ATM Machine Problem

Well not really a lucky day for me coz in order for me to find JPJ at Bandar Permaisuri, it took me almost close to a good 30-45 minutes to locate it.

Finally I found the place with much guidance and a nice parking lot, yeay! Almost forgot to mention, the purpose of going to JPPJ is not to pay fine ticket or to take new care number plate BUT to replace my lost driving license. Opps, I did it again! Well well well, those who knows me well, it happens quite frequently but with different things that I lost. It can be phone, wallet, jewelry or something insignificant that I don’t even bother to find it back.

Back to JPJ, I was told that I will require a passport photo and a form filled with my details before I can actually get to the waiting queue. Again, I didn’t bring it with me, so obviously I will have to find the nearest shop that I can actually get one. While I’m searching on the side walk of a row of shop lot, I saw a 7 with ATM machine. Conveniently, that should be a nice spot for me to withdraw some money for my own use.

Here you go, I put in the ATM card and everything seems to be okay. Enter the X amount that I would like to withdraw but ends up a few minutes in processing the transaction. After waited more than 5 minutes anxiously, it actually disappoints me a THANK YOU for using AM Bank without my money! Here go my ATM card waiting me to put it back to my wallet. I was like what, don’t tell me that you have deducted my account the X amount of money that I intend to withdraw. Please……

I waited for another few minutes with a dumbfounded expression to see if it is machine which respond slow to the request but there is no sound at all (you know, the sound of the machine calculating the dollar notes). Immediately I walk to the Maybank branch and check the account balance. Bingo, balance has been deducted with the x amount that I withdraw.

Immediately I make a call to AM Bank to lodge a complaint and they says it will be managed in a week time. A smarty like me (=p), of course will again lodge a report at Maybank branch to be on the safe side.

After one week…

A call to AM Bank Customer Service:
“Hi, I’m Ms. M here, I would like to check the status of my case.
- REPEATING MYSELF AGAIN ON THE CASE -
Hi, Ms. M, I will follow up on your case and will call you back by end of business day today.”
……………………….. 5-6PM, my phone rang.
”Hi, Ms. M, sorry that there are no updates at the moment because it is basically the other vendor late in paying back.
OKAY, so can you follow up the status for me? Yes Ms M, I’ll be calling you back on tomorrow morning. Thank you very much then”

Surprise that AM Bank service is not bad where at least to say it actually exceeds my expectation by a good follow up from the agent. I was thinking, hey… not too bad. Sadly, the story has not end! The next day, there were no call, I call back to the customer service to locate the agent for few time on the whole week, he has no been calling back. I tried to seek other agent help but they said to channel the request back to him and I have repeated by phone number for 4-5 times!

After two weeks…

Finally I call to Maybank, and surprisingly I only have to wait for 7 minutes to get to speak to a customer care agent. Wow… but another agent with a not very helpful guidance. His advice is to wait and check your account daily whether the refund has been done. What!!! Give it a try. They are really testing my patience and running thinner from time to time.

Today…

Make a call to Maybank again and waited 30minutes! This time I have a better solution where I suppose to call the branch to check the status of my complaint because it is a different system. I was given a the branch number and this time around a very helpful lady is helping me to check the status. Thankfully, the refund will be on next week Monday.

I feel very sorry for the local banking service hence we are promoting ourselves to be at the edge of technology. Firstly, the ATM machine is basically not my problem and what is the delay of the refund. If I would like to use the money to pay for any loan and due to ATM machine malfunction I might be late hence who will pay for the interest or late charges. Secondly, in my case, I don’t see a clear party in taking the ownership. After much of a search only I know that I should call to the branch. Process was never clearly define. It’s a mess!

Remembrance of Mr. LSH

He has started a different journey in life where he is destine to about a week ago. I have not mentioned about his leaving much, not because I don’t care, but there’s nothing much to be discussed about.

This is the first time I ever really express my little feelings about it where the saddest people will be his parents, sister, relatives or in short his significant people in life has the most concern. I have not been very close to him since I left Sony as free lancer few years back but I had a really great time being a friend of his. He has never failed to shine no matter where he goes as he can really talk and ends with a big laugh.

It seems very unreal… sudden… and to lose a life it seems to be harder to live! No matter where he is now, rest in peace.

hmm... How should i spend my holiday?

Today is my first day of the two weeks holiday. Yesterday I think of bunch of things to do so that it will keep me occupied. First I need to settle my personal insurance which I have a little problem in getting to the company during office hour. You know, when they want you to purchase the insurance policy, they will travel anywhere to get you sign it but for cancelling it, "Sorry but you need to go to XXX's HQ". Great!

so, what's next? Hey get some exercise going. Maybe go for 30-45mins of Cardio! That would be around lunch time. After that i'll take nice rest on the sofa with some soothing music and most importantly my story book. The most ironic part is that this particular book where I found it from my wardrobe is dated one year ago, yeah, I know you may ask " Shouldn't be books at the book shelves?", and yes I don't have a book shelves. Finally I have time to read the story books. Basically I have two choices, one is chic lit and another one is James Paterson where he's famous in writing fiction pertaining to crime investigation cases.

I contemplate a while on which book to choose where on my right I have chic lit wherelse on my left I have thriller fiction. My voices told me that, " Hey, you are on holiday, so lets start with something fun and relax to read", that would effectively means chic lit.

Back to the story book, it named as Me and Mr. Darcy. This is not a new book that you will find on the bookstore but it is nice! The words will have you imagine the scene almost immediately. You will laugh out when things are funny. The story is very much similar to Bridget Jones's Diary and other with same genres but the this kind of story will not retire at any moment for me cause every women wanted to find the perfect man. The PERFECT MAN might be different with each individuals. I have only read 50 pages of the book yesterday night, hence, I can't wait to read more.

Let's see when I'm back later of the day i have all the plan work out!

Stay tuned...

Pre Valentines

I don't usually celebrate V Day outside nor having any special feeling on this day. Now is already 12th Feb but I don't feels like celebrating at all after the incident. Maybe my feelings toward him is not as strong as before anymore. I found out myself, holding back a lot more now to keep myself save.

I believe time can heal but I really feels like not to do anything on V day!

Ms M & Mr J

Everything seems to be wonderful and sweet although we do have small arguments sometime but it is no big deal until one day his eyes keep looking at a girl when I'm sitting beside of him. Yes, it is whole day!

Personally I don't think I'm a green eyed monster and I don't really care if he's looking at other girl when we are out to shopping mall or wherever there's a pretty girl walkby. Staring at a girl it is still acceptable as I don't really know her so I will complaint a while and then I will just says forget it.

I feel really embarassed and disturbed when a girl he stares at looking back at me. The girl must be thinking, why this guy with this gal keep staring at me. He has a girlfriend beside him. Maybe they start judging my outlook. This is only my thought and it may not be the same way they think of but this is how I feel. Anyway, I've overcome it as I read through a lot of articles that GUY can't stop themselves from looking at other girls that attract their eyes. It just registered to their brain to work this way. Haha... honestly, myself also looking at the pretty girls and what's wrong if he doing so? NO BIG DEAL!!!

BUT, what really makes MS M upset is that, he's staring a girl during a gathering for whole day. Yes, god damn whole day. I try to tell myself not to think too much and cannot be too sensitive on this. We are having talks and drinks on a round dining table with friends. I was seated beside him and the girl seated opposite us. His eyes never turn to me but only at her. When she walks away, she will keep looking at the door whereabout is her. Is this making any girls sick? I keep everything inside and stop myself from thinking about it but after few hours, I really can't do it anymore and leave the table. I run myself to the frontyard and trying to cool off myself there. After 10-15 minutes, he found me at last but I don't feel like talking or seeing him. I don't want to have any arguments or unhappy scene in front of so many people, so I just keep telling myself that I'm too sensitive. I followed him back to the dining area without saying much. After a while, he's asking me whether I want to see the dog then I answered why not. The girl she's staring at is there playing with the dog. His eyes again never go away from her!!! As usual, I chose to escape. I went in back to the house and he followed me. He bring me out for a ciggie break and a walk. He feel something is not right and he wants to know why I'm so upset that time but I never say a single word as I still think, I think I'm too sensitive.

So we have wonderful time playing at the frontyard, looking at the greens, chatting about everything. In the evening, I went to have my bath and after that, it is dinner time! Everything seems back to normal now until the girl she's looking at whole day re-emerge to the scene. His eyes staring at her no matter where she are!!!!!!!!!! For god sake, I don't want to have a glance at all how he's looking at her! I don't want to see! Furthermore, I don't think she's pretty or attractive!

After the dinner, we have a walk and talk about this issue. I no longer think the problem is on me but on him. I confronted him and he finally admitted it. He was drawn to her in a very natural way and when she talks, he feels like listening. I was so angry, upset and disappointing. I feel like is that I'm that ugly or my voice is that irritating!

Thinking over, WHY do I have to think that way! It's not worth to have this kind of feeling because of him. I will set him free to do whatever shit he wants but I will not lose my dignity because of him. I'm proud to be miss M and Mr J has been forgiven but I can never forget!

Life is short and I don't want to be unhappy anymore because of him! Not worth!

It was a depressing, miserable, heartbreaking YEAR 2007 but on the other hand it was also a cheerful and joyful year. Hey Ms M, wake up!!! You are not writing sensibly. It is a confusing statement! Hahaha... Practically YES it is confusing but it was how I describe it. Let me recollect what happened last year.



Basically it starts off with seeing fireworks. Numbers of drinking, partying, clubbing and travelling. I went through a breakup and he's a Mr. Nice Guy which gave me everything I wanted but it doesn't work out. I really appreciate the things that he done for me for past two years. He's still a very supportive friend of mine which I will appreciate him for sure.


I get to know a very special friend named Mr. B. I was claimed to be an arrogant person by him eventually we are quite a closed friend now, as I can talk anything to him outright. He's going oversea for few months for his new assignment in new company, but I'm not going to cry (=p) cause from time to time, he'll be back to visit us but still, I'll miss you!


Here comes a very special person in my life that I met in a club, named "J". I can't imagine myself talking, walking, holding hands, cuddling, laughing, crying, watching tv, cooking and dreaming with him. He shares my everything. He's always a good listener when I'm whining. He always tries to change himself when I'm complaining. I really appreciate his effort and thanks for his love. Hope this will last for many years to come. Naive thinking... yes... I really don't want to be too realistic now... I just want to enjoy and be grateful of the things that he had done for me and. Love ya!


My sister pregnant at last... I'm going to be Auntie M soon and my niece name is Chloe. It's the best'est thing happened in YEAR 2007. I can't wait for the beautiful princess to breathe the air and taste the water, listen to the beautiful voices, see colorful earth and walk on the ground. Wish she can be the healthiest baby on earth.

I had the very first family trip to oversea cause most of the time, we travel on our own. It's a nice experience and we had a wonderful time there. I helped my sister make up before we go club at Sugar and advise my brother on shirts to buy as souvenier for his gal friend. Eat together and run together while raining. Accompany my bro buy XXX magazine without parental guidance at night and it turn out to be an ugly woman posting. It's just so fun! Go 711 to buy 'siu mai' and eat it just like any other hongkie do. The most memorable part is the fireworks at Disney Land.

It's a wonderful year, full of tears and joy!!! Is that what we call life?

For YEAR 2008, I wish everyone to stay healthy and joyful as always. PEACE!

How many crossroads do we walk by and made choices in life? Why do I ask? Well, I'm currently at the crossroads and try to figure out the path ahead that I'm going to choose. I was at the same situation before for my relationship and now come to my career. Everything is so stable now, i become skilled at the job I'm doing everyday, gain a lot of diplomatic skills since I joined 'X' company and I'm currently finding something new to venture. Somehow or rather, something inside me stopping me to do so, I always think I need to learn more on the current responsibility that I'm holding. Shall I give myself another year?

Out of nowhere, there are a lot of work opportunities from other department and company which makes the matter worst. Around next month, I hope everything will be settled. I'm not rushing into making any conclusive and drastic decision at this particular point of time. Go slow, and I know I can do it... be strong... as always!

What is true love? Does it exists? When we are in a relationship, we will tell how affectionate we are with each other but it just won't last. People said "True love will last untill your last breathe in this world". I wonder how true is the statement and I believe majority of people out there doubt about it as well.

True love from parents is the most genuine love. They are there for us since we were born and give everything they can to make sure we live healthily and happily without requesting any in return.

I was so into someone until I lost myself including my pride and dignity. I forgot the feeling on how a guy should respect a woman. I was really naive back there but without the experience, I will never grow. The funny part when I see him now, I will feel sad because we were once so close with each other and we are now total stranger. *knock my head... i'm thinking too much, WAKE UP... *

I've found 'someone', I'm not sure the ending of this relationship but does it matter? 'Someone' is definitely not romantic type but 'someone' just have something that attracts me but it's so abstract that I can't describe it in words. I'm happy to have 'someone' with me now... 520

~*~*~ Mad Day ~*~*~

the reason i blog immediately right after i went home and took my bath is that today, many things happenned and my emotion of the day just like roller coaster... i don't know how should i digest it!!!

so i ordered a kilkenny and everyone ordered their individual drinks... after that, a moron waiter insited me to show them and identification card... this is the most funny part... can be the joke of the year... the waiter said he need my IC to prove that im old enough to drink alcohol!!!!!!! wat the f#$%... they are really annoying!!!! this is really testing my EQ and the worst part, i didnt bring my driving license and IC with me... so i gave up on the kilkenny to J and drink mango juice... nice one chilis!!!! excellence!!! then we got relocated to a bigger table which can fit 8 person... this is the biggest table they have.. but we are really pissed of with the customer service there and we decided to head to Monte's instead... damn pissed... NO MORE CHILIS!!!! the place suck to the max!!!!

so here are the happy moment... i'm the happiest one thou cause i can drink beer and smoke in Monte's!!!! hahahaha.... almost 8 something everyone arrived at last and order our own individual food... have a really nice chat over there and introduce everyone to ms K... sometimes when K speak something in canto which those banana colleagues very hard to understand... they all will only har... wat... wakakakaka stupid... oops i'm one of them too but i'm better... =p

I'm really panic this time, head straight to the location she told me.... this is really scary and it is the first time of my life facing this kind of situation... on the way there, i tried to call her many times but she didn't pick up the phone... i'm so so so worried... and then i sms SJ up cause i know he's watching movie so i don't dare to call him... but after a while there are still no reply from him and i'm really so frustrated cause still can't get in touch with K... so i called M, and he willing to help... i asked him to keep calling K so that you can make sure she is well enough to pick up call... but she didnt.... so i drive as fast as i can and after the tol i saw her car with emergency signal on... this is really freaking me off... then come down from my car and walk straight to her.. but the door is locked... so i keep knocking on the window and she seems to be not answering.... i'm really panic and don't know what to do next... but after a while she unlock the door and she really not breathing well... as though like she is having asthma... so scary man!!!! then i call M to come immediately cause i really don't know what else i can do... then i just keep on try to help her but i know ntg i can do... when M come... i feel much more better cause i really dont know how to face this kind of situation... after around 30-45 mins... she feels better and M escort her home... at last SJ called but it's a bit too late...

Some time people is very hard headed towards the word "FAIRNESS". Yes, I'm one of the idiot! Actually from my point of view, I don't understand the existence of this word in the first place! The first day we breathe, the world seems so beautiful. The longer we live, the dark side of the world seems to emerse more clearly. Why I said that, I will explain later but first and foremost, I would really like to know to origin of this word. Where should I start? Meaning of "Fairness"? Relate very closely to another moronic word "Justice"... equality...

So I went dictionary.com website and perform a word search, there I type aiF Aee I Rrr eN yeE eS eS (Indian wannabe)! Yay! Fairness. Why I pick this website? It is because I don't have an Oxford Dictionary at home, need to pay in order to use OED website as online dictionary, and it is quite complete. I think dictionary.com have to pay me for being so hard sell. Opps... back to the defination of "Fairness". I mulled over the website and below is one of the defination that I picked:

free from bias, dishonesty, or injustice: a fair decision; a fair judge.

After few minutes, I would like to create a sentence with all the above words. Human are not free from bias, everyone tell lies which leads to dishonesty, men and women, children and adults alike, injustice decision made everyday no matter is from the judges, juries or even the police force whereby bad people still free from punishment although they are unethical, violated laws, commit crime and it only shows one thing, the world will never have fair decision or not even to mention fair judgement! Gosh... at last, I can express my dissatisfaction in just one sentence! o o o ... okay... feeling lot more better now... It's time for my to find the origin.

I type wikipedia.com this time. After a few seconds the page loaded and I type "FAIRNESS" on the search field and it pops up the origin of Justice. See... I told you, it is very much related to the justice! So I glance through the whole page. While scrolling down, I spotted the word Fairnes and I stop my finger from scrolling down using the mouse, but sadly, I still can't find the origin!!! Forget it!!!

hmmm... it's time to tell you why I pick the word today! I'm came back from work very late today. It's almost 12am. I drive my car and when I was few hundred meters away, I spotted around 10 cement bags laying the place where I usually park my car. I mean how can they put those things in front of my house, furthermore they should have known that I need more space to park my car. The "THEY" means my moronic neighbor who is rich enough to renovate their house! So I tell myself, if I still see those things when I'm back from work again tomorrow, I will either kill my neighbor's dog, scratch his car or tell them to put all those rubbish aside. Of course I choose the third option. I'm not a mad dog!

The story haven't finish yet. I can't afford to allocate any time for surfing on the internet today during working hour, so my itchy hands search for the internet to read news paper online after dinner. The headline news, increase of bumiputras equity! First of all, I'm not racist, but why do they need this kind of privillege? If they are good, why do they need protection from the government? Am I Malaysian, I wonder? Oh no... I'm a chinese that live in Malaysia, that's why. Hello we are citizen of Malaysia! CRAP!!!!!!!!

Here is the saddest part, one of the victim riding motorcycle was being kick down and get robbed. He work very hard to get the salary he earned and those stupid doofuss doing nothing but to robbed other people money. The victim decided to leave the job he had in Singapore and return back to his hometown.

There's too many thing which is unfair and injustice in this whole wide world. What can this tiny little human can do?

Note: Don't worry about me, this is just part of the way of releasing stress after long hour work. Balance of life is the best thing that I should learn. I still seeking it. Hopefully one day I understand the balance of life more and obtain it.

OMG!!!!

This is bad... very bad... I do not know where to start off with because this two months too many things had happened... both happy and sad thing... sigh... how should I start?

Let's do a summary:
-Penang Trip
First gulp of blue label!!!!!!
-Screw up in one of the given task!
-I'd a wonderful and memorable birthday celebration.
-Successfully completed the shit task which before that failed to do so
-Heineken Thirst Party - Armanda Groove Sound System
Arrive at Garry's house earlier to drink more liquor before going to the rave. We get high a bit but upon arrival to the rave party, I can't feel it anymore. Dance and sweat until 1-2am then we leave the rave and head to teochew porridge. I think by the time we go home it's already 2-3AM.
-Neway Karaoke
Everyone must be wondering what so special about this event since I go for Karaoke almost every week. Hehehe... the point here is that we sang for 7 hours. From 5pm to 12am close to 1am.
-PD Trip
As usual all get drunk and play like mad!
-Fortune telling by Zodiac
Fun fun fun and will take note of something which I really need to change!

As normal human like me, after going to so many places and did not have sufficient rest, at last I fall sick last week and my voice still not fully recover yet. Hey hey no worries... I got a lot sick cat companion so no worries. =p

I think I shall update the blog more frequently now so I can get more details in sharing my sadness and happiness of my life with everyone. ^.^

-End-

*Off the track*

Hokay... it's been almost a month since the last post. Don't get me wrong, it's not that I'm busy and have no time to update it but the word "LAZY" suites me more. Ha! Well let's forget about everything about work related matters which always make me feels miserable, but I should talk about my trip to Penang this weekend.

This is the first trip that we are going to have this year and we gather a total of eight buddies to be on this trip. Here's the plan, we start off at 2AM... yeah you didn't get me wrong... it is 2AM but not 2PM... sound ridiculous? anything is possible or nothing is impossible for us... MAD! The first stop will be at Jln Ipoh for supper and we shall start our journey to Penang after that.

I hope no one will fluff our trip. I just want to enjoy a getaway with my bunch of "bestest" of the best friends... hahaha...

Well that's it... time for me to get some rest... ciao...

Say No for hopping job

I mulled over on the job offer and I'd decided to say NO! I do not want myself gone out on a limb while I'm not able to commit the hour and discipline that the job requires. I have no hurry to change another job although I'm not happy with my current superior. Of course I do understand wherever you go, there's people you dont like and it depends on how you handles it. I do think I handle it too emotionally which somehow I think it is immatured.

Perhaps just treat it as lesson learned and moving on to a better person is the best that I should do. I'm gaining back passion on work lately. I starts to communicate more with my so called "TS" although she always deligate job to me which I'd no idea with while she still the same old day pretending busy.

The good thing is that, I came to office on time today, 9AM! Hahaha are you dumbfounded when you read this =p So while I'm walking in to the office, one of my collegue gave me a small present which really surprised me. She told me this is a token of appreciation for the KT session. I'm astonished! I don't know what to say next and walk away. Back to my usual working place and I look at the present and question myself, what I did? Then I message her and apologise for reacting strangely. Appreciation needs to be shown in this circumstances, so I say "Thank you so much and you really need not to do this as it is part of my responsibility to KT my job to you". Well she brighten up my day although it's nothing to other people but it's an important gift to me. I really appreciates it...

Brazil Lost in Quater Final match =(

WTF! Brazil lost again to France just like eight years ago! For me, this year World Cup has ended for good. Argentina lost to Germany and Brazil lost to France. Their World Cup journey ended much too fast and unpredictable. At least Argentina put out a good fight with Germany and I think that match was the most exciting match for 2006 World Cup. As for Brazil, I really can't see their effort to fight France hence, both striker not performing at all. Sucks...

Sa Sa Pau is a nick name of my beloved dumbo colleague. He set up his own blog site and I'm here to advertise it. Here's the link. Please show your support to him by posting as much comments as you can. He's creative but mostly creative stuff is pretty hard to understand. I mulled over his blog and I still can't get what's the Goof Day means.

Note: For those who is n0t so good in English like me, you may want to get a dictionary while reading his blog which is full of CRAP!

*~*~*~*~ Career Path ~*~*~*~*

27th June 2006

I go office five days a week, average nine hours a day without any direction and vision of my future. What's my specialisation? I'm carrying a name "IT Operation Specialist" but there's nothing I specialise in. What team I belong to? Am I capable enough to perform in work? Is this what I want? All these question cause me having imsonia for few days.

At this point of time, I don't really know what I want and I believe this is the stage that I need to make a crucial decision that works for my future career path. The question is whether you want to be a technical person or something which work between IT and Finance.

I had an informal phone conversation with my Manager yesterday night. I talked about all the uneasy feelings I'm having in my current team and wanted to join IPC team in different account. He told me that I had the potential to join the team but maturity in work is not there yet. He advises me to join IM team which manages project, people and costing if I would really looking forward for IPC role.

I'm afraid of people having the perception that I'm not serious in my work and hopping from one team to another. Is this the way I carry myself that cause them to have this kind of image on their thinking? To be honest, I really don't know what I want. I joined HP as a normal administrator which just producing report and hosting weekly meetings. Now my title changed to IT Operation Specialist after joining Customer Access, Server Backup and UNIX team. Ironically, when I look behind, my career path is empty! Pathethic huh... yeah I think it is...

I totally agree to all the things my manager told me and I'm digesting his advise which is so helpful. He told me not to afraid to voice out if you really don't like the work I'm doing and don't waste your time although you are still young. If I show dedication to work in IM team, maybe in one year time I might able to join IPC team. This is depends on how much I could absorb and grow in that team for one year.

The statement that I like from my manager is that he told me "When I did something wrong, you point it out to me, make sure my word is convincing then you're ready for IPC role". He's really a good manager that shape me who am I in this company today. I hope this is not a WINDY promises but well in this society there are no such word call "Guaranteed" and it has to based on my own ability or will to get what I want.

Passion in work is another issue on the other hand. I'm seeking something I have passion on, so I do need to bring my lazy bum to work every morning without a reason. I must make sure the decision I made is what I want from all the option I have and don't ever question myself again, I mean within 1-2 years time.

It's time to make up my mind to decide which path should I go...

Red Wine in Medesto's @.@

25th June 2006

Had a relax night out at Medosto's KL yesterday. We ordered a pizza and a bottle of Merlot red wine. We watched football match between England and Ecuador (hope I spell it correctly). It's an exciting games and the funniest thing is that Lisa seems more frustrated that Garry when they missed the chance to goal, while Garry is the one who made a bet for England to win . Funny... Lisa wore a red top with white in color three quarter trousers, which made her as if she's one of the England supporter there, in fact, it's just a coincidence.

What a night... I do enjoy it very much and I think I'll miss the atmosphere of football fever once the world cup ends.
