15 minutes

I guess I can sort of write something out in this 15 minutes. Well, life been pretty much so-so lately, though at time I feel that there is always a room for a change, for a certain things of course. I missed someone i used to love, but that was history, taking a step forward and not looking back is what people always told me. But I'm not a forgiver, and therefore I don't forget people easily. sorry but that has always in my gene, I forgive but not easily forget.

This is what happened when you get yourself drunk

The clan and I were having a blast last Friday night (31st July), and guess what happened when you fill in 2 bottles of Vodka into your system?

Answer: A drunk guy sms-ing his ex saying "I hate you! I hate you so much!".

To be frank, I did not even realize I was texting anyone that night. All I know was I came back around 2, went for a bath and head straight to the bed and sleep. When I woke up the next morning and browsing through "sent" items, the above text came out, damn!

Big sis came for a 2 months visit with little Amanda since June. It is always nice to welcome new members in the family. How I missed Amanda so much. Bro-in-law came last week to accompany them (Big sis and little Amanda) back to Bintulu.

Cute little Manda

My family is having sore throat, but none of them were having flu-like symptom, so that's a good news. I had mine last week but luckily I took an early precaution by taking some lozenge.

By the way, some of you might wonder why is this post entitled 15 minutes. Well, it's 15 minutes before 9pm and I've got nothing to do, so I thought of dropping for a while before I actually do my assignments.

Lacking of post

Sorry about the lacking of post guys, been away lately to settle some unfinished business and coping up with some emotional aftermath. Anyway, I' m getting sick of my background and layout, I'm going to spice it up a bit, hopefully by this week *fingers crossed*.

Spring cleaning

Sorting out clothes that I have been collected for the past 6 years is probably the most tedious job I have ever done in my room. It took me 3 hours just to do it. Flashes of the past memories vividly came to me as I was browsing through the clothes one by one. There were clothes that I used to wear during my diploma commemoration dinner, the one I wore during my final year dinner, St. John Ambulance uniform, not to forget the company uniform and other clothes of all sort that was still neatly hang.

I must admit those days that I use to spent a lot on my attire. There are some shirts that were bought which I only wear on certain occasion and never been touch ever since. And there were also shirts which I think their sizes are too large or too small for me. Some clothes however, are still in good condition and “wearable”. So I decided to wash (due to unpleasant odor because it was kept in the closet for so long) and keep some of them for a reason that I would not buy any clothes (at the moment) because of economic recession, how ironic is that? And hopefully I would wear them, after all the washing and ironing fuss.

Each of the clothes was separated into 3 categories;
1. Clothes I will most likely going to wear
2. Clothes for donation and
3. Clothes that is out of trend waiting to be dump

After spending 3 hours of sorting, I found out that there were more clothes that should be out of the closet than that of the one I occasionally use. So you see, I am a bit sentimental in terms of collecting item. There was once I used to complaint about my habit to a friend and she came out with no solution. She even told me that I might have OCD and should seek help from a professional. Well, I thought it would be nice if I had extra income and if there is an OCD expert in Kuching.

By the way, after the closet, I might going to throw away some of the books and notes that were kept since I was in form 5.

Life, Love, family and relationship

Rasanya sudah lama aku tidak menyentuh laman blog ku ini. Kali terakhir aku mencoret cebisan hatiku adalah lebih daripada sebulan yang lalu. Aku terlalu sibuk sejak beberapa ketika ini. Sibuk dengan kerja, kehidupan, perhubungan dan juga keluarga. Lantas, dalam kesibukan aku mengejar masa untuk memenuhi kesemua yang aku katakan tadi, pelbagai liku-liku kehidupan yang aku tempuhi, ada berita sedih, ada juga berita gembira. Tetapi yang pasti, aku tetap bersyukur kerana aku masih bernafas, dapat meneruskan kehidupanku seperti biasa, dan juga mengejar cita-citaku yang telah lama aku impikan selama ini.

Gawai yang lepas disambut seperti biasa saja, tidak terlalu meriah dan tidak juga terlalu bosan. Kunjungan kami sekeluarga cuma dikalangan orang-orang terdekat dan juga jiran-jiran di kampung. Seperti biasa hari pertama dan kedua, kebanyakan masa dihabiskan untuk minum-minum sampai mabuk, aku juga tidak terkecuali. Disaat gawai disambut, keluargaku juga dikhabarkan dengan berita gembira yang mana kakakku telah selamat melahirkan bayi perempuan yang diberi nama Amanda Elsy. Baru berusia beberapa minggu, dengan berat hampir 3 kilo, Amanda mempunyai rambut yang lebat dan juga aktif bergerak. Nampaknya hajat kakak untuk gawai bersama tahun ini tidak kesampaian kerana dia terpaksa menghabiskan masa pantangnya di Bintulu.

Selang beberapa hari selepas gawai disambut, kami sekeluarga dijemput untuk menghadiri majlis perkahwinan saudaraku di Sri Aman. Dalam perkiraan aku, dialah saudara perempuan terakhir yang sama “batch” dengan usiaku yang melangsungkan perkahwinan untuk dekad ini. Rasanya untuk menunggu saudara perempuanku yang lain masih ada lebih 5-8 tahun lagi kerana kesemuanya masih lagi bersekolah. Amat menakjubkan dimana kesemua saudara-mara tidak kira dekat ataupun yang jauh dijemput untuk memeriahkan suasana pada malam itu. Bukan apa, majlis berlangsung di restoran, jadi panorama sebegitu jarang aku alami, apatah lagi apabila kesemua saudara sebelah mak yang datang tidak kiralah dari Malaya ataupun dari utara Sarawak. Ada yang aku kenal, ada juga yang aku tidak kenal dan langsung berkenalan pada malam itu.

Perhubunganku dengan rakanku kini kurasakan semakin renggang. Tetapi yang pasti aku merindui seseorang… Michelle, rakan yang aku kenal semasa di Kapit. Aku merindui dia kerana aku berasa seronok sekali bila menghabiskan makan malam dengannya dan menempah “sotong goreng butter” dan juga “babi hutan masak halia”…yum..yum…tidak lupa juga “daging rusa masak kicap”. Hanya di Kapit sahaja makanan eksotik sebegitu dihidangkan dengan harga yang jauh lebih murah dan berpatutan berbanding Kuching. Cel, kalo ko makan makanan eksotik yang aku sebutkan tadi nyagkong k (meleleh dah air liur ni…slurrrp!).

Aku tidak tahu-menahu tentang khabar dari rakan-rakanku yang lain sejak kebelakangan ini. Kali terakhir aku dengar khabar dari rakan baikku adalah seminggu sebelum gawai. Itupun berjumpa sekadar untuk memenuhi permintaan untuk “berjumpa” sahaja. Belum hangat lagi kerusi yang aku duduk terus dia meminta diri. Kelakuannya juga pelik sejak kebelakangan ini, aku tidak berani komen, hanya aku merasakan jarak kami berdua sekarang amat jauh. Cuma aku berharap dia tidak lupakan kawannya yang lain, itu sahaja.

Pehubungan peribadiku pula tidak jauh berbeza. Sampai sekarang aku masih tertanya-tanya dimana silapku. Tetapi semua yang terjadi serba sedikit mengajarku erti waspada di harimuka. Aku redha dengan segala yang berlaku, tetapi aku tidak akan putus untuk merenung keatas dan meminta petunjuk dariNya.

Kerjaku pula semakin mencabar dari hari ke hari. Baru sahaja kelmarin integriti perkerjaanku dipersoalkan oleh rakan sejawat. Aku serba sedikit terkejut, tetapi mengambil iktibar daripada komennya yang mengatakan bahawa kerjaku “behind schedule”. Cuma satu yang ingin aku perkatakan disini, aku tidak bekerja dengan memakan gaji buta. Dan tidak bekerja setakat untuk “menghabiskan” kerja tanpa menghiraukan kepuasan pelanggan. Aku hairan, dan tertanya-tanya sekiranya senario bekerja di tempat kerjaku kini hanya untuk “menghabiskan” kerja sahaja? Bagaimana pula dengan masalah pelanggan yang datang? Adakah itu diambil kira? Aku rasa tidak, sebab itulah mereka mempersoalkan jadualku kerana banyak menghabiskan masa untuk melayan masalah pelanggan. Kalau ikutkan perasaan aku ingin sekali “menembak” balik rakanku itu, tetapi aku kawal perasaanku. Baiklah, jika sekiranya mereka merasakan kerjaku “behind schedule”, tengoklah nanti aku pecut macam “bullet train’ sampai juling mata pelangganku.

Cuma aku berharap lain kali dia jangan “keypo” sangat nak komen-komen tentang kerja orang lain, cermin muka tu dulu! Kalau ikutkan dari segi akademik, aku dengan dia tidak setaraf langsung. Aku lebih bijak mengatur strategi untuk meng”improve”kan kepuasan pelanggan sedangkan dia hanya tahu untuk memakan gaji buta sahaja, jadi jadualku mungkin berbeza daripada yang lain.

Kehidupanku pula kurasakan semakin membaik dari hari ke hari. Cuma sekarang aku jarang berkunjung ke rumah Tuhan. Aku tahu “sibuk” bukanlah satu alasan yang baik. Mungkin Ahad ini aku luangkan masa dan pergi menunaikan hajatku. Keadaanku pula...semakin gemuk semenjak gawai, mungkin selepas ini aku patut “exercise” sedikit untuk menbuang lemak berlebihan.

Updating

Earlier this week I received news telling me that one of my staff have just passed away. I just know a little about him because I am only attached to my station for almost 5 months now. As far as I am concern, he has been struggling with his illness for quite sometime. Even when I first came here, he just had his operation at the general hospital.

This week, I have been busy settling matters regarding his bereavement. Apart form my own work, I have to put aside my personal matters, which I should have been settle earlier this week. But I understood the priority here is to clear up all the matters on my late staff because his next of kin would be asking for his claims later.

Had my dinner with Cel last few days at our usual place, and ask her some words of wisdom. Had a good chat with her that night, and sent her stuff to her new place after we finished our dishes. She said she will have an induction in Kuching for the whole month until June. I am so envious...

Heard that we are going to have our next computation course next June but I do not know the exact date yet, that is if I am still around. But I’ve determine that any decision on what I have made earlier, I have to do it by this week. I can’t wait no longer because I had a restless sleep just to think about it. Moreover, I am already tired of thinking about the matter and I just want to finish it as soon as possible.

Lil’ sis called me up this morning; she told me that she got herself on the candidate list for form 6 students, but has yet to check on it at her school. Hopefully she will make it through because I am eager to see her continuing her study, if not to the higher learning institute, at least to form 6.

Called big sis yesterday to ask her condition; she have been coping up well with the baby in her belly. She told me that the baby constantly kicking and moving around (inside her belly of course). I was told that she will due sometime this June, can’t wait to have my first “anak buah”…hehe…



P/s: Tired of this life...

Laskar Pelangi

The lyric...are just so meaningful to me.


Laskar pelangi

Mimpi adalah kunci, untuk kita menaklukkan dunia
Berlarilah, tanpa lelah sampai engkau meraihnya
Laskar pelangi, takkan terikat waktu
Bebaskan mimpimu di angkasa
Warnai bintang di jiwa

Menarilah dan terus tertawa
Walau dunia tak seindah syurga
Bersyukurlah pada yang kuasa
Cinta kita di dunia, selamanya.

Cinta kepada hidup,
memberikan senyuman abadi
Walau hidup, kadang tak adil
Tapi cinta lengkapi kita

Laskar pelangi, takkan terikat waktu
Jangan berhenti mewarnai
Ciptaan mimpi di bumi

Menarilah dan terus tertawa
Walau dunia tak seindah syurga
Bersyukurlah pada yang kuasa
Cinta kita di dunia, selamanya
