bloody vogons!

In the beginning,the universe was created.This made a lot of people very angry it was widely regarded as a bad move.........

Got up early this morning.Earlier than usual.Shu had an interview scheduled at 10am at a place about 5 minutes from my house.I wanted to drive him there so I woke him up and got ready.We spent the whole of last night preparing what ever he needed for the interview so while he had to prepare the papers and resume,I helped iron his shirt and pants and looked for a tie that would suit the shirt.Haha!It was hilarious!Coz I'd be running after the cats in between getting things done ^_^

We got to the building and headed upstairs.There was a girl sitting in the waiting room when we got there.She was waiting for her friend who was also there for the interview.Thinking that it was just gonna be a short interview,I sat down beside her.More people arrived later on.Finally,the dude who conducted the interviews peeked out to us and told us to go do something coz it was gonna take a long while till they were done with the interviews.He was right.The whole thing lasted for a good 4 hours!

I went to join my mum and brother at some coffee shop at the other end of town about 15 minutes after Shu went for the interview.Then,I went home and got some stuff and waited for Azim to get ready coz he was heading out to the mall to hangout with some friends so I had to drive him there.I headed over to the building to get Shu but I had to wait a little longer coz he had lots more things to do.

I ended up talking to that girl who was there earlier.She was waiting for 2 of her friends as it turned out.She lives in Kerinchi and she too is working for the company whom had people over for interviews.She said she was working at Maybank before this and the job sucked coz she was working 12 hours a day,6 days a week.She's supposed to just work half a day on Saturdays but she said she always ended up leaving at 4pm-ish.She said she couldn't take it so she quit.

Good move.I would have done the same.Haha!

Finally,Shu was done with his interview.We had lunch over at Devi's coz I refused to move the car (coz the fuel tank was close to empty :p ) That was one hell of an interview coz he had to do lots of test including an IQ test and a typing test.Interesting.

The thing about this job (that Shu applied for) was that Farah (Aunty Intan's daughter) managed to brief him a few days before so Shu knew what to expect.Also,unlike my job,he doesn't have to bring home his work.It's pretty good for sanity sake ;)

KA-BOOM!

Me likey me freedom very much ^_^ but sometimes it drives me mad :/

The truth is,Shu and I kinda like our lives the way it is now.......working but not over doing it.We have time and that's the thing we are slaves to.Extra time.It's contagious!

Boys and girls of every age......wouldn't you like to see something strange?
Come with us and you will see........the fun-ness of being free :D

I am addicted to driving the 2 cats mad.My hamster included.
I am addicted to finding ways to improve my students' English.
I am addicted to make-up.Especially HD Translucent Powder(s).

*Note to self:Do NOT bother going into Shins or SaSa for make up coz it's better to just get them from their respected counters.

*Was at the Make Up Forever Professionals counter the other day.I am so gonna get stuff from there real soon ^_^

P.S. :Good luck for your job interview tomorrow,Love! <3

far away land

It's strange how I have a job but I don't feel like I'm working much.It's kinda good coz I'm the type who'd get bored easily so doing something over and over again can kill me.Then again,I seem to have way too much time at hand.Shu suggested that I work on my make-up skills.He's right.This is the time for me to get my hands on as much make-up products as possible and I should work on my skills right away.

*Actually,I am rather picky when it comes to make-up artists so I'm trying to work on getting it done myself rather than having to hire anyone for the wedding.......or whenever necessary :p

So yeah,I've been hopping from one mall to another,one store to another,one brand to another.I'm beginning to see that getting make-up products from the states is so much cheaper.Thing is,I need them ASAP.I can't wait for anyone to go over to the states to get them for me from my brother.

BTW,today is Eno's birthday.Well,it's actually on the 4th.I had a good time laughing with him over a telephone conversation.He said he got us all a whole bunch of stuff *including the American Football helmet I asked for lat year ^_^* So I told him that I might just need to post things to his address there in the states and get him to post them over IF I ever start shopping online AGAIN.

Hahahahahahahaha!

I am super excited about this year's Chinese New Year!Actually,I tend to get this way every year coz I just lurve lion dance performances and I lurve the color red.Also,this year is the year of the Tiger so it would be a plus point if I'll ever catch a Tiger Dance performance ;)

traffic jams

Traveled all the way to the mall near my house just to get some stuff yesterday.In the end,the thing we were really looking for was actually at the mall near the place we stay :/ It's not that we underestimated the mall or what ever.It just never occur to us to look for it there in the first place.

Silly!

The surprisingly awesome we deal that went on at the mall yesterday was the Schwarzkopf Professional booth which were selling off all the professional products for either BUY 1 and get another item FREE OR BUY 2 items and get 3 items FREE.It does sound super unbelievable but the thing is,as weird as this may sound,I do not use as many Schwarzkopf Pro products as much as I used to.So that would totally be taking up space eventhough it was an awesome deal.

Shu ended up getting a hair gel and I got meself a shampoo and we only paid for my shampoo which was a couple of bux more expensive than the hair gel.It was pretty cool coz I'd usually end up buying those products from hair salons *which I already did some time last month!*

Anywho,we watched Case 39 the other day and it scared the shit out of us.Initially,I was a bit reluctant to watch the movie coz it starred Renee Zelweger but in the end we ended up watching it anyways and despite the fact that she looked weird in the movie,the movie itself was really spooky.

Coz the other night,we tried to scare ourselves by watching the Thai horror flick Haunted Universities but ended up not entirely disappointed,just a bit annoyed by the fact that it really wasn't that much of a horror flick at all :/

The Something,Something,Something Dark Side by Family Guy was fuh-ney!Hahahahahaha!

spent the last 24 hours of my life TRYING to finish marking papers.......

I failed.I got loads of help from Shu though......I failed.I just couldn't do it.I'd go over one paper and get annoyed and stressed out and it would take me some time (lots of time) till I go over the next paper.Sometimes,I do feel that it's unfair for me to get upset with these kids coz they didn't get any form of proper education before they came to the city......or did they :/

Then again,maybe it wouldn't have been so bad if they actually bothered to take the initiative themselves to learn the language.I have no idea how to make them understand the depth of every single thing they do here and now and the damages it would cost them in the future......

Just fucking read some English books or articles or papers or something!

I miss Kecik and Snow Bear and Bedah.It's not hard to understand them or make them understand me eventhough we don't speak the same language :/
