Emergency tickets (again)

It looks like a beautiful Sunday but I got paged twice today and got an emergency ticket a while ago *grr* Looks like I even have to work on Sundays :( Why oh why?

Nevertheless, it's a great day and I brought grandma out for good dinner and supermarket shopping :) I didn't go to the malls but ended up playing 2 hours of snooker.

Sunny Sunday

I manage to wake up early (as in 1PM) so it's not that bad compared to the previous Sunday, haha. It's so hot in the afternoon and it makes me feel like staying home. However, I have the mood for house hunting today. I feel energetic and I'll continue taking Vitamin B's *lol*

| Saturday |

I only took 1 meal today which was dinner. I came back at around 12AM midnight and watched a little bit of Astro (channel 80). It was a snooker match between six time world champion Steve Davis against Ding Jun Hui. I got a little boring so I stopped watching and started downloaded some mails from work. I also check if there were tickets for me and it's like working from home at 1AM Sunday morning. I never imagine I'll do something like that but it is to my benefit and at least, it won't be so bad when I return to work on Tuesday.

I haven't plan on what to do tomorrow and probably going out to the malls. I'm hungry now and I need food. Someone get me food :p It's sad that they don't deliver pizza's at this hour.

RM300 photo

I went for night chanting yesterday as it was a vegetarian day for me, new moon and besides, it's a Friday night. On the way back, I beat a traffic light and got a photo taken. If I'm terribly lucky, I'll be getting a RM300 ticket and no discounts for it. This is what I call "suey" :(

I slept through my Saturday until the evening. I have no idea why I'm so tired but anyway, I hope to sleep early tonight and make sure I wake up like a normal human being on Sunday morning. I've no further plans for the day but dinner with grandma as I haven't been taking her out for a while.

I use to tell others that life is meaningful and beautiful but I could never imagine mine being so lousy.

Vegetarian

Today is a new moon in the Chinese Lunar calendar and I'm on vegetarian. I only practice it twice a month but hopefully I'll be a full vegetarian one day. At first, I really had a hard time getting used to it but after "practicing" it for some time, it's much easier :)

I also happen to feed the puppies on the construction site opposite my office. I shared with a buddy and got them food. They were all rather hungry and some are quite skinny too :(

I did a puppy headcount today and there are only 9 left. Don't know what happened to the other 3 *sigh*

Tong Hua

Meaning of the song - "Tong Hua" (I took it from somewhere so no credits goes to myself, haha)

I have forgotten how long was it,
Since I last heard you,
Telling me your favorite story,
I have been thinking for a very long time,
I’m beginning to feel paranoid,
Did I make any mistakes again?

You came and tell me with the tears in your eyes,
That fairytales are all lies,
It’s impossible for me to be your prince charming,
Maybe you will not understand,
After the moment when you said you loved me,
The stars in my sky, are beginning to shine and shimmer.

I’m willing to be, the angel you love,
In the fairytales,
Open my arms wide,
And let it become wings, to protect you,
You have to believe,
Believe that we will be like the fairytale,
With happiness and joy as the ending.

Everything is our beautiful ending.

10 minutes late

I was 10 minutes late again this morning and my car pool buddies waited for me :( I indeed feel guilty for being late most of the time (not always - hehe) but the 7:58AM train just left when I got into the station. I'll try my best to be there on time tomorrow morning to catch that train.

On the way to work, buddies stopped at the petrol station before the Sg. Besi toll. There was a Mc. D and I got myself a "Sausage McMuffin with Egg" :p It tastes really good but I should get 2 of it rather than 1. It's not filling enough as it's rather small and plus, I'm hungry - haha

When I got nothing to do in the car, I took out my phone and snap-snap a bit :) Yes yes, I know I'm silly *lol*

Full day training

I'm having a full day training at work today. I brought my notebook in to keep myself "occupied" :p I'm suppose to get a house but still hunting for one till today. I guess it's taking too long but there are just too many factors involved.

I plan to go for walks in the mall this weekend. I want to start going out and look at new humans after meeting up with the same group of humans everyday, haha. Who am I going with is going to be an answer which I don't even know. I'll probably go alone :(

I only had a cup of coffee for the day and a can of Coke for lunch. I'm terribly sleepy now *yawns*

Please, don't tell me I look gay. I need to put some effects on the photo so that I don't look so ugly. I know it doesn't make a difference but what da heck!

Dizmal Tuesday

It's another day at work and it was raining outside in the evening. I was anxiously waiting for 5:30PM so that I could go home. You know what? Working life is sometimes boring and you get the same old routine every week, month, year. You work hard but still not getting rich. Bosses are sometimes bias and well, nothing is fair in this world of course.

Eventhough I am contented with what I have but I am just as determine to achieve more than this. Am I greedy? Emm, I don't hope to be a billionaire but ideally, USD$ 100,000,000 will do - haha. I hope I'm not greedy *lol*

The past 48 hours

How was my weekend? I'd say I spent 43% of the time sleeping and 56% of my time rotting. I'm glad the 1% turned out well, haha. I watched the national snooker tournament, played some snooker and realized that I played horrible, no where near "television" standard. I looked at the mirror and I found out that I'm looking at one of the ugliest guy on earth. Man, nothing is going my way and I guess I'm just down on luck and everything is terrible lately but life goes on.

My hours are messed up, sleeping very very "early" in the weekends and became a night owl. I always have problems adapting to sleeping hours on Sunday night but I have to cos Monday is a working day. If I'm ever elected to be the Prime Minister, I'll assure you guys Monday is an off day so please, vote for me if you see me competing for elections someday, haha.

Btw, I happen to capture a shot of a burst pipe while I was driving yesterday. It looks like a fountain aint it? I wish it was spraying out money, lol

Good weather - Thursday morning

Time flies pretty fast ain't it? It's already Thursday and weekends is fast approaching. It is another 2 weeks to "Labour Day" so I'll definitely be looking forward to that as well since it'll be a public holiday and I don't have to come to work :p

Am I lazy? Well, maybe but I feel better relaxing and resting at home instead. when I was a kid, I wanted to grow up and start working quick but when I'm already working (like now), I feel that there isn't much time for myself but only 2 days in a week.

Lorry hogger

There are always pathetic and selfish drivers on the road. This morning I met with at least two and honking doesn't even help. I don't understand what's wrong with these people :) Not only they are driving slow on the fast lane, they don't even care about giving way to others. I believe this is also a factor that contributes to traffic congestion in the city. Think about it - if everyone drives at 60km/h on the fast lane, what happens?

I manage to capture a shot of a lorry which drives at a pace which I regard as "SLOW" on the fast lane.

Single

My marital status have been "single" since end of last year. Come to think about it, this is the longest "no relationship" period I've ever had since my first time having a gf. It's been really long and part of the reason might be that I'm ugly and lousy, haha. Ok, I know how bad it feels to be one so please excuse me if I complain too much :p

Everyone around me has a stable relationship, some even got married and started their own families. It's so nice :)

Puppies

My colleagues and I shared some money to buy rice for some puppies opposite my office block. They are so cute aren't they? Unfortunately, they are hungry and not well fed. Poor thing :( The mother didn't eat at all and let her puppies have the food.

Proud to be a Malaysian? :)

Malaysians really need to change the way they think and see things. I believe it's the people's mentality that has to be changed and revolutionized in order to achieve the country's vision.

Some people are rude, impolite, uncivillized. Can you imagine a public bus driver that drives like a mad man, zig-zagging up and down and still think he's great? Malaysian drivers also have no respect for pedestrian and when they see you cross, they might even accelerate more to scare the heck out of you. This is a country where you need to see if there are cars coming even when the light is red. Is it a failure in our education system or people just can't understand and behave?

In LRT's, everyone rushes into the train even before you could come out. The same thing happens when you try to come out from the lift. I haven't been taking the bus for some time but I believe it will still be the case.

There are plenty more things to talk about but some are sensitive issues so it's best to keep out of it. I know it doesn't make much difference and as a Chinese, I think this isn't going to be a great country to stay in years to come. Let's just hope things doesn't go out of hand.

Too much sleep = diabetes

NEW YORK - Getting too little -- or too much -- sleep may increase a person's risk of developing type 2 diabetes, new research suggests.

"Sleep duration may be a novel risk factor for the development of clinical diabetes," conclude the researchers in the March issue of Diabetes Care.

Dr. Henry Klar Yaggi from Yale University in New Haven, Conn. and two colleagues studied the long-term (15-year) impact of sleep duration on the development of diabetes in more than 1,100 middle-aged and elderly men who were free of diabetes in 1987-1989 and were followed until 2004.

As you can see, sleeping too much might cause diabetes :( I must learn how to sleep 7-8 hours a day and ensure I sleep on time. My sleep is backlogged since years ago and that might be the reason why I need lotsa sleep, haha.

Different songs @ my blog

I know it's boring for people to listen the same old music everytime they refresh this page and hence, I've placed a script that'll randomly play different background music. Just press "F5" and you'll be able to see the difference. Of course, you might get the same song sometimes, haha. I've got 3 songs uploaded now and will keep them updated once in a while. If any folks have good mp3 songs and would like to share with me, please feel free to email me at alvinn.ong@gmail.com

Relationship

Credits to Michelle :) I actually got this from her blog:

RELATIONSHIPS -of all kinds- are like sand held in your hand. Held loosely, with an openhand, the sand remains where it is. The minute you close your hand and squeeze tightly to hold on, the sand trickles through your fingers. You may hold on to some of it, but most will be spilled. A relationship is like that. Held loosely, with respect and freedom for the other person, it is likely to remain intact. But hold too tightly, too possessively, and the relationship slip away and lost.

Totally unproductive

I spent my Saturday doing things that are totally unproductive. I was a little unhappy and in destructive mode but was alright after a while, haha. Why is life so unmeaningful? I don't even understand what life is for. I'm afraid of illness but not death. Illness is scary cos we need to suffer for it. Normal sickness is already bad enough so I hope I won't contract any dangerous diseases in future. Please please please, don't want to get sick :(

Happy holidays !

I had a good lunch, so full and sleepy now :) I began to feel that coffee isn't really helping sometimes so perhaps I'm immune to it already *lol* I'll be on annual leave next Monday so won't be returning to office till Wednesday. Isn't it COOL? Haha. Ok, I gotta go for "Ching Ming" this weekends, have a good hair cut and sleep enough to recharge my lost energy.

Happy holidays to all of you and have lots of fun too.

Ah Teong

I met my long lost pal Aaron for dinner yesterday. He went all the way to HK, dumping me and his beloved gf to work and further his career. Although the duration is short (2-3 months), it's long enough to make me feel so sad, thinking of him always. Thanks so much for the Coke and stuffs you bought for me and as a sign of appreciation, I'm posting your photo here without charges :)

Dinner @ Chilli's

It was one of my friend's birthday yesterday so I spent her dinner at Chilli's KLCC. It's my 2nd time this week there and I do agree they serve pretty good food. The other day I had "Lamb Shoulder" for lunch and yesterday, I ordered "Grilled Salmon Steak". For drinks, I asked for "Green Guava" at first but it tasted horrible so I refilled pineapple instead. I had a total of 5 cups throughout the meal - good eh? Hahaa

I've been eating too much meat lately so I must try to cut down :(

Wednesday morning

I shifted into the new office block and things hasn't been good since then. In fact, I never enjoyed the idea of moving and I rather sit on my old place than this one :) Nevertheless, life goes on and I still gotta work whether I like it or not.

It's a sunny and hot morning as usual but I certainly hope it'll be a better day at work ahead. I met my boss's boss as I came into office. How lucky *lol* Anyway, I'm getting a coffee now cos I really need one :p

I knock my car :(

My car rear bumper has always been the victim of getting knocked or being knocked by others *lol* I was at KLCC parking on Saturday afternoon and as I was reversing my car towards a parking lot, I either knock onto the car behind or he drove out from his lot without realizing me.

It was a loud "bang" which I thought it's going to be quite damaging but when I got out from the car, I was relieved that my bumper was only scratched and a little dented. The gentleman from the other car came out and he doesn't talk much. His car is rather old and there were no damages so he said it's fine :)

This is the first time I bang onto someone and I bought 4D Toto for my car plate number which I didn't strike. I not only had a scratched dented bumper but also lost RM20 to Toto :p
