Rumors. You can choose to ignore but you can't. Rumors could become real bad when it is not true but the damage is already done. No amount of sorry, please forgive me, i do apologize can turn the boat around.
Rumors in the office is common. But when there is more untrue rumors than true rumors, we can say that the people in the office are doing better job circulating rumors than doing the job the suppose to do. All wanted to join in the rumors when the rumors does not involve them. What if it does? Do you still want to join in too and add another
version of your stories.
Reading books are my passion. Always been. There is one book that I have read, ten years back that have given me an impact and got me thinking, more like an adult. It is one of the book that I truly remember reading. It is Sweet Valley Twins, I think it was when the twins was still in grade school. There are Sweet Valley High and Sweet Valley University too.In this book they had done a project on McCarthyism.
McCarthyism derived from the name of U.S Senator, Joseph McCarthy and McCarthyism is the politically motivated practice of making accusations of disloyalty, subversion or treason without proper regard for evidence (courtesy of wikipidea). Means any words are taken as true no matter how outrageous it is. He accuses a lot of citizens of being communist without evidence and cause them to be blacklisted from getting jobs or jailed.
Even though this is not our Malaysian history but it is good to know about it, especially when it is so similarly related to the real life though no one is blacklisted or jailed but when accuse without any prove or evidence, and the accuse does not even know about it, that is really bad. I have saw this a similar kind of McCarthyism and the stories become bigger and bigger when the rumours are circulated, even though it is just a small thing. I also heard different version of the stories and it got outrageous day by day. Pointing fingers to blame other people had recently became a really bad habit among most Malaysian people. Not pointing out who though. I think we know who they are really. If we are not wrong, we are allowed to defend ourselves but really can we? When the rumours are much more to be believed rather than the truth spoken words.
We can all forgot about rumours when it is over. But the impact, the effect will remain. The most affected would be the one in the rumours itself. We can't stop people from making and hearing rumours, but do stop to think what would it happen to us. Do we have to believe everything that supposely a person in a higher rank has always telling the truth? They are humans too unless you have an alien as a superior. Sometimes those who are in the wrong create these so called rumours to defend themselves. It makes me really angry when we are accuse of something we know that we did not do. We are allowed to defend ourselves but does that make any different when people believe more in rumours?
I just do not like to hear "Biasa la manusia", "Biasa la orang mulut tak leh tutup." Well those manusia can try to adopt a better attitude. There are people can adopt better attitude. Why can't you? To me your attitude and intelligence does not base on educatons alone, but it is who you hung out with and i guess the environment you are in.
Enough blabs for today. There are more to come.

It has been a while since I wrote something or anything. Has been so caught up with work and trying to get enough sleep and rest in the weekend. Now that I my own Internet connection, it should have not be too difficult to update my blog once a week. But then I had discovered Facebook. So now I am an official addict of Facebook.
A lot has happen especially in the office that had me in a very bad mood most of the time. It is not the work. But the people around me, which I never wanted to have anything to do with anyway are giving me very negative vibes.
Anyway I don't want to talk about that much. It is quite a sensitive issue. Just to give some tips on working in the office ;) ;
1) Never said anything to anyone that you are not sure of. If you are wrong, then your screwed.
2) If you are on IM, make sure you deleted all you chat history, otherwise what you have bitched about other people will appear on Facebook (just an example) or even worst, circulated. And also, don't forget to log out from your IM. Very important one.
3) If you are new, do not demanded too much and wanted every fucking special treatment which you are not entitled of.
4) If you are looking for other jobs now, don't go and tell all the people in the office that you do. What do you think it made you look like? Diva? Superstar? I don't think so.
5) If you are looking for a higher pay job in this time of economic crisis, then good luck. You'll need it. But make sure you have enough experience to match your demands.
7) You don't have to tell your significant other everything that happened in the office even small things like losing your keys. Your boyfriend does not work in the same office neither he is your boss.
8) If you get scolded in the office. Then don't go crying to your mum. You are not 7 years old anymore.
I have felt that I have release 60% of my hate for now. Will come up with unusual tips again if there any more.

Start thinking of your new year resolution already? The last year one(s) had been achieved or is it still put on hold to see another year? I don't always have a resolution, just that my life would be better than the year before. But I would always get the question "What is your new year resolution?", " Ape azam tahun baru?". If I do have one, I would not remember about it one month later.
Some usual resolution would be;
a) Quit Smoking
b) Loose Weight/Gain Weight
c) Get better results for students/Get promotion for working people
d) Get a better job with better pay
e) Move to a bigger house?
f) Be a reality star?
g) Climb mountain and overcome the fear of height (which I never could)
And the list goes on. These are such a boring resolution to have don't you think? So typical.
I would rather start on something small like;
a) I would like to have more time for myself/spend more time with the family
b) Watch every movies in the cinema haha
c) Get a new boyfriend? haha (just kidding)
Well I had got a new Maxis Broadband which means I can go online most of the time without going anywhere. Now there is one resolution from which year, could not remember had been resolved after all.
Happy holiday guys! Start thinking your own resolution ;)

Today is my birthday and I am on leave from work until tomorrow. The day had started well. Today is the day that I can call other Maxis subscriber for free. I also can get free tickets in the cinema but I did not use them.
In the morning I had to send my laptop back to the office so that my colleagues won't come looking for me for information. They can just on my laptop and "wallah". Then the journey back to my apartment from Wangsa Maju, I had a lot chat with one of my best friend, Fatin. We gossip and bitch, and gossip again all the way back :D.
Then I got back to my apartment and shower (I did not shower when I went to the office earlier hehe). Me and my tow other best friends, Bai and J had gone to Pantai Dalam and eat nasi lemak there. Then we travel to Puduraya to accompany J to buy her bus ticket. Only after that we went to Midvalley. Went to get a cab, but the cab driver wanted to charge us RM15.. and said normally he charges RM20.. ouch.. we just waved him off. Then the other cab driver told us that there, all the cab driver are kind of "cekik darah". Then we finally hop in a bus RM1.60 only hehe..
At Midvalley we had decided to watch movies first then maybe play bowling. We queued the long queued in Midvalley's GSC until we arrive at the head of the line, one chinese guy just suddenly went ahead of us. Ouch. Furious, I took his picture.. I'll upload later. Spoilt a bit of my mood. We saw a lot of school girls and boys there too. After we bought our tickets, Transporter 3 (finally I got to watch), we went in and found some school boy and his girlfriend are sitting are our place. I asked him whether he is in the right seat. He just ignored me at first. I said to him again and he said no one wanted to seat at that place. I said I have tickets. I had almost wanted to call GSC's staff, then he just bolted out with his girlfriend. I was really furious now. My friends told me that he was the same guy that flirted over the counter with a girl when we were queuing. I think he is there for the free movie. Too bad we had bought the seat already. "Orang macam ini pun ada kan".
Then after the movie we went to eat in Kampung Baru and finally got home around 8pm. This is how celebrate my birthday this year :D. Now a 26 year old girl in Kuala Lumpur.

As per my entry title, it is my own fault that I had not accepted the offer from my parents to go back to my hometown this Hari Raya. Yesterday I still had to come to the office and finished some work until late afternoon, how to cuti peacefully? This is why today I want to spend my day at home and surf the Internet.
But since last night I was busy, downloading and trying to install back my Yahoo Messenger but was not succeeded until now. Uwaaa. When I tried to install it, it was automatically abort and error message sometimes was unable to reload .dll file/could not find ymsgr.exe in temp file or something. Uwaa.. If anyone out there knew please do help me :D..
Since I can’t chat in YM Chat Rooms, I had turned to mIRC.. yeah the good old MIRC which I had not logged in for chatting since I was 20. Only recently I log in into mIRC to download songs. I had hated chatting for several of reasons. One them, chatters (guys) most of them are tend to look for sex. While I was just looking for an intelligent conversation.. if there is any nowadays. So when I say nick such as “abgkeras”, “ERECT” (a more direct one) or “lelakicari***” will be automatically ignore without any prejudice.
Not all guys are to blame.. According to one of the guy I had chatted, he is here to entertain all those lonely women and girls out there looking for scandal (ouch, had become a profession already eh?). He had told me that a lot of women and girls are looking for scandals. What a world. Had I became so naïve over night?
Anyway.. Happy Hari Raya Aidiladha you guys. Have a nice weekend and holidays.
