Salam perayaan, salam sejahtera.

Another celebration for Muslims have come and gone, and im guessing most of us are having full tummies right about now...full and content.;p

its another Raya Haji celebration away from kampung. another Raya in the suburbs of Subang Jaya, bertemankan jalan raya yang jam dan traffic yang tak putus2. Masjid penuh dengan warga asing, who mostly have jobs at the nearby Mydin or Giant. They seem to be making the most of it, so i take it in stride to make the most of the Qurban too.

Simillar to the year before, this year the nearby Masjid ade menjalankan upacara sembelihan, and as usual, Dad bought satu bahagian. I have never been strong in the stomach, to actually witness the slaughter of the cow itself.

fusyi+blood=blackout...

im sure its a common thing...kan?

anyhoo, low tolerance for gushing blood aside, i went to help with the slaughtering anyways. well, its mostly jumping in, and helping anyone who needed help with the tugging and the pulling, u know, to tumbangkan the lembu itself.

I've always wondered, why the cows here in malaysia dont have the black and white tompok like we have been accustomed to associate with....

Then there is the tindih-ing, while they cow is slaughtered. There was this one situation on this one cow, where i was literally only inches away from his test*cles. There were people pushing me from above, weighing me down onto the lembu, and i was trying desperately to avoid a face-balls incident.

Crap2, let it not touch me, let it not touch me..

lesson learned: if u have to tindih a lembu, pick a part away from its business area, the tummy or torso would be a good choice.

7 cows worth of tugging and tindih-ing later, i was covered in cow dung and mud and decided that i will never have a future in cow wrangling (or domestication of any animals for that matter).



The menu for the whole day of yesterday was kambing and lembu masak macam2. i am now still stuffed, but there's some kari from yesterday with my name on it.

lunch time bro, wanna join?

my feet are sore, help.

Just finished a three day visit to the International Petroleum Technology Conference (IPTC), a few major lessons were learned.

1. Job market is tight, better bring ass into gear and move plan ahead a.s.a.p
saw a whole lot of students scouting potential companies they would like to work with. With a whole bunch load of engineers graduating every semester, i think it wise for people to start looking out for opportunities. Apparently the field is now looking to hire a whole bunch of young professionals to replace the baby boomer generation. Better work out those resumes, and send em flying a.s.a.p.

2. Exhibitions means freebies, and freebies means good stuff for zero cost.
No wonder Dad always comes home rocking with good stuff everytime he comes home from an exibition. Diaries, pens, caps, shirts, hampers, u name it. I deem it ,the poor mans version of shopping, u see what u like, and instead of paying for it, u ask for it.
"can i have a pendrive?"
"can i take this mug?"
some of us who are not so comfortable being so direct, might strike up a conversation with the people in charge at the booth. Asking inquisitive questions, showing interest on the company profile, and then stand around for a bit.. they sure to be passing u a bag if u hang around long enough.
cheapskates, arent we all deep inside? lol~

3. Dress shoes suck for walkies, wear loafers next time.
i come home, with my foot feeling like a brick. it refuses to listen to instructions, and sends nasty pain signals to my brain everytime i walk..a quick jump on by Ichin relieved it for a bit..now i understand why people dont buy Bata shoes. (-_-!!)

note to self: get foot massager when have own money, or get filthy rich and get own masseuse. *growl* ;p


dead post. this is not good for blog, no no..

when all u need, is a darn good book

A few days into the holidays, and what can i say. I come home to find that i have been moved to a bigger room (fomerly the tv/lounge space upstairs), which is a nice surprise. But there's heck of a lot of stuff as big as the space is, and i think some sorting out needs to be done a.s.a.p.



You'd be surprised at the amount of books scattered in my house. Some of which are now safely collecting dust on the shelves.
Mum being a teacher means that there's tons of books on Maths and Science everywhere, from workbooks to textbooks to folders filled with past papers. There's always the question of whether to throw or not to throw out the old outdated books. There's always a 'just in case' involved whenever we decide to chuck away the old books.

Just in case we need to revise the old syllabus.
Just in case my bro might want to use it in a couple of years.
Just in case we just might need it.

Then to add to the collection are dad's old books, business books mostly. I reckon they were purchased at a time when he was still studying. I'm not sure who would want to read those, but they're still around, awaiting a keen eye to lay upon them one day. Dad also collect books on things like
"Keeping a positive mind"
"8 books you must read"
or something along those lines. Sort of motivational books he collects during his travels here and there. most of which ends up on the shelves after a good one round.

And there's my books, ones collected these past few years as a budding engineer. Honestly speaking though, there are some of the books that have still crisp pages, and covers hard and new. ;p
Cant blame me for losing interest in a book filled with jargons and numbers u'd take a while to understand. *sigh*

and there's the bunch of other books thats lost somewhere in the mix. The story books that's been thrice read cover to cover, the books that were bought at a flea market and no one seems to read since they were bought, the books that we have no idea came from where but seems to always be there, and the books that were once leisure reading material for mum and dad when they were in their teens.

now, we cant seem to have a proper place to put them all. so now here they are, in my room, the whole lot (after what dad said to be a whole day of filtering through the pile, the collection now has minimized in size). All mixed and matched, in no particular order or category. They fall under one general category, 'book'.;p
When i'm bored, i go through the shelves, and i occasionally find a good book to read. Well, not that good, but its something to put me to sleep.......more or less.

unless of course, some of you would be a dear, and sing me a lullaby? :)

Hey, so its been a while.

I should be writing more..a self reminder...God knows there are a sure heck of a lot of things racing through my head at any particular time..all wanting attention, and all end up being put on hold. I have never been the quaint multi tasker.

so, finally, exams are over. after what it seems like a long couple of weeks, im once again rid of the books and pens for a couple of weeks. I have so looked forward to the days after the exams, but when they do come around i find myself wondering. Wondering what am I to do to fill in the times that i have now been blessed with so abundantly.

I have always thought that i wanted to live a bum life. Maybe live on a tropical island, where my activities revolves around water, and lazing about in a hammock between coconut trees. That is what i have always thought would be the life for me....
but now i dont see me ever surviving that...seriously..

I have slowly to begin turning into somewhat of a workaholic. In which case i have no idea if that is a good thing or a bad thing. Its because i find that when i have work to do, i have a reason not to worry about other things. I have a reason to be just shut in, and keep my head in work.
Its sort of therapeutic at times, a confidence boost when for once, ure done with ur work way ahead of time. :P




What to do, what to do..

I think ill just keep my behind at home for the upcoming few days into the holidays. De stress the stressed, and just get into my holiday mood.
Lupakan sahaja perkara-perkara remeh seperti buku dan pena dan kalkulator. Aku relieve them of their duties buat sementara waktu.


Happy Holidays People, have a good one. :D
