Kelisa

After few days discussing with my family and friends, my parent decided to get a 2nd hand Kelisa car.

Coz ever since im back, i've been using my dad's car too often. For going places and interviews...no choice la...not enough cars at home. The Iswara that i used to drive before Melbourne last year, now had 'officially' became my youngest bro car di...as he have to drive to class everyday....

Accordingly, Kelisa saves petrol, powerful, and smaller car, easier parking..hehehe...and also the design is better than Kancil and Iswara. Or maybe i think so..hehehe

What color ? what color ?? hhmmm...

RM2.10

Got distracted by the earhquake case yesterday that i forgot about the earlier incident.

Went for a 2nd interview at this small company in Leisure Commerce Square. The boss decided to hire me. Anyway, i turned down the offer as i oledi got a better job offer.

I forgot to bring my money out that day. Coz usually i will take Rm50, finished spent, then take again from my cupboard. Until i realised it that i've finished spent my money, and i don't have enough money to pay for the 2 tolls on my way back !! my wallet tadak syiling, no cash notes at all ! not even RM2.10 ! as i drove my van yesterday, no syillings inside also, just alot of 1 cent coins !!

Shit....

Wandering around...then i saw this one chinese, nerd kind middle age guy sitting at the corner. I walked passed him twice, i smiled at him. He smiled back also. Then i took up the courage and approached him...

( with a very innocent and ashamed look)
"Sir...can i borrow RM2 from you ? i forgot to bring my money today..."

"ooo...can can can."

( then without hesitating, i saw him taking out money from his pocket. Kinda happy di.. then of course...make some conversations a bit..)
"i was here for a job interview....i didn't realised i forgot to bring my money out today..and i don't have enough money to pay for the parking now..."

"yeah yeah. Its ok. You can take it."

"Thanks alot man. So..you work here ?"

Then the rest nothing much la..normal conversation. And of course, i thank him nicely when i left. :)

Woooo..safe ! relieved ! i was lucky man !!

But then..not really.....shit ! i need to pass by 2 tolls. One for Rm1, one for Rm1.10 ! and im short of 10cents now !!!

...............

At the end, i handed Rm1.00 + 10x 1 cent coins for the 2nd toll...hahahahahahahahaha....

Can blamed my mom abit also...hahaha..i did remember to actually take money from my cupboard. But my mom keep nagging, asking me question bla bla bla..until i'm in a rush in the end...hehe

------------

Going for MiTV 2nd interview tomolo. Hope its good news !

My First Encounter with Earthquake

http://www.cnn.com/2005/WORLD/asiapcf/03/28/indonesia.quake/index

Was at Port Klang mamak when it happened.

Was happily eating satay, chatting with Kevin, Vee, and Keong. Then suddenly everyone silent. And i felt my head spinning ! i crossed my leg few seconds before, i thought i might be having high blood pressure or something..or because i crossed my leg, suddenly not enough blood circulation around my head !

Then i see all my friends have a stern look on their faces also

" Why is the table shaking ?" forgot who said this.

Then i realised, its not only me the one that felt it. Then everyone in the mamak start wondering and stand up. Like preparing to run if anything strikes. I could see the water in the drain, and pool of water along the road, moving, swaying left to right. Quite a scary sight. And in the same time, my head is still spinning in a circular motion. Feeling so wrong...

It lasted for about a minute or more. Then my mom called me, asking if i felt it. She told me our door mirror at home is shaking also. Then got a bit chaos in my friend hostel in KL and Kajang, as everyone try to run down from their apartments and high rise building. Then heard one of my friend that was lying on the bed, saw his hanging lamp swaying left to right...

"May GOD bless nothing will happen for this easter says :
ya my computer table also shaking jstnow


May GOD bless nothing will happen for this easter says :
i tok i wanna die liao "

Postponed...

Kinda pissed off a bit this morning when MiTV called at 1pm, informing that the interview is postponed to Saturday(tomolo), where as my interview time supposed to be 2 hours later...

Suddenly down with nothing to do, and a bit potong stim mood, and since oledi arranged for a lunch meet up with Ben the day before, so went up PJ for a lunch break, together with Jessie, with my van !!!!! hahahahaha...

I hope MiTV won't call me tomolo morning telling me the interview is postponed again...wish me good luck !!! yeah..ehhehehe...

I got a job finally

Yeah. I got the call this morning, and i accepted it. I will be working as graphic designer at this advertising company. But i will be in probation for 3 months, before im officially hired. Work start on 4th April, as 1st April is a Friday. Weird...hahahahhaa....

Got a call from Kim in the noon, after so looong. She recommended me a job as a video editor, in her friend's company i think. Sounds not too bad. Gonna meet up with her friend soon and talked about it.

Kinda dillemma abit now. Advertising or post production ?? hhmm..gonna really think about it again...

Not long later, while watching American Idol, i got a call from MiTV Corporation, to attend an interview this Friday. Kinda surprised that they actually called. Saw their ads on the papers more than a week ago, so i mailed them my resume and portfolio. I hope its good news.

Well, i got 2 weeks from now to think and decide. Whether to proceed with the job that i've got now first, or see how the video editor job goes, and of course, MiTV side.

Wish me good luck !

Talking with Stranger 2

Yesterday i went for this one job interview in Leisure Commerce Square. After the interview, i decided to eat there first before heading home.

Went to this one economy stall and ordered food, then while i was looking for place, i saw this one spot not far, sits a middle age guy. He gives a "you can sit here" look, so i just went over and "tap toi" laa..hahaha...

I was quite hungry and in a hurry. Coz my parking time will end in less than 20 mins time. So i thought i will just eat and go. Then the fella start talking to me...haih..kinda expected actually. And also..the usual same starting a conversation topic la. You working here ? bla bla bla...

Found out he have quite an interesting job. He is a safety pin consultant. As in consulting people about all the safety precaution people should take, what working environment people should do to assure of their safety, especially those construction building development people and company.

He says, " it is an interesting job" , with that kind of stern and serious look.
I just smiled back. Dunno what else to reply.

Im almost time up.

"so, i gotta go now sir. And you are Mr. ?"

"Ng here. "

"ooo..im Chan here."

"yeah..i know. I saw your name on your file folder."

hahahahahahahaa.....
and luckily im still on time before my parking time.

Talking with Strangers

Went for this one interview on Monday. After the interview, on my way out waiting from the lift. There is this one middle age guy who is also taking the lift down. While waiting, he started talking to me. So i had a brief conversation with him in the lift.

"yeah..i was here to sign a contract agreement with this X company"
"ooo...i was here for a job interview"
"oooo...you just graduated ? local ? overseas ?"
"yeah..i just came back from Australia 2 months ago. Looking for a job now"
"oooo..Australia ! that is so nice. I was there few years back. How is Aus now ? hows the weather ? hey, are you in a rush now ?
"eerrr...not really"
"ehh..come come..let sit down and have a chat"

And so, we went to the nearest coffee shop. Sat down and chat. And he start talking about when he was in Queensland to study. Apparently, he was a Law student back then, now an official lawyer. Then we talked and talked and talked...nice.

Seriously, i dunno why. But i talked to him like i've know him for years. Bullshitting about everything like my normal self. Never felt like this before to a stranger. I think he is at least 7 years older than me, but i dun really feel the generation gap. And he gave me a lot of advice about working life.

He treated me. Quite expected also actually. Hehehehee...

At least i know a lawyer now ! ahhahahaa...
