Hi all... hmmm... have been away for too long... if u ask me if i was bz... well, the answer would seriously have to be NO... cos I wasn't busy at all... Had been staying home all day long & only gone out on weekends to visit the rellies & shop for groceries... What an exciting life, ain't it?!
Well, i'd really wanted to start looking for a job since all the bills i've gotta pay as well as all the loans to my parents for my studies... but I've been busy with my residency application here in perth... seriously, that should be no excuse... since it's already been 6mths since I've graduated!! However, I'm now much needed to be in Sgp... Tmrw I'll be flying back home to visit my dad who is due for a heart op... I can't remember the medical term for it... He needs it to be able to live a little bit longer & healthier... or risk a severe heart attack... His op was meant for last wednesday, but I was unable to rush back home cos of a misinterpretation of the requirement of the visa during residency application & Kris was waiting for his passport... But now, the passport's here & I don't even need the visa after all!! I'm just waiting for Kris to come back from work & we shall be off to get our flytix... And we'll go for a haircut, shop a little bit (cos I've got nothing to wear out of my huge wardrobe), and then, we've gotta pack... Can u imagine?! We're not packed yet!! And some of the clothes we're gonna bring are still on the washline... Well, the wet laundry is really not my fault... There has been a thunderstorm & we have postponed our shopping for a drier until we get back from Sgp... Ok... I'm off... I may blog in during my stay in Sgp & keep u updated on my trip as well as on my dad's condition... Pray that my dad will be fine, pls... Thanks... =) Thursday, March 18, 2004
hi all... it's been a month, or more... however, since I'm online, I reckon I shld just say hi... and dust off all the webdust I've got in here... Soooo, how's everyone?! =) Well, i hope...
I was just reading blogs of strangers, etc etc... and I've come to realise that people don't always write the truth... cos people are reading these posts... I mean, I was even told off by a well-loved friend (or ex-friend, i really dunno our status) for trying to be truthful about something... and instead of apologising for the truth that was subtly confessed in an email, I was cursed at... Instead of a gratified thanks, I found out I was, in fact, the actual cause of the entire incident. And this incident had been running for an obvious 2yrs prior to my butting in thru the post!! ~sigh~ I've always maintained that ONLY FRIENDS TELL U THE TRUTH & NOT WHAT U WANT TO HEAR... but if a friend refuses to see the truth, then my work as a friend is no longer needed.... and the best thing to do is just shut up & retreat, for nothing is worse than a crossfire of hurtful words... and I don't do hurtful words... I'm also not looking for gratitude, nor an apology... Like the softie I've always been, I've forgiven my friend (well, a friend will always remain a friend) & God can ascertain the number of times I've mentioned that name in my prayers & thoughts... And today, I was casually informed that maybe finally the truth has dawned on my friend... but I doubt it... The physical truth may have been passed down, but the ACTUAL truth of why, how and for how long it's been happening has still not been accepted by my friend. And that's really sad... cos a person who doesn't want to know the truth, will never be able to move on in life. If life seems like it's moving forward, it's in actual fact, deteriorating... To some, it may be the start of drinking, hanging out till late nites, smoking, etc... Just doing anything to cover the hurt... I hope with all the goodness in my bones that my friend sees the light and look for the truths. I still have that truth if u're interested in accepting them... and only if u're interested in moving on... cos friend, believe me, u don't seem to be moving forward... Oh well, then again, wat do i know, right? Then, why do i even care?! Cos I still love you... Monday, February 16, 2004
It's been a scorcher today... yesterday was meant to be 35�C, but it was 36.5�C... and I had to go to Midland Markets & believe me, u won't wanna be there at this temperature... However, it's been forecast that today will be 37�C, but i think it's much much higher than that, eh!!! And tomorrow's forecast is 38�C... and again, I think it's gonna be more than 40�C!!! ~sigh~ Even in the fully airconditioned house, we're sweating!! The poor AC is working really really hard the past few days!! And I foresee it's gonna be worse when my parents are here for my Convocation!!!
Yeap, that's right!! I'm gonna graduate on Monday nite!! yay!!! Been waiting for this day for quite some time!! hehehe... I'll prolly pay off the loan I've got with my parents first... and then proceed on with Masters... hopefully by then I'll already be Aussie PR & may even get aid in uni's fees!! insya Allah!! Anyway, I'm gonna organise some dinner... it's already 6pm!! See u soon!! More updates soon... Friday, February 13, 2004
here i am in the wee bits of the morning & I'm still up... why u ask? well, I'm waiting for a few loads of laundry to be done... I've already done 2 & the 3rd one is still being tumbled & washed... and while waiting, I'm chatting with Lin as I'm typing...
Just telling her what I've been doing the whole day... Been preparing for the 2 clients to come for a facial... as usual, had a blast!! hehe... and then, kris came home, I managed to rest for awhile... before i had to cook for a dinner party with 2 msian friends of whom 1 is going back to Sarawak at 5am later... and they both know Kris prior to me & him getting to know each other even!! So, had a lot to talk about... Then, I did the bucketload of dishes... and couldn't fall asleep... So, i thot, hmmm... might as well do some laundry while I'm waiting to get sleepy... and now, I'm really sleepy!! but I have to wait to hang the laundry once the machine finishes the miracle technological wonder... I reckon by the time I'm done with the laundry, it's already time for me to get up & prepare Kris' breakkie!! and then, I'll have to bring all the laundry out into the backyard & put them out on the line cos the sun is really strong at 7am!! Oh, also, cos I wanna wear my fave jeans tmrw when I meet Ling at Carousel at 12nn... Can u imagine, I have to walk 30mins to get to the train station that will take me to my destination in 2mins!!! ~sigh~ wat an irony!! so, to meet Ling at 12.20, I'll have to leave the house like 11.40!! when it's really hot!! ~sigh~ but it's ok... I'm just whingeing cos I'll have to walk in between dark alleys all by myself!! =( Hopefully there's gonna be nothing going wrong tmrw!! ok... I'm going off... nitez... I'm too sleepy to face computer... but now Lin is asking me all these software & hardware questions for her friend... ~argh~ nvm... I'll help wherever my help is needed ~shining tooth smile~ Wednesday, February 11, 2004
Hi all... how's everyone doing? I've just been busy with getting the house ready... Kris managed to get the basics of the wardrobe done... and have already started on the framing of the other wardrobe's doors in his master bedroom so that my parents could hang some clothes... hopefully he can get the frames & doors up by the end of the week... tonite, he's coming back to get everything fixed up... cos he doesn't wanna leave the bifold doors in the lounge when my clients come for their facials tmrw...
Anyhow, I've already got some clothes into my office wardrobe... cos I'll be sleeping in this room for the period of my parents' visit... and all the other clothes will remain in the other bunk bedroom where most of my clothes occupy the 2 wardrobes there... can't leave them all in there cos Kris will be using that room in that period... ~sigh~ I dunno what I'm gonna do about all those clothes when Kris' brother & dad comes for the annual 2mth visit and needs the wardrobe!! I'll have to drag the clothes rail into my bedroom... hehehe... hopefully his sis doesn't decide to come as well... that'll mean, I'll have to get ALL my clothes out of all the wardrobes & toss them into the shed!!! harharharhar... Yesterday, i didn't really do much... Let's see... untangled all the wires & fixed the wiring of my pc & relocated the entire thing to the position i want... i can't stand seeing dangling cords & unmanaged wiring!! ~sigh~ Anyway, managed to dump some of my boxes onto the 4 new shelves kris just fixed above the workbench... have my printer up there too... I love my new printer!! hehehe =) it's sooo slim & can be folded when not using!!! I oso washed the bathtub & shower... later, I'll have to mop the floors... Kris haven't got a vacuum cleaner cos his exploded on him a while ago... his brother was sucking up water with it... thinking that it works the same like the one they have back in Belgium!! harharhar... Today, I'll have to organise the stuff I've got in my office... and then, clean organise the pantry too... cos there's heaps of junk that kris had accummulated & left in there... at least, I can put in the food in there & get the junk out into the shed or relocate into the cabinets... At least I've contacted the office in Sydney, and hopefully I'll get my newsletters and new brochures by tmrw arvo or friday... cos Saturday's the crossover period!! And I've got things I wanna get too... looks quite interesting... Ok... I'm going to do the dishes and clean the beds... and then, I'm gonna start on tidying my office!! Just have to lug the tv back in here!! hehehe... it was in the bedroom last nite cos the of the Playboy 50th Anniversary on late nite show!! ehehehe... ok... have fun!! and take care... =) Friday, February 06, 2004
one whole month have passed by... much have changed... I'm now officially staying with my bf and we've been trying our best to make the house look and feel more & more like home... and now that the curtains in the dining room and lounge has got nice curtain rods & sheer curtains, it's very very nice... =)
ALL of the materials for the built-in wardrobes are finally here... Kris has started with my bedroom as his project... he's now handling the doors behind me as I'm typing... but we both don't think it'll be in time for when my parents come... at least we went to Ikea yesterday & got an ANTONIUS rack and 4 FABIAN shelves to put into the wardrobe... However, there was a misprint on the literature that we've picked up from there 2wks before... and when one of the staff was approached becos of something which we cld make a big fuss about in the store, he just gave a shrug & said that it was merely a misprint!! And guess what?! There were heaps of misprints!!! The rack was too small!! We had made calculations according to their MISPRINT!!! And to think that the staff knew that there were misprints in prices & measurement & they had not done anything about it... At least, I wld have alerted the management & get them to suggest to throw out the literature or if not, to get someone to change all the misprints... I'm sooo disappointed with them!! And another disappointment... Yesterday Kris came home before lunchtime cos the office had no parts for the trucks that the staff were working on!! Can u imagine that?! Having to leave office & waste the day away & then report the rest of the day as a sicky (becos they had to go home) just becos some incompetent department couldn't understand that it's no use getting sales & mechanic work coming in if the parts are not there in the first place!!! Sack the FACKING lousy incompetent manager for that parts department!! Then again, i realised that a lot of businesses in Australia is like that... alot of shops always make a habit of understocking for at least 2wks and the longest time I've ever had to wait for a product was 9weeks!!! There was no printer toner at OFFICEWORKS and it took them that long to stock back this entire blank rack of toner of sorts!!! What kind of business practice is that?! Geeezzz... They won't last in other parts of the world, I tell u!! Anyway, this weekend will be pretty busy for Kris... he'll be wanting to put the shelves in my room... and also the doors will keep him occupied!! He'll need a few more weeks before he cld get the double bi-fold doors in his master bedroom wardrobe to even take shape!! Had to tell my parents they'll have to sleep with those mess for the 2wks they're gonna be here for my convocation!! Hehehe... They're alright with it!! ok ok... I've gotta go get dinner organised!! see ya... till then... Wednesday, January 07, 2004

Merry Christmas one and all... =)
A bit tired now... after packing & shifting a whole wagon-full of my stuff from the other house... When Reen comes over for the new year, he'll have a nice room (small tho'), a bunk bed, wardrobe, stereo, etc... better than hotel man!! hehehe... Yeah, but my room will be in a mess!!! We're still waiting for the doors for the built-in wardrobesv (BIR)... otherwise, all my clothes would have to stay in suitcases, boxes & Reen's room's 2 wardrobes!!! That's how much clothes I've got!! hehehe... And we have to go to Ikea to get some of the wire racks as well... seems much better in our BIR... What's gonna happen from here onwards? Well, I've already completed a part of my application for the graduate skilled temporary stay... am just waiting for the skill assessment to be handed back... and then, the Skilled Migration form will be sent with all the other documentation!! It's been a tiring 3weeks!! Especially when the 3 departments in the 3 different states dunno wat the other is doing... Not that I'm saying anything bad about them... being a huge country-continent & all... but I wished that their answers would all be the same instead of all giving different answers and the other departments refusing to accept the other dept's suggestion... Well, in the end, I got really pissed off & told one of the depts off... and the next day, when I called, the lady told me something I needed to hear & sent the forms in right away... Ok... I'm gonna finish this blog off, go put in some sales (my own) into Nutrimetics, then I'm gonna unpack some stuff so that I can pack other stuff for tmrw... Kris & I are going to the house in Preston Beach to spend Boxing Day with my fam... Tash is now staying there with Adam... and the house is gorgeous... but tonite, I'll have to be at my fam's house for christmas dinner/party... and i dunno wat to bring them... At least I've got all the prezzies done up & ready to go!! And Kris was happy with his prezzies too... ~wink~ Oritey... I'm off... HAVE A GOOD ONE... and if yaz didn't get a prezzy this morning, it's only cos u forgot that Santa wanted 2 carrots & a beer this yr... not a cookie and warm milk!! ~tsk tsk tsk~ Don't tell me u didn't know!!! hehehhee... Oh, what? U're not from Australia... well, that's why!! The above only applies to Santas in Oz!! hohoho.... Merry Christmas to all... and to all, a Happy New Year!!! Sunday, November 23, 2003
Hi all... It has been a while hasn't it?! Anyway, I'm just about to shower... even though the time is pretty late... Will have to go into town with Kris to get some stuff for his house... like new towels, rugs, bowls, etc... Cos I might be moving into his place soon... No money... so, have to stay with a friend who is kind enough to give me a room without rent!! But I don't like to impose... so, I'll have to quickly find a good job & at the same time try & negotiate something with the landlord on late rent payment while I find a job... And let's not forget my PR application fees as well... ~sigh~
My business is not moving, even though it's always a struggle in the beginning... but the beginning is not at a good time!!! So, I dunno... need to find a job... cos need to pay for rent!! Need to get my business going... cos need to eat!!! Luckily Kris is kind enough... Anyway, I've just did an order online for my products... cos Kris & his mates ordered something for a colleague's new baby boy & his wife... and i'll have to collect them on Tuesday... See if Chanel can pick them up tmrw instead when she's doing her BPT2... Hopefully the order came through & she can pick them up... So that I can save a trip... I'm currently installing some software on Kris' pc... and it's taking a little bit more time than I anticipated!! I wanna have a look at the Microsoft 2003 soon... now that I've got nothing much to do... Hari Raya Puasa is on Wednesday... but I haven't heard anything from BakNor yet... So, dunno if I'll be going over this Wed or Sat instead like last year... I miss my family... and I wish that BakNor will call soon... maybe i shld give him another call soon.... Ok... have to shower... Sunday, October 26, 2003
Ok people... it's been awhile... but it'll be awhile more before I start blogging proper again... Have a programming project due this friday, which i don't think i'll be able to finish even half of it!! But I'll try... definitely... Have just handed in a major individual marketing memo-assignment (about 50 pages worth of just words!!), and have finished one extremely major final presentation... So, now, I've wasted about 4 days just to start up the assignment... Just finished my tute... uploaded it into the online postings... and now, will have to start on my manual planning of the programme... ok ok... have to go... u guys, take care... and to all muslims of the world... have a good fasting month... =) Tuesday, October 07, 2003
Very very busy day!! Had to start on my major assignment. Went for the meeting & members had a fright by the amount of work we have to accomplish by this Friday. No time for dilly-dally watsoever!!! No time for breathing, even!! ~argh~ Freaking out!! And I still have to do one of my shows this Thursday afternoon... I dunno how I'm going to get thru it all!! But I've gotta be methodical and juz get stuff done proper head on!! I can do this!!
Have gotta start on my assignments (well, at least on one of them) by tonite!! ~argh~ And doing that while I email to my members watever I've got earlier during the meeting so they can see wat they can add on... Anyway, got a lift home from Joseph... saved me heaps of time waiting for the stupid hourly hostel shuttle!! Anyhow, started the evening by confirming all my appointments for the week & next as well... & made all the calls I needed to make... and got online... ooohhh... I need to make another call to my manager later in a few minutes... after I blog this!!! Ooooh... I did this quiz... fabulous!!! Go try it!! =)  What Finding Nemo Character are You? brought to you by Quizilla Thursday, October 02, 2003
yeah yeah... i know i know... haven't updated in awhile... Have really good reasons for it... I was stressed... been in love, been mounted with more work, been hurt, been training... been spending money for work... I keep telling myself: In order to make money, u've gotta spend money!! So that's why... And I'm not spending money for myself, it's more for work... ok? Had to clarify that, cos I AM known for high retail spending behaviours!! hehehe...
Anyway, it's nearly the end of my 2nd 1wk break here in Perth, and becos of all the stress, I've been sick & depressed and hadn't been able to do much... Today, I finally managed to get something done just to reorganise my life a tiny tad... I've gotta get into the groove of doing some work by Sunday so that I can start the last 2wks of uni before exams... there's just heaps to do!! Called the bf earlier & he sounded ok, promised he'd call me as soon as he gets back from the shops & Bunnings with his Pops... they need some materials to get the house standing... but I'm not sure if he'd call back... haven't heard from him for abt a wk... and am really hoping to have a chat with him... If he doesn't call me tonite, I reckon I'll be devastated... but then again, sometimes he does forget... can't blame him... Supposed to go to the movies with some friends tonite at 9+, but I reckon I'll just stay home & have an early nite... I DO have a show tmrw at home!! And I've gotta sort out stuff!! And see wat else I'm supposed to get from the shops tmrw... and also I've gotta see wat I've gotta do too.... So, I'm off... dunno when u'll hear something from me again, but I'll definitely blog... juz dunno when... ~cheerio~ oooh, and help me pray for my sanity... thanks... Thursday, September 18, 2003
Hello semua!! Tak tahu angin apa yang dah meresap masuk ke dalam kepala si Shahreen... catatan bloggernya dalam bahasa Melayu!! Walaupun tutur-bicaranya karat benar, dia masih juga nak mencuba!! Tapi, tergelak juga kita dibuatnya!! Tak percaya, lihatlah sendiri!!
Tetapi, sebagai kakak dan kawannya, tetap akan kita memberi dorongan baginya untuk terus mencuba. Malahan, saya tetap akan menyokong and memuji sesiapa saja yang menunjukkan kebanggaan mereka terhadap pengetahuan dan tingkah-laku mereka dalam adat-resam, kebudayaan, peradaban, dan yang paling penting, bahasa. Memang telah dimaklumkan bahawa bahasa ibunda kita, bahasa Melayu itu adalah salah satu bahasa yang terlembut di muka dunia ini. Dicampur dengan peradaban sopan-santun budaya Melayu dan pertuturan bunga-bungaan bahasanya, bagaimanakah kita tidak bangga dengan hak kita? Sudah pasti, banyak lagi bahasa yang mempunyai keunikan tersendiri. Seperti bahasa yang terbanyak mempunyai perkataan, frasa, makna terlindung dan makna-makna yang paling teliti di dunia ini adalah Bahasa Arab. Sehinggakan lebih dari 500 perkataan dan frasa, yang mula-mulanya dipinjam dan sekarang, langsung telah diakui tanpa segan oleh kaum Barat bahawa ianya adalah sebahagian dari bahasa Inggeris! Bukan Bahasa Arab sahaja yang diterkam, juga bahasa Perancis [seperti vis a vis], Jerman [seperti uber], dan lain-lain lagi... Hmmm... saya memulakan catatan hari ini bukan bermaksud untuk meletakkan bahasa Inggeris di tangga pengadilan, tetapi untuk mengajak semua sahabat-handai dan sanak-saudara bersama-sama berjuang membina kembali bahasa dan bangsa kita yang perlahan-lahan pudar dengan edaran masa dan pengaruh-pengaruh baru, yang kebanyakannya dari Barat. Yang menyedihkan pula, ramai muda-mudi sekarang langsung angkuh dan bangga dengan pengakuan pasti yang mereka tidak pernah dan/atau tidak akan ambil-tahu tentang bahasa indah ini yang sememangnya bakat semulajadi tiap seseorang! Walaupun pendapat awam banyak menunjukkan bahawa pengetahuan dalam beberapa bahasa itu adalah pencapaian yang boleh dijadikan sebagai satu sukses, lagi-lagi di zaman globalisasi ini. Malah adalah dianggap seperti satu kegagalan besar sekiranya seseorang itu tidak mengerti dan tidak pasti dengan pertuturan bahasa ibundanya sendiri. Sedari kecil lagi, orang tua saya berpesan bahawasanya, untuk maju di dalam dunia luas ini, kita harus memastikan kemajuan pada tahap asas, iaitu tahap mengenal diri... Tanpa bahasa, bangsa, budaya, ugama dan asal-usul, tiadanya kita. Kenallah diri sendiri barulah akan kenal erti kemajuan. Sangat mengkagumkan yang ilham si Reen ini dapat membangkitkan falsafah keluarga yang tidak selalu saya renungkan. Jadi ada juga baiknya catatan-catatan blogger, ya? =) Marilah kita dorong satu sama lain untuk membuat catatan blogger dalam bahasa Melayu!! Tapi, janganlah terlalu mendalam eh, nanti terpinga-pinga kita cari makna-makna di dalam kamus!! Macam tak ada kerja lain gituuuu.... =)  |
