Updates
Last Thursday
We finally settled down all the Slides for the tomorrow's CEO briefing. The Man (my beloved Man) came to fetch me, only found out that he has to send me back to office to get all the Papers done.
Last Friday
Five minutes before the MD the Stupid Cow (My Man will kill me for swearing) went into the CEo room, he called up a few of us scolding that the presentation was not according to what he wanted. Hello!!! If you would have checked the presentation earlier, instead of early in the morning before the meeting, you would have been prepared. Idiot!
He came back from the meeting, lecturing us about how everyone shall start communicate to each other and tell each other that all Papers must be written using Arial 10. Duh! I really thought it was something to do with the contents or figures or graphs or something.
Baie was not back that quickly.
Last Saturday
I decided to still call him the Stupid Cow. Went to watch semifinals of Malaysian Open and witnessed Lee Chong Wei won. Great Kiddo was having fever, we dragged him to the stadium anyways and had to entertain him outside the stadium a few times. He, being cranky, said exactly the opposite of what we're saying, that plus cheering. We said, "maalysia boleh!" and he screamed "Malaysia tak boleh!". I dared not look around, people will be saying what kind of parents we were.
Last Sunday.
Stayed home. Watched finals and LCW won again. Started fever. Drank barley drink so that it'll cool me off.
Last Monday.
Two meetings that I had to attend going on at the same time. I had to go in the Supplier's meeting since I've not concluded anything for the new contracts awarded. Then the Customer's meeting, no other managers attended too, at last Ida had to drag Puru in. Ida was putting long big face, pretending that the world should know that her meeting was ignored. Typical! I asked her whether she wanted me in, she said, 'tak pe, tak penting pun customer meeting ni'. There you are, served you right. Ingat orang tahu ke apa dalam kepala hotak kau. Tell people what you really feel la, instead of keeping revenge afterwards. Geram betul aku ngan orang yang pretend that she in nobody but actually craving for attention ni. Kebudak-budakan!
It was a big day for Baie, the GM(O) interview was on so I really don't wanna bother him eventhough I was so itchy of knowing what really happened in the CEO's room.
I prayed hard that the Stupid Cow won't offend Baie in the interview.
Flu was really bad. I had difficulty breathing. Settled everything at four, drove back, went back to the clinic and got my ventolin nebulizer. Took flu medicine, slept until 6, woke up and called Baie to ask how the interview went.
Last Tuesday.
Ida (who is seated in front of me) kept making remarks the whole day about how unimportant she feels. She made remarks as though I was not even her friends anymore, as though I don't have a heart to get hurt. I held my patience, plus the Stupid Cow was demanding attention, too. He asked everybody to sit down with him to go through the last Board Meeting' minutes. Stupid! At the end, I asked everybody to fill up the spreadsheet, and I patiently sat with him going through the details to prepare himself for the Board Meeting. Ini ka orang yang dapat gaji beriban riban banyak dari aku? Nak baca minutes pun malas!
Then, LiKwoTei was pronounced as the Manager (Logistics) Ida had to report to. She walked off from the office as soon as the news leak. Everytime there 's a problem, you'll walk out. Walaupun kadangkadang I was in need of your work to be completed.
Then the smses started coming in. "you are in coal, you don't know how i feel being in logistics. Ignored all the time. bla bla bla". Hello! First , sicne when these two are separated functionally (since LiKwoTei came in). Second, I was in logistics for seven bloody years!
Aku malas nak cakap ngan orang yang pikir the world revolves around her whenever she had problem. I punched out the card for her anyway. Karang punch card tak punch out, dapat internal query pulak. Walked out from the office around 8 at night.
I ended yesterday, walking out at the park with the Great Kiddo with the big moon showing his face. A bliss! The Man cancelled his bowling and I felt so great seeing his face back home. So many things wanted to be pouredm, but all choked inside and I just could say, "I'm glad to see you home, today", repeatedly.
I really did.
Today. Wednesday. The Thaipusam.
Finally checked out the new restaurant called the Rain for dinner. Food was great, ambience was calm. Most importantly, I did have time talking to the Man about what happened at work.
Tomorrow.
Working day, lots to prepare, Board Meeting in the afternoon, Customer meeting in the morning.
Decided not to call MD Stupid Cow anymore. Few days is enough.
Decided to not interfere with Ida's business anymore. And not to be bothered with her whines and cries. She is too much pampered. At that age, at that position, she should be taking a lot more pressure.
Decided not to be the one who tegur Ida, anyway. Biar orang lain tegur, or biar ada satu event that make her realize that she needs to grow up. It'll be a tough lesson for her, but a lesson that she will never forget. If there is no lesson learnt, then too bad fo rher.
Decided to be her listening friend anyway. Listening I'll do, advicing I'll do not.
Tomorrow is a better day.
A lot more tasks will get accomplished.
A pink Notebook by Dell is coming.

Counting My Blessings
I should do this more often.
1. I am so thankful that my youngest sister, who was so adamant to launch herself into the career world before without a proper degree, is finally settled down in a public university, further from KL, further from all these attraction. Hope it's gonna be good for her.
2. I am glad that my tummy is finally showing now.
3. I am enjoying my new work, the new challenge. It keeps me busy. It made me important.
4. My new white MyVi is so cute. It's even cuter when I am in it.
5. So I gotta wake up at 6ish and drive away by 6:30, but it's okay. So many new thoughts came in early wee dawn hours.
6. The great Kiddo is constantly nagging me for attention. Which drives me mad most of the time, but it made me important.
7. My immediate boss is constantly reminding me to take it slow for now, for I am pregnant.
8. The Man took me out for a movie , supposed to be an anniversary date, we watched the Enchanted.
9. Oh oh oh.. you guys, my 5th wedding anniversary is a.... *drum roll* Tag Hauer!!!!
Guess I have a lot to thank for!

It's A ....
The Man and I had made a pact to let the gender of our second one a secret. I mean, how many times can you do that in a life time, if you want to have two pregnancies? I thought it'd look cool to look surprise when the baby come out and the doctor finally announced that to us.
Secretly, having a complete pair would be nice. But I would love them anyway if both are boys. Like I always said, as long as it is healthy and perfect, it'd be more than enough.
When three of us, The Man, me and the Great Kiddo went to Dr Delaila for our fifth-month check up (which is actually the second check up), we were very silent when she started peeking into the monitor. With the Great Kiddo inside me four years ago, she didn't bother to ask whether we would like to know the sex, instead she just blurted out, there are the scrotum, it's a boy!
As pesimist as she was before, she went down from the head. 'This is the line that divides the left and right hemisphere of the brain. No sign of extra fluid, meaning not a down syndrome baby".
She went down "this is the shoulder, no sign of hunchback". "This is the back bone, again no sign of hunchback. Looks like a tall baby".
She further went, "The four chamber of the heart... bla bla.. the lung.. the kidney... "
I was silent. Didn't dare looking at the Man. Knowing that she'll go further down.
"This is the pelvic bone, symmetrical, no sign of down syndrome". Again, what's up with her and the down syndrome thing? I go myself focused, again.
Held my breath hard. Cause I knew it was coming.
Then, that's it.
"You know what's that between the pelvic bone?".
I sillyly said, "It's a boy?". I avoided the Man's gaze.
"No", she laughed. "It's flat. It's a girl".
So, we both knew. I looked at the Man and mouthed, "It's a girl".
He didn't look surprise. But he always has that stoic face, anyways.
There.
We both know, for now.
*smile*
Welcome, Anna Zahara, Mommy can't wait to see you.

Too Late for A Nieeeeeewww Year
So the new year went by without me watching the concert, without me watching the fireworks (I was about to type firecrackers, shows how have i been forgetting how big a new year fireworks are), most importantly without me sitting back to view my 'what was working and what was not for 2007', and what's the next 12 months gonna be.
*sigh*
Mental note: To book a hotel room with city view on 31 Dec 2008 to view the firework.
The new job came with super duper extra responsibilities and much much lesser time to even think on what's gonna happen next. I used to enjoy the time during the weekly staff meeting mulling over my To-Do list and strategize on accomplishing them. But for now, I didn't even have time to list down my To-Dos.
Which is bad.
Which has made me feel not in control.
I however get a few things done:
1. I managed to open the Amanah Saham Didik account for the Great Kiddo.
2. I opened up the Yippie Account for him too. The beauty of it is I can maybank2u money to him at any time I like, then when there are enough units opened at Amanah Saham Didik, I can easily go to any maybank to transfer the money to there.
3. Fund a few hundreds for my sister who just got rolled into a public university, I also helped her doing all the medical check up things.
4. Funded my parents for their yearly shopping. Okay, it's not like I funded them for the whole vacation, but it made me feel good.
5. I managed to revamp the whole new tendering process.
6. Finishing up the fuel committee for tbp.
Happy New Year to me.
(I know it's late).
*sigh*
