Journey from Kelantan to Kedah

Everytime when my family travel from Kelantan to Kedah, my youngest son and daughter always ask their father to stop at any recreation area especially the one with river and waterfall. So last week, their wishes came true when on the way back from 5 days holiday at my hometown in Kelantan, my husband purposely give a chance to them.

When we arrived, the place was so quiet and not crowded with people as usual. We have stopped by several time before but it was always full with people. Adib and Fatihah quickly changed to swimming clothes and jumped to the cold and clean river.
My eldest son, he used to be like his youngest brother when he was small, but now his aged is reaching 17 this May, so he just joined me and husband admiring the view. The splash of the cold water was so tempting, i'm shouting to swim too. So enjoy these photo I managed to capture.

Island Hopping in Langkawi

Hi, greeting to everybody. Especially to those who just came back from school breaks.Last 2 weeks I attended a 3 days and 2 nights course at Langkawi.It has been so long since my last visit several months ago.

The course was arranged by Unit Peperiksaan to all the Penyelaras/Penolong Penyelaras KKBI for each department. And as usual the 8 to 5 session are packed with valuable informations. We were introduced to Quest2 application, resfreshement of the KKBI etc.

And besides the absolutely fully informative courses, we also appreciate the chances given to hop the island. We cruise along the langkawi sea to the Gua Kelawar, Gua Buaya, floating seafood restaurant(we dropped by and able to see live and realtime all the nemo, belangkas, etc) and luckily we could also fed the eagles with breakfast leftover which is of course the bread slices that has turned into bread chunks. From far we can see the Kilim Geoforest Park, Pulau Kasut(the island sure very much like a shoe-but without the shoe tie), Pulau King Kong (you should believe this - unluckily the boat cruised so fast i can't take a snap of it).
I managed to take some interesting photos to share.

Rebate Online

On 14 February 2009, i logged on to pos online for car cash rebate. My kancil road tax and insurance has been renewed early February. So i figured by 14 February i was eligible for the rebate. Previously, my husband suggested me to go to the post office and claim the rebate(I should have followed his advice). I replied to him mentioning that i don't like to queue at the post office (although we are not queueing anymore cause we can take the number then find any seat in the post office before they called our number) and beside I should use the technology [this is my area and i earn my living with it], so that i don't have to be physically in the post office. I registered, filled in all the necessary information and successfully submitted my claim.

The system displayed that i will get my rebate after 3-4 working days. On 20th Feb, i logged on to the system to check for the claim. I acknowledged that my claim is still in process. The next day i checked again...still ini process. So i called the 1300300300 number asking for my rebate status. Luckily i don't have to wait long, a soft spoken guy from the service center answered and get my particulars. He said he will report my query and explained that it might be due to the system that caused the delay for my cash rebate. though in my head i thought that system should make their services much faster and easy. On the other hand the system doesn't function as it supposed to work.

Today, i checked the system again, and it's end up the same..

Another Birthday

This morning, i was woken up by my phone alarm with a note "Birthday Cik Ngah". Ha ha, that very minute, i typed birthday wishes embeded with happy smiley animation and sent to my beloved sister. Wish her the most wonderful birthday ever. 23th Feb, I never missed wishing her happy birthday, though we are physically far located, she in east coast while me up here in nothern area...you are very near to me in my heart.

Later not very second, my phone beeping and i got a thank you message from her with additional "Wait for my free call" message. I wonder if i could switch to the same phone package as hers, which i guessed she is using prepaid hotlink compared to me using a postpaid celcom which i think the bill is so ridiculous and not worth paying ( the plan that i took is 250 bundle minute call duration and 20sms.- RM50 per month) and what i did paid most of the months is hunded over... When celcom said RM50 minute, of course it doesn't included the hidden item such as the itemised bill(rm3.00), telemanager enhanced(rm5.00) Call me tones(rm3.00 - of course this one i don't blame celcom), 5% monthly charges and chargeable usages, plus effective november last year all calls made to short codes such as 100 and 103 charged RM1.00 and RM2.00 respectively.

Thinking of switching to another provider but i don't know why, it always keep holding me on...
Might be due to the reasons
a. Most of my friends have this numbers
b. All my student also has this number
c. Don't have time to call the provider
d. Haven't decide which provider to choose
e. I love my number
f. My kids have already memorize this number.

Well someday, I will find the time....

Faridah's Birthday

Just finished my breakfast at the umi's cafetaria this morning. So i followed the advise "Eat your breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a beggar", I took a half plate of plain rice (of course the plate is still full, except the rice amount is reduced), compliment with cencaru sumbat, some anchovy, slices of cucumber and a must have sambal belacan prepared by mak teh.. And not forgetting the teh-o-ice....(i change my beverage menu today, and everyday..so everytime when came to the cafetaria, i couldn't say "air macam biasa" coz nothing "macam biasa" to expect.

I met my mentee's. They were about to started their breakfast. Ina, one of my mentee signaling her eyes toward Faridah (another mentee) mentioning "Puan, kelmarin birthday Faridah"....Opps I forgot her birthday and some other mentee too i guess.... Last year i bought in advance 20 mini tweeties, koala, bear, panda at the Bukit Bunga. Keep save in my locker at the office, and when the birthday come, i got something to give.. Regret, this year i didn't prepare that... so Here i wish to wish Faridah "Happy Sweet 20th Birthday Yesterday. Sorry I didn't have anything to give as a birthday present, but later when i have time i will find something for you"... Though i thought i a card will do just fine...

About Faridah : Celebrating 2oth birthday on 17 Feb 2009...A very humble, nice and sweet protege, soft spoken and easy to get along with. Hardworking and patient..

Flowers

Flowers... I like, I admire most, colorful, come in different sizes and smell....

Prevoious days back, when i reached home from the office, i parked my car at the parking area infront of my house..Nobody at home. My kids were still in school for sport training, coz the school sport day is around the corner...My hubby, somewhere in the mosque i guess...

So, i browse around my garden admiring my husband's effort towards the surrounding garden in our lots, something i like to do if i got time...With my sony ericsson cybershot 5.0 megapixel.. i did some shooting...and the products are as displayed.

Car Parking

Everymorning after punching my yellow card or in other word "punch card", i will drive my car and park it somewhere near to my department building. Not really near, but very very near. Seem like if i could park infront of my office door i would do. But of course i wouldnt' coz my department is at the second floor of the building and that make my parking intention is impossible....Come on, i wouldn't do that if soo.

Last weekend, when i parked my car at the jitra market for groceries (Friday is the best day for grocery coz, i could't do it at other day due to officially must be in the office), i found a flyer that has something to do with the parking coupon....Wow, unbelievable.. never thought of paying for the parking in Jitra, though that what had been implemented in Alor Setar. But never come accross to me that someday all the jitra resident's that come for groceries at the pasar need to pay the car park coupon... He he..sob sob..

Better Today than never

Last monday, I attended the Staff Development Training at my organisation. Well the title is very related to what i always care to do but haven't started for so long. I am somewhat very agree with the presenter's opinion, Dr. Baharuddin that we must start writing something. At least a single piece a day would do. Just imagine what you will get after a day, a week, a fortnight, a month, a year and many-many years ahead, of course.
