i know i said pinky promise, but i might not post raya pics here.. not that there were many taken anyway.. later i'll just might filter some (depends on my mood)..

L-R: Sangeetha, me, Hani, Huda, Aja, Erni, Mira

Hoping For The Best

i guess it's decided, i'm gonna update my resume, n go to the Job Street Career Fair next week with my sister, in hope of finding a new job.. otherwise, i guess i'll switch department.. i'm still in limbo about what i wanna do with my life.. career wise that it... i haven't really have a true passion, which would be awesome if i could turn it as a career...but i wanna find something i enjoy doing n most importantly UNDERSTAND, rather than doing something just for the sake of it... i'm already a zombie/robot, going thru day by day without really putting much thought in it.. i dun think i can survive being this for another year.. but we'll see.. i ain't no risk taker, n i rarely leave my comfort zone (not that i'm saying where i am is comforting).. but i think i need to man up and do something right for once.. i guess i havn't really put much thought to it cuz i've been day-dreaming of marrying a rich man n being a housewife n mother to my kids *pukes* muahahaha something like my mother.. but that ain't gonna happen girl, so now i need to take charge.. 

n i'm taking the fair as my 1st step... in the meantime, i might ask around from college frens n see what they're doing.. actually i do noe what some of them are doing, just keeping my options open.. i'm just a little nervous starting from square one.. i've never really been good at it.. if u ask me what kinda job i'm looking for, i havn't really got a clue.. i would enjoy something less technical.. something that i dun really have to pick my brain (dream big, girl).. other than the fact that i'm lazy (say whut?), i guess that havn't really been my strength from start... owh yes, in short, i'm stoopid  =b  i think i enjoy a job that deals with ppl.. i love Marcus Evans where i need to talk to ppl, it's just the lead research that i hate.. i'm thinking of being a volunteer, but not so sure how that could be a career..

i'm starting to have flashback where my aunt suggested me to be get a job working with old ppl, cuz she saw me taking care of my grandma when she had her operation.. i guess that would be good, but come to think of it, they were my grandma.. of course i'll take care of them cuz i love them.. but with strangers, not so sure.. maybe over the time i'll learn to love them.. but as for now, i'm still undecided on what to do.. i need help.. who do i go to for help??

so what kinda job is suitable for someone with a Marketing & Management degree but with a 1 year experience in Market Risk (which doesn't say much)

Quote of the Day

With all the Petknode fiasco going on, i'd like to dedicate today's quote to the cats around the world...

"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated" --- Gandhi

Petknode Fiasco

well this isn't really an up-to-date post... many have been posting about this and also tweeting about it.. i personally get the updates from Joe Lee's twitter.. long story short, there were two fucktards from Petknode who scammed ppl (yes, it's considered a scam) by running a 'cat hotel' but then abandoning them.. n we're not talking about 2 or 3 cats here.. we're talking bout 200++, and some are still missing.. a whole lot of activist, media n volunteers came together to help rescue the cats, who were left starving and in great trauma.. some were even dead when they got there... it's obvious that if u are offering service to take care of ppls cats, AND getting PAID FOR IT, you will have to do ur duties... using the excuse that u were shorthanded doesn't do u justice... why would u take in so many cats then?? this is off course based on their so-called apology in facebook here.. which i'm sure everyone know is only crap.. the only thing they are sorry for is that they got caught (it's cliche' but it's true)..

having family members to clean out the premises doesn't help u either.. and the absurd part is that they were stupid enough to report of breaking and entering, when the volunteers were on a rescue mission... i mean, if i trust u to take care of my cat and found that u just left it to die, i would want to have it back n i dun need ur fucking permission to go get it, regardless of where it is... even 'No Trespassing' has it's limit.. u don't walk by a private property, see it on fire and hearing screams n not do anything about it because there's a stupid sign that says No Trespassing.. fine, maybe it's not exactly the same case but anyway, u don't be idiots n think that u can get away with it...

the police ain't much help either from what i hear.. i try not to hate on d cops, cuz my grandfather was one.. but the cops on this case are ridiculous.. of course it's animals we're talking about here and not children, but lives are at stake here... u can't diss this off n assume it's a petty thing for ppl to abuse animals.. i thought by recent revelation bout how cruel ppl could be to animals, from the puppy who was forced to stand n thrown around, to the cats being hit n kicked at so many times, the authorities would realise how serious this is.. i'm not an expert bout who should be responsible in making sure that laws are enforced or what not, but i trust the reporters and NGOs does.. n when they say that no serious action was taken, i believe them... so hopefully, this would be the last case of this such to happen.. otherwise, it'll take the whole world to condemn us as a country and only then will the government react.. and by react, i mean menggelabah mak ayam...

anyway, the main reason why i wanted to post this (other than giving my two cent) is to have a bunch of links n info that might help out..

- Read here for more info on this (there's more links there) and also more pics of Petknode (as dark as i am, my heart ain't strong enough to post those pics here)
- The NGO actively helping out here and here...
- Contact the Department of Veterinary Services by emailing them at kp@dvs.gov.my or azizj@dvs.gov.my (send it to Dato' Dr Abdul Aziz Jamaluddin himself) or call/sms 019-5136055..
- Go harass Shahrul Azuwan and Yushairi, the owner of Petknode by calling or texting them at 012-6606423 (although not sure if they're abandoned that number too) and their recent address at H-16-05, Block 11, Tingkat 16, No 5, Flora Damansara, Jalan PJU 10/8, 47820 Damansara Damai.

That's all i have but i'd recommend following twitter for recent updates either Joe or KTAJ or nsurendrann (sorry no link but i was told he's the lawyer for this case) n if any of the links doesn't work, lemme noe cuz Maybank blocks several site so i can't test them out..

p/s: Najib (as in our PM) will be at Maybank this Friday 9 Sept 2011, for some perasmian logo n Raya Open house.. we should get him involve n have him aware of this case (not sure if he is) i don't noe if that info helps..

Freddie Mercury

so the most talk-about thing this week (besides the Petknode fiasco) is Freddie's 65th Birthday... celebs are giving him shout out n all.. so i ain't a big Queen fan, it wasn't really my era.. but i did grow to love Bohemian Rhapsody superbly so much ever since my mum first mentioned it a long time ago... so at his supposed 65th birthday, Google did a doodle tribute to him, which is where i first heard Don't Stop Me Now, which is an equally awesome song... 

so here, i'm putting the song here, just for the sake of it..

also, if u havn't heard of Bohemian Rhapsody before (which is one of my fave song to karok to), here it is...

hope u enjoy... cheers

Stand Tough

I'm older and wiser, I've learnt a lot since then,
I'm no longer that little girl who got her heart broken,
I got up when i fall and had my head held high,
I'll no longer leave myself in the dark to die,
I love myself more now, more than you ever will,
I'll no longer screw around just for the thrill,
When I look in the mirror, I don't just love what I see,
But I'm even proud of myself cause I am finally free,
I'll no longer have to put up with your smothering,
And all your brainwashing about me being worth nothing,
In my rear view mirror that's where you'll stay,
Cause I'm older and wiser now, I'll no longer be your prey.

Fairytale

Hello there my love,
How are you today?
I hope you're alright,
Hope everything is OK.
We haven't talk for awhile now have we?
There's just so much things to say,
From the shit i go through at work,
To those very rare lovely days.
But enough about me, I want to know about you,
How's that tummy of yours and your favourite sport too?
Did you miss me a bit while I was away?
Please tell me the truth, whatever the price I'll pay.
You seem thinner now, anything bothering you?
It's stress you say, I wonder what you're going through.
I hope you'll share things with me, make me your confidant,
Cause I care so much about you, no I'm not nonchalant.
I miss talking to you, and staring into your eyes,
I've bared my soul to you, even more that I realise.
Even after all that, there's one thing I still wish I could do,
To be in your embrace, knowing that you love me too.

Family Portrait

a little girl in a lonely room,
suffocated by the noise, all in gloom,
voice rising, each louder than the other,
it's been the same through thick and thin weather.
a little girl with no shoulder to cry on,
if she knew her fate earlier, she'd wish she was never born,
to the outside world, they lived happily,
behind closed doors, they suffered miserably.
a little girl stuck between a broken marriage,
nothing can be saved, everything was damaged,
they're at it again, she prayed it will all end,
the heated arguments and shouting, she can no longer comprehend.
a littler girl hugging her old teddy bear for solace,
and imagined herself in a peaceful place,
that is filled with butterflies and double rainbows,
soft green grass between her toes.
a little girl, now back to reality,
breath held for a minute that felt like an eternity,
the door slammed open, and there stood a guy,
unshaven and dirty with a swollen eye.
a little girl watched him takes off his shoes,
let out a sigh while letting his tie loose,
a bottle fell out of his hand,
crashes to the floor on top of a pile of cans.
a little girl wants this all to stop,
she misses her parents a lot,
she don't see them that often, always staying hid,
she can't make them stop, after all, she's just a kid.
a little girl looking up at a portrait,
smiles on their faces, for once they looked great,
she tried to reminisce the old days when they were happy,
sadly she can't think of any.
a littler girl all torn up inside,
just waiting for her pain to subside,
laid her head down on a lonely pillow,
cried her eyes out in deep sorrow.

Thanx A Lot Party Pooper

U have officially ruined it for us

ugghhh
