Upset

My dear blog, it has been a while since I came here. So many things I want to share but there are so many things that need my attention : work, part time activity, leisure activity, study, wedding preparation etc. In fact I do not have enough sleep, not to forget 10 minutes activity with my precious dumb bell. Went to see doctor this morning for allergy medication..(filing is the most hated activity as my sinus is bad. Allergy reaction is there : dust. People must imagine my house is sparkling clean. Nope, you are wrong but purposely, I only swept away dust from the spot that I wanted to sit...hahaha. Do not bother about other areas.)

So, doctor checked my blood pressure. 100/60, quite low. I know why. Anyway, my blood pressure is always on the low side. Once a while, I feel dizzy and at times, I feel like flying away or about to fall. I remember this doctor that always worried about my bp. She asked me to watch my diet and suggested dairy products. Following her suggestion, I drank milk and ate cheese daily. So, there was an improvement on my bp. Now, it happened again and I expected it to last till my nephew's wedding reception and my exam. And since I am trying to lose weight, I would try my best not to take dairy products. I want to look beautiful.

Last time my blood pressure reached 137/80. This was during medical check-up last month. Thoughts of pain from having my blood drawn for test really pressured me. So, bp increased a little bit but doctor told me it is normal, especially for people at my age. But I told him it is on the higher side as normally around 120.

Oh dear blog, I feel much better after writing about anything...I was really upset this evening but not to that extent, it really hurting that much. What is this compared to one year anxiety and sad thing is I could not bring myself to share with my parents. Thanks blog..I was so sad just now. Now the sadness is being taken away.

Good night. I would come back to share my experience with you again.

Office view

Penat berkemas file ( tak banyak manapun, tetapi malas macam biasa), akupun tangkap gambar ni.

Betul tu, ofis baru ni bersebelahan dengan hotel dan shopping complex. Tengahari aja, aku turun meninjau department store di situ untuk mencuci mata. Hati tak tahan melihat sale tapi aku kuatkan semangat. Cantik barang-barang tetapi kena ingat keadaan diri.

Persiapan Kenduri Sambut Menantu

Jangan confuse lak, kakak aku yang nak menyambut menantu. Seminggu dua ni, baru aku berkejar menampal sticker pada botol yang akan dijadikan door gift. Alhamdulillah, tinggal satu kotak lagi. Sambil menatap citer korea online, sambil tu aku menampal sticker. Oh ya, jangan lupa tengok citer "I Miss You". Wow, citer ni memang power sampai aku tangkap leleh menonton setiap episod. Kelaslah hero dia berlakon dengan perasaan dalaman dia. Enterframe sat. 

Sambung balik persiapan door gift. 

Selepas ni, nak letak gula-gula dengan dodol dalam botol dan lekatkan reben. Untuk bunga telur, kakak aku sudah siapkan, Mengumpat PG sikit, beria-ia dia cakap nak suruh panggil dia kalau nak tampal sticker. Tetapi aku tak panggilpun, senang wak pelan-pelan sorang. Dia bagi alasan aku cerewet tapi sah, mesti malas punya. Memang Minah gabra, kalau kalut, mula lupa. Janji hilang ke laut...hahaha.

Bunga telur pula, kakak aku sudah siapkan. Dia bercuti di Oman, bosan duk sorang-sorang di rumah menunggu husband pulang kerja, dia buatlah satu demi satu. Caterer sudah ditempah, tinggal yang remeh lagi kot. Kad kahwin belum lagi diedarkan. Katanya aku in charge bahagian door gift serta satu lagi tugas penting masa kenduri. Aku rasa aku mesti curi tulang juga...masa kenduri tulah. Time tengahari memang wajib tidur unless aku buat keja office, mesti khusyuk, tak ingat ngantuk.

Botol yang ditampal sticker disusun semula dalam kotak.

Botol yang siap ditampal sticker.

Cakap pasal kenduri kahwin ni, teringat pak cik akupun akan menyambut menantu juga minggu depan tetapi aku tak sempat menjenguk lagi. Cuma dia rileks sedikit berbanding persiapan perkahwinan anaknya yang terdahulu disebabkan hotel sediakan segalanya. Cuma hanya membuat hantaran dan juga edarkan kad perkahwinan. So, okaylah kot tak jenguk-jenguk. 

btw, ini pesanan penaja buat PG yang akan sempat membaca blog ini, jangan lupa bawa balik thumbdrive, dah banyak file akak nak songlap ni.

Mood - Malas Sedunia

Mood - malas nak masak, bancuh air, kemas rumah.

Living room dah jadi bilik dobi. Bertimbun baju menunggu untuk dilipat dan digosok. Basuh aja rajin.

Perut lapar tapi malas nak membeli dan malas nak masak. Kalau dulu, aku goreng bawang putih, bawang besar, tumis lada lumat siap-siap. Nak masak, cuma cedok bawang putih yang ditumis, bawang besar yang ditumis dan juga lada lumat (tengok resepi)..  Tetapi kemalasan itu semakin besar. Akhirnya, aku masak satu jenis masakan untuk 4/5 hari, cuma panaskan dalam microwave bila nak makan.

Air minumanpun macam tu. Walau teringin nak minum kordial tapi malas nak buat air gula, nak bancuh dan nak basuh jug, Dan melihatkan banyak sangat tumbler tupperware(cuma ada 2/3 botol aja...hehehe), siap-siap aku bancuh air minuman dalam setiap tumbler tupperware, cukup kot utk seminggu. Teringin aja, buka peti ais dan ambil tupperware tu. Macam-macam jenis air yang hanya menunggu untuk diminum. Siap minum, kumpulkan aja dalam singki. Genap 3 hari atau tunggu hujung minggu, aku clearkanlah singki...hahaha. Seperti kata PG, kemalasan tahap Gaban.

Air yang siap dibancuh dalam bekas air. Dulu, aku duk pikir relevant apalah tumbler tupperware banyak-banyak. Bukannya ada anak ramaipun yang nak bawa ke bekal. Ingat kalau balik kampung sekali ni, aku nak tibai aja bekas sir tupperware mak aku. Diapun campak merata aja. Bolehlah aku utilizekan macam ni. Dari bersepah merata kan.

Job Hopping

Today is my first day at new working place. Changing job becomes my norm within 2/3 years. The longest period I served company is 7 years. Some interviewers are telling me that I do not have credibility coz I always job hopping.

Well, understand their point of view but I feel like telling them, if you think so, why you must conduct interview for managerial post? Shouldn't you do internal promotion or the current staff is not fit to be the manager? Why is it like that? Is it due to poor staff development at your place, lack of training, your poor judgement in hiring talented people or poor supervision skill of your top and middle management? If you do not do internal promotion, do you expect people would remain at your working place forever? And the same things go to me.

There are pros and cons. Sometimes, when you think that the development of your skill stop there, then it is time to get more exposure at other place. And there are times, when you need to move as other place provides you with bigger opportunity for you to be exposed to higher level and job skill/development. My view, why not? If I want to have an easy life, I can just stay at one place but then I won't have rich experience in different sector although my pay is not getting anywhere. It really depends on what you want and what the company can offer. 

I always strive for job enrichment and satisfaction. Besides, my level of curiosity is high...I always wonder what's happening in this sector and how it relates to my particular field. Then I have to explore by joining them. The employer always worried that the trained staff would leave and it burdened them to find competent staff but trust me, it is always case of on the job training and you find your own way to survive. In many places that I worked, it is our own initiative and the training provided to you almost none. But one thing that I always ensure is to leave a proper handover and ample guidance to whoever taking my place.

Anyway, I am happy to be back at my old working place. I was there before for a very short stint before moving back to my hometown. Now I am back in KL/Selangor. It seems my jodoh with this company a long way to go. Nice to meet old faces who still remember you though three years have passed. Best thing, the office is adjacent to shopping mall. Isn't it a wonderful place for ladies to work?

People Everywhere

Bercakap pasal my part time job jaga kanak-kanak ni, memang tak boleh larilah dalam berhadapan in sticky or gross situation.

No matter how enjoyable it is, but still I found it tiring running and shouting after boisterous kids. Trying to discipline them is quite a task but now I found new weapon. Kids always enjoyed being in this ball sections. This is the place where they are free to do physical activities without parents' supervision. But they forgot that we are here to monitor them, instead of parents. They really love it there, climbing and jumping from ball pit to the web anetc. Can't blame them because I also wish that I can jump into the pool of balls, lying there, hiding beneath the balls, rolling inside but still we have to take care their antics. And I am also getting tired of collecting the balls that are splattered around.

So, I told them if they did not keep it neat, or still sitting on top of slide and jumping from them or throwing at people, then I would close the area within 10 minutes. Wow, they really listen and of course, there are suckers among them(macam kat office); they are really good in "bodek" you.  They do all the things you want. At the end, they would be the ones who's breaking the rules. Of course, I am torn but still rules are rules. Cuma I did not scream at the top of my lungs. Nicely asked them to follow my order.

Some kids really like running and jumping. It would be bad if they entered this place after eating. Last Friday, one kid suddenly puked in front of tv area. The stinking smell filled up the area. All of us stunned...like not again. It became chaotic. One person has to restrained him at that place so he won't spreading the mess. But he resisted us and cried and cried. Another had to stop the kids from passing by the area but two kids somehow walked through it and fell onto it. Now 3 kids need to be kept there. With all the noises from other kids and the pungent smell, some of us rasa nak muntah. Finally, the mother came and cleaned him but surprisingly, she still left him to play inside. After the cleaner cleaned the area, the bad odor still remained. That was the time that I could not wait to go back.

Before this, there are kids who pooped and urinated in the play area. To be the witness of kid's shit coming out from his pants. Horrifying experience. I wanted to be as far as possible but still has to go there to ask the kids to stand still while waiting for the mother and set-up barricade so nobody came near the area and stepped on it. Really hate when this happened but I could not understand the parents. If your kids are not toilet trained, why can't you wear them diapers? Of course, we do not have to wash them and clean it but still it is troublesome to others.

Last week, kid's diaper became soiled. I wonder why the mother never bother to check it before checked in. So, the kid took it out and we watched in horror. Since other co-workers are young guy, I have to take the kid to toilet while waiting for the parents to come. Seeing the kid playing with soap and water, i rushed in to put on pampers and take him out. In the midst of putting on diaper (he is in standing position), he pee on my shoes. I was like....oh no.

Even though it is a free service, parents also should be responsible and follow the rules. And if your kids are not toilet trained or wearing diapers, be more sensible to ensure no messy situation arise. Other kids might feel incovenienced of these incidents. Think of others. And some parents, they really do not understand meaning of queeing up.  They are matured adults but set a bad example. Simply cut the line and I do not get it why some find it that difficult to complete the form and thus delay the registration process.
