get my insurance stuff done too soon. ah..another to do list..

As you all may already know, we spent our weekend at Krabi this time around as our post engagement holiday. It was really fun! I really enjoyed the short weekend trip.

We arrived on Friday afternoon only to be greeted by rainy, cloudy and windy weather. The hotel coordinator told us that the weather has been like that for the past few days and may last till weekend. My heart sank when i heard the news.As soon as we reach the hotel, we waste no time and went out to check Krabi Pranang beach area. Before we stroll down the beach, Dan suggested that we should rent a motorbike to go around town and head we go hunt for motorbike rental place. Five minute walk later.. we found the place. For 200 baht per day (rm20) and we have our own “superbike” to travel in Krabi.

I was kinda nervous at first when Dan start the motorbike, it was my first time riding bike with him and that was his first too after his accident 10 years ago, LOL!! But after a while, we both had fun, laughing and Dan’s making funny sound and comments while riding the bike…ah.. that was quite an experience for me..oh did i mentioned? I also pandai pandai start motorbike and rode for about 200 meter back and forth..heheh that was fun..but i dont think i will do that here in Malaysia. Sini scary la.

Anyway, on the second day weather was still  gloomy and our island trip has to be cancelled due to choppy sea and unpredictable weather. We decided to extend the bike rental and took a trip down to Krabi town about 30 km away from where we stayed. At town, we took a boat to I can’t remember the river name now but it was suppose to bring us to this famous Krabi landmark. Along the way, we stop at one spot where we were allowed to go into a cave..that was scary yet exciting for me.. i never been to a cave before in my whole life..so that was the first (again) for me.

After the cave trip, the boat man took us to canal of mangrove.. i see lots and lots of kayu bakau “menari”. The way the tree intertwined with each other…really look like they were dancing. But the first thing pops in my mind when i saw the mangrove  was the dogs that was thrown at pulau ketam i wonder what happen to those dogs… sigh.. i hope every single of them was rescued now.

After the boat ride, which cost us 300 baht each (rm30 per person for an hour) we were suppose to go and climb this tiger cave with 1200 steps! Yes, you read that right 1200 steps.. but hahahah..someone said..er.. lets cancel that one and just go to gastrpod fossil beach.. and hop we go to that beach..sampai sana…hmm it was kinda dull for us.. so we didnt want to waste another Rm20 per person just to see batu or siput kerang yg sudah bertahun lama di dalam laut and jadi fossils… so we just did bit of shopping and went back home straight to hotel.

All in all.. the trip was really relaxing,fun and enjoyable  despite being disappointed for not being able to go to Phi Phi island and enjoy the white sandy beach as how Leonardo Dicaprio get to enjoy it in his movie called THE BEACH.

Dan and i promise we will come back to Krabi again soon to enjoy the island next round.

For now, i need to check this fat burner out ;P

Friday, exactly 7 more days from today i will be done and over with Jakarta life and i will start my new journey in KL. Im am so happy and excited about this but at the same time worried and nervous about it. Im not so sure if my training here did gave me enough confident and knowledge to bring it down to the trainers back in KL. I do hope i have though.

It was hard for me here in Jakarta. That’s the truth..i did enjoyed the time here (people are warm and friendly) but at the same time i had fair amount of “sufferings” as well .

First it was the food..i had hard time adjusting to the food here. Food that was familiar to me back at home was really costly here in Jakarta, cheap food means i have to take the local dish which honestly doesn’t really go well with my taste bud. Then came the language.. this was the toughest part for me. Because of the language barrier, i had hard time trying to understand the training module, speaking to the local and getting around town. You may think they understand us Malaysian but that’s not true..our language is different from them! So if you are coming down to Jakarta..i  suggest that you get a good language book in hand in case you don’t know any local here! Our pronounciation and the way we say it is totally different from them! We may have some word similar but mostly..nope!

Jakarta city offer you alot of shopping malls  and most of them are as big as Pavillion back in KL and barang barang sini pun inda la murah sangat. I can say, it’s similar to what kl can offer you and since price doesnt differ much from kl, i  didnt shop for the first time in my oversees trip.

Jakarta is a metropolis city. Offices was build on sky high building, huge, tall and beautiful! (rental pun sia dengar cantik juga ) But malangnya, the houses here are so scattered that it looks so messy and almost.. menyakitkan mata (i think they need the Outer Banks homes agency to help them )  and the road condition in this housing area really reminds me off jalan Ranau to Sandakan… betul betul rosak cuma beza dia ..you get this di dalam perumahan jakarta di tengah tengah bandar and bukan di kampung.

Im sure by now, you guys know that Jakarta is not the cleanness city you can ever get. Orang sini buang sampah merata rata tempat!  Once i was in a cab on the way to one of the club, the cab driver senang saja buka window trus buang sampah dari dalam kereta like its not a big deal ( memang pun its not a big deal for them but i was so shocked) and another time, i was walking with one of my colleague here..tengah syiok syiok bercerita.. he just spat right there and then in front of me!  I was speechless when that happen..sia kegelian trus, LOL! Mau tell him off..but hmmm.again i don’t think its unusual thing for them.

Yup, thats how i see Jakarta… You may see it differently from me..but hey, we are not the same people right?

But one thing i love about Jakarta is the people… they are so nice warm and lovely! I guess that will be the one thing that i will miss the most about this beautiful yet crazy place the warmed and friendly smile of Jakartan’s!

Anyhow,  some of you have asked me is it worth to come and visit Jakarta..of cos i would say yes! Come and see the place yourself..experienced it! You need to do that to know the place yourself…don’t take my words 100% ..again like i said..we may see it differently tapi i won’t recommend it if you wanna come here alone for a longggggggggg holiday! LOL!!

Pearl of the Orient@ Pulau Pinang

Yes, i just got back from the island today, loads of things has changed there since my last visit back in year 2003…i can’t remember most of the place now but i enjoyed the short trip. It was only a day trip this time around but im sure the next one will definitely be a longer trip.

We arrived at the airport around 9am and my new colleague was kind enough to bring Jeff and me to makan place in the morning before heading to the gym.

A nice view from the Gym...yup while running onthe treadmill..this is the view you'll see

Gurney area didn’t change much..the stall that we used to go and makan was still there..the beach area was still the same except the mall apparently got a new extension to it. Back in FF years, whenever we go to Penang it only meant one thing…PIGGING OUT TIME! Yea, we were so crazy that we wallop anything and everything..that time i could afford to makan like that la..but now, heh..i have to control my food intake..yea la, i don’ t workout as much as before anymore..metabolism pun kurang dy..susah juga kan kalau tiba tiba ada orang yg mau kena pakai AED to revive ourself back kan??LOL!! Palis-palis!

Jeff S.

Today also marked the last day im gonna be seeing this dude(Jeff)… and that’s mean when i’m back from Jakarta and my holiday…i will be on my own already, i am definitely nervous because one week of learning and trying to understand the culture of the clubs is not enough..but i hope with the training provided in Jakarta…im good to go.

Hmm… nervous, nervous! But, whatever it is…life have to go on kan? And with that said, i thanked Jeff for everything..for teaching me and showing me around the club for the past one week. Hope to see you again! Im sure i will call you bila me balik from Jakarta..im sure i have forgetten where and what i need to do first thing in the morning when i arrive the club again in August! LOL!

Other note… i’m leaving soon..sob sob..im worried definitely, i have never been outside of Malaysia for so long all by myself although im sure my colleagues in Jakarta a nice people  but i am worried about sleeping at new place all alone on the first day..tau la kan…strange place and all..i hope i can sleep..aiya. I hope teda la bunyi yang bukan bukan di tengah malam..kalau inda, siapa la sia akan call?? Aaaaarg! “Guntalou juga sia ni, jangan kama”

I must remind myself to bring one of Dan’s baju….just to “tipu” my otak at least for the first few days, LOL!

Thinking about leaving them behind make me miss them so much already…aiseh! Sob Sob!

Do you know that apedixin, fenphedra among others is a natural appetite suppressants? Apparently they are the best in diet pills in the market now… hmmm…..there’s even a pill that can make you loose weight and at the same time increase the size of a women’s breast! How crazy is that?? LOL! i don’t mind trying that one …hahahaha…as long as the size doesnt go to Pamela Anderson size la…i think i can handle it…wahahahhaha.

Anyway, back to the real post..enough crazy stuff..i dont need diet pills anyway..i just need to workout. LOL!

Have you ever wonder where have all your friends gone too? What happen to them, where they are now, how are they doing and all?

I Do…i wonder where have all my “friends” gone too… it’s like they have vanished into thin air..although, occasionally i do bumped onto them in the mall…but thats about it…they dont make an effort to call, dont make and effort to turn up to any of the function that i invited them to go…nothing! I wonder should i call them to my wedding when i get married? Are they worth the pain and money??

“Pain= to remember their names, Money= sending the invitation card and not to mention the dinner course on the wedding day”

It’s very disappointing and not to mention PAINFUL to know that we were once very close but now its more like out of sight, out of mind friendship.  I’ve made an effort to call them…to catch up with them..but it seems like..im the only one who is keeping up with the effort,..i am the only one who gets excited whenever i bumped onto them in the mall.Sigh.

I really wonder what made them change, is it because im not married yet?  Is it because i do not have kids yet? Is it because im no longer needed or is it because i am not marrying someone rich and famous and my circle of friends  is not from the famous people group? WHAT IS IT??

Geez…sometimes i can’t help but wonder…what was the friendship based on in the first place….SICK i tell you.
