it's the time of the year again...

e-filing....arrghhhhh...i am dragging my feet to get this done..closing date is on the 30th of this month! i need a little pick me up lah....erghhhh.....HELP!



things have been pretty slow at work..another dread..i feel like i am stuck in a rut and just going with the flow...frankly this is like a normal feeling year in year out. i wonder how some people stay motivated or "engaged" (the in-jargon these days in HR language) in their line of work? well..use whatever fancy word you might it still means the same rite? motivated, engaged what's the different? the word ENGAGEMENT according to some expensive, fancy consultants definition, means how you as an employee think, feel and act for the company that you work for. so, if you are proud employee of the company you work for and willing to die for the company that means you are an "engaged employee".



how i know this? hehehe..i used to do this job for one of the company that i worked for in not so distant past! not as the con-sultant but as one of the project member...it was quite fun! i think that is my niche...working on projects, clear deadlines, timelines and the sense of achievement once the project is done-successfully of course...urrghh...to feel the adrenaline rush again! i miss that feelings.



this day to day routine is just killing me! i think i'm gonna be brain dead soon- due to lack of activities...hahhahah....just the other day i missed the turning that i was supposed to take, had to make a u-turn to go back home. and that was my normal route!! am i losing it? i think i was thinking of the "nothingness" in my work life at the moment lah.....ohh please i need some excitement in my work!



i know..i know..your life is what you make of it....but it's easier said than done! some people may say i am an ungrateful b****. i have a great job, not so bad pay and still complaining! most people would kill to be in my shoes!! yeah i know who...hahahahah..but i guess being a mere mortal..you are never happy with what you have....well you may be content with it for a while, then you grow tired of it and you crave for more....agree??? so, when is enough is enough?



and tomorrow is only Wednesday..wish Friday would come sooner...

our trip to cambodia


These were taken during our recent trip to Phnom Penh. it was a spur of the moment thing - the trip. i was feeling low, MAS came out with a promotion. So, i just booked the ticket to PP and the rest was history.

The silks were beautiful and can cost an arm and a leg...and i hate the fact that they use USD there. makes everything more expensive. Even a ride in tuk-tuk costs $3 to one place. cutthroat!


I researched the place before going there -i always do whenever i accidently booked a ticket or i feel like going somewhere :). And still i was surprised to have to pay $25 per person at the airport upon returning! errghhhh....and they have posters all over their airport that says "help the development of our people or country" or something like that.....CRAP! hampeh betui.....






finally...

Hey! i finally decided to have one...blog that is! :)

reason being, i have too much time on my hand? hahhahah...yeah, rite! anyways, i always love to write, so, maybe now it's time to do it...let's see how long this lasts..
