Plan for Highschool Reunion

Sunday, March 30th, 2008

When we just graduated from high school, we said that we will have our first reunion after 5 years. This June, it will be 5 years. The topic of reunion seems to be forgotten until one of the mates brought it up on yahoo group few weeks ago.

HighSchool03
2003. With the Math killer-yet-fun-teacher, Mr.HL.

Now we aim to have it on December this year. Somewhere in between Christmas and New Year when most of the people will have holidays and go back hometown. There were friends who suggested to have it at Padang or even Bali. Whew~! It is already hard to gather 48 people in the hometown, Medan. Going so far away will be a hassle.

HighSchool01
2003. Classmates with the class’ T-shirt.

After seeing replies from some of the classmates, the topic seems to be stuck there. The people who replies is those few people only. Funny thing is, those who used to be the active spoken people in class and always reply in Yahoo groups don’t voice out this time. Well, a few of them did reply though. Those who used to read and never bother to reply, do reply this time, including me. :P

HighSchool02
2003. Classmates & Principal with class’ costume.

It is just March going to April. Everyone still not sure of their schedule, whether they can take leave or not, where is their location on December, and so on. We are scattering around now; around the world and around the provinces in Indonesia. I can count with my fingernails the people that confirmed can participate in the upcoming reunion.

I’m not sure where will I be and what will I be in December. Maybe freelance in Medan, looking for job in Singapore, backpacking with the boyfriend around Malaysia, or working in KL. But I think sparing one day for reunion in the hometown is done-able.

Let’s see whether it’s just hot for a while (panas - panas taik ayam) or there is a commitment there to make it done.

Jumat capek

Friday, April 20th, 2007

I was sitting in the RapidKL bus to Putrajaya Sentral while my handphone ring. I picked it up with no clue of whose number is that.

“Can you please clean the round thing that you put around the cats after you come back home? Because it’s not good for the cats.”

Aha. It’s the housemate. “But it’s so smelly.. I don’t know it harms the cats.”

“I know. I have no time to clean it up yesterday. I will clean it on weekend. Please clean the thing cos it can cause bla bla bla…” I didn’t hear it clearly as the bus was so noisy and I’m not in the mood to listen to someone’s lecture early in the morning.

So, this thing has cause him scare like sai. If it’s that dangerous for the cats then why didn’t he clean that thing away and let me know when we all at home tonight? He got so many don’t-do-this-that list. Isshh..

Anyway, the round thing is the one that ppl usually put in the cupboard, wardrobe to prevent smell sth like that. I forget what’s that call already, not even in Bahasa. Si lo…Tonight my phone rang again. Unknown number. His boyfriend asked me to open the door for the housemate because he forgets to bring his key.

The housemate saw my boy and thank him for opening the door. So damn sopan man!

Apa harus aku bertindak kejam baru dia mau toleransi? Orang aneh..

War is declared !

Wednesday, April 18th, 2007

Since last Saturday, I cannot blog! I cannot check emails! I cannot watch Heroes! I cannot read ppl’s blogs! I cannot looking for jobs! I cannot learn Autcad! I cannot download stuffs! I cannot chat thru msn! I cannot cannot CANNOT ONLINE!

I have scared that this day gonna come AGAIN! Since the latest bill for Streamyx is almost RM500 and before that Streamyx sent a warning letter sth like that. Damn it! We sms the housemate and he came back to us with a lame answer SERVER DOWN. Oho.. Fine. We waited and waited till monday. We contacted him again, either sms or call. He saw us at home on Monday and said nothing. Tuesday we contacted him again and he came back home told us another lame answer ~ Because no one use the internet, only you and your girlfriend, so I cut it lo.

Wtf?!? Last saturday he said server down, monday no reaction and now he cut already. He cannot afford to pay, say la. So damn want to save the face. I so wanted to know how he settle the bill in order to cut the streamyx. Last month he asked my boy whether we still want to use the internet or not because he thought of terminate it for he and the other one seldom use. But if we still want, it’s not a problem for them too, it’s only RM19.25 per person. And now he said only two of us use it. Wtf?!? Like the house has 5 ppl or more, don’t count the cats ok. It’s 2 - 2 now. Not 3 say don’t want, 2 say want. Stupid so unfair.

I speculate that he saw the internet kena cut AGAIN (the 3rd time in 6 months!), the bill is so high almost RM500 belum lagi water and electric, we gonna move out mid of May (the rental start from mid of this month to mid of next month), plus he seldom use internet at home, so he thought of leave it like that, cut mah cut lo. Cos if he wants to activate it again, he needs to pay not a small amount of money, plus the activation fee or whatever charge it is. Then after we move out, he not gonna use it anymore. So, leave it there, find some stupid acceptable reason, see when have money then only slowly slowly pay la.

Every 2 months we paid him, but I didn’t see the evidence of him paying it. Never had I saw there is 0 (read: Zero) tunggakan at the bill. Never! There is always quite a number of money at tunggakan there. At least RM100, ditumpuk-tumpuk lama-lama jadi bukit, until 300-400 for each water, electric and streamyx. If I count it, at least 5 months for each. Last 2 months when he gave me the bill statement, I saw he marked the other fella not yet paid since April 2006 for the water bill! Wtf?!? 10 months already.

He only paid when the house has no water for it has been cut. He just wrote a note for us and stick it on the fridge that he called the ppl already and will settle the bill, asked us to save the water as much as we can. Wtf?!? Not even called us and talked to us directly. He didn’t pay all for this. Then here comes no electric, suddenly everything off. Again, he didn’t pay all. Streamyx, already twice and now is the third one. Before this, he never paid all also. Not even half. Wtf?!? Is he a psycho who likes to owe money and sekali pays like thousand ringgit? Is he so damn no money to pay the bill but care to buy lotsa foods and stuffs for the cats? I feel like korek his brain and his heart, see what is he thinking of actually.

The only thing that he never forget to pay, not even late, and always asked us to pay fast fast is the rental. For he said before that the house owner is very strict. Aha.. I see. If only the water, electric, streamyx is that strict and can make him scare. What makes me curious is how can he owe water bill until hundreds while every month is about RM20sth only. That’s like a year of never paid?

Fucker. I won’t let him go. He wanna play this game, Fine. I’m gonna continue with him.It’s my last month staying here and I’m gonna use the time wisely, let him ‘die’ slowly. I don’t wanna harm the cats but I’m definitely gonna do something with the computer, TV, PS, fridge, and so on. Let him feel what he said and did to us, all turning back to him.

*Evil mode on*

Not not not my day!

Monday, March 26th, 2007

I waited and took T43 from KJ to Putrajaya Sentral, waited again and took 429 to HSBC Cyberjaya and waited again for 428. I asked one of the Abang from RapidKL at the bus stop there and he told me 428 just came 4 minutes before I get there. -__-” Yeah great. 45 minutes later it came with a bunch of black people. Never had I seen such a lot of them in the public bus before. Alrite, this bus is heading to Limkokwing what.I went to student service. Waiting and folding my leg. Then I felt something unusual with my sandal. I took a look at it. Great. Now, one of the tali already broken alias putus. Damn it! I always face this kind of thing in an inappropriate time. Where am I gonna get a new sandal? I settle my stuff there and walk while dragging my right foot and sandal to artshop, hoping to get UHU or something to glue or stick it.

No UHU but UHU stick. -__-” I go through the look-so-empty-artshop-compare-to-last-time until I saw my life saver, Faber Castell Tack It. RM 2.80 gone. I walk to the courtyard and apply the Tack It to my sandal hoping no one pay attention to me. Voila! The tali can stick to the sole, only that I can see there is a green thing on my sandal. Whatever la, how many stupid fella walk while look at your shoes / sandals one.

I walked to the bursary while accidentally slipped at this celaka place. Having no one walk beside me, I have no place to catch and hold on. I landed my butt on the floor with my hands at the side try to hold on the floor which cause a fatal effect on my left hand. I sprain my arm. Damn so pain. The moment I slip, I thought my leg gonna kena and it will be a ‘perfect’ day for me. Thanks God it’s only the hand though I still need some time to sit down and make myself fully present at that place.

When I went back to Putrajaya Sentral, I saw T43 left. Damn it! Got to wait for another 30minutes. Patient was tested for today, well everyday perhaps. And to take my time, think clearly, be fully present on the place.

Moving again

Thursday, March 22nd, 2007

It’s about 5 months I stay in the current house that full with 7 cats. Each time I go back home, they will stop whatever activity they have and look at me deeply. Whenever I walk to the balcony, they will do the same thing. Until I think that it’s me who look like a monkey in their eyes. I’m the monkey inside the invisible cage and the cats are the patrons even though they are the one inside the cage.Before enter the house, I always take a deep breath then only walk in. It just so smelly inside, a mixture of the cats’ litter, food, rubbish, etc. It becomes worse from day to day. 5 months ago, the house mate still quite diligent in cleaning the cats cage and litter every week or every 2 weeks but not now. My boy and I always wonder why the house mate want to have so many cats while he doesn’t seem to have time for them. Sometimes people just has too much money and doesn’t know how and where to spend it huh? They rather spend the money for the hobby rather than paying bills until kena cut.

Every corner, everything in the house, especially around the living room, is fulled with the cats’ fur. Imagine 7 cats, long hair one. You can find it in kitchen too, abit only. Not only the living room is occupied by the cats + cage + their fur, but also the kitchen. Most of the kitchen space goes to the cats stuffs like their foods (bigger than 10kg rice), plates and so on.

I actually like this place so much (Kelana Jaya), but not with the current house considering the situation. Public transportation is available to so many places. Shopping is easy. So many positive points. It’s the house condition that create the negative point.

I can’t even call this house as home. Living room is fulled with the house mate stuffs. No space for us to put our stuffs. Besides that, I don’t want to take the risk to wear sandals that full with fur too. My room, that’s my home. I sleep, eat, online, relax, read, watch movie at there. It’s my bedroom, dining room, living room. Too bad it can’t function as kitchen and bathroom. :(

We’ve been thinking to move out and look for a room around KJ. But the rental is just too expensive for us. :( So, when the friend said he found a unit house (apartment) at Taman Melati with a reasonable-we-can-afford price, we decided to move there. Yeah, I know, it’s like one north and one south if you see the LRT path. I can’t go Ikano or Sunway whenever I want. But it’s good consider the house is free of fur and unwanted smell. Less people in the house, I hope it will less the problem among house mates too.

When we told the current house mate, he said we need to give him 2 fucking months prior notice. That’s the reason why we have to pay 2 months deposit when moved in. If not, we will only get a month deposit back plus utilities deposit. What the tuuuuttt??? How does this make sense? Normally it just one month notice. He never told us about the 2 months thingy and now suddenly come out with such a reason. Terkutuk.. terkutuk..

Some more he said he doesn’t plan want to rent out our current room anymore. Yeah, even if you want, I doubt there is stupid people like us out there who will want to rent it once they see the house condition, not to say what type of people you are yet. We just so stupid cos rushing to find a place to stay at that time. Plus last time we only saw 2 or 3 cats and overall looks kinda clean and ok. Ishh…

Bak ciu ho ngiau sai ko liau la..

First Interview

Thursday, March 15th, 2007

Never had I thought that I will be so unprepared and no plan at all to go for an interview. I thought I will go on tomorrow but they asked me to go today after my working hour. So yeah, here I went with an awful-tired-look-after-the-not-enough-sleep-rushing-for-work-night mix with the exciting feeling for it is my 1st real interview and no clue of where exactly is Kelana Centre Point, just base on my research from the map I found online that it is somewhere near Kelana Square and can be reached with Rapid KL bus.On the map, it looks like so near with Kelana Square, but in fact it’s not. I gotta walk uphill deep inside then only I saw it. Yeah, I always kena tipu by the map one, never really calculate the scale thing. Last time I even thought I could walk from Puchong to Limkokwing campus at Cyberjaya. -__-” Cos of the distance on the map.

The interview went quite relax one. Just talk and talk and describe about myself and so on. Next week is the 2nd round. It’s great of course if I were to go to 2nd round. If not, I’m glad for getting the experience of the interview session. Really. For I am always curious of how the interview for an AE is going to be. Even for designer. Although this one I’ve went thru once when interview for internship at Grey Worldwide together with YinYin. And we got bombarded with tons of questions about our work and got rejected after that. -__-” And half year after that, I met one of the interviewer on my BEIP graduation day at 95%. The world is so small.

People come, people go. Max is leaving the country today and will see him (if I got the chance) again 3 months later. All the best yo~!

Officially graduate!

Sunday, February 4th, 2007

The ceremony at Hall of Fame. 430 students graduate.

The lecturers that I respect and love the most (apart from their mistake and bad stuffs), who have been supporting me thru my final year and make me fall deep into advertising. Patricia and Lawrence.

With the beloved one who always be there for me, irreplaceable. The boyfriend and parents.

Click image to enlarge.

I’m so happy for I’ve officially graduated from Limkokwing after 3 up and down years!Despite the bad things, if not because of Limkokwing, I won’t be who I am today. I won’t know the people who make me become like today; the boyfriend, the classmates, the ex-housemates cum ex-sisters, 95percent, etc.

Three years, short and long at the same time. So much memories, some to be keep, some can’t wait to be forgotten.

It’s like yesterday only when I’m so worried and busy looking for college or uni to continue my study. Now, I’m so worried and busy to look for a job. And tomorrow, I’m gonna end my hibernation and start my internship at GFH until end of March, when my visa gonna expired.

It’s a beginning of a long long long journey. A wish, a hope, a dream, a passion of a little girl name Kathie.

Parents had fly back to Medan. I miss them :( I’m so damn sensi and my mood swing easily today.

So exhausted after 3 days in a row shopping with parents. Been walking and taking public transport (bus, taxi, Putra lrt, star) alot in that 3 days. Gonna sleep soon to rest and gain energy for tomorrow to wake up early in the morning, something that I haven’t done for quite some time. Oh no…
