Blissful moment

 

Okay,I’m ‘terlebih rajin’ today.*In office though.

In the September issue Cleo,I got a sample of shower gel from Palmolive.

The Aromatherapy Shower Gel.

and they were AWESOME!

I am very sensitive towards perfume and shower gels.Anything which smells a little too strong will give me an immediate headache.

However,when i tried the sample of Absolute Relax (the purple one),it was a BLISS.

Honestly.It lathers well too.Foamy and it does give a luxurious bath feel.Trust me.

The Sensual smells great too.My roomie used it before,and it smells great as well.

I never come across the Morning Tonic,but i have a strong feeling that it will have the citrus-y smell.

 

I’m planning to get a family-sized bottle too,most probably the Sensual.

 

You should indulge yourselves in these luxurious shower gel too!

Till then.

Little birds,huge birds,cute birds and Angry Birds.

 

Angry bird craze are everywhere,that we now have them in cake form!

Abby

 

Abby who?

Why do I mention Abby here?

How does the person by the name of Abby have anything to do with me?

Wondering?

Okay.

Abby.Me.

Abby = Me.

Confused again?

Well,Abby is my name in the office.

Why Abby,you may ask.

According to my boss,it’s difficult to pronounce my name.So to ease the customers,she gave me a new name,Abby.

And I got teased by my boss’s husband by asking for either CD or ABCD.

Duhh.

I added a new name to my name collection. T_T

 

Till then.

Retail therapy

 

A little retail therapy indeed will do everyone good,especially for girls.

It might be a couple of nail polishes,a piece or two blouse or maybe just a lipstick which you always wanted to have in your collection.

The after-effect is awesome.It will leave you feeling relaxed and satisfied.

Trust me,and I’m sure ALL of you know very well what I meant.

I just bought myself two bottles of Elianto nail polish,and the shades are awesome.I never imagined myself to purchase such colors before,but today I just picked them up and I feel satisfied!

So,when is YOUR therapy?

 

Till then.

Birthday.

 

Today, 25th of August 2011.

Two of my bestest friends’ birthday.

I dedicate this post,specially for them.

Vinothini Thanapalan

Nailil Hanani Suhaimi

Happy birthday my best friend,
Amazing times, we always spend.
Laughter and jokes are common place,
Since we built that solid base.
Special friend that I hold dear,
Always wish to have you near.
We get along, like bread with honey,
A friendship worth, much more than money.
If you stumble, count me there,
Gratitude; no need to declare.
Your thoughts are clear, in my mind,
Understanding we always find.
Happy birthday my best friend,
I’m excited to attend.
This birthday poem, is just for you,
A great big smile is overdue.

 

Well,now since you guys are no more girl but now a lady,have another one…

When you are young life leaves you no choice
Do this. Do that.
No room for a little voice
When all you want to do is play and just have fun
Ride your bike. roller-skate, and be free to run.
With no concerns for the who's, what's, when's and why's
Then you go from a girl to a woman before your own eyes.
Life gives you lessons to learn as you grow
Room for mistakes and time to show what you know
Just be patient because things will soon go your way
enjoy the young times and have a happy birthday.

 

Happy Birthday!!

The First Flight

 

I am currently working under a small company which organizes all kind of flying event,and also sky diving,paragliding and microlight.

Did I just say SKYDIVING?

Yes,as a matter of fact,if time permits,I might as well go for the 1st trip of sky diving by the company which will be held in Johor around October.

Risky,but the thrill is there! :)

Anyways,back to the track.My first flight after I actually know the world.I’ve been in airplanes before,but those were when I was like a few months old – 6 years old?!

Seriously,I don’t remember anything about my previous flights.

The only thing i remembered is that one of the beautiful air stewardess helped me to cover myself with blanket,and the moment I get back home only to realize that I lost my half pair of my earrings.

Duhh. T_T

Okay,since I’m working there *though not permanent* my boss decided to give me a ride on the aircraft,to give me the feel of how is it to fly on a small aircraft,just for sightseeing purpose around KL city.

It may sound a little lame,but I got the chance to do it while a lot others don’t get it,right?Plus,my trip is free!

My flight was on a Cessna 150,a 3-seated aircraft.

My flight was scheduled with US customer,Candy Salmeron and her boyfriend Greg.

We became friends fast,that my boss almost thought we knew each other way before we met on the day.

The journey started from my office,where my boss and I went to Subang Airport,Terminal 3 in her car.*Free trip and free transportation?*

Upon reaching there,we were briefed by our pilot Azim regarding the aircraft.*Not my interest,so ‘masuk telinga kiri,keluar telinga kanan’*

Then,we were guided through the check post into the hanger.

At first,to view the hanger from the Mc Donald's next to the hanger would not give you the thrill.But the moment you walk yourself into the hanger,you get excited.

After a 5 minutes brief,I stepped into the aircraft first,followed by Greg.*He is big,so I had to get in there first*

After everyone settled and buckled themselves to their seat,the engine was started.Candy,who was the co-pilot was guided by Azim to fly the aircraft.A few minutes later,we are gliding over the runway if I am right.But we have to wait for a few minutes to get the wind condition right for us to fly,and finally when we took off from the runway,the feeling was awesome!

As though you have spread your wings to fly in the air!

Just for the sake of fun,Azim gave us a sudden pull in the height,which reminded me of the Space Shot in Genting Highland!

That was the only heart-stopping moment in the aircraft,the rest of the flight was as smooth as whipped cream. ;)

The flight did not last long,as we had to make an emergency landing due to the arrival of three commercial planes.

Landing was smooth,hats off to Azim.

Before we actually wave goodbye to each other,we managed to snap a few shots.So,let the pictures do their talk!!

Yakuza

 

Recently,I came across a Japanese word.Yakuza.

What is Yakuza?

The Yakuza is the name given to organized criminal gangs from Japan. The Yakuza is not a single organization but rather a collection of separate gangs or clans akin to the American Mafia. These violent criminals have left their fingerprints on many aspects of Japanese life, from lowly gambling and prostitution rackets to the halls of high-level political and financial power.

Sounds like gangster?

Yup,Japanese version of mafia/gangster.

However,they are well respected in Japan.Unlike our own mafia,whereby they are dreaded.

We Malaysian have also our own Yakuza,and they can be found in Malacca.

They are respected people,and they treat others well..well,unless you want to be their enemy,then you can always wait for your ‘treat’.

My friend,who knows a few Yakuza described them as people who will treat you well if you treat them well.

I think this applies to everyone,right?I mean if you treat people well,people of course will treat you well in return.

Hrmm..I don’t dare to write more on Yakuza,I don’t want to offend anyone.

You may Google them if you want,but I bet you can’t find much about Yakuza in Malaysia.

They are low-profile people.

 

Till then.

Experience.

 

Felt like it had been ages since I’ve properly blogged!!

I missed you,little diary!

I have resigned from Memory Lane after one month there.It was a nice experience working over there,in fact I miss working there.

Now I’m working in a company.Office job.

Really challenging,as it is totally out of my field.Though at first I was in doubt,then I decided to give it a try.To gain some new experience and to get myself exposed to real office environment while waiting for the proper job.

I struggled throughout my first week.However,my workmates told me the job would be fun and I will be enjoying my work there.I don’t have that impression at all.

I even got scolded by unsatisfied customer,though the mistake is not mine.At a point,my mind went blank until the boss came to cool me down.

That bad,huh?

Now I am in my second week,and things are getting better.I am catching up and tomorrow will be my first ever client-meeting session.In Cyberjaya.Sounds cool,rite?But then,the venue was changed to Times Square.Hrmm.

And I might fly together with customer and reporters from a magazine this coming Friday.Hopefully things goes according to the plan.

I really do hope things will be better for me in the near future.

Pray for me,peeps!

Bittersweet chocolate

 

Life is a bittersweet chocolate.

Why?

It is full of unexpected things.

Like what?

Like what I went through.

It was last week,when I was in evening shift.About 6pm,my dad called me.My results!!Thank God,my results were better that what I expected.

But that’s sweet right,not bitter?

There’s more.Like this:

My friend will be resigning her job,going back to her home town.We were close that the 2 weeks friendship we had left an impression in us.

  Our farewell.

What else?

A surprise!!

Yup.Both Wana and Naza bought me earrings!I didn’t expect it at all,as Wana and I bought a gift for Naza and, Naza and I bought a gift for Wana for her birthday.And they both bought a gift for me!!

Thanks darlings!!!

XOXO

Life is full of surprises,nah?

 

Till then.

Thank you,little diary!

 

What I meant by that?

Well,I considered my blog as my diary,where I can pour out anything (without violating the blog’s terms and condition,of course!!).

I was feeling a little down,I,uh, checked my Facebook and I actually checked out this one particular profile.I’m not supposed to feel anything,but maybe a little missing-you feeling hit me i guess.But,it is best to be left alone,that’s for the best.

Thanks to my Little Diary where i actually wrote a little self-assuring note(check my previous post) and Gypsy by Shakira,I’m back to myself.

Okay,I have three stories to share here.

Story 1

I was on duty at the shop alone,as my friend went to perform her Asar prayers.Then,Came along this African guy,looking for some cards.He then told me to keep aside his cards,as he wanted to look for some gifts elsewhere.A little while later,he came back with a pair of kids clothing.He paid the cards first,then he started a conversation,asking for a gift box.A normal shopkeeper-customer conversation.He,then asked;

“ You working here?”

“(Duh,can’t you see?)Yes,I’m a part-time worker here(smile).”

“I see.You are studying?”

“I just finished my studies,waiting for my convocation(smile).”

“Diploma?”

“No,Degree(smile).”

“Owh,degree(he smiled a little wider,or should i say a grin?He looked impressed,though).Where?”

“AIMST University.”

“So,you are going to work elsewhere and get married?”

“Owh,not so soon.I’m still young(huh?what the hell?).”

“Still young.Hmm.So what is your idea of getting married?”

“25.”

“25?How old are you now?”

“22”.

The conversation was paused for a while,I was busy preparing his gift and he was mentioning that the gift is for his friend’s son etc etc.I just owh-ed and i see-ed.When he was paying,he asked;

“Can I get the contact number?”

“Owh yes,it’s right at the bottom of this card,Leisure Mall(while handing him a Hello Card).”

“No,no not this contact number.I mean personal contact number.”

I was like WHAT?!

“Owh,sorry I don’t give my number to strangers.”

He looked slightly taken aback.

“Strangers?Yes,now we might be strangers.Who knows in the future we might be more than strangers bla bla…”

I just smiled throughout his bla bla blahs.When he was about to make a move;

“You must know that you look beautiful.I must say that.Anyways,who knows someday we will be more than strangers?Who knows?etc etc…”,till he left the shop.

I can’t do anything but a fake smile.

Scary,huh?

And funny,hahaha.I told the whole thing with Naza and we both had a good laugh.

Well,at least there was something to life our mood up.

 

Story 2

Aadi month is already here and co-incidentally,it was Sankada Chathurthi yesterday.So,my mother and I took a bus to town to go to Court Hill Pillayar Temple in Pudu and Tun HS Lee Mariamman Temple.We Malaysian,are decent enough to offer our seat to the needy but some foreigner,who came all over from their country to Malaysia to earn some cash for their family,are being indecent enough to sleep in the bus!!Prove??

See!!

 

Story 3

Remember the shoe which I was drooling on?No?

Click here to view the post.

Well?

I bought it!!Finally!!

Yesterday.I went to the store 1/2 after my boss left.Hehehe,to be safe.Anyway,yeah,I went there,surveyed around the shop.Well,they do have respectable collections.Bata always have,right?

Back to the story.So,I took the shoe on display and tried it on.Too big.I called the ‘kakak’ to get me a size 7 shoe.She got me the pair,and tried it on.Perfect fit!Then,the color.Black or brown?Both looks nice on me.

But then I took black.Universal color,goes with all color.

Then I got it packed.Went to the cashier.And PAID!!

Now,I am the proud owner of…

I love the box design.I can’t wait to walk on it!!

Hurrah!!

Till then,xoxo.
