a day in life (2)

a few things happened to me today to me yesterday. i felt felt damn happy bout it (feeling you get after helping somebody)..not to boast or S.O, but you get this really good feeling, when u do something for a person.

i finshed off my work around 7:30, walk slowly to the bus stand. sat there waiting for the bus, then a malay guy sat next to me went to help a blind person. that 'uncle' wanted to take a cab back to brickfields. so i thought, wow, that malay guy is kind-hearted coz he was willing to help that 'uncle', but after 30 seconds or so, when the bus came and that malay guy actually dump that uncle and left for the bus. before he went he ask to 'finished off his business'. so i was left with the uncle. at first i wasn't sure whether he's a malay or chinese. so i took a glance on his slippers. he was wearing those slippers that mainly chinese would wear. so i talk to him in cantonese. asked where he wanted to go. i told him have a seat first, and i would stopped a taxi for him. after waiting for quite long (coz there's a lot of people were also hailing the taxi) i was like the last one. after all the people left, i raised my hand, the taxi stopped. i told the taxi driver that blind uncle wanted to go to brickfields, and he was willing to take him there. i asked the taxi driver to drive further in fornt of the uncle, i walked toward the uncle, guide him into the taxi and he gave me 50 bucks. (nehh that 50bucks was just an additional stuff to spice up my story, coz i hope that everyone would rush to help special people) and i actually missed 2 busses just for a taxi. but anyway, i'm happy...


in the bus:
normal journey, but i'm damn happy when i think the bus actually scratched a proton perdana's bumper. we were near Bangsar Shopping Centre, when the bus needed to make a turn, but there were a lot of cars blocking the way, so he turned the other way (right) instead. on the other turn, the was that car (the proton perdana was blocking the way). the bus driver had no choice but just gazed through. i could hear the scratching noise below me. hahah...ohh..what a wonderful feeling. so next time, don't ever park your car in place that's not meant for parking ie, road junctions, etc. serves that bugger right...

taxi drivers

i hated certain taxi drivers in kl (i'm not gonna mention the race here), but this certain race actually likes to 'take you for a spin' @ take a longer route to certain destination.
today i finished my work at 10pm, so i decided to take a cab back home. i hailed a cab in front of the mosque in lucky garden, so this driver (born in 1935 - 70 years old) stopped. i told him that i wanted to go to sri sentosa. he nod his head, and i get on the cab.

as we reaching the fly-over next to maybank, he actually turned left and didn't go up the fly-over ( to midvalley). i thought he will go to mid val and turned back to federal highway, and uses jalan gasing to go back to sri sentosa.

this old man, instead, go to brickfields, and go to jalan syed putra and uses a longer route back. i was really pissed off. (and i hated myself for not saying a word) urghhhh!!!!!! this is the second time i 'kena' from them. same race of people. not that i wanted to descriminate them, but their actions really spoke for themselves. this is the ugly side of malaysian cab driver. fortunately, the fare was suprisingly 'cheap'. just only 6bucks++ for that spin around brickfield.

i got this sms from dave today (unfortunately i left my phone at home) and my aunt actually read my sms (my god - i really don't know what to say man) i think she shouldn't do that. suprising the sms was full of 'beautified' words. !@#$%^&* kind of words. relax man, i know 'that something happened in UM with that "protocol" thingy. but there is 'no' need for that. hahah..i remembered last time that you wanted to stop to 'beautify' your words...

but can't blame you lah...ur a LINGUIST..'konon'...cehhh

btw, the cab registration number was HWA 2351 (if not mistaken lah) better beware folks....

what the hell is wrong with these @ss-Os

i got this problem with online gamers. and sometimes they don't who they are dealing with (this is dedicated to all the sex-maniacs and perverts who likes to ask sex-laden questions to fellow online gamers)

2 days ago, one of my 13 year old cousin asked me what is masturbation. i was like damn shocked. i didn't answer that question, just ask 'HER' to check on the dictionary. and i heard her saying that she got it while playing an online game earlier on. there's this game called Gunbound. if you wanna have fun playing games, fine with me. but don't ever include any sex subject during game. if you are so interested in sex and masturbation, stop playing and go watch porn/or just go fuck a hooker, man...

bloody assholes......

other than that, Man Utd won yesterday..
and today it's Race Day.. woohooo!! i'm hoping that McLaren will get a podium finish or something...

China Man (conversation)

yesterday, i was waiting for the bus in front bangsar village. it's my time to go back home. so i sat next to a man, maybe just in his early 30's. so the first 15 minutes, this guy was air drumming, and sang something (which i'm not sure of what the hell he's singing). anyway..i ignored that guy (with his thing)...

later came in the second part. he suddenly asked me something IN MANDARIN!!!!!!!!. and i was like..oh my God...(now i'm in deep shit). it's difficult for me to handle locals to who speak to me in mandarin, but this guy is from China man. and his accent was damn strong, i need him to repeat all his questions coz i just can't understand him. anyway.....i managed to 'speak' to him. (pheww!!) my mandarin is quite ok after all..haha. BUT, half way the conversation, i went like totaly blank. my mind was empty and i couldnt think of anything. since i'm conversing in mandarin, i need to think hard for words. he asked me something bout 'how to go to midvalley' or something like that. that's when i froze, and asked him to let me think for a while. pretty scary and unpleasant experience for me.... Yikes!! i hope i wont meet another Chinese (from China) again..

my condolence to a friend

today, i receives a pretty depressing news from a friend. she told that her boyfriend's dad passed away today. death is not thing that can be deal easily. suddenly your world collapsed in fron of you. and you will wonder that what would you do when u can't see your loved ones anymore. what will life be in the future... there's nothing we can do. hopefully my friend and his family would accept fate. and live life for the ones that's still alive. his father will always watch them from Above....

it's been a week

it was not easy to work in kl. i thought i was ready for it, but frankly said, it was kinda tiring. teh first 3 days, i was so tired coz everyday i reached home around 9:30 to 10pm.

for me, i think i learned a lot in that company. it was cool. one of the designer was willing to help me with the work. it was my first job in an advertising company. it was a good exposure. and everyday, we need to deal with ads, ads, ads, and more ADS....

from my observation; first 3days, there a lot of ads coming in al most all the time. and we don't even have time to finish it off. now i know that we need to finish each ad around an hour. but i sometimes took MORE than that. and the 'media people' was complaining today that our department was slow and bla bla bla... and i was the one that was responsible for the ads. as for the first few days, i was slow and not familiar with the program i'm using. i was just tried to use the first time when i went for the second interview. and my art director asked me to do 2 assignments (the 2nd interview). well, the forth day, things were a bit better, getting used to the software.

and luckily my art director was also willing to teach me a lot things, that i didnt understand.

AND THANK GOD IT'S FRIDAY!! (tomorrow i don't need to work...woohooo)

working days

well, i finally started working in bangsar. meet a lot of new colleague. majority of them are quite cool people, and some are nuts. i'm still new, so i feel a tiny bit like an outkast. it will take some time for me to fit in. there's a lot of department, media, AE (account executive), etc.. can't remember all their names.

first day, went back quite late. walked back from lucky garden back to bangsar putra station. not very far, just 15 mins. just to exercise a bit lah. eventhough not enough but at least i get rid of some sweat and burn some calories. hahah....

there a ot of things to do at work, since the company's doing ad for newspaper, those work can't stop coming in. my god!! u cant rest even for a minute. and there's one thing i don't like bout them (the company's working style), even though 5:30pm, i cango back but they still give hell lot of work. what the hell is wrong man..., my god.

and today is worst, i waited for damn long time for that fucking bus (NO. 30-to Sri Sentosa). waited for more than hour and i never saw the shadow of that damn bus. after more than an hour, i finally 'blow-up', BUT ....i manage to strike up a conversation with a young female (maybe around her 20's, and it's her first day of taking a bus back to USJ). from her accent, she's from sabah or sarawak. chatted for a short while. get a second phone call from my aunt, she offer to fetch me frm taman jaya station, so i took the lrt back to taman jaya. and that time it's already like 10pm ++. everyday only can sleep for +/- 6hours. i don't when i can stand.

now..even when u get job, it can still be stressfull. aiyak....

OK, now i must go back to kuantan to bring some of my stuff here. Clothes, guitar, PS2 (well..maybe not that) etc. that's not the thing i should worry about.

The thing, is i got another interview at USJ. the interviewer seem very much interested. and i'm looking forward towards the interview too. i got this interview a day after i didnt get the phone call that that guy from Murad Hashim. so i send other application. after i arrange the new interview, i got a call from them. and i agreed to work there. salary wise, not much, but quite near my aunts place. that's the good point. i'll think i'll go the the other one at Subang. it's far, and i don't have enough money to even rent for a place to stay (now), and getting there everyday would be hell a lot of trouble and not forgetting the distance too.

HOW????!!!!!!!

if i settle down in subang, jamming would be a bit of problem too. argh....!!!! (no..i won't complain now, life's getting better..why should i complain. hahah)

job! job! job!

woohoo...after all these weeks and weeks of suffering in kl, i managed to get a job in bangsar. my god it's been quite a while since i felt so good. what a wonderful world. whe is beautiful once more. what's better than a dose of happy event that sprung into your life, after weeks and weeks of dissapointment/heartache.

Cheers for me and the band!!!!
'god' + God is watching for me after all.......
