Choosing a unit...

Sejak pindah, Alhamdulillah dah banyak juga buat makan2 di rumah baru ni... kalau selalu tetamu datang rumah banyak rezeki kan?...Paling best is actually masa buat buka puasa dan solat terawikh berjemaah dengan family, makcik dan sepupu rapat... My niece ada buat video and pasted in the youtube. Please have a look. For a 17 years old gal, she is quite creative kan...?
 
 
The recent one that we had, it started with kawan2 rapat office nak datang, lepas tu just 2 days before the day, sedara mara plak nak turun dari Singapore, then my sedara dari Seremban, then kawan sekolah and the list just goes on and on. Maka ramai juga yang tak dijemput disebabkan nak simple punya pasal.
 
"Nak simple tapi ada khemah" - is the joke of the day semalam yang aku kena jawab... hahaha...
 
 
Hakikatnya sebab kita tak ada sofa dan rumah tak banyak kusi, so terpaksalah rent a tent muahaha...
 
My criterias for the unit.
 
Bila kawan2 datang, soklan yang paling suka di tanya, "berapa harga rumah ni". haha camner nak jawab tu? So I cracked a jokelah, rumah ni dapat hadiah menang slogan nescafe... muehehehe. ingat tak dulu nescafe ada buat peraduan menang sebuah rumah... memang pun I masuk peraduan tu sebab nakkkkk sangat rumah. Teringat I pulun beli pek nescafe untuk bukti pembelian... hahahaaha
 
 
Masa I umur 20an, I pun dapat swatch wrist watch menang saguhati peraduan nescafe gak..sebab tu aku suka ikut peraduan nescafe.... :P
 
 
Oh, lain-lain topik plak antaranya, "Eh bagus rumah ni depan tak ada rumah lain... " OOOOooooo yang itu memang one of criteria for me to choose a unit. Mesti tak ada rumah depan rumah I. Nak parking susah, dan bagi I , payah bukak langsir kang.... lagipun kalau anak I bergaduh, bukan jiran sebelah jer dengar, jiran depan dekat 10 unit lagi dengar kakakakakaa..... Baik avoid ye dak?...Dan kalau nak tau, criteria ini di mulakan dengan my father. My father choose his house mesti tak ada rumah lain di depan... mesti either padang , surau or seangkatan dengannya...3 of his houses gitu..
 
 
Then bila my sis beli rumah, pun sama.... tak amek yang blocked with another house.... my brother jugak terikut2...punya stress nak dapatkan unit yang tinggal satu jer, which is tak ada rumah depan rumah tu... berhari2 lamanya dia cuba nak holdkan unit tu sampai loan dia lulus... ehehehehe....
 
 
Even, rumah sewa I sebelum ni pun I pilih yang depan unit tu padang.. hehehe.. sabo je la kan....
 
 
Lagi satu, mengada2 lagi criteria,  kena ada lampu jalan depan rumah tu, so tak lah gelap.....
 
 
Lagi satu influence from our father... Rumah kena ada surau. Senang nak solat sama2 dan senang orang nak datang solat...my ex-staff kata, "aik dalam rumah pun ada surau"... sebab dia tak paham pesal nak ada surau dalam rumah, kan ker boleh solat jer dalam bilik masing2... hehehehehe.. memang pun kitorang solat kat mana2 bilik. tapi solat jemaah , mengaji buat dalam surau ni... macam orang putih punya reading room lah konon...kan. specific for reading or relaxing. The surau project ni belum habis lagi. sekarang ni temporary jer. Kalau boleh I nak buat macam ala masjid nabawi cum library... tapi budget tadek now hehehee....
 
 
Gardening


So far, only serai, pandan, limau dan curry leaves jer ada. muehehehe.. I am dreaming about buying a BIG pot for these plants.

Pictures later.

House & career

Sorry for the lack of updates...


I think I am in a "phase" in my career...a very dark phase it seems...


Alhamdulillah I dun really get depressed for itlah. mula2 saja..I know Allah is trying to test and make me learn... in a hard way it seemslah... learning in hard way will make you tougher.


House, finally all the left over construction jobs ie maintenance and repair was done. after eight mths of staying there. So all paid now. But I do ask for some discounts lah sebab ada yang tersalah pasang.... lambat bukan sebab apa, saja je tunggu warranty period is over kan. Kalau bayar habis kang, panggil datang repair pun tak nak datang kan....


Gardening...


I now baru rasa nak move on with the gardening projects. But I wish I can get some of the land to be cemented and floored first.


Tapi pun, maybe i will start little by little and not to put high expectations.


TMNet...

The fixed line not yet connected. Susah bangettt... I want unifi boleh? cepatlah ada connection, have been 8 mths without wifi... terukk sangat.


Bau busuk...


Standardlah kena update pasal ni...


Now bau dia lebih sekejap dari dulu. Pagi sekejap, maghrib sekejap... lepas tu free from the bau.




My dining room kusi nyer putih cam tu.. tapi lighting nya belum decide nak design apa... so apakata weekend ni i pegi window shopping muehehehehe....

Into the 7th month in Pajam...

Do I still like it?



Have I changed my mind?



Seriously everytime I saw my house I could not stop thanking Allah for it. It is more than I ever imagine I could have.



Bau busuk?



Lately tak ada. Last months, waktu pagi dan maghrib, bau tahi ayam, but the smell was gone after few hours. When we came inside the house, the smell did not follow us. Maybe coz we did not open our windows.



So it did not bother us much.



The school. 



So far, my children is happy, it seems that they have less stress, and my son usually gets 25 out of 40 (in his previous chinese school and with private tuition), in his mid term here, he got no 4 out of 15. without tuition. Chinese subject failed though. But surprisingly maths and science which are in chinese he scored about 70ish... That is good already to me. I am not raising einstein kan.


DD's accomplishment I think is normal, somehow I expected her to study by herself coz I have to focused on my son and his chinese subjects. I realized she is being neglected. Though by percentage and marks she is ok (no 1 in class, and no 1 again in her sekolah agama) but majority of her marks wasn't 90ish. To me the marks shows there are something in those subjects dia masih tak paham....


So all that were not because we were in Pajam. That was my fault for not spending more time with her.



What are the things I like most staying in Pajam?


I definitely love being near to Nilai 3. I do not have problems with shopping for groceries etc. I like it when I go to Alamanda I tak payah bayar toll.  I suka juga beli baju2 harian yang boleh tahan murah la jugakkk kat Nilai 3 or dataran nilai tu. Suka suka.....


I love the surroundings, the greenery and the silent at night time...... I know it will not be long, but it is not as crazy as Puchong where we lived before. Maybe we have about 3-4 years before it will get crazy like Puchong. But changes are always good.


Speedmart is nearby, it just fit our lifestyle yang malas pegi beli barang hehehehee.... Kadang2 pinjam jerlah trolley tu kan bawak balik rumah, petang2 hantar balik... so best sangat...ekekekeke...


Lagi satu sebab dekattt sangat ngan seremban, senang pegi rumah my cousin.



What are the things I do not like.


Hmm... maybe the bad smell of taik ayam yang once in a while tu. especially if my parents were around...they were quite vocal in complaining.. malas layan hehehee....they make it sound like so big and annoying....since it was not annoying to us that much (coz we know it was just once in a while) so it was rather annoying to layan all those questions...... So maybe you will have that problems too :P. So i think maybe menjawab soklan tu yang lebih malas dari mengharungi bau tu. Mungkin sebab we bought the house fully aware of the problems. kalau tak tau, mau mentally disturbed. So again, kindly take note, sebelum buat BIG commitment, assess the problems and ensure you can handle it.


the bau sampah dah tak ada...hmm yelah kan? bau sampah tu dah tak ada, maybe sebab lepas kebakaran besar kat situ ekekekeke kalau betul ada orang sabo, thank you to that person. Matters was taken into their own hands sebab it was not solved for years kot? kotlahhhhh......


I hope this experience is useful to anyone out there.


Nada Alam?


I am sure the design and concept is better than Ivory Villa. The place lagi dekat dengan KTM which will be fantastic for investment. 6-7 stops jer to KL Sentral kan.


Cuma, I wish..... they will besarkan jalan and I wish they can make a short cut to PLUS highway. It will be fantastic. The traffic jam after 730am is just so annoying. I resorted to taking short cut to Seri Putra nowadays. Save my duit toll juga.


And I really do not like the big lorry there. arghhhhh.... but of course I do not like it sebab selalunya sebab I tak organize pada waktu pagi dan bertolak lambat (ok dun look at me like that, kadang2 anak i menangis2 nak roti nak segala menda and I was late ok...hahahaha)... kalau bertolak pukul 655am will not have this "stress" ekekkekee...



By the way, malas nak buat entry lain.


Just to make a private note here that after Lawrence Walter training, and after my exboss said "stay with us" and a couple of people saying the same thing... i plan to retract. I told this to him and my current boss, and he said "that was one great news to me, what a great day..." I am still quite phobia, so I told my current boss, i will not inform HR yet coz i need time, please bear with me... yes I really need time. sebab I think I am still struggling with whatever had happened. but the funny part is....


The next day nya, while driving to work, i started to cry again.. arghhhhh! it is still hazardous..!!


I think quitting is the best decision. I dunno why I retract, maybe malas carik kerja. Malas panic... I thought projects sekarang macam best... tapi kenapa tetiba nangehhhh ekekeke...I am still fighting with my inside demons to understand the whole thing..please bear with me.

Of being strategic...

Ok office talk again..


By the way, my neighbor is currently busy with their house projects. I know how it felt. I do not even have time to start gardening... siram rumput pun tak ada masa camner tu..


Sometimes I just so pelik with myself. I know why I love work because at the end of the day, I will be rewarded. It is a systems that works. Other than reward, a sense of belonging and a sense of accomplishment that bring the adrenalin rush... Maybe that were the reason.


I kind of love being in the new department now. Managing 2 projects without planning to be a project manager... In a way, I am back to where I belong I guess.... No more on managing people at higher level, listening to all those complaints and handling difficult people who just refused to comply :) It was totally the darker side...


Let's see how. Maybe this is the strategy that the "he" mentioned to one of my colleagues, to bring me back? Or Allah's plan.... He knows maybe this is the best place for me. No interview calls so far pun.... Teruk sangat kan.... I think everywhere is like that coz I knew a couple of people who still struggling finding a new job with better salary nowadays.

The L*awrence Walter seminar...

I remember that I gave this guy a hard time...


It almost never happen...


But at the end, not only me, but MOST of my "strong character" colleagues, experience the same thoughts..


"nowadays, if I hear my children fight with each other, nak jer cakap ni laa kalau tak pergi lawrence walter seminar.. " heheheheheh


Betulllll tak tipu. kadang2 aku bila dengar anak2 aku terjerit2, aku macam heran, pesal la depa gitu.. tak pergi l*awrence walter seminar la tu....


Hahahahaha...



Even one of the snr manager nak hantar anak dia pergi lawrence walter seminar. memang bagus. CEO aku yang pada mulanya tak setuju pun sangat berubah lepas seminar tu.......


Fully recommended for your office! A life changing experience.

The world knew!

"Why the sudden decision?"


Nope it is not sudden. It has been in my mind since last december.


"Kenapa ko merajuk"..


hehehe lagi tak. I might have to go back to Singapore... or ... just to reflect. It has nothing to do with my boss.


"I saw your face is light up nowadays"


Bullsh*tlah ekekeke..... But in a way it is true, I felt that those baggage is no longer in my shoulder.


"Habislah, people will start to be demotivated... The most motivated, positive and energetic staff also resigned"..


eyyyy... I am not the best people out there. My leave has nothing to do with anything. I really do not want to send the wrong message.


My boss (without even speak to me) passed me a bood yesterday "Reclaim your hea*rt" by Yasmin Mo*gahed.


Omg. I have not finished reading but how can he know exactly what I am going through! The book is some sort of consultation with him without face to face. Maybe better.


maybe man is just less expressive with words, but he definitely a shaking best boss ever. I will carve his name in my personal "my ex-boss alumni" fyi, not all names were there.
