Decision, decision, decision...

Today, marks 20102010, I actually didn’t realize it till when I start to work on my cases, then only I realize..lol! and today also marks the day I made my decision of accepting the new job role which was offered to me weeks back. (yea, I took weeks to consider and consider…as well as to seek His confirmation too) after all, where am at today, is also all provided and led by Him, The Almighty. So that’s why I really need to know if the door opens is really from Him lo, because if He opens the door, no one can shut it and vice versa and also it will always be the best choice for all of us.

Well, actually before this position was offered to me, long way back, I already have the thought in myself, and asking Him as well, of whether is there any other open position within company which I can change to, (errr..I think way months back liao, yea!! very long indeed,right?). Nothing happened, and suddenly one fine day, my team leader revealed and asked me about this open position, I was indeed really shocked. At the same time, I did feel happy, but also fear and uncertainty was all over me. Hence, I guess that explains why today only I can come to a final decision in accepting the offer as I was seeking confirmation from Him as well as to weigh the pros and cons of both job roles myself lo…(thru interviewing people by asking their views, me asking questions and etc)

So for this finale decision, actually I already told myself on last Mon, that whether by hook or by crook, whether yes or no, I also need to give the management the answer from my end. And to make that as a confirmation from Him, I actually asked for the arrangement that my Manager would come to me personally and asked for my decision of that position…. (lol! lol!) and shockingly, it happened today, and makes it even more memorable and happy for me is today has such a special date. ^_^ Nonetheless, though decision has been made, but I still don’t know how is it going to be, as for this job role, it’s going to be huge change from what am currently doing…the obvious difference is that I would be dealing more with people rather than machines (computers la)…*yikes with a big gulp* So I just hope for the best, and I believe with His guidance, wisdom and strength I will be able to pull through whatever obstacles.. Amen!!

As for yesterday, my morning didn’t really start off well lo. I was literally dragging myself up from bed and to the washroom, and when I opened the tap, *taa-daa* NO water!!! It really pissed me off and at the same time, I was kin-cheong too, as I didn't want to be late for work. Moreover, at that hour, it’s really not so appropriate to call and wake people for favor to go to their place lo. So ended up, I got to use the “miserable” filter water for my wash-ups and whole day, I was not really myself. I was very upset with the management that it happened so frequent, and yet they didn’t really take any rightful actions to solve the matter. Thank God that it wasn’t my “aunty visitation period”, if not, I think I would go bald (cause I will start pulling my hair out of frustration) alr.. (yea, I know a little dramatic here..) but seriously, I was freaking mad. Hence, today, I will go over to the management office to file complaint on such incident as they are open till late at night on every Weds and I really do hope, that they will take the necessary actions to prevent such incident to repeat again.

Blessed One Year Anniversary in Our Marriage Vows !! ^.^

Well, indeed time really flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, it's already one year that my hubby and I took our marriage vows together. Today, it reli brings back all the sweet memories to us. I can still remember how he proposed to me which actually was way out of my expectation that he would do that...the surprising part was actually he knelt down somemore, (yaya, can see that jaw dropped over there)...but am not to boast things here, I just want to share that though it was out of my expectations, still that time it really touched my heart and it was the sweetest thing he did for me.

So, actually before the proposed, we've been together for like, 9 years, and people would never thought that both of us will be together and get married, as a lot of people says 1st love relationship will often leads to no happy ending, which I guess you too agree with me, right? (ya, I think you may have known by now after reading this, you're right, we both are actually 1st love to each other) But then, I believe for some reasons, that 1st love relationship will too lead to happy ending, which I guess there are a lot of people out there had experienced this as well, so don't believe in what people says or what the myth has to say, just believe in yourself, that you too can create a happy ending to your love life, even though it's 1st love relationship. *wink wink*

Well, nonetheless, for both people to come together, it's not an easy journey. We too have our ups and downs, gone through hurdles after hurdles, before we decided to take our vows together. Even till today, the hurdles of life will still be continuing, but what matters the most is how do we respond only. Agree? Both people live under one roof is not easy, it will be colored by the differentiation of thoughts, views, opinions and etc because both people are brought up differently and come from different background. But I believe, despite all the differentiations, if we love, respect, trust and understands each other, we can build a happy marriage together. ^_^

So, just to remind you a verse again from 1 Corinthians 13:1-13:

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

And, here's a toast to our one year anniversary in our marriage vows!! :)

Burger King is in Town!!

Finally, Burger King is in Penang....after me murmuring...complaining...wondering for so long of why la Burger King (BK) didn't want to open a franchise in Penang...hahaha. Actually, I didn't know till yesterday when checked FB and saw several posts on BK this and BK that...then suspense / questions start overwhelmed me. Then I started to Google...yaya, after I'm attached with my current job, Google has been my "search buddy" liao..and that's how I affirm myself that BK really is in Penang...lol!lol!

However, though excitement and eagerness in me to go and check out the shop, but on second thought, after hearing so many bad experience on the food as well as the long-Q, I think it's better to let the crowd cool down 1st, then only go and explore. ^_^

Humans..humans...when new shop / place sprout out, for sure that shop will be "attacked", especially for those famous franchising business..agree? Well, I guess can't blame also, as new things will always easily attract people, what more now after the long awaited BK is in Penang.... :)

Well, for now, really hope that the crowd will cool down soon so I can make way into the shop...hehehe...*start salivating*

Hmmm... *in a pondering mode* "when will be Carl's Junior turn to make their way to Penang ar?" hahaha...

Home Cook Dinner # 4 ^_^

I'm BACK...hahaha...okok, I know I have been missing for months, I guess I was really busy to think of what and how to write.. (yaya I know lame lame excuses). Actually hior, I was kinda lazy too la... *blushing blushing*. Ok, so here's another backdated post. This dinner was prepared last Mon...just simple curry chicken, stir fried siew pak choy and fried onion eggs...

Just don't know why, suddenly thought of cooking, maybe due to missing homecook meal very much. But too bad, I have to actually satisfy my longing myself..haiz haiz. So kolian hior? Of course, it would be fantastic if got people to get the meals ready whenever we come back from office,agree? Hubby commented the dinner is nice...and said can opened up economy rice shop just below our apartments...sure got people buy want..Well, so much of his confidence ha??!!But then I asked him, you cooked ar? Then he keep quiet...lol! lol! Am sure you know that there's a lot to do when opening up a business, especially business that related to food...a lot of cooking, washing...brain-storming..and etc.. *gulping*

Anyway, here's some pictures to share..

Cupcakes!! Anybody wants? ^_^

Errr... I think quite some time already since I last updated my blog.Sorry sorry, cause nothing much to update mah..*o*

Today a colleague of mine brought me some cupcakes which she baked. Actually, before today, I've tried to ask her to bake those without toppings for this year Mother's Day as I wanted to give it to my granny. But, this year she said didn't plan to bake,hence, I mah can't purchase from her lo. However, last week, she suddenly asked me, do I still want the cupcakes without toppings that I wanted to give it to my granny? Of course, without any hesitation, I said yessss..Then she told me she planned to bake and will leave some for me without the toppings so I could give it to my granny.



So today, she passed me these beautiful cupcakes with the mixture of with and without toppings...hehe.Upon receiving, I asked her what's the cost that has incurred her? She happily said, she didn't want any monetary in return. :) I feel very touched and grateful to have such friend and colleague. Thank you so much to her for all her effort and heart that she puts in baking these beautiful cupcakes.

My 1st Church Camp ^_^ (June 4 - 6, 2010)

Okay, another backdated post..pai sei pai sei. Last Fri, June 4, I took leave to get ready for the 3 days 2 nights church camp as I need to follow a church friend. So, in the morning, she took me to a nice place for Koay Teow Th'ng for breakfast. And believe me, when I tasted the soup, my eyes was twinkling with shock as it was the best Koay Teow Th'ng I've tasted. Then I thought of intro to my friends and hubby, and bring them to the place to taste for themselves. But sadly, they only opened only on weekdays and closed on all public holidays and weekends...sigh and sigh...so how ar? The place is in town area, how to go and eat again I also don't know as to be frank with you, I'm really craving for the taste already. :(

So, after breakfast, we head back to church to prepare the final preparation and after that we head to Jerai Hill for the camp. All of us were excited and reached the hill around 4pm. The road to the hill was quite a challenging drive as there were at least ten plus sharp corners. The air was really refreshing, cooling and the view was fantastically picturesque. Ya....from the way I describe it, sounded too good to be true,right? Well, actually the place is really a place for a getaway from the bustling life..a place where we can have total relax and just enjoy the scenery. I think I'll just let the pictures do the work rather than me here describing it...lol!! However, not really advisable for people whom are looking for lots of entertainment because the place didn't really have much entertainment..it's more towards just a relaxation and free yourself from the stressful working life.

I really missed the place and the great time fellowship with the church friends. Not to mention also, have a great encounter with Him and also learned a lot through our invited Pastor to share the word of God with us.

What a morning!!! x_x

This post was actually supposed to be posted yesterday. But then, I couldn’t as my laptop now is “sick” and will need to wait for my good friend to fix it. He’s currently not in town, hence got to wait till next week then. I was actually hoping so hard yesterday, that when I got back and switched on my laptop, it will resume to its usual process, but still the same problem occurred, which already happened since last Sun night. Sigh, the laptop is like part of my life, but now it’s in “coma” condition while waiting for the IT pediatrician to “cure” it from its diseases. I don’t really know what’s happening to it; even I tried to configure it yesterday with the help from my friend thru phone, but still failed. Haiz..haiz….can’t blame me mah, I’m not an IT expertise. I was indeed so frustrated and upset yesterday when the machine did not work as how I want it to be.

So, after a long and busy weekend, yesterday morning, I was nearly late for work. Guess what time I only woke up? *drums playing* By the time I opened my eyes and looked out of the window, the sky was so bright and it was already 7.30am. Ya….you can imagine how I jumped out from my bed, and did everything so fast till my heart also want to pop out. Oh boy, all this happened was because my cell phone died on me…and the alarm died also lo. ..ishhh!!! Really cilaka hior? But I remembered that one of my friends’s told me that if we off the phone with the alarm set, the alarm will still strike leh, but I guess the alarm won’t strike if the phone was dead due to no battery. I learned my lesson alr that if the battery only left 1 bar, need to charge it already as it won’t last thru the night and of course I don’t want to have another heart attack again though.

So due to time was running out for me yesterday morning, I didn’t even have the time to put on moisturizer and lotions…..just only manage to grab toner and pat it on my face…then off I rushed out from the house, without even have the chance to heat up my car too. I pressed hard on the gas pedal and drove as fast as possible. But then, when reached the main road, from far I saw something white small crippling on the floor, then I quickly pressed on the brake pedal so hard, and to my shocking surprise, it was actually a small kitten. It was actually crippled alr, I wasn’t able to stop my car to help the poor kitten as there were cars coming from behind, hence the only thing I manage to do is just to drive slowly and go over it. Ohhh no no…I didn’t squash the kitten, it was under my car. My heart was so sour and aching after I passed the kitten, as I wasn’t able to help the poor chap, but I was hoping that there will be kind souls to help him. Then later after work, as I was driving back, was hoping not to see a big splat on the road where the incident happened, and indeed there were none. But, still I didn’t really feel at peace, so waited for hubby to come back from work yesterday and asked him whether he saw any kitten on the road while he was driving to work in the morning, and I was very much relieved when he said none. So I guess the poor chap got saved by kind souls then. By the way, luckily yesterday morning, the jam wasn’t so bad, quite smooth and I managed to reach office in time…phheewww!! Thank God!!
