looking good

life's more or less on track. i might want to make a little change soon. nothing major. just a deviation from the original plan.
anyway, i've got a major crush on the bodycombat instructor. makes going to the class soooo enjoyable.
it's just a crush ok, nothing major. just to remind myself i'm normal. hahah...
ok, that's all for now. have a nice rest of the week. will be a busy weekend for me.

been thinking

reading back the past few entries made me realise something. that's so not me. i sound so negative. i'm an eternal optimist. i usually find something good even when things are not going the way i planned it.
maybe this is the first time that i'm facing a situation where i need to question where i want to go in life. but i'm not the one to give up easily. i normally finish up whatever i've started, not leave it hanging somewhere out there. i do want to do it, even if it will take me longer (and cost me much more).
so, even if i'm not doing well in anything, i'll make sure i finish it up. i'll make sure there's closure before i move on to other things i want to do.
ok, going to do my work now. have a nice week ahead people. stay positive and keep that smile on your face. you really never know who's looking at you c",) (",) (,") :-)

the waiter and the spoon

pics are being edited. for now, enjoy this :

Last night, I went with some friends out to a new restaurant, and noticed that the waiter who took our order carried a spoon in his shirt pocket. It seemed a little strange. When the busboy brought our water and utensils, I noticed he also had a spoon in his shirt pocket. Then I looked around I saw that all the staff had spoons in their pockets.
When the waiter came back to serve our soup I asked, "Why the spoon?"
"Well," he explained, "the restaurant's owners hired a consulting firm to revamp all our processes. After several months of analysis, they concluded that the spoon was the most frequently dropped utensil. It represents a drop frequency of approximately 3 spoons per table per hour. If our personnel are better prepared, we can reduce the number of trips back to the kitchen and save 15 man-hours per shift."
As luck would have it, I dropped my spoon and he was able to replace it with his spare. "I'll get another spoon next time I go to the kitchen instead of making an extra trip to get it right now."
I was impressed!
I also noticed that there was a string hanging out of the waiter's fly.
Looking around, I noticed that all the waiters had the same string hanging from their flies. So before he walked off, I asked the waiter, "Excuse me, but can you tell me why you have that string right there?"
"Oh, certainly!" Then he lowered his voice. "Not everyone is so observant... That consulting firm I mentioned also found out that we can save time in the restroom. By tying this string to the end of our "you know what", we can pull it out without touching it and eliminate the need to wash our hands, shortening the time spent in the restroom by 76.39 percent."
"Hhmmm...After you get it out, how do you put it back?" I asked
"Well," he whispered, "I don't know about the others... but I use the spoon."

HAHAH!!!

watch at your own discretion

what you are about to watch will be a little disturbing, to say the least.
i was greatly disturbed when i saw what was happening, this being my first time watching a live performance of the kuda kepang. if your are pregnant, i would suggest you not play the video.








these are all the videos i got to take before the phone memory got full.
pictures will have to wait. i lost the usb cables and the forgot to bring back the one and only cable that i use in the office.

i'm ok, thank you

thank you to those who asked. i'm fine, Alhamdulillah.
like i mentioned, it's just the unbalanced hormones in me. i really don't know why i felt like that.
anyway, yesterday was one of those days you call 'hari bodoh'.
i didn't plan on what to bring for lunch so had to go out. the day started off with a nice cool rainy day. so, lunchtime i decided it was still cool enough to keep the jacket on. bad mistake there. i was almost melting with the heat before the bus came. it was too late to go back to change so next plan was to walk without stopping or looking anywhere except when needed.
therefore, yesterday was the record time i stayed out during lunchtime. took the 12.15pm bus out and came back in the 1pm bus.
next time, remind me to look out the window before leaving the cold office. haha...
today, one part of the additional load is over. the other part will be at the end of this month. hopefully i do well enough to pass. could be a new career line for me, maybe ;-)

what is wrong with me?

i don't know why, but PMS is hitting really hard this month.
the news i'm hearing is so not helping at all either. nevermind, don't ask what the news is/are. i don't want to share it/them.
i'm grateful that my life is on track. i'm not down in the dumps (yet), but i really can't help feeling down, especially after what i got to know of last night. (no, the fact that france lost the world cup is NOT making me feel this way. i'm not that fanatic a football fan. just watch the world cup for the spirit of the game, that's all.)
sometimes some news just hits you right smack in you face that it literally stops you right there. makes you think if the decision you've made is really the right one or not. the many what ifs questions starts forming in your head.
ok, now i'm getting even more confused. have to go n chill the only way i know that will help............

too bad

ok, france lost. it was so disappointing.
i'll be waiting for the next one then.

ole! ole!

yes!! my (second) prediction came true.
let's see if my prediction for the finals come true. not going to say it here just yet.
will have to see if i'll have to eat up my words or not.
the initial prediction of a Germany vs Brazil in the final match apparently didn't materialise after the kings of samba were sent home.
didn't regret the less than 2 hrs sleep i got last night. was worth the wait.

hanging in there

one more paper and i'm done...NOT!!
there's still the additional load i decided to take up a few months ago. it's as important too.
this has got to be the most loaded year for me. on the bright side, i'm doing something i want to do. if i don't make it, at least i've tried.
live life with no regrets. whatever you choose, the important thing is, IT'S YOUR DECISION. don't do it just because everyone else is doing it.
ok, now i'm just rambling. ignore me. i'm just too overwhelmed. heh!
