Mulu I miss you!

The journey begins on 11th July 2008 with a flight early morning to Miri, Sarawak and followed by internal flight by MAS Wings to Mulu using Fokker.

Its been a great experience for me, as this is the first time I ever boarded a Fokker.

The 30 mins fly from Miri, brought me to another world. Its full with trees, mountains, river and sunny day. At first I am so lost at the entrance of the Mulu National park. Seems like I am departed from human civilization, no traffic jam, no cars, no buildings, no sky scrapper. I was stunned and been wondering what in the world I am doing here?

Well the excitement started with me getting my room at the Nationak Park HQ. Roland was friendly and kind enough to make our arrival a comfortable one. My room has 4 single beds, with hot shower and air-cond worth RM145.00 per night stay for the whole room. But I wonder why need aircond when we stay in jungle? Well my fellow colleague can't blend in nature, as they are born in KL and they are urban creature. I start to understand and realize how lucky we are indeed.

The tour and excitment begins with a 3KM board walk to 2 caves. My tour guide is Roland, this is the 2nd time we encounter with Roland. I walked along with the group behind me, with Roland and few other friends. We happily chatted and was given an invitation to stay at Roland's house for a hot meal of phython meat muahahahaha no thanks, yukky lar....

Along the way, I spotted alot of beatiful creatures. Stick Insect, spiders, hammer head worm, odd colored caterpillars, ants and not to mention sumpah-sumpah and lantern bug. Deer Cave and Lang Cave stand mightily awaits its tourist without any complaints welcomes me. in the end of the 3KM walk. The smell of guano reminds me of Gua Tempurung and my own house back in Taiping. Soon it was raining and I was so upset that there is a possibility that the bats are not going to show their aviation skills. Well I sat at the bat watching area, and praying that I could witness the bats exodus to finding their dinner. And when I was about to give up, miracle has its own way to reflects its strength. Millions of bats left the cave into the forest to find their food. Swarming out like giant snake in the air, it is really an eye opener to me. Millions of them, expressing its nature sense by demonstrating several different formations.

On the second day, I was put in a long boat, driven by 2 penans and 30mins up the stream I headed. I arrived at one of the Penan settlement, Kampung Batu Bungah. having to feel the daily life of the Penan, makes me feel glad that I am living a luxurious life back home. The journey then continues on with long boat trip again to Clearwater Cave and Wind Cave. Wind cave King's Chamber is really amazing. I am glad that I had live today to witness what nature has left for me millions year ago till today. The stalagmite and stalactite formation is awesome! The clearwater cave has its own way to win the hearts of it's visitors. Thundering sound of the river water flowing through it and opens to the stream is a specialty of this cave. After lunch picnic, again I was put in the long boat. And this time I headed to Kuala Litut. I was left there with my friends at the river bank, and lead by jungle trail to Camp 5. This 8.8 KM which took me 2 hours to finish really sent a strong message up my mind that car and air-cond is the greatest invention in human civilization. Along the way I meet a Lun Bawang fellla named Eugene or Yu Gin according to some people there. He show me some shortcut and show me the way to Camp 5 and not to mention, show me a river spot for me to have a dip and few creatures to admire on.

I have learn on thing there n then, when things get so critical, when you are left witht the choice to wait or to keep on moving, although you are too tired to move on, the pressure of unknown environement pressure did miracle. I didn't where i get this strength to keep on tailing Eugene. Till one time, Eugene turn back and smiled and say "Cepat jugak kamu kejar saya"

Ish is not matter of cepat or not, I really wanted to be with someone who knows the place well. Hehehe i kiasi la.... Eugene brought me to a river to catch a breath.... he is really a nice orang asli, he told me lots of stories regarding his people and the place it self when we are soaking in the icy cool river! OMG, is like an ice cream heavenly treat on a sunny day!

Then Eugene says that we should get going, because its going to rain soon and camp 5 is not far away...yea rite, for him of course near la, he so used to this journey, he can even make his way out in the nite through the jungle!

On the way, i feel someting wrong on my knee area, but is not my knees giving up, is something different, itchy yet pain. Oh don't you guess, yes pacat! hahaha i don'y know wat to do, i don have salt with me! so i ran up to Eugene, and ask him "Boleh tolong tak?", yes that was the words that I could utter, becasue i don't know how serious or should i freak out, but then i jz show him the pacat from the place i stand. And to my shocked, he came to me with his hand in his parang! wah! need or not use parang chop the pacat? what happen my leg ar? seeing me face turn green, with his comforting look and efficient hands, he took out, no not the parang, but one bottle of duno wat cream, he took some off it and rub on the pacat. The pacat drop off leh, wah! amazing, i was amazed, but then i keep myself calm n cool, because i dun wan to be so sakai....
he give even apply some of the cream on the bite spot, and the bleeding stops...hmn holy cream la! wah i am enlighten, i am such a sampat sakai! Then we walked another 200m, the jungle tracks widens to some taste life!

Camp 5 is very scenic, with river and mountains surrounding it, no communication line, is really a heaven to get away from hectic city life. The night breeze is cold and no mosquitoes! According to the local, the mosquitoes were eaten by bats. Thank you bats! There I meetup with my guide Jerry, a skinny and nice penan. Very friendly and suportive.

The next day, I woke up at 5 AM, get ready for a treacherous day. Climbing the Mount Api, a total off 2.4km which elevates me up 1200Meter above sea level proven to be not an easy job. Each of us need to bring 3 liters if water for the climb, which one of it will be left at 900m mark. Reaching the pinnacle is really a hell as the rocky steps seems like endless and the last 400m of rock climbing is really a great challenge. I would say, stamina alone is not sufficient. Stamina plus mental power is essential. I started the hike at 6.45am and reach the pinnacle view point at 11am. Spend an hour up there and start descending at 12noon. If you think that getting up is terrible, I would say getting down is horrible!

At 800 meter, my whole body was giving up and i feel dizzy, i don't know why, but feel like vomiting la...hehehe not to mention my knee really hurts! yea really hurts! Luckily Ezra was there at 800m point, he gave me some pain killers and i oso got some choco left, so take a rest while waiting for the rest, GC was so excited to reach camp 5, and we thought that LL and VC was in front, but then we are wrong, their water bottles still at 800m, yea, we are the first two from our team to reach 800m mark I slept at 800meter and suddenly it started to rain, oops, me n GC rush down like mad, you wouldn't want to know how hard it is to get down when the rocky terrain is wet and slipery!

I manage to reach the Camp 5 at the foot of Mount Api at 4.30pm, spending 30minutes for a short nap at 900m. It was a nightmare but I am very happy that I made it without much preparation.

The next day I went back to the Mulu National Park via the same route. 8.8km of jungle trek, 1 hour long boat. Its very hard this time round with sore muscles on the thigh and pain on the knee due to climbing the pinnacle. At night, I participated in the night walk, looking for nocturnal animals and insects. I was with Andrew a dark skin Penan, hehehe actually i confused whether the person in front of me is andrew or a tree, i am confused! First time ever in my life i saw big stick insect, gecko and moon rat. The guide and me was frightened by the moon rat who was looking food along the walk way. But i think the moon rat terkejut to see me rather than the way around. Its obvious, the moon rat ran for its life back to the bushes during the encounter. Poor moon rat.

after the canopy walk, few of us decided to go for a drink. At the nearby stall, we sit down and had a drink. There was a bunch of tourist enjoying the night and entertained by some of the guides. Yeah those guides also act as entertainment artist, singing and dancing local tunes and dance steps. I saw Andrew, Eugene and Ezra there....hehehe so coincidence.

The next day, I went to the canopy walk. Relaxing and soothing. Fresh air and sounds of the jungle is really a blessing. And without realizing, its time to leave Mulu National Park. I am quite sad to leave that area. Its been so relaxing (apart from the pinnacle climb) and adventurous (pinnacle climb).

Arriving back to KL I feel like I just had a wonderful dream, and waking up, I am back to reality. KL.... hectic and polluted atmosphere.

Thats all for my 5D 4N experience at Mulu National Park. Apart from the pinnacle, I would recommend Mulu National Park as a get away for urban people. But for those who are active and daring enough, the pinnacles awaits you.

I will include some contact of people that you could contact and make arrangement if anyone would like to go to Mulu. Till the next post, I need a break now, hitting the bed. Good week ahead everyone!

5D 4N at Mulu National Park - Day 1

It was just 4.30Am, i was awake and busy loading my stuff into car....making my way to my long awaited holiday gateway.

I went to park my car in PJ and headed to KL Sentral. I was bit late by 5 mins to catch the 5am bus, well boarded the 5.30am bus instead wit SCM, GC, PT, CLL, Vc. And oso an un-intended passenger TP. Wow! early morning saw ghost!

arrived at LCCT, with my jaw ajar like the mulut tempayan!aiyo LCCT was so crowded and suffocating! w/o any wasting time, went on to check in and scan luggage.

Waited for the plane for about 40mins and off i flew to Sarawak! Yea...arrived at Mulu and was greeted by Drinking Water at RM3.00, woaaahhh its like petroleum punya harga!!!!

check in for MAS internal flight. and waiting for the plane to arrive, has a not-so-nice but still edible wat tan hor....well beggar can't be chooser ma....anyway, i can eat one...i am not chooser hahaha

the Fokker arrived! wow wee!! first time in my life boarding a fokker! got propeller...and its noisy too.... and oso not stable...

boarded the plane, packet drinks were served...and 30 mins so so landing time...uih... so fast...not even finish reading the Going PLaces landing liao! arrived at Mulu, and was dumped on a 4 wheel drive and taken a short 3mins drive to the Mulu National Park entrance. Was greeted by Larry, i can defintely sense that Larry is a very warm and kind person as he is very nice to us. Putting aside the fact we are paying, but its seems like Sarawak people always like to welcome people to their place, and eager enough to show us around, and proud of what they are, and what they have!

soon i arrived at the maint entrance. wow it was then i feel myself engulfed by the nature...trees, rivers, caves, mountains every where, minus the regular buildings and traffic jam...
hehehe

The 30 mins fly from Miri, brought me to another world. Its full with trees, mountains, river and sunny day. At first I am so lost at the entrance of the Mulu National park. Seems like I am departed from human civilization, no traffic jam, no cars, no buildings, no sky scrapper. I was stunned and been wondering what in the world I am doing here?

Well the excitement started with me getting my room at the Nationak Park HQ. My room has 4 single beds, with hot shower and air-cond worth RM145.00 per night stay for the whole room. But I wonder why need aircond when we stay in jungle? Well my fellow colleague can't blend in nature, as they are born in KL and they are urban creature. I start to understand and realize how lucky we are indeed.

The tour and excitment begins with a 3KM board walk to 2 caves. My group was lead by a Penan, named Roland... very young looking mid 30s guy... with lots of sense of humor too. I was at the front with Roland most of the time and we were chatting about the forest, about his life in Mulu.... interesting enough he teach me how to scald a monitor lizard and skinning it and putting some spice and herbs on it to prepare fast food! yuksss.....and oso he share with me his secret ular sawa recipe... i almost fainted and he keep on laughing as he can see the reaction on my face.

Along the way, I spotted alot of beatiful creatures. Stick Insect, spiders, hammer head worm, odd colored caterpillars, ants and not to mention sumpah-sumpah with the help from Roland.

Deer Cave and Lang Cave stand mightily awaits its tourist without any complaints welcomes me. in the end of the 3KM walk. The smell of guano reminds me of Gua Tempurung and my own house back in Taiping. Soon it was raining and I was so upset that there is a possibility that the bats are not going to show their aviation skills. Well I sat at the bat watching area, and praying that I could witness the bats exodus to finding their dinner. And when I was about to give up, miracle has its own way to reflects its strength. Millions of bats left the cave into the forest to find their food. Swarming out like giant snake in the air, it is really an eye opener to me. Millions of them, expressing its nature sense by demonstrating several different formations.

Braving myself through the rain, and guided by my empty stomach, I soon gained momentum to endure the 3Km walk back to our room...it was fun and not to mention, thank god got hot shower! wow wee!!! luxurious treatment in the middle of jungle.

D day for my alma matter

Today is the day where most of us the old ones will make our back to our alma matter to celebrate and witness a annual affair of athletics and field & tracks event.

my day starts off with me giving a simple yet compact lesson on clarinets for my fellow juniors. Be informed that these people are really genius at their age, they pick up very fast despite they are kampung boys.

the annual event start off with parade . OMG the band lines are like cacing, tak lurus pun... wat a put off, well besides than that, their uniform really sucks...inappropriate

after the parade there are several events on the list, after that came the band performance. I was impressed with the commitment they showed, but neverless i felt dissapointed with them. They are merely doing the performance for a show sake, but not knowing anything correct or what they are doing.

they day went off sunny and hot ended up with drizzling. well what can you expect? rain town ma...

came the event for those tua bangka punyer group, lari 4 X 100M

my fellow frens joined the race, and they proven to be making a joke out of everything. Can witness them wear spike shoes and throwing baton during the race...OMG...tis is even better than drama or comedy

came to the finale of the event, tarik tali. guess what, at the final blow of the whistle, tali putus... yea, putus again. Everytime this group of people come back n tarik tali, sure tali putus. Maybe the school should ban them from tarik tali event in the future....hehehe

after the annual affair, we went of to have a drink. And i bcame ahmad for the day sending CK back, and leave my car with AK bcoz he wana go see basketball tournament.

Our own event went on till late night with supper after the basketball tournament watching by AK. CK fetch me to meet up with AK and the rest at PkkAsam. We had some fried chicken and tea. And it was a tiring day after all....aiyo, AK tak mandi lagi! eeeeeeee........ wakakakaka

KL comp

It was an exciting day..... long waited weekend....KL band comp!

I went to Dataran wit CW wit LRT, reach there quite early coz wan get good view..... checkout several bands on the way to the stage area.

Wow, KL band sure evolved alot, but not for VI appearance, bcoz they evolved long ago.... well VI modern dulu ma........

few schools i saw during their rehearsals and not all of them are not up to level yet, despite being located in FT.

but then i think maybe not all have same luck.....fingers oso have short and long la rite?

CBN started the comp, my oh my, CG looks good, i think they are all from the cheer leading team la....... sound quite bad la...blasting and not blending at all...surprisingly during their warmup when they play chorale, it sound well balance and beautiful, strange they can't relate the warm up and their performance... need to work on this huh??

then came cochrane.......... nice sound, but formation quite lose, Jinjang with this head nodding and untuned bass drum, OMG! what does their instructor have in mind? i really can't tell, seems like out out the world.

Well long awaited VI turn... i am amazed that their sound improved alot! not like last time. Last time they use to generate noise more than music, but they are amazing! i think mellophone did help them get the mellow sound and sweet sound out from their ensemble. Baju pun ranggi! wah hebat, the formation oso nice and neat. Champion already la, no need to guess...obvious

SJI turn next, the sound oso improved alot, i heard En S teach them....but surprsingly, En S punya taste oso evolved already....very nice! good job lo! err SJI baju gelap sangat la, then the plume macam tak cukup bajet

the last but not least, CHHS.....aiyo.... sounds blasting here and there n the horn bunyi macam kentut in some phrases, not in pitch most of the time.... but then good work la....sounds big and at least good enough to get close to VI la

what a day........ oh my soul was fed with long lost inspiring marching band treat...yea!

Selangor Comp

I was there at stadium Matsushita witnessing the band comp

i must admit after several years hibernating from the marching band scene, i finally get the force to step in again.

since the start it i was so bored.....i am very sorry that Div B bands are not as good as i expect. There is one school though that captures my ear and attention. Sri Garing...... the sound is quite matured although their instrumentation quite lacking and not so marching friendly, hehehehe

then came this big team, assunta....wow! amazed by the entry...looks like good. But then, its not as good as it look. the sound koyak and the formation is not captivating. not to mention the drum majorette is like entertainer. Sigh........ this is something that doesn't please me after such long time never see marching comp.

well i waited till the team that is rumoured, actually not rumoured la, me myself oso favour this team CHS....

wow......the sound is great....the tuba sound is so captivating, full with bounce and body! the articulation is so pronounced and i can guarantee you i heard the flute articlation so well from my place!

bravo CHS, the formation improved alot, cleaner this time round, but still i think, CHS attack is not as aggresive as previous years....maybe this is their new way of presentation. I am not the judges, so i leave it to the judges to make professional comment rather than i give komen satu sen pun tak laku one......

oh....the song, (i think its Incredible)....stuck in my head ady!!!

Wesak day...hummmm..... lets chant

Its Wesak..... missed an opportunity of long weekend to go home.

Grab an instant opportunity to go witness Wesak procession in KL, my first time eva u knoe?
After probing around to get some victims to join me for my first time eva wesak procession witnessing, its all so heartbreaking.

People no longer devoted...yea like me loe! I dun mind to admit, i am not devoted.
At last i got someone who is Buddhist..... i think any Buddhist i can find beside myself at least get passing marks when it come to understanding and practicing it.

I got Ry wif me and to my shocked, 2 fella more! yea! wat a company we are goin to have ain't we? headed for dinner with ck n lr and picked up ry, we went to park the car at Menara telekom there. Wise enough, behind the police station. I wonder is it really safe to park behind a police station? i wonder they got time to see what is happening at the back of their barrack...wakakakaka

Off we went, happily to Brickfields....we actually on time, ok ok, a bit off time ler.... missed the first few floats. Wow it is great to see so many people so devoted. Minus me la.... mem-paiseh-kan

few floats really captured my eye and hehehe some of the floats sprinkled or should I say small version of splashing holy water on those who witness the procession. Ry was so happy enuf or daring enough to get closer to get some blessing, while I was like kena ma kena lo. CK n LR the other hand stay back....ooppsss forgot to tell u, both not Buddhist ler!

after the procession we went to check out the temple. Lots of people there! its even more merrier than wat we used to have in tpg. Donated RM20 for an oil lamp, which makes me feel bit devoted in some sense. ok at least its a temporary relief for me at the temple.

out of curiosity, me n ry went to queue up at the entrance of one of the hall and we are curious what its for. We went to check out, and its was for those ahem devoted pilgrims to seek for blessing. Hahaha bcoz i donated an oil lamp, let go for it loe....so both of us left CK n LR (the two alleluia) outside for a while and went in for blessing. After the ceremony, which lasted 3 mins, out we went and picked up packet of flower...sob sob... flower petals only.... hahahaha and make a small donation (should say quite small donation)

happily we headed back....eh wait...spotted drinking water under on of the tent. we went to quench our thirst like those African buffalo seeking for a droplet of survival fluid. then that was the time CK spotted soya milk. hehehe anxiously we waited for them to distribute soya milk. Hahaha like never drink before kind..... but to our dismissed, the stirrer used to stir the soya milk was put on the ground, and ry spotted it, but becoz of our devoted spirit, we queue up for it, dun care.....ry didn't have it though..its CK who lebih-lebih, he had 3 cups! wakakakaka

in the end, we called him jia lat! like tak pernah minum n kiasu! hehehehe we headed back to the LRT station and back to home. Poor tired feet!

the next morning, dropped by SF house with ry to get the reptile stool....oh donated the pocket money from 6th to the cyclone victim in Myanmar thru SF. did u use the flower petal ar?? i was asked...yea lo, half packed.... put on my head few petals and stand under the shower....hahaha

away from home approach......so did ry.

visiting the dentist, 2nd time

Again this time round after lunch, i went to fix my tooth again. one of my molar needed to be drilled due to some build up cavity..... want or not, like or don't like, my heavy feet unwillingly travel to the dentist lair....

the experience of drilling is so not nice......after last week, deep and soring drilling, this week, again. I was hoping very very hard that the hole that going to be drilled will be small, but then....haih, it turned out to be big also, but less sore sensation this time.

I was hoping that the tooth can be drilled rather than do other funny stuff to it such as crowning or extraction. the 15 mins of drilling really makes me helpless and surrendered!

While it is almost done, i got one sms...Hahaha but then how to read and reply sms when u r filling your tooth?

It turned out to be ry. He says wana follow me to digiMall later on as he never been to digi mall. I was like "huh? never been to DigiMall? wierd fella..." I was planning to get penDrive after vi sting the dentist, and pickup ry. happily after the ordeal, its time to get something i need. My old penDrive melts in the car due to extreme hot temperature inside the car during noon, haih... my good'ol PenDrive.

we went to checkout digi mall, finding parking is wonderful today, we got one spot immediately on our second round. Oh as compare to few rounds in vain.

hmn i bring ry round DigiMall, and show him few shops that are quite reasonable in pricing. and after digiMall, we went to check out the pet shop nearby for his experiment samples. Nope didn't find any samples.

On the way back, we went down to KL to checkout Jalan Pasar....hehehe i heard of it, but never been to. So its a good thing that we headed down KL to check it out. The journey was fluent, till we reach Jalan Pudu, oh yes the dreaded jam!

arriving at the new 'very old' territory. I was mesmerized with the place. full with old buildings and classic architecture. some how it left both of us having the feeling we are strolling around town of Taiping.... miss it alot loe!

we walk around looking for pet shop....at first we didn't find much, after one round, we parked under the bridge and walk trough the market place...and we found so few stalls selling pets.

Ry spotted one black fish jumping on the ground, grasping air of survival. The poor fish jumped out from its container. Ry was like looking at me "how ar?"

eh, wat how ar?? take the fish n throw it back into the water la..... hehehe he still stand there looking, i think he is stunned. i grab a net and catch the fish n throw it back into the water.... yeah noble act.... but then hehehe funny situation.

after collecting few samples, we headed back PJ....it was a tiring day!

Dentist Part 1

Went to see the dentist today

after more than 10 year i think.........
well although i don't wan't to, but i have to....die oso die la this time

was early at the dental clinic and it really makes me nervous..... after so long never seen the dentist, i don't know what will happen to my teeth today. I just want to get the old filled up tooth to be refilled, it chipped! after more than 15 years, what you think?

The dentist started to check on the teeth...i was praying hard. In the end i heard "Ok, only got one tooth with sign of decay, the molar before the wisdom tooth. I think I already expect that, as i have difficulties in taking care of it due to its physical disallocation.

well the chipped one how? Do it need crowing or can still be filled up again? then i went for an X-ray...OMG i got 2 teeth hiding in my jaw. wierd huh? I still got teeth not yet grow!

The filling process on the my tooth really is a very unpleasant one! Its big and deep enough. It feels so soar and the striking feel of pain really makes me feel dizzy and cramped on my face!
I wish it could be over soon, as its quite unbearable for me,

In he end, its all over and happily I walked away....see u next week! har?? next week?!?!

Blood Donation

Wake up in the morning with a mixture of feeling, feeling great that i have another day to live, feeling tired because of work maybe, feeling on the top of the world because today going to donate blood, feeling scared too because its been long i didn't donate blood.

My attempt to find my blood donation book proven to be in vain. I can't locate any one of my two booklet i have. 1 booklet from GH and one more from PMC

well of i went, to nearby school, catch a light breakfast on my way walking over the pedestrain overhead bridge.

arrive at the school, just to find out that alot of people there! wow, what a great and caring society. I wonder if i need money, will these people donate some for me hahahaha!

ok, went to register... i know that those people from this budhist society did copy my personal details into their record.... haih... i think in the future i will get alot of calls and sms from the soceity i think. well can't help feeling so, because from the amount of info copied from the PPUM blood donation form, its sufficient to bug me..... hmm.... well will see what happen next.

after registration, headed to the second counter to check blood type....... OMG, how come the person who going to poke my finger looks like indon maid? trying not to think too much, i brave myself to surrender my index finger to be sacrifice! ouch! i was feeling very scared because, i really can't help the feeling that this lady knows what she is doin.... well proven to be type B blood as far as i can remember my blood type

carry on to the 3rd counter...hahaha there is this doctor doin interview, asking me some questions bout my health and family background....urm... yea please note that someone near to me did contracted Hep C. The doctor ask me one question after he jot down Hep C "did he survive?"

OMG! my answer for that question was "U think anyone can survive through Hep C?" he gave me a smile and say "No". went on with the blood pressure taking, alamak 130/80 leh...izit because of the thrill being poked by indon look alike lady jz now?
well 130/80 not that bad la.....maybe due to anxious and the walk to the donation center? hmn that doctor did crack some joke, funny thing, is can't afford to laugh..... i didn't even feel like laughing..... and i am laughing now thinking about that situation.

went on to collect my Serum Bag.... or wat so ever it is call..... i notice that malay guy pass me the serum bag inside a container call out my name 3 times! yes 3 times! i wonder why??? i think he knows me....sorry la fren, i can't remember who u are! my bad i have to confess. Oh dear, i dropped the cotton that was used to stop my lancet mark bleeding. Suddenly i was so in shocked. there is this little girl who is one of the volunteer at the blood donation campaign. I think she is primary school. She try to pick up that cotton, luckily i was fast enough.... i stop her from nearing that blood filled cotton. I walk to the trolley and dump it in the yellow bag... yea....the bag that collects blood stained cotton.

I was thirsty, so i ask for water to quench the my thirst....what??? no water for drinking, only have Milo??? aih...apa punya pasal nie?

well proceed to donate blood, the nurse came along and try to find the vein on my left arm... hehehe proven to be hard enough... yea i know...my veins are small around my elbow area. Finally she did manage to find the best among the worse...kekekeke

this time round i find it slow for my blood to fill up the 450ml Serum bag.....

Shabu shabu

Y last day! finally the last SoU leaving for greener pasture

we went to shabu2 in the end, it was suppose to be Yuen steamboat

the seating in shabu2 really make the gathering awkward, we are sitting in a line facing the railing of steamboat items like japanese sushi restaurant

after the unsatisfying wierdness of seating position, we went to the nearest mamak stall to blow water

alot of water been blown and also alot of revealing of sad things that happens in iP.

haih sad to say iP still living in the dark age and moving backwards like ever before

well at least all the SoU left n wish iP the best of the best with its new fresh grad and dinosaur line up!

Left Puchong towards SS2 at 12 midnight and Y followed me to take the travel guide book...yes he is going to Jogja see borobudur!

NZX

It rains....but the outing still goes on!
NW sms says he can't make it...well only KK and ST available.....

went back to office to take my things.....it started to rain when i jz getting off.
pickup ST and KK on time 8.30pm, it rains even heavily. the route from UM to NZX seems quite hard to choose....ended up travel quite long distance to reach.

J and N say will be late, so for safety purpose, its better to drive slower in the rain. reach NZX 9pm so so

when we reach NZX, STn was there also, we headed to 1Stn and ordered some drinks. Later went to next few doors away to buy doughnuts.......

at last manage to sit down n chit chat at 1Stn, but no one singing that night. We were told by the workers there that only on monday, wednesday, friday and saturday nite have some entertainment. well we continue on with our main agenda.

a pile of scores were presented to KK and ST. I think both of them feel so puzzled why they were presented the whole pile of scores. well i think 3 of them KK, ST n NW are the people who have the best quality to take over the 6th choir coach position. But can see that they are also not sure whether they will be able to do so. But then lets hope for the best la...

this is the farthest we can go with them, the rest of the journey its on their own.....or i would say, mostly on their own.

we talked about other stuff basically regarding their medical career and medical domain questions. we had good laugh over some jokes and funny things that happened.

quarrel

aih i ned to confess that i throw tantrum at my boss today...it went well in the morning when i get to work. but once i arrived, i seems like lost control.... i gave him a good look in the eye....

oopss i think both of us sense something burning....

well, Pn tried to start a conversation...i duno y suddenly i feel like keeping quite
well its in the morning, where i usually dun talk much...and i think keep quite its the best, bcoz i know something will go wrong once i start talking...so silence is the best bet......

haih...there is a sense of tense......i can feel it, i think more obvious Pn can feel it la.....
hmn JM promised that things will not be like this, but it still happens..... haih....
yes there is an explanation on why this thing happens....but i am really upset...... i feel very lost...
i dun even know the state of the system now.... which never happens to my development attachment, dun talk about hand over by another people and i need to do support...that one i truly not my cup of tea.....

sorry lo if things does stack up, newly get to know me people usually doesn't understand
it takes a very long time to know my way of doing things..... i dun mind to admit
i am a perfectionist..... which i think most of the August babies are! u can disagree, but i meet alot! i dare to conclude

it was lunch time, i feel so hungry, bcoz i step foot into work 9.15am
off we went to have lunch, and i think something bad happened..........

the much effort to avoid conversation started!
OMG! i think i wandered off very far from the limit this time! yes i wan to confess, i did....
kesian Pn kena teruk..... bombarded with alot of complain.....

its been a while i never acted such way.... how come ar? it still happens.....after dormant for such long time....

personally, i think, i can't accept serious deal at such short notice, unless its emergency which i am well prepared mentally!

off went the complain
1. last minute prod notice which makes people's life hard
2. things not secure, but yet still goin to take the plunge!
3. i didn't had my dinner, if you would jz tell me earlier, i would have cancel my appointment and i think everyone will at least be contented(is tis the right word?)
4.this thing might happen another time when people taste tis is not an issue on the first attempt
5. ask me to tune SQL such last minute when my brain had shutdown will only result in you getting angry and annoyed. eh gila har??? 2 million records one click.....go bek home sleep first la, later only think.

hmn....people always say its like tis, its norm
i always have optimistic view on this issue, things can be better if we really try hard!
this problem is a norm, is bcoz we give in, surrender and let ourself sinkl into the problem. and it bcome norm in the end....i wan a change! at least try

sorry KW i left u waiting at the LRT at wee hours for 30mins the other day! my bad!

Pn try to cut off the conversation, by avoiding further discussion, yes... i was oso trying to initiate that, i know i kenot handle it anymore....so silence is the best defence

Pn buy us lunch.... i duno is it he really wanted to buy, or bcoz something not so happy set off just now..... frankly speaking, buying me lunch is not a good idea if u want to make me ease

the best is, jz listen, and i will try to forget......... how long? hmn not as long as last time when i was young..... but har....its quite strange la in the aftermath! i still feel the same till today.... aftermath.... not nice!

i know u will say, how come i talk like tis to Pn.........
i confess lo...... i really duno...... maybe i jz want an ear....jz happen, he came so near! ish bad timing! i think i am gila abit sometime


sorry........things will be better in the future..... i am trying hard! believe me....if u know me well, u will agree that i have been through a great distance to be a better person as what you see me as today.... i am trying still n i dun mind to tell you.... i am improving and please have faith in me... i am developing, and i want a difference.... its quite an improvement, but its not a reason to stop here!


ps : Pn.....u r very nice person....understanding and pls have some patient dealing with me. i am sorry! deeply sorry for wat had happen, jz that i can't utter those words... i dun like to aftermath

Casa Desa

Off we went to see casa desa today, after much vain effort last week, this time its goin to be a good one. The management is actually letting us in to see the real units at the real site!

hmn not so good as AK was late by an hour

off we go to the Faber tower and was told that the management personnel had headed to the site. So off we go to the site to catch up with the other potential buyers.

aih so nice at last can see the site! wow its impressing...as impressing as the one at Puchong Prima! Big doors, comes with drying yard, well partitioned kitchen area, large tiles, big common walk way and spacious car park! oh sounded to perfect!

we followed the personnel here n there and occasionally wander off to have a peek at those vacant units..... aih from the look at our face, we are dying to get one.... oh yes.... really wanted it!

oh in our tour group, there was this aunty, very bising! macam kereta tua backfire!
she complain so much about the interior, the terrace and trust me everything that she can see, she complained! loud and clear plus annoying plus irritating!

let me quote you some of her words:
"how can you build the lower floor the terrace is actually connected to the common area? people will walk in front of your house! there should be a fence or gate somehow. I don't like people to walk in front of my house and look inside!"

"how can you open the window, you can see the ugly swimming pool in front? where got people design condo like this?"

"The terrace can do gardening, but then i do for other people to enjoy.....I don't like. how come i do gardening other people enjoys it?"

aih.....i did menyampuk some of her complains, i don't know its audible to her o not? i actually tell AK in his face "Complain ma dun buy lo" and "buy your own land n build ur own condo la"

sarcastic but yet.....argghh....kenot tahan dy!

so after seeing the site we went back to the faber tower to see which units are available on sale. To our dismiss, all those nice unit have been sold out....AK was saying, if he would have bought the units 2 years ago.... i know its frustrating, but the sales office Indian lady was wise enough to advice us, actually if we want to be happy, we can be happy with what we have, its just that we choose not to be happy with it. And this is where all other negative thoughts will arise and hatred cultivated! well its true...oh i can keep myself from teasing AK.hahahaha which makes him show some grievance face! Nice! hahahaha sadist

u know what usually happens when 2 virgoans get together? alot of fantasy and brilliant ideas will come up, well and also all sorts of stupid ideas too.

we saw 2 units at the 13th floor goin at 286K and facing to the road. We don't quite like it but then if we were to get, we can choose these best among the worst units. then we saw 3 units of ground floor units with terrace..... haha we oso gave it a tought. AK says if do party, can borrow the terrace at my side....see stupid ideas come out dy.... i told him, if u wan to do gardening, i oso dun mind give u the terrace to do gardening.... brilliant idea huh???

then as we thought the unit beside is empty, the sales lady says "oh jz now the aunty bought it already".....yes its that mulut murai aunty who complain the most, especially bout the gardening part bought that unit.... so sinis we say that those units beside her unit, feng shui no good.....hahaha get it??? the sales lady was so surprised and ask us "how u know the unit feng shui not good?". we told her the aunty beside ma....the sales lady laugh and she couldn't disagree. we had a good laugh.

ok the lady gave us some advice too, she says higher the unit, the more noiser it gets as the noise will disperse as it get higher. facing west units, the higher the floor, the hotter it gets compare to those lower floors. the design of the toilet oso must take into consideration as we might wan to do future renovation. wow...ans some other good points...some i disagree with of course....

the sales lady ask if i and AK were brothers....and i can't help it, i told the lady yes we are.....same father different mother....
AK was stunned and we laugh so loud after that, couldn't help it. the lady was saying "u dun try to pull my leg huh"

we headed for lunch, w/o the indian lady la, we had a serious talk bout the casa desa and the ability to own one unit....i think after thinking logically and some in depth calcualtion of some simple stuff, RM250 for maintenance is really out of our ability....so we both agree to think bout it deeply after this....we went off and think about it nicely....things seems to be quite between us. kekekeke i think we had a good discussion.

then we headed for lunch

Prod in 1 hour!

I am so pissed off, and yes i do!

i almost flared out but then...i am too tired to do so.....i switch from a very rebellious mode into a very ignoring mode........ what ever you want, i give you, but i wan to make things clear, i am not goin to be responsible!

at 5.20pm the was an instruction or should we say summoned by the PM to put 2Bi into prod!
i was like WTF??????

reason:
1. 2Bi code was tangled wit 2Bii, so we have to prod the whole mess up in whole
2. DB was not ready
3. codes not yet been tagged and branched, WTF!

it all came to a very extreme situation, where mati mati they want to prod 2Bi

so now wat do we have here, 2Bii tables not setup in DB and the codes we have was entangled with 2Bii

either way is to put in 2Bii tables in DB or to repackage the codes to contains only newly added 2Bi codes.

i am so pissed off and stressed, since you all put me on nerve.... i deleted the 2Bii codes directly and i frankly tell you, i have no idea at all what had happen and what will happen, i totally will act dumb on this case!

in total disagreement, i called my boss to voice out the concern, but then the decision is go on with it. So after deployment, the first click itself proven to be fatal! its the DB! columns were missing and the DBA told me its actually 2Bii columns

my answer was "i duno its 2Bi or 2Bii, i jz wan to tell you that the column is missing"

then after that remark, the ask the PM to come over, and they added the column.... aih...i duno la, wat ever it is...i not goin to give any comment.

second click is not fatal at first click, but its fatal after 10mins.......the search result doesn't show!
they were saying that the SQL is not tuned.....
so i jz tell them "its not my duty to tuned the SQL, it suppose to be the DBA's job"

well they did reply me with some ingenuous reply "how can u say that, if the project doesn't have DBA how?"

oh wait.....let me have some spatial to breath and think again

1. the DB is not under my authority
2. sucking design of the DB is not mine
3. i am not goin to give any comment or get my hand into this DB shit when it is not my concern in the first place

so take it or leave it, i got my own stand n principle on this matter..... i know they mati2 wan to live bcoz they can have the weekend to clear shit if there is any...

my boss called me and say
"deploy and test on prod"

hello boss a.k.a baby sitter, prod leh, how to test?

"what else might happen"
hello boss a.k.a baby sitter, i duno, jz wait for the time bomb to explode then we know where went wrong la...

back to tuning the SQL, they went on tuning the SQL as they already get my words, i oso mention that i duno oracle specific SQL, so i can't help on this

so they went on tuning the SQL....arllooo, i didn't had dinner and the call for prod in such last minute, i have a dinner appointment on place #$%&%^$#$%%

so for that 2 hours, i waited for them to tuned, then i decided to go off, i can't stand the hunger and people waiting for me for dinner.... so i went off, without a damn care....want to tune, wait till monday la.... its the best i can offer, dun come bargain to me when you wan to do things the hard way

i left round 11.30pm off to kelana jaya, i hunger n stressed out and pissed off..... i was so tired i went the wrong way. i swear that i am so confident that the way i took is correct, mayb hunger plus anger did have its own cocktail effect!
i ended up innocently travelling the other way round wasted RM3.20 toll! meet up with KW n CM dinner was on....yea at 12 midnight!

what a day! pissed off dy and i get tired of this thing, its obviously different from what JM promised, but i try to not give a damn fuss bout it.... i will try...but no promise especially when people put me on nerve!

Looked at the unit, not so promising, but fixtures and renovated, hard to resist. parquet flooring very bad condition, bathroom asbestos ceiling got water mark on it (was told by Joe that its due to water from the Air cond pipe). The owner seems like wanted to sell off, promoting the good point of her unit, renovated la, got a lot of built-in fixture and can be rented out at 1.2K....woah! seems like irresistible. 250K OMG! seems like too X............hehehehehehehe



we left and off to faber. wanted to view casa Desa show unit, but all not there anymore. So off we go to Casa Desa real site....but then AK with his out of the world idea, we detour to see Papillions!

the agent ask AK too...he smile smile smile like kambing! and tell the agent in his face "expensive!"
ok not being too imaginative, its telling to his face in a proper manner.....hehehehe



off we set off to see Casa Desa, aih no luck...no show unit leh! so went for lunch nearby to one shop recomended by AK, sell duno wat shop dy chicken n duck hmn...ok la the lunch... then headed off, and jz about to reach my car, i was lured by the DVD store.... hehehehe automatic the feet will step inside.....as what AK say "no ned suggest you, already enter the shop"

Off we went to Izzi UPtown for our annual choir dinner, but how to say annual when its the first time? They decided to spend the money from the performance early September last year

Guess wat....the bill comes up to RM600 ++ i think and thanks to the discount card, all we need to pay is RM400 ++.

So happy o not leh? uish not yet enough with it, some of us went for mvie......hahahaha

something funny happened after movies, as we all park car at the other side, we need to get there the hard way as the passway inside mostly been locked up. So we went around the old wing quite long, exploring the spatial like exploring new cave!

and after such long trial n error, we decided to get out from the building and headed to the car park from outside! yea its wise and easier to access....hahahaha what a day!

Rough Day, not a pleasant one

I jz recover from cough and flu.

had a bad day at work....everything seems to be not in place!
sigh......its those down moments..... i waited for 2 hours for someone to finish meeting and to tell some not so significant things. I was not happy with it as the words came out "look everyone is trying to make a living here" which struck my head and came out with some thing like

"so i should have jz left earlier bcoz its a job not a life"

haih....i start to realize the management level behaviour....
1. meeting at 11.30am which will stretched till 2.00 pm earliest at most time. conclusion, i was in hunger till flat!

2. meeting at 6.30pm when everyone was about to go home. conclusion, late dinners and again, i was in hunger till flat and late shower which explains y the flu and cough takes long time to recover.

3. Optimistic...wait should be rephrase as too optimistic. conclusion, alot of people suffer and get Pissed Off. which always makes me feel tired and lost interest getting lazy at work.

well i went off to fetch KH, both not yet makan oso, goin for movie (Ah Long) 9.30pm
i made reservation at TGV 9.20pm but the ticket have been released.

i arrived at Pj and first words was "y u r so late?" eh... y ar??
haih KH says should have tell him earlier so he can go pickup tix n have dinner first....haih

yea la, y i didn't think of that? normally i am not so blunt.

missed the show at 930pm because tix sold out... oh only god knows how furious i am now with the 2 hours wait before reaching PJ. i was at GSC. i thought that TGV tix already released so i didn't bother to go over to have a look, so as a result of my stupidity, aih...kena question again ler

"y dun we jz go TGV? always a lot of seats left?"
i keep quite and headed for dinner at Oldtown Kopitiam, guess where, beside TGV...aih... reality struck my eyes! yes no one queuing up!

Ok lesson learnt! learnt in a hard way KH....dun try to provoke my idiotic bluntness
haih......

someone call me..........remind me tmrw go see property.... yes boss!!

nice movie after all, not as nice as other Jack Neo's masterpiece. Message not strong enough but good for the laugh.....which i needed so much! thank god........

April Fool

The day started off not so well with fever.Walk oso not in straight line, but stil can drive. Whn i sit down, i am more stable. The whole day of april fool started whn all the CV and ex-CV people started off wit some gossip.

Well eventually it started off with some grievance but then turned into drama series! every single story seems to be not related but in the end, somehow actors from different drama series ended up into a silver screen movie hahahaha. well the joke went off too much then decided to call it off.

as i jz about to leave the workplace, something bout the DBLink issue pops up. Huh? why at this moment of time when i wan to go for dinner? I actually have agreed to have dinner wit CM, n KW at damansara. BUt then luckily, KW says will be late, so i stayed on till the most i can. Ry called me wit a serious tone in the middle of this DBLink crisis.

My mind was much drifted away towards that issue and Ry says "How you wan 2settle d RM100?"

It is like wan 2start a fight! the tone is so assertive, then with my drifted away mind, i was like? huh??? settle? wat settle? settle means? eh? wat is settle dy har? do i have anything ned to settle wit Ry? sounded so serious. I ended up the call by telling him i will call him back later once i done. NOw got serious work to do.

Once done clarify the DBLink, off i went for dinner. Fetch CM from BU and headed to Damansara. KW arrived at the same time too, wat a coincidence! do we had clay pot chicken rice, one with salted fish and one without salted fish. the one wit salted fish seems to be more appetizing. I jz got my salary bank in and extra cash oso! so that dinner was mine. hmn its fishy u know KW so quite,mayb due to this morning april fool drama series? but then har! i kenot tahan he keep on showing fishy gesture to CM and "yum yum siew" (smile nastily)!!! CKW!!!!! nie nak kena la nie! nvm today is ur day! tmrw shall be mine! MUAahhahaha

Hehehe we headed to Uptown Baskin Robin n ordered Banana Royale and Brownie ala Mode. Tis one is KW treat one...hehehe he oso geting Xtra cash in short period of time *hint*

oh i almost forget to call buddy Ry! i call him, the he rejected my call! woah! class eh?? then sms came in says that "S0ry press wr0ngly". hmn then call ry bek, he say he was jz now in middle of sms so press wrong button when the call came in. Oh i stil owe him a treat, so i ask him wan baskin robin o not, since someone says he bday yesterday. He as usual...."dun wan". So i told him i will go over to 6th to SETTLE d RM100.

after send CM bek, i headed to 6th, went to bek of 6th since its requested by Ry, actually har...he lazy wan to walk to the front lobby la. well Ry came out n i pass him d photo DVD and oso BR voucher. hehehehe...voucher only la y must u b so happy? ask him wan o not? "DUN WAN". Hehehe he oso kena April fool trick! kakakaka soli...can't missed the chance of it though 2 more hours left....

we chatted for some time mostly is all Ry punya topic! huh...dun under estimate Ry being quite, he can talk alot one ler! he is like someone i know *hint*... hehehehe (paiseh). talking 2Ry in person is more acceptable than thru phone. thru phone he sounded like stone n like triad big bro! but in person he so lively bcoz he always smile out of simple words n out of no reason! after some chit chatin i think ned to go bek ady la...he oso ned to study. So it was a long day! and no fever!

I went to burn to joss paper and i saw this idiot man with his pregnant wife n small kid, wan to burn joss paper also. He throw 3 packets of joss paper to burn. Let me clarify, in plastic! yes, burning plastic. Idiotic! then the pregnant wife seems to enjoy the fume and aroma from the burnt plastic. He then took the leftover joss paper on the wife's hand n simply throw in....and at the same time, ask the wife to throw away all the candles, dun wan bring back home. Aiyo then keep on saying lets go lets go.... the wife mention qing ming for his mother n grandparents. Aiyo, wat a good blessing the son-in-law of those departed will get leh with this type of attitude?!?! wat ever la...i dun agree n i dun think so i ned to know hahahaha
