Application for Master - Umur dah lanjut

Salam semua,

Setelah menganggurkan diri selepas hampir setahun duduk di rumah aku mengambil inisiatif untuk memajukan diri sendiri.. Daripada duduk rumah otak tak berkembang kan.. Umo tak la lanjut sangat.. Baru 29 tahun..

Masih belum dikurniakan zuriat. Aku redha. Tapi dalam masa yang sama usaha dan tawakal masih dilakukan tanpa henti.

Master if Science (Engineering Business Management) adalah course yang aku minat dari UTM Tun Razak. KL area. Full time. Rasa boleh commit dengan full time sebab aku memang tak de kerja pon kat rumah. Ikutkan hati minda nak ambil Master of Engineering - Materials Engineering. Tapi apa kan daya sang suami kata better amikk Business gak.. Kot2 boleh mintak keje kat admin..

Semoga permohonan aku diterima dan diredhai Allah S.W.T.. InsyAllah aku akan beri yang terbaik.

Apply kerja? I did. Dan aku juga telah menghadiri beberapa interview. Contractor mostly. Dan mereka memberikan alasan yang sama iaitu aku tak cukup pengalaman dan training. Baiklah.

Mungkin juga Tuhan duga aku dengan penyakit paru-paru ni supaya aku sedar akan kewujudan-Nya.
Semoga betul la kata orang makin Allah sayang makin diuji la umatnya..

Berbalik dengan isu further study. Untuk pembayaran yuran mungkin aku akan minta jasa baik pengeluaran KWSP aku..

Nak harapkan laki aku tak boleh la.. Dia pon bayar rumah guna duit KWSP. Semoga laki aku tabah la kalau aku berjaya ambik Master ni..

Tengah mencari idea apa yng perlu dilakukan hari ini. Selain tukar pampers arnab.. *Sigh*

I should google what Stay-At-Home-Wife daily programmes..

Trip ke Ho Chi Minh 2015

Salam.

Trip ke Ho Chi Minh minggu lepas bersama sang suami adalah ringkas tapi mencabar minda dan fizikal.

Kami berlepas ke Ho Chi Minh 17 April 2015 pada jam 7.40pm dan sampai jam 8.40 pm waktu tmpatan Vietnam. Take note ye waktu Vietnam lambat sejam dari Malaysia. Biasa nya henpon automatic akan update jam kat henpon tu.. Kalau korang on location service kt fon la..

Money changer – Aku tuka duit Vietnam Dong (VD) 2 juta VD yang mana sama dengan RM 354. Time tu RM1 = 0.177 VD. Duit USD aku tuka gak sebab aku banyak bc blog kalau nak g trip Mekong ke Chi chi Tunnel ke senang nak guna USD. Time tu 1 USD = RM3.7. Mahal jugak. So aku tuka je la 30USD.

Sampai je epot and cop passport semua, kami g cari teksi Vinasun. Ramai sangat suggest guna teksi Vinasun tu. Kat mana? Keluar epot terus jalan straigt ke bahagian teksi. Kalau nak naik bas belah kanan luar airport. Untuk Vinasun, ade abang pakai baju hijau Emerald. Nanti ade teksi Vinasun sampai, dia akan bagi Information Card. Dalam tu ade tulis nombor taxi, tarikh dan destinasi.

Nasib je la sebelum naik teksi kami g cari air mineral dulu. Dapat la pecah duit. Tuka duit dong kt money changer semua 100 ribu VD je.. Tak de kecik..

Total harga teksi 130K dong. Pastu sampai hotel dia bagi 1 resit putih. Mcm caj hotel plak.. Dia caj 10K dong. kteorg byr je la.. Sampau pn da malam sgt. Malas nak pk.. Lgpun 10K dong tu sm mcm RM1.77? Halal je la kan..

Nak senang convert dong ke RM : (VD/1000) x 0.177.. Biasa kat sana tak sebut ribu dong tu.. Mcm harga teksi 130K dong.. Dorang sebut 130 je.. ribu blkang pandai2 la..

Converter table pon aku sediakan gak.. Senang la nak compare.. Tak nak la rugi and kena tipu plak..

Malam tu sampai epot terus tido la… Penat giler kot.. Kami stay kat Hotel Ha Hien. Tak jauh dari Ben Thant area. Jalan 3 minit da sampai. Hehe.. Hotel ni booking through Air Asia Go. Yang mana harga tiket flight sekali dengan harga hotel.. Before pilih hotel boleh la check google map.. Cari dekat dengan tempat bejalan..

Keesokan hari nya. Pagi2 jam 8 da turun nak g breakfast hotel konon nya. Jumpa makcik and pakcik Malaysia kat lobby. Dorang suh makan benda yang konfiden halal je la.. So 3 ari aku kat hotel tu, setiap pagi aku makan pisang dan roti bakar je.. Nangis teringat nasi kerabu. Haha

Sihat sangat breakfast kami. Pisang + Telur masin. 

Pas breakfast ala kadar kteorg naik bilik dan sedia nak g serang Ben Thant. Sebutan dia ban-thang? Pape la..

Bagi aku yang first time datang situ memang blur sikit. Pasar Ben Thant ni tempat orang jual secara sggresive. Tarik tangan sokmo. Melalui internet gak kami dapat info kedai mana yang jual kain murah. Kedai no 468. Akak jual tu macam kat bawah ni la..

Gamba di rotate tak jadi plak.. Erm.. 

First day jalan dah abis RM600.. Betul2 tak sedar pon duit abis dengan cepat. Sebab semua murah.. Kain cotton sepasang RM20. Cotton English mahal sikit. RM25 sepasang. Ade lg yang mahal. Paling mahal aku dengar RM50/sepasang. Tapi kain dia memang lawa habis..

Lepas penat shopping lapar plak perut. Lunch kat Restoran Seri Saigon Penang. Boleh la Google Map kan kedai tu.. Aku tolong google map. Bila tgk sendiri asyik sesat je.. Nasib laki aku terror sikit bab2 map nih..

Pegi negara orang pn tak blh tinggal nasi.. Ayam madu diorang ni memang berhantu.. Balik Malaysia aku terbayang2 lagi kelazatan dan kerangupan dia.. Sebab nak jimat amik ayam and kangkung belacan je.. Range harga makan kami berdua RM50 - RM80 sekali makan,. 

Lepas tu pegi plak Taka Plaza. Dengar2 banyak barang best kat situ. Hurm.. Tak tau la..Macam barang bundle pun ada.. Kat tingkat atas je la ok sikit barang dia.. Laki aku dapat la rembat 2 helai baju Ferrari Puma and aku dapat la blazer sequine ala2 Siti Nurhaliza tu. Haha

Bagi aku tak pergi pun tak pe.. Nak cari barang baby and baju bersenam boleh la situ. Banyak gak jaket sejuk situ..

Maybe sebab saiz aku tak banyak situ,, Tau2 la orang Vietnam kan kecik molek je.. Yang besar gajah memang tak payah cari baju kat situ la.. Haha

Kalau minat beg kulit lembu warna warni boleh la jalan tepi Taka Plaza tu.. Ade banyak kedai menarik gak.

Lepas da penat pusing2 jalan2, kteorg balik hotel and tido.. Haha

Malam tu kteorg pegi pasar malam depan Ben Thant. Kalau nak makan murah pegi la Malaysia Street. Lorong depan Ben That gak.. Landmark: Hotel Pink Saigon 2. Banyak kedai makan halal situ. Tudung Neelofa dan seluar Neelofa dijual murah giler. Memang copy cat habis..

Malam tu makan kat Kampung Melayu Restaurant. Owner kedai sama dengan owner kedai Restoran Seri Penang tadi.. 

Kali ni amik set Ayam Kari plak.. Ade sayur, sup ayam, ayam kari and nasi 2..

Lepas makan haruslah cuci mata kat Pasar Malam. Kami beli lugage baru sebab memang dah tau balik nanti beg mesti tak muat. Beg paling besar kami dapat RM120. Yang mana tak mungkin dapat harga tu kat Malaysia la.. 

Ramai gak jumpa orang Malaysia.. Dari Johor ade, Sabah, Sarawak ade.. Hehe.. Malaysian people memang suka shopping heh.. Including me laa...

Tapi berhati2 la kalau da tawar gile2 tu baik beli terus.. Sebab dorang akan marah gila kalau kita tawar serius tiba2 cakap tak nak.. Memang abis kena marah tu.. Kalau rasa nak beli baru tawar.. Kalau tak nak tak yah tanya langsung..

Balik hotel terus tido la makcik...

Hari ke-3 at Ho Chi Minh..

Disebabkan kerakusan membeli barang dan duit Malaysia pon da abis.. Nak jalan pon tak selesa. Kad Maybank tak activate langsung.. So, hubby pon beli sim kad Vietnam. Kol Maybank untuk activate kan Maybank Card. Atm kad la... Orang Maybank kata ade ATM Maybank kat Ho Chi Minh area.. Sekali di google map kan wow.. Memang ade... Laki aku cakap dekat je.. Walking distance.. Berpeluh gak ketiak bejalan weh... Sabo je la..

Korang boleh jumpa ATM Maybank kat Sun Wah Tower.. Alamat seperti dibawah..

Dah boleh keluarkan duit tu keuarkan la semaximum yang boleh.. Haha

Lepas withdraw duit, kteorg pegi plak Bin Thay Market.. Aku sebut Bin-Tey.. Rupanya sebutan nya Ben-Taiiii...

Naik teksi je..Sebab jauh sangat.. Nak naik bas pon boleh.. Stesyen bas tak jauh dari roundabout depan Ben Thant tu.. Naik bas no 01..Lagi senang kalau korang rasa tak konfiden nak sebut tunjuk je nama tempat tu and address sekali.. Kang ke mana plak driver tu bawa...

Bin Thay Market ni lagi dasyat dia punya barang.. Ade pinggan mangkuk, kain prada lace ni alahai murah sangat.. Ade yang jual borong.. Ade yang boleh jual meter.. Topi keledar, topi pantai banyak gila.. Mask bermacam rupa pun ada..

Bahagian atas jual tuala, barang baby and t-shirt.. Banyak sangat sampai tak terbeli.. Kalau korang memang plan nk memborong better pegi la Bin Thay ni.. Kalau setakat nak bli sikit2 beli kat Ben Thant je la..

Malam nya plak kteorg pegi jauh sikit pasar malam. Jumpa Kak Lina.. Dia ni kira femes la di kalangan orang Malaysia.. Ramai orang beli seluar jeans kat dia.. Aku ngan laki aku rembat la sorang 2 helai seluar jeans. 2 helai seluar slack.. Kain dia macam ori gak.. Ikut masing2 punya taste la kan.. 

Keesokan ari nya kteorg tak pegi mana sangat sebab flight balik Malaysia tengahri..

So packing2 je la.. Breakfast kat hotel macam biasa.. 

Overall, pegi Ho Chi Minh tak payah berhari-hari sangat.. Bagi aku kalau memang niat nk borong kain, sehari 2 je pun da cukup.. Betul.. Sebab nya : 1) Makan kat situ mahal. Buat yang memang perut nasi la.. Nak cari yang halal la.. 2) Tempat menarik seperti Sg Mekong dia mcm bosan jek.. Bg aku la.. 3) Bosan. Haha

So, nak bisnes kain pegi la Ho Chi Minh.. Nak jenjalan pegi la tempat lain.. Tu je coretan aku untuk Ho Chi Minh..

Bye!

Tasty life - Japan Trip Cancel

Salam.

I'm writing this entry live from Kia Service Kota Damasara. Oh well, I knew that I should be in Japan now. Tapi tu lah pepatah mengatakan; Kita merancang, Tuhan menentukan.

A lot of preparation were ready for our trip to Japan tapi tu lah..

*Sigh*

Kami plan untuk berpindah rumah baru before pegi Japan. Tapi last2 ape yang di plan tak semua terjadi. Contractor buat hal. Our house renovation dragging too long. And we decided to settle the house renovation issue first..

Mula2 planning nak extend seminggu je trip ke Japan. So we deal with Optiontown to extend the flight. Very convenience service for international changing dates and time flight..Tau2 lepas extend flight,  seminggu baru umah settle. And kiteorg pun decided lupakan je la trip ke Japan. InsyAllah ade rezeki lain hari kami pergi..

*Nangis*

Tak sayang ke dengan tiket mahal2 beli? Erm.. Sape kata tak sayang.. bukan beratus harga tiket tu.. Beribu riban..Waaaaaaaaaaa

Tapi lagi sayang nak tinggalkan umah yang kusut masai dan terbengkalai plus duit pun da abis kat umah..

Waaaaaaaaaaaa

Serius terkilan. We plan for a year for this trip. But end up with frustration.

Pahit untuk di telan. Tapi mudah2 an Allah akan balas frustration kami dengan benda lain.. Waaaaa

Now we are so happy with our perfect new house. Because of we cancelled our trip to Japan, we substitute the budget to Japan with home appliances. What a happy wife I am.. Haha

InsyAllah kami akan ke oversea jugak nanti. Lepas everything settle..

Amin..

Life can be challenging. Can be frustrated. But we believe only patient and trust to Allah can give reward to ourselves.

Pray for our happiness please.. Haha

Pesanan untuk Saimin - Lawak menghiburkan

Salam semua.

Seperti yang aku dah share kat FB, Video 'Pesanan Untuk Saimin' ni betul2 menghiburkan hati aku yang gundah gelana.

Kalau tension boleh dengar conversation antara penyampai Radio dan pemanggil. Aku tak tau benda ni real ke tak. Tapi memang lawak..

Conversation ni dalam bahasa Sabah. Aku of course la faham kan.. Kalau korang tak faham tanya la member2 yang boleh faham..

Pembukaan 2015 yang menghiburkan. Buat aku lupa dengan kesunyian duduk di rumah. Stress memikirkan rumah baru tak abis2 renovate lagi..

Semoga korang terhibur. Haha

Cafe Review: Makan di Chop d'Stop Cafe

Salam semua,

Teringin nak kongsi pengalaman makan kat 1 cafe jual western food di Bazaar Rakyat Seri Kembangan.

Lokasi adalah bersebelahan dengan Giant Seri Kembangan. Sekeliling kawasan tu adalah perumahan. Ade bangunan 2 tingkat warna kuning kalau tak silap. Parking banyak. Kedai tak berapa banyak buka kalau malam..

Husband aku memang dah lama sebut western food kat kedai sini famous, sedap kata nya. So, malam tu aku beralah la.. Follow je la.. Tapi aku tak rasa nak makan pon. Nak minum je..

Masa sampai tu memang ramai orang. Time tu kol 8.30pm kot.. Malam minggu kan.. So ramai la lepak situ..

Husband aku order la Chicken Grill Cheesy. RM14 kot harga dia..Aku nak minum je so order la Apple Juice Jumbo. Gelas besar. Harga pon biasa je.. Tak murah, tak mahal..

Pak Cik yang amik order tu bgtau la siap2 western lambat siap ni.. So kteorg order la Mushroom Soup Set. Siap ade garlic bread lg.. Ingatkan kalau lambat sangat grill tu blh la mkn mushrom soup set tu dulu..

Air jus apple sampai setengah jam kemudian..Tunggu punya tunggu sampai jam 9.30pm tak dapat2 lagi makanan.. Aku tengok meja2 sebelah yang sampai sebelum kteorg ni pon tak dapat2 lagi..

Ngam plak kami duduk depan kedai tu je. Tengok2 brader (bos dia kot) tu masak sorang je. Dia la rebus jagung. Dia la goreng fries, Dia la grill chicken n beef.. Mana lah tak lambat kan??

Dah tunggu sejam dah panas je bontot.. Aku siap abis baca paper star yang tebal tu. Semua news aku baca. Makanan tak sampai2 lagi..

Pastu ade satu meja ni nak blah da.. Ngam2 mknan dorang baru siap. Pastu dorang cakap la x jadi nak mkn sebab lambat sangat. Yg brader tukang masak ni tak boleh terima orang cancel order. Habis dia pekik, jerit mamat yg anta makanan tu. Suh customer tu makan jugak western dorng tu.. Last2 customer tu tapau je.. Yelah kalau family beranak pinak ade budak kecik.. Dah hening2 malam xkan nk tunggu lama lagi.. Budak nak tido kot..

Jam 10pm sampai la makanan kteorg. Pastu yg sampai Chicken Grill Cheesy tu je.. Mushroom Soup Set da abis dia cakap.. Aku time tu dah malas nak gaduh.. Bateri da kong sebab lemau menunggu..

Husband aku da bising da. Dia kata kalau xde mushroom set tuka dengan beef grill steak. Benda da abis nape tak kabo awal kan?? Dia cakap buat masa sekarang kalau nak tambah dan cepat siap ade Chicken Grill Cheesy tu je.. Aku cakap la xnk makan pape.. (-_-)

Laki berbaju hitam tu la brader masak.. Dia la yg rebus sayur jugak.. Slow motion je dia masak.. Tapi temper dia mengalahkan Hulk. Haha

Kami makan. Rasa biasa je. Biasa sebab ape? Sebab makan hati lagi banyak. Marah, penat, ngantuk, annoyed, dan sebagainya.

Aku menulis bukan sebab nak menjatuhkan kedai ni. Tapi untuk pengajaran semua orang. Konsep kedai ni adalah, kalau tak sanggup menunggu, jangan datang. That's it.. Actually kedai sebelah2 ade gak jual makanan biasa. Yang aku komplen banyak untuk bahagian western je..

Kalau nak menjual biar seikhlas yang boleh. Kalau tak boleh percaya dengan orang lain buat western food, jangan buka kedai. At least bia la orang lain tolong rebus jagung, rebus sayur, goreng fries. Kalau ade cerita sebalik masak-masak ni aku xnk tau. Sebab customer datang untuk makan dan kalau service dan makanan ok, dorang pasti datang lagi.. Kalau situasi kedai macam ni, sekali datang je bawa kenangan pahit dan buruk, xkan ade orang datang lagi dah..

Bukan kami je yang panas bontot malam tu.. Ramai.. Kalau macam ni la.. Aku lagi rela bayar service tax KLCC 16% asalkan dapat makan dengan senang hati dan tak de kontroversi.. At least tak yah menunggu 2 jam!

Like people always said. Melayu mudah lupa. Melayu tak kan maju kalau tak berani move forward. Indeed! I was like.. Hurmm? Wake up la.. You think your cafe was famous enough to cater the whole residents of Seri Kembangan? Not yet until you change your mind set!

Pissed off, that is the most terrible cafe I ever met.

So readers, kalau ade kedai western food sedap yang laen, please let me know ok..

Cergas Murni Interview Sucks!

Salam.

I told you guys that I have an interview yesterday.

Well. I didn't remember when I applied that job. What can I say is Alhamdulillah. Praise to Allah.

Why? Did I get the job? No.. I don't think so. Then, why I say Alhamdulillah instead?

Because I am 100% sure I won't get that job. Because of these:

1. The place is very very far away from my house. 

Seriously? I never been that area before. Klang. Yes. I've been Klang before. But not at Teluk Pulai area. Seriously? That site area was so hideous. I have to pay 5 to 6 times toll to reached there. So, when I found that site, which clearly written Keller sign board at blue hoarding but the clerk that I call she kept saying blue cabin, blue cabin.. What??

They really didn't know how to give correct instruction to other people. I kept lost and lost. And when I reached there I enter the Chinese Temple instead. Battle with few dogs who kept chasing me. Dang!

So, Alhamdulillah if I didn't get that job. Seriously I don't want to drive 50km per way everyday!

2. Psycho Interviewer

Have you met a psycho interviewer before? Nope. Yesterday was my first time. Seriously. The interview was supposely start at 3.30 pm by Dato' title person. Well I don't want to mention his name here. Scared it's going to be a bad luck.  The interview was start on 4pm. Huhh? Where is your punctuality?

I thought Dato' or Project Director will not interfere with interviewing new employees. Well, I guess this kind of important person will sit in the office and only receive report from Project Manager. Am I right?? That is my experienced before in my previous Mega Project! So, this Dato' is the one who visiting site (maybe he's staying at the site whole time?) and he's the one who interview people. Can you imagine how serabut his mind?

So, back to my interview. I managed to end my interview session in 2 minutes time. 2 minutes!

Him: What's your name.

Me: KXXXXX.

Him: Where your from.

Me: Sarawak

Him: Why not working at Sarawak?

Him: Why not working at Sarawak. Why working here.

Me: I prefer here. Working here since after graduation

Him: So why you want to work here. you hv better job before.

Me: I resigned recently due to health issue.

Him: What health issue? (With wide open eyes)

Me: I admitted 2 times due to lung infection. But I rest 3 months and now better health. (Ayat tunggang langgang sebab dia cakap tak tengok aku dan dia tunjuk muka tak minat langsung)

Him: You cannot work here. Here also dusty bla bla bla. If you working here after 2 days you will get MC. You are not qualified to work here. Thanks for coming. Have a nice day

That is how he end the interview session. Pathetic and full with negativity.

He's the doer. He will do everything from start to end. He will not trust everybody. He will sack you anytime he want. He's too sensitive to work at site construction. He need a P.A but he think he's not.

I just met him. But I can read him very fast. Shame on you Dato'.

3. Not a work friendly area

While waiting for Dato' to come, I saw attendance book. I was like.. Hurmm.. And then when I walk in to the cabin there's a clerk with sour face. I was like. Hurmm Am I going to see these faces everyday? But it was first impression though. I cannot judge simply like that. Ok.. Positive!

What I'm trying to mention here is. An engineer who come work early because of attendance book is not professional enough to see with. Engineer will work in flexible time. They might be working late. And they can't be expected to come early as clerk. But hey.. What ever.

Alhamdulillah I didn't get that job.

Conclusion is I have nightmare interview with Cergas Murni. My first bad impression with that company since I goggled them and found few bad news report regarding Jambatan Pulau Pinang runtuh. I don't know if the news true or false. But hurmm..

Dear Cergas Murni, find someone else that qualified and have time to interview people. I am not desperate to get that job. I just want to know what this company can offer me because I know I can do a very good job. Trust me. I just let Dato' push me down yesterday because I am pity of him. I'm scared if I answered him a lot more than he talk, he will get heart attack.

I have right to say anything I want here. Somebody need to get up and speak out loud. Dato' doesn't mean he's a God of everything. He's a human being. So every human being makes mistake. I forgive him and please change. Sit in the office and let subordinate work their own job!

The more you try to protect, the more people holding a grudge, the more your project failure.

Bye
