I've been OFFLOAD by AIR ASIA and AU Govt!

What a day that I have!!! A most of you know that I'm traveling to Gold Coast now! And at this time, I should be in the plane; SLEEPING!! But guess what! I've been offload by AirAsia Crew and Aussie representative before I can get on board! Sigh.. All this, I will throw back the blame to myself as I'm too arrogant to thought that I'm have traveled to Australia before and it should not have any prob! Sigh.. Guess you must be wondering what has really happened!

The matters started when I'm holding 2 passport! One a renew passport and another one an old passport which I have passed to my colleague to apply for visa. I used my own understanding to assume that there' should be no problem as i can just explain to the officer why I bring 2 passport. But, as I understand I have to applied a new one once the old one is no longer 'active' (still have more than 6mth validity). My initial intention to renew the passport was due to my preparation to UK; that's the reason why.

All of the officers told me that it's luckily that they find it out while i'm in Malaysia otherwise I will be put into 'jail'? when I'm in Aus. Is this real? No matter how, they don't let me to be on board as they claimed the airline will be fine at 15K (RM or AUD?). Conclusion, I have to get another ticket today and fly again to Gold Coast to meet up with my colleague on 29/8. I feel so bad as I have created such an 'issue' to them and makes them worries about me! But I still thankful for the 'second' opportunity to go to Gold Coast as the company is willing to pay for me the ticket; but it's my responsibility so there's some responsibility which I should take.

What a day! YEs.. Disappointment... it is confirmed. But what has come to my surprise is that during hr and time; HE sent angel too to be there with me. To be frank, Air Asia crew and the Aussie representative did gives me alot of information and advice how on strict it is with Australia govt.

I have booked my second ticket and get my another visa done for the flight tomorrow note. God bless me this time! Otherwise, I really hav to think where else I can go to spend my 5 days.....

Drown in work...

It has been quite sometimes that I have severe backache and a very stiff/hard shoulder muscle ache. Besides this, my temper has become very very bad and most of my college can just feel and sense it ... I also wonder what has happened to me! My current role in the company is like a consultant agent to help and advice my new colleagues on the informations/ideas on how to approach some of the matters/issues that they faces... to be frank, i love to do it when I'm 'free'... But recently.. I'm totally lost focus on my own KPI; frustrations started to overwhelm me.. I need God!!
I feel so alone most of the time in the company; I know it's the time now for me to stand up and learn to make decision! But God's strength and guidance is what I need the most!! Without Him, to be very frank.. I will be totally lost in time! God help me... I'm starting to drown now...


Besides the bitter part of my busy work schedule; I wanna PRAISE GOD for I will be going for a week of break in Gold Coast next week!!! It's a great 'runaway'.. when I'm so drown in work... there's a rainbow waiting for me at the next corner of my lives where I can the time to take some fresh air in Gold Coast and make my mind more clear and focus! I cant wait for it anymore!!!

Another exciting part of my 2008 planning is I'm going to start my MBA class soon in Nov lar!!! I cant wait to be a student and be back to college live again! Yes, it's not the same as I'm doing it in a part time basis but at least I'm realizing my dream... Thank God!

Going back this weekend to visit my parents, cant wait to hug my naughty Alston too! What a lovely rewards after all the hardship that I get in KL.. Ayer Tawar.. I'm coming home....

Time just flies..

Time just flies.. and now it's End of Mid Aug.. and it'll be End Aug 2008 very very soon and then.. I'm flying to Gold Coast for a week of holiday!! Phew! What a life that I have, great? wonderful? admiring? Erm.. for me.. I do admit that I have enjoying alot of 'luxury' in lives.

Last Friday, I went to a fine dining French Restaurant for my superior's farewell gathering. This is the first time ever in my life to a 'fine dining' place and in fact, I did felt good and enjoyed the environment. Hehehe... just the 'crowd' are the 'right' one, otherwise it is just 'prefect'! hehehe.. :-p

I really Thank God for the opportunities in career, lives, spiritual, ministry, family that I have all these while! I can't wait for my MBA classes to start to begin another new steps in my lives towards maturity! I have a very strong desire to 'change' my wardrobe dress for this new beginning of my lives and I will do it one day!

It's a HOT DAY today!!!! got to 'off' the keyboard for some cold drink.... continue again......

Meeting with 'Angel" and Wonderful Olympic Opening in Beijing 2008!

After week of busy 'entertaining' my own schedule; finally now i managed to 'steal' some 'precious' moment with my blog. A lot of interesting event happened during the week and one of them was car broke down!

Last Thursday nite as my regular sport day; I was rushing home to change my clothes and got myself ready for the my 'new shared group' meeting but.. as I went to the petrol station to refill some fuel! My car just 'died' after that and after several attempt to get the engine started, yet... the car still remain silent!! This is the FIRST time in my life; facing this situation!! Thank God, my bro was at home and I'm also very near to home; so my rescue '911' just appeared within few minutes. With the thought that my bro is an 'experience car electrician', he should has no prob handling the 'prob' that we faced now.. but.. I'm wrong.. ( sad to say but dont tell him!) During the time as my bro trying to figure out what was wrong with the car; 'an angel' just appeared out of no where!! Initially my bro and I thought, he was from 'car accident' company and also like others 'k por' that always came and talk with the intention to earn your money.

And he proved us wrong!! He is not the same race as us and we never thought that he really came to offer his hands of help to us! He offered his car battery to do the 'jump start' for our car and my car came 'ALIVE' again! Thank God for the angel! But the story not yet ended, he has misplaced one of the screw of his battery and ending up, we have to do some 'treasure hunt' to look for the screw. And Yes, he found out in this car in the end! It's a wonderful experience but I missed the 'shared group' meeting. :-(

Last Friday... (08/08/2008)
Beijing Olympic 2008 Opening!!! It was great, amazing, magical, wonderful and I have lost my words for this wonderful event!! Without notice to be very frank, my tears fall as I watched the Olympic Opening in front of my 'ants screen' tv; I'm proud with China! Every single performance of the opening has opened up my 'small' eye to this wonderful country! The 5000 yrs of history that they have created was a GREAT story to tell the world!

After watching the event. it seems like an awakening to me as I've being traveling averagely half a year once (even though this seems like quarterly once); but in my travel list I never put China into my list as I have heard too much 'interesting toilet' story from previous visitors to the country. But now, seeing the greatness and effort the Chinese community has putting into this great event. I'm seriously looking into considering to visit some of the states and planning a trip to visit my own hometown in Kutien, Hockchew with my parents one day as this has being their dream for years!

Good bye to my weekend; and Hi to my battle net!
