Impressive

This morning, I received this parcel that sent to my house ->



I was wondering what is it.. Then I open the parcel and found a greeting card and a decent notebook with Tiger Woods' portrait on the cover.



I can recognize the logo on the notebook, it is the company that I went for interview last week. In fact, the HR representative from the company have contacted me few days ago regarding the offer, and they did mention they will post me "something". I expect it is an offer letter, but now it doesn't seems like a document.



Then I open the greeting card, it surprise me that they send me this card to welcome me to join their company, and it is in handwriting.. Wow, it is really impressive..



Then look at the notebook they give me...



I love it so much. It isn't like any other ah pek organizer with black PVC as cover and wording in gold. There are lots of Tiger Woods' portrait inside the notebook as well.



Actually I feel touching by this... It is so great to feel that you are being appreciated by the company and they really sincere in hiring you as a assets to the company...or maybe I'm just being naive to be fooled by their HR strategy. Anyway, I am quite impressed by them... Too bad this is not a good timing for me to leave my current company, sorry la..

The Zahir

Finally I have finished reading the book The Zahir which wrote by Paulo Coelho. It is a great and influential book that can leave reader a thought provoking. The main theme of the book is Love, but indeed, the message in the book is co-relate to our life.

The story starts from the disappearance of the narrator's wife, who wanna escapes from a marriage that left her unfulfilled. While the narrator trying to reunite with his wife, he recall all the memories between him and his wife, which left him a lot of question and he realize that he has made a lot of common mistake just as any other couple.

Paulo Coelho uses a very beautiful paragraphs to tell the story of how the narrator search for his wife to the Kazakhstan, how he manifest the understanding of love, the power of destiny and a lot more of spirituality.

If you like Coelho's Alchemist, then you will like this book as well. The story line is interesting, the language is beautiful, the theme is inspiring.. and the most important thing is, the book holds so much meaning of love and you will realize what is essential in life and how can we treasure it.


‘Suffering occurs when we want other people to love us in the way we imagine we want to be loved, and not in the way that love should manifest itself - free and untrammelled, guiding us with its force and driving us on.'

Yeah yeah, good news!!

Muahahaha, I won a holiday getaways from a contest!!! I have been contacted by the representative from Master card regarding this 2 weeks ago, and I don't quite believe it. Until today, I saw my name on The Star newspaper!!! hahaha, it's unbelievable. It is actually some contest for Petronas customer who swap their master card at their petrol station. Ridiculously, I am not a regular customer of Petronas. And how I won this was during that time my car broke down, I drove to this nearest petrol station which is Petronas to pump the petrol. Hahaha, 塞翁失马,焉知非福.. Anyway, I don't know where is the destination of this holiday package yet, maybe it is just a 3 days 2 night stay at first world hotel.. ||o__o.. erghhh..

Again

Aiks, I think my car have the same nostalgia feeling as me to say good bye to me. It was just about few days to go to get my new car, but it broke down again last night while I'm on my way back from office. Gosh... another break-down during rush hour in Tropicana. Luckily I left office quite early yesterday and my colleague haven't gone back home yet. I quickly called one of my collleague to rescue me. Sigh~~~ maybe my car is toooo sad to leave me as well... I can't blame you, my fault not to take care you well enough and abandone you, please forgive me..

So long NAR 507

I was quite moody lately. I guess it was due to the times to say good bye to my car is just around the corner. This might be the last week for me to drive my NAR 507. I never expect it will be such a hard time to say good bye to her.

She is very meaningful to me, because it was given by my father to me. I remember the first day my brother drove the car back, we are so excited. This is the first brand new car we bought in the family. Then my brother sold it to my father and finally it pass on to me after my dad passed away.

I have been driving it since Uni time. I car pool with my friends on her during my Industrial Training. My friends alwasy laughed at me when I am unable to turn some tight corner with my non-power steerling. Due to my bad sense of direction, I alwasy lost with her and she never disappoint me. I drove her once to Johor during chinese new year to visit my friend's place...it was a great time with her. I also remember I drove her to visit my dad who was laid in Hospital during his treatment. And I drove her back to KL after my mum funeral. And I remember the night I broke up with my ex-bf, I drove this car to my best friend's place....She has been with me for ups and downs.

It has been a tough decision to made. Maybe I am being too sentimental, I feel sad to say good bye to her. It alwasy remind me of my father when I am driving it. Hopefully the next owner would take care of you well.

Thought of the day

Everyday when I back to home, my dog will welcome me by wagging her tail. She will jump around the house and lick me as well. It is such a lovely thing to welcome by this little creature. But now I realize that I never blog about this wonderful thing that happen everyday since a year ago. Why didn't I found this blog-worthy? Why I never have a thought in blogging this? Perhaps it is due to it happens everyday, and I don't found it "special" to blog about, it sound ridiculous. we human being always don't appreciate what is belong to us at the moment, we take a lot of thing as granted. There is always something else that we are longing, and while we struggle to fulfill our desire, we neglect the essential thing that is existing around us. When is your last time to appreciate the dinner cooked by your mum? when is the last time you tell you beloved one you love him/her very much? Isn't that wonderful to be able to own a car? Can you still remember how happy you were when you get the offer of your current job? We were once happy with all these but it is no longer a ripple in your heart. We will not appreciate it anymore until we lost it...

LOST

I had an appointment yesterday after work. And considering the rush hour, I chose to take LRT. I parked my car at my friend's house which is just a walking distance to the LRT station. After the appointment, when I planned to get back my car from my friend's place, then I realize I had too high expectation on my sense of direction, I can't remember where is my friend's house. Then I called my friend and she is having her dinner with her bf. When she is about to direct me the way via phone, my hp's battery was died off. Walao, it was around 7 or 8 at night. I was lost in the housing area. I know it is funny but don't laugh, I was so helpless and scared during that time. I was so alert on any motorcycle pass by me and I hold my beg so tight in my arms. My leg strain due to the high heels i was wearing. I wandered around the area and try my very best to recover my memory, but everything just seems like a dejavu for me. On top of that, my car doesn't have alarm which I have to walk until the end of each path to find my car. It was so terrible. I don't know how long have I been walking, then suddenly, there is a car stop next to me, it was my friend's bf!!! My friend asked him to look for me after the disconnection of our phone conversation. I am so touching and felt so paiseh also for bringing troubles to them, haha..Anyway, Joey, if you are reading this, thanks a lot ya.. haha.... It was a terrible experience to me.

Dik Si Nei Lok Yun

This is my most memorable moment in Hong Kong. It was taken via my phone thus the quality is quite bad. Anyway, I keep watching this video and yet still feel very touching everytime. The fireworks is amazing, the music and lighting is awesome as well. I wish Allan was there with me.

I am free!!!

I felt like I was being isolated by the world. Since last two weeks I came back from Hong Kong, I just went to office for one day, after that I worked from home for a whole week. For the sake of doing 24/7 support, I am not suppose to leave my house for more than an hour. Imagine, I didnt go to any shopping center, or meet any of my friends, or even go to gym in this two weeks, the only place I go is the vegetarian restaurant within a stone away from my place. Worst thing is, two weeks for not doing exercise makes me feel like am the Garfield, and I miss my lunch mate very well, I think I have missed out a lot of funny thing happened in office. Finally, I am free today!!! I was extremely high since this morning, I spent two hours of lunch with Grace in The Curve, inclusive shopping. Haha. Then after works, I can't wait to go gym, I can feel the divine energy passing through my body while working out. I think since the last 6 months, I never stop more than one week of exercise, I think I get addicted to it. Haha.... Now I am planning for tomorrow..Hmm, shall I go shopping? or movie? or ..... Wow, I am free I am free!!!
