Traffic Jam

Many people like to against the law. Is not criminal but is against the traffic law.

In front of the junction of Sri Sentosa (main road is Old Klang Road), many people like to stop their car in the other exist (to Sunway/Old Town) and wait for the traffic light to change to green. When the traffic light turns to green, they make an illegal turn. Because of the cars stopping in the other exist, and this blocking the other cars getting out from that exist, what happen? Traffic jam.

Recently this junction got 2 cases of accident. Both accidents also I saw it, happen at night and early morning (2-3am).

First accident happen around 9pm. I saw a motorbike coming from Puchong area and wanted to turn in to Sri Sentosa but don’t know what happen the motorbike fall down when turning the corner. Luckily no car turning in else it will be a sad tragedy.

Second accident I didn’t saw how it happen, what is see is the car bang into the traffic light and many cars stop nearby and many people surrounding the damage car, make the traffic jam at 3am. Why human are so busy body?

2 become 1

2 become 1 is not the song sung Spicy Girls. It is 2 turtles become 1 turtle. One of Carmen turtle passed away.

It is strange that why the turtle passed away. From what I know, turtle is a kind of animal easy to pet.

Carmen told me “The baby turtle die, papa buy another 1, ok”. Baby turtle is because the size is smaller compare to the other turtle.

Yesterday I bought the turtle and keep in my room, next time only bring it to Carmen. The smallest the turtle the greenish it is, when they grow up, the color become lighter. So now I have 3 turtles, small, medium and big, like Do-Re-Mi.

Turtles

1 to 2 months ago, I bought 2 turtles.

Something strange happen. Know what? The 2 turtles I bought are at the same size but now 1 big 1 small.

The big turtle is double bigger than the small turtle. They are at the same tank and how come the size are different. That’s really strange.

Last Sunday I bought a bigger tank for them. I put some stone inside the new tank so that they can climb onto it to have sunshine.

In order to save work on changing water regularly, I think I must get a small water filter. Tomorrow I’m going to get advise from my friend, see what he say.

Push car?

Yes, why the taxi driver pushing their car? I saw this situation in Times Square while waiting for Carmen, mum and mummy. The answer is they don’t want to restart their car engine just to park their car nearer to the taxi stand. So this is one of their saving tips.

Can you imagine how difficult is their life? I think not only they are saving like that. Many people also have their own method of saving. What about you?

Chinese New Year is coming soon, just a month later. Money is my current problem. Need to get more money for my mum to buy Chinese New Year stuff, need to prepare for the red pockets money, need to get new clothes for Carmen and ….

Normally people will use their bonus money to celebrate Chinese New Year, but my bonus only give on end of March. Where to get money? This make me think of what my colleague said “saving is the key”. So start saving now, not for myself but for my family.

First day of 2010

Happy New Year to everyone. Today is the first day of 2010. So what is your plan for this Tiger year?

What had you done for the past year? What is the saddest thing for the past year and what is the happiest thing for the past year? All these questions I heard it from radio, they asking audiences what are their unforgettable thing happen in 2009.

For me, I did something really wrong that hurt my family. Something really wrong until I had to quarantine myself alone. For the past few months, I had to stay alone, this life is really difficult. I don’t mind cleaning clothes myself, but do you know that I feel lonely at night. I had no one to talk to. I can’t call my mum as my mum scare mummy knows it. I know mummy doesn’t meant that, is just my mum scare mummy don’t like.

If a person is discipline, I believe his or her life will be easier in future, like what my colleague told me ‘Saving is the only way to have better life’. I strongly agreed. If I am discipline, I think now I can buy a house stay with my family, Carmen can go schooling earlier. I had set my mission for 2010 which is saving, saving and saving. Hope this year will be a better year for me and everyone in the world.

Kuala Selangor

This is my first time to Kuala Selangor. Today is holiday. I have no plan so I followed my friend to Kuala Selangor. He is getting stock from there. What stock? Is prawn crackers.

He planned to sell prawn crackers in KL area. His job is to get prawn crackers from Kuala Selangor shop then at night fetch his partner to restaurant area like steamboat shops to sell the prawn crackers.

From his house to Kuala Selangor took about an hour plus. He told me last time he went there is to see the firefly, but now the firefly is getting lesser there and not bright enough.

Along there road, I can see a lots of palm trees. This is our country natural resources.

I can see a temple next to the river. This gives me the feeling that I am in Thailand. My friend told me that temple appeared in newspaper. The temple is recently newly operated.

Finally we are there. The shop owner first sentence to my friend is “Why long time no comes?”

They quickly packed all the crackers into the car. Total can fit 40 big packs. 1 big pack contains 10 small packs. So my friend call his car as “prawn cracker car”

The owner gave us a big pack of fish crackers and malt biscuit to taste. She did recommend some dried prawn cracker, means not yet fried. Chinese New Year is coming soon. Mostly Chinese people will buy a pack of dried crackers and fried themselves few days before Chinese New Year. My family did that every year.

We are heading back in wet mood. It’s raining day.

Holidays

My oversea colleague was jealous about me because I told him this Friday is holiday here, and he said “Last Friday just holiday, this Friday against holiday then coming 2 weeks Friday also a holiday, so good”.

I agreed because almost every Friday for the month of December is a holiday here, 11th, 18th, 25th, and 1st of Jan 2010. And because its year end, I believe every company will have this policy, clearing up annual leave. I carried forward 7 days (official 5 days and under table 2 days) and I still have to take 4 days. I took one day on every week in December, so I only work 3 days per week, is it good?

Sometimes too long holiday is not a good thing, I mean for me, because I do not have a proper plan for it. Basically is no money no plan. Sigh.

Team Building

This is the first year my team joins the team building that organized by this floor. My team was formed 3 years ago, and this is the second time of team building they organized. Why only second time? Because they skipped one year.

Our floor have about 50 staff, but only 35-40 person turn up. We are split into 4 teams and this gave us opportunities to get to know each other. I knew people who sit on the other side of the floor, only met 2-3 times per week.

We played few games. We played treasure hunt, quiz, spider web, create team flag, guess the song name, guess the movie name, birthday party which celebrate birthday baby from June till November.

   

 

Few days before always rains but weather surprisingly good on that day.

My team won the 2nd prize and all the prizes are goodies. Not good for us but good for children.

We only stayed in the same place for whole day. We do not have opportunity to walk around the area. That’s the only disappointment.

Hope this kind of event can carry on every year.
