When I just got out of the shower, I realised something. Oh my God, it's August already! And September is just around the corner. Now it's 30th of August... do you know what that means? It's way past 11th of August!!!

What's the big deal about 11th of August? Well, it's the anniversary of my ex and I's boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. I've totally forgotten about it!!! That means I've moved on!!!

Guess Who I Bump Into Today?

One (currently a total of two) of my loyal readers would know her. She used to work in PCCW as well. Ring any bells? ;)

I was getting on the company shuttle bus and at the same time, trying to dial my frigging mobile to my brother. "Kawa!", I heard. A re? Who would call my name in the bus?? I looked around trying to see which pretty chick (droooooooolll) that's calling me. Unfortunately all the pretty chicks (droooooooolll) are either chatting with each other or dozing off. DAMMIT!

"Wei! Li tou ah! (Hey! Over here!)". Oh My God! What's she doing here??! For the record, she's not one of the pretty chicks (droooooooolll) in the bus.

She's on the phone with someone. "Hey, I bump into Kawa. Blahblahblahblah...", she spoke to the phone. Must be her boyfriend (whom we all at PCCW knows *ahem ahem*). The seat beside her is empty. I sat down and wait for her to finish her phone conversation. When she's finished, "What are you doing here??", I asked.

Apparently, the company she's working at errmm what's it called again.. Sa.. err... Sawhateveritscalled has a deal with ours. They are to serve our company's internal calls/support. Funny how our company provides support for others and another company is providing support to us. Some sort of vicious cycle.

She just went to Singapore for a 5 day crash course and right now she's at my work place. And, apparently she's also taking the company shuttle bus to go to KL Sentral station. Guess we will be bumping into each other alot.

First thing she asked about me:

Friend: "How's your girlfriend?"
Me: "Wei, we broke up already mah."
Friend: "Yah Meh!? You and your girlfriend broke up!? Since when?"
Me: "It was almost a year (or maybe a year and a half) ago, when we had our gathering. Neh... that time when we watched The Medalion (bblllaarrgggh!) with the others? We just broke up that time."
Friend: "Oh! You and your girlfriend broke up quite a while ago."
Me: "Yup."
Friend: "So, seriously... you and your girlfriend broke up already?"
Me: "There are alot of pretty chicks in this bus. I appreciate that whenever you say the words 'you', 'girlfriend' and 'broke up' reaally loud. And you keep repeating them in the same volume." *thumbs up!*
Friend: "*giggles!* You haven't changed a bit!"
Me: *rolls eyes*

After that, we talked about work, her boyfriend, her boyfriend's work...

So, when the bus reached KL Sentral station, we parted ways. I had to go take the LRT and she walked to God knows where. Probably meeting up with her boyfriend.

Hope this is not some kind of omen. ;P

Happy Birthday Malaysia!!

Happy 47th.

I Liiiiiiive!!

I can't believe I made it! WooHoo!! According to my manager, I did 60 cases alone. But compared to other usual Mondays, 60 isn't a lot. Anyway, here's the e-mail that she sent me at the end of the day:

Hi Kawa,
You have done a tremendous job today by handling over 60 cases alone. I am giving you 3 hours of FTO for today which is equivalent to 1/2 day. You may use them anytime within the month but you need to inform your ah cheh in advance.
Keep up the good work!
Ah Cheh, pls take note of the half day FTO for Kawa.
Best regards,
Your Tai Kah Cheh.

Hahah, it got to my head a bit. No wonder it's heavier now. Though I bet she kept a draft copy for such situation and just change/add in the name. It could easily be "Hi Billy" or "Hi Steve".

Sorry I have to censored the names in order to protect the private lives of the innocent (Hey, I'm not innocent!). Over here, we usually refer to our manager as "Tai Ka Cheh" and our team lead as "Ah Cheh". Privately of course. For those who are not well versed in Cantonese, Tai Kah Cheh means "Big Sister" and Ah Cheh means "Sister". If you are wondering what's FTO, it's Full Time Off. Not F*** Til Out-cold.

Someone had to rain on my parade. Off office hours, while I was head-banging to Live in Baghdad by Yoko Kannon (She's a genius!) and The Seatbelts, the phone rang. Hey! It's the extension line that's blinking, not the main line. Must be someone from on-site calling me to congratulate me, "You da Man!" (See, told you it got to my head).

It's that hot Indian chick. "Oh my God, Kawa! Please help me check this case... I've closed it but it still showed up in the evening report!". "Hold on to your panties Calm down, let me check the case...", I told her. I thought she closed the case right after when the evening report was generated. That's why it would still show up. Boy, was I wrong.

The case's deadline was at 2:15 p.m. She solved it at around 1:00 p.m. but forgot to change it to "resolve" to close it. And what time was it that she called? 6:15 p.m. -_-' . "Can I still close it?", she asked. I replied, "You have to any how."

A case missed its deadline on my watch. Bagged and tagged, Kawa.

It's Official.

Today is the Longest Day of My Life. But two friends on MSN manage to make the time easier for me. Thanks all!

Oh, I forgot. There were two trailers shown when watching AVP. Besides Constantine, they've also shown Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story. Man, this is some serious funny shit. Ben Stiller is still the man! Too bad Owen Wilson is not in it.

Here's a link to the official site: www.dodgeballmovie.com

Tomorrow: The Longest Day of my life?

That still remains the question. Currently holding the title The Longest Day of my life is when I first joined PCCW. We were having training from some guy from Hong Kong. He was teaching us on how to help out the customers. But because of his slang, I couldn't understand a word he says and spent the whole day dozing off and nodding. Damn, that sure sucked.

Why tomorrow might beat the title from that day? You see, I will be working alone. There are 3 of us. Team lead's on leave, and the other is on leave. Team lead had already applied for leave very early... the other knew the leave wouldn't be approved, decided that he had forgotten that 30th of August is not a public holiday. To top that off, he didn't get a flight back here from Langkawi. The bastard. It'll be the first day me working alone.

Bright side of things? Perhaps tomorrow is a good day to show the S.O.Bs my mettle. Perhaps then when a new deal comes in, I would be considered for the Team Lead position for that account. One can only hope. No?

Enough cussing. Just saw AVP (Alien Vs Predator) today with a bunch of Ragnarok Online friends. The movie was ok. Remember Resident Evil (RE) that is also directed by Paul W.S. Anderson? The whole movie felt like RE. Cheap scares, not enough blood and gore, not enough AVP fights, fights not cool enough, alot of Preds posing around.... It's an "okay" movie lah.

Felt like a geek that I had to explain to my friends about the whole Egg-Face Hugger-Chest Burster-Xenomorph cycle of an Alien.

Before the movie starts, they showed Constantine movie trailer. Oh my God, how they butchered that cool as Hell (if you think Hell is cool) John Constantine: Hellblazer comic book. Saw some scenes with Keanu holding some sort of gun. John Constantine doesn't need a gun! He uses some really dangerous (the type that would usually come back and bite him in the ass) magik against whatever from Hell and outsmarts the Devil. This movie is starting to look like bollocks! But I am still curious about it. It's supposely based on the Dangerous Habits arc, which in the comic totally rocks. Would I still watch it... hmmm.. yeah, maybe. If they flash a boob or two, better the chances. LOL!

Okay-lah, gotta go prepare for tomorrow: sleep.

In case of emergency, please press the panic button.

Today, after work. While taking the LRT to meet a friend for dinner, some guy was leaning against where the intercom button is. He looked sleepy, leaning back and forth he goes.

When reached a certain station, he got off and I noticed something. The button is flashing!! He must have accidentally pressed it when leaning on it. You can hear the speakers buzzing in a very low hum. It's on! Let's see the instructions shall we: 1) In case of emergency, please press the red button. 2) When the red light is flashing, please wait for the operator's instruction. 3) Speak through the panel.

Okay, I know the instruction's not exactly like how I've written, but you get the gist of it. Anyway, back to the story... someone spoke through it: "Helo, ada apa-apa hal tak? Helo?". As no one answered, it went dead.

I was wondering, what if I screamed: "HEEEEEELLLPPP!!! OH MY GOD!! OH MY GOD!!! WE ARE DYING HERE.. AIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!"

That would really be fun-nee.

There are alot of chicks around my working area.

Hot chicks. Cute chicks. Pretty chicks. For a moment, life is good. Oh Kawa, you dog you.

Why, oh why?

Why do we fall for the wrong person? Wrong person as in: one who treats you like shit, attached, married (GASP!), your sister/brother (HAHAHAHA! Just kidding ok?).

Is it because of the thrill of Forbidden Love? Wanting for something that you can't have? Or simply, that person is charming?

Like I've said to a good friend of mine, and I quote myself "Maybe it's the wrong time... maybe it's the wrong life. Or, maybe it's just not meant to be."

What would you do if you have fallen? Would you've stayed by his/her side? Wait for them?

There are worst things than falling for the wrong person. Like, someone whom you meant the world to asks you to go eat shit and die.

The Itchy and Scratchy Show

Here goes the so called “Unofficial” first blog. It was written on 09/08/2004:

Ahhh… allergies. Who's got em, who don't? At around 5 a.m. in the morning, it started to itch all over. So itchy that I thought insects are biting me by the swarm. Since I am not a good judge of small bumps all over my body, I woke my parents up to see what the Hades is all about the itchiness. My mom starts nagging "It's your room, I tell you!! Told you to blah blah this blah blah that...". My dad then says it's "Fung Mok" (canto). "Fung Mok" what the fug is that? According to him, seems like my allergy’s starting to act up again.

Now, I dunno what I am allergic to. The last time I had an allergic reaction was way back in high school. It got so bad that even after visitting the clinic and taking meds, it won't go away. I had to go to the SJMC in the wee hours of the morning at the ER to get an injection. Oh, DON'T get me started on the injection...

Anyway, back to the present. After the morning rituals, my parents drove me to the nearest 24 hours clinic. Hmm... the grill door's close, no patients waiting.. Looks like nobody's in. I pressed the bell "ZZZAAAPPP!! ZZZAAAPPP!!".. well there wasn't a sound, but I thought it might sounded like that *scratch scratch*. Ringing the doorbell twice summoned the "nurse". She walked out, with a "Who dares disturbed my slumber?!" look on her face and opened the door. After registering, she asked me to wait a while as the doctor is taking his bath. What?! Taking his bath??! Did he decided to take his bath when I came or was he taking his bath?! What if there's an emergency?? My thoughts exactly.

After 30 minutes of walking up and down, scratching here and there, the nurse opened the consultation room and says, "He's ready". I let the doc checked and he says its definitely allergy. He asked me what I’ve eaten and yada yada yada. Now, let's see what the doc decided for me to take: "Itchy: 3 times per day", "Allergy: 3 times a day. Warning: Do not operate heavy machinery after consumption", some cream and oh, MC!! Yaa*scratch scratch*aay!! Better send SMS to C and G (my team lead and colleague) that I won't be able to make it today. When I got back, I called C just in case.

Oh I'm sure, when I got back to work tomorrow, G would say "lei jau hou lah" to me... LOL. Well, today's MC not that fun. The meds the doc gave were really drowsy. I just sleep through the whole day. So much for getting a free day off. BAH! ;P

I Have A Blog, And It's Pink!

Finally got my @$$ up to register a blog spot. Annnd, I'm man enough to have it in pink. Bwahahahahaha!

Ahh, the official first post. Actually, i've written one sometime around last week. But i've not register a spot and post it yet. Well, I guess it would be the "unofficial" first post.

So, do we really need another blogspot you ask? Well, its mine... basically i'll just whine, rant and rave here. Stay tune, you fellow kepoh-ji!
