Randoms: Second week of September..

-----------------------------------------------
Second week of September is equally as demanding as the first week. Damn. I'm soo sleepy at this very moment, rushing for a presentation material due on Friday and what the heck am I doing here.. fucking PROCRASTINATING!!

God, save the queen ME!!
-----------------------------------------------

Here's one good pic to sum up the week:

"Du lan..."

Basically damn busy with work. Start my day with work, then evening trainings/meetings, at night in front of my laptop compiling materials..

"Even my laptop feels that he's overworked.."

At this very moment, I'm crunching numbers, generating profiles and recording them..

"@_@.. My eyes!!"

What's worse, I've been patronizing various pharmacies lately to get the most effective cough syrup.. and guess what.. I've a collection..

"There's another 2 bottles in the kitchen.. *cough.. *cough.."

So to start off..

"Sighs..."

Monday: 8th Sept 08

Was invited to IBS to give a career talk. It was okay, except the fact that I had lack of sleep prior to the day due to preparations. Pics will be available soon.


Tuesday: 9th Sept 08

Company organized a Business Opportunity Presentation for recruitment of new agents/wealth planners. Was involved in setting up the systems around so had a rough time.

Here are the pics:

"Fair attendance.. all concentrating on the talk.."

"Ah Chan, our Emcee.. going to say: You're Fired! (damn pro pose..)"


Wednesday: 10th Sept 2008

Time to sweat it out. The guys arranged for a Futsal session in the Miri Indoor Stadium. Started off at 8 pm till 11 pm!! After a long beginning of the week, I'm half dead after this session.

Here's the pic OF THE DAY:

"Andy with his Stupendous Man pose.."


Thursday: 11th Sept 2008

Its basically training time again. This time on new products. I dunno how many times i yawned, but I bet the one next to me yawned more times than I did. Secretly took a few snaps during the session:

"Scribbling notes and stuffs like that. The small head in the middle = lecturer.."

"This is a hit: Ruba with his very own Ferari school bag and a Batman pencil case. Salute.."


Friday: 12th Sept 2008

I had a class at night about activities recording. And due to the strict regulations of the class I'm not allowed to access my phone. So no pics taken..

Anyway..

I took a snap outside my office as there are some peeps making damn annoying noises, they're adding an emergency lagger to the side of our office for the 3rd floor dwellers.. which will be US..

"Notice the bottom left corner, the ladder lying on the parking lot.."

Despite being stressed out during the week, I've gone to release some of it by getting me-self several pet tortoises. My dad had just DIYed a small fountain outside our front-yard and nothing has been living in it until the tortoise gang came around.

They're damn hyperactive man. Sayings about tortoises are slow animals are definitely untrue here. Whenever I try to take a glance they'd jump into the waters. If left undisturbed, they'd climb up on the wooden formations we've made for them and bask under the glorious sun, as though they've conquered their very own 'mini-Everest'..

"Got'cha.. This fella's halfway sleeping while clinging on the edge of the woods.."


Saturday: 13th Sept 2008

Working half day today, but being jaded after a hard long week, I've decided to take things slow, made a few contacts with clients etc.

And guess what.. my step sis came back to Miri for several days for a break, and managed to catch up with her just before she took off to KL again.

"Same old mui-mui.. hah.."

Of course, night activities resumes as usual, after the meeting we went over to lim teh at a Malay stall near Ming's Cafe..

"Ka ni nah.. Manure lost to Liberboo.. damn dulan.."

Then things didn't turn out any better when I'm home.. I was practically making wan-tons on my bed-side..

"Unker! Want to eat my wan-tan? RM 2 only.. cheap cheap.. or you wan sui-gao??"

Fast forward a few days, as I was quite sick..


Wednesday: 17th Sept 2008

Tomorrow is Huat's birthday, the guys wanna gather up for celebration. Huat treated to a round of Secret Recipie. Heck, I know he's on our mercy for that session. You should've seen his expression when we were holding the menu.. lol..

Here are the pics:

"Home.. and gone again..."

"Guys arrived at Secret Recipie.. Oh, forgot to take a snap at Huat's face.. LOL"

"The cakes came in waves.. and each lasted for less than 15 mins.. lol.."

"The drinks.. nice colours.. the tea is mine.. cannot drink cold.. bleh.."

"Cakes again... :P~"

"Secret Recipie... Nice advertorial shot.."

"Another promotional shot.. Ignore Kee Wee's head, not exactly good for promo.."

"Alan harrassing Lim's DSLR.."

"Loke still concentrating on his main course.. Bate completes and smiles with satisfaction.."

"But.. Bate is back to action again!"

"Alan trying to snap some abstract shots from the crumbs of the cakes.. Arte-de-la-crumbs perhaps?"

Anyway, it's a fair session there.. and we're kind enough not to take a chunk out of Huat's wallet.

So, thanks Huat for the meal and Happy Birthday!!

And too bad the boss of Secret Recipie didn't manage to find the birthday song.. or else I think this will be the last time Huat goes there..

Okay, that's all for now.. I'm going to crash...

+_+ ~ Goodnight!

Jason Mraz - I'm Yours

------------------------------------------------
Been having a tough week, and found this song. Damn it's relaxing. So let me dedicate this song to all of you who are stressed out: time to chill and relax!
------------------------------------------------

Jason Mraz - I'm Yours

Well-a you done done me
And you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks and now I'm trying to get back

Before the cool done run out I'll be giving it my bestest
And nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some
But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours

Mmmmhmmm-Mmmmhhmmm, Mmmmmhmmm
(Heeeeey heeeey)

Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
I look into your heart and you'll find love love love love

Listen to the music of the moment, people dance and sing
We're just one big family
And it's our God-forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved loved

So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm sure
There's no need to complicate, our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours

(Scatting)
Do you want to come on?
Scooch on over closer dear, I'll whisper in your ear
Wo-ooo-o-oh who-oo-o-o-oh
Oh yes love, love love love love love
Love you love, love you love

I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and I laughed

I guess what I be saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do, our name is our virtue

But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours

Open up your mind and see like me
(I won't hesitate)
Open up your plans and damn you're free
(No more, no more)
I look into your heart and you'll find that the sky is yours
(It cannot wait, I'm sure)

So please don't, (please don't, please don't)
There's no need
(There's no need to complicate)
There's no need to complicate
(Our time is short)
'Cause our time is short
(This is our fate)
This is oh, this is oh, this is our fate
I'm yo-o-o-o-ooo-ours
Ahhh


Here's the video:

Randoms: First week of September..

------------------------------------------------------
KNN! Sometimes, being stuck in the cycle of working-life can be very demoralizing. I seriously NEED to recharge!!
------------------------------------------------------

Random No. 1:
*Disclaimer: The following post is definitely not an advertisement for smoking. The author has no intention to promote or encourage such activity which can bring hazard to the health. Also, it is government's advice that SMOKING can cause short and long-term health problems and may, in some severe cases, cause death.

*Ahem..

My friend here got himself a daily dose of joss-sticks smokes.

"Emergence of the smoking 'ERA'.. Do you guys really have to indulge into this?"

Well, normally I would diss them (cos I don't smoke myself..) and tell them not to smoke too much etc etc etc..

But this time, I found something weird, and instead of going on with my routine 'dissing' I picked up the packet of 'Slowly-killing-you' sticks and squint my eyes on a particular detail..

What the heck!

"What the heck is going on?!"

St. Co (My secondary school, St. Columba Secondary School) is producing all this sh*ts!

LOL!

Random No.2:
As I was daydreaming at my office (after working hours), this bright light shone into my eyes. Feeling 'dulan'ed, I went to close the blinds at the windows. Then suddenly something struck me..

Is this a hint that Mr. Up-there-who-is-watching-me giving me?

"*Jeng!!! Wake up from your pathetic day-dream boy!!"

I MUST buy TOTO this coming weekend..

LOL!

Final Union F.C.: Official Photoshoot..

----------------------------------------------
*Edit: I've gotten the names for the players whom I'd put 'dunno who' previously below.

Thanks to Nigel for such a wonderful job on the team photo-shoot. The result, jaw-dropping. :) I feel like I'm playing for Man Utd now.. lol.
----------------------------------------------

In conjunction with the National day, our team decided to take a few snaps as a memorial before returning the cup we've won last year.

The weather was wonderful, not too hot nor too cloudy. Lim, as usual was our official camera-man and mind you, he takes really good pictures.

"Bate and Huat discussing with Nigel (Lim) on the shooting pose.."

"Defending our cup next month, Adam (Captain) seems like he does not want to give it back just yet.."

"Chinese League Cup, another piece of silverware on our team cabinet.."

"See what I told you.. He just won't wanna let go.."

"Just the perfect weather for photo-shoot.."

"Two lovers striking a pose.. -_-b.."

"Still not enough of it.."

"Define 'professionalism'.. Bate and Lim still discussing on the pose.."

"Michael (No. 5) seems to have worn the wrong pair of socks.. 'Mom put this in the bag for me!'"

Loke seemed to arrive late, he had to pick up someone from the station. Also, he brough along our team banner:

"A great 2 hour craftsmanship from Loke (Club President).."

"A candid pose before the official one.. Look, there is a ghost on the left!"

"Now, where did the ghost go?"

"Adam finally let go of the trophy, but only to be attracted to this banner.."

After a series of behind the scenes photos, and almost an hour plus of preparation, here is the result:

"Loke came in late, so he's not in the picture."

"The full squad.. team of Final Union F.C. for 2008/2009.."

Players:
Front seated: Along, Ming Hui, Maripa, Loke, Sim (Vice-Captain), Alai (Coach), Adam (Captain), Uncle Kuek, Huat, Puteh, Dawat.
Standing behind: Ah Liang, Dylan, Federick, Ron, *Dunno who (lol) Jeff, Ah Ping, Adrian, *Dunno who again (Wtf!) Liew, Michael, Sean, Ming Jie, Bate (a huge fan..).

Guess what, taking a photo like that made me feel like I'm playing for United.. Lol..

"Champions of 07/08 season and Champions League winner.."

Looks alike right? XD
