August 31st

August 31st. I still remember when I was in Malaysia, I would always complain at this particular date. Why? Cause all the shops and entertainment will close down to celebrate the National Independence Day. I still remember when I was a small kid, when Astro was still unavailable in my house, I will complain more as there are no movies or cartoons played in the TV channels.

Still remember last year, my cousin was one of the MCA party members brought me to Stadium Merdeka for the celebration. Well, normally people don't get VIP view if we are not belong to any of the parties. I am not the patriotic type of person but I still tagged along as I know it can be quite an experience for me. Watching the whole celebrations in front of the crowd. That was last year event. I still remember I did shake hand with the MCA president. Did I? And who is he again?

This year, they do have celebration in Melbourne. At some hotel. Some of my friends did ask me to go but to me, I will celebrate it next time when I am back in Malaysia. Not here.. Not now..

Wish all the Malaysian, Happy Independence Day. Hope Malaysia will turn up to be a better place for all.

Maldive

Yea. It is not easy to find the group of friends with the same goals and mind set.

Found a nice place to play pool. Around JCH college in the city. Basically, Daniel stay there so I can use the place anytime. Nice place with a lot of friendly people. As usual, I am lucky with '9 balls' games. While chatting, finally I realize that there are people who know about Maldives beach as well as the Club Med there.

Finally.... Well, now I shall aim higher and change my life trough my business. It is changing my life as well as a lot of other people.

Back to the topic. I shall introduce Club Med in Maldives. What do they have? A very nice beach from the picture. That is all about it cause I still have not been there.

I will not forget bout the Club Med in Malaysia. Why? Got pushed from a high place while training the flying trapeze.

This trick on the left is not hard. It is easy. I can do it too.....







Life again is getting boring. I will really need cash to travel around.

New songs to recommend "不能说走就走"

Third posts today. On the very same day. Why? Got forced to post this one up. A friend said that I must post this up to remind myself of something that I shouldn't do again. Suddenly fly of to a new place for my studies.

不能说走就走
BY: 罗美玲 黄晨富-不能说走就走

男:爱犯了错我不该让你难过
能不能现在就拥你入怀中
女:你的爱太匆匆你的爱太沉重
对你的期待又害怕成空

男:从你眼中我看见自己的放纵
无心带给你的伤自己也不懂
女:停止这一切折磨别让眼泪将我淹没
男人残忍的眼眸看不见女人的痛

男:我不能面对世界没有你的空洞(女:你怎能说来就来)
男:也无法停止对你的期盼和冲动(女:说走就走)
女:你忘了男人该有的手
也忘了男人应该有的执着

男:爱不是激情过后残留下的伤口(女:你怎能说来就来)
男:只求能再度拥抱你温柔的笑容(女:说走就走)
女:你忘了曾经爱过的人
合:为了爱一个人默默承受背叛的伤痛

Haha. This is my style. Want to do then do. Want to come to Australia to study then come. Sorry for those who I never mentioned it to you guys. Anyway, it happened for quite sometimes since I came to Melbourne to study. Forget bout it.

Simple calculations.

A simple calculations. I still remember Daniel telling me about his friend who is studying actuarial, starts calculating their expenses. I will now start to calculate how a normal guy or girl go trough their life. It is fun to do a bit of calculations.

An average lifestyle of a university graduates.
Graduates at the age of 22 years old.
Look for a job. If lucky, got a suitable job at age of 23. Start from low level because only GOT Bachelor Degree. Salary around 4000 bucks a month.
Later on... Having 'FUN' working. Get scolded... Get OT(Over time)... Get lesser holidays... Get experiences... Get competitions... Get worries... Get pay... Get cars + Get house = Get A LOT OF LOANS... Wahsei.. What also get!! NICE right??

Okla.. After 2 years of working. Got a raised. Add another 400 bucks (Provided if you are very lucky.)
Since got a raised. Eat better. Live better. If possible, get new car to drive(heavier loan). Now age 24, got more stuff to get. Get a wife... Get some savings... Get insurance... Get credit cards... Maybe Get kids... More stuff to "GET". Sweeter life.....

Now is for the lucky 20% of the people, GOT PROMOTED after another 3 years working. Oh My God!! Salary has being increased again. Double up. 8800 bucks. What to do?
That is something you will need. Get bigger house(New loan again)... Now add expenses for a whole family. All these at age of 27.

Usually after promotion, you will have to work for another 10 years? That is for another lucky 20% to get promoted again. This time, age of 37. Salary will be around 25k bucks per month? However, the children going into university. Educations are not cheap nowadays. Plus other UNSEEN expenses.

AND life goes on....................... (Always full with calculations and learning on how to get enough money to lead a normal life)

Well, the normal life I had mentioned, provided if you are the lucky 20% for a few times. Provided if you can find the job you want. And also provided if you can get that pay.

The question is "When to retire?" When the children step into the society and start working? But they will be going trough the process again. Unless, they are some of the lucky 20% again for a few times. Then you can retire early.

Better don't think about it right? So, enjoy your life now and being fed by your parents till you go trough the CYCLE of LIFE.

What if things don't go so well? What if accidents happen during the cycle? What if..... Things just happen out of nowhere.....

Busy.. But fun..

It has been quite sometimes since I update my blog. There are people who ask me what happen? lol. I have got no choice. My team is growing. I have to put in more time to guide and learn to guide my team. Besides that, assignments and also tests are coming. After all that, I will have to prepare myself to go for a trip at Gold Coast. Invitation to Movie World at night. Nicely booked for just a few people.

In life, what do we want to achieve? Those who know me, know that I basically treat everything as games. Studies, works, friendships, and etc. All these are just part of our life.

Plan B? What is plan B? Many people do not know about this. What can we achieve? Many of us are being programmed. Programmed to do what? From young, it is normal for every parents to tell their child, " STUDY HARD HARD. Then get good results. After that you will be able to find a good job in future." How sure are they that this trend can goes on even for our future in a few more years time? Many companies are slashing jobs and positions just to be able to face the economy downturn. Will there be enough jobs in the future for everyone? We also might not know when it is our turn to be slashed by these companies.

Yea.. We always heard about, "Wow, you go to UK, America or Australia study ah. If you work part time also can cover back your school fees." If only you work like HELL everyday. Provided you are able to find a good job for you to even WORK LIKE HELL. Many of us do not know bout this. WHY? Many rich kids around. Do not have to worry about their expenses.
"Aiya, I no need plan B."

I was thinking. I know so many friends. Their family are rich. Parents provide them with everything. However, once they step into the society, will their parents be able to continue supporting them? Or their lifestyle will change after that. There are a lot of competitions outside. There are up and downs. Where will they be? I did think about it. Where will I be too? Well, if I am going to be somewhere on top. I will have to start something now.

Haha. Simple. Many will just think. "Wait till I get my degree than I will be able to find a good job." Nowadays, there are a lot of graduates outside. Till now I still believe that, the certs that we are going to get will not help us in the future. It will for 20 years ago. Even so, 20 years ago, it help a lot of people to get an average lifestyle only. NOT RICH.

So far till now. In my life, I think even among friends, I don't think many have that kind of thought to be successful. Among friends, so far, I think those who has the mind set to be successful are people like, Debbie? Han Foong? U Jun? Kai Young? and now lately, this new friend, Kristine? Maybe because, even before they are given the chance or opportunity, they have already start thinking on how to look for opportunity.

Why do I choose to come to Australia? One of the reason is I want to change myself and my life. Look for an opportunity and work for it. Yea, rather than keep having fun in Malaysia and achieve nothing.

Hypocrite

Please do not use staple on this notice board. Well... Using staple on the warning notice is not a very good idea.









Since my friend saw the notice stuck there with double sided tape, he felt insecure for the people who paste the thing there. Adding a few staples around it will secure the notice a bit.

Should have done that earlier.

From my latest encounter with some barbaric and irresponsible manager, finally the company decide to pay back my lost. Good company with good service. Maybe that will be after they fired the so called floor manager. They should have just pay me another bottle of Black Label instead of having me going up and down to the city to settle that matter.

Sweet way.

One week passed. Week 4 now for this semester. Still got a few things that I have to finish with. Materials online test. Read up a bit of Dynamics? Maybe do a bit of research for Profession?

Learn a lot during profession class for today. Basically learn more bout my own personality. From the survey outcome I am basically,
INTUITIVE type
EXTROVERTS type
THINKING type
JUDGING type

The conclusion is Hearty, frank, decisive leaders in activities. Usually good in anything that requires reasoning and intelligent talk, such as public speaking. Are usually well informed and enjoy adding to their fun of knowledge. May sometimes appear more positive and confident than their experience in the area warrants.

Hmm. The job I am more suitable for is Leadership and Management. Why am I in engineering? from the Intuition type, I think I can be a very good economist in the future. =.=

Yesterday I did encountered something cool. Well, went back to Party World to take back the liquor which was left behind by Kah Ho during his birthday party. That guy do has his way of appreciating his birthday present. Haha. Reached the counter and talk to the manager nicely,
" Hey, I had left a bottle of Black Label here last week. Can get it back?". Asking him politely..
He is some CHINABENG MOTHERF***er. "Our policy here is only keep the things for three days then we throw it away?"
"Policy? You should have put a sign informing people b....." Giving the face with an expression of =.=.
"Nono. My word is the policy here."
"Wah, yo...."
"We only keep for three days. Then we throw it away. You should have called us so that we can keep it for you."
"Eih, how would your c...."
"The cleaners will throw it. Our policy here is like that. We only keep things for three days."
In my mind. This GODDAMNIT MO****F*****. Don't even give us the chance to talk. Willie took out a pen and wrote down the details of the events and whatever the guy is saying.
"Shhhhhhh....."
"You don't shhh me."
"So if people l....."
"Our policy is to throw the things after three days. We do not keep it for more than three days."
"Shhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!" This time I made the gesture to ask him to keep quiet.
"You DON'T shh me"
"SHHHHHHH!!!!!" continuing the fun of annoying the guy. At last, he keep quiet there with a solemn looking face.
" Eih, black label just cost me 55 bucks okay. The value of the thing is my friend's birthday present. You guys simply throw customer's things?"
Things goes on BLA BLA BLA........

I do admire the way Willie handle the case calmly recording everything down. That really taught me on how to handle this kind of cases. If is back in Malaysia. I will be laughing loudly and glare back at him demanding a better resolutions. Sweet way of handling the guy. Shall see how he looks like when we go back to meet his manager.

Our conclusion is. That *** drank the black label. At a manager, he will ask around to see if anyone know the whereabouts of the black label and settle this calmly.
