Me,Busy? That’s Right..

Wednesday, November 30th, 2005

Can you believe it? Mua,busy? At first i thought it was a dream, but i’ve came to a realization that it is reality indeed. My colleagues and i went to Perak for site surveys. We went through construction sites, jungles, you name it. And went through a variety of weathers too, raining,windy and also the hot streaking sun. I was exhausted once i reached the office but nevertheless,i still need to go to work on the following day.

Thanks to Imin for the wedding invitation on last Saturday. Good luck to your sis on embarking on a new journey. When it is your turn to do so, do not forget to invite me. Plus, i am your best man,kan kan? :)

Thanks to Shahnon also for the open house. I had a good time seeing back all of my old friends. It’s been a while since i met them, due to my nihilistic state of mind that i’ve been over the past years:p The last time i met them, they were talking about studies and football,now, it’s about working,marriages and even economics.Wow, you guys ASTOUND me.

I am just taken back by how much we have actually grown over the past years. During high school, when i was a teenager, i’ve always wanted to be more mature than my age,like becoming an adult. But now,since i’ve hit adulthood,it is funny how i kept reminiscing about the past and how i wish i acted more of my age back then. Guess i was confused back then. Anyway, it has been my utmost pleasure meeting all of you guys.

SFD DeepaRaya

Wednesday, November 23rd, 2005

The SFD department made a DeepaRaya celebration yesterday. There were lots of food and it was served buffet syle. Eventhough i am not from SFD, i managed to infiltrate their ceremony thanks to some encouragement from my pals. If it’s free..you bet i’ll be there because the best things in life are free..:)

Started playing Dragon Quest 8, stopped playing Fatal Frame 3 somewhere in Hour 8. Fatal Frame 3 is kind of boring..STUPENDOUS amount of backtracking. It is impossible to play the game without a FAQ. Unlike the recent Resident Evil 4, which has almost virtually no backtracking. I guess i am kind of spoilt after playing Resident Evil 4, expecting all the games to be of Resident Evil 4 quality.

Dragon Quest 8 is tough. So bloody tough that i died 3 times at the first boss. Can you believe that,THE FIRST BOSS! I only managed to defeat the boss when i am at level 8. I guess this is what we call an ‘old school RPG’ eh? Nevertheless, the game is interesting though. The story so far(3 hrs into the game so far) is pretty basic, but knowing Square, i bet it will develop into a captivating yet complex storyline. I just hope that this won’t turn out to be like Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne, that game is impossible to beat…

FUTSOL anyone?

Sunday, November 20th, 2005

Had my first game of FUTSOL last Friday, along with my colleagues, quite an experience indeed. Looks like i’ll be adding FUTSOL to my list of ‘unplayable’ games, was a ‘handicap’ the whole way. I was pwned throughout the entire game. Nevertheless, i still had fun hanging out with them though.

The meeting was fun. Everyone brought some kuih, therefore lots of food for me. :) Besides that, they even have a short play. The meeting was fun indeed. After all the fun has subsided, then came in the real agenda. "The ISO Auditor visit". We went through flowchart of the ISO process, queue by queue. Eventhough the ISO Audit doesn’t concern me, but it sure is informative. Anyway, what effects me is that  i have more work to do,i need to prepare the Northern Region report which will be up for review. Finally, some work!!

Despite all the working and hanging out, i still do play my PS2.Old habits die hard i guess. Currently playing Fatal Frame 3. This has to be one of the scariest games of all time, even surpassing it’s predecessor. The ambience of the game is straight out of some Asia horror flick(Shutter,Juon..). Plus, there is even a tribute to Juon somewhere in Chapter 5. :) .Creepy..

OT?

Thursday, November 17th, 2005

The ISO Auditors are coming, and everyone is getting busy. Everybody is reviewing their JD, KPI , flowcharts and such. This situation is somewhat beneficial to me since i finally have work to do. At least, until today that is. So far now, things are slowing down and the only thing left on my ‘busy’ schedule is a meeting at 2.30. Idle..yet again.

Hari Raya Open House

Wednesday, November 16th, 2005

Thanks to Aidyl for the open house/party yesterday. It was marvellous. I had a great time.The concetration of beatiful girls at the party was exceptionally high, even higher than MMU itself. :) I would have felt odd if it wasn’t for some familiar faces(Azarul, Izzam, Aie, Noel, Joe, Dinor..etc). It was fun catching up with you guys. I would have stayed there longer if i didn’t have to go to work the next morning, curse you ITP! :p

Please note the frequent blog update. This is due to the feeling of ‘unoccupancy’ which is sinking in deeper by each day goes by.

Absupositively?

Tuesday, November 15th, 2005

Today was quite a surprise for me, since i met Mr Rohan during my lunch break at the Sunway Lagoon Club. It’s been a while since i last saw him during my days at Subang Hi-Tech. Ahh..the suffering back then..:)

Things are started to get boring during my industrial training. Lucky for me, it is nearby Sunway Pyramid and also just a bus away from my house. Anytime when i am feeling bored,…paham-paham je la what will happen next. Besides, your effort of sitting down there at the office does not commensurate with the ‘recognition’ that you are there.

Gaming is an activity that i truely enjoy. Wrestling is a sports(soap opera) that i truely love to indulge myself with. Having said both of that, the new WWE Smackdown vs Raw 06 game for the PS2, is truely awesome. The graphics look way better than before, noticebaly , the DIVAs. The gameplay is revamped so it plays more like a sim than an arcade game. Currently practicing the new gameplay system, therefore, all current matches will be postponed until further notified. :)

To one of my good friends, Abdul Muhaimin, Happy belated Birthday. May Allah bless you and all the best in your career..*cough cough* marriage. :) Jangan lupa ajak den makan nasi minyak ,aight?
