peugot 407

i just got a new car a few days ago. it’s a mean machine, i’m still testing the power. it gives a new meaning to driving. pure pleasure.

you see, i’m in certain position in my company where my partners don’t think that i’m fit to drive a waja any londer. waja is fine with me. but they don’t think so. so that’s why now i’m driving a peugot 407. but you won’t hear complaining anytime soon.

it is a nice cat but still, everytime that i’m driving it, i don’t feel that i’m entitled to it. still got to settle selling my waja. anyone looking to own a battered premium waja? it’s not that bad. but after a few years me driving it, there are to be some kinks to it.

even told my wife that i still feel funny driving it, but she said that i’m entitled to it.

i still don’t know how am i going to bring it home to show to our parents. both mine and my wife. they would have mixed feelings to it. even when we meet our friends, we are not showing it to them. it’s not like we are financially independence, so owning that car still doesn’t seem right. hmmm…

hope that everything is well with it. all well’s that ends well.

Tender

no, it’s not loving tender or ‘soft and tender’. this is the tender that we need to prepare. a lot of things/documents need to be prepared and it all takes a lot of thinking and preparation. need a lot of time as well. to do this, i would need a good support from supplier, staff and the management. especially the staff. if you got good help, it’s all okay.

but the help that I got is still wanting. i can’t really let it go. I would like to be able to be only monitoring the tender. but still i have to make sure that everything is okay. and most of the time, i would be doing the work myself. arghh, it’s all troubling sometimes.

there’s 3 tenders that me and my team are preparing. for UIA, UniKL and JKR. The JKR tender is about Shooting Range. this is a new thing for me because i usually do IT tenders only. luckily i managed to find a supplier that can do most of the proposal and come up with an almost complete solutions. if not, i would have to cancel the tender.

my right hand man has gone back. usually with tender preparation, we would need all the help that we can get, and spend a lot of time. i don’t know why he thinks that he can go home early. well, not early. it is after all, after work. but i can’t remember a time when i got back home early. it’s usually at night that we would gone home. tired and just in the mood to relax. i try to remember the saying ‘your work is not your life’. but in this kind of world that we’re living in, it is hard to do so.

the wife is not feeling well. so i wish that i can spend more time with her. especially that she’s going outstation for the weekend. she hasn’t feeling well for more than a week now. ever since we clean the house at Klang. don’t know what happened. me being stronger, just has the fever for 3 days, but she went on for more than a week.

yesterday, we went to our friend’s house and had dinner at an Iranian restaurant. Taktaz. we like to go there because they have Halal beer around. gives me the feeling that i’m drinking beer. friends that i drank it with told me that it really is taste like the real thing. they drank back on the jahiliah days… he he he. but i like to have them around. yesterday was a holiday (Thaipusam) so I can spend time with them. just chilling out, make jokes,discuss life and such. it is a nice feeling to be with them. they are the best buddies. those that i can call my friends at the moment.

i’m still feeling tired at the moment. listless. don’t have much energy. i know that i have a lot to do. need the energy but really can’t muster it. i used to try Berroca a supplement that would give energy boost, but haven’t been using it for a while. i should try and get it back. but when i tried it the last time, it doesn’t really work.

election might be around the corner. but i couldn’t care less. wonder whether my mother in law would be in it this time. if she does, then it would be interesting.

just finished reading the tafsir al azhar juzuk 30. i’m in the mood to really understand the quran. this is seasonal. sometimes, i’d be willing to spend time to read the tafsir, and sometimes not. so, since i’m in the mood, i would try to do so.

adik sharlinie masih lagi tidak dijumpai. wonder where is. wonder whether she still alive. wherever she is, i hope that Allah is taking care of her. may she be brought back to her parents, not like what happened to Nurin Jazlin.

Working

Still not feeling well. but had to go to office because there’s so much work to be done. really not feeling up to it. but what to do?

when you’re not feeling well, i guess your thinking capacity is limited. you’re not yourself. you wish that you’re somewhere else. and the people around don’t know that you’re not well. to them, you seem okay? so it’s okay for them to dump their work on you, treat you like normal, etc etc.

Viral Fever

i’m staying at home today. got MC because i have the fever. been feeling since yesterday but i went to work because there was an important delivery to customer yesterday. this is the first time that they are buying from us. and i hope that everything goes well. so far, so good.

went to clinic after work yesterday. i’m having diorrehea and i’m afraid that this would be a problem. i’ve eaten almost nothing since yesterday because don’t feel like eating and it will go straight out if i do.

the doctor that i saw is nice ans spent considerable time explaining what i’m experiencing. my wife said it’s the difference a good doctor and a bad one.

yeah, i really hate when i see a doctor and they don’t have a good bedside manner. if i can’t help it, i would go to another doctor because of his treatment. it’s sometimes the way they greet us, the way they responded to our questions and their general wellbeing.

rumah klang

today me and wife spent time in Klang to tidy up the house. there’s only two of his brother’s that stay there now, but being guys, the house is in shambles. we used to live there a few years ago and it’s now decrepid. boys will always be boys.

but if given the option of whether i want to have a son or a daughter, i’m in a stage where i want to have a son rather than a daughter.

a daughter is more helpful, they are nicer than the boys. they can help cook, they can help cleaning up, and they are generally more endearing to the parents. they talk nicer, they will be around more.

but it would harder to take care of them.

as a muslim, there are things that a lady must take take. she has to wear tudung, she has to take care of her appearances. she is not like a man who can simply go out and roam about. this does not mean that a woman in islam cannot do all these. but just that they have to take care more. there are a lot a lot of bad men out there. just waiting to do harm and damages. i would have a rather peace of mind if my progeny is a male.
