Before i moved to KL, Alot of my friends in Bintulu said that those people who got transfer to Kl soon forget and drifted them self from them once they moved to KL without any reasons, when ever they asked to meet they would have all this reasons not to meet.
It had me thinking..... and hard. Then when i came here, with all the hustle and bustle on KL, soon i realise that maybe it was not their choice.
I guess it boils down to MONEY. Yelah how much do u earn with as a Government Officerkan. With all the commitments , the house, the car, the loan, the student loan some other means, one barely makes end meet.
Then, just imagine i heard from my cousin who is working down in Putrajaya now, he said that he got people in KK coming almost 3 times a week, and he have to pick up from the airport and drive them to thier destination and back to the airport again. Fuh.. just imagine with a MYV it took u around RM 50.00 to the airprt and back at not including going round sh oping.
I know its not much for one person but just imagine if u have to pick up around 3-4 person per week, how much would it cost ya. Pengsan jugak kan, but i guess it really never occur to those people yang datang sebab they only comes once in a blue moon and they have an advance budget for it. No wonderlah orang kat kl ni susah kan. Not only they have to jaga kawan lagi, have to jaga pocket lagi, but then again pocket kita ni siapa yang tau kan.
I know when i was in Bintulu, things were okay coz u hardly spend money and i got to go to KL once a while and miri once a month, tapi kan in KL each road u take .. the toll is just around the corner and one spend almost 10-20 ringgit for toll alone, that is not including ur petrol and parking fee.
So my guess is , its not the people in KL changes kawan kawan, but its the economy pressure.
I remember when i first came here, my friends who came here earlier deserted me when i needed them the most, ada je alasan diorang. I was dissapointed and angry with them. Then my sister told me, maybe they got their reasons that u might not know. Maybe its family problems or maybe its financial problems u wouldn't know, but at that time i was so angry ... i just shut down. Now.... looking back and seing the present i realise how true she was. I guess other people will never know how much problem we have personally, but then again who can read minds kan.

Life at 40.. Que sera sera
A friend of mine called me up today expressing about his life, how time goes by very fast and that there is no turning back.
All i could tell him is that , you gonna have to be true to urself and ask urself what do u want in life, then the riddles will be answered. At the age of 40, sometimes i don't even know what i want and how to get it ahaks. Last night talking to diding gives me something to ponder very deeply, she told me a friend of her went overseas to pursue her studies in Law and when she came back work for a months , she got married and become a full time house wife.
So instead helping her family financially and let her parents retire, the parents have continue thier normal duties selling vege at the flee market. KESIAN JUGAK KAN. So as diding said ,.. so u see , there is no guarantee for the future.
Kadang tu kan, scary jugak to think what will my future lies....... well que sera sera

I'm 28
I bet all of u we're wondering, apo kono si Allan ni .. saying that he is 28.
Well... yesterday, i was involve with a visit from Sekolah Menengah CHAAh Johor Baharu consisting of 36 lower Art stream student and 8 other teachers. The Vice Dean of Student affairs insisted that i handle it myself ( whats on ur mind dude... i am so new in the faculty .. and yet. aku jugak di suruh.
Anyway, they came at 3pm from UPM Head Office str8 to our faculty. When they arrive we greeted them and str8 go to the seminar room for some breifings ( funny coz normally in Bintulu the Admin Officer would do this but here.. aku!! the Agriculture Officer.
We started off giving a slight brief info about the University as whole and our own faculty and right after that we played the Univesity Corporate video ( Nasib baik, kalau tak, pengsanlah aku kena becakap 2-3 jam none stop).
The C.V. lasted for almost 1/2 hour and after that i gave a eloborated introduction on our University and our faculty as a whole. Intruducing what are the courses available for the students to see and what are the minimum qualification.
Right after my eloborated talk and our q & A session we had tea and proceed to visit some of the lecture halls and laboratory we have in the faculty. One of the aso aso teachers was talking to lavishly about her time in UPM ( nak bagi taulah yang dia ni dari u JUGAK.. She's from serdang too btw.
As she was talking i budge in and loop in tru the conversation and she ask me " En allan orang mana , Sarawak or Sabah" YEA rite with all the Sabanjung i did she still notice i'm a borneon.. hehe. sial. She said ada kelat sabah sikit. hehe, what can i do.
The she ask me a question.. The she asked me a very funny question.
Teacher: U How old ya... Let me guess 28 ke..
Me: ( Stunned!! nolah i'm old already lah.
Teacher: Oh ye how much ya.. dalam 32 la paling tua.
Me: Nope im 40
Teacher: WHAT biar betul..
Me: Betul sumpah no joke
Teacher: (Turning to her friends and said " Ei.. u tau ke En. Allan ni dah 40)
Tak sangka sangat kan.. ingat baru 28 je macam tu... i biasa when it comes to age i normally betul tau.
Me: Ini nak minta belanjalah ni.. hehe.
Teacher: Mesti bagi tau rahasia awet muda ni.. hehe. mesti selalu gi facial kan.
Me: Appppppppoooooo ..( lama dah i tak p facial kan)
So i guess .. i should thank my mum for the genes.. and hehe exercise and pills .. paid up ha. Bukan nak sombong pun, tapi ramai yang cakap macam tu.. ops. MAKASIHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....

Bonnie tyler
I was downloading this song in Bearsharea and i finish downloading the Video this morning. After opening it wow. ... that reminds me the 80's.. so andy take a listen . My sisters should love this piece coz it brings memories ........ ya.
ITS A HEARTACHE.. BY BONNIE TYLER.
It's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
Hits you when it's too late
Hits you when you're down
It's a fool's game
Nothing but a fools game
Standing in the cold rain
Feeling like a clown
It's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
Love him till your arms break
Then he lets you down
It ain't right with love to share
When you find he doesn't care for you
It ain't wise to need someone
As much as I depended on you
It's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
Hits you when it's too late
Hits you when you're down
It's a fool's game
Nothing but a fools game
Standing in the cold rain
Feeling like a clown
It ain't right with love to share
When you find he doesn't care for you
It ain't wise to need someone
As much as I depended on you
Oh, it's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
Love him till your arms break
Then he lets you down
It's a fools game
Standing in the cold rain
Feeling like a clown
It's a heartache
Love him till your arms break
Then he lets you down
It's a fools game
Standing in the cold rain..

A Big blow up.
I guess you would be wondering, whats the blow up araoundabout. hehe.
Lately my middle name is Urgency ... urgency to finish up the work.. urgency to do and finalise my store inventory and its getting on my nerves that my staff is taking things lightly.
I instructed staff to finish up with the inventory before the external audit came ( that would be on the 5th Nov) but he's kinda like talking his sweet time doing it. The problem is, I've asked him to finish it almost 2 month now but he keeps on delaying it and my store is still the same old and Topsy turvy store as it was before i came in.
So yesterday i take my initiative to rerecord back all the inventory and made all the items label even laminating it ( that's how urgent i need to finish it), and when my staff finds out i did all that, he just took it from me and do nothing. Ahhhhhhhh geramnye aku.
Then this morning , i was expecting him to do the tagging and to rearrange the store , he went away for raya celebration and he is no where to be found. I keep my temper and i help up with the upkeeping of my store and he finally came in at around 10 am ( siapa tak geram) and he said he already inform my other staff about it which i wasn't told ( sial betul).
That was okay, i can still handle it and we finally finish rearranging and tagging at around 12.30 am and yang best nye pulak, my staf yang datang lewat ni , went home earlier than me. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ..
We still haven't finish yet cos we still need to rearrange the chemical room but we have to postpone it coz everybody went back home. So after lunch i came back and found nobodys around. I came in, do the rearrangement myself and then he came in at around 3 pm and his reason is nak pergi sembahyang. BULL SHIT, orang lain pun solat jugak, tapi taklah sampai jam 3.
Then i had a big blow up .. my temper went upstairs hehe I told them that i was very disappointed with their behaviour... MARAH NI . .. marah sangat. They ware quiet maybe they know that im mad ( i ni jarang marah.. tapi kalau dah marah.. pengsan). Then my staff ( yang male ni lah) told me that dia tak ada initiative kerja coz he heard lately that i was not happy with his work. That he felt very down going to work coz all he did is just not enough for me. OKKKKKKKKK i may have something to do with it coz lately i been buzzing to my other staff that i was not satisfy with his performance. He said that i should have been more direct in what i want and expect.. hasn't i been more direct??? i asked him like 2 months ago to finish the inventory and until now its not done.
So after we talk and discuss ( itu pun lepas dengar aku marah), i told them, i do apologise for what ever things that they are not happy about me but i only expect that they do thier work and i am fine with that. I hope so that my boy will shape a little up so that my work will be lighter. Penat ohhhhh marah marah ni, i don't like. I've promise myself that i will be more tolerant to my staff right after i quit my job in the Oil Palm Plantation.
You should see me before ... when i was working in the plantation.. i was the cruelest person on earth. I even shouted at my mandore(my head gang) telling her that she is worthless. I could click just like that and be a raging bull, but not anymore. Nowadays i do things politically but sometimes......... if things go out of hand i will be a small raging bull too. hehe. tu pun jarang je. Normally i am a jolly person.
Now this feels good. .. letting it out of my chest. ahhhhhhhhh blogging is a teraphy.

Dining room vs Kitchen.
Last Sunday i was busy at home with my gadget ( my drill, screw driver and hammer) putting my shelves rack. hehe i borrowed my sisters driller which she never use ( coz dia cakap susah nak pakai berat). So dengan kudrat aku hehe i manage to put up 3 rack, 2 in my kitchen and one in my store room.
I never thought that a driller would be so handy and easy coz i always think that its a very difficult thing to use, but after using and drilling my house.... walla senang pulak.
Thats my new Dining room plus the new lights i bought for on RM 30.00 hehe after i cakap ala ala indon with the indonesian sales girl and convince her that i am a bugis dapat discount 50% hehe seronok.
This is my new kitchen vs my dining room just put up the rack. ( penat ooooo pasang sendiri tu) hehe I never knew that the driller would be so easy to handle. hehe. pandai pulak aku kan.
Imagine there is a blind between the room ... that will be my next project.
