MY PHOBIA


This is a fun subject, I’m sure all of us got our own Phobia. Herewith are some of me and my families phobias and why we got it.

Monkey.

I was born in the year of the Monkey. But do u know that I am SOooo.. afraid of all sorts of Monkey. Ha ha ha I know , monkeys seems adorable especially orangutan and chimpanzee. Well my phobia started when I was in Primary 3 . One day my mum and I visited my friend’s house and there was this one small monkey they kept as a pet at thier backyard. The monkey was so friendly and playful but i never go near it as i was initially a little afraid to it.

Our parents were very good friends and while our parents were talking , we were playing at the back yard and suddenly I felt there was a small hand holding my left hand and and the next thing I know something was biting my hand. It was a little painful but I was shock and things went so fast. Finally they took care of me and my hand was bandage and splash with this Indonesian hot oil. The wound heal off after a few months but the it didnt really heal my wound inside. I guess the monkey could smell my fear from the start thats why it bite me , or maybe its a crazy monkey sial punya monyet.

From that day onwards monkey terrifies me, and couldn’t overcome my fear until today.

Snake

I believe that I am not the only one who was so terrified with snakes. Snakes are so yucky with their oily body and they way it goes and crawl to your body, Ahhhhhhh im dead meat.

My mum was also a snake phobic tunggu jap... emm.... that makes my whole family. I remember when I as small , it was nearly Christmas or New year ke tak ingat dah and normally we would play cards before the new year as it is believed that the sound of money w brings prosperity to the whole family for the year ahead.

Then one night while we were playing cards ( berjudi ni hehe ) a snake drop from the ceiling to our bathroom floor in front of us. All of us was so shock and all of us run without looking back and I remember the snake goes to this one small hole. After that the whole family went to the kampong the very same night and my mother called some villagers ( lupa dah nama dia, but i remember he was a suluk guy ) to check and kill the snake. Finally he came but couldn’t find the snake anymore. We didn’t slept that night and everybody was so terrified. My mum even splash kerosene just to make sure the snake crawl away.

Kitten.

I just couldn’t relate to this,but my mum is so afraid of kittens until as far as I can remember. I remember we use to have this 3 colored cat which believed to bring good luck and one day our cat got pregnant by our neighbors cat ( sial punya kuching pandai dia cari makan kat luar kan) . Then one morning, while we were still sleeping my mum shouted and shouted hysteria …. All of us jump up of fear for maybe it’s a snake and the next thing saw was our mum on the top of the table shouting, and below were some new kittens still shivering and crawling.

My mother was in hysteria and ask us to put all the kittens away in our barn and make sure its away from her. First I thought she was just joking but looking of her fear ahd shiver I realize that my mum really was afraid of kitten. So from that moment onwards, we don’t have kittens at home, well we do have cats but only adult cats. Funny kan. Guess what now all my nephew and nieces dispise cats... do you think its heriditary.

Feathers

I remember my course mate Geeya, now married with 2 children was so afraid anything with feathers. I just couldn’t comprehend but according to her , the sound and the site of feathers made her freak out. Another spooky phobia.

So what are your phobias? I guess somehow we can overcome our phobias, if we really face it but no matter what I rather be phobic my whole life than have to hold a snake.
Guess what, this is the 3rd entry i did today. Banyak pulak things that i want to tell lately.
Last Friday we had a visit from lembaga Lada Malaysia Cawangan Sibu, and we as the Agriculture Office have to attend because in the letter of invitation noted that it was WAJIB. A friend of mine told me that the word Wajid was used to widely in our daily lives , that it doesn't meant that much already.
Normally WAJIB means something that one have to do , and if not done, mean its against God rule ( Berdosa / sin ) for example Having to pray 5 times a day ( althought some peps don't matilah fadzilah lariiiiiiii ) and fast for 30 days in the month of Ramadan. But it terms of attendance one cannot impose WAJIB because according to her, if she cannot or didn't come for that particular meeting does that means that its DOSA (sin)
The meeting was schedule at 8.30 but the atenary started at 9.00 am. what the F... k man. You ask me to hang around the meeting room for additional 30 minutes doing nothing. The letter was subjected to all head of department and also all to the Associate Professor, but funny thing was the heading for the letter is Lawatan sambil Belajar.
When the people from the Jabatan Lada Malaysia comes, and they introduce themself to us, i notice that there was no head of department in thier team. The actual purpose of the team was to break the ice between thier Department and our University but our new Administrative Office gave us an indication that we are going to discuss on our calloboration but when asked pertaining to the pepper subject they answer that they know nothing about it. Boleh ke, we working in the sector for a few years gave a rediculous answer of " we know nothing about this ". Well i pun tidak boleh salahkan diorang sebab initially thier purpose if just to go around the campus for lawatan sambil belajar only but our pegawai Diplomat ini the Campus made it in such a way that they came to us to discuss about calloboration. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz siapa punya salah ni. This must been a failure of communication between them and our administrative officer.
Gosh, i must admit that that was among one of the most unproductive days of my life. I felt that i could have done more things but hasten to do it in order to attent for the meeting. Everyone was a little pist off but eveyone kept quiet.
Oii cik adik oii, next time if you want to call for meeting, think twice before writting the invitation officer.

To all employees.. good laugh

To all Employees:

Effective August 2007

Dress Code

1. It is advised that you come to work dressed according to your salary. If we see you wearing Prada shoes and carrying a Gucci bag, we assume you are doing well financially and therefore do not need a pay raise.

2. If you dress poorly, you need to learn to manage your money better, so that you may buy nicer clothes, and therefore you do not need a pay raise.

3. If you dress just right, you are right where you need to be and therefore you do not need a pay raise.

Sick Days We will no longer accept a doctor's certificate as proof of sickness. If you are able to go to the doctor, you are able to come to work.
Holiday Days Each employee will receive 104 personal days a year - Saturday & Sunday. Compassionate Leave This is no excuse for missing work. There is nothing you can do for dead friends, relatives or co-workers.

Every effort should be made to have non-employees attend to the arrangements. In rare cases where employee involvement is necessary, the funeral should be scheduled in the late afternoon. We will be glad to allow you to work through your lunch hour and subsequently leave 1 hour early.

Toilet Use

1. Entirely too much time is being spent in the toilet. There is now a strict 3-minute time limit in the cubicles.

2. At the end of three minutes, an alarm will sound, the toilet paper roll will retract, the cubicle door will open, and your picture will be taken.

3. After your second offence, your picture will be posted on the company notice board under the "Chronic Offenders" category.

4. Anyone caught smiling in the picture will be sanctioned under the company's mental health policy.

Lunch Break

1. Skinny people get 30 minutes for lunch, as they need to eat more so that they can look healthy.

2. Normal size people get 15 minutes for lunch to get a balanced meal to maintain their average figure.

3. Chubby people get 5 minutes for lunch, because that's all the time needed to drink a Slim-Fast. ( matilah orang gemuks lariiiiiiiiiii...)
