Looking for the best job ever?

The best job ever? No such thing. Every job has its own way of stressing us out.

Well, life isn't about looking for the best work ever. It's about looking for the best things which makes you NOT THINK ABOUT WORK.

Dilemma

Should I buy a new desktop or a new handphone?

To improve sleep!

1. have darkness. Light, even a little, signals your brain to wake up.

2. have low temperature. Better conductive to sleep.

3. don't change your bed time, even on weekends. To improve sleep rhythm.

4. use the toilet right before bed.

5. avoid sweets snacks before bed. Sugar delays sleep.

6. socks. Researchers say these will reduce night wakings.

7. put away your work an-hour before bed. Relaxes and clears the mind.

8. Listen to relaxing music.

9. Exercise in the day, but not right before sleep.

Welcome to woodlands

Just ended my 2 months training at HTA. Tomorrow will be my first day at work. Long story short, I'll miss the times and having lessons at HTA. Sigh.

Got my IC already

This week is good. No crimes, no disasters whatsoever. I went jogging 3 times this week. Also hit the gym for the first time in 4 weeks. My triceps cramps!

I bought two long sleeve shirts from Uniqlo. I also bought WWE Money in the Bank 2010 DVD. Because the reviews say it was good. Oh yeah, Eve Torres. She looks good.

Last minute had to go for a medical check up at Raffles Hospital. Thanks to Syafik who drove me there. Hope I do well at the ICA basic course! Back to HTA...

Day 27

(Sunday)

Day 26

(Saturday)

Why can't I sleep at night but in the morning and evening?

August salary

From $1,140 to $300+. 'Crap' includes recording bills, TrueFitness monthly membership. 'Hobbies' includes jamming, lan gaming, buying dvd and cds.

Well infact this month I spent very less on food and transport.

Day 25

(Friday)

Happy Hari Raya! I'm crying because it's been 10 years, my next door and above neighbours still have not shifted yet. Huuhuu.. Every day have to smell the smelly shoes and hear the banging from above. Huuhuu..

Day 24

(Thursday)

Malam raya. House cleaning. Time to sweat and clean the house like a beast!

So why do people cry on malam raya?

It's because they missed their loved ones, either passed away, overseas or even in jail. Thankfully all the closest of my loved ones are still alive and kickin'. But it's different for mum. I know deep inside her heart she misses both her parents.

And also people cry because they have been through very hard conditions in the past. I know what my parents been through during the kampong life was miserable as compared to today. Today we are a happy family and we never ran out of food or money or clothes.

But remember there are still those going through the hard life. Amongst the malay community.

Day 23

(Wednesday) September 8 ORD.

Came to station to dekit and collect IC. But PNS office say tomorrow not today.

After that I took bus 7 and traveled all the way from Clementi to Bedok. What a bus ride. Nothing else to do.

Taking my IC on next Monday. Days extended.

Day 22

(Tuesday)

Hah. What.

No make up. Glasses. Short. Slightly overweight. 31 this year. Who cares. I still think you're cute, adorable and gorgeous!

A great man will find you one day, don't worry. You are a respectable lady and you are the best in you do!

I don't want to ask for friendship or anything. I just want to say sorry for making your life a lot more stressful. ORD-oh!

Day 21

(Monday) Need to have a better, fuller resume.

How do you cope with stress?

When I'm really under stress at work, I try to take a step back and try to re-access the situation. Most probably my next action is to solve the problem which creates the stress. One of the things I would do is to look at the problem at a different perspective and view.

Other ways of relieving stress is listening and playing music. And of course talking with close ones.

Day 21

(Sunday)

Played with the reef band. Back to the bassist.

Day 20

(Saturday)

How would you assure that you remain calmness at work?

Well, in my case, if you have the sufficient experience and been doing your duty diligently, calmness can be attained. Just stay focus. Focus on what has to be done. Be confident of your decisions. There can be no right or wrong answer. Be prepared to face the outcome.

Day 19

(Friday)

Thinkin' of becoming a night vegetarian.

Hey mediafire, you rule!! You make my 3-week stay home enjoyable!

Day 18

(Thursday) Career fair. Sounds great. Hope I get a job quickly. To become a typical young malay corporal.

Day 15

(Monday) Can't sleep the whole night. I slept the whole morning sunrise from 6am to 1pm.

"What's good for you"

"What's good for you" is an Australia television program about health, lifestyle and fitness.

A few of the stuff I watched and learnt:

EXERCISING during the morning is the best time to lose weight.

Exercising during the evening is the best time to gain weight (muscle mass).

Exercising at any time is better than not exercising at all!

TO HAVE a six pack, you'll have to lose the fat above your stomach.

Two of those of the best ways are: cardiovascular workout and watching over your diet (no alcohol drinks, no soft drinks, no oily food. Strictly healthy meat and stuff...)

Doing lots of sit-ups and ab machine exercises still won't lose that fat on top of your six pack!!

Day 14

(Sunday) Grandma's house!

Day 13

(Saturday) Outing with Ilham's group. I know it's his plan of me to get closer to his close girl friend. Smiles. Well, she is sweet and decent. In fact she is my type. But I'm in my comfort zone of not being attached. And no drama.

Where's my game? I should get back to the game.

But times like these made me miss school. Being in a big group. Boys and girls. No couples involved is preferred. Just miss the taste of it.

Day 12

(Friday). Got a testi from work. I should be very proud.

The LAN centre. A place where youngsters can kill each other or zombies. In peace...

Countdown to 8 Sept: Day 1

Goodbye work. No need to become the secretary to my in-charge anymore! No need to care about problematic new mangkuks!!

But seriously, division life is so much better than tracom. Because in division I learnt so much from working experiences, mistakes, friends and supervisors.

Behold the best DSU team line-up ever!!!

The good ol' days

I remember a particular time when I was especially happy, it was:

when I took photos with my former teammates. I was handling over to them a box of chocolate. It was like an awards ceremony. Raj, Haziq and Razak shooks hands with me individually while holding it. I was like an ASP or a senior officer. It was amusing. Well, it was for fun memories.

Sometimes I feel really excited, but one time that stands out is when:

I took an airplane to Langkawi during my long vacation. That was just last week. Well, I was 10 years since I went aboard an airline. When it took off from Changi International Airport, I really felt similar to the time I took the Mummy roller coaster ride at Universal Studios Sentosa. I really hate the sudden velocity.

I remember times when a person said something to me or treated me in such a way that it made a positive difference in my life, and one of those times was when:

I was working with Team Bravo while I was already in Team Alpha. It was night shift at sentry. Raj just came out of security control room. He came out with a paper in his hand. Those was printed daily roosters that I had made when I was with Team Bravo. Raj complimented on my roosters. Said that they are far better than anyone else. I realized that I have a potential in becoming a planner.

A time when I felt really special to someone was when I:

received a message from a former girl friend. It reads, “I miss you.” I felt really connected with her. Well, it was very random and at an unpredictable timing. I felt that I want to be with her forever. The first true and last. But sadly like most relationships it didn't last long. It's a strange one, because I didn't really know what made her want to forget me.

Self matters companion chapter 1:

Which kind of person are you:

The one who wants to revive that glorious old moment

OR

the one who looks for a new adventurous, glorious moment?

Well, is life about re-runs?

When, at times life makes you feel very excited. But there was this one which stands out...

it was the first time I made eye-contact with this girl. She was sitting in front of me and I was standing a few meters from her. She gave me a shy smile. I think it reads: thank god I'm done with work. erm, hi there sweety. i'm so in a good mood and your presence makes it even better. muacks!

And at that moment she was the most adorable girl i've ever came cross.

The Ten: Day 10

Day 10! I can't stop being fat!

The Ten: Day 4

Had to return to workplace simply because of a half-an-hour meeting with second-in-command. I wanna buy a long sleeve shirt from New Balance..

The Ten: Day 3

Finally managed to get my butts up and head for the gym. I've gained another kilo!

The bad thing about getting a touchscreen portable device: you need both hands. One to hold and another one to tap the screen. Not so macho anymore eh with both hands?

Still doing research on mkv to avi converters:

Prism: the converted avi video is too big. Up to 16GB for a 110min video!

YoutubeDownloader: looks great on OPTIMAL quality. However, audio lost sync at towards the end of the movie. Near perfection.

iSkySoft: watermark can't be removed! also, cannot forward or rewind while playing in the mp3.

Creative centrale: can't convert mkv directly. mkv to mp4 to wmv.

The Ten: Day 2

Cycling all around woodlands. I was happy that my sister just got out of the hospital. She is doing well. We as a family also celebrated mom's birthday at Eatzi SAFRA Sembawang.

Still finding a great converting format from mkv to avi. Converting video takes lots of virtual memory.

I miss the garfield back at work. Chubby with big eyes. I want to hug it all day long.

The Ten: Day 1

Day 1 of my 10-day vacation. Hope I get a good break from work.

Just bought the new creative ZEN X-fi2. Finding avi converters on the net.

3 strangers you will meet...

3 strangers you will meet in an online social network...

1. How are you?

Hey, hi there. How are things? You seem to have something that I am interested also. Sounds fun! I like your picture there. Your friends seem nice. Hey, what do you think of my photos? Well, this weekend I'm doing something awesome with my friends! Hey, watched this movie, it's really great! Hey, I have some feelings to share with everyone. Well, want do you think? Thanks! See you around

2. Who the fuck are you?!

You are?? How do you get to add me? Was my email address lying around some void deck or something? Have you been peeking on my photos recently? How often? They're not for your eyes, I'm attached!! You're not even a friend of my friends! What makes you think I'm gonna entertain you and your comments? Or that you're my type? I've just set my account to private, go away!!

3. Sorry, not you...

Erm. Uh, okay. I know you've added me. Frankly speaking everyone adds me. I'm not saying that I'm popular or anything. You're welcome. Maybe we've met or I've forgotten you or something. Yeah, I think I might have remembered that time. Yeah. Erm, don't mind you give me some space? I appreciate you commenting. It's just that.. I'm so into this person, to an extend that maybe I don't have time for anyone else? I think? And with myself too? Okay. Take care.

Tuneslavery

80's classic. Love the bassline and reggae vibe. Smooth vocals.



The intro guitar solo is epic. So is the chorus. Awie is awesome too.



Very nice bassline. Love the vocal tone and singing style.



Legendary hard rock band. One of their best song.



It's Exists again. A very positive song. Love the reasonably heavy rhythm guitars.



It's the rasmus. One word. Guilty. Who would forget the chorus to this song?



Akon and the amazing house beats by David Guetta. Excellent combo.



Love the nostalgic guitars. Pop yeh-yeh at its finest



Another pop yeh-yeh masterpiece.



One of my favourite newer songs from them. A very bad-ass modern hard rock tune.

Hello

Hi. I just updated my links of my favourite bands/myspace at the right hand side. Starting from Death to below, I have 2 or more albums from those bands.

Soilwork, spineshank and tool releasing new albums this year soon. Dark tranquility, HIM and alkaline trio already out.

January '10

Where the hell did I go. January 2010 was an okay start. I wanted to try something new this year so I bought an electronic drums. I kept playing 'Just Dance' over and over again. Well, the drums in that song has a lot of presence.

I'm also hooked to this online game of tower defence. Very interesting because of its jungle theme. Elephants, boars, even tigers are charging towards your village.

Every morning on my way to work I go through a sight of disgust. My void deck below is always full of litter and it is all the work of the party last night. And they party every night! One whole family of them. A mixture of teenagers and their aunties and uncles.

I get to know this brunei officer who is on attachment for a few weeks at my station. She's very sweet and pretty. She is as old as my elder sister. I gave her my number. Still waiting for her call...

Lots of 2nd off days used up for in-service or covers. I hope February will be okay too.

Will I celebrate valentine's day?
