A Conversation (could it be call that?) that I have to endure today:
Me: Hello, *** :).
Woman: Hello, Puan J please.
Me: Sorry she is with a customer at the moment. Any messages?
Woman: I would like to speak with Puan J please.
Me: She is with a customer now, I'll ask her to call you back, is that ok?
Woman: No I'll be going out soon, and I don't want to be disturb at the hospital. I want to ask her about my shipment from Japan, I want to know how it is now.
Me: Mmmm shipment from Japan, do you have the awb number? Maybe I...
Woman: (cuts off) No I want to speak with J just for a while, call her let me talk with her
Me: But she is with a customer right now....
Woman:(cuts me off) Well I'm a customer too
Me: Yes but...
Woman: Nevermind la. (hangs up)
I'm a customer too....my foot.

Cold and Not in the Mood
Exam on the 16th of February, the PTD exam. It was ok I guess, some questions were hard as I never heard about it before, and some well, I was able to answer but not sure my answer was correct or not and some I just tembak. It was raining and very windy, so it was quite cold, at some point I was shivering a bit. Glad when it was over and then I walked back home in the rain, holding on tight to my yellow umbrella, just in case it was blown out of my hand. Now, the only thing to do is wait for the result and for any other letters :).
Met a course mate taking the same exam, found out what she had been doing since convo, found out we were in the same boat, still looking for jobs. I wish you luck! Also met a new friend but didn't manage to exchange numbers or emails, but I guess that is how it is, you meet people, some will be in your address book, some just in passing. But she does look familiar, don't know where I have met her before, but she is friendly, that is good.
At home, didn't feel like eating rice, so instead, I surfed the net, chatted with a friend, surf some more. After a while, went to search for a warm place (very cold because of the wind and rain), ended up sleeping in my room with my 2 cats to keep me warm or are they coming to me for warmth too? heheehe either way, I'm happy.
Yeah still awake at this time of night/day, just finished talking with Honey, I'm glad your team won :D. I just don't feel sleepy yet, maybe because of the nap hahaha. I guess I could do my work now, that would certainly make me feel sleepy, but I'm just not in the mood.

Drug User or a Crazy Man?
This morning, 2 police cars came by the office where I work. The police officers straight away went to the stairways just next to the office. There was a man there, living there. Someone (maybe that guy) put an old sofa there. That was the place, his place since last week, so my colleague told me. Since last week you say, and I only noticed him yesterday morning, after I bought my breakfast (my RM2.50 breakfast!), even then I only saw his legs.
I asked around the people gathering outside, there was only those from our office and the office above. It seems that the people from the office above have seen some syringes and thought maybe, there is a possibility, that its used for well to get high (drugs). I don't know as I didn't go around to snooping at the place after the guy was taken away by the police. But my colleague did (haha) and she said she saw a card bank. Hmm.
I did saw the guy being led away into the police car. He was thin, with dirty shoulder length hair, wearing a dirty t-shirt and shorts. He also had a change of clothes with him, I saw the police officer taking it and putting it away in the car boot. After seeing him being taken away, then I realize, thank goodness the ballet class for kids haven't started yet. There is a studio upstairs above the office, teaching ballet to kids and yoga and stuff to adults. The studio could only be reached by using the stairway. Thank goodness eh, I dare not think about what would happen if there were kids and that guy...hmm. Good news is that guy is not there anymore and no one is hurt. Yup!
That was the morning drama. Then work as usual. Lunch hour, went out, looked for new secondhand books hahaha, found none. After lunch, more invoices came *sigh*, asked for help with the attachments. Managed to print out some re-billing. More to do tommorow. Oh and the list to people to call has arrived. Then to do statement of account *sigh* Just typing this is making me tired, just thinking about it also makes me tired. But then, had a few laughs too, don't forget that :).
ps: Something wrong with the spell checking button, so for any spelling mistakes or grammar hahaha sorry :P.

New Prices, New Bedsheet
I don't know if because its after Chinese New Year or something else, but the prices just went up, 50 cents more for breakfast and lunch. Before, breakfast was Rm1.80 (this was last year) then it went up to RM2.00, ok it went up 20 cents but then, today buying breakfast it was Rm2.50. The amount given was still the same which is little so I was quite surprise (plus the girl didn't tell me the new price). I didn't buy lunch today at that place but I asked the new CS and she said lunch is now Rm4.00. Wow. I wonder if other shops are doing the same, charging more now. Oh well. Prices are going to be up, up, up, nothing I could do about it, but I still don't agree with them charging 50 cents more for the same amount that they give at RM1.80/Rm2.00.
Other stuff, last Sunday went shopping for new bedsheet hehehe, been bugging my Mom for it since there was a sale at Survey. And since I got the RM80 voucher, why not put it to good use :). So we went, looked around, I saw some at RM45 but the designs was..well...for kiddies :P (there was dancing cows, lips, eggs and cheeses haha). Then I saw a design that I could live with, flowers on red background. I checked the price, originally it was RM12+.++. After discount, it would be RM52.++. Yes!! I could get a new pillow and a bolster with that price and my voucher. So with the new bedsheet, a pillow (for sis) and a bolster, went to pay. Shock shock shock, when the actual price for the bedsheet AFTER discount was actually RM9+.++. UGH.
I could change to another cheaper bedsheet, but then again, I didn't like the design and I have Rm80 voucher, so...I bought it anyway. Besides, I won't be needing new bedsheet for a while now, and I paid most of the RM9+.++ with the free voucher :D. So that is it, my shopping spree of last Sunday.

Would it be so weird if I post a picture of my new bedsheet? ahhahaha.

Debts and Exam
So, I have received a letter saying that I'm to go to an exam this Saturday at one of the high school in my neighbourhood. The exam starts at 9 am till 4 pm, with rest in between of course hehhee. The exam is for the job of Pegawai Tadbir and Diplomatik (PTD not std hahahha :P).
Anyway, I'm glad I got called for 'something', at least its something. I'll do my best in that exam, as I do my best in everything.
This day too, I received a letter of warning hahaha warning from PTPTN, saying that I haven't made any payment as yet, so in 14 days from the date of the letter, if still no payment from me, they will take action!! But then if I already made payment, please ignore said letter :). Hmmm, no payment yet, true, so why wait any longer, just pay la my Mom say, so I did. I thought the 7 jadual of payment means I only have to pay for 7 years, but nope, I didn't read/count it properly, it was actually 10 years. So I pay starting now, following the jadual thing, then when I'm 33 years old, I'll be debt free...YEaH!! O.o. I better start paying more now. Sheesh. I paid for 6 months by the way, 6 months..2 months in advance hahahhaha. I better cut back on the snack food :P.

Fave Quotes from SATC
Well some of it hehehe, I have work to do so can't surf for more, will do soon though hehehe:
Carrie's answering machine message: Hi. I'm not here but my shoes are, so leave them a message
Carrie: Maybe our mistakes are what make our fate. Without them, what would shape our lives? Perhaps if we never veered off course, we wouldn't fall in love, or have babies, or be who we are. After all, seasons change. So do cities. People come into your life and people go. But it's comforting to know the ones you love are always in your heart. And if you're very lucky, a plane ride away.
Carrie: It's over for me. Here lies Carrie. She had two loves and lots 'o' shoes.
Samantha: I'm a "trisexual". I'll try anything once.
Carrie: No matter who broke your heart or how long it takes to heal, you'll never get through it without your friends.
Taken from: http://quotations.about.com/cs/tvquotes/a/sex_city_top.htm
Miranda: I'm gonna ask you an unpleasant question now- why did you ever say yes?
Carrie: The man you love kneels down in the street and offers you a ring, you say yes that's what you do.
Carrie: Maybe some women aren't meant to be tamed. Maybe they need to run free until they find someone just as wild to run with...
Carrie: [offscreen] The only thing harder than choosing a spot for your wedding when you hate weddings is choosing a wedding gift for your friend who hates weddings.
Charlotte: What about a guest book?
Carrie: There's gonna be like eight of us there. There's no one to keep track of. I can't believe Miranda is getting married.
Charlotte: [holds up heart shaped dish] This is pretty!
Samantha: Oh, she'll hate that. Too domestic.
Carrie: And too bridey.
Samantha: Yeah, let's try not to piss her off.
Charlotte: Maybe we should just buy her a stapler, wrap it in brown paper and just smear some dog poo on it! Think she'd be comfortable with that?
Carrie: Fine. We'll get the dish.
Carrie: The most important thing in life is your family. There are days you love them, and others you don't. But, in the end, they're the people you always come home to. Sometimes it's the family you're born into and sometimes it's the one you make for yourself.
