I tell u… some M’sians shouldn’t be allowed to drive AT ALL!!!! GAH!!
I dunno if it’s just my bad luck or what… but my car kena hit again!!!
There I was, minding my own business, driving home from class on the Sprint highway. I was in the fast lane and was just passing this other Wira on my left when the STUPID MORON decided to change lanes into my lane without even bloody looking first!!! So, hit my car lar! Thank gawd he didn’t suddenly swerve 100% into my lane or else I think I wouldn’t be here writing this right now. Some more after that, when I moved into the slow lane, trying to decide if I should stop and check my car, the bloody idiot moved to the slow lane also (behind me) and started tail-gating me!!! I was like WTF!! So I slowed down even more. We were passing by a Shell station and I just slowed down to see if he’d pass me and turn into the station. He did and stuck out his hand as an apology. I just GLARED at the stupid bugger coz he’s one of those ah bengs who do their car up all ugly with stickers and loud exhaust and think they’re the next Michael Schumacher on the road. GAH!!
THAT was a scary incident, man. If he’d swerved into my lane 100%, I think I would’ve hit the divider and goodness knows wat might’ve happened then :-O
Everyone, pls be very careful when u’re driving on the streets coz u not only have to look out for criminals but u’ve also got to look out for stupid, careless, irresponsible drivers who are selfish asses and think of nothing but themselves on the road.

Mich gave birth to a baby girl yesterday afternoon!!! Wow, the first of my friends to have a baby!!! Her name’s Kimberly Anne Anantha…
Congrats to the happy family!!!
This Saturday is Chien Li’s wedding. I’ve been given the honour to be one of her ji muis, hehe, so I have to be at her house by 8am!!! :-O So early!!! Which reminds me, the woman hasn’t sent out the roles/responsibilities of her ji muis AND a map to her house!!! ACK!!!

Hmph… recruiters who call me up and are more interested in getting MY contacts to fill a position rather than helping me get employed annoy me tremendously!!

The perpetual dilemma…
“WHAT AM I DOING WITH MY LIFE?????”
I just want a job that will give me a sense of fulfilment and achievement at the end of the day. A job that’s meaningful and preferably will contribute towards the betterment of society or the animal kingdom. Doing work just for the sake of contributing to the employer’s revenue just isn’t sufficient anymore.
What difference am I making in the world?
What good am I doing?
How am I contributing to my kids’ future (if I have any)?
How am I making myself a better person by doing what I’m doing everyday?
Not expecting to come up with some miracle cure for AIDS or anything huge like that lar. Just want to do something good, regardless of how small it is.
I am definitely not destined to obtain tremendous wealth, with this type of mindset. Not that I’m looking for it. Though it would be nice to afford one or two luxuries once in a while.
Beggars can’t be choosers. I think I’d take a paycut doing what I enjoy and being able to contribute some good over a high-paying high-stress corporate job.

According to the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), I am the following:
- Introverts are career specialists who tend to use their skills in a narrower range but in greater depth.
- Sensing types like their career to be continuous. They see their career as a ladder and look for the nest step based on the experience they already have.
- Feeling types adopt personal growth as their goal. Whether they leave or stay in a job depends upon whether they feel like doing so.
- Judging types make plans for their careers. They hesitate to make moves that are not in their original plan without first establishing a new plan.
Which describes me as follows:
- Detailed
- Conscientious
- Traditional
- Loyal
- Patient
- Practical
- Organized
- Service-minded
- Devoted
- Protective
- Meticulous
- Responsible
Which basically pretty much sums up what my ex-boss had to say about me as an employee (except for the one in red!)

Spent most of the weekend doing housechores… laundry, ironing, sweeping, mopping, clearing out my room. Finally got rid of that big Dell box that was sitting in the middle of my room from the time when I cleared my stuff from MNC.
Man, ironing is such tiring and hot work!!! Was wondering just now, how come I have a stiff, achy back today and I just realized it must’ve been from all that ironing! o_O
Still job hunting… anyone got any leads????? Systems implementation… pre-sales consultant… project lead…
Or just gimme the $$$$$ to run an animal sanctuary!!!
Ahahhahahaha!!! Wishful thinking eh…
:-p

Yesterday was not a good day.
Event #1 : not good outcome
Event #2 : left me with a very guilty feeling
Event #3 : getting stuck in traffic plus getting lost and paying toll just to get myself out of goodness-knows-where was not very fun
Event #4 : was probably the best among all events — free hotel food complete with performances. Unfortunately, I was totally out of place due to wrong dress code… but this couldn’t be helped.
Event #5 : all the above resulted in me being totally zonked out by the time #4 was over (I left early, didn’t stay till the end). But still went out to salsa… though the mind wasn’t with the body. Dozed off when I was sitting outside, taking a break coz it was like a sauna in the club. Woke up with a start and realized that was not a wise thing to do… especially in a public area with strangers walking all around.
The night ended on a bad note… sigh…
Am still a bit out of it now…
The next few weeks will be some of the most difficult weeks in my life, I’m anticipating… a time for self-reflection, realization, and discovery. And hopefully I’ll make the correct decision.

Was on the way to Palace of the Golden Horses yesterday night. The jam from KL — Jln Tun Razak — Sg. Besi highway was HORRENDOUS!!!
So there I was, stuck in the jam, near the Turf Club roundabout when this SILVER TOYOTA CAMRY on my right decided to change lanes.
See, I’m fine with ppl wanting to change lanes as long as they do so at the correct opportunity i.e. when there is sufficient space and the traffic is clear. BUT this ASSHOLE, I was just passing by him when he decided to switch lanes, just like that, without using his stupid BRAIN (if he has any) to look out for traffic on his left!!! Duh! It’s a bloody traffic jam! How can u NOT see cars EVERYWHERE??!!!
So he hit my back bumper, and post-accident check, there are now three LONG scratches from the side all the way to the back.
And you know wat’s even more aggravating???? THE BLOODY BUGGER DIDN’T EVEN STOP TO APOLOGIZE!!!!!!! He just sped off at the very next opportunity!!!!!! @#$%^&*!!!!!
So if you see a SILVER TOYOTA CAMRY with the license plate WKR 7150, u better watch out.
I hope the stoopid moron totals his stoopid car.
GAH!
*fuming*

I just found out today that…
- If a motorist/motorcyclist (not sure if it applies to both) runs a red light and u’re moving coz it’s green on ur end and u hit the said motorist/motorcyclist, YOU are in the wrong coz if u argue and tell the cops that the traffic light was red on the other side, the cops would ask u (1) How do u know that the traffic light is red on that side of the road? And if u answer, “Coz I can see the traffic light from where I am”, the cop would accuse u of not paying attention to ur own direction/road, which is why the accident happened in the first place, and (2) if u want to make any insurance claims, the cop would fine u 300 bucks before u can make a police report.
- If u hit a motorist/motorcyclist who doesn’t have a valid driver’s license and if s/he sustains injuries, it is YOUR fault for hitting into him/her even if the non-licensed driver is in the wrong.
The above incidents were relayed to me by my friend.
Huh… someone tell me if it makes SENSE???

Hhhmmm… why can’t ppl say what they mean, directly and straight-to-the-point?? At work, at home, with friends, with acquaintances… basically, in any situation lar.
Saves a lot of time, misunderstanding and confusion, no?
