Snooze button

I would wake up at 8.30 every weekday morning and take my bath. I wash my hair every morning so that the shines from the hot air of the blow dryer would stay longer through out the day and the hair will maintain to be manageable too. Will leave the house at approximately 9.05am. Yes, It will only took me less than half an hour to get dress, dry my hair and did my little quick tone&moisturize facial. The make up comes later, once I get to the office. I'll always make some hot Milo with wheat grains for a breakfast on-the-go.
Then I would start the car and let it heat up for 5 minutes, and if I have the time, I'll do the make up, if not, I'll just enjoy the hot Milo. I would take the LDP, making a turn to TTDI towards the Eastin Hotel to get to the office. I'll reach the office at around 9.40am and sometimes 9.50am depending on how bad the traffic is. But nothing that I cant manage.
During those period of waking up and going to the office, two persons will never fail to make a quick contact with me. The Queen Bee will be infront of the door, or at the kitchen, asking me if I want anything for breakfast or making some random casual chat. And then, there's the Lover, calling on his way to the office.
This will all be happening if I set the alarm clock at 7.30am. If I'm required to be at the office early, I'll set the alarm at 6.30am.

But today was a little different. I set the alarm clock at 6.30pm. Yeah, the number tells that I need to be at the office early today but I woke up at 10.00am instead, after a panic phonecall from a colleague at the office because I had a meeting at 10.30am in Jalan Ampang. The two persons that were always there during those period before 9.50am didnt try and make any contact with me at all today.
Funny, when bad thing tends to happen, every other little things that are supposed to help and make it a little less worst seem to conspire along with it. Funny... yeah.
*sighs*


[posted at 8.24PM] Bottom line, I was late today because my alarm didnt go off like it should, instead I mistakenly scheduled it to rings at 6.30PM. And true to its word.. it rang during my meeting at... yeah..6.30PM.

Right now, I'm eliminating all the PM times in my alarm list. Just so it wont happen again.

Townhouse for sale.

I'm selling off my property in TownVilla, Cyberjaya. and I'm looking for a new one somewhere nearer.

The TownVilla is a great place. At first, I was reluctant to let the house go because it is not easy to find a two-story townhouse that spacious. I even had a small renovation extending the kitchen area. The original plan when I bought the place was for me to stay during my university years in Cyberjaya, but I was unlucky enough because it only completed after I finished my degree. And now that I'm working closer to home, maintaining it is difficult. At this moment, I have a tenant renting the place for 3 years. So that's an advantage to those who wants to own it for investment proposes - a ready tenant. :D And of course, I'm selling it as it is - a fully equipped house.

And as for my real estate hunting, I am nowhere near close to what I want. Someone suggested Ara Damansara. It does sounds ideal because it is near to my parents', his parents', the office and everywhere else. I'm thinking of the place that I can live in and it has to be a landed property. Nothing over 500 grand. I dont think I could afford anything beyond that. I'm done living in a condominium. Living alone will still be an option and if I have someone interested to rent it, I'll be more than happy to give it a go. But my mind isnt certain on where should my next purchase will be. I'm still on the look out for the best place. :) Any suggestion?

Starting over.

This is me at my new office. Yeah, I got nothing to do. :pI finally succumbed to the slavery of the working life again. As much as I thought I will never have anything to do with managing events, I finally decided to give it a try.

I am somewhat desperate for a job.
I'm desperate because I cant stand waking up at 3pm not knowing what to do, spending the entire day waiting and more waiting for friends, family and Mr Lover to be done with their responsibilities (working, of course) so that they can spend their time with me. I cant stand that every day, I'm running low on ideas of how to entertain myself during those boring hours. Creativity has its limit and so does patience.

I was been given a choice between a sales and marketing and an event management positions. Both from two very different companies. One in Bukit Bintang and another in Petaling Jaya. I took the latter knowing I'll suck more at sales.

Today is day two. So far, I've yet to love it. But I dont hate it either. No expectation.
Wish me luck. I'm hoping for this one to stick for awhile. Hoping for my next "leap of faith" will not be anytime soon. Not for at least a year and half.
