Kursus Pengenalan Pegawai Pengurusan & Profesional Baru JKR Malaysia 2009
Part 1
Well, how to start?! Guess I'll just commence with the fact that my legs are aching and bruising, my lips are cracking and I missed my 8 hours rest a day, sighing. But hey, that's the only negative things that occured during the previous 7 days I've been through. Now let's go to the great things that I believe have made my days yet made the course so useful to me. I made lots of friends, I got to know lots of GREAT people yet HUMBLE, I found out myself as a THINKER, I created replicas, I gave an impromptu speech, I managed to be a good mentor and had such a good MONITOR, I managed to fill up my physical test (eventhough actually I did not manage to finish on time and did not manage to lift my partner to the end, he he, I am a weak person and I admit it that way. I accept the way I am but believe me, I actually always try to build my stamina and I am not that stupid to make fool of myself and God has given me a BRAIN to balance myself), last but not least I be myself and I accepted others' opinions openly.
Just talk to mommy, and now I am so sleepy. Will be writing back tomorrow for the 2nd part of the previous exciting experiences that I've gained. Thank God, You always made me stand firm on your solid ground and I believe You have something there.. Miss mommy so bad!!!!!!
Gong xi Gong xi.. Yes people, today is the day when all the Chinese celebrating their new year and that is why I am using RED font colour today!
Regarding to the title of my post today, yep, it is my beloved cousin, Judith's Engagement day, with her fiance, Carl. Well I am not sure whether the spelling is correct, I hope so! And while all our relatives gathered in kampung now, here we are, me myself, Max, Jessica, Mark and Odin celebrating our own CNY, LOLs. Haven't prepare anything yet, but planning to do so :D Talked to my uncle just now since I missed to pick his call yesterday. Told him about my whereabouts and my experiences in this new environment. Most of all about JKR. Not to forget mentioning about my first posting which is supposedly in Kelantan, duhh. And I was like hearing some voices saying; "Nunu?? Kelantan??", ha ha very funny! But hey, I managed to be based in KL, lucky me huh.. Now we are still sharing a table, 3 of us to be exact, he he, due to the largest enrollment of Civil Engineers from MOW this year. But they said it will be fixed up right away after this looong holidays, hopefully! Thought that working with the government is not as hard as in private sector, but when I heard of these PTK, BTN and all, it's kind of worrying, you know, the feeling of scared that you won't be able to do it or may be pass the exams, euwww..
The weather here is kind of cloudy now, it's like going to rain in awhile. Really reminds me of the weather back in Sabah while I was there back then. And now my thoughts are spinning back to kampung; "What are they doing now?", "Are they missing us here, realize about our absence there?", "Guess they are having this gossiping among them and having fun and makan-makan and all"... Sighing, miss kampung! But this is the challenge that I really have to go through now I believe, being strong physically and mentally!!!
Now I feel like want to rest for awhile.. Gosh, need a break, this smell of Ridsect made my head dizzy!!!
So, this is so my first week in Peninsular, well in Shah Alam for sure. What a blessing, it's a 4-days cuti in a row dude!!! My body is so tired back 5 days due to the hassle during my reporting for duty session. Been here and there for registration purpose, up and down and FINALLY; I am based in JKR Headquarter's KL, Corporate Sector (Human Resource Unit). Yea, you heard me, if you feel like want to drop by, feel free to visit me at 4th floor of Public Works Department, KL :D
Naahh, recalling back the day that I found out myself to be posted in Kelantan, it's still a nightmare. Doesn't mean I don't like Kelantan but I don't have anybody there, plus I just came here to settle down, now I have to be there to settle down again? I mean, how could I adapt and work there if my heart belongs to another place? So tried my best to get a transfer and yes, GOD, thank you for everything!
So started working and I really am still blur, don't know what actually I should do, what's Human Resource, I mean I heard of it before but I never had a thought that I'll be in this field. Won't use my technical knowledge for awhile, but in the system, everyone will have the chance to feel in all sector of the department. It's like a rotation! I hope I could give my best shot and that's what matters.
Now I am with Max! He's busy browsing his friend's blog and I am updating mine. It's so hot in here, still remember back in Sabah it used to rain everyday! Now talking about Sabah, the feeling of missing everyone at home come, grrrr. Seriously, I still am not fully I am here, sigh... It's good that Max is here and feels so like homiey. Will is busy at the mill, well most probably he'll go to work again tomorrow, umm, missing him too. But I guess this is life, God has His own plans and it's the goodness for everyone, so let's just see what happens next, yaaa?
Next week, will go to work by Komuter, so that I can stop troubling Mark and Jessica. Jessica's due is either this end of February or early March, all of us can't wait the coming of new member in the family :D
Umm, guess I've to take nap for awhile, kind of sleepy and just want to lay down to rest. I still remember how terrible my first week is. Sleep for only 6 hours a day, (OK I know this is maybe terlebih suda for some, but me I need some more) and 6-7am here is like 5-6am in Sabah, adui mak, lagilah I am not motivated to wake up at all. 6-7pm here is like 5-6pm in Sabah, tend to delay my shower time and all. Gosh! But I believe I could cope to this and I really can't wait to venture JKR!!!! Awesome
Have a good day everyone, and Gong Xi Fa Chai, xin nian quai le.. Poor Max, he's having running nose, akakaka..
Apparently there are some technical problems that I can't post the piccies during my Farewell, but if happen you're free, please visit my Facebook: yon_minx@yahoo.com.
Now I am currently at Shah Alam, at my very kind-hearted cousin's place, Jessica. Oh boy, God knows how I've been troubling Jessica's family these few days. Taking me from LCCT, give me a space to stay in, sending and taking me from home to MOW (Ministry of Works), enough say! God do bless this family and give them good health that I don't think I'll be able to pay all these goodness.
My first day went to work;
Was from Cheras to KL. Cheras is my kakak angkat place and I wish to thank her as well for being so caring to help me settle down on my first day, sorry for all the troubles encountered! First day was good, get to know a bunch of new people and I could say some have been very helpful and welcoming! At times I was like afraid to start a conversation but as this mouth can't help to stay shut, I really have to talk to the person next to me :) Ha ha, funny though when they thought I am locally KL. Then when I explained I'm from Sabah, they were like puzzled and surprised. (Ahxx, punyalah, cya Kadus bah!)
2nd day, which is today was OK too. Minus the heavy traffic congestion along the Federal highway, oh gosh, along the way I suppose! But I still reach at the office (temporarily actually, haha the Dewan is our office) sharp 0830hrs. Yea, I know it was real close but please give me a break during this opening. Today we get to know where we'll be based and the answer just announced.
Of all the 360 Civil Engineers (BTW, this is the largest enrollment so far the MOW has arranged) me plus two other colleagues from Sabah were posting to JKR Kesedar, Tanah Merah, Kelantan. I was like lost for seconds and I can't believe my eyes reading that, that I asked someone else to double-check it for me! "A'ah, betul la U dapat Kelantan" said the anonymous that re-check for me. Adui, I feel like a large stone fell on my head that I want to faint. Straight away went to meet my coursemate, and she also cannot believe it!! I couldn't express here how sad and frustrated I was at that moment. Can't even call my mom, sister and brother. In my mind I just thought that I need company and yess, Jessica again was my saviour. She came with her husband, Mark and I explained everything, crying that I really cannot go that far. When I texted my mom, she gave me the same expression, can't believe that I am actually about to go to Kelantan. Sooooooobbbbbbbbbbbbbb!!!
Met friends from Sabah, Sarawak and in the midst of too many people, there's this someone sent by an angel, a lovely person, she urged me to relocate and go negotiate with the top management in front. She companied me and she explained to me that if so happen I can find someone "suka sama suka" to relocate, there will be an opportunity. Initially of course I can't find anyone, because when I said I got Kelantan, even those in Peninsular itself was like, "Huh?".. That has really worsening my condition. I was so alone but then again, maybe the Holy Spirit was around, that lovely person again came and gosh, she brought someone, a guy who is a Kelantanian posted in Putrajaya wished to relocate to his hometown. I don't know how to thank her that she just not there when I wanted to see her back! GOSH! But I think she really hope that I can relocate so I with that guy went to meet the focal person! At first he was so not that entertaining then only he decided to meet again after lunch. Went to meet Jessica and I can't be myself but just being one very PITY girl.
Sharp 1400hrs, we went directly to 4th floor of JKR KL to continue the discussion. Of course not only us, but lots of couples there wanted to swap to each other! Once in my thought, the chances are slim but what I can do is just try and see what happens next! And then when our turn came, I just being honest, do the talking and the guy did help too.
God God God, how wonderful and merciful You are, tomorrow I am going back to JKR KL again to take my new pinform. And yeay, that guy will be serving to his state and I'll be in Putrajaya! Thank God, now I am speechless and got to go to sleep...
Sweet dreams everyone, remember God is always there! ALWAYS!
Dear readers, good evening. Here I am jotting another post and it's raining out there.
Yea people, you heard me, I just resigned from my ex-company on the 090109 and I've to mark that as one of my memorable days in life. Brief on my history employment there;
Joined the company on June 23rd '08 and I must say, I've learned a lot and have the chance to meet lots of people. Gone through happy and sad moments, go back to the office on Saturday to complete those important reports, stay back in the office (again to finish the reports), some paper jammed incidents (luckily Elly was there), unavoidable misunderstood situations, laugh hard while I can, cry badly when I think it's appropriate, came late because of the malfunctioning traffic lights (sigh), flat tires (you don't want to see my worry face), outstation, meetings, datelines, and many more thingsss. I have to say that I've been so attached to some very kind-hearted people there; Elly Joy, Dinah, Shirney, Fettie, Janet, Clarice, Sandra, Leona, Joy, Jalynn, the technicians, uhh, almost everyone! They are like my sisters and brothers!! I must say that even though it is only a short period, they've really mean a lot to me and I hope they won't easily forget me LL
So since I'm quitting there, I really didn't know that they actually has set up a gathering for me, something that never cross to mind since everyone is busy because of it is still midst of New Year and everyone is settling down with it. During 090109, around 1230++ they asked me to go downstairs to join them, OK, I said to myself; Fine, this is hurting and since it's the girls calling, I go, with Elly of course (this person, she's been hiding everything from the beginning, duh punya lah). We were like berlari-lari anak to the Mezzanine floor. Came to the door, it was locked and I was like puzzled for seconds. So we knocked hard on the door saying; Buka cepat ni pintu, kalau inda.. Then the door opened, and surprisingly there was like 30 persons inside, how bewildered I was and, Oh shoot, they set me up. OMG, I just can't stop tears falling down and I feel so silly! Duh..
So people, here are some of the snapshots and OK I may look childish crying, but that's just me..
Another angle; nun jauh d sana, rubber trees, umm not good enough!
She is the "LIFE & SOUL", everything!
The rebell, ha ha, sorry bang, you put the wrong finger, oopss!
The steady one and The determined one, ha ha
To do or not to do..
Yep, he's ready for the challenge..
They said it's like at Sunway Lagoon, LOL
Another angle, from the irrigation.. It's getting late and about to rain..
Ha ha ha, I've to admit it, this is so funny and he's so adorable! Gara-gara telupa bawa spare pants from home, borrow his uncle spare pants pula, ROFL!
Another cool piccies will be uploaded later on, patience yea :D
Hi hi, I was being so irresponsible for letting this blog of mine abandoned. Seriously, sort of hate it when some UNWANTED visitors are actually using this to check on my life! You suckersss, STAY AWAY from here!!!
Sighing on the previous pathetic experiences, that BEING is stubborn and you should stop acting like an IDIOT, a SICK person, because I am so pity on you, till the extent I can't explain it. This is life, someone hates you, so admit it, that person is no longer BLIND like before! If you're reading this, then please, I am so really begging you, go on with your life, forget the past, because you're just hurting yourself and I am so over it, GOSH!!!
Okay actually, it's not that I don't want to post any entries here, it's just that, sometimes it's just so dangerous, OK blame me now, for being silly, trapping me own in this blogging thingy, sigh sigh sigh.
Christmas has just ended and Jesus has just gone through His Baptism Mass. Within this 23++ years young of me, I never realized of this event, and that makes me the WORST Catholic I believe. And you know how did I figure this out? I attended the mass twice! And you see just how wonderful God plan is, He made me join the mass twice and there goes I gained these sort of knowledges :D
You might are wondering; Kenapa pula she attended the Mass twice??
1. We had this Sunset Mass in our chapel on Saturday and I was one of the readers, well minus that I actually prepared myself referring to the wrong reading's Year cycle, (we have this rotation of Year A, B and C cycling year by year), sighh, luckily it still went well.
2. Umm, OK, actually I was planning not to go but then again, my mom asked me to get up so that I can give a lifting hand to my sis-in-law for the after-mass canteen. (Seriously I was damn sleepy and I can feel "tanduk-tanduk" is growing slowly on my head and I even argue with mom while hugging my bear deliciously, gosh, what a PATHETIC me, "mau jalan sudah pun, masih mo gaduh"), then I guess some sort of angels knock hard on my head, I rose up and grab my towel and take shower. Since my sis-in-law is some sort of expert in making "kuih-muih" I can see my neighbours are queuing outside waiting to be entertain to buy some. And there goes my lifting hands, entertain them with my hair messing up, me in pyjama, Oh nevermind, so long they get what they want, I did the right thing, who cares!!! Then, 0740hrs, we started the church destination. Reached there, went to the available space and prepare myself to the whole process. WONDERFUL, everything was perfect just minus to the choir, occured some low note that made them like singing in blanket, nahh, you know what I mean! Went home and had this "gumpul-gumpul" with my family before hit RasaRia.
Went to the paddy field, "tabasan", with my nephews, all of us actually, LOL. They were like so enthusiast walking on the "sibor" I don't know how to explain this, aduii, and they defeated me, I actually can't really walk on "sibor", alamak!! And then we went to the irrigation, and I can't stop my nephews swimming and bath there, LOL, I guess that's my fault for lying with them that I actually used to "bermandi-manda" there when I was their age, ha ha, Christ sake, I never! Well I adore them for their braveness and determination, and yes, they are my NEPHEWS!! And you know that spirit came from where right? My gene, ROFL. Kidding! Then after had some injuries, a cut, ha ha, hey you should bare that right?! My mom was like really pissed with me and yea, again I was the one to be blame with, duii.. Will post some piccies later!
I've to click the "Publish" button now for some reasons, duii, but will be right back shortly. I seriously have lots of stuff to write on and piccies to be shared with.
*Gosh, sorry for the grammatical errors, peace* XOXO
Owh yeah, i would to just share this song that i find nice and been hearing to it a few times. It's a track from Jason Mraz entitled Life is Wonderful.. Hope everyone will have a wonderful and great day ahead!!
This is my first post since.. umMm, i've lost track of time.. Didn't mean to leave this blog unattended at the first place. Sometimes i dunno what to post coz lotsa things are mixing up inside my mind.. But i'm here now to ramble about things that i have in mind right now.. So to start things off, i'm actually on the verge of ending my studying days here in UNITEN.. WohoOo.. After all the years, at last managed to reach here. Just a few days to go actually, done with my oral presentation or viva, now just working on my thesis.. Will be back to KK next week!! Cant wait for that.. And after that, the job hunting season will begin, well actually it has already begun since the few months back but i'm going to follow up all the places that i've sent my application to..
It's just so quiet here right now, since uniten is on its semester break. Only those who are completing their thesis as well as the new foundation intake are in the campus. Having said that, i'm all alone here in my house right now.. House mate went back to his hometown but he'll be back next week. Nothing much i can do other than completing my thesis, sleep and eat.. Duh, should enjoy this moment as much as possible actually since once i leave here, no more relaxing or lazying around, working time!!! Really hope to get 1 when i'm back in my hometown. Got a few phone calls asking for interview, but have to delay them first since i'm still here in KL.
I guess i'll continue later.. Gonna be jotting down here as always as i can from now on. So feel free to check our blog and leave some comments at the shout box. Take care everyone..
