New Phone

Nokia E72 to replace my faithful, 5.5years old Nokia 6610 =)
Releasing in end of 3rd quarter. So, aiming to get somewhere in Nov...

Sut Cha-less City

JB

Yeap, i know it's dangerous to drive & snap photos, but as long as no accident, then i guess it should be fine =p

My tiny table + not-workable phone + super slow pc
*compare this to my kl table in the previous post*

Basically I'm station in QA area (lab + office), with spraying area on my right, a lot of testing equipment in front of my desk. Think I'm gonna die few years faster for smelling those fragrances everyday.
All colleagues (that I spoke to) are very nice to me. Informative & helpful... KL-ian said either they love or hate me... So, I guess they are loving me for now... Just hope I dont screw things up =D

Few interesting incident in JB

In coffee shop
Indo lady: Minum apa
Me: Sut cha (Ice tea)
Indo lady: *puzzled* Apa?
Me: Sut Cha!
Indo lady: *more confused* tak ada
Me: okay, Teh Ice
Colleague: You want CHINESE TEA, issit?
Me: eeerrrrr, yeah... So, they called it chinese tea here? hhhhmmmmmmm

In office (this doesnt apply to everyone)
Me: Why do we arrange it this way and not the other way. Isnt the other way more efficient?
Colleague: It's boss decision, we DONT question boss, okay?
Me: *sweat*

In car
Day 1
Colleague: Becareful when you are in JB. Ketua polis here also kena rompak

Day 2
Colleague: 2 years back got a lady kena snatch here, she went into coma and just died recently

Day 3
Aunty: I didnt sleep well last night. A lot of noises out there, I thought there's thief in the house...

Day 4
Uncle: See, the car is trying to follow us... If such thing happens to you, make sure you do this & that...

Day 5
Colleague's wife: Dont think you are very safe in a car, okay...

*sweat*
and I was in JB for 5 days only...
Is that city that dangerous?
Everyday I get reminder to be extra extra extra careful
Anyway, this is another pic I took when I was driving at Danga Bay =)

Pretty, isnt it?

cheers,

Finally

My work station in RB

Yeap,
Finally it's really the time to have the last part of my training, in JB factory.
This city is definitely not my favorite place to stay.
'Concerned' family & frenz have been constantly reminding me the danger of the ppl in this city.
"Not to stay out after 10pm",
"Dont go petrol station alone",
"Dont talk to stranger",
etc etc...
Gosh, this makes me even more nervous.

My top 3 concern would be *deng deng deng deng....*
1. JB lack of nice chinese food. Sometimes I just gotta to satisfy my need of filling my tummy with non halal food. You get what I mean? (10c, pls say yes)
2. I got no friends. Yeah, everyone telling me I'll make friends with factory ppl, but then... most of them are married uncles/ aunties who probably no time to entertain meeeeee...
3. Everywhere sounds so dangerous, no matter you are in restaurant, petrol station, on the road, cinema, shopping centre, you are highly exposed to robbers. Some say in JB, you have to at least got robbed once. *sweat* (I can imagine Zaf scolding me for jinxing myself)

I think the only consolation is...................... this city is only half an hour away from Spore (pls forget the currency part)
wait wait, maybe there's another, less traffic jamm,
oh yeah, also cheaper lunch (compare to eating at Tesco/ Curve/ Ikano/ Ikea)

See, 3 top most concern killed with 3 consolations.
Told you I'm a hopeful person... *This round hoping Jb is not that bad*

God bless me
for me who have been doing my job well as a devil queen - to be evil to a lot of ppl

Okay, have to sleep early... Tmr gotta wake up earlier to pack =D

cheers,

JB

anticipating...
hopefully everything is okay

Being Hopeful

One of my greatest weakness is being overly too hopeful,
even to things that probably will not happened
to ppl who are not worth it

or is it just becoz I'm too stubborn?
