Special Day

Do you notice something special about today? It’s the 29 of February which happen only once every four years. One of my friend actually have the good fortune to be celebrating her birthday on this date. I was almost forgotten about her birthday because I was quite busy lately. I immediately wish her a very happy birthday as soon as I realized it.
Today, I work until 8.15pm, so lucky that I managed to clear almost all of the back log and expenses report. Feeling really exhausted now after working overtime for 3 consecutive weeks. I even come into the office on Saturday for more OT. But when I received my pay slip yesterday, Glad that my hard work is fully rewarded.
Two of my colleagues, Rize and Jocelyn left Spansion today. Though its not such a long time that we work together, I will certainly miss both of you very much and will cherish those enjoyable time we spent together. So, from next week onward, there will be no more jokes and all those “奇装异服” (Funny clothes) wear by Jocelyn. I can’t hear those “love story” from Rize. I sure I will miss out a lot of funny and interesting thing in my office life.
I wish you both all the best in life, in academic/career.
Rize and Jocelyn, please don't forget me. Keep in touch always ya! :)

喜欢，但为甚么不做？

转眼就到了元宵节，这也意味着新年就快过完了。该是时候收拾心情了吧？哈哈， 该是减肥的时候了，我知道你们一定会说，听我讲很久了吧，就只讲不做。回想起来还真的有很多事，就只讲不做，只想不做。记得有人问我，有什么爱好，我举了些，但有大多数都没去做，如游泳-喜欢但不会，在郊外踏脚车-没机会，去海边BBQ，去RED Box唱歌等等。。。。。。朋友听了后很迷惑的问我，你喜欢，但为甚么你不去做？我就找了一堆的理由（或借口）来支持我没理由的理由。“你喜欢，但为甚么你不去做？”这句话一直萦绕在心头。为甚么？为甚么？到底要等到何时才敢于面对着自己的渴望与希求？难道就要在多年以后带着遗憾想当年吗？不要，我不要！！！但，在没得到之前，是否该先想想能否接受得到后失去的痛苦？人生是否一直就在思前想后的犹豫中已悄悄的流逝了一半？是我想太多了吧？该是放纵飞向梦想天空的时候了吧？这只因不想再错过。。。。。。

2nd Dream Come True!! YEAH

Finally after a long wait, I am confirmed as a permanent staff. This morning, I go to the HR department to sign the offer letter which is back dated to 1 February 2008. My salary is revised upward for approximately 10%. Though it’s lower than what I have expected, the inclusion of car loan allowance and other incentives more than made up for it. Furthermore is direct become a confirmed permanent staff so I have to serve 2 months notice in case I want to resign from this company. Tomorrow, I have to go for a full body check up which is compulsory for all permaanent staff. All my life, I never went for X-ray before. Really anxious about what the result will be. Anyway, don't worry and be happy. Today is the 7th day of CNY or “人日” which mean is the birthday of all human being. Happy Birthday to everybody

新年快乐

由于年三十晚要“守太岁”，对偶尔也会迟睡的我来说并不是件难事。但最近忙碌的生活让我不得不在11点时小睡了一会，半小时后我从梦中被一连串的爆竹声中惊醒，微凉的山风缓缓的吹醒梦中的思绪，这感觉真的很棒！似乎有回到童年的感觉，回到那无忧无虑的日子。一切都没变吧？或许改变的只有自己吧？
新的一年里，你会有些什么愿望呢？如果还没有的话，现在就想想吧！愿望会推动我们的步伐，一步步的把它实现！我啊？还有三个有待成真的愿望！哈哈，希望能在2008 年里兑现！J
在2008年初一凌晨一点多拍了些相片，看看我家人的杰作吧！ ^_^
不知不觉已到了凌晨两点半，哈哈！现在的我还很精神呢！

Lucky??!!

As usual, whenever our big boss from US came to visit our factory in Penang, we will have a non lead meeting.
After the meeting, he will ask one of the staff to draw 6 peoples to have lunch with him. Usually, the new comers will be the “Lucky” ones. Since I’m not new to the company, I thought to myself that the chances of me getting pick is quite slim. I thus, proceed to jokingly congratulate 2 of my colleagues, because the boss will ask a lot of questions during the lunch session. Well, as soon as I made fun of the two colleagues, my name was called out. Oh my god, I cant believe my “luck”. I guess this is karma, when you wish something will happen to others, you will end up getting it. >”<
The driver(if not mistaken, the car is Toyota Estima) drop us off at QB to have our lunch at Pastasia and Haagen-Dazs, Our boss have a friendly disposition and is a fun loving guy. He like to talk and joke with us. Luckily, he didn’t ask me too many question. Anyway, I felt a bit pressure to have lunch with the big boss of our company.
Its incredible that during the lunch, he held out a piece of pizza to our mouth for us to eat. Wait, sure is one piece each for each of us. Maybe, as an Argentine, he is used to doing it in the public restaurant. Even the guy staff also got the same treatment from him. I felt really weird and embarrass. Anyhow, it was such an unforgettable experience.
It was a long lunch that took almost 3 hours. It was fun though. We then leisurely went back to our office and what even better was that we don’t have to pick up the tap Also, I don’t have to worry about finding a parking space which is always the case if I were to drive out for lunch.

Buffet

Today is my mum birthday, last night the entire family went to City Bay View Hotel for a buffet dinner. The night view was magnificent but the food can be considered as only average. 1st time I have buffet with my parents , coz last time they always claimed that they cannot eat much, dun waste money etc...... I remember last time my sis brought my parents to EQ for Japanese food. My father had a stomach upset because of raw food haha~ We really did have a great time last night. Feeling real good of spending our time together in a family outing.

My second time here~
Beautiful night view of GeorgeTown from the revoing restaurant on top of the citybay view hotel

Take a look at my masterpiece...i created a nice looking 3 scoops ice cream,
but the taste was not up to my liking My Fav too~

Happy Family

My pretty sister

Luckily, my sign reach the place right on top of where i was sitting before we were about to leave

Very Full~

Complicated Feeling

I really don’t know how to describe my feeling now, excited? Happy? Worry? Or uncertainty…… this evening, my manager informed that I will be given a permanent position effective from 1 Feb 2008. Anyhow, my job function will change again. Over the past 4 months I have been through 2 different job function and will be taking on another new responsibility next month. Just when I am about to get used to my new job function which started on January, I now face the prospect of being assigned to a completely new job scope. My manager told me that as a team player, i will have to diversify my skills and always try and acquire new competencies. Never in my imagination that I could learn and adapt to new job requirements in a short period of time. Anyway, so far so good. May god bless me in my new position. Hope to get a raise too at the same time.

Happy Birthday!!! yeah~

This afternoon, all the staff from my department went out to celebrate birthday for me and the manager because our birthday are only a day apart. So many people celebrating with me because of the manager birthday. :( Well, at least I have cake and having lunch with so many friends at QB Nando :P P/S: Rize, thanks for your birthday present. I love it. And to all those friends who take your time to celebrate with me, i wish to thank you all. Not forgetting too, are all my friends who wish me by SMS and instant messages. :)

Lunch @ QB's Nando

Spansion's colleagues

Woody Dance

have u ever saw a wood dance before? haha, now u got the chance......

don't know how to rotate, sorry! :P

Improvement

This afternoon, 5 peoples entrusted their life to me because I drove them to lunch at KFC for Inn Inn’s farewell. This is the first time that I drive with so many peoples on board. My driving can be consider as good, not as smooth as I wish though. Today dancing class was from 7.10pm to8.00pm. For this lesson, the instructor taught us to pose with our hands and waist instead of focusing on the steps we had learn yesterday. We were complimented for making a significant improvement from the first lesson. she said that i have improved too. :) Last month, I watch a Hong Kong’s drama series about dancing, I feel dancing actually is quite interesting and I never in my imagination that i have a chance to learn to dance one day. It is a wonderful coincidence that now, i have been force to learn by my company. Sweating feel so good after not having been exercising for so long. My knees still hurt right now from dancing…… tonight after the lesson i drove home and it was the first time I ever drive after dark. My eyes feel very uncomfortable when the on coming cars turn on their high beams. The strong light almost blinded me for a couple of seconds. I wonder why the drivers want to on the high light. God bless me……

Lets guest which one is me in the photo? haha~not my group la, :P

This group is practicing modern dancing

New Experience

My knees are sore right now, don’t know whether is due to too much driving or dancing. The dancing lesson that we attended just now was very interesting for all of us who never learn to dance before. The line dancing is very much like the “cha cha dance”, less steps and keep on repeat. The instructor taught us all the steps in this first lesson. We try our best to follow what the instructor taught us and enjoy ourselves within this 1 hour. Anyway, most of us will forget the steps when we turn to the other side although the steps is same as 1st round. :P Will tell you more once I have gone through tomorrow lesson......will be continued

Dancing

I will have my first dancing class after work tomorrow, from 5.30pm to 6.30pm. Maybe you are surprise that why I suddenly interested in dancing? Actually I been force by my company one ok? >:< As a new staff, it is compulsory for me to perform at our departmental annual dinner which will be held at the end of this month. There will be 3 groups that going to perform. Our group decided on line dancing as our repertoire .Can you imagine, someone as untalented as I am in dancing, have to perform in front of so many people during the dinner? Help me!!!

Growth

The past week was very challenging to me, In work and in driving. I start to solve a lot of issues which just assigned to me during working hour. Yesterday I also challenge my to drive through the hilly stretch of road through paya terubong which I never drove past before. In the end I can do it all, haha~ We will grow only by constantly challenging ourselves, do u agreed?

Challenging time

Today was a very special and exciting day for me cause for the first time in my life, i drove for quite a distance from my home to the factory where i work in Bayan Lepas. I took a long detour via Greenlane instead of paya terubong. I lost my way for a while, >”< I drove to residence area, luckily I managed to get back onto the highway by following other cars, haha~, I’m quite clever indeed, :P.
It took me 1hr 15mins to reach my office at 8.04am (after i parked n walk to punch my card). Wait!! is not I drove so slow ok? Average 60-80km/j, haha~ The tracffic was really heavy on almost all the road that i past through. Especially around the schools. Suddenly I realized that how lucky am I can sleep during the way to work last time, and don’t have to fight through the traffic *-*
My supervisor assigned new function to me today, if everything go smoothly. After 1 month I will be appointed as permanent staff and promoted to a higher position, yeah!!!

Birthday Present

Yesterday i took delivery of my brand new car which is also the first car i ever owned. Though its not really my dream car, I still feel very happy for myself. After all, the car is my 29th birthday gift that I bought for myself. Today, I took a drive together with my parents, we drove from Air Itam, passing through Greenlane, Sungai Ara (My sister's home), Road 7 to buy some car accessories, Gurney, Tanjung Tokong to reach home. We covered almost half of Penang Island. Tomorrow, I will drive my new car to go shopping with friend. Yeah~

心 与 情

嗯，该有一年了吧？学会打中文后，那在窗前摇笔杆的日子似乎已成为遥远的记忆。但我仍然坚持在每年的年尾（今天）写下那年里经历过的点点滴滴，趁我还懂得手写中文，趁我还没忘却这年里让我触动心铉的喜怒哀乐，一字一句，一笔一划的忆起当时的情景。间中感动的泪滴模糊字迹，心酸的感觉涌上了鼻头，愤怒的火在心中燃烧，甜蜜的微笑残留在嘴角。。。。。。。还有为了忆起忘记的字眼而绞尽脑汁，在这短短的几小时（不知不觉过了几小时，大概有3 或4 小时吧）经历了不一样的心情，像是重温旧梦般。 为什么要记载已逝去的事与物？或许是怕忘却当时的心情吧，一种可以让我在多年以后，在某年某月忆起的感觉吧？偶尔回看过去的往事，当时认为天大的事情，如今看来，不过尔尔，笑看当年的年少轻狂，年少无知，还真别有一番滋味在心头。在这当中至少我可以看到自己的蜕变，和心路历程。。。。。。 再过5天就是2008 年了，我的天，我快到了二字头的尾端，我还有三个未完成的愿望要实现！但今年里至少我达到一个，还学会了，别定下难以在当下达到的目标和懂得珍惜别人的付出。 要完成一个遥不可及的梦等于在发梦，脚踏出的第一步才是达到梦境的起点; 别人的付出不是必然的，不能接受也要懂得感激。希望别再有，别人走了老远后，才起步想并肩而行，但留给我的只剩下散落在地上的感觉。

记载我的心情故事的所在

Wish Come True~ yeah

Today, one of my many wishes has finally come true. Really happy although I just fulfill with one out of four of my wishes. What is my wishes? Emm, 1st is high paid job, 2nd is new car, 3rd is keep fit, 4th is …..hehe, u know which wishes I fulfilled? :)

等待

等待是最让人煎熬的一种感觉，尤其是等待着不确定的结局。渴望得到的欲望越高，患得患失的感觉更让人心慌得不知所措。很怕，得不到的失落感，更怕，得到后失去的挫败感。明天，将会是一个关键时刻，不知会得到什么样的结果，真的很怕，很怕。。。。。。

X'mas

I really like the weather when the Christmas is around the corner. The blue skies and white clouds, and the north wind is blowing gently……it’s really a wonderful season! Although sometimes it will rain, the feeling of being cheerful and the sense of being romantic couldn't be affected by such matter. Just feel like want to have a ride and gather with friends…….
Would like to share some old but nice songs with you all. Enjoy……^_^

Smile Always ^_^

Yesterday, we have a department meeting with the manager and supervisor. We were told by the manager to voice out our opinion on…….When it was my turn, the manager suddenly said that I have a smiling face all the while and will get no. 1 in the smiling competition.
Actually, most of my colleagues always said I’m a smiling girl but I don’t realize it myself. I smile because I feel happy. You must be wondering if the company treat us so good that I’m so happy working here. In actual fact, I’m not entirely happy working in this company.
I dislike those people who always want to show off, those who are autocratic and the work assigned……but I just feel happy, coz I pass through hard time in my previous company. It really a hard time, I merely forget how to smile for a very long time when I was there. That why I really appreciate what I have now.
So next time when u feel disappointed or in a bad mood then u can try thinking this way, compare current situation with the hardest time in your life which you encounter before, then sure can smile always……^_^.
