Tarap - Making Sabah very da unique

Buah tarap - the unique fruit that can only be found at certain areas in Borneo. heheh this is the after pics actually... am counting how many ulas that got in my stomach
My guess.. this fruit comes from the same family(Moraceae) as cempedak and nangka (a.k.a jackfruit)So good you can even have it on it's own or goreng buat mcm cempedak goreng or buat bubur nyum.. nyum... but I only found out about one pantang recently ... well, this fruit tidak masak on tree.. kena ambil then perap baru dia masak... so the pantang said, the fuit cannot touch our knees or else the fruit will never ready to be eaten... is it really true??

Off-Training Weekends

Quite bored when you wanted to go somewhere but there's no transport (not the public) and nobody to accompany *sigh* Luckily I have my lil sis in law and my lil bro working here. But tidak sampai hati pulak leaving lady G who just arrived late evening last Friday. Had asked her to join but she refused (segan la bah tu, baru kenal kan).

There's no official training during the weekend, pandai-pandai sendiri lah jaga diri. Coincidentally, both of the sis and bro had just bought their own car. The sis not more than 3 months ago, the bro pulak memang fresh keluar dari kedai hahaha. So, apa lagi... rasmi lah both cars ikekeke. We're off visiting families for lunch (jam 3 tuh lunch... ayoooo). Thanks Ina for the yummy luncheon heheh.

Then, we went to KL Sentral to change Lady G's date of departure. Terkena pula trainee at the ticketing counter... lambat pulak kena tunggu to settle(The supervisor ajar2 the trainee.. dgr byk kali lak tuh that trainee make mistakes...huhuh...) nasib baik ada nametag 'Trainee' tu, if not, you'll be in my Customer Service blog's label.

After that, I've requested to go to Alamanda. My doter asked me to buy her Barbie panties (Jealous with her bro wearing superman briefs ikekek... the bro is undergoing potty training). These are the items bought:

Barbie and Disney Princess Panties, Ben 10 briefsMarvel heroes beach wear and Thomas & Friends 3/4 pantsDisney Princess Pjs

Bajet 2010

I'm reading the budget speech text and listing out several points that will have direct effect on me:
Hopefully the blackout occurrence will be minimized.The needs of improvement on the water supply is also critical at my place.
I only have 1 which I've been controlling the use are strictly for fuels, air tickets and my mom's insurance. Really don't know whether the bajet is on the card user's side or actually it's encouraging people to not using cards anymore??

It's a good thing that we will have an extra 1k relief.Been planning to buy house near KK for investment.Yeah... another extra 1k reliefHoping that includes the road to our new house.
Last but not least, the part where most colleagues been waiting... Even it's only RM500, better than nothing lah kan... bersyukur ja... alhamdulillah.

Day 2: 1st training injuries

It was very painful not at the outside, but in the inside. I'm one of the 'new faces' and not yet to show the best of me. I heard painful comment 'she's new, not used to our training' but lady c and some of the other comfort me by saying 'Don't push yourself' yeah... maybe I'm trying too hard. What's bugging me is why does it happened? I was doing the drill and speed.. the 1st round was okay... but the 2nd... I kissed the track... whoahhh... my knees and elbow were all red and bruised.

The incident brough me the flashback on few years back where I was running in the special event and my shoes were flying in the sky and I was doing a 'superman' stunt on the track... luckily we're managed to won the gold medal... and I can say that the casual shoe had the fault on it. But today? I was wearing the running shoe and yet I'd bruising myself. Inilah akibat terlampau lama berehat or maybe it's a sign that I should stop... but today I was amazed by this pakcik, he was running i dunno maybe more than 5 round the 400m track without stopping or slowing... he's stamina gets a thumbs up from me... really... he's maybe in the late 50's. So, sports is not for young people only... we're doing sport for a healthy lifestyle (pujuk ati ni ikekeke)

Tight Schedule


Yeah... I'm in a very tight schedule... It's already October, and September report shows I'll have to double-up the monthly production starting October to meet up the individual statistic points. Unfortunately, at this time around,there's too many activities that I could not reject to be in part, whether it's a family thingy or official functions. Luckily, some function appeared to be held at the same time and I have to decide which one should I attend.. (mcm YB pulak hahaha)

At the time of writing this entry, we have just finished the 'Antar Berian' ceremony <-- My brother is getting married this coming 12/12/2009.The 'Antar Berian' is the 3rd procedure to get married for most Malays (1st is 'Merisik' <-- to ask the bride-to-be family whether the girl is already taken or not ikekeke. 2nd is 'Bertunang' a.k.a the engagement.) So, everythings confirmed, wait the Day lah baru penat balik.

Few weeks before, I was asked to be the emcee for the National level conference. Actually, being the emcee is not new to me but this time is different. The conference is conducted in English so I'll be handling it in English, which is VERY NEW to me. It's been a long time since I stand up in front of people speaking in English, but I didn't say no to them, it's a challenge in my career.

Last week, I received an email saying that I'll be in for training for the Ministry Level sports and games. Clashed date with the conference. I have to reject the emcee offer and accept the sports... already started in the gym last Friday and will do so tomorrow. I'll be on leave the next day to settle my personal thing (will reveal after everythings ok) and the day after I'll be flying to the academy for 1 week aggressive training which I'll be participating the games started in 29th. Hope everything will be going smoothly and wish me luck!!!

Making Friends


091009: I've met 3 new friends on this date.They're totally with different backgrounds from each other but we're all sharing the same gender thus adding up the number of girlfriends I have until today.

Lady A, she's a mother of 16 months baby girl named Danisha, and happily married to a soldier. The hubby wanted another baby and she adores me for already have children with different gender. We're also sharing the delivering experiences and have a chit chat on the types of family planning methods. She's going to change from pills to injections as pills makes her too thin. As a preparation for the next baby, she wanted to upsized her body so that she said she'll have the energy to deliver.. hahahah.. She talks a lot and I really like that heheh... She reminds me of my long lost contact high school friend, the petite Donna.

Lady B, she's an unemployed off-campus student. She lives in the Kampong where few peoples I knew lives there, but unfortunately the people we both knew are only by the name, not really attached. She asked a lot about myself and she kept on saying that I was lucky and admired my 'younger than age' appearance hahaha. She was very surprise to know that I'm a mother of two and already in my thirties. There's at one time she went to one of the Chancellor's Hall to study for the exam tomorrow and she accidentally slept there until a lecturer came in and woke her up the next day. To make it worse, the lecturer told her that he's going to conduct a lecture there and students already waiting outside... whoooaahhh... I could imagine how I'm gonna change uni if that's happened to me.

Lady C, she's the youngest among them, only 17 and will be sitting for SPM at the end of this year. Lady B said that they're cousins but Lady C didn't recognized her. Lady B also told me that Lady C comes from a wealthy family.. yess... it really shows... the Nike sneakers, the 2 mobile phones that kept on ringing, the RM50 x 2 notes she offered to Lady B as an exchanged for RM100 note (I didn't bring that much when I was in her age --> but she admitted that she 'bodek' her father to get it ikekeke) and the car she drives. Not really into conversation but to me she's not 'sombong' tho. Probably the age gap making her not really 'in' the topic mostly discussed heheh... If I were her, I'll be busy with my mobilephone too. But when she talks, she reminds me of my lil sister in law hahah especially the way she called me 'kakak'.

I love making friends but I'm not good at breaking the ice, and I seldom asked stranger friend personal questions unless the person reveals first. But I don't mind being asked... I've always have a 'safe' answer for the too personal q's... Nice meeting you galsss... c ya again this coming 20th... and goodluck to all of us.. *wink* *wink*

Disaster Leave

At the minutes of writing this entry, my friend text me that I was lucky today for not going to the office because it's officially a disaster leave... floods everywhere and most of the northern colleagues (including me) didn't make it to the office. Is it still consider to be lucky if I woke up early as usual and apparently I was stucked in a massive flood jam for an hour, then after struggling to find non-flooded road to go home I was actually wasting fuels (the total mileage is 144km!!) and spending more than 5 hours in car??
The reason why I wanted a 4wd!!

Unusual traffic crawls between 7am - 8am both from and to KKmany vehicles refused to go further... either stop by the side or take the u-turn... The flood is 10m away from me... kunun mo redah saja, sekali tgk saga tenggelam, sikit lagi mo dekat bonet kedalaman dia!!See anything? hahaha... I was zooming at the flood after taking the u-turn and stop at the other side, but my hp's camera didn't captured the scene in action
