give 4 million to HYS for building fund

remaining 6 million say 5% return per year: Rm300k!

Reunion 30 years on

well, just had dinner with my dad's uni mate from 30 years ago. Well, they havent' kept in touch in the last 30 years. Both of them are balding old men now... Hee Hee.. they said they could recognise each other when they open the door.. Well, this guy met my dad in his hotel room. He won a lucky draw and came to stay for 2 nights. Hence this was a surprise visit!

Wonder if i will freak out if someone call me up like that 30 years on!


eeks.. had a full dinner, wasted my effort of playing badminton in the afternoon. Broke the strings of my racket.

leaky roof, work to death

Read about this in the morning paper
$$$$$ Million$
http://www.thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2007/5/18/nation/17765383&sec=nation&focus=1

Apparently, when you buy a roof, you should expect it to be leaking since it is not stated in the contract that it has to be waterproof! After a 90 million renovation, now they need another 22 million to inspect all the buildings! Gosh, Dun you think someone should be held responsible for wasting millions??? I work my ass off, paid my taxes and for what? roads are full of holes, roof is leaking, petrol prices keeps going up up up!

As Miguel would say "the world is going down the toilet!" or Bart would says " Eat my shortS!"


Updated on 20th May: There's problem with wiring, fire-proofing as well... Well Done! Samy!

Another piece of sad news
http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2007/5/17/apworld/20070517123544&sec=apworld

Last week, a HP girl from Singapore worked herself to death.

Gulp.."why does the sun goes on shinning, why does the sea rush to shore?" This songs keeps playing in my head!

i really wonder what prompt ppl to take their own life. How do you make such a decision? I mean, i can't even bear it when i need to put my dog down. And that was becos he was so sick and in so much pain. In the old days with Romeo and Juliet,they do it for LOVE. In modern times, because of their JOBS. I know life is not a bed of rosses, it is an uphill, sometimes even an almost impossible journey. I for one, strongly believe that we caMe onto this life to learn, not only 1 but many many lessons. And it is through the hardships that we have to endure that we learn and grow!

Well, enough of all this stuff. i need to watch lots of episodes of Simpsons to get over this!

LXI and postcards




Attended LXI training with TT this afternoon. Spent more time fiddling with the PC than paying attention in class. Both us have a very short attention span. That's the excuse anyway. Well, i get to learn the important stuff. When i got back to work to show off my new skill, Ivan and ST were laughing their heads off, commenting that i spent 3 hours learning to press buttons! As the saying goes, it not about pressing buttons, it's to know which buttons to press that count! Duh!




Love the new postcard which are TT's idea! Really Cheesy, Jazzy and Cool! She will pengsan now from all the praises as i know she do read my blog! Well, TT, everyone love them and from the number of request i have to fix a lovely hawaiian stamps to post to their loved ones, you know all of them love your work and want to share them! well, i suppose partly could be due to the cool running man! I love him, and it was love at first sight, well, i know the rest of the guys love him too! Haha.. i better stop here before it get too "geli"


there goes, a sneak preview... be patient for the ones from Mr. Postman!

Face looks brighter, shinnier, and hence..... i look fatter... hmmm...i already have a fat face... anyway, maybe time for a new haircut to go with my new bright face
