tOm@kO's life ~*_*~

based on our observation of the construction status of our condo.. we notice that the structural framework of our parcel has been completed and the developer went on with level 14.

so i was wondering when the developer will send their second bill.
so.. by end of the month the second bill came.
so.. about one year from the day we placed our deposit for the house booking and down payment.
the developer already collected like 10% + 10% and now another 15% of the money for the house.
consider quite fast already rite?
construction in high speed in order for us to save some interest.
but in this low FD income era...
maybe we should seek for negotiation to borrow money from our parents and pay them back with the interest we are suppose to pay the bank
i think paying our own parents is better compared the paying the licensed leech?

那 一扇車門
關出 我們的裂痕
一聲就震斷了回頭的路程

愛 無法均分
以後 就留給你們
也許用傷害結束 愛才更動人

容忍的人其實並不笨
只是寧可對自己殘忍
既然愛不能恆溫
祝福就給你下一個人

你是好人 也是個壞人
對我坦承 只為了朝他狂奔
不能放任 所以放了
這點痛我還能忍

我是好人 也是個壞人
分得夠狠 你才有藉口轉身
寧願愛 一點不剩
也不忍 看戀人愛成路人

三個人從不對等
總有個人必須犧牲
那永恆 就等他帶你完成

dedicating this song to my friend who is wondering why her bf choose to be a 壞人?
maybe it just bcos just like what the song say he is:-

我是好人 也是個壞人
分得夠狠 你才有藉口轉身
寧願愛 一點不剩
也不忍 看戀人愛成路人
hope he and she can finally come to their conclusion...
happily eva after together or seperate.

yes.. i think the government should increase the toll..
just like what we do… we increase our client’s fee..
but the problem is.. it is the right time to increase?

we are depending on each other to survive..
just like the people of this country is depending on the government to help them to revive the economy.
and the government is depending on the people’s support for the to rule out their decision smoothly.

so what’s next…
PM says.. to reconsider not to increase the toll. (which by end of the day the decision was out to defer the toll hike till end of the year)
so.. we will wait and see what the government wants to do :)

so we would be grateful cos our government is good enough to compensate the losses of the toll concessionaire operator.
but i think this is just temporary measure...
long term measure..
i think should be.. ai..
just leave it to the government to think about it

the following was adapted from the newspaper website:-

The toll rates for five highways will be increased beginning Mar 1, says works Minister Datuk Mohamad Zin Mohamed today.

They are the North South Highway, Sprint, Ampang elevated highway (Akleh), Sungai Besi and New Pantai Expressway.
Toll rates for PLUS highways will go up 0.68 sen per km.
The increase for Federal Highway Route 2 linking Batu 3, Shah Alam to Sungai Rasau, Klang and the North South Expressway will be 14.28 sen per km from 13.60 sen per km.
This change does not cover Bukit Kayu Hitam, Tambak Johor and Bangunan Sultan Iskandar.
Toll rates for Sprint Highway (Kerinchi Link and Damansara Link), Ampang Kuala Lumpur Elevated Highway (AKLEH), Sg Besi Highway (Besraya), and New Pantai Expressway (NPE) will see an increase between 10 sen and 50 sen.
For Sprint highway, the increase is 50 sen at Pantai toll plaza and 30 sen for Damansara toll plaza, AKLEH will be increased by 50 sen, Besraya by 10 sen and NPE by 40 sen.

so… wat’s the moral of the news?
what can 30-50 sen buy you? nothing much rite?
so it’s not material to us…
but what can 30sen X 2 ways X 5 days = one plate of cheap lunch?
i know… i can get two pack of nasi lemak at natural…

so.. wat’s next to increase?
or we should take over all the toll company and ask them to cut on toll collection.

some research was done to check on the people's reaction..
most of them object..
why.. at this difficult time...
isn't the government is suppose to help it's ppl at difficult time???
anyway.. the country's money still come from the country's people...
so why not use it on the people?
so.. what our new finance minister have to offer in his new 'saving' malaysia package?
we will wait and see

when i came out from the cinema..
and walking half way..
put my hand inside my pocket..
and i jus realised that my pocket seems to be empty.
yeah the cover for my phone is inside my pocket...
but...
where is my phone?
shit... i droped it....
but where?
so faster rush back to my seat in the cinema where i remember i last saw my phone..
and i was lucky enough to have found my phone under the seat where i sit...

so it was a mere scare to me 虚惊一场
i reli reli thank god that i realised that i have droped my phone and managed to take it back...
cos the phone was turn on silience and it would be diffult for me to get back my phone :P

we went to watch tom cruise and brad pit's latest movie on cinema...
if you ask which is better...
i would say... brad pit is more leng zai..
not quite answering the question rite?

but the point i can say is there are more people watching benjamin as compared to valkery
and there are people who snoore when watching valkery.
and benjamin is just too long and when you came out of the cinema it's about 3 hours later?

so... my pers0onal opinion...
i like benjamin better
but it's yet the best movie i've watch thus far this year..
but i'm waiting for transformer by mid of this year.
hoping it would not let me down.....

the bank negara is slashing down the overnight policy rate…

and so goes the fixed deposit rate..

i still remember mid of last year when i went to the P bank and the interest rate for the FD if you make placement for one year you would be able to get a return of 3.7% per annum…

and now.. you would only be able to get 2.5% or less.

i wonder… should i continue to place my money in FD or… invest my money elsewhere? but where to invest?

so do you have any ideas?

Do you feel your hand numb sometimes..

do you feel that you have not enough breath even you did a simple exercise for walking for some distance?

These are symptoms that your blood circulation system might have a Malaysia boleh toll system build up within which cause slow down or even blockage…

so… you gotta do regular exercise…

and also regular checkup on your body.

to ensure there are no such toll being set up within your blood circulation system.
''
my uncle just did an agreement with the Malaysia Boleh toll system within his blood circulation system to build an extension of four super highway (by passed they called it).

now he is on his way recovering back from his operation and.. he was aging in high speed also…

hope he will get better by the time he wanted to go to OZ soon..

and thank god that he is lucky enough to tare down the toll before the blood circulation system starts to mogok

and the moral of the story is to take care of your body regardless of your age and sex and dun think you are healty and young... cos you don't reli know whether you are sick untll you get a confirmation from the doc

now i'm chasing another taiwan 偶像剧 named 败犬女王
so far have watched 6 episode...
besides the 5th episode which i think it's only so so....
others are great..
in terms of the story line and the 台词 和 对白

下次要記住，不管妳多寂寞，都不要花錢買男人……因為，妳值得被真心對待。
next time remember no matter how lonely you are do not spend money to get a man.. because you are worth to be treated with true love

wow sounds how touching for a gal :)

妳當然是公主，每一個女孩都是，總會有碰到她們專屬王子的那一天

妳是不是第一根本沒關係，重要的是妳是獨一無二的

痛要說 別人就會對你溫柔一點

如果對的人已經在妳的身邊了， 妳一定要好好把握 ，用心感受一下， 就會知道他是不是那個人

an idol movie which is so nice..
so i decided to continue to chase on...
and... it's enjoyable cos the whole tv series has a lot of song from fish's album...
i tot it's a tv series for fish's latest album..

you ask whether the current economy is bad...
yes it is bad..

but.. in this difficult time...
if you wanna start a new business..
which group of people to target and to earn their money...
which group of people are those who are most willing to spend their money even in this bad economy time.

is it the elderly?
nah... they are too old and too calculative to earn their money yeah in a way.

is it those family type of people?
nah... family type of people need to save for their children's education and stuff

is it those single working people?
nah.. working people will feel the pain of spending the money that they earn with their sweat and blood.

which group of people is willing to pay??
the answer is...
teenager...
above 12 and below 18...
yeah.. they do not know the sweat and pain that you have to go through to earn money to pay for all the expenses
they might have parents to care about them enough to pay for whatever they want to
they never go through economy crisis where they need to budget on everything
and i wonder whether they notice that economy crisis is here.
and whether they realised the crisis is worst than the 1997 crisis..

yeah.. so.. if you want to start a new business..
and you should really focus on a teenage group :)

好久没有去紫藤了
今天心血来潮，想旧地重游，因为我在想你吧！

记得和你第一次和你去紫藤的时候吧
叫了你推荐给我的紫玫瑰。
也许我们也应该一起坐下来聊天吧。

可是我还是觉得我们的生活圈子已经很不同了
很多的事情过去了已经不能回头啦！
只好祝你幸福
愿彼此都平安喜乐！

went to purple cane tea house drink tea wit joo...
have not been there for long long time
i think since we graduate from college
we are busy with our work and stuff
and we rarely visit it again during weekend..
normally we go to shopping centre and other places.
but i do really like the feeling enjoying tea and sitting down together with some snack.

so today mei siang and li siew wanted to go kl to check out the IRC courses offered by various college for ACCA this sitting and the price...
so after that we decided to spare some time to go to the tea house
cos we still have some time to spare before going to siew heoh house's warming...

everything there is still the same.
relax, quiet and romantic??
until...
a bunch of teenage (yeah a big bunch) came and play music...
play uno... and.. made a lot of loud noise..
ah... when will we have peaceful time???
but i jus feel it is not so nice that you go to a place which is quite and your group alone make so so many loud loud noise and disturb other's peaceful weekend.

when my alarm rang 5.00 am this morning i was wondering why it was ring as today is Saturday.
haha...
then it keep on ringing and ringing...
and then my dad came to knock the door.

ah... i suddenly realised today was only friday...
GOD why i got the impression that today is Friday...
TGIF?
i think i must be too tired work...
so..
i should give myself less pressure and relax a bit not so tension.

after many many years of exam and stuff.
my fren K Tan finally passed his exam...
and also my office new friend K Yong also passed her exam and will get her salary adjusted soon.
it's real cool and delighted when people passed their exam..
it's a good case...
cos dragging for too long isn't any good for one's career and one's health
why? career wise others might look at you like one level below cos you have not passed your exam and you have to take the pressure of not passing the exam everytime you attend the exam for each sitting.

Caroline say why there is no photo of me... of course first of all i wanna take photo of the nice nice view in Melaka and think that I take the best picture with my camera... :P
很自大和臭屁吧!

my fren has tis idea about getting married on V Day...
and i think it would b great if u proposed on V Day and get married on the same day too...
so u get a great celebration package...
V day... Proposal day... Marriage day...
and you would not forget your wedding anniversary cos every1 (i.e. news paper, TV, Radio...) would keep reminding you.. V day coming V Day coming...

but i wonder would the GF say yes... hahaha...

Anyway...
today is our 6 years and 10 months anniversary.
so... is going to be the 7th year..
and it's a test for us before we move forward to another level..

Many ask me when i'm getting married...
i would say probably not this year... Maybe next and Maybe the year after that.
I have nothing in mind yet...
But will let my friends know in advance ;)

作词:陈没 作曲:伍冠谚 编曲。陈建骐

时光是琥珀 泪一滴滴被反锁
情书再不朽 也磨成沙漏
青春的上游 白云飞走苍狗与海鸥
闪过的念头 潺潺的溜走

命运好幽默 让爱的人都沉默
一整个宇宙 换一颗红豆
回忆如困兽 寂寞太久而渐渐温柔
放开了拳头 反而更自由

慢动作 缱绻胶卷 重播默片 定格一瞬间
我们在 告别的演唱会 说好不再见

你写给我 我的第一首歌
你和我 十指紧扣 默写前奏
可是那然后呢
还好我有 我这一首情歌
轻轻的 轻轻哼着 哭着笑着
我的 天长地久

命运好幽默 让爱的人都沉默
一整个宇宙 换一颗红豆
回忆如困兽 寂寞太久而渐渐温柔
放开了拳头 反而更自由

长镜头 越拉越远 越来越远 事隔好几年
我们在 怀念的演唱会 礼貌的吻别

你写给我 我的第一首歌
你和我 十指紧扣 默写前奏
可是那然后呢
还好我有 我这一首情歌
轻轻的 轻轻哼着 哭着笑着
我的 天长地久

陪我唱歌 清唱你的情歌

i like this song...
a bit simple..
meaningful
sounds 细水长流
something pretty simple
something nothing too difficult..

my friend blog about OT..
why people do OT while others don't need to do so?
sometimes i wonder why.. when i always OT last time.

agreed with my friend that auditor need to OT in order to meet their deadline
what about tax agent?
does tax agent reli need to OT?

i think i got the answer.
yeah we need to OT as well.

mainly due to the following reasons:-

client's call...

taking too many call from client during office hours. but we cant tell client we have no time to entertain you since we are in the service industry. and whether the time and time cost that we spend to entertain the client is chargeable or not is another big question mark.

staff inefficiency...

sometimes we work and work and work and we might consider whether we should take a break. then things start to slow down. sometimes is the fear of doing something which is new to yourself and you are not familiar with it. but if you know the thing is urgent, would you have the motivation in speeding up your work?

delayed in receiving information from client...

sometimes client know they need to furnish you with the information soonest possible in order to speed up the progress of getting the thing done. yet they take their own sweet sweet time to complete the information. and sometimes they know the things that you need is urgent, but yet they can still go on leave or go back early. i do not understand why such things would happen. when they give you the information at the eleventh hour they would expect you to finished the job with the short period of time. cos you are the expert and you are being paid for having to rush the very very last minute cos we (here refers to the client) paid for it.

motivation to speed up the work....

when there are no praise or compliment from people on the top for the hard work or good work that you have done.. you would feel demotivated and feel not to move forward anymore... and laid back take your own sweet time to complete your work... but job satisfaction will sometimes result you to move forward faster... like close relationship with client, client bonding, group bonding and etc...

so in order to avoid OT...
we need to plan in advance...
review our plan as and when we implement it
change our plan as we are approaching dead end
always have plan B and C even D and E if need be
last but not least OT with a purpose.. maybe to learn more so to increase your marketability in the future

sometimes i wonder whether the hard work that you OT would pay u good... you will know it when your company promote you and it will show in your increment adn also bonus...

having a walk at the historical city...
just like having a walk in penang..
just that Melaka seems to be more historical as compared to penang
and preservation job is much much more better..









the day is quite hot..
initially tot it was quite windy day
so we din bring our umbrella..
so we walk walk walk and walk...











finally went to dataran pahlahwan...

如果我說 愛我沒有如果
錯過就過 你是不是會難過
若如果拿來當藉口
那爱是不是有一點弱

如果我說 愛我沒有如果
真的愛我 就放手一搏

有个人說
世界上最遙遠的距離不是生與死
而是我就站在你面前 你卻不知道我愛你

我常說
如果人類連愛一個人都被自己綁住
那世界末日已來到
不需要等到地球毀滅掉的那天

如果我說 愛我沒有如果
錯過就過 你是不是會難過

如果 如果 如果 如果 如果
最後變成路過 我也不能接受
錯過 錯過 錯過 錯過 錯過
我比你更難過 不會一錯再錯

我常說
如果人類連愛一個人都被自己綁住
那世界末日已來到
不需要等到地球毀滅掉的那天

別怕太快樂(別怕太快樂)
別怕失去我~~

如果我說 愛我沒有如果
錯過就過 你是不是會難過
若如果拿來當藉口
那是不是有一點弱
如果我說 愛我沒有如果
真的愛我 就放手一搏
還想什麼 還怕什麼
快牽起我的手

i used to work at the office situated at Level 12 in my office.

Bcos of the promotion i have to move to Level 15 and my new place.

Yesterday when i was going down the lift from Level 16, my habitual reflex was to press level 12 to go back to my work station.
and I did so… and when i realised it was too late…

so.. i have to go all the way down to level 1 and up to level 15 again…

blur blur me and kasian me waisting time “游 lift 河”

too blur me gotta improved la…

so... to avoid this.. from 15 to 16 or either way...
i should take the stairs and some exercise
and lift to 12 floor

picture means a thousand words, to comment on it later :P
