updates

it's almost 2.5 months since i last blog..

what happened since then ??

My favourite team won the Barclay's Premier League, lost out in the final of the champions league to Barcelona and was a semifinalist of the FA CUP losing to neighbours, Manchester City..

Then in Tennis French Open , my favourite, Roger Federer lost to Rafael Nadal in the final and just only, Federer lost to Tsonga in Wimbledon Quarter Final, even though he was leading 2 sets to none.. So now am looking forward to the last grand slam of the year, US OPEN this coming September...

Personal Front : My grandmother passed away at the age of 95.. so it's been a journey back and forth to Penang 3 times in a space of 2 months, the most i have done since coming down to KL for 1 year plus...

Working Wise : gone through ups and down of life so there is nothing much to say...

and i am excited of going back to study, not study as in STUDY.. but learning new language real soon.. it's hoping it's going to be FUN, FUN , FUN! :) :) :)

and i want to go for a vacation so badly!!!!! OCTOBER I CANT WAIT FOR YOU TO COME!

It's 2-0-1-1 Already!

With a blink of eye it's Two-Owh-One-One already..and It has been more than 3 months since i last blog.

Time flies pretty fast it seems within those month of commonwealth games in October, Asian Games in November and of course the football AFF Suzuki Cup where Malaysia became CHAMPIONS of SOUTH EAST ASIA for the very 1st time beating Indonesia.. woohooo... Congratulations! It has been an awesome Sporting Year!

Let's just recap 2010 in a bit.

- It was the year i decided that i got to move to KL for a career i always have been dreaming of having.. and it really Finally did come through when i accepted the job offer in February.
- It was also a year where i make more new friends
- Also, the year where sporting events in terms of Malaysian athletes making us proud!


Starting with our very own Sukma in May, followed by the World Cup in June, then Youth Olympic Games in Aug, Commonwealth Games in Oct, Asian Games in Nov and Suzuki Cup in December. in between those, of course smaller scale local sporting events.

I thoroughly enjoyed myself very much.

Moving Forward, 2-0-1-1 started with a bang as well... I did not even expected i will be out of the country so early of the year, i was in taiwan for 4 days plus to cover the Badminton Super Series Final as a reporter. writing story and doing a piece of myself in front of camera..

It was really, really an awesome experience for me and thanks to my boss for making it happen for me. Really appreciate the opportunity given even though i was really reluctant at first. as i was informed 3 days before the event start that i got to go to Taiwan. it was surreal, and of course all my time there i did not have appetite for food as i was nervous as hell looking for 2 stories per day. Luckily all went well in the end!

Did not really got to enjoy Taipei but will surely be back to visit Taiwan next time.

and i am so looking forward to my Bangkok Trip next week.. cant wait for it already.

then the week after that, it's CNY already... So looking forward to spend quality time in Penang this time around with moi family and friends!

Let's just hope 2-0-1-1 bring in more surprises, hopefully in a good way and that i keep living on my dreams.

No Resolution or so, but let just hope the World stays awesome and everyone be blessed alwiz! =)

31st Aug

so it's a holiday.. independence day where you are supposed to show your patriotism towards your country...but wwhy am i feeling that this year's celebration is a bit gloomy.. and it was also my off day.. and i slept way past 12 in the noon..

after a loooong hard work weekend.. you just wanna be on your bed as long as u can.. and need not worry about work....but i am workin on this weekend again..dunno how many straight weekends i have been working now..

and at this moment of time, i am wondering whether my dreams is being achieved or i am still far away from what i wanted all this while.. sigh.. it's hard to really determine what you really want but i am blessed on what i have now..maybe would just like to improve myself more to have a greater achievement...

I do believe in faith and karma, and hopefully everything just turn right for me..

p/s : i've been confirmed and my year end holidays are approved already!!! woohoooooo...

all in one

i just got the urge to blog when i know i should be sleeping as i will still be working this coming monday morning cum afternoon.... (wat ever u could called it.. as my working hours is werid)
but i know I HAD TO spill all out what i am feeling now..

how my sunday started so great and how it ended sooo badly at 12am midnight!

work was ok... and since it;s still in the fasting month, we finished everything early and went to bazaar ramadhan to buy some stuff.. but on the way back to office from the bazaar.. accident just happenned.. pity the motorist for they both we, (my colleague and i ) assumed they are heading back home after tapao-ing stuff from the bazaar but they were knocked down by car who didnt see them.. damm it.. thank god they were ok..

back to office.. everything was perfecto with the breaking of fast and all.. and went i sat down back to do my work...dang.. the sienna (a tapeless system we are using.. decided to make problems and died on us when it matters the most).. things just got worst from then.....

i was 5 minutes to on air at 11.00pm when my graphics couldnt be play out live and we had to rectify the problems and re-recorded the news again for the repeat at 2am.. damm it..
mind you that we were in a new control room and studio (actually being downgraded and i never hate english premier league so much than now!!!!)

finished with everything... there were glimmers of hope seeing koo/tan winning our 1st ever gold medal in the world badminton championship.. but it wasnt meant to be.. wining the 1st set, they fought in the 2nd set.. but just could not hold on and gave the chinese pair 2nd set game point.. on the 3rd final & rubber set.. they were trailing all the way.. and i was as ever, hoping for a comeback from them.. cause they played one if not THEIR best MATCH out there.. and luck was also not on their side with the net call and all.. but they really give all they have out there.. and it just wasnt meant to be.. even more sad seeing china sweeping all the 5 title for grab!

but wat i was even more sad was that some of the colleagues was actually saying that they are useless and did not win anything before.. hello... do you even watch and follow or read what they have achieved.. i know it cant be compared with the chinese pairs... but hey, they play their heart out there on that match., and you over there just seat down and criticising them without actually knowing what sports is about.. damm it..

no point talking to useless people.. and i just ditch them without speaking a word..cause it's just not worth my time and effort!

see... i pour everything out here.. but congratulations also to our hockey team, also in Paris, winning the 5 Nations Tournament...

and also, congrats to our young Diver, Pandelela Rinong for winning 2 silver medal in the inaugural Youth Olympics Games.. and like the scenario above she lost both to the gold medallist from the same country... BUT i am EVER proud of her.. cause she was injured prior to the game and she still managed to deliver back to our country..Kudos also to our young rhytmic gymnast, lee wan nin.. she managed a decent 4th placing.. considering she was only a wildcard entry.. with more training and exposure.. i am sure one day she will be a force to reckon...

last but not least, still it was a great result considering we never expected koo/tan to go into the finals.. our prediction was only a q-final appearance.. and they did go one step better than their semifinal appearance last year.. I, still do have faith in them to deliver in the upcoming commonwealth games and asian Games.. come on Malaysia, beat the china team at the Asian Games in Guangzhou!

for now, Tennis last GRAND SLAM of the year, THE US OPEN, starting on Monday!!

how fun sports can be...

Blocking Blog

it's been a while since i last blog merely because i cant find that spark or inspiration to write down what i wanted to...

it has always been about writing it and saving it on draft and delete it at the end, cause i am lacking of creative way to write and post it up here.

lots of stuff happenned since i last wrote ie:

a) the winner of the world cup 2010 in SA is no other than Spain, though my team so NEARLY made it.. but luck was not on their side as they had to settle for the runner-up spot again. sigh.

b) and i did went back to Penang for 5 days earlier in August but somehow my trip this time wasnt what i thought it would be.. but anyway, i was glad i DID went back.

c) it's so sad when you was given the promise/hope on one thing and let the one thing taken away from you and now that you have the hope again, and i really wonder will that become a reality or will it be taken away from me as well. Only time will tell.

d) not to mention, the English Premier League is back for 2010/2011 season but why do i not have that spark in me to actually LOVE it like i used to back then.. right now, i just wish i could enjoy more local sports coverage than ever and making local sports the BIGGEST SPORTS in our COUNTRY.

e) is proud that Malaysia finally land a medal (silver) at the inaugural Youth Olympics Games in Singapore. Medal was won by Diver, Pandelela Rinong in the 10M platform event, losing out only to the China Diver. Kudos, and congratulations!

f) is contemplating on what she really wants to do and going for it!

g) really should be changing her blog layout but is so lazy to do that!

h) believer in Karma and what goes around really comes around!

i) and please be yourself and not others, and don't take credit when it's not yours and pretending that you are so smart and what not!

j) last but not least i heart my family more than ever and not to forget my lovely old friends out there! =)

all for now, till i really can actually like to blog again.

do what u got to do to get it right?

It is THAT terrible. i am missing my family very much especially mummy dearest.
and how come i did not feel this way at all the last few times i was away and i think this is the most difficult one as i know this is the phase of life where i am going to face ALONE.
Alone in this place where i freak out everytime i walk on the street, driving and what not.
The last few times when i was away, i wasnt feeling tat bad, because i knew that i would be going back to Penang.. but it is completely different now because i know that once i am out here.. i would not be going back to Penang and stay there permanently.

I knew if i had stayed back over in Penang, i would not have to worry on everything because everything i wanted is there but i feel i needed moments to be away from everything and to start anew and to embark on the new transition in life.. Career life.

maybe perhaps work hasnt kicked in yet and that i have more time to myself and i worried to much? what if i could not make it here? what if's and what not.. i hate that feeling very much.

I know what i have got to do to make things right but i just cannot think that being away from family is THAT difficult. guess, i will just have to go through this and let time heals everything.
I will try to make an effort to go back to Penang as often as i can.. :)

and so to stay positive and not rant to much, i am praying for a good week of work ahead!

toast to a new beginning

remembered how i wrote when i was dreading for time to quickly turn to august 2010 and how i rambled on my job? wait no more.. in a week time.. i am gone for good..for REAL!

** i finally made the decision to resign from my job and had done so**
although, i am sorry to leave, but a decision has to be made, and you don't just leave but you leave because you are a step closer to chase your dreams, and of course, being a person that i am, if you had the chance, wont you not take it? so yeah, i am now gearing up to a new beginning and cannot wait to start off a fresh in the year 2010, and coincidentally, the year of tiger in the chinese zodiac...(d year i was born) RAWRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

I was in a state of euphoric, elated and all when the news broke out to me that i have gotten the job, on that day itself it was marred by the stupid administration in the company that i am working with because there is a 2nd level escalation which i do not think it is our fault. screw up that, because the happiness in me just by pass/or enough to make me think the decision to leave at that point was a FANTASTIC decision.

so yeah, decision has been made, most ppl there was surprised (after they got to know last week that i am leaving, cause i kept it a secret and only my boss knew when i tendered in my resignation) and they don't think that i am a person who is passionate, outdoor going and all.. maybe because i was keeping a low profile all these while and did not want to associate myself with them.. never mind then, because i had promised and told myself before, no matter what happens, in 1 year time, i would be out of my misery there! so yeah, since i am out early, it is good! i cannot cannot be like them!!!!!

i am looking forward to the new challenges and sad in a way that i would be leaving Penang soon, real sooon...
i will miss my family, friends and food dearly.. (3F)...

till next time, buh byeeee

I need help!

I shall start with my free trip on Rapid Penang when the provide free trips for THREE days fro 31st Jult till 2nd August 07.

I went to the Bas Hub in Weld Quay to try my ride from there to Sg Dua(USM). I took the free booklet that was distributed and flipped through to see which bus should i take. Namely U301, U303 are the buses that will pass thru sungai 2. I waited there for 15-20minutes. No sign of bus going to Sg2. written there the frequency of the bus is at the interval between 20/30mins. Disappointed, but i continued waiting for i really want to try after years of not taking a public transportation. So finally, U303 came. I hop into the bus and took my seat. Was clean and nice la.. 1st impression. Then came this old lady who asked the bus driver on whether will this bus passed Sg 2, the bus driver ignore her and say "tak tahu". What the heck??? written in the newspaper, the drivers are TRAINED and will be courteous.. but this, is a bastard, no manners driver who never did his duty well. The lady board the bus and asked a few of us whether this bus will be heading to Sg2, we told her yes.. and she took her seat. I was thinking.. this is not good. I hate it and the public transportation in Penang will not improve.

And what written in newspaper as well is the drivers WILL NOT wait till the bus is full before the y move to the next destination.(Maybe it is because this is a free ride, so why not make it full 1st) I was wrong.. they did wait at the hub for the bus to be filled before they move on. Plus 20minutes to wait for the bus in hub and plus extra 25minutes seating in the bus before the bus move. I am in Weld Quay for F***ing almost one hour. and i was relieved when the bus started moving after that.From the booklet provided, U303 was supposed to leave the Hub to Jalan Jelutong via the expressway.. so i tot i could reach faster, boy i was wrong again. THe driver had to turned into Komtar to fecth more passengers. The crowd was packed in Komtar and everyone was pushing their way up into the bus. The whole bus was sardine packed. I was geram because the driver did not follow the route as written. After much stopped and other place he went be4 following the actual route back, i was already started cursing at Rapid Penang and sweared that THIS WILL BE THE 1ST and LAST TIME I AM ON BOARD USING RAPID PENANG!!!. The journey from Weld Quay to USM, SG 2 took me 1.5hours, where by car or by other public transportation i could easily reached by 30mins time.

The reason i took Rapid Penang was because i was Impressed with Rapid KL everytime my trip down to the city centre. But R.Penang has prove me wrong with the rude bus driver as well/

Maybe others might enjoy Rapid Penang and think that their service is good but not for me. They let me down. No more public transportation. Wonder with LRT soon... will it help to solve problems in Penang??? I am wondering...

On the next issue, the Malaysia Film Festival. I attend the forum yesterday. The forum was on the challenges and trend in malaysia film nowadays. Why the heck questions regarding language being brought up. Not really related on the problems being discussed. And the panels agreed that the main problem is money matters and some other issue that will bring the glory of films in Malaysia. But other issue has to be brought up. Dissapointed though. Even the anugerah at night was a bit monotonous and boring. I wanted to attend but guess luck was not on my side as i was somewhere else. Lazy to elaborate on this anymore.

I realised that i am becoming lazier this days. Reason being that all work and assignments given are not done yet. and if i have free time, i prefer sleeping or do nothing rather than get my ass off doing more useful stuff. I am becoming a pig for being so lazy. Please help me!!!! I could not find myself and feel like running away from all problems than facing them. But i have to faced them yet i am confused.
