Staying with family

Asian are very much conservative and hope that all the family members staying together in one roof forever. Comparing with Westerner they encourage their children to move out from family and independent at the teen age.

Perhaps I am having a lot of problem staying with family especially jobless days. I really dreams to move out, to the extend of moving oversea alone. I cant stand my mom/sis calculating how long I shower, what time I should take my meal, what time I should go to bed etc etc.

I missed the days when I staying alone, even if it just a tiny apartment. At least I am free….

ZzZzZz days

I had a fight with my mom and sis today because my sleeping hours has totally turned up and down. I woke up by 5pm and slept at 7am, sometimes 8am or can up to 11am…

I am sure that I didn’t did this on purpose but indeed my body is adjusting slowly gaining the proper resting. I can feel that I am full with energy each time I awakening. But they just don’t understand and accusing my pimples popped up is due to my irregular sleeping hours.

To upset them, I told that I gonna find a permanent night shift job to adhere this life style. Hahaa. They were scared to hell and even gossip to my brother asking him to tell me not to do so. Anyhow, I am grown and please let me do what ever I like!!

New year new resolution

Touching 2007 everyone is talking about bonuses and holidays. Whereas I gotta sit home hunting job and checking on the Jobstreets everyday to monitoring my application status.

Saving is dropping but I am still hoping to get a trip. Reason being is because a friend of mine just came back from Japan again. Yes, again! She just went there few months ago for Sakura but this time for red leave. Very rich 'biatche' and always only makes me extremely jealous.

I must not look down by her. My New Year resolution is to travel as much new places as possible. Despite of business trip or personal trip, must make it!

Take a punch!

Today 2 friends of mine are getting married. One of them know me since college, we went to industrial training together and share some wild experiences as a new junior at these dangerous and ever hungry society. Today we were both growth and became the predator for the young ones. Feels like just yesterday…

Another one is my ex-ex-boss. We begin with some drama and then became good friend by breaking the wall between superior and subordinate. We shared our 4 years in the same company, watching her broke off and getting a new boy friend then marry now. Very complicated. Hahaa…

Life is about stages and marriage seems to be another level of life. Looking at them stepping into the next level, it makes me feels like wanna getting married also. But first step, gotta find a partner first… Damn, what a loser…

Job-hunting

Back to the jobless status, I start to hunt for a new job. But the employment market is damn quite. Mostly because of the year end where people is waiting for the bonuses.

Pity me, please get me a job, best if can be the oversea and expatriate come with deadly high pay, super heavy traveling and not much of work… Hahaa, I think I am getting crazier for a job.

Somehow as I know there are such luxury job out there, but why cant I find one? Why?

Lady boss


Quitting this job is a relief for me. I hate looking my boss’s face especially when she speaks with her piggy and doggy group of sluts. So fake yet thought nobody knows how disgusting they are.

Nevertheless she is very efficient and highly capable, but for more than half of the year consistently insulted by her, I am totally devastated by her perfectionist type of management style.

She is the only married lady that I know who is never needed to go home on time to do house work and cook! The best is she got 2 kids to take care. Some time I also wonder how her husband feels. Isn’t he lonely and what is the point for marrying such workaholic wife?

Somehow I know. Cause each time they have a fight, I wont be have good time for the rest of the week because she will show her ‘wok’ face and double her insults on me…

Don’t push me cause I am closed to the edge! I think this is the reason why I leave the job. She even dares to ask me why I wanna quit, stupid isn’t it? I know she just want me to come out a reason instead of herself making the story to cover her ass. But peoples are not blind; I will wait and see how long she can play as good employee in the company. Hehee…

7 years’ itchiness

Lately I noticed this song ‘Walk Away’ from radio because personally I like lady singing the rock song. The artist - Juwita Suwito who sounded a bit like Kelly Clarkson for me.

Few weeks back when I am working as my part-time job -> sending my nephew home, we came across this song again from the radio. My nephew told me she had just performed at their church a while ago. (At that time I still got no idea the song title/artist until they told me…)

When I was looking for the lyric I also found out this song bring a true love story about a 7 years relationship been broke off because of the third party intruder… The story came from Singapore; this lady put her story in blogger also because her cousin is the songwriter and this song is indeed dedicated for her. From her blog I am glad that she has walked out from the pain. But I am still clueless, is that a must a relation will fade away when it on achieves 7th year?

Forwarded email

This morning I received this forwarded email about the horoscope characteristic. Take a look for first paragraph.

"This is HOROSCOPE for you Once you have opened this e-mail, there's no turning back. Below are true descriptions of zodiac signs, with traits from a book written 35 years ago by an astrologic predictor. Read your sign, then forward it on, with your zodiac sign and label on the subject line, This is real deal, try ignoring it, and the first thing you'll notice is having a horrible day starting tomorrow morning - and it only gets worse from there."

I am not sure about how you feel. But my first impression is why my friend sent this piece of junk to spoilt my morning mood? Is she trying to curse me or just wanna ‘survive’ from this email curse? If she were to, then is that worth for her to sent this chain email cursing all her friends while only she is surviving? Clearly this is a very selfish act and it makes me start skeptical about our friendship.

The best part of this curse is the author also added a timeframe for every horoscope sign, and it was ended with something like this “4 years of bad luck if you do not forward.” Hahaa, I am damn speechless on that…

For me the author who wrote this chain email is stupid enough, but the person who read and forwarded it is rather idiot. Maybe you do agreed with the author but I just don’t see the logic within.

只有一丝落寞感...

不知从何时开始,对于每天所听所闻的大小事已渐渐的失去感觉。无论是开心的或是伤心的,一切也开始觉得不重要,只觉得是应该的。有时真的在想这是我这年龄该有的思维吗?就如一个已患上绝症知道自己死期而在待死的人所有的观念,对于眼前一切的事物都不再感兴趣,更加不会刻意的强逼自己去感动...

还好,对于自己这样的性格还会感到一丝的落寞。不知是喜或悲...

ESCAPE trip to Shanghai - Part III

A bit lost track on what I've done on each day in Shanghai. Better just tell what I've remembered... (Please la, getting older already. Memory rusted.)

This time I travel alone by leaving my friend at ShangHai while I went to Hang zhou for 2 days 1 night stay. I woke up about 3pm, afraid of being rob or any 'in case'. I decided to bring only RMB600 to Hang Zhou. (Brave huh? haha..)

Having the urge to travel by train but was not able to catch it due to my overslept.. Stuck at the Shanghai train station, I walk around and found next to it was the bus shuttle terminal which have a frequent of 10 minutes later. But the clock at that time was pointing nearly 6pm... Indecisive and thus called my friend and ask if I should go. Friend is telling to wait for him til Saturday/Sunday but i feel neglected. Without thinking much, i went to bought the bus ticket and apologise to my friend while waiting the bus to move on.

The journey took about 2 hours and I finally arrived by 8pm without knowing where I located. Walking out from the passing gates and tons of hypes is waiting to hit your wallet by their tricks. Basically I just run through the crowd and started to regret about the decision. Trying about an hour to look for the tourist center but failed, best is witness the China kungfu for a quite old couple who is fighting across the road. Damn, the people there feels nothing but i was frightened like hell til cant wait to run out from that place.

Hop into a bus heading to railway station, hoping I can find the tourist center or else just take the train back to Shanghai. But then another worse nightmare coming ahead, where the railway station has closed. Very helpless and loitering around the city, time is touching 10pm and wondering why I so bad luck, I saw the big yellow banner with the tourist center number... Bingo! Called up the number and the guy from the other end told me to take the cab as they are closing by 10.30pm.. At last i managed to reach there by 20 min.

Problem solved, but followed by another--> Accommodation. The guy told me is impossible to look for a place as China golden week holiday and everywhere will be fully occupied. He passed me a local map and advise to look around nearby. Instead of follow the map, I followed the foreign couple who is coincidently walking by. Along the way i spotted this motel but went in then only found out this is indeed a hooker place. No choice but to stay in as they offer good price though. (hey, not the hooker ok!)

Whole night was awake due to the mix effect of danger/excited/noise of the hooker/restaurant/mahjong etc etc. I began my new day with my deep and swollen eyes... Visiting around Hangzhou is interesting and I pack myself back to Shanghai around 7pm. Unfortunately the train ticket was sold out, but they offer me to stand in the train. (Can you imagine that?) However i was so lucky to found a nice corner in the train with a wood chair and slept over the 2 hours journey. Terrible yet interesting experience and if there is another chance, Im sure i will travel there again.. But this time I will bring enough cash and ofcourse, proper planning of accommodation. Hahaa...

ESCAPE trip to Shanghai - Part II

Day 4 : Friend finally get his butt back to work, I am alone and action is on. Start my first adventurous trip to somewhere nearby by bus/train. First bang it took me quite some effort to sort out the central bus terminal in Shanghai although I am able to read Chinese..

Finally able to locate the bus, without asking much from the tourist counter I am on the bus and on my way to the China's AAAA class water village - Zhu Jia Jiao. Because I am slightly late in the morning to catch the bus, the first thing I arrived is to hunt for food! Based on my research from internet, the forum told must try the dumpling and marinade cook meat. Maybe i famish to dead, the dumpling was incredible great. But the meat... no comment. However I still bought extra for my pity friend who back to work.

The village is nice, murder lotsa digicam's memory then only make my way home. Here comes the drama while I wait for the bus - the fight of ticket seller and passenger. Luckily no physical injuries but I witnesses the power of Shanghainese about their quarrelling skills for the seat... Not impressed...

Along my journey back to town I remember those elder always mentioned how beautiful the scene with tree, river, villages etc. But from what i saw over the windows, infact its every where as long as not within the town. You can see the local walking, sitting roadside or riding the bike. Villages are every where and they relying on that to live. I wonder whats the point for paying the entrance to visit the water village while I can just pay the bus fare and see it more than there..

Time is out, lets continue the journey next time..

ESCAPE trip to Shanghai - Part I

Back to the memory of October, I went to Shanghai Chine for the 10 days ESCAPE. Its the matter of fact that this trip is not only about the leisure but also escape from the stress given by work.

Thankfully the ex-colleague for staying there 1 month business trip, I managed to tap in and utilized his benefits of service aprtment, which save my journey fees tremendously. Take a look on my itenery...

Day 1 : Arrival - Beijing road - Famous street with all types of typical Shanghai chic, but I got the advantages to check out others because of the Independence Golden Week of China... the only thing i can say is China are hell lot of peoples!!

Day 2 : After the culture shock from these people waves, my friend took me to Yu Yuen. A park in the city.... Well, nothing much to say on this cause just a park in the city, with lotsa historical inheritance. This only remind me failed my history all years long during my school time....

Day 3 : Dont have much memory at this day. Must be something not interesting, but I am sure I still within the town... Not sure what I have done... Damn, waste of money.

continue again next time la, a bit exhausted for trying to remember the travel log...

About myself…

Everyone have they own story to tell, I am just another ordinary person sharing the same story that you might already heard of. Nothing is special about my life and apparently I seem to following the footsteps where the mid age groups have already went through.

Coming from a normal and plain family, I don’t have the luxury to sits home and enjoy the loaded inheritance. Therefore working is the only options to make my own living. Without having the high qualification, working in the current society also makes me tougher as anytime might loose the job to those youngster which occupying the market soon.


Once upon a time was thinking to setup own business but somehow the fire was never flare. Can’t really blame anyone or anything cause the factor still remains myself dare not challenge the risks. The only thing I can do now is to maintain my job, stay low profile in the company and hope one day save enough money to visit the places and peoples that I always dying for.


What an ordinary life isn’t it? Well that’s mine…
