Chua Costa Rica

After spending a 5 star treatment in Putrajaya last week, I continued overstay in Costa Rica Port Dickson. I was selected to attend a workshop to prepare the syllabus for the service in varies scale. Knowing my inner side still needs to be overhauled, I just accept it and suddenly I felt guilty for blaming the Pullman after I reached Costa Rica. A “country” named hotel with the countryside condition.

The hotel is damn creepy, lousy and stinky. As you pass by the main road to PD town and near to a small church, you might see the white color building on your right hand stated Costa Rica, then move your car closer, your will see the building wall in dusty, unpainted column, mess and muddled with dead living landscaping.. Here is the place to discuss about the service matters, the question you’ve got to prepare and grounding the knowledge. I am thinking to back home now and watch Travel & Living. What is funnier is they just rebrand the hotel and renamed is as Le Paris…” bonjour..mal a latette “ Huhu hu …next rebrand is what ….Las Vegas? What a stupid joke


Chua

Dr. Chua is the boss now and that‘s the today’s headlines. After being molested by his rival, he won the top post. That’s shows nothing impossible in the power and influence battleship. Many observers said he has enough ‘air-supply” facing this straight fight game. Congrats

Pullman / Pull Me Man


Start my weekend by sending her to Pullman Putrajaya. I had a good jog this morning as I experience the greenery lush vegetation of Taman Botani. Good landscapes, and well maintained. I think most people in Putrajaya don’t really much appreciate what they have surrounding them. Without they realize, they have to spend thousands ringgit to get the world class infrastructures if they are not living in Putrajaya.
My wife is being a secretariat to a course in Pullman Putrajaya today. Mesmerized with Pullman Kuching which I stayed last year, I decided to follow her. Quite impressive in the first thought but there are few things that should be highlighted here. The room is quite small for a 5 star hotel and . This pebble washed hotel is designed by Raja Bahrain so you can feel the same effects as you reach at Sultan Mahmud Airport in Terengganu.With the reputation of the architect, you just simply can identify the Malay-archipelago design applied here. From my observation the use of too much finishing and materials on the wall ruined the exclusivity and high- rated rooms. In simple words, this hotel is overdone.
The lakeside view is impressive with the man made beach and the marine infra at least save the 5 star rating. Well Pullman is just next to Marine Complex here and I never think that Putrajaya will have all these ( the beach and a world class marine infrastructure), knowing this hotel a bit outskirt from the Putrajaya CBD .
Tonight is earth hour. I think the idea is nuts. Who brings the idea to switch off the whole mother nature for one hour when a robber just take a few second to rob a car ? I don’t quite agree with the idea but and I wonder why tonight, after we have so many days in the calendar. Hmm maybe it sounds selfish when you have a free vacation.
Ohh yeah… I and my wife attending The Malaysia Championship Water Ski and Wakeboard this evening. Even maybe I might be looked as a poser for this kind of sport but I believe doing something different can make my life more colourful. After reading a short biography of Eddie Vedder who is also a wake-boarder, for at least there is a connection between me and this watersport . Haaa awkward n freak-out.. But I do enjoy the view at least..
That’s the pullman story .Let's talk about the office. My boss last day at my section will be the end of this month. I can see the melancholy tune to the rest of staff in my section. They seem unhappy and gloomy. Same goes to me. I think he is quite responsible and he understands the flow of the works. But the only problem is only too much outstation for him. I believe that the capacity of big boss should be in the office most of the times. But he is good.
He will be transplanted (read :-transferred) to the policy and corporate management division and I believe that’s quite challenge for him as most people here realize that his outstation addictive a bit crucial. But this is good move for his carrier too. Congrats and long live the boss…I wish that he can put me together with him. En Myo..Pull me...Man…pls..

Rage Against The Man

Sometimes living in the stagnant routine makes your life miserable. From dusk till dawn and doing the same thing is like taming your brain capability. There are times you have to wake up and make your life colorful. I just looked at the red book on my black rack entitled ‘Changing Landscapes” by Alexander Peckham. The location of book is just like asking me to do something whenever my condition is very passive and dull the whole week.

There are times I think to get a new carrier and start a small business or else just fill the form and further study. That is the only option I have. Demotivated and demoralized.

Sabri said the business is not as usual, my former boss said that he just couldn’t stand to look the face; the new DG said the person you mentioned just goes by the book and I said he is the bloody moron. He is real factor of the landscape changed. He thinks he is good, perfect, show-off and flawless. My previous entry via this blog poorly describes that filth imbecile’s person. Hey man, don’t just blow your own trumpet. From past few days I just try demonizing and blackening this bugger’s name and it effects my emotion. Now I am taking curse as a sport. I am stockpile with hated now. What ever it is, life goes on. Life is just like yin and yang and picking up and dropping off. 2010 is just not mine.
I do realize that sometimes the hated shows your weakness and I am doing that now. Unexplained but I’m sure Sabri knew what I really meant and I guess he felt more pain than I am.
One of my subordinates realized the ‘down syndrome’ that facing me. She said that I have to boost myself because I have to show a good example to them. If I loose, everything’s going to be crash, boom, and bang. I need a very high impact painkiller or maybe I need a cube of ice or blue thunder weed.

As for my condemning of that bugger, I believe I have every right to do so. Retiring from the contract department simply means giving up authority. It does not mean I must abdicate my role as an officer. I simply open to be criticized but let it be in the right way.

Today, with the spirit of to boost myself, I and my colleague had decided to meet our Legal Advisor. . After some explanations about the project brief, he advises us the steps to mitigate the problem without any accusing or any doubt feeling towards us. He really understands the situation and gives us opinion to solve the problem. One good lesson I learnt today, the status quo doesn’t differ a person.Sometimes we just want to listen the in the good condition. Even the thing is bad but the way it be presented is good, some how rather it heals a lot. Human’s nature to listen the good thing. I really adore the way he speaks and respond to me even he knew that I am just a low level officer.


Down to earth and make us feel better.Thank you Dato..for make my day better today.

Earache - Suffercation


The lubricants of my nasal spray seem to finish by the end of this week. The clarinase tablets also seem to finish. I had been suffered of deft problem since last two month and finally I decided to refer to the clinic.

On March 15th, I went to a general clinic near my house seek for advise after suffering a deft about a month. The doctor then referred me to the Hospital Serdang as it is the nearest to my place. After taking a breakfast at the hospital cafeteria, I then stepped-up to the ENT specialist at the level 2. After along waits, then I manage to get some information with the one of the clerical staff. He said that my appointment will be on June and that’s means I will be a deft person for another 2 month. God grant me patience.

I then decided to go to Azzahra Hospital at Bangi which is near to an industry carnival organized by my office. After my number was blinked at the information board, I straightly asked for my appointment to see the doctor. From the duty board, I read the doctor in charged is Dr.Sahrir Samsuri, the ENT consultant. Unfortunately, the doctor only can be seen on Wednesday and Thursday. I stepped outside from the hospital and when to Annur the hospital next door. Again and again I had to wait for another day .The Mediviron Bangi also clearly frustrated me.
I said to myself if the last clinics I’ll be going after this also make me shit, I might cut the whole ear.

I drove to Kajang and lay-bayed at one of the corner somewhere Satay Hj Samuri, and suddenly I saw a huge building with the red –blue font stated KPJ Specialist. After a short registration, I then being asked to see the ENT specialist and guess what … the ENT specialist was Dr. Sahrir Samsuri. I then straight asked him where that he really consults because I saw his name at AzzAhra. Surprisingly his answered me that he works at all private hospitals in Bangi includes Azzahra, Annur and some other clinics like Mediveron. He also works at Hospital Serdang. Cisss….

What was happened to me that day left me flabbergasted? For the whole Hulu Langat district only one ENT specialist operated. Where have all the doctors gone? And till today, I am still suffering with my ear and wish that the “divine intervention” to heal my earache. Now I’m waiting for my next paycheck for the next appointment.

Biggest Loser Asia – Grand Finale

The overdue article...ok..

Biggest Loser Asia – Grand Finale
I was so excited yesterday to go home to watch the grand finale of Biggest Loser Asia even though it was a recorded programmes by the Hallmark. I told Mirza that she should follow how Martha losing her weight when I was in KPKT on Tuesday morning. Knowing that the Malaysian’s TV programs is damn lousy, full of shit and garbage all the time and some other reasons like the pressure I got from Yasmine who always wants to win her channel at Playhouse Disney, Biggest Looser Asia always been only favorite program to me and Zareene. I followed this reality TV since unsatisfied Leonore aka Goddess had been eliminated in the first round.


Talking about the grand finale, Sarimah was so drop dead gorgeous last night. Wearing the red blouse and shining great necklace she looks like Anna Hathaway in the Princess Diary. When the show started, she called all the contestants and surprisingly was Gary’s new appearance. My goodness!! How the hell he can cut his fat like this. Knowing the structure of this old bald buffalo was so damn fat last time, and now turned to be a skinny goat, inspired me to do a sit up now. He was being dropped out at after being accused by Christine being a bad playmaker. But last night he made a shocking scene by re-proposing his wife. He then told the audience that the wife was who encourage him to reduce weight. It was unplanned and it is not in the list of the itinerary. So drama king but it’s still okay as he deserves it after cut down the 75 kilo’s and it doesn’t ruin the whole program.

The final four were Martha, David, Carlo and Aaron. Aaron was quite familiar to Malaysian rockers as he is also formerly well known as the regular MC for the annual Malaysian Rock Festival, Rock the World and appeared in most rock n roll carnival all over Asia. The Eurasian lookalike guy dropped 50 plus kilos and that’s turned him looks like Fred Durst of Limp Bizkit. The winner of this race can be predicted earlier as we see the tough fight between Carlo and David. David, who is 83kilos shrunk is being crowned the king after won the debut fat cut race. And now you can see the king as a real Singh after he shrunk. Before this I was quite confuse what race he is. He came with his wealthy family and they are being packaged with the Team King David T shirt as though their knew David gonna win the competition. Another surprised from being giant and transform to normal Homo sapiens are Tony and Hafiz. Hafiz looks darker after lost 67 kilos of weight but still he doesn't deserve Christine because he is still unemployed. The most heavyweight human in Asia, Kevin looked better but the flabby things at his chin really distracting my view. Can you imagine this boy eating 2 kilos of pig every day with four packets of pizzas and never drink other than soft drinks and juices? Finally he managed to cut his weight at 70 kilos and now we can see he got the neck actually.What a wonder.

Congratulations to all of them. It s not about the USD 100 000 or the Renault Kaleos, but they do change their life to be a healthier person and a better looks. You guys really inspired me. But I wonder, can I cut the bundle of joy that I carry every day?

Things that shouldn't be

The boss had been resigned two month ago and even now none of the retirement occasion had been discussed among the big guns. It sounds unfair for a longing services boss. Is it a sign of regime hatred or it is the fate that should be happened?
A new path would be created by a new boss to achieve the same goal but maybe in different method. The journey is the same but flow is different. Finally a justice prevailed, said one of my friends.
The most important thing is not the personnel but the image that he carries. Most said that the first 13 years of our office establishment is full of humiliation, stress, argument but at the same time colored by many protocols event and fabricated success. Most events had been said credited to the top one but not the little fish. The immunity has gone and everyone now is equally justified. The justification is subjective. Whatever. The performance first. As for me if your works lousy, no matter how hard you are trying to please your boss, it won’t work.
Hmm pelik…. The negative things had been spread out by those who had being rewarded and promoted. Being a bigmouth, the toughest thing is to avoid from gossiping and kutuk orang BUT if you being rewarded something by this fellow, why must you talk the bad thing and black sheeping that person. Shame on you lah.
This triggered me to someone who ever said that maturity can’t be identified by the ages. Lagi tua lagi bodoh. Try to look at the different angle. Look the positive thing rather than the negative one. The maturity comes after the worst thing happens to you. Believe it, it just the matter of time. Time will tell. Hari ni buat kat orang , satu hari kena balik
