Travel, Training... Tired...

Gah! Honestly, I dislike to travel far especially for work purpose... yelah kan if pergi holiday lain cerita :) 

Morning and Night of Jakarta :)

Well, I must tell this; it WAS a tiring training LOL!  Why I say this ... because for the past three days, my schedule was hectic and packed! Started at 8.00 am and finished 8.00 pm except for the last day... Twelve hours yo!

But, I do enjoy my stay... with this kind of training, we need a GOOD bed to sleep ^_^ 

My stay for 3 nights... love the room :) ~ Shangri - La Hotel

And of course the FOOD! Nah, time to feast your eyes...

Italian, Chinese, Local and Fusion; Fantabulous menus

And on top of it; I LOVE my table setting... 

And OH my flowers :)

At the end of the day, we had to rush to the airport; knowing Jakarta famous for their 'jammness'.  Sadly, our flight were delayed for four hours huh and departed at 00:00 the next day... This is AA!  

So, this trip is meant for full training... Shopping? I managed also but only 20% lah and chance to meet new colleagues from Indonesia, Thailand, Philippines, Vietnam and China.  

Another great experience for me!  Yeay!

Another first ~ Overseas Training

Oh yes!  My first ever overseas training begins tomorrow!

Excited oh yeah but always expect the least first :)

Anyways, have to travel twice today and will reach the destination in late afternoon... I'm not sure how's the room internet connection there but I do hope ok and laju

Ok will update more if time permits then...

Hahaha nda mau begini eh!

The Survivor

Yes.  Today is exactly one year working anniversary for me!  I would say yeay and hmmm...

Yeah because I survived my first year with a little bit of knowledge in this industry and hmmm because I have the feeling that I will be going through the same rough patches like last year.  I am not complaining here just whining :)

Work wise of course my task this year will cover more and I hope to strive better.  And I PRAY that my working surrounding and the people will be much better!  Since I started my first job, I do believe in healthy environment and motivation.  Well, one thing for sure my new boss is better than my previous one.  That's one point!

Hope everyone will have a productive working life and all the best ya! 

Take Me Away

Take me away, a secret place

A sweet escape, take me away

Take me away, to better days

Take me away, a hiding place

Oooh, I love this song by Natasha Bedingfield, a catchy song right? 

And I really need a sweet escape now!!!  Been working non stop since last Friday!  Ever since our new French MD joining us semua pun ada rombakan.  Of course, the big bosses feel the heat first then pass to us, so everyone is panicky, nervous and scared.  Do I feel scare? Yes, I do but at this moment I just go with the flow :)  Still talking about work, for the past 2 weeks, my colleague really gives me a headache.  If you are in my Twitter friend's list, you know how upset I am thru my posted statuses but it's ok I've let it go!

I suddenly remember something today.  It was our one week honeymoon trip to Hong Kong and Shen Zhen. Yes, it was one year ago.  How I wish this moment coming back to me again lol! Hmmm...there's always another time provided enough cash, approved leave, right timing and good flight deal.  

I am waiting bebeh!!!  And now Fringe time :)

I wanna go holiday!!

Monday Blues

Yes.  It is a Monday blues for me.  When I reached office today, I am sensing that there will be less work for me. I mean, since my boss is at HQ office in KL now, so it's automatically less work unless an ad hoc matters.  Well said, I just received an email from him to do some research work and Wednesday is the dateline! 

The weather outside is so unpredictable; one time hot and then gloomy but until now still  mendung - mendung.  I hope no heavy rain and hubby also went for his outstation work.  So, tonight dine with my Tabby only :)  Back to office story, only W and I are in the office, nothing much of talking but I guess she's also doing her personal thing, kan boss not around, don't care lah as long as we know our limit and not overdoing it :)

When we had a small chit chat and tea break in our pantry this morning, we were non stop talking about the scenery seen from our window.  It looks like an autumn season with the daun - daun layu dan berguguran, uiseh sasterawati ody this.  I mean this kind of thing also can drag us till 30 minutes LOL, talking about many things including how the DBKK people will clean it hohoho

Please ignore the drain :)

Anyways, the next fourteen days will be our less stress week, again my boss is not around and it's actually a good pace for us to keep slow and steady when doing our work.  Plus, when checking my to-do list just now, I realize I have lotsa work haven't completed yet, aiyaaa betul - betul Monday blues!

Sempulna Nah Kita

It's been 2 weeks since I have left Sempulna; instead of Semporna, well, when in Rome, dunn ask me why because I, myself also don't know, maybe the local lingua right?

OK, it was my second time travelling to Sempulna and as usual to participate in Regatta Lepa's exhibition.  Can't help cos this is a yearly event and it's compulsory and this year was my turn.  My first impression towards Sempulna is HOT for the weather.  But, BEAUTIFUL for the islands and seafood galore.  Pixies time :)

Our stay for 3 nites 4 days - Dragon Inn Floating Village

I love this place, I mean, your bed is just under the crystal water plus you got to see the fishes! :) But, in the morning, you also can see lotsa rubbish thrown to the sea and terfloating - floating bah! Yucks!  

My sot - sot colleagues, 'peace' with sun burnt faces lol

This is Lepa, a boat and home for some people in Sempulna

Too bad I didn't manage to capture all the good food we ate during our trip, with no rain, hot and windless weather, we ended up thirsty and hungry everyday huhuhu!

Before we went back to KK, it's a must to visit this place below :)

Old fashioned stall with lotsa salted dried seafood products

So, terbeli lah ikan masin and sotong masin and the surrounding smell?, gosh, like that will be my last visit to this market lol!  In terms of price? Very cheap cos this area is the product factory.  One obvious thing that I can share with you all, the mak cik seller won't appreciate if you say 'Terima Kasih' to them (after the bargaining), just go with the flow, I just say 'bah, jalan dulu' 

Hmmm, a new culture experience in Sempulna but I don't mind visiting here again and this time for sure - island hopping!

The outstation and the wishes

Oh, am gonna miss my holy week and easter church this year due to my outstation working trip to Semporna.  Honestly speaking, am not comfortable to attend this exhibition due to hot weather and worst case the PTIs.  There'll be a lot of them here and I have to be extra alert all the time, palis - palis!!!  The event will be held in Semporna from 22nd - 23rd April is the 18th Regatta Lepa; colorful boats competition and it will take place under the hot sun, duhhh, I hate this part!  Luckily, I bring my Clinique Sun Block :)  

Anyways, I wanna wish in advance a Happy and Blessed Easter! God Bless!

Super Busy Gurl!

Yeap, the title above refers to ME, lol! 

I am super duper busy these nowadays; mostly about my wedding preparation (my assigned checklist) and my work.  Not dat my other half is not helping me doing the prep, but, he's also getting busier with his piles of work, so to be fair, I need to have better time management.  

Talking about wedding prep, we just finished our pre-wed shoot, last Saturday. OK, at first, I feel excited because of the makeups and hairdos also can strike a pose like model (especially for solo pixies, lol).  But, after some time, backache due to various poses and my high heels, still we can smile and enjoy the day.  Posted several pixies taken by us in FB and thanks for the 'likes' peeps!  Another sneak peek of the day :)

Chinese Maharaja and Permaisuri costumes.  Our most enjoyable session!

And work, work, work, our office big event; Sabah Fest 2011, is coming up soon. This year, we will feature more about Kadazandusun people in Sabah.  As usual, my part is the handicrafts and traditional food exhibition.  Our team need to make sure everything is well decorated at the Magellan's foyer.  Dusssh, crucial moment and I ever worked from 5.00am to 6.30am ni, don't want it to be happened again!!!

BTW, heard many good news from friends; weddings, new born and mommy-to-be! I pray everything will be OK and god bless you all!!!

P/S: It's Palm Sunday today and have a pleasant weekend y'all!!!

New Year Post!

It's already the 8th day of January and this will be my first post for year 2010. I have been 'forgetting' that I have a blog and the result; I didn't manage to post any stories for the past 1 month plus! So bad oh me! But, this year hopefully, I can post stories and happenings no matter how busy my work and life is aha!

As usual, this month I have tonnes of work already waiting for me...I have this feeling ever since my holidays mau dekat abis sdh...I have taken almost 2 weeks leave just to rest and clear my leaves...imaginelah in the office my annual leave saja yang tinggal 70 hari hehehehe

Oklah, me chow now and this will be continued but with other stories lah...Have a nice weekends and TGIF! Yahoo..

It's all because of these

Halo halo...

M back and still have not updating my blog ever since I came back from Sandakan. It's all about my laziness, my sleepiness, my bertimbunan kerja and oh ow my new addiction of FB game, apalagi Pet Society. Originally, our suppiler yang asked me and deary to play this; create your own and jaga the pet but we refused. But, after several promotions done by her (thanks ah Mem Den), we signed up and here we are become addicted (m not sure if deary get addictedlah but for me IYA!...hehehe). Love it very much because can race, bet, fish, buy and collect many things.

Hmm...okay for the past 4 days already, I have been playing these games without regret...Jangan macam macam!

Later in the evening, me and deary will go and find our halloween costumes for Sabah Bloggers Nite that will be held this Saturday. Ya ya last minute? No lah still got 2 days mah...

Ok, gotta continue back to my Pet Society game, till then me chow!

Hallo Sandakan!

BTW, m in a 3Ps world now. I like pink, m doing packing for our trip to Sandakan and also m playing Texas HoldEm Poker on Facebook (trying very hard to reach 1M dis).

Also, I just bought pinky beaded sandal from Uptown Fashion and luv it very much.

Monday blues and blows

It's Monday today and I am still have stacks of work to be completed. This includes updating my blog which I didn't manage to post any stories for the past 3 days. Busy and busy and busy. And I'll be off again for our first ever event; Borneo Bird Festival which will be held at Rainforest Discovery Centre, Sepilok, Sandakan from this friday till next friday.

Huh...surely I'll be missing a lot my deary and Tabby Baby.

And today, we have to do lots of 'ad hoc' work which is last minute and makes my mood swing a little bit dis...for sure when the event is getting nearer so many changes to be made.

BUT, despite all of these, I still know how to pamper myself. I bought my fave magazines; the Malaysian Women's Weekly and Female from Popular bookstore during lunch time.

See what page actually m eager to read and see... Hehehee...

It's 5.15pm now but I know m gonna stay back dis...till then me sign off now...

First time and first words

Smile...

I cannot believe that I am a blogger now! Encouragements from my deary and of course myself lead me to have this - my own blog. I hope with this blog, I can record all my stories in bitter and sweet moments.

Till then, more stories to be posted and I will have a sleepless nite..hehe..
