its been some time since i went to a typical chinese dinner.. but this time round.. it has left me feeling pretty weird and curious about the perception of these village ppl..
so since i was invited by the ketua kampung.. so i went.. wondered awhile of what to wear.. but coincidentally all my formal cloths were at rawang.. so i went in a black t-shirt and jeans.. lol....
when i got there, i felt so under-dressed and although many were not in super good quality cloths but at least they had collars.. there were loads of ppl.. CHINESE ppl.. mostly cina ah peks and aunties.. so i met up with Dato' Leong (the ketua kampung) and got introduced to some other ketua kampung and some MCA ppl..
when i was about to sit at a random table, Dato' Leong dragged me to his table.. the VIP table.. i was like "shocked".. under-dressed, kid like and sitting with ppl who's probably 3-4 times my age.. lol.. ppl from the back was taking peeps to see who's this "fellow" who's sitting with all the VIP..
the program was super lengthy and without much entertainment.. basically the agenda was just allowing ppl from my table to go on stage and give speeches. of course.. EXPECT ME..
then for the opening ceremony, i've never seen so many ppl doing an opening ceremony in my whole entire life.. i think it was about 20-25 ppl up on stage to do a 2 sec opening ceremony.. lol... this sums up to a little observation i've been doing with rural area places ppl..
1. they like to be involve in activities which allows them to hold positions
2. they often give excessive attention and recognition to ppl with position although not relevant
3. they tend to grab as many position as possible
4. they take A LOT of pride in their positions
5. the higher their position, the louder they talk and criticize ppl
6. politicians more than often give empty promises (even if they've lost the election)
after that, there was a karaoke session where a mixture of good singers and self proclaimed good singers (horrible) came on stage to perform their songs.. before they had enough, the emcee cut them off for a lucky draw.. 400+ ppl and about 60-70 prizes. to my surprise, once the last draw's number was called, almost everyone stood up and started walking out.. NO good night or thank you speech... my goodness...
so, i also ciao la.. said good bye, thank you, shook some hands then balik rumah to sleep..!!!
tomorrow's last day of work.. gonna leave early back home if possible to do some cny cloths shopping + cut my messy hair.. the best part... HOLIDAY FOR COUPLE OF DAYS..!!! :)

the post without pictures..... again.....
for the past few yrs, i feel that CNY and many major celebrations has lost it's colors, excitement and meaning.. probably work, studies and all the other stuff have been cramping my up that i did not have time to take notice..
but this year, i've been having many pre CNY goodies.. :)
1. free hardware -> i went over to one of my estate's supplier to get some hardware to do up my pond as i just moved to this new place.. its an awesomely big but really shallow.. so i got ppl to dig and redo the whole thing.. so i got some tools, netting n some other stuff.. so happen, the boss was in a good mood n i wanted to pay.. but he told me not to.. was on him.. weee...
2. free dinner X 2 -> monday, supplier belanja dinner at a chinese halal hotel.. 10 course meal with only 7 ppl per table.. my goodness.. it was like super full... after that, went bowling.. man i'm so lousy at it.. my score was i think only 90+.. another dinner tonight.. got invited by the ketua kampung.. its like a chinese kampung having their CNY celebration dinner.. good time to get to know the kampung ppl in case i get into some trouble.. muahaha.. plus go check out if there's any chicks around.. :P
3. cheaper stuff -> thanks to my dog (messy) i needed to send my shoe to repair + buy a new shoe in dec.. i've been going back to the shop to take that shoe i think about 3 times.. and on the 4th time.. i got it.. only cost me 25 bcuks when it was suppose to be 35.. :) then i went to buy some other stuff for my house.. cabinet, toaster bla bla bla.. got to know this shop owner (aunty) and she gave me some really decent price.. :) weeee.....
4. free car service -> need i explain more?? CNY gift.. muahahahaha...
5. loads of oranges -> basically in my new estate, its me and one staff.. yesterday a new staff came.. but our suppliers gave us like 12 + 1 +1 (my pongkam) of oranges.. what to do.. go distribute to workers la.. they so happy.. lol....

after 7 months..
due to complains from multiple ppl that i've not been blogging so i'm start again.. hiahz.. dunno where to start.. so many things happened this 2 months..
but guess what.. today marks the date where i hit 7 months of working in the plantation sector.. a sector that noone would even imagine me going in to.. but i guess it was wrong.. its only 2 months more to either early confirmation (good performance) or regular confirmation (1year).. i need to start bugging my manager to confirm me ady.. lol...
anyhow, my new house's smaller than my previous one, smaller garden, smaller room, smaller kitchen but a really big pond.. hahaha... *lazy to upload pic coz connection super slow n unstable*
besides that i'm learning up the new estate.. tomorrow there will be a new staff coming.. indian guy previous from united plantation (suppose to be a very god plantation). i also not sure y he's coming to klk.. its like degrading his planter's status.. lol.. but nvm.. i'll hear from him tomorrow...
back to watching tv..

training treats
as for now, training is on... so what comes with the torture of sitting and listening for a whole boring day?? whats the benefit of being here and sitting for exams that might determine my future??
1. company - its seriously one of the nicest thing to have ppl who u can chat and go out with.. coz in the estate, there's only 2 types on ppl... employers and employees.. and its a big NO NO if the employers are too close with the employees..
2. places to go - guess what.. there's like shopping malls, food stalls, pasar malams, clubs/pubs all around.. its like heaven compared to the super kampung i have there in bahau.. my goodness.. its like wah... so many plac to go and stuff to do.. no more boring nights where its u, tv and computer with super slow connection..
3. chicks - its ipoh.. and its naturally filled with chicks.. guess what.. today, i had a lecture from the internal audit department.. one of the lecturer was like super chun.. (i'll try to get a pic and post it).. but the catch is.... SHE'S ADY MARRIED!!! damn... lol.... but then no worries.. loads of other flowers out there...
4. peneng trip - on the 13th, we had a half day class.. so ten me out of my madness propagated that we should go to peneng.. 9 of us then left for peneng after no discussion at 2pm.. since it was also a weekend, there were loads of cars.. but the worst thing was that we wanted to take the ferry.. but there was a jam at the harbor.. but still i wanted to take it..
sadly, some dude in the other car did not want to coz it seemed like we had to wait for a long time.. so he asked us to take the bridge which was way worse than jam.. for the time motion study, we were ady almost at the toll at the harbor at 4pm.. then we turned out and went to the bridge which was more than madness.. we arrived at peneng island at 6.45 or something.. but acually we could have reached peneng before 5.30 by ferry.. haihz... the worst idea we could have...
but then still, we had good food, a great time at feringgi pasar malam and went around.. we also wanted to go clubbing but was too sweaty after pasar malam so decided to head back and SLEEP!!! :)
me n tan bought a whole bunch load od DVDs to watch. weee...!!! :)
today, i had the internal audit exam.. it was madness... did not know how to do.. coz too much information cramp into one super long day session.. HELLO!!! tired one u know!!! how so sit for exam somemore at 4pm??!!!! but then!! dun care,, wont fail one la!!!

whats on my DID list..
sunday, 7th dec
woke up early to go to church in seremban.. after church, tried something new.. took ktm all the way to midvalley for shopping since the church's christmas musical mock up rehearsal only started at 7pm.. so i had 7 hrs of free time to loiter around..
was really long time since i took a ktm.. so yeah.. it was fun to see ppl doing stuff in the train, moving in and out.. bla bla bla... coz when i drive, i see nothing but other cars and the road..
so musical was pretty good.. but then i would say alot of professionalism but lack of emotional stuff to make ppl emo or sad.. coz ppl dont feel sad or what so ever... but if they could add emo effect in it.. i think it would have been much much more touching..
the actors and actress were very good and their voice.. my goodness awesome especially one of their narrators.. wah... her voice was like so powerful and awesome.. their choir... magnificent.. in harmony and power... was like so angelic..
by the time i got back home it was almost 12 midnight..
monday, 8th dec
woke up for work to only find a down pour of rain.. went to the muster ground at about 6.45am and waited for the rain to stop but it went the opposite and got really heavy.. so i want back hme to complete my hand over note before i leave for training and my assignment. got it done and had to go under the rain to print and settle somethings before leaving.
got it done by about 12 and took my shower before heading back to kl.. i wanted to stop to collect my leather shoes which i went to patch on a sole. but i forgot it was hari raya haji and the shop was malay.. so.. guess what.. CLOSED... haihz..
so went back.. was suppose to go cari rosemund in MV but then could not get her.. so i decided to go to sunway to get my hair cut.. then made my appointment with dorothy.
so went to 1U to meet up with dorothy.. bump into thin choy (some super old fren), sue, michelle (just got back from aus) and allysa. went to sushi grove coz sushi zenmai was so pack with ppl.. i cant post the pic of our food coz i dont have my cable with me.. although the price was bit above normal.. but the food was really good.. the sushi was like so good that u wont even have to dip it into sauce...
after that, i went to search for a replacement pair of leather shoe since i had to use it during training. found one shop with 70% discount.. cinni or something like that.. my shoes was like rm 310 - 70% = 93 bucks only.. lol.. i wanted to buy a nice slipper but then.. too bad.. out of my size.. sad...
got back, watched some tv and online... i miss big tv very badly.. lol... and astro... haihz...
tuesday, 9th dec
got up early.. took my shower then went downstairs to be glued to the tv with this movie called nancy drew.. a teen detective solving some cases..
it finished at about 8.30 so i rushed off to pyramid to skate.. rosemund suppose to come.. but mana tau 12 only come.. dui.. anyway, skated until about 2 then rushed to ipoh where i am now...
went to jj just now just to walk around since v had nothing to do. class starts tomorrow morning at 8!!! urh!!!! had a nice bowl of ABC.. so now its time to sleep....

he should dye his hair blonde..
all my life of watching football, i'be not seen such silly behavior as what christiano ronaldo did on the 68th min of the man city VS man united.
after getting a first yellow card for a lame tackle on shaun wright philips, ronaldo converted a beautiful header into a red card by using his hands to push the ball away for we're not too sure whats the reason.. probably he wanted to rewrite the mardona golden fist history.. but i guess seems like it failed...
2 min into extra time, joe hart (man city's goal keeper) did a superb save after a silly mistake. he went up to receive a corner kick not expecting that man united would gain control of the ball and quickly counter attacked. he ran from man united's goal mouth to merely tip off ryan giggs's long shot to deny man united to a 2-0 lead.
the game ended with a 1-0 win to man united thanks to rooney netting a fletcher shot that deflected off man city's goalkeeper.
time to sleep.. tomorrow leaving for estate at 3.30am to attend work at 6am... haihz...
