Deck the Halls

It’s Christmas time again!

After spending almost all of my Christmas holidays alone for the past few years (the loneliest time was the dinner I had at Old Town White Coffee, which was my own choice. A friend did invited me to a club in KL, but I was not in the mood to go. I now will be spending X’mas with my family & relatives back home. Be it KK or Ranau, it doesn’t even matter to me anymore. As long as I am surrounded by family. In KK, I can spend time with Eden (baby nephew) & a little dose of Shenaiah. She’s a handful.

Christmas Memories

The Christmas that I remember back home was, an invitation to Nenek Umpil’s house or cousin Brielly’s house. Recently I found out from Geni that it is also Nenek Umpil’s birthday! There was also a Mr. Santa Claus with candy in his red sack at Nenek Umpil’s. But again this is when I lost a pair of brand new AirWalk shoes. Bohoo...

Another reason why I love December is because it is also my birthday month! And my cake is always beautifully decorated with Christmas Santa Décor, X’mas trees and other ornaments. Sometimes I can even get an ice-cream cake (twice that I remembered)!

One X’mas, I bought almost all of my colleagues a Christmas present, T-shirt for the guys and bracelet for the girls.

My only wishlist:-

• A black low cut converse shoes RM149.00- waiting for a discount. I just can’t bring myself to fork out that money since I can have a similar pair of shoes (Northstar) for RM30.00 which I have bought twice before.

P/S: The lousiest secret santa I ever had was 2-boxes of candle sticks, the plain white one. I melted them and mixed dye in them for my witchcraft candle. – Thanks a lot Deb. Haha..

December

I am determine to make this December month a Good if not a Great month!

De-cember

I believe that i need to surround myself with positive thinking people. As i am easily influenced by the good and the bad.

The worst thing about No-vember is that my colleague asked me to write a wish for Ck & the wife on the wedding gift (a photo album), i was even thinking of not attending the wedding at that time. But a lot of people depended on me on the transport & make up. As if that wasn't bad enough, another colleague asked me to write a another wish on the card to be attached to the gift!

I did all those with a heavy heart.
I went to the wedding with a shattered heart (duii..).
I congratulate the wife & posed for photos with a smile on my face.
All the time wishing that i was the one drinking champagne instead of red wine & Cognac.

Today, i saw a ring on his finger.
The definite repellent for me as a constant reminder that he is now off limits.

Why Not Anybody Else?

Why is it always me who fell hard?! I thought Capricornians are supposed to be sure footed on uneven grounds..

A New Opportunity

A friend of mine called me up last Thursday during the Completion Dinner for my paint company project.
Letting me know that his company is looking for someone to fill up an E&I position in his company. The friend is also a new employee for this O&G company. I AM interested, and here comes the BUT:-

1) I will be doing an Electronic & Instrument workscope- which i know nothing of and i almost failed my Electronic subject in college.
2) I am waiting for my bonus to come out early next year to pay for my Japan trip (28/4/2011-11/5/2011)
3) We were promised a company trip next year (also the same time frame as my personal Japan trip...shieeet!!)

Reality is..I can't really say anything since i didn't submit any resume to him yet. Forgot my external HD at home and my resume is in it.
I mean i gotta stop being scared and just do it! Yes i am scared.
It is not about ME anymore. I have to think for my family. Well i have my brother to think about my family. But.. no!! Let me have that reason for me to go move ahead.
CK's getting married next weekend.. My boss is probably planning a trip without me anyway.. Reasons to go and grab just that opportunity in the ass. This is the transition that i have always wanted.

Short Weekend Holiday, Facial & Books

I will be going to Penang this Hari Raya Haji holiday which conveniently falls on the weekend (Monday will be another day off). This time it is not for a friend's wedding. This time it is with my colleagues. Not all of them of course.

I am a little excited about it 'coz this time it's with a different group of people :)

What's new with me.

Well, my project of a paint factory is basically completed, except for some variation order work.
Now i have another small project in Nilai, Negeri Sembilan which is just around the corner from the huge bundle market. I used to follow my cousins and went there to buy cheap clothes (for them, not me).

Now i only catch up on TV shows on the weekend. I don't really watch it anymore.
Not even my pc.
Now i am on my 3rd book of George R.R. Martin.- A Storm of Sword.
Book Three: A Song of Ice and Fire (book series)

I love them. Just wish i have someone to discuss it with because i have a few questions that i need answers. i can read till 2am! With the little screen of my iphone.
I have also been frequenting beauty parlors to do my facials. And i think it shows! I've got a few positives comments from colleagues and friends. On my recent trip back to KK, my uncle even asked me if i had Botox done!!??... huh..?

Everytime i went to do my facials, these people keep persuading me to buy their product. And i have managed to fend them off. I kept reminding myself that i have my Japan trip next year and i need to save money!! MORE MONEY!!.
