My Sepu is coming to town :p

He’s coming to Miri tonight… JHB-KL-MYY…

I just could not figure out why do we have to pay for the trip by flight back to KL? It should be company’s policy not to allow land transportation beyond 5pm, or let me be lenient a bit, give them 7pm… Sepu bought his flight ticket to Miri a month ago, and scheduled his leave at the same time. I’ve always been pissed off with his company’s actions, and now??? They have interfered with our ‘reunion’ twice… We will have to pay out from our own pocket for the change in itinerary… gossshhh… Even in my previous Company I could claim from the Company for any discrepancies in my allowances and expenses…

Having meeting on Friday, soon after a Thursday off… and again… Monday next week off… ridiculous. Luckily Sepu did not take leave today, and book on Wednesday night flight. Would be a real hassle, should they ask him to cancel his leave and change his flight… grossssss…

He will have to find new job… But now that he’s bonded to the Company (his own mistake though, could not say anything), he will have to bear another year there… and like it or not, will have to really show himself off to get higher bonus next year. He has been working hard… but the problem is, he had always been a latecomer… In a small Company, people tend to judge you if you come to work late, and they wont give a damn even though you compensate your late coming with overtime at night without making claims… most probably they are the 9-5 type of workers… anything beyond 5 would be considered as extra hour, nothing special, for them!!!

I love working here, and in addition, I love what I am doing … that’s why it is hard for me to make decision to quit. The environment, not that much of nosy people, never micro-management, and everybody keeps on her/his side of the table… as long as you finish your job in/on time, you’d be appreciated… no matter how late you come to work and how far stretched at night you continue to be at your work station… what you achieve is the most important aspect. People acknowledge your effort here… and are very considerate when it comes to family matter. You can go out and bring your children to clinic without having to apply for leave… you can request your leave anytime, as long as you have somebody to rely on to do your work during your absence, and here, it’s not hard to get somebody who is willing to help. Because we do not compete unnecessarily here… we are doing work as a team, we help each other…

Stop talking bad about T***… Making my blood go upstairs...

Family matter...

Today, i found my brother's blog... made me cry... touched with what he felt / had been feeling all this while...

I have 2 brothers and a little sister... The younger brother passed away 5 years ago at the tender age 19... Now we are 3 in numbers instead of four.



I love all of them with my whole heart... missing them every minute... thinking about them, what are they doing, are they happy? But they will never know this... I could only call them once in a while... sometimes, i would be there with them, but only sometimes... It would be like this, had been like this for a long time. I was always far away... but rest assure, i've never been apart... they are always on my mind, forever in my heart...

About my brother, aedun's blog...

He sounds lonely, i could feel that... and he has lost touch with himself... he needs something to pull him through the blackness that has been engulfing his life since... since when... i do not know... From the way that he's written the blog, he has no more relationship with his long stretched long distance girlfriend... but i could feel that they remained as friends since.... When did this happen? Started long time ago, i presume...

Their relationship has never been easy... Mama was reluctant at first, dont know why... maybe the distance? I've asked her about her feelings, and she denied of not liking the girl... it was just that somebody's going to take her son from her. She needed assurance that she will not lose anything by giving away his 'baby boy'... All mothers feel this way, dont they? ermmm... maybe not all...

How about her parents? They would be feeling the same way i guess... but they have acted differently when our family visited them way back in November 2002... 4 months before eddie passed away...

I always like the girl... for me, as long as she loves my brother and is willing to be by his side, for better and for worse... nothing else matter... she has been a great friend... and I know that she would become a great sister in law too... But when will this happen? Or would this happen?

Love is blind???

Long distance relationships do not always end with break-ups... I've faced the same thing, but luckily for me... our relationship is blessed...

I would like to see my brother found his happiness... amiin... Please... find your happiness Dun... nobody can help you... reluctance are just excuses... find ways if you really want to be happy... if you want what you want... dont pity yourself... strive... please strive!!!

My sister is coming tomorrow, it's her school holiday... and the brother will be here starting 25/12/2007, until i give birth... then we'll be going back together, to Kuching. It has been 2 months since my last trip... and in January, will be back there with the new addition to the family, amiin...

My husband is also coming next week, till 02/01/2008... and he'll be on call then... waiting for the labor!
