Mom

Mom don't seem to have a good day yesterday. She was pretty angry with dad over some conversation they had on the phone. It was not an adult kind of fight, just a kiddo fight kind of. And I don't understand why mom make a big deal out of it.

The situation goes like this:

Dad was on his way to work (outstation) when mom called him, asking why he did not call her the day before. Dad had a hard time listening to what mom said because of bad connection. So dad have to shout instead of talking, which gets mom up to her nerve. After a few while, dad called back and explained the situation, but mom wouldn't listen.

I admit that men can be pretty ignorance at times, unlike women who is more sensitive. Mom nagged about the issue to me and lil' sis the whole morning. Instead of giving her some advice, lil sis encourage her to do the same on dad. Me on the other hand, dare not to talk about it, because I believe they are old enough to handle the situation.

Last night lil sis and me had some discussion about the matter, and she told me that perhaps mom is having her menopause. I couldn't agree much on her on that, because mom have been in a terrible mood swing for the last few months. And belive me, you don't want to get near her when she starts to nag about something.

2 Months in The Highlight

Been a while since my last update. The last time was on August, I guess and that was 2 months ago. Nothing much really happened, life is getting along as usual.

By the way, had a visit to friends house last raya. It was so-so I must say, but I really enjoy the companionship as well as the food. Thank you so much guys!

Dad is going to have a week traveling beginning tomorrow. So I'm going to be very busy fetching lil sis from school next week. Fortunately, I have pretty ample time these days so there would be no problem at all. Mom on the other hand, is pretty much occupied with her "desperate housewife" business around the neighborhood. There is not a single day without her "hot stories" so I would say that's pretty normal right?

Big Sis says lil Amanda is getting bigger, how i miss her so much. I was told he could baby talk which is so damn cute! Just this afternoon big sis and bro in law got her a new gown for their church anniversary.

My work...so far so good. Bella text me this morning and told me that my cloning and transformation works. What I'm going to do now is to extract and identify the gene. Frankly, I've never done this far because I failed cloning part when I was doing my undergraduate project. So what's next? Finish up the other 2 genes which is yet to be clone...

Love life and special relationship? I'm far from looking around at the moment, and am pretty much enjoy being single. 4 months, which is more than enough time for me to look into my inner-self. I do miss K sometimes, but I know I'm not alone, there are friends and family around me, and yes...I love them so much!

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.

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.
