Kuantaned!

Oh hai!
4 months 4 months in Kuantan and I'm finally DONE! Time flies I tell ya. Just a few posts ago I fret and complained how lonely and boring I got and yada yada. Now I'm already preparing for my next attachment, Penang! Yesterday was a rush when I was finishing up my work (don't want to leave any shit for my colleagues to follow up after I leave wtf) and then went home to stuff my things into my car. End up no time and just threw everything inside. While packing I realised I had alot of unnecessary stuff like accumulated plastic bags (to throw rubbish wtf), accumulated rubberbands and strings to tie rubbish bag swtf, books I brought but didn't read, shin chan comics, unused cups I bought when I expected friends to visit, thousands of clothes hangers, all my pirated dvd series, and the list goes on..... Gotta admit although I'm happy leaving Kuantan now, there are things I'm gonna miss. The people here are so nice! I really hope the people in Penang would be the same!! I'm gonna miss the beer and people in LemonGrass Bar! I'm gonna miss being called Anuar Zain celup Cina wtf, I'm gonna miss the free iced nescafe and food I get from my Kai Ma (Godmother) so cheapskate wtf. I'm gonna miss scolding and listening to the waitresses complaining about their bf and the domestic violence attempts (cry cry cry but still wanna be together wttttttf!). Anyway these are random pics I took throughout my Kuantan attachment...

On the way to Kuala Terengganu for a regional meeting, I pursuaded my colleaguess to stop by this stall and try this drink called Air Nira. Looks dirty and disgusting but it actually tastes quite alright. It's made from coconut but I don't know which part of it. The smell is a little pungent, something like todi without the alcohol kick to it. Not that bad la. Still drinkable and no I did not get diaerrea. But I don't think I will try it again. heeeeee..........................

This is something I had very often for breakfast, Nasi Minyak (oil rice wtf). No la it's not literally oil and rice only... similar with Briyani rice. It's actually very nice but too filing for me. People here eat alot of rice even for breakfast. And I'm obligated to follow them. How to not get fat?

This is an East Coast famous rice dish, Nasi Kerabu. I absolutely love it! Rice mixed with lots and lots of vegetable strips, shaved coconut, sambal and roast beef! Seriously damn nice! A must try if you go there! This is also usually eaten for breakfast. Fattening too but not so bad since there're more vege and I really like it. Fat also worth it wtf.

This is my kai ma. Funny story since she's one of my retailer who was supposingly very difficult to handle. So I was forced to unleash my goodboy and innocent look power wtf and deal with her. Somehow she fell for it and I got to know her a little better and boom became my godmother. After that I started to get free iced nescafe and lunch. Then I received Christmas present, and then New Year present, and then CNY Ang Pow and lastly Vitamins to take to Penang. You see, never underestimate the power of goodboy and innocent look wtf. But I'm not thick skin also and I'm kinda embarrassed that she treated me so well. Therefore I took her and her son for dinner. See I'm equally nice. >.<

This is my assignment manager in Kuantan. In formal terms, he's my boss but I call him my "Ah Hia", brother wtf! That's why I'm so gonna miss the people in Kuantan. Everyone's cool about everything which made work fun! Of course he's the cause of my constant Tiger and Heineken consumption too wtf. The amount of beer I drank throughout the 4 months in Kuantan is way more than what I drank my entire life before I went there. Nonetheless I had fun and incredible memories there!

Felt so shy because I'm sitting on the Regional Manager's seat (the man-in-black.. lamechop I know). State clerk behind. Nervous until smile damn fake wtf.

When I came back to Kl finally went to see my coach (KL main reporting manager). Did my sign off and was glad to get a good appraisal from him! Means good bonus later this year muahahaha! After that managed to meet up with Ws for lunch at 1U. Didn't know they opened a few new restaurants there. Went to New York New York Deli which serves New York food wtf. Burgers, sandwiches, salads, soups.... aiya western food la. I ordered their All-Day-Breakfast which was okay only but I will definitely go back there since there're so many other dishes in their menu. Prices are reasonable too!

-Pumpkin Soup-

-Crispy Buffalo Wings-

-Ws' Salmon sandwich.. yucks-

-Big Big Breakfast-

-Glutton eat so much-

This last pic is actually for Ws to show off to the other 2 wtf, sitting in the Avanza and eating with me in my uniform. I feel so used, like some fcking zoo animal.

Will be leaving for Penang this Sunday, a whole new chapter which will not be 4 months 4 months but
4 and a Half Months,4 and a Half Months!

When Buns go bad...

I went back to Kl again this weekend. Actually I didn't plan to until my boss asked me and was really surprised when I said no. Following his reaction I thought to myself and spontaneously packed my stuff and drove back :D Called Ms J no. 1 to have our hokkien mee session but she was busy. Darn! So in the end I just went home and had dinner/ supper with my family. Later that night was surprised to received a msg from Ms J no.2. We shared our fair share of probs on msn but it wasn't consoling enough. So at 12.45 a.m I decided to go over her place and resumed our one-on-one therapy wtf. Even had to bring my own 3-in-1 coffee simply because that woman doesn't know how to work her 'high-class' coffeemaker. It was great for 2 heartbroken people catching up laughing shamelessly at our crazy fantasies. I left at 4 a.m dead tired.

The next day was more exciting. Took Ms. J no.2 out for dinner at Rakuzen. She misses her avocado crabmeat salad and I miss my zen beef sukiyaki. Again the both of us unleashed our 38ness assuming everyone else thought of us as a couple. Sorry...... not just any couple but a celebrity couple wtf. After dinner we were just too full, so we decided to take a stroll along Pavillion. We went crazy and acted like tourists. I seriously wonder what went wrong that night.....

The final itinerary was to have drinks, get drunk and end the night. It was bad. Wanted to go to Wabisabi at TTDI but it was full. So ended up at Modesto Tao which served lousy drinks and bad service. When we went in we were greeted by the Filipino waitress. Her face instantly changed when she saw us as a couple. I was kinda confused until we went in and saw there were many call girls serving balding fatty uncles. Guess we were not potential customers for her. Hence the cold service wtf.














On a totally different topic, I witnessed a sweet cat-couple wtf when I was back home. They were this 2 cats which kept brushing their heads to one another, almost as if they were re-assuring their love. Either that or they have equally itchy heads wtf. It was nice to see such loving cats instead of the ones which keep purring outside my kitchen door demanding for food whenever my mum cooks.

Btw, have a great 2009 everyone! Meow Meow!!

Need I say more?

So long didn't post anything so I'll post a long one this time....

23rd December 2008, Tuesday
Just attended the regional meeting for 9 freaking hours. Mentally tired and was contemplating of driving back to Kl or not. Decided to fuck it and drive home because I don't wanna drive back on Xmas eve. Sure damn tired when I reach Kl and thus spoil my Xmas mood.

24th December 2008, Wednesday
Woke up doing nothing.... laze around and watch anime only... until I go to Grandma's place for Xmas eve dinner. Now, Xmas dinners are always nice. They have turkey, roast potatoes, steamed veges and yummy desserts. This is what I had.




Curry prawn, stew duck, yong tau foo,stir fried vege ........... what's so christmasy about these...... CNY also same food........... need i say more?

The company was alright though. Was fun to catch up with cousins and was even more fun when aunts RE-interrogate my lovelife: "Shaun where's your Gf? Your brother getting married already wor... where is yours? Working still don't have meh?" Need I say more. sigh..... Right after they decided the itinerary for Xmas day itself. To attend Mass in the morning; check. To eat leftover food from Xmas eve's dinner for lunch; not so check wtf. To have dinner at Seafood Restaurant, Lala Chong; BYE BYE!!!

25th December 2008, Thursday
Went to Mass at CDM in the morning. After that, didn't eat lunch at Grandma's place but asked R out for lunch. Had japanese at Rakuzen. Wasn't really Christmacy either but fulfilling. Beef Sukiyaki kampai wtf. R also burnt me 2 CDs which I am so addicted to right now, especially to Robin Thicke. After listening I tried to sing like him but failed miserably.Still I will not stop wtf. You're my baby, ohh baby.. you're my sweet sweet love oh baby.... After lunch we hang out at Starbucks, Pavillion trying to spot for eye candies. Quite fun sipping espresso frap, looking around and smoke. He did, I didn't =P. As for dinner, we had nothing to do so ended up going to Neway Karaoke. 2 people sing like mad from 6.00-10.30. Unfortunately no Robin Thicke. damn... or else I could have done my sweet sweet baby version.... and R would probably keep bleeding...keep keep bleeding wtf. After that went back home, shower and drank coffee. It was a great day. "You're my baby.. sweet baby..." I think somebody has to stop me now.....Need I say more?

Didn't have any plans today. Ate nasi kandar for lunch while watching Ugly Betty and wasted time until late in the evening. Had dinner with college mates at Tony Romas. It was nice to catch up with them i guess. Need I say more?

27th December 2008, Saturday
Brought family to the famous Hong Kong dim sum restaurant at DJ for breakfast. They really enjoyed it but not as much as the cashier. So expensive! After that went back home, continued sleeping until evening and had Spicy Soup steamboat with Py at Timesquare. Didn't taste as good as the last time but we had a great time. After dinner we watched IP Man. Donnie Yen is still as good as ever. This time, funny too! Py and I sparred a little Wing Chun and obviously I won. However, I was forced to succumb in signing a marriage agreement with her if she's not married by the time she turns 30. Oh well, it's a win win situation anyway. Need I say more?

28th December 2008, Sunday
Cw came back from Aus! I took him to Pavillion and we had lunch at Madam Kwan. Funny since I couldn't find anything I like there, I ended up eating chicken chop wtf. After that we just hang around Pavillion window shopping. Tried to get seats at Starbucks but it was full. Dammit! Was using my evil-persuasive-power wtf to make him buy something from Pavillion but failed. Didn't give up and finally made him buy an external hard drive from Low Yat. Perseverance pays :) He also used his power by asking me to go over to Aus and work in Melb. I shut him up by asking him to bring me over as his domestic partner to get my PR status. He wasn't going to marry his gf for the next 2 years anyway. Need I say more?

29th December 2008, Monday
Waking up was a bitch today. The moment I opened my eyes I remembered today's the day I return to Kuantan. sigh....... didn't wanna go out for lunch because I know by the time I get back I'll have to leave already. So just stayed in and ordered pizza. Somehow waiting for 45 minutes prolongs the time wtf. Pathetic I know. After lunch packed my stuff and depart...... Now I'm here blogging about my entire week feeling homesick. Only 3 weeks more to go before I leave for Penang. Pray I won't miss home as much as now. Pray even harder that I won't eat too much and get fat in Penang.

Need I say more?

A Terriggible Dae

Ok.... usually I won't blog on a weekday because I'm just too lazy and tired wtf. Today I'm still lazy and tired but I have to write this down to remind myself how wrong a day could go and to console myself if I ever experience a shitty day like this in future.

Ate spicy fried rice with beer and slept so late due to webcam and chatting.
Also didn't shit that day (why am I telling all this...wtf)
Woke up the next morning with a really bad tummy ache.
Before shower stomach pain like mad but just cannot shit.
After I got dressed and prepare to go to work.... then I felt like shitting superwtf. I think my stomach hates me for eating too much spicy food.
When I'm finally done with shitting the electricity went out. Autogate cannot open. Car cannot go out. I'm stuck.
Called the landlord and he told me the key's in the drawer. Found it but it isn't the right one. Called landlord again but he insisted that that is the key.
Gave up and asked my colleague to pick me up. No car... cannot work.
Then retailer called saying his shop got broke into and wanted me to go over. How??
After that landlord called and asked me to go back. He had the key with him all the while. Fck! Gonna give him eat spicy fried rice soon!

*Don't know why I'm getting angrier as I am continue writing this wtf*

Finally got my car and visited the retailer. Reach there only found out I couldn't help much since the insurance people are from Selangor and it's a public holiday there. Retailer somemore not appreciative and even asked me why I don't know. I'm so gonna feed him with spicy fried rice!
Then gotta finish tomorrow's work because I'm sending my car for puspacom inspection.
Drove so far but the shops were closed. Still in Raya Haji mood apparently. So I'm planning to serve all the shop owners with spicy fried rice when they get back. Raya Haji somemore la....

In the end, I went back without accomplishing anything.

Still have to send my car tomorrow but work not done. How?

It's the spicy fried rice I tell ya....... not the beer.

......a happy 2 minutes........

I opened the door and you smiled....
It's been a so long since we last meet but I still feel nervous when standing next to you....
Nervous but strangely comfortable...
You started coming closer..... and closer..... my heartbeat got faster.... and faster...
The feeling I've been searching all along........
I closed my eyes and...........

~~beep beep beep~~
....... damn alarm clock........ oh well, another day of work.....

sigh......

Finally free....

Finally free.... finally have the time to sit myself down and blog.... finally have a stable internet connection... (maxis broadband you still sarkkk!!)... Why a stable connection now? Celcom? Nopes! U-Mobile? Guess again... Wimax? Kuantan doesn't have it ler...........

Muahahaha....... I'm now in Starbucks enjoying the free wireless service while slurping my green tea frap! Perfect ambiance to blog! Fck... got people staring at me now for taking pic of my laptop and drink.....

I guess the first thing I'm gonna update is my graduation few weeks back. It was held in the KLCC convention center and it was nice... Finally graduate... big boy/ parents so proud wtf...... Okay, I have to be honest.... I thought the ceremony was damn boring and I dreaded it.... Why? I gotta drive all the way back to KL just to sit down and wait for a couple of hours, wearing the ugly robe, and then just go up and take piece of mock cert... not even the real one.. After grad we can't even throw our mortar boards up to celebrate because we gotta return it... can't afford to lose it ma... another saddening thing is Adrian, abangku's absense. That bugger was stuck in Abu Dhabi... forced to work but earn shitload of money. Nonetheless, the highlight of the day was actually my family surprising me with a bouquet of flowers.... although quite girly, it's actually my first receipt of flowers... haha.... quite sad so big only get.... even more sad for a guy who wants to receive flowers... wahaha fuck la... I don't want it ler....... I would preferred if they gave me cash.... or an Ipod wtf! But at the end it's the thought that matters and I am blessed with this family. There was a bigger surprise that day where 2 women came to congratulate me! (with a pressie =P) Don't worry WB, I know you have a share in the pressie too...lol. They actually wanted to surprise me but I already knew they were coming.... because I'm smart ma...... my mum was happy I had such good friends and therefore ter-ask the wrong question and that made me suspect their 'well-planned' agenda. The night before she suddenly ask me if I attended the 2 women's convo.......... then I asked her directly if they are coming to mine the next day..... she got a little panic and tried to cover up... too bad because she had the exact expression when she ter-blurt my 21st surprise birthday party... wahahaha mum i love you la...

cannot throw.... cannot throw............

The next thing I'm gonna update is Kuantan... as I said before, it's a nice place and it has almost everything in KL.. heck I'm now blogging in Starbucks yoh! Finally bought my laptop, so now I can post pics!! Like that only nice to blog ma. The best thing I like about Kuantan is the traffic.... seriously no jam.... and if the traffic's heavy, it's due to the many traffic lights this small town have. And because it's small, everything is so near to one another. It only takes me 2 minutes to reach office, 5-10 minutes to reach the malls and 15 minutes to Teluk Cempedak (the beach).The food here is just so so..... I reckon KL to have a better variety and no.... they do not have TGIF or Chillies here... fck! The only nice food is their yong tau foo... and we have to drive up to Sungai Lembing for it (about 45 minutes drive)..... they have the BEST white bean curd because they made it using fresh water. Seriously damn fresh because it's from the river wtf. Super smooth taufoo..."wat lute lute" wtf.




The 3rd thing I'm gonna update is the first launch event I attended since I started working. It was the Pall Mall launch and it was held in the Palace of the Golden Kuda-s. Super fancy and I can't imagine how much the budget was. And since Pall Mall is a value-for-money brand, its budget was supposingly the lowest compared to the other 2 brands....... wtf! Then again, I can't talk much about the event because I don't want to cause any compliant-related issues and I don't want people to think that I'm boasting about my job (wah, happening job la.... terrer la..... bla bla bla) What I'm gonna blog is one of my most malufying incident that happened that night. As usual, newcomers are alcohol victims during company formal dinners. I was prepared for the Kuantan team's attack. Not sure how much beers I had but I was alright. What I did not anticipate was the other management trainees attack.... damn kesian I also don't know how much vodka I downed. I was feeling alright but I needed to puke. Still okay la i thought since we usually feel better after vomiting. I was wrong....... after puking the alcohol hit me and I started to feel dizzy...... so I told myself sit down a while before going back to the hall..... The next thing I knew, people were knocking the cubicle door, trying to wake me up. I finally woke up and was dragged to the bus which brought us back to the hotel. I thought that was it, but again..... I was wrong...................... Went back to office on Monday and found out that apparently my drunk-ass pics were taken...... so many people knew about it until people from HQ (whom I didn't know) introduced themselves and referred to me as the "drunken master" wtf! This kind of case is very common in the company but I still feel damn embarrassed lo.... Finally gained visibility in the company but not necessarily in the right manner. Oh well, life goes on~~~


work hard.............!!!!

play harder......!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually got no more things to update already...... so will just post random pics and talk crap.

Bought myself a new wallet because my previous one was meant for teenagers wtf..... got it when I was in Bali and bought it because it was cheap. Always felt damn shy when I took my wallet out in front of my colleagues....I know I sound damn crazy but it's true la..... So when I went back to KL, I went to 1U and got myself new Braun Buffel. Wanted to be different wtf, so I purchased a vertical one this time. Want to say something ironic like getting a wallet but burnt a hole in my pocket... don't know how to put the right words so shall just say this and skip it wtf.. Anyway, I really like the wallet but don't know why recently the smell of the leather is damn strong... maybe I always put in the back pocket and sit... butt too hot and the leather reacted to my butt-heat wtf.

Before I left for Kuantan, I promised myself to read more intellectual books and get to know the business world.....

End up keeping them in the drawer and read these instead........

shin chan is damn fck funny wei.............................

Alrighty, the Starbucks staffs are already giving me the 'order-more-or-leave' look... I shall end here today and will try to blog more soon... adios.....

Still Alive....

I'm not gone...nor have I abandon this blog....... just busy with work.... lousy internet connection here (maxis broadband u sark!) and honestly quite lazy (rather read than write blog)........ always coming home tired, tipsy or both.......... will update new posts soon... sabar ler.......
