RIP King of Pop - MJ
I received a text at 7.44am this morning - Breaking Michael Jackson died, cardiac arrest. Reported on CNN. OK good night.
Radio 4 was my companion during the good old days where TV sucks like hell. I was introduced to motown music and many others too. When one was listening to Jamal Abdillah or our dear Kak Pah, I was listening to Lionel Ritchie, Four Tops, Jackson Five etc.... and not forgetting the melancholy Casablanca.... laugh my friends..laugh..but these are the people that has influence the bit of dignity I could spare in me which is speaking a decent English by Malaysian standard at least....
As what Madonna to me is Queen of Pop, Michael was THE King of Pop. And I would not say never, but one thing for sure...not in this lifetime there will be another MJ. At least I'm sure I would not live long enough to see it. God don't create such big talent only to be replace in such short notice.
So Michael Jackson my man..... RIP and if indeed you are a muslim, Al-Fatihah, May Allah s.w.t bless your soul and put you in His Jannah....amen....
My sincere condolences to MJ's family and fans all over the world.
p/s: Condolences too, to the family members of Farah Fawcet. RIP angel...

~Quotation of the day~
One of the luckiest things that can happen to you in life is, I think, to have a happy childhood. Agatha Christie (1890-1976)
I thought I should have this permanently as an entry. Something that made me realized how true these words are. Many of my friends are aware that I was once a nanny with a so called high profile royal family of this side of the world.
I appreciated my childhood life ever since I took that job and realized what "Grass always looks greener on the other side" really meant.
Life was no bed of roses when I was a child but knowing at that time I had a great imperfect mom and dad who treated me like a human and not some robot has made me completely forgiven them for any flaws they did just like they always did for me and they are still doing it.

School holidays = Housekeeping's Nightmare
As all of you know how preparing for a party is a nightmare, same goes when it comes to school holiday break, it's a nightmare to all housekeepers. Revenue for the hut but hell break loose for us... :(
All because we have some very inconsiderate Malaysian families coming and trying to perk the current bleak economy by travelling local. And spare not, you..yeah..you some Singaporean families who's high mighty kiasu.
But first, I just want to stress here the word is "some". So for those who's not in the "some" level, fret not and for those who's in the "some" level, on behalf of all housekeepers in town, we expect a lil' bit of consideration here. Yes, we..the ones that scrub that swirling wave bowls, make the cribs and many other tasks that are considered as demeaning and degrading job to others.
And the funny thing is, the room rate are cheap as hell but the demand are skyrocketing beyond seventh heaven!!
What fuss can this family do? I'll list down here one by one....
1. I know is "cuti-cuti Malaysia". So you are trying to make this trip as enjoyable as it was before when you had the cash riding high. Slump everyone in one tiny room. Obviously at the check-in counter you only brought you lil' kids and wife leaving behind troopers in the car which is in the car park. You stay 3 days 2 nights and all of a sudden we only see sea of white sheets in the room.... WTF???
Then your kids jump on the divan, it broke. Upon check-in, you have the effort to move the mattresses down but when you check-out you just could not be bothered, right?? What's more the broken divan you claim it was broke even before you took it down. So are you telling me, that all this while your troopers are sleeping in a hole with splints jutting out here and there?? Yeah..I bet you would put your kids in danger.... :(
2. Didn't the rates which you've agreed upon says, breakfast for 2?? Then why the farking hell you have your troopers in the breakfast counter claiming you were not inform on this??? Do we look stupid?? Do we not travel too?? It's universal, that all room rates comes without breakfast and even if they do, it's only for 2 farking people!!! PEOPLE PLEASEEE!!!! And then you make a goddamn big fuss and yes we ended up giving you the free meal and you can't even eat properly..everything else is on the floor except you!!!!
3. Next, you are on a holiday and yeahh..yeah...you follow the tips in TRAVEL GUIDE. Travel light.... And yeah..you stop there. But the SMART TRAVEL GUIDE did not ask you fools to hang you knickers on the lamp shades!!! I got freakin F9 for science but yet know that this may cause fire...It does not take a super genius to know this theory. And there's a reason why we don't allow hanging of anything on the sprinkler, all because the sprinkler it's there to save you when there's fire blazing and not when you are hot, and even if you do, we have this little trap on the wall which blows in cool air, if you must know. So people if you cannot afford the hotel laundry, bring spare clothes.
4. We move on to laundry service. Have you'll ever read the instruction? I'm very sure almost all hotels that have this service it says press # blaa..blaa..for your laundry to be collected. Even butler service rooms the butler has to be call. Is this so difficult? But no, you choose instead to leave the bag in the room and worst, with no laundry list. Then you come back at the end of the day, telling us, it's bloody common sense to send it down to laundry. HELLO PEOPLE!!!! This is the hideous trick in the world, if you can't afford it, then don't use this service. Have you ever heard of self laundry? This is KL people, our surroundings are fill with self-service laundrette. Just make an effort to google where.
And do you know that we serve hundreds of people daily and we are suppose to know and read their mind too right?? Righttttttttttttttttt...................
There's many more things "some" people do. To an extend we feel like we're no human, that we have no feelings....
For now, I'll stop at #4.

25 Random Things about me...
Rules: Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.
(To do this, go to “notes” or the "+" sign under tabs on your profile page, paste these instructions in the body of the note, type your 25 random things, tag 25 people (in the right hand corner of the app) then click publish.)
1. There's only 2 fruits in this world that I cannot eat or more like I cannot smell, see or even hear people talk about it - Pisang and Durian. And don't ask me why....
2. My most recent phobia is to ride on an express bus. Scared the shit out of me!! I once had too sit on it from JB to KL. I sat and didn't not even sleep, because everytime I close my eyes, I think I'm gonna end up in a ditch. That is if I'm still breathing...sigh...tks to all the stories of express bus accidents at the highway..but only in Malaysia though..weird ehh..
3. I'm a long distance driver, short distance can make me sleep. The driving to and fro office and home, I can either end up sleeping at the road side or at the car park. Also, if I want to sleep in a car, I must sit behind. Being Co-Pilot is just as good as driving a car for me.
4. Working abroad has broaden my horizon in every aspects. One of it, is sitting in car as a rear passenger, way before Malaysia impose the ruling of wearing seatbelts, I have been doing it. Sicko ke aku nie?? or just another phobia...
5. In between form 4 and form 5, I only breeze through my maths paper in the actual SPM. All other times was F9. I'm really that bad at math. Now, why on earth I need to know theorem phytaghoras??? I dunno??
6. Ya Allah...baru no 6??
7. If I tell others in the shape I am now, that I learned ballet till I was 12, besides my school mates, others would just think, I'm in denial!!!
8. I hated learning the Piano because the teacher would snap at my fingers while my brother get an excellent clap and look from her...damn!!! So i quit and stick to ballet n swimming...ok..ok..enough..enough...sudah2 lah gelakkan aku...
9. I ran away from home once when I was 10 because I flunk my math...see..tht's how bad I am at math. I took my BMX, cycle until federal highway, saw many cars, turn around cycle back to Komplek PKNS and sat for hours at a book store till my uncle found me there...now, why am I call drama queen??
10. I was more afraid of my late brother than I was at my father....everytime mommy goes...mommy nak call abang....mesti aku gelabah gilos...damn garang yo!! Rest in peace, abang...you are always in my prayers.
11. At 26, at the peak of career but down in love, life was sucks, had 7 credit cards debts..yes people 7 cards...sigh...I left Malaysia and flew west to have my passport written "AMAH" as my occupation which I insisted for them to change to "NANNY" and they did hehehehe...passport nak pakai 5 tahun oooo...ada ke tulis "AMAH" not that I look down on them, but I was not AMAH...ok...
12. When I was a Nanny, I had the privileged to fly on Business and First Class more than I ever dreamed of for free and travel in an entourage of 30, at least. Checked out through VIP lanes..hmm...raser cam bagus jerr...
13. I appreciate my childhood life even more, after seeing how VIP kids are being treated and raise. Don't matter that I have to beg few cents extra from me dad for that extra sweets I wanted, I appreciated that. And many more things that I need to work my ass for to get...I appreciated that.
14. I love my mom..cliche kan?? But there are times I feel I am still single because she thinks that I'm not good enough for any men because of my size. It's always.."intan nie cantik...tapi kan, kalau kurus sikit bagus" So I believed her. Believed that I'm not worthy to any men and stay attached to one until I finally realized that I'm wasting my time with the dude. But as mentioned above at #4, I went out from Malaysia and realized that I'm appreciated much more there and that no one cares whether I'm big or short as long as I'm happy with it. But let me stress here again, that I love my mom, despite what I said, she is the pillar of the family. U go mom!!
15. It's going to be almost 5 years that I'm back in the country, please GOD..I need to be out there again or else I'll go bonkers!! Yes, It's weird, but I felt I appreciated the family, friends and life more while I was abroad working to earn a decent living.
16. I'm grateful that I was there when my brother died. I'm glad I had few months with him before he went away all so sudden. He was the apple of the eye to my mom and I'm the bad apple of the family....
17. Out of working life, when I am upset at someone, I will remain silent until only time will tell. I forgive easily but forget not quite easily. Upset is ok, don't like is ok, annoying is ok, poyo is ok, no one's perfect. But don't make me hate someone because forever I will hate that someone.
18. I hate it when friends who calls or keep in touch with me like once every 10years then out of the blue calls me up because they need something. But since I'm a nice Virgo, I will still help than bitch about it!! yeah...I know...not good...something I'm trying to change. Dah tolong kan?? so senyap2 jer..hilang pahala...
19. I'm very fickle minded about things eg. last year I said to myself that I would like to get the 32" LCD from my bonus, but instead I got myself and Ipod Touch...sigh...fickle..
20. I hate to announce this, but since this 25 random things about me, so heck I should just say it. I have no hope in malay men simply because I'm no Siti Nurhaliza or Erra Fazira because the men I met will not even bat an eye lid to super plus size like me. Malay men in general for me nak yang cantik cantik jer...lepas khawin tak cantik takper...tak pandai masak pun takper..janji maser nak tunjuk depan bakal mak mertua mesti cun melecun...sigh... sound like my mother ehh... -jgn marah ye kaum2 ADAM yg berbangsa melayu-
21. Mak oii...so many skeleton in the closets are jumping out already....
22. I have many friends, but only few close and good friends. Most of my friends are male...hmmm...
23. I'm not sure how to survive in Malaysia without a car of my own.
24. Over the years I have become a homely chick. If no one ask me out to chill2 or lepak2 I will just chill at home on my sofa with my TV and music on. Maybe because I'm a workaholic, therefore every free time I have is at home sleeping or just lazing around. But I do go watch movies alone at times...
25. I know that I can cook because many many moons ago when my sister left for states I used to cook for the family. I was only 15 then. But since I left college till now,I hardly recall a time that I've cook a full meal. So now, I cook only for me because kalau cirit, saya seorang saja yg cirit...heheheh...
Dun worry peeps, ain't gonna tag anyone since I've already tag 25 fb friends to do this.

FT day was actually an effing terrible day
As soon as I read in the paper that the rebate will only last till March 09, I make it a point to put in my diary to do so.
So with KL was on PH yesterday, dengan semangatnya aku pergi la Post Office in Shah Alam, the biggest one there. As I walked in at 4.35pm the "take a number" counter had a note - Nombor sudah habis. And there are 2 girls sitting there with faces that look like, I promised I'm trying to swear less this year...sigh...... if I was the PO Manager, I would have just give them a lesson or two about being blessed that they have a job nowadays!!!
If you don't know how to fucking smile at a counter where you just sit you ass there most of the time, then just don't bloody work there!!!
And what is this at 4.35pm, nombor habis??? What the fish??? The bloody door is still wide open, and the entrance gate is still wide open...but nombor habis??? Memang effing laaa!!!
Tolong la...government servant, please laaaa.... have some pride with your job. Ok...if any govt servant happen to come across this entry, I don't mean all of you all ok. But most of them yes, and mostly are the ones sitting at the counter. I don't get it, honestly..If you are not freaking happy with the job, then leave and find something else, don't stay and make others life a nightmare.
Smalam memang aku takder mood nak sembur minah tu kat situ, damn lucky she. Is one of those "malas nak layan days" ... I just walked out.

Update for 2009
Ok...ok..ok... I have this huge problem of procrastinating my work or rather my things to do, for example blogging nieh....
Firstly, since is still January 2009, so I'm wishing all peeps out there, Happy New Year 2009!! Ok..agak basi wish ini kan??
But this is not....Happy Chinese New Year to all Chinese citizens of the world...May the OX year bring joy and happiness to all of us...yes, we all badly need this...
On another note, I'm blessed with the bonus and ang pows I received from my employer for the 2008 effort. Thank you Mr L. Despite your long winded talk that I have to endure daily, you are one compassionate and very considerate boss that I've work with....note - nie bukan mode ampu yaaa...this is real...
I ended last year not with a bang but acceptable within my expectation...let's see apakah achievement aku in 2008 and what I like/dislike about 2008.
- I was promoted...yayy....it's one of the best news...comes with great perks and boleh terima pakai gaji, though I think comparative I should get more. But it's ok, aku nie jenis - takpa, just take it and see where it brings you...
- I moved to my own place. Technically it's still owned by the bank, but heck..I still call it my home. I've manage to put decent props to make it a home and also some stuffs that was left by my sister helps too... :)
- I bought myself a home theatre set. Yeee...saya seorang yg mementingkan audio yg fantastic when watching anything on the screen. But the TV is still the old square box but in good condition. Berangan2 nak LCD which was supposed to be 2009 capex but I diverted to something else... which I will tell later, it's a another different story which shows how fickle minded I can be....
- My work wardrobe increased to a more "canggih" a bit sbb asik kena kutuk je kann...and that means it's burning the pocket....sighh...
- Ouih...HSBC offered me a VISA card which I proudly manage to not screw up like I did 10 years ago...It does come in handy when I needed something online...eeee...kalau mak aku tau..mati aku!!! I made a promise after London that I will not hold any CC. heheheh...but mom, this is given, I just have to sign.... So how can I refuse???
- I was introduced to FB intensively and love it ever since because I met bunch of old friends from way back to my skool days...
- I managed to send my car for service on time. INI ADALAH SATU ACHIEVEMENT OK!!!
- I increased my baju kurung collection for the lazy days at work that needed me to wear stockings....leceh oooo...and remember this entry...damn!!! YES, THIS IS AN ACHIEVEMENT TOO!! I use to have only a pair a year, obviously made just before Raya, how sad is that....
- I thought I reconciled with my eldest sister after our family trip to CH in August....but then it was back to not in talking terms not long after that. But this time, I tried talking to her, but dia jual mahal...suka hati laaaa labu.... I'm sorry sis, for whatever mistakes I did, u have yours too.
- I went to Cameron Highland with my family and Singapore with my friends. Had a fabulous time there, courtesy of none other than my sistah down south.
- I gathered some new friends and few have remain as good friends. I like that...I like...
- Mom have shown tremendous improvement in health with the new doctor treatment. Happy..happy sesangat....
- My youngest sister followed her husband to France for his latest posting which means I'm going there for a visit....yeee...saya amat sukaaa.....
- I'm financially a bit stable....yes...saya amatlah screwed up dalam department ini. Walau berapa pun gaji saya....balance sheet saya tetap topsy turvy, tapi masih ditahap moderate..hahahah
- I was an emcee during the company's annual dinner and I think I did a pretty decent job..maybe I should do this part-time...heheheheheh I'm quite impressed that I've overcome my public speaking phobias.
- And how could I forget, the double winning of Man U....yeahhh...gloat...gloat...I'm still gloating... tak sia2 aku begitu follow football tahun itu...
- Ouh..not forgetting, I went for a medical check-up courtesy of the boss and found out that my spinal bone is thinning...wtf??? aku pun tak paham...but I'm now put on a maximum calcium tablets and also on weight management. Well technically, now I'm generally healthy but 5 years down the road, if I don't start loosing weight now to a more decent looking numbers, I'm on a high risk of getting all sorts of penyakit laaa basically....sigh... so yes I've been going to the gym and lost 1.8kgs as of 26.12.08. We'll see how much I melt in my next appointment .
Basically that's what I feel/see/enjoy/sad about 2008. Really hope I can survive 2009 or at least still have a job... scary yo!!!
Till my next entry...toodle doo...
Ouh...did I mentioned that moi mom said since I'm going to be 34 this year, so by 35 I must be hooked up. Poor mom...year after year she says that.... I'm still amazed at her positiveness...hahahaha....
Firstly, since is still January 2009, so I'm wishing all peeps out there, Happy New Year 2009!! Ok..agak basi wish ini kan??
But this is not....Happy Chinese New Year to all Chinese citizens of the world...May the OX year bring joy and happiness to all of us...yes, we all badly need this...
On another note, I'm blessed with the bonus and ang pows I received from my employer for the 2008 effort. Thank you Mr L. Despite your long winded talk that I have to endure daily, you are one compassionate and very considerate boss that I've work with....note - nie bukan mode ampu yaaa...this is real...
I ended last year not with a bang but acceptable within my expectation...let's see apakah achievement aku in 2008 and what I like/dislike about 2008.
- I was promoted...yayy....it's one of the best news...comes with great perks and boleh terima pakai gaji, though I think comparative I should get more. But it's ok, aku nie jenis - takpa, just take it and see where it brings you...
- I moved to my own place. Technically it's still owned by the bank, but heck..I still call it my home. I've manage to put decent props to make it a home and also some stuffs that was left by my sister helps too... :)
- I bought myself a home theatre set. Yeee...saya seorang yg mementingkan audio yg fantastic when watching anything on the screen. But the TV is still the old square box but in good condition. Berangan2 nak LCD which was supposed to be 2009 capex but I diverted to something else... which I will tell later, it's a another different story which shows how fickle minded I can be....
- My work wardrobe increased to a more "canggih" a bit sbb asik kena kutuk je kann...and that means it's burning the pocket....sighh...
- Ouih...HSBC offered me a VISA card which I proudly manage to not screw up like I did 10 years ago...It does come in handy when I needed something online...eeee...kalau mak aku tau..mati aku!!! I made a promise after London that I will not hold any CC. heheheh...but mom, this is given, I just have to sign.... So how can I refuse???
- I was introduced to FB intensively and love it ever since because I met bunch of old friends from way back to my skool days...
- I managed to send my car for service on time. INI ADALAH SATU ACHIEVEMENT OK!!!
- I increased my baju kurung collection for the lazy days at work that needed me to wear stockings....leceh oooo...and remember this entry...damn!!! YES, THIS IS AN ACHIEVEMENT TOO!! I use to have only a pair a year, obviously made just before Raya, how sad is that....
- I thought I reconciled with my eldest sister after our family trip to CH in August....but then it was back to not in talking terms not long after that. But this time, I tried talking to her, but dia jual mahal...suka hati laaaa labu.... I'm sorry sis, for whatever mistakes I did, u have yours too.
- I went to Cameron Highland with my family and Singapore with my friends. Had a fabulous time there, courtesy of none other than my sistah down south.
- I gathered some new friends and few have remain as good friends. I like that...I like...
