Final 2 days before 2006. The day start with an appoinment with Ben, our carpet man. He is responsible to put up carpets at our concourse area for our CNY promo. Then met Alex, a very nice guy who have been helping me with producing the deco at the mall. A stop over at Zang Toi and in the afternoon a photoshoot for our over the dateline calendar.
They say that when a man loves a woman, he will climb the highest mountain and swim the seven seas, just to --- . Ive asked my office mates to be the model for my shoot and they agreed. Yat, who is considered as Facility Management can do gal was going to be photograph at the bowling centre while Chok, F&M exec will do the shopping at Zang Toi. With one condition, his partner must be the gal from the salon at our mall. By all mean, if she's lovely Im all set. And yes, she's kinda sweet. The photoshoot went well. But the pix werent. I was trying to portray a couple shopping happily but what I got was a sugar daddy and his mistress. Dissaster!
The thing is, the whole evening became great when, my Chok were paying for everything. We played bowling when we're only suppose to shoot some pix. He even brought us to dinner at Monte's, my fav western food restaurant. Wooing the gal he was. And to my and Yat's amazement, the gal responded positively. And the best part, Chok even told her that he's married with a kid!
You see, Chok is a nice guy. He really is. So perhaps in a way he deserve to receive such respond. But not all guys are that lucky.
As nice as you could be, as much as you would live your life for someone, sometimes you wont get the same luck.

New Year, New Resolution, Same Old Me
8 Months. That is quite a while. Working is busy, at least mine is. 8 months ago, I was employed. And to my surprise, Im still here. Its fun. Working in a shopping mall. Trust me, it is. You go to the office at nine never knowing what time you will go out. Like today, Ive just arrived at home. Well, I stayed back at the mall because me and my friends went to see the Actorlympic at TAS. Its a good one, miss it you shouldnt.
Did I tell you what I do here? Im working under the advertising & promotion department. My work scope? Everything from event organising to buying ice cream for a crying kid. Office hour? Depends on the season. Is the pay good? Sort of. Do I love working here? Damn I do.
Theres always drama here at the mall. Today, a kid was stuck at the escalator and fell down. Then when I was reading through the paper, somebody complain to the editorial that our foodcourt shortchanged him. 1 cent! 1 bloody cent! And Im still looking for vendors for our Chinese New Year promotion.
My whole life has changed. Bit by bit. Social life. New environment, new friends, new problems.
The thing is, I promise myself, that starting next year, I wanna make sure I read my blog at least once a week. My life is like soap opera, and why not bitch about it to everyone. Later.

I'm employed!!!!
Yup.. I'm now officially a person who will not have a life for the 5 years or so.
I was actually fooling around. Went for the first interview wearing a hawaiian shirt, I didnt even know where the office Im applying for was! The interview was held at their headquaters somewhere on the 38th floor in Kuala Lumpur. The only thing I cant recall is, my office to be was at the shopping complex where Canny Ong was kidnapped before being... you know what. The second interview was quite a breeze, I was actually ready. Still, out of all the candidates, I guess I'm the only one not wearing a tie. It was like, hey, am I sure I'm serious about all this? I was then with PuteriUMNO, coordinating their Jom!Baca program. I was in Shah Alam in the morning, in Seremban for lunch, drop by KL after that and wandering around Tampin in the evening. So what if they don't want me!
But, I was called in again, and for the first time I was there, in a shopping centre where I was destined to work at.Meeting the Asst.GM was quite an experiance. It was actually a breeze, to my surprise. There and then, somehow I know I was hired. I've just signed the contract. And in two days time I will be an A&P Executive in a highend shopping centre in Bangsar. So it is said.

Cuti-cuti Malaysia
It's not like I havent been to Malacca. Last year alone, I visited Malacca 4 times. The different is this time I'm off to relax, no more tour guide. I get to take pictures of myself, and play around without having to stop at every souvenir shop! Stay at a resort in Tanjung Bidara (the only one there I guess) The chalet were fine, thought it's a bit rusty there and there. But the food was bad, really bad! By the way it's a ctually a one day one night trip. Here's some pix!
At Uncle Wan's house. If only the 48 inch TV and Playstation can fit into my pocket. Did I mention 48 inch TV?
View from my cabin.
See the angels?
Lucky me. I was like... I'm speechless...
Taste like rubber band!
The food at the resort was disgusting! Notice that only the fries were gobbled up?!
Can't believe they still have this thing. You have to flush yourself, its not automatic...
Tripod, never leave home without one!
Alive and kicking! I woulda have eaten it if not for... hey, I dont eat lobster! Rm 54 per kilo, luckly I dont.
Barbequed Fish in Kuala Sg. Baru.
The fish, or what left of it.
In front of the errr, Red Church? Darn, I forgot the name.
Seriously!
My lunch at Klebang. Siakap Bakar!
I didnt like this stuff untill maybe last few month. Made from fish, now Im kinda hook. Ate 10 of it in Melaka!

With hand on heart
You right from the start
You Taught me to take my part
No cross to bear
No reason to care
My life was all up in air
Four to the floor I was sure, never seeing clear
I could have it all, whenever you are near
I in hand
Did not understand
The plight of the common man
Four to the floor I was sure, never seeing clear
I could have it all, whenever you are near
Four to the floor I was sure, that she would be my girl
We'd rent a little world, we'd have a little girl
You right from the start
You Taught me to take my part
No cross to bear
No reason to care
My life was all up in air
Four to the floor I was sure, never seeing clear
I could have it all, whenever you are near
I in hand
Did not understand
The plight of the common man
Four to the floor I was sure, never seeing clear
I could have it all, whenever you are near
Four to the floor I was sure, that she would be my girl
We'd rent a little world, we'd have a little girl
