Bump in with celebrities!
Waiter Kien Teck reveals: “I took a call at 6pm from a woman who asked if she could book a table for 8pm for seven people, including her boyfriend. As we were busy, I couldn’t fit them in and offered her one at 9.15pm instead, which she said was okay. It wasn’t until she arrived that I realised it was Anna Kournikova and Enrique Iglesias!” ----> I laugh so hard... at the comment

It seems that H is fighting up in the hill..niasing a lesson never learned..

Gambling Woe
How nice~ It’s been raining practically the whole day! Woke up pretty late today.. as usual. Last night need to company some street meeting, to find some solution for someone I know.
Here’s a scenario: - The law of gambling is simple.. There’s no winner.. Only expensive thrills. The saying “Ai Pua, Mai Lui” become synonymous with H. H has so much debt to settle so much so that his 4-figure salary could not even service the banking loans and personal debt to his family and friends. At one point I believed he did stop, but as month passes by pressure from repaying loans and debt forces him to seek alternative way to settle his debt faster.. Gamble again! How stupid can that be?
Anyway of recent problem arises yet again,. H is out of work, his car is 5 month lapsed for loan service; his credit card payment is months behind. Many of us here owns transportation and credit cards, almost everyone at one point of the lives would take a loan or sum to finance something.
A car loan may take as little as 3yrs, 5yrs or maybe 9yrs to fully pay up for the loans. Has it ever occur if one fine day you no longer have to financial mean to service all your loans *as in NO ONE CAN HELP YOU! *. What would you do then? What possible solution one may comes up with? As H car is 5 months late for payment; fears has it that and RO been issued; H and I went to meet a group of car reposessor/call man/ etc a trade that deal things banking institution would do in front. This group offers loan services and protection of cars that are about to be repossessed by banks for certain duration and fees.
If one ask me, the whole deal is a scam and stupid simply.. not only the car loan is not paid and on top of it owing a fresh debt to these particular group. The fees they ask equal almost 50% service charged monthly.
My previous advise to my friend still stand. I advised him was to surrender everything he has to the bank, get a bankruptcy filed and thing being back to normal. Being a bankrupt is not so bad really because H has exhausted all his option. Aside from not being able to own banks account, own a business, limited flying out of country it good! No more fear from getting phone calls by bank, fear of car getting tarik etc etc. Banking law for less than 30k bank won’t sue you bankrupt *wonder if it still hold true now * and on top of it after 3 years of being a bankrupt there’s an option to discharge with a discounted sum.
I can only hope he settles everything and pay what owes to me. Because of people like H and a few others, I too have learned not to trust and give loans to people.

crash boom bang~
While waiting for Mike reporting with the investigating officer, I have a good chat with mike’s mum who accompany him..reminds me that “No matter how old we maybe.. our parent always care for our well being”.
Just how severe will the accident be this time.. I wonder.. perhaps a picture might tell a tale or two.
The culprit? A Yamaha 110 kapchai! Woo.. kinda shock that a small motorcycle could deal such huge damages. 0.o!
As to why today been an interesting day.. earlier on I was at the same traffic police station accompanying my mum who had an accident the night before.. Some fool on the opposite direction road can’t seems to stick in their lane crosses the double line and graze the driver’s side; it dreads me much to even think if it were to be a head on collision!
Hmm.. a visit to the local traffic police station not once but twice in a day!! *i suddenly feel like beli nombor tomorrow ^(oo)^ *
and I saw "HER" blink today... ouch pain pain... haiz

Food Frenzy~
One of the thing that most of us been planning to do since last year is a Japanese styled buffet but always get postponed…always never jadi. Anyway finally today get the chance liao!. I also cannot remember when’s the last time I go buffet ala jepon! The journey begins at at 11+ , skip the traffics; makes me wonder why nowadays the traffic jam is so horrible.. don’t those people have work to do in office wan ar?.
Finally reach destination. Jogoya! With all the hype and rave bout this place I think I’m the last to reach and savour the food there. Too lazy to snaps photos as I’m pretty sure there’s plenty available in this cyberspace and on top of that with all the traffic jams and distance.. Seriously I’m more interested in chowing in.
List of people reviews with photo:-
Main Site!
Masak Masak review.. really can describe the food till heaven level~

The food are fresh, setup is pleasantly mysterious. So there I was busy picking up food without glancing at those cute introduction name tag, almost 80% of what I stuff in my mouth.. I dun even know apa tu! There this incident, which got me really worried.. while going out on a possible 3rd or 4th round.. I noticed something shiny on their rolls.. SHIT! My friends confirmed that it is a transparent cling wrapper used to wrap the sushi roll! Jialat!! I'm pretty sure I've ate those thing earlier on (Not sure how many!!).. WITH THE DAMM WRAPPER ON! No wonder I find it's chewy! Holy molly…. I seriously hope I can pass those things out in my daily morning smoke shit routine! Deng.. I remember someone said before that “what ever serves on a sushi plate is all edible!” Screw that le..mahai...=.=!
Kanina~ this is the photo taken on my friend plate.. see the circled cling wrapper plastic.. :( my plate licin man!! so nothing to show.. all inside edi.. haiz.. nvm.. I go eat a few more round!
Of all I like this best! I dub thee "The Largest Mechanical Ashtray" I've seen.. complete with funky lighting and flowing water sumore weyy...
Health Excitement
Today I sent her to see a cardiologist recommended by the physician at the dialysis center because she had been complaining of shortage of breath and dipping blood pressure. Initial test result (Imaging / ECG) shows grave result, her blood pressure (BP) a high scale of 210/200 and have a severely enlarge heart which could be due to high blood pressure. The high BP reading is extreme high probably because my auntie is afraid of doctor or so the doctor thought so no further reading is done. Doctor advises me to bring my aunt following Monday for an “Echo” test for further test. I can only hope my auntie survive this ordeal.
After sending my auntie home from the hospital. I tagged along with a friend (BC) visit the newly opened Southeast Asia's largest Jusco store, Bukit Tinggi Klang. The store is impressive for a building that only took 9 months to built!. BC is going on a winter vacation Korea in december….knn ala winter sonata mood.. I want to gooo too!!
Anyway as we’re strolling along the retail center, we came cross a shop (R20) which sells funky streetwears; there 2 really cool AVP figurine made of car spareparts and scrap that attracts a lot of people. As BC was busy trying clothing at the fitting room, I was outside looking around while humming to Nelly Furtado “Turn Off The Light” played by the store radio.
As I was humming to the part “Turn off the light…….Turn off the lighttt~” guess what? Niasing the whole row of retail shops fuse out in darkness.. wahlan! How freakish can that be! New shopping centre weh! Power failure on my maiden visit..... 0.o! and BC is still taking his own sweet time in the fitting room! Purchased the clothing and get the hell out~ .
Now here’s the funny thing at the end of it all.. we continue s to walk around the complex.. on the way exiting.. I've notice that the sohai actually been wearing his t-shirt inside out! Wahahahaha o0o. Serves him right for using my ass as his face skin cover when talking to the R20 promo girl enquiring if she’s a girl or a guys.
The thing is I’ve noticed a lot of girls nowdays are becoming too tomboyish. They would dressed up like man and wear those super tight fitting cloth,wrapper,tube (apa tu?) to flatten their hooter. Wahseh so kesian those hooter cannot breathe. Make me wonder if they have not met a real man to make them a woman again? Hmmmm...........

"Foreshadowing"
Almost everyday I fiddle around thinking if there’s something important that I should and could do, instead I did little/almost nothing and just let time takes it course. Before long I’ve learn of what ever expectation we might or may have; most of the time we do not have control of uneventful things that happen hence I fall short of my own expectation or shall I say simply do not have any anymore.
Tonight was an intresting night; I’ve met someone who gives me this perspective in life for me to think about. All of a sudden I’ve learn a startling truths that cast doubt in the values that I once embraced so eagerly and foolishly; Commitment. So what is it about commitment anyway? A duty or pledge to something or someone? I did not gave a definitive answer for I’m unsure of what expectation that is to come.
Anyway of what ever happen now onwards, I sincerely thank you my friend for giving me an opportunity for whatsoever outcome it may be….

一无所有
I have asked you endlessly,
When will you go with me?
But you always laugh at me with,
Nothing to my name
I want to give you my dreams,
And give you my freedom.
But you always laugh at me with,
Nothing to my name.
Ohhh….
When will you go with me?
The earth beneath my feet is moving.
The river beside me is flowing.
But you always laugh at me with,
Nothing to my name.
Why do you always laugh at me so?
Why don’t I give up?
Why do you see me as,
Forever having nothing to my name?
Ohhh….
Just go with me now!
Listen - I’ve waited so long,
So I’ll make my final request.
I want to grab you by the hands,
And take you with me.
Now your hands are trembling,
Now your tears are falling.
Perhaps you are saying,
You love me with nothing to my name
Ohhh….
Just go with me now.

Multitude union
Nothing much interesting has happen other than Ray got back from Johor bringing seafood from his factory; last Saturday we’re having “Pufferfish aka Fugu”; not a common food due to it poisonous nature but nevertheless it didn’t deterred us from bring the fish to a restaurant and get it cooked! While waiting for chow time, Ray assured us that he specifically instruct that his staff gut and clean the fish properly before he bring it back home.. The head, poison bag and the skin removed. I’ve said “Well I’m here for the food! If tomorrow u happen to watch the 8 o’clock new and saw my face u know what happen la~ “.
The result: The fish tasted so damm good.. almost like chicken *serious! I’m still alive!

Learning Friday~ How To Whistle!
Anyway I know it dull taking care of retail.. so initially I planned to go to the library and get some books for the 2 days I’ll be at The Store, well since I too lazy to go out in the hot afternoon, I‘ve decided to learn a skill to spent my time with.
Whistling! So how many of us here do know how to whistle? I do know how to do the ‘Fingerless whistle’ Not that good! But I can blow a tune or few. What about the “Fingered Whistle”? You know when you watch those American cities styled movie; the part where a man in standing on a busy street hailing a taxi with hand in his mouth producing a quick, loud piercing whistle?
Yea! That the one I wanted learn! It so cool! Definitely beats shouting top of your lungs across on a ‘loud’ day. So I decided to ‘Goggle’ it, tones of information pours out with tip and techniques. Text will be text, so I tried ‘YouTube’ hoping it would be better at understanding it.
At last it been 2 hours since, crazy amount of self-laughing my head off *people might think I’m mad. Feeling a little light headed.. a ultra dry lip…and a very salty fingers. Top of that I still catch no ball!! *wtf!! Ah~ well whistling is a funny skill; you either gets it or you don’t!!
Well there’s something new to learn...almost nailed it goddamm! LMFAO!! XD

The interview
I arrived 10mins late, luckily made a call and it seems that the interviewer is coming in late too; noon traffic in Klang valley is getting worse day by day. Since I’m ‘early’ and decide not to announce my present at the store, I have a light snack at McD’s nearby to unwind and mentally prepare myself for what to talk about. It suddenly dawn upon me that I have nothing to say nor can I describe half of what I’ve been doing for the past 6years. I though of skipping the interview and go home~
It is at that very moment I asked myself “Are you ready?” “Are you capable of doing it?”
The saying “Hou Ma Bat Shek Wui Tao Chou” A good horse would never eat gostan grass? *hahaha!! Years of being a free tiger that roams the forest is now back on leash definitely got me thinking deep....no more flexible working hours and perks of being the big guns.
I finally meet the one interviewing me.. the session was fairly pleasant and smooth *I think!!. At one time he asked me a question “What makes you think that you’re capable for this position? “ wahseh! I spoke too soon ….“ I love power!! I loves managing people; if I’m not~ I wouldn’t be seeing you in the first place! *wtf is that?* …mouth overshot the mind... He seems rather stunned with my answer and proceeds to jot down those QnA’s feedback form and said “Good!”
For many people, their job is a big part of their identity – which is fine to a point. But such close identification can lead to problems. Losing your job is bad enough, but if your self-image is tied up to the job you’ve just lost, you can also lose a sense of who you are!
“You Job Is What You Do, Not Who You Are”
What else do I got to lose eh?

Oh Frag Me~
Towards evening that I would drove out to my friend’s CC and hangout there. There’s a mamak a few shops away where a lot of gamers would sit down and discuss their ‘adventure’ after session of games each night. It pretty much the same routine for the whole night ; Dota , mamak , Dota , mamak.. etc etc till wee hours in the morning. Kinda getting my life wasted right? Well what to do.. there’s practically nothing better to do for now atleast.
Yesterday was an interesting day in Banting. It is the first day the power of money is fully exercised to see things done~ The counter attack has begin… it may takes 3, 4 even 6 months to see some results, but I have confidence something good is about to happen. For is all said and done fails, there’s always a final triumph card waiting to be unsheathed.
In about 6 hours from now I be having an interview for a new position which I been waiting for such a long time now, hopefully I will land that job and starts anew; I really do not know what prepares for..my C.V’s is brief and half of what I do can’t really be penned down. Let’s hope may the best shooter wins..

一場遊戲一場夢
不要談什麼分離 我不會因為這樣而哭泣
那只是昨夜的一場夢而已
不要說願不願意 我不會因為這樣而在意
那只是昨夜的一場遊戲
*那只是一場遊戲一場夢
雖然你影子還出現我眼裡
在我的歌聲中 早已沒有你
那只是一場遊戲一場夢
不要把殘缺的愛留在這裡
在兩個人的世界裡 不該有你 喔
#為什麼道別離 又說什麼在一起
如今雖然沒有你 我還是我自己
說什麼此情永不渝 說什麼我愛你
如今依然沒有你 我還是我自己
重唱 *,#,#
been listening alot to this lately....

Yum seng buddy~
Today evening Coach Zhang invite my old man and me for dinner at oversea restaurant in KL, wow splendid meal! Halfway through dinner 2 old friends of coach came and joined us. Imagine 10 course meal with free flow of liquor..
The restaurant closes at about 11, but there’s so much to talk about that we all decides to patron the kopitiam across the street.. more drinks! One of coach friend is a head auditor at a local bank; cool~! So I decide to ask his opinion regarding my ‘case’. His mind and ways of thinking is superb, gives me a lot of idea and method to deals with my problem.
The best part is, I can come look for him if there’s trouble.
Definitely a fine night I’ll say~ in few hours time i be going Genting to do more entertaining....

An Old Friend~ Coach Zhang
It is always those talking and drinking session with the coach, I learned a lot of fine Chinese language and beautiful phrased Chinese proverb giving depth to scenario events.
Coach was previously a head of an elite government sports complex in Beijing; due to work stress and tonnes of entertainment, he decides to stop and come Malaysia to rest.
During his break from China, he taught swimming lessons at a local club.
During his time in Malaysia, my dad would always accompany the coach around looking for foods and drinks. It is in those sessions that I’ve joined and get to know the coach better. I know both the coach and his wife were national Olympic swimming champion and diver in their heydays. Among the thing that amazes me are his modesty, his strict living lifestyles and his humbleness.
Coach made a lot friends here but this trip back to Malaysia, he specifically informed and invite only a few friends of his presents because everyone will come and meet him; then he would have time to really enjoys his holiday. Good to see you Coach!!

Merdeka~
So what does one do on the eve and merdeka day? One of my earliest memories of merdeka is seeing huge displays of national flags flying across shop houses and homes. I remember lining in middle of street in the middle of the night with parent watching convoy parades of decorated theme car with display of fireworks heading towards KL dataran square. There’s the early morning trip down to KL watching the marching of peoples wearing colourful uniforms.
As I grow older merdeka seems to be an overtime work getting tripple pays, night out with friends partying in clubs, a getaway holiday from home and work. This past few year… lepaking in mamak stalls ; this year.. hanging out in cybercafes playing games and countless short session of mamak….aihz.. how dull~ -.-!
Happy Merdeka Day Malaysia! May I find better thing to do next year….

Seclusion
But as time passes, it eats deeper..
Oh, what can I do but to hope?
When despair lies in wait.
What words to describe how much I care?
You once asked me: "Why do you like me?"
There’s so many reasons and yet no reasons
What comes from within need not be spoken.
Some might say it’s too early to say these things
But what do you know how I felt then and now?
I’ve been trying hard to find the right words
Of what that is yet to be..
Thank you.

Game of Speed
Today is the 2nd time I went down to Banting to meet a person that will assist me. The respond been good so far~ will see as time move passes by.
On my way back, I’ve decided to stop by Carey Island for lunch at a restaurant. Carey Island was a popular destination for seafood lovers, the restaurant situated by a river across the island wholly built on planks and stilts. Strong cool sea breeze really create the rustic authentic atmosphere! Been many years since I've here.. the views is just breathtaking~
30 yrs ago before there was dried fried crabs existed, there’s the traditional tomato/chili sauced style cooking. A truly simple dish serves with ‘mantou’ bread is truly heavenly. Even had a bittersweet durian variety for desert~ Super!!

I hope they find great joy pursuing their career and goals for I’m left behind to salvages and achieves the impossible.

Suck To Be Me~ Screw AMBANK~
I was at AMBANK KL today to withdraw my name for a Pajero 2.8 Turbo Diesel which was purchased under company, too my surprised I could not do. During the heyday of my career I was appointed as Director and signed for the purchase of vehicle.
My question now is IF during appointment and signed for vehicle ON Company behalf, but at present resigned and no longer held interest in company; must I continue to bear liabilities of the vehicle and not the company or the new directors?
I started on the 3rd floor, then the 28th floor and finally the 2nd floor of Wisma AMBANK asking questions and finally here’s what I get for an answer. Apparently AMBANK denies all responsibilities (during signing, I clearly remembers that the officer says that I should not be worry as it’s company vehicle) and say that my issue should be within my ex company and me. So in saying.. IF the vehicles lapsed payment or what ever reasons could services the payment.. I should be held responsible.. wtf! Where the justice in the system?
When I ask if AMBANK could repossessed the vehicles or do anything to safe guard my interest; I got a stupid reply “There nothing we could do as the vehicle have excellent payment” Hell yeah! For now you dumbwit! What happen if one day the company decided not TO PAY!! Innocent person like ME would have to bear for it.. arsehole!
There’s some “Good” and “Bad” lesson to be learned from this case.. go figure~
Crap! What a bad day~ FUCK YOU AMBANK!!

Irony irony~
Well it seems today I faced the same situation. I woke late today, as I leave my house I noticed there’s a police car and few other unknown faces infront my neighbour house. It seems that his house got broken into in broad daylight before noon…. What the fuck! All this while I was soundly asleep not knowing of the incident. Now I know when thievery happens.. there’s no knowing as it is purely coincidence! I’m ashamed!
Lately zewt’s post been about names.. today I had teatime in Starbuck with 3 other people whom 2 shares the same name each including myself. Imagine this.. You bumped into us and greets “hie Mike! Mike! and Eric! Eric! …. *How cool is that??

Get Well Soon!
It seem that he fell through the rooftop while showing some Astro dude where the disc is positioned. NEVER! NEVER! CLIMB THE ROOFTOP AND STEP ON THE ROOF TILES UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU’RE DOING AND STEPPING ON!! – Get a specialist to do it for you!
How Bad Can It Be?
2002 A deal went astray; 2.2 acres fraudulently transferred.
2003 Struggles for survival; life savings is emptied.
2004 A rent went bad; smoke and fire over hundred feet that can be seen miles away; severe structural damages.
2005 employed famous litigation lawyer dies in his car in front his house; police rules no foul play; cases fought halfway, eventually got thrown out.
2006 Company B falls; bad management taken over for free with huge liabilities over millions approaching bankruptcy. Pending.
2007 Forcefully evicted; withholds of machinery and good with severe settlements. Caught within 2 damaging conflicting powers.
Every steps has been painful and harsh
Is this the ends or the beginning of more to come?

Future in Trouble
Is there not a way out of all this misery? I’m lost, tired and feeling down. For now I can only anticipate and hope for a ‘miracle’ to happen.
Have a nice weekend as the few good days are fast ending.

Karma Karmic
It was on that very national day eve, that they decided to take a stroll along the beachside by the town. A lot of peoples was there, huge commotion of colourful displays and parade of vehicles with national flag flying off their car hood. Truly a fun filled pleasant night with cool sea breeze blowing. There’s kids and adult strolling up and down the walkway by the beach.
The clock strikes 12 midnight sharp~ buildings come alive with spotlights, horns blare and pyrotechnic fireworks are lighted. Everyone have a good time watching the spectacular display of fireworks for bout 15mins. It was at this moment H saw a dark matter on the ground, he begin to signals the others to check it out. To their surprise it was a wallet! They continue to observe the wallet for quite sometime~ and finally decided to pick it up. After the firework show, they drove off back to the hotel before having a supper and drinks
While in the hotel room, everyone crashes into a single room to pour out the content of the wallet; a couple of hundreds, ID, phonebook, notes and a 2 identical bank ATM cards.
A decision was made; ID will be mailed back to the owner, while the rest of content were to be destroyed. The cash is dispersed. E flips through the notes and phonebook just for self-curiosity.
It was the next morning, final day before driving back home. The group drove downtown for breakfast. On the way they stopped by 7-11 to buy some supplies, mail and stamps. Beside the 7-11 was the exact bank of the ATM’s card. While waiting for the guys at the 7-11, the curious dude gets out of the car and checks the surrounding around the bank for CCTV. E thought he wants to try break the ATM’s pin code.
Good, there’s none~ E begins to insert the card unto the machine and start punching in pin code.. 1st try.. failed! OK~ big deal! Let’s try again~ 2nd try..failed!
E heart palpitated wildly as he attempts the 3rth try….this time he take a look at the notes running through the list of random numbers.. OMFG! E accessed the cash menu! Without thinking twice he pressed, cash out 2 thousand and went back to the car and wait for his friends. His friends got back, E spills what he did earlier. Everyone felt silence for a moment, the hell break loose! Amidst the roars and excitement everyone seems to forget themselves. *The devil won that day.
H decides to scout the town; a planned early home trip was delayed. They circle around the town for 3 hours looking for the ‘safest’ stand alone public ATM machine. The finally found 1 such machine by a deserted tourist walkway in the middle of the town. They park their car across the road and walkover. H begin checking the balance of cash in each ATM’s card, he said a limit of 3 withdrawal each card is not possible to withdraw ‘all’ the cash in the cards.
Again decision is made to send the ID back to the owner through the ID address. The owner of the wallet stays a few states below north, same route line to the way home. A quick checkout is made and the gang even forgets their lunch that day and head straight home. Approaching the owner’s state, the gang turns in and asks for direction to the address. It took an hour to locate the owner’s home and another hour of observing and discuss how the best way to drop the envelope into the house mailbox. The house on the address doesn’t look like a rich person home; all this while E is guilt ridden and feeling really remorseful. The envelope is dropped in the mailbox and the gang left; E takes note of the address and vows one day to return the full sum of cash.
If given a choice to makeover again, E would not try for the pin code for curiosity kills the cat! Every time whenever E thinks of the dark incident ..” when is my ‘Bou Ying’? “

With Your Destiny
Look at the picture above.. what do you see.. ?
Yea.. I’m back playing RPG game due to persistent pestering by guild mate and gaming buddy. I spent a little time hanging out in cc today with them, the usual gaming topic and etc. But I decided I will no longer be a hardcore gamer, instead I will just play to pass time and not grow obsessive over it anymore.
This WYD Global is hosted in Korean. “With Your Destiny” …classic! This time I’ll choose a Sorcerer role; a sexy Mage. I’m pretty sure a lot of people will recognize my character nick in-game.

Last Day at The Stores
I was energetic and restless maybe because it’s my last day. Mike comes to the stores around noon; surprised o.0! Sorry can’t join u go makan, need man the till. He brought along his new laptop, toyed with the function; very cool indeed! Smoke a few fags and off he goes meeting someone.
Noon was pretty boring and my staff seems bored. Ok gave them a little quiz like this
“A wanted to buy a product that cost $97. A have no money so he borrowed from B S50 and C $50 each; so now he have $100.
Upon purchase of the product ($97), A left with $3 balance change. A then gave B $1 and C $1 and hold the balance $1 to be given back to B and C.
B $50 - $1 = $49 and C $50- $1 = $49 = A still owes B and C a total $98
$98 + the A $1 balance = $99
so now tell me.. $100 loan - $99 money owing = Why got a shortage of $ 1??”
Overall I must say I truly have a good time though it’s a little boring this week; maybe it’s because I’m not used to standing around in an enclosed environment anymore. During this brief period of time, I get to know my staff and neighbour stores better; made a few friends. It been fun knowing and serving together with you all :D

4th day in The Stores
Well I decide to open 1 shop today and leave the other shop closed. If there one thing I noticed among the customers are they are all foreigners! During my 4 days here, I only did a few local transaction, which need awful lot of persuasion power. Foreigners on the hand are easy, usually they are very specific bout the shoes that they want with out bargaining for the price.
Nothing much interesting happen today, but I noticed there’s a religion fanatic right in front my stores, everyday from 9.30 till noon, this guy will sit behind the counter playing a preach like sermon by a Buddhist monk while his staff serves the customer *I assume he’s the boss since he never lift his butt to move around till lunch.
Around evening, I’m surprised to see one of the staff look weak, I ask her happen but she is too shy to tell me. My other staff tells me that she didn’t have dinner because she didn’t bring her meal to work today *all the staffs are Achenese*. Well I didn’t say anything, I walk across my store and buy a few sambal ikan bilis bun and gave it to her..
Wednesday 25 July 2007
3rd day at The Stores
Today I woke early searching for my walkie talkie sets.. Cibaiiiii~! Where da fuck is my Motorola T5920?? All I found was an empty box, 2 earpiece, a charger and 1 battery!! Kanina…who been using my set or did I misplaced it somewhere.. kanina~ afraid I be late for work so I gave up. Tiuuzz..no walkie to play for today.. T.T
For the past 2 days, I’m always the first to setup my shop on my floor; I would switch on all the lighting and stay ‘lock’ inside until my staffs arrive. But today I decides not to stay ‘lock’ inside the shop instead I take a stroll around after preopening. Wow! Directly in front of my shop behind a huge pillar there a huge gathering of female workers! Over 14 of them!! Some of them look at me sheepishly *maybe I new gua* then it hits me.. each time I open shop, I be taking a squatting position instead of knelling *like taking a shit* with my ass view facing them.. wow…scary.. o.0!
Surprisingly today the time passes very fast!, around noon Mike come and visit me, yea!! Get to go down McD’s to grab a takeaway back to store makan. Then hell break loose! Niama~ I wanna pangsai!! *take a shit* I always dread this moment, because I mentioned earlier if I’m away.. no sales can be done at store since all my staff do not handle POS, thanks god Mike is there.. He mans the shop while I go pangsai~.
Going to the washroom in shopping complexes requires one to pay a small fee, but since I’m ‘working’ I do not have to pay for it. The cleaner lady is kinda sweet.. she always smiles at me whenever I go toilet.. * I know it’s creepy* but out of courtesy I always smile back. . Ok as I was rushing to the toilet to pangsai, as I approach her desk heading to the gents. She said “Boring~~ yer dik??” *are you bored??* ok! Now this is fucking serious edi.. what she means?? I just put a big smile and rush in the gents! I come to a conclusion while shitting.. I only told my staff and blogs in here that I’m fucking bored here; and now the cleaner lady knows.. shit..there’s no secret in the store! Or she’s probably stalking me.. either way.. I decide not to go near toilet on that particular floor anymore! *empty mineral bottles passing off as Gatorade~ anyone?*
Out of respect for public area in shopping complex smoking is not allowed; but today I don’t give a fuck.. I just smoke in front of the shop, since my smoking buddy a few shop lots away is off and I have Mike with me. Wonderful~!
Sale wasn’t great today. To kill time I device a game for the staffs to play while serving customers in between. I would ask each of them to memorize a section of a shoe rack on display. Then I would sent them off to another shop, while I ‘rearrange’ the shoes. Whoever gets the correct combination of shoe in correct order wins a McD’s meal from me! Hahaha! Spent 3 great hours having a good laugh at my staff’s antics as they try to get the correct combinations and orders! Ultimate winner.. me ofcourse! Since I planned the whole thing and take snapshots of original orders, but still I spent them a meal of McD’s for dinner. Bored but Fun Fun Day!
P/S i'm still down with flu~ crap! and still breathing through a single nostril!! :D
Tuesday 24 July 2007
2nd day in The Stores
Reached the store and setup the store while waiting for staff to arrives.
Took a moment looking at the thousands of shoe model available.. There’s this particular spiked track shoe that attracts me.. anyone care to dance? :D
Now as I sit down on my pos.. I can’t help feeling a little hot~ sweat started to pour.. fuck~! Air-cond down arr??? Nin Na Ma~ It is only when I go kepoh at next store only I know that today is air-cond maintenance day!! Cibai.. panasnyerr!! Imagine stuck in a shopping complex with no proper ventilation and air-conds!! Pubor!! To improvise the swelling condition, I off a few HED spotlight.. still it’s damm fucking hot inside the store.. I spent more time out store than in store today..yippee! Ice cream for the eye!
Today’s sale is better than yesterday making it a less dull day never the less still boring like hell~! I only get to scout my floor area as I have to man the pos system! Shit! Guess tomorrow I have to bring my walkie talkie set to work.. so while I’m on ular mode.. if anything they can radio me~
While on the lift heading to parking bay, I can’t help but to notice this horrible error!
So whose the traitor(pengkhianat)??
Monday 23 July 2007
1st day in The Stores
Monday is sooooooooo fucking boring….sale wasn’t great since it’s nearly end of month ; everyone is broke!… there’s nothing to be done except staring at the store front….shit~ don’t even have nice looking girl.. no ice cream for the eye! :(
The store itself there isn’t any chairs except for stool!, damm my back hurts~ *sign of old age?* and then I can’t leave the store to stroll around because most of the salesgirl on duty are new and they can’t handle POS system!! Arghhh how miserable~ go berak in toilet also I need think twice.. zZzz
Other than that my day is fine.. hope tomorrow will be better.. only 4 more days to go!!

Me: *laughing* Yea, you’re right~ *Niabey! Wanna play sumore want scared~*
Being a typical rich business man, especially Chinese *no offence* it is normal to have 1 or 2, maybe 3 concubine to appease themselves. It is such that traditional Chinese culture believes in harem, consort and concubine; a way to flaunt wealth and show status.
After all being a well off rich man, what is spending a few thousand a month to maintain a ‘private toilet bowl’, which can be use ATAD ‘any time any day’ basis?
Lately I heard news on ‘local part time’ girls. These girls are professionals; holding a day job working in banking sectors, private corporate office and governments. They will work as ‘escort’ performing favors during the evenings. MMS pix profiles are sent to potential customers, reservation is a must and hourly charges upon pickup. How convenient, better than cosplay :D

Sweet Bitter Wednesday
Today is an important day. The day started off with opening of CA at a local bank for a new biz venture after the initial setup, now let’s hope thing would get better now onwards. Been poor for too long, it’s time to turn and fight~!
This coming 23rd till 29th I’ll be at ‘”The Store” handling 2 retail shop for my cousin *away for biz trip to China*. Spent an hour or so at the store after lunch memorizing the SOP there.. Gosh! Been ages since I handle retails, so many things to learn!!. So do look me up so I won’t be bored!
Bitter!
An ancient issue cropped up again! Mahai.. this time it much worse.. I saw padlocks, chain, guard and legal notices~ It never ceases to amaze me how our legal system works..*Sei Tou Pei Hey Ngao Fan Sang - Death can be ressurected through arguement* Pubor! Fuck!
I receive an sms from an old friend today. He’s currently lying in UM with a broken backbone; accident from workplace. Sad~ made a few calls, will visit the poor dude later after ‘settling’ the above.
A supposedly good day turn bad~
Tuesday 17 July 2007
Fire in the Hole~
Due to stress of work and all the fucktards in life. I begin to play CS aka Counter-Strike again!! CS is mod Police vs. Thief game from Half-Life; a 1st person shoot em up styled game. I started playing CS way back in 1999, crossover from Half-Life and got addicted for a long time. Those days CS is an ‘in’ thing for cybercafes; practically booms the CC industries and retires from the game somewhere in 2002.
It all started a few weeks back when my friends are back from Libya and China. It’s over a mamak session beside some cybercafe; someone comes up with an idea to ‘go Bang! Bang!’….rest is history! *who the fcuk say play 1 hour?? Niabey play till 5 am+ *
This continues for a few nights afterward, earliest settles at 3am!!
So now the ‘Bang Bang Buddies’ have gone back China and soon going to Libya. Few days back all of us got together online, installed CS 1.6 hosting server and been playing from homes, offices oversea. Lol, Good fun memories!

Negaraku~ Negarakuku~!
Any truth to this?? hmm.. :D
update:
I Love My Country
Negaraku"
(Repeat) Check it out, yo, yo, yo
(Repeat) Negaraku, Negarakuku
I love my country, only when you have a country you have a home
Only with a home then there will be me, standing here with you
Loudly singing, don't be afraid
Even though I curse all the time
My song, is just like the durian
Tough and spiky, only
To see if you dare to open it, to look at the truth inside
It can be very stinky, it can be very fragrant
It only depends on what kind of nostrils you have
Our police, is called 'Mata'
Because they have very shiny eyes
Once it's New Year, they will be very hard working
Holding pens but they will rarely write you a receipt
Because they are thirsty, they need to drink tea
Also kopi-O, want to add sugar?
If they add sugar, their mouths will sweetly smile at you
When you are leaving
They will even go 'Tata'
Negaraku
Tanah tumpahnya darahku
Rakyat hidup bersatu dan maju
This phenomena, doesn't need improving
Neither does it need strengthening, the police and the people work together
A cup of coffee makes sure our relations don't turn cold
I so very suka
At least I won't go home and receive a 'saman'
My dad will sure be pissed
I will also 'kiong kan' (a swear word), with no car to drive
What to do, this time so very 'kao lat' (meaning something like 'aiyo')
With no car, how do I go out and play
With no car, how do I wage 'wild war' (I don't know what it means but I assume it has something to do with a girl)
With no car, how do I go and watch 'ah kua' (transvestites)
This country, I like it very much
5 in the morning
There's even a morning call to wake me up
Sometimes a few of them will sing together
When you listen to it, it's like a love duet
The voice ululates like singing R&B
Even though sometimes they sing until it's out of tune
Even though sometimes they even sing until their voices break
Some sound like cockerels, but they wake up earlier than them
This way we can know the time to get ready for class and for work
Don't blame, the government only takes cares of the natives
Don't blame, we don't receive equal care
Only this way we can prove that us Chinese are not afraid of hard work
Only this way we can train ourselves to find a solution in hard times
Don't feel weird about their standards
Because this only shows that we are smart (or capable)
Children who are not spoilt will not be dependant
You see some children are still not off being breast-feeded
Rahmat bahagia
Tuhan kurniakan
Raja kita
Selamat bertakhta
People who hide in government departments are even better (even more capable)
They can do everything so slowly
Even when the people in the queue, are cursing stinky 'lelai' (what's that?)
Their feelings will still be free and easy
Sometimes they even bring out their kuih
They eat their nyonya kuih
Your queue can keep on queuing
Even when you curse stinky 'lelai' it doesn't matter
Because the guard at the side is dreaming
And he won't scold you one lah
They wrap up their heads; walk slowly and cross the road slowly
When you pass in the car you even have to let them pass first
The most important is to live happily; the most important is to live comfortably
Don't be like the Chinese
Busy the whole day, so very tough
We really cannot, not admire this spirit
Because this is their attitude in life
(Attitude, attitude)
I've been saying good things in this song
I believe those of you who are pissed at me will like this now
The world is peaceful, and full of hope
No one is hurt, neither are there any riots
You're so classy, you're so elegant
Your shit is fragrant, and you don't curse
You guys are the most high class, every day it's just romancing
Listening to 'Guang Liang Pin Guan' (this local Chinese artiste)
But he has already ran to Taiwan
Private school students graduate
It's so very tough to get admitted into local universities
Actually we don't have to get pissed about this issue
Actually this is the a very noble plan of the government's
It wants us to run all over the world, to find hope for ourselves
To learn things and come back to repay the country
This is plan is so good until there's nothing to say
All over the world you can see Malaysia's children
Like they're refugees, so very shiok
2007, Malaysia's having Visit Malaysia Year
The Chinese culture is brought out and paraded
The government doesn't even care about private school students
The certificate is thrown into the longkang, just like me
Graduated and went to Taiwan
Learnt about things, and got ready to come back to repay my country
I stood on the streets of Taipei with my guitar
But my mouth still sings
Rahmat Bahagia
Tuhan kurniakan
Raja kita Selamat bertakhta

The Tale Part 2 'The Down Fall'
(Case A) So here’s what happen. The MD of the company did not inform the shareholders, directors and proceeds to use ‘Company X’ to obtain factoring loan in form of LC ‘letter of credit’. The MD forges all documentation and invoices, passing Company X as an supplier. When such manipulation is discovered, questioned is asked and no one seems to have a clue of what is happening. Office in KL are claimed ‘broken’ into and all computer equipment, documents and records are missing; when the directors and shareholders asked for a financial status.
Work progression is still ongoing in the factory for that month as order must be completed, but toward the end production came to a cease as there just isn’t any money left to roll~. The loan from the leasing corporation have now runs in hundred of thousands in penalties and liabities over millions. An emergency meeting is called, the MD and the financial manager of the company is no where to be found. Decision is made and the company contract was taken over by a certain influencial person (DH) at no cost; total handover. In returns (DH) agrees to settle the loan from the leasing corporation and all the owing suppliers. Factory, machinery and workers are ‘rented’ by (DH) to fabricate and continue the production..
The MD and the finanacial manager has disappear since then, not listenning to phone calls or willingly come out to see the directors and shareholders. A Police report is filed against them for fund manpulation, CBT and fraudgery of documentations.
As for the kid~ haha... life's great isn't it?
more to come...

Xian Jian Qi Xia Zhuan
Zhong Yi Ming Bai "Finally Understand" - Power Station
Looking at you, slowly leaving
Fate is like a tide
Drowning me, cannot breathe
Floating in the black sea
How can I get used to, a future that has lost you
How can I keep the clouds that are gradually fading
Lying to myself, that love is still present
But tears are not ending
Fate has destined a future without you
Dont lose, don't forget the blankness that is gradually fading
Dont say anything, I don't want to understand
At least i still have the beautiful dreams
Don't say anything, I really don't want to understand
Finally understand, I should let go Finally understand,
I should let go Looking at you, slowly leaving
(repeats)
Tears are not ending

Public Law
If the Police catches a crook, the Police are only enpower to detained, interrogate and investigate the ‘case’. Upon completion investigation of the case, it will be brought upon to the DPP (Deputy Public Prosecutor). DPP are the ultimate decision maker for the case in the end, even the Police have no authority to prove DPP's decision otherwise. This is where to real power lies!!

The Ancient - Part I
Working life in banking sector is somewhat “A sharpen blade put to rust” mentality. Enviroment are stable; income secured and basically lives a sheltered life with no concern of what’s happening to the world. A little investment and insurance selling was done here and there's some savings (A) accumulated over the years. 27+ years have since passes by then~
Upon early retirement, (A) begins to wonder what he could do in days to come; (A) took time off relaxing for quite a while;bout 5 year doing insurance. Just then a fellow ex bank colleague (B) comes into picture and invite him for a business partnership deal, a line of business that carries forward to present day.
(B) holds a MBA in business and works for a fabricating company(CoF). (B) suggests to (A) that they formed a company (CoAB) sub contracting from (CoF). Initial starts of the company were difficult as (A) and (B) did not have the capitals. (A) ancestral land were used as collateral to secures loan through licensed moneylenders at (B) recommendations (mistake 1). Many improper signing of documents and oaths was sign in blank to secure the loan; reasons being for safekeeping and securities (mistake 2).
(CoAB) finally took off, (B) was running the whole show, while the ‘ignorant’ (A) took a back seat assuming everything is ok (mistake 3). With the ‘loaned’ capital; land is filled and levered, factory built, a rented outside the land premises administration office renovated and a lot of ‘unwanted’ employee (mistake 4). Money is lavishly spent for everyone again assumes that this is the way to do ‘business’ (mistake 5).
continues some other time~
