Boring Saturday!!!!

I woke up this morning at 8am feeling reluctant to get off my bed.
Darn!! I need to get to cyberjaya for work on a saturday morning!!A beautiful saturday morning that is!
When i get to cyberjaya at about 10 am, my colleagues had left..so i just sit here until 6pm.. Will be sitting here for 8 hours- Been here for .. Doing absolutely nothing and its bloody cold in the server room...luckily, there is one operator who talk to me for the first hour about his KK trip and his working routine here. Otherwise, it's totally unbearable to sit here alone and in the cold..

I wish the time will pass quickly.at least for now..then i could go back to my lovely bed...

Hiking Excursion

Yesterday was such an eventful day. Went to Bukit Tabur,Taman Melawati for hiking. We started off at 8am. The group consists of 6 of my colleagues and 11 others from Hong Leong Bank. It was a good start as the weather looked great. I was the only one wearing shorts but thank goodness the land was dry and not slippery, else i will get many scratches(though i did get few minor cuts and bruises).

Overall, it was an interesting experience. We climbed up and down -crossing the hills. What i like most bout this hike is the rock climbing part. Quite dangerous,i must say as we swinged with the ropes, and climbed with our bare hands- testing our endurance and gripping skills!

In total,we spent about 5 hours!!But i really enjoyed the rock climbing part.Bee Teng(we called her spider woman) led us throughout the journey- this was her second time though. A big thanks to her, Ed, Too for they were really helpful and always watching over me!!

One of them said Bukit Tabur is even more difficult to climb than mount KK. So, i guess, mount KK wouldn't be much of an obstacle for me.:P

After lunch and getting ourselves squeaky clean, we headed down to Thai Odyssey at One Utama for foot massages. One of my colleagues and I decided not to go for the foot massage (the lady was way too persistent though,eeeewww), so we went to have mee suah(with oyster) at one of the shops selling taiwanese food.

Some decent photos i took:

Tax Tips

Today,I went for a briefing conducted by Inland Revenue Board(IRB) or better known as Lembaga Hasil Dalam Negeri. Something very important to share with all of you is that the rebate for the Books/Magazines is allocated RM700 per annum.

The guy who has worked there for 27 years said "Apasal you tak claim tujuh ratus ni?Claim jer la". Then another guy asked "Tak ada resit pun boleh claim?"
"Takkan u beli majalah bawah jambatan, u nak resit ke?Takkan u beli buku untuk anak kat sekolah, ada resit?Claim jer la."replied the officer.

So, indirectly he was hinting to us that we can claim the RM700 allocated for books and magazines without receipts!!The reasoning is because that they can justify the amount spent on books. However for others like medication for parents, u need to have the receipts.

Well,its good to know that coz i dun spend that much on books per annum :P

Gold Hunting

I went shopping for gold jewelleries for my mom's birthday and i've found out that..
Current market rate for gold :
999 gold - RM86gm
916 gold - RM82gm
835 gold - RM78gm
750 gold - RM59gm
375 gold - RM38gm

After searching and surveying many gold shops(i dun remember how many), I've finally settled for this pair of mystic knot gold earrings, which is about 1.9g..

Here's a little bout mystic knot:
"The Mystic Knot is a combination of 6 times the infinity symbol. This wonderful knot symbolizes a long and happy life enriched with endless good fortunes, and uninterrupted by illnesses or setbacks. Apart from being used to encourage prosperity and longevity, it is also widely used as a symbol of everlasting love. It is also a potent symbol of protection."

I wish my mum a Happy 60th Birthday...many happy returns! :)

dedicated to her

Last friday, while i was waiting for the bus,i saw her, she just got down from the taxi, carrying a small basket with her. She didn't see me, i called her a few times but she didn't turn back..i didnt give up, coz i knew she probably couldn't hear me. Then i slowly walked to her and gently touch her arms. "Ah poh, hau mau?" i asked her in my slowly deteriorating Hakka, she was so delighted to see me. Her eyes lightened up and she told me how long she has not seen me, and wondering what i have been up to. That's my neighbour popo who watch me grow up, she is 85 this year, really admire her coz everywhere she goes, everyone seems to know her becoz of her friendliness. Barely 5 feet and wearing her cap,holding my hand, she related to me about her day to day life, her grandchildren, and many other things. i am so glad to have met her that morning and she felt the same way too!Time really passes so fast!And we had to say goodbye..
i wish her healthy and happy always!cheers popo!

my name is so common yet i like it..

Today, finally, i met the person with the exactly same name as me. EXACTlY!In my entire life, in school,uni and workplace, there is always someone with the same name as me but not the same full name. At first, it was so weird when i saw 2 my/her name in the form, then i found out that she is attending the same training!Imagine the confusion, when our names are called, both of us responded 'who r u referring to?'. There is no way to identify either of us with just our names.

I was curious as to how she looks like.She has a petite frame,shoulder length hair and small beady eyes.
Initially, we didnt talk coz it's pretty awkward. When i introduced myself, she already knew who i was - hmm, was she wondering the same thing too? Oh yeah, her emails all go to me becoz of the confusion of our names.

Well, after getting to know her, i find she is a nice person,we clicked instantly and chatted almost bout everything under the sun. i can almost relate to her instantly.Hahahh..i do get along with pple who has the same name as me!Hurray!(*v*)

Have u met anyone with the exactly same name as u r?
