Fast forward 3 weeks.

Listening to: Clazziquai Project - Fiesta (Daishi Dance remix)
Feeling: Melancholic

No matter how I look at thing
s it is still depressing. How should we handle things? Can I make it for my Mecca? What is the situation now? It's a blank canvas of confusion.

Pu
shing the depression to the back of my mind (in some cultures, this is often labeled as 'running away from reality') I had some fun over the past three weeks...


We went white water rafting in Gopeng. I promi
se you this is the best anger management/stress therapy anyone can get. I screamed my heart out and came home as tired as a dog. Had a great night's sleep.

But let me warn you that water might be splashed around. It was fun though me and Fun went with a bunch of people we don't know except for Jae Han. Woots!

I al
so went for the Complete 5 BMW drive two weeks back.

We drove the X5 and the 5 series, naturally.

Drove on beautiful roads I never knew existed.

Witnessed the beauty of nature from air.

Roughed it out at the Four seasons Langkawi.

Magnificently showered like a queen in the outdoor bath in the room (in the Four seasons)

Did a Paris and Nicole (again) and enjoyed life on a mega yacht.

Had a splashing time on the banana boat.

Watching the beautiful sun set while I enjoyed my dinner.

Cam-whored with my sister one weekend.

Yeap. My life in 3
short weeks. More soon!

"Go trip on your power!"

Listening to: Howie Day - Collide
Feeling: Kinda pissed off and tired


I've just gotten back home from a full day of running around; from central KL to KLCC to MidValley to Bangsar to One Utama. I have a shoot tomorrow and I am stressed out and tired.

Working in a magazine is a funny thing. You are at the mercy of your boss in the office. During events and media trips, we(the media) are treated like demi gods. (In a way laaaa) When you're out loaning... you're at the mercy of the shop salesperson. We are generally nice to the sales people and they are usually nice to us, though some might need some warming up to. I have to be honest here; fake or not, it makes my job MUUUCHHH more easier.

I've gotten my fair share of shitty sales peeps but oh well I guess everyone's got their bad days. I would usually stay civil and be polite. After all, I am coming back to their shops to return and collect more stuff in the future anyway...

So today was just another boring collection day driving from one place to the other... Until my last stop. I was supposed to get some items from a well known departmental store. Collecting from a departmental store is totally different from the usual collections. I have to get a pass from the security guard. Usually not a big thing but today, the lady in charge was in a foul mood.

Security Guard Lady: Kenapa you datang dari depan? Lain kali you datang dari belakangla
Why did you come from the front? Next time come in from the back (She meant the docking bay

Me: Tapi saya selalu datang dari depan. Saya bukan supplier.
But I've always came in from the front from the store front. I am not a supplier

SGL: Ini beg besar. Apa dalam beg itu? Lain kali jangan bawa beg besar-besar, bawa yang kecil punya
This bag is big. What's in the bag? Next time don't bring such a big bag. Bring something smaller

Me: *Feeling temperature rising* Saya darimagazine dan saya datang untuk pinjam barang untuk shoot. Saya bukan supplier. Kalau saya nak masuk dari depan, saya masuk dari depan. Kalau saya nak bawa beg besar, saya boleh bawa beg besar. (snatching my pass and walking away)
I'm from a magazine and I'm here to loan some products for a shoot. I am not a supplier. If I wanted to come in from the front, I come in from the front and if I want to bring a big bag, I will bring a big bag.


OhHhHhHh, I was damn pissed off!!!!! I was nice to her when I asked for the pass but why was she being such a bitch and started scolding me? Before I can even explain that I am not a bloody supplier therefore I do not need to come in from the docking bay, she had already assumed that I was one.

Ex-Hitler once told me that people with the least power loves exercising what little power they have because it makes them feel powerful. As I was going around collecting the items that I wanted, I felt bad for the lady and was actually feeling bad for blowing up at the lady.

She was riding on her power...

And I tripped on mine... Guess we're even then.

P/S: She was polite to me as I was returning the pass to her because one of the guys who were helping me with the paperwork actually went over and told her off as I went back into the office and told the guy about the incident. I have to admit I was being kinda bitchy... Erk.. that guy didn't deserve it... Now I feel bad x2. :(

Oh JOY~

I so feel like jumping up and down~ Run round and hug everyone tightly... It's funny how just ONE phonecall can make you seem to see the light at the end of the tunnel!

I've finally got an answer for the job that I was hoping to get and the answer was YES! And I didn't even need to go for the interview... :p

Was in One Utama at that time and I totally didn't expect it to be so sudden... The guy was like 'Can you start on Monday?' I was like 'Yeah!!' Was with Nicholle at that time and I guess she knew what happened by the look on my face!!! So.. hahha, to reward myself.. I bought the cute hairband that I thought was so cute but was abit pricey.. Wahey.. a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do~ Yeah.. which is to reward herself when something good happens!!!!!

:) Feel like running bout and jumping up and down!!!!
