The clock was ticking at 640pm this afternoon, the conversation in my office was.....
Susan: Hey, how come you are still here? Why not going back?
Spinner: Yeah I'm going back, but its okay for me to stay back. I got nothing to do at home anyway..
Susan: Only you people who are not married and no kids will have such leisure to stay back.
Spinner: Yeah, I enjoy my freedom....
Susan: That's why chinese population in Malaysia is getting lesser nowdays because of more people like u....!
Spinner: Haha... but since you are pregnant, and you already have 1 kid, you will be contributing to the headcounts!!
Susan: Yeah, but thats enough to cover myself, and my husband only....!
What a relaxing atmosphere it was on a Friday evening with a motherly colleague that was asking me to go home, to chill and relax..........
**Rewinddd.............**
In the past, on a Friday evening 640pm......
Boss: Errr.... you can do this up for me.... We need this URGENTLY for tomorrow's review with boss, and Monday is the meeting with client.
Spinner: ................. (deep inside the heart already cursing as such: WTF, its Friday evening and now only you tell me to do this.. you dont have a life but I want to catch up with my life.....!! *!*#&$*@^&%*^....)
Boss: Also also, make sure the documentation is up before Monday so that we can sign off. Make sure the team can finish up on time.......
Spinner: Errrr...... okay will try............
Boss: Not try....... It's a must..........
OK, anything after that, you can imagine.... the team is working on Friday night, coming back to office on Saturday or even Sunday, just to make sure things are up in order on Monday morning...........
Now you see the difference?
Another scenario also happened today over lunch with my AGM.
CURRENT
AGM: So, what's the plan for weekend.....?
Spinner: Hmmm... havent got a plan yet... but if no plan then most likely just chill and relax at home.....
PAST...... on Friday......
Boss: Can you give me this thing first thing on Monday morning......? Its urgent....
Spinner: Errrrr......... okay....... (What else I can say other than saying ok.......)
Thats the difference. I'm okay with lesser pay.... Afterall, you must believe 1 simple principle. You work for what you are being paid. Thats all.

Its Merdeka!!!
It's our nation's 53 years old birthday! Its a special day that all the Malaysian should be happy, its the day we are proud of, to be independent since 31 August 1953. See here, I said Malaysian. I did not say Malay, Chinese, Indian, or any other races.
We live in one country. We are Malaysian, be it we are Malay, Chinese, Indian, Iban, or any races. But sad to say, the policitian have created the impression that there's a clear line between all races and so does the teachers....
You can never deny, the teachers and headmasters, are the important person in your life, if you know how to read what I am writing here. It simply means you have attended to school, got proper education for many years, and hence you can read, write, and speak.
Recently, some disappointment had happened in the school. Headmaster asked the Chinese student to go back to China, and quoting that AirAsia has a very cheap fare to go China. This is no difference as implying that the Chinese do not belong to this country, and purely just penumpang in this country, and she is so generous to open up some space in this country for the poor Chinese boys and girls like me. Do I need to thank her? I have been in this country for 26 years.
This is unacceptable. The students are Malaysian. Malaysia is their home country. Whenever they are overseas, they are proud to tell everyone, Im Malaysian!
So, what the fuck is wrong with the headmaster?
Well, after that incident, our famous chinese boy from Muar, came out with an interesting song with anti-racism theme. I definitely do not agree that the song is being presented in such a rude manner, but the content he was trying to show is that, racism is not acceptable in this country.
Najib said: zero tolerance over racism in this country. But someone have lodged police report and the police is ready to get that boy into the lockup anytime soon. The one who is racist is still laughing there and still the leader of the school, the boy who is anti-racism is gonna go into jail.
This is just like, when you got a serious headache, and your specialist told you that you have got a tumor in your brain. Instead of taking actions removing the tumor, you take panadol everyday to cure the headache and the tumor continue to grow in the head. See when its gonna burst and kill you.
So, what the fuck is wrong with the country?
Is this the nation we want to see? Are we gonna spilt our nation into 2 pieces, 1 for bumis and another one for pendatang asing where Chinese, Indian, Indonesian workers, Bangla workers and MISC to stay.....? Remember our ex PM said before, if non bumis remove everything out from KL city, KL is only left with Kampung Baru. By then, instead of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.... this place will appear internationally as, KAMPUNG BARU, Malaysia.

The last hope.....
Pornthip is back! She is in KL and tomorrow its her show time! I do not know what she is going to say in Court, and how much of what she said will affect the justice for the nation? But she’s the only and last hope of Teoh’s family, Teoh’s one and only kid, of whom he has never seen before, and more importantly, she’s the only hope of the nation and Malaysia.
Honestly, I have zero confident on Malaysia, from the Court, to the AG, Police, MACC (of course!) and basically, everything. From 1 year plus ago until today, it’s just like a never ending football match that the ball is being kicked here and there, from east to west, then west to east, and north to south, then south to north, and the score as at last week, was 0 - 0. With a draw, all the efforts and time have all gone down the drain....
Somehow, 1 year after the case, suddenly, there’s an “additional evidence” that can prove he committed suicide. Don’t you think its unbelievable where it appeared only when the case is coming to the end? Nobody has an idea what’s written there. But it is said that Teoh said goodbye to everyone on earth on that piece of paper. If this piece of so-called evidence appeared 1 year ago, I guess it will be much more convincing. But now, everything is too late, unless somebody can prove that the entire Police force and AG went for 1 year break and just resumed to work recently…
If this evidence is proven to be genuine or faked it to be true, then the score last week was 1 – 0, where Teoh’s family and Malaysians (including myself) is losing with score 0, and the opposite scored a goal with a lousy trick.
Tomorrow when the match continues, then we will know whether Pornthip can be like Didier Drogba to score a hat trick in Chelsea’s 6 – 0 match couple of days back for the 1st game of the Premier League 2010-11 season.
Just a fair judgement for Teoh’s family, is it that difficult? Or some department who claimed that they are so great, even Hong Kong counterpart has to learn from them, could not face the fact that, they did something wrong and caused a life, and now is finding 100 ways to escape?
God bless Teoh's family.

左右为难。。。
I'm in a deep dilemma. I do not know how to move on. I have lost my direction.
现在，应该往前走，还是该转弯呢。。。？
现在的，是我想要的吗？还是其它的，会是更好的选择。。。？
现在就下定论，是不是太早了呢？还是，明明知道没有结果，还是要硬硬地撑下去。。。？
完美的梦想，也许只会是一场编织不完的梦，永远都不会实现。。。那，现实又在什么地方呢？
茫茫，就是现在的我。。。

The new chapter of life.
Today marks the end of my 107 days of career break, unpaid leave, or rather, my dad called it UNEMPLOYMENT. Whatever that is, it meant I have not been officially employed and get paid for whatever I am doing since 16 April 2010.
3 and half month is a long time. But I had no regret with it. I managed to catch up with so many things that I have always wanted to do, but I did not manage to, due to the job commitment. I spent times in KB with family and a week's holiday in Shanghai, spent time with the beloved ones to go travel, resit for the last paper in my professional exams (although I have I am being screwed by the exam, again!) and also free myself for some times of relaxing and doing whatever I wanted to do.
Tommorrow, the new chapter of my life begins. I am going to a new job that I have no experience in the past. It has absolutely nothing to do with my previous job experience, and the only thing it relates, is financial performance.
How it is gonna be? I have no idea. The journey ahead is full of uncertainty. Afterall, in life, only two things are certain - they are taxes, and death. Which part of life does not come with "uncertainty"? I have to grow up, I have to learn more, and I have to see the world.
If I have not let go my hand, when will I grow up? When will I move on. Do not stay in your comfort zone. Take the risk, and try it. The worst thing I will lose is only time, which I can afford to lose at this age, and the bright side of it, I made a try. No regret if it turns out to be unsuccessful, but I made the try. It may also turn out be a successful one, nobody will ever know. If I do not attempt it when I am young, neither would I make it when I am after 30 years old. By then, the risk-tolerance level is gonna be lower.....
Just..... wish all the best to myself, and tommorrow is where the success begins.
