Despatch ooooo Despatch

16/01/13

My sister's despatch quitted his job within 24hours notice. My sister asked me to find a replacement as soon as possible.

Last night, I got to know this man (A) from my friend. I called my sister and told her that I found the replacement and asked her to interview him. My sister asked A to come to the office after lunch today.

A texted me saying that he already went for the interview and Ms Fyda said that she will have a discussion with the Big Boss (my sister) about the allowance. I was stunned. What allowance? As far as I am concern, there is no allowance for despatch and the nett pay is RM1k only. I told A already about that in aour first conversation.

 At 6pm, my sister called me and we started the gossiping session.

My sister's version :

Mr A came for an interview and asking RM1.5k for the salary and 500 for fuel, vehicle maintanance and any damages during working time, so he will get RM2k in total.

Whoaaaa! That was not a pay for a despatch! Hullo!!! Where do you get that idea of getting RM2k just being a despatch???????

So the answer : REJECTED!

Tacheh's Orientation Day

29 Dec 2012

It was still dark outside but both of us must jump up from the bed as the clock showed 7am.
"Oh! No no no..we are not going to be late on her orientation day", I said to myself.

Cece, do you want to take your bath or not?

I don't want la mama..soooo cold

Ok ok, brush your teeth and hurry up!


8am
Pra-Tadika SK Sungai Pelek

Ok..where is everybody???
It was 8.10am but yet there was no sign of school teacher or even a parents with their children. 5minutes later, a lady teacher said that the orientation will be at the Dewan Utama and while waiting for the others to come, I played some games on Cece's tablet.

9am - the orientation started with the Head Master gave out some explaination about the new KBSR for the Year 1 student. Owh! Am I in a wrong Dewan Utama? As far as I am concern, there is only 1 Dewan Utama here.Luckily, a couple sat in front of me said that their son is going for the pre-school just like my daughter.

10am - End of speech. Pheeeew! What a relief. Out of sudden, all the parents went out the Dewan Utama. Ok..so when is the taklimat for pre-school? This cannot be happening! So I went to Cece's pre school class and I was shocked when I saw the teachers and a few parents were in the class waiting other parents to come to start the taklimat. What a waste. After wasted 1 hour in the Dewan Utama, now only she will give the actual taklimat for pre school. A very bad time management, I must say.

The point during the session was :
1) Yearly Fees including uniforms, books and academic fees = RM145
2) Parent-Teacher Community
3) Send and pick your children at the gate only for the kid's safety.
4) Please wear white shoe and sock just like their brothers and sisters (owh! my daughter dont have  brother nor sister)

Phew..lucky that last year Cece's old school also asked to wear the white shoe and it is still fit with her. The event lasted about 1hour nd after that my daughter and I headed home for "brunch"

Cooking Day


27/12/2012

Today is our Cooking Day!!

My father love to eat pudding. I decided to make another Cream Caramel using the right amount of ingredients. 
 
 Look nicer than before but I think I love the taste of the pudding with the wrong amount of ingredient. Or maybe next time, I just put more custard powder to lessen the “egg” taste.

While I was cooking the dessert, my mom asked me to cook the ray fish that I bought last week. This is my speciality “Asam Pedas Ikan Pari”. Cece love to eat my signature dish since the 1st time I learned this recipe from my aunty.
 
 

 

Cancer and Me


26/12/2012
8:45 am – Check in Counter, Hospital Serdang
I was late for my specialist appointment (again). I thought that my appointment was at 10am but when I arrived I found out that my appointment was at 8am. “Oh! Never mind it is still early”, I said to myself.

As I took my no for registration, I was so shocked that I have to wait for another 100 peoples before they called up my no. It was 1238 and my no was 1338. So my daughter and I decided to go to buy some refreshment, newspaper and magazine. 10mins later my no was called and then we went to the specialist clinic at Level 1. Wow! 10mins only? Cool!

9:15am – Otorinolaringology Clinic
Whoaaaa! Where the hell are these people come from? I cannot find a seat for both of us as the seats were full and the clinic was packed like sardine in a tin.

About an hour later, I went to see my specialist, Dr Zamri. He said he was frustrated when I said that I had a small lump at the same place again. He also said that my last surgery to remove the cancer was one of the difficult surgery he ever done. He removed all the cancer but as I did not finish my radiotherapy cycles, the cancer may recurrent and maybe aggressive this time.

As I have to restart the cancer treatment all over again, Dr Zamri then set a new appointment on Monday (31st Dec 2012) to start with FNAC. If the lump is a cancer positive lump, then I have to do the X-ray, MRI, ultrasound then operation to remove the lump and after that I will referred to HUKM again for chemotherapy and radiotherapy again. And this time Dr Zamri said that he will put extra attention to me as I failed to obey his order before.

Before I left, Dr Zamri gave me Cefuroxime Axetil for a week. Perhaps the lump is because some kind of infection evens it more unlikely like one.

32 Going On 23


Pursuing a Diploma of Science in the age of 32???

At this age, I am supposed to have a Degree scroll not studying in Diploma.

I must say that I am ashamed of myself for not having a degree scroll like my batch mate. They are all now successful in life. Some of them are now in oversea Universities pursuing PhD; some of them are great lecturers, Executives and even are the CEO for their own companies, making million of money but I am serving as clerk in Governments’ Civil Department. Alhamdulillah....

1989-1992   : Top Scorer in Sek.Keb. Sungai Pelek

1995            : I was in Top 10 list PMR Scorer List - SMK Sungai Pelek

1999            : Not listed as 3 pointer student in Inpens College

2003           : Not even listed in Graduation List as I failed to finished studying in UPM 

Sad story toward the ending...but it was totally my fault.

Studying in this age actually gives me some advantage:

1)  Time management:

I know how to manage my time wisely. During weekdays from 8am-6pm, I will use that time to study. At night, I’ll spend 2-3 hours with my daughter and doing house chores and then I will do some revision for tomorrow’s class. Weekend is absolutely for family and spring cleaning!

2)  Special Attention :

I am not saying that ‘special attention’ is good because I hate to be kind of attraction to people but this special attention sometimes makes me feel great because I don’t feel like I am left behind.

3)  I feel younger :

I am surrounded by teenagers aging from 18-23 years old which make me feel like one also! Hahahahaharunsalimbachik!

I still remember the 1st time they saw me walking into the class. They thought that I was one of their new lecturers. 

 

I hope that I’ll be success this time

I am doing this for my mother and my lovely daughter...

I love you guys...

15/12/12 - The Lazy Day

My whole body was aching like hell and I couldn’t barely open up my eyes. It was Saturday and all I could think was sleeping the whole day. “I have to wake up”, i said to myself. It was still early and I was like a giant snail. Slowly walking to pick up the towel and headed to shower. I took the green baju kurung which I don’t have to iron and wore it. I started the engine and it was 7.45am. OMG! I will be late!! The car fuel was 1bar and I have to stop to refuel. OMG!! I will be late and late and late!!! As soon as I reached Universal HQ, the lecturer from Malaysia of Health Department was already in the class. Malunya!! Surprisingly the class was still half empty even the clock showed 8.45am. The class started at 9am and slowly one by one student came in and at 10.30am the class was ¾ full. Another ¼ was missing in action. Hahahaha..What do you expect? The practical exam was over yesterday and today’s lecture will not be included in the final exam this coming 31st December.

The lecture today covered a few topics like:
1)    The Safety and Emergency Respond
2)   Infectious  Disease
3)   The Requirement and Supervision of under 4years old Handicapped Children


The class ended at 2.30pm as we decided to skip lunch time to finish early.
I reached home at 3.30pm and had a beautiful nap until 5pm before Mak woke me up and asked me to send Abah to barber.
 
There goes my nap.....
