I bought a couple of bras, dvds ( because no bf to watch with so have to buy dvds loh, all ur fault ws! ) , and some T-shirts as souvenirs for my hsemates. That's it! Im sooooo...... stingy eh. =( im gonna spend more when im in KRABI , NEXT WEEK!!! gawd, i want more moneyyyyy...$$$
Coming next week, 08 Aug 09 to Krabi, Again! Yes, AGAIN! Im not sure which island im gonna visit this time. hmmm..maybe just do some real activities to burn my fats away... im putting on so much weight already! =(
Looking forward for my Baby Wei Siong to be back next week from the UK. Im so anxious!! Wonder how he will look like after 1 year. sobs, im pretty sure his hair has grown longer...erm, bigger in size, erm perhaps darker? ahhh, im not sure what im expecting and the day is drawing nearer.

unsatisfaction ~ MAD post ! ~
Irregardless with whatever is concerned, Im freaking MAD with almost everything since yesterday!
When I am mad, I will go to the mall and shop... I will enter any of the trendy restaurant just to sit down and have some nice food to cheer myself up a little. But all these doesnt seem to help anymore! I even nag and nag and nag the whole night with my dear roommate..poor thing.hehe.Sigh...I really need to find a new way to de-stress myself. Can anyone volunteer to monitor my mood status ? LOL.
Easily you will be able to detect my mood status from my face!
Fortunately, ever since i started working in a travel agent, i realised that we sometimes need to wear a mask and hide our facial expression no matter how angry we were deep inside. this is a valuable lesson learnt!!
Gosh my mood really gone real bad these days...... Due to that , now i am officially broke! moreover more trips is jumping in to my schedule..PHUKET next week!
P/S : if you think im not worth for your sacrifice, don't sacrifice. Don't make me feel like im forcing you to do something which you are unwilling to do..or you are just doing it just for the sake of completing your so called responsibility. It's worthless to me...it does not mean anything to me yet i feel furious!

ups & downs
My blog is so dead. Haven't been updating for months already!
My previous tour to Shanghai went well and had a great time over there . Of course, all my tour members very guai... tee-hee-hee. The most important part, meeting nice ppl on the road. good local guide and coach captain. =D all in all, enjoyable!! enuf said...
Now, looking forward to my next trip to Phuket on the 25th July 09. With all my fellow colleagues, going crazy & wild in Phuket. ( except me =P ) im gonna be good and tame...LOL.
Business has been really bad in travel industry. All because of the H1N1 disease. This deadly virus has spread to many countries and now it is still spreading continuously. So, how bad is bad? NO ONE dares to travel at this moment, they rather let their deposits and full payment to be forfeited rather than risking their precious life to travel. It's stupid. It isn't that bad afterall. They just exaggerate it and make it sounds realllllyyyyy terrible... I went to Shanghai, yes, they took precautions on it, making us scared and worried. A few astrounuts looking humans will board our plane checking each of our body temperature before letting us go. And worse still, the immigration queue became longer,coz they have another screening AGAIN. Wasting almost an hour before getting to the luggage claim area. Gosh! hassle hassle!!! geezzzz....
Furthermore, our flight was delayed upon returning to KUL!!! One of the passenger was having fever ( flight from Kul to Shanghai ) and got quarantined upon arrival. Therefore, they need to sterilize the whole aircraft before letting us board the plane. AHHH, what an experience..... and I got sick upon arrival in KLIA. Luckily, not H1N1.... hahaha...
Till then for the update...

work while travelling, calling it FUN ??
Perhaps study is one thing I could do right now since the economy is getting worse and It will not be getting any better for the next 2 years or so... so what should I study? I have no freaking idea.
Work while travelling, calling it Fun? no way! It is a very stressful job... i dont think I need to go in further details on the job description coz it is NO FUN at all!!! and you wouldn't understand it either... makes "him" don't even bother to boost up my confidence. not helping!
Fun comes when we are on holiday!! NOT WORK! it is totally a different environment and with the responsibilities we carry, we have to be very fit and smart enough. Especially when we land on a foreign country with langguage barrier , likely to be the biggest obstacles! 1 thing which i most afraid of and couldnt avoid. sigh, now.... the country which I hate most and I need to work in early June , CHINA, Shanghai! shieeeettt... Argh!!!!!!!
Happy to be able to make few trips and not happy because I have spent alot of $$$. Sob...
Schedule from Apr 09 :-
Gosh, I freaking hate MANDARIN!
HELP!

Drastic times call for Drastic Measures
Desperate moments .... it all came when the economy crisis hit us plus the H1N1 disease. What is wrong?! Many people lose their jobs.. retrenchment... otherwise, salary reduction!!
Currently, what I am going through is salary reduction, of 20% and unpaid leave. WTF!
Cant stand this nuissance and all of us are struggling very hard in order to survive.
We will not be going extra mile on our daily sales. " what for work so hard with a little earning yet not even able to enjoy a little bit of fun in LIFE! " Wtf again!
These "people" were saying " hold your horses! it will be alright later" , You mean in a years time or 2 or 3? come on ppl!!! Are you overwhelmed with these results and it is not getting any better yet worse?! WAKE UP!
Im not gonna remain joyful in this situation.That is for sure! I Lurve buying things I adore, ie : shoes! BUT * mana ada extra money to do so ? *
But don't worry about the joy ... Am grateful enough that im still alive and kicking!
Should I make a change in my life? perhaps study again?

MY Life isn't perfect
Haven't been updating the blog after a long time... have been real busy with work. After an atomic bomb strike our world economy, it has gone real bad and many of us ( innocent employee ) has been tortured with salary cut and retrenchment. My work place too have been affected with such bad economy crisis. Stress has been continuously adding in my daily life. What more can i do in such bad economy? Being the youngest in the company will be the first victim to retrench. In order to have a monthly income, I got to work harder and to upgrade my sales performance. But faith have been running low...
Why am i having all these nonsense? Arent im supposed to enjoy my uni life right now? Arent im supposed to gain knowledge and make alot of friends back in uni? i really envy all of my friends and those who i have known. they are praticaly enjoying their uni life. Throwing their happy faces in the facebook , some with their graduation ceremony and with flowers during their graduation. I felt soooo..... useless... sad...jealous... why cant i even experience all these? Though i might not be that smart to enter a fancy uni/ college... but i reallly hoped i have the experience to do so..especially to be able to experience of studying abroad. sigh....
After SPM in the yr 07, i dont even dare to think of it... i felt so miserable right now....
I dont mind working at an early age...i dont mind forcing myself to be happy with my work. Pushing myself to work harder and to like my *current* job. i dont think leading tours is my type. I find it very F A K E .... all of us are just desperate for money $$.. so we need to put on a mask to do customer service... and this is my daily routince. working from 9 am until late evening like 7 or 8 ... what a life!!!
After a day of stress , i hope i have a comfort hug from my beloved.... only you can take away my stress after a long day. i long for your outstretched arms welcoming me back home... i have missed so much of you in my life... I cant wait for you to be back ...im longing to share every story through out these yrs..i have so much love to give which have been bottled up inside for a very long time... when will you be back to free me from it? :(
the closer i am to you the happier i am...
Thanks for all the support baby... =) Irregarless in which way...I'm so afraid that I am not a match for you...
I hope this will be the last time im nagging about my life...it isn't perfect at all...
Anyway, Happy Easter day!!

life is hard
I cried today , because i felt that life is hard .... working until late night is not the reason being but after a hard day of work, i had to go home without being 'sayang' by anyone. FEELING LONELY all by myself.
I'm a person who easily get jealous about other ppl, either in their personal life or so on. I envy those couples ...those loving couples.... where they can pour their thoughts or release their stress after a long hard day at work.
Im not gonna complain about money today.... because it will always be NOT enough. Moreover, this roadshow, we only had RM60 for 2 days of work. Plus, no allowance at all for this coming MATTA fair..not even commission... what am i to do... sigh... everything is being cut away. EVERYDAY OVERTIME!!!
Suddenly, im speechless, fed up of my life...

Wonder has anyone got hurt from that. LOL.
There goes my monthly commitments, rental, house bills, credit card bill, phone bill, now another bill is gonna come in.... streamyx bill. I'm really overspending it and dont seem to be able to save a penny. Soon im gonna have to dig my piggy bank's money.... poor thing.

ARGH! i hate these.. I hope everything is gonna be fine and brave enough to step up and say " dear sir,...... "

Get a life!
Humans can never be satisfied with whatever they have. Neither do I…
I hate almost everything around me! My career and so on…
Sometimes, people just wouldn’t appreciate with whatever they have. They will start comparing even with tiny little things. In fact, they are the lucky ones. If you want to compare, please compare with education and the $$$ that were given, and not forgetting…high tech gadgets. Don’t be selfish and ungrateful! You are not the unlucky one because I don’t get any of those.
I studied very hard for my SPM, though I didn’t really get flying colours , I am satisfied with my results. I am disappointed when I was not given the chance to study in a well known college or given the chance to upgrade my knowledge. I gave up and I just took whatever chances I have.. Which is one and only course , tourism…cheapest and the only education which will only be supported. That is all im gonna have , either take it or leave it! I just took it for the sake of completing it… and now, im stuck in travel industry. I don’t even know if this path is the right path. Don’t seem to lead me anywhere.
My mom favor me more because I am independent and able to think… real matured. Moreover, I don’t get any $$ from her. She only chip in sometimes when I don’t have enough money. That also because I am only given RM200 a month during college time. COMPARE to my brother, he gets RM600 a month … with phone bill being paid for! What the heck you want to compare more?! I have a bf living in
I am proud enough to say, im smarter than you! I should be the one getting all those bloody education and not YOU! Please be considerate enough and stop comparing for God sake! I strive in this travel industry with a very low pay, just enough to eat and to survive in this cruel world. Life is unfair… yes it is unfair…
I am proud because I can survive alone in this world without anymore cash flow from parents. One day you will understand how hard it is to earn a living in this society.
You better fucking appreciate with whatever you have now and if you don't you will regret for the rest of your life!
