Of the many people

So, on Wednesday and Thursday ya, I went to Shell House in Damansara for their SRD. What is SRD? It's Shell Recruitment Day and for me, the whole experience was good - a brain teaser.. okay, not really a brain teaser.. depends on the person lah. It may either be a piece of cake, a medium level sudoku or rocket science stuff. To me, it's more of the sudoku + rocket science, but it was lots of fun.

There were 8 of us, equally divided into 4 boys and 4 girls. Most of us were holders of bachelors with 2 Masters degree holders. There was Ivy, Noreen, Laili, Iskandar, Chua, Jeremy and Michael. Didn't get a chance to take piccies of us together cause of the tight schedule. The only time we did nothing was at lunch and I didnt bring along my camera. *sigh*

Anyways, SRD was over for me at 5 (20 minutes overdue to celoteh). Iskandar and Laili were waiting for me eventhough they were long done... how sweet was that? Iskandar sent me to Taman Bahagia's LRT for me to get to KL Sentral.. Damansara's traffic at that time was pretty okay. Better than I expected...

Anyhoo... results of SRD is on Tuesday next.. but hush hush, if u know what i mean. Hehehe..

Aaah, on my way back from KL Sentral on the Komuter right... everybody was soo sardined together. No one cute tho.. I snapped some piccies in the train.. muahaha.. of the many people, no one cute. double *sigh*

Tahlil

We had a tahlil last Saturday. It was Maghrib and Isya' prayer along with a Yasin recital. My uncles and cousins were there and my friends too. Mom had a caterer, Uncle Khalil to do the food. We had tomato rice, fried chicken, gulai daging, tempe, cucumber and pineapple salsa, fried noodles and sirap limau. YUMMY! I made cake batik which was extra YUMMY points and mom made her coffee jelly. I went to the night market to get some currypuffs and cucur udang. It was extremely crowded that night market place, grr. We also had fruits - bananas (PISAAANG), watermelon and oranges.

So we had a full load of food with only 50 people around.. so guess what, there was a ton of leftovers which we then distributed to the guests. Hehehe...

Nyways, it was an okay night. I talked with my cousin, Din about work. He's in MAS (muahaha!). He said a few friends of his who worked in Exxon went to iPerintis. And he said to get good money, people need to jump jobs.. that's one way to get a raise. Good advice... but he's still working in MAS so I'll wait for him to jump jobs first. BTW, I hope MAS will do much much better...

Okay.. here are piccies from tahlil... A burnt out candle.. so pretty!! My brother and the little brat - Farhantok (cause she hantoks her head every single day). A frog who joined in the party a little too late.. how yucky is that?

Of the many templates

Dear brother who is residing in Hamamatsu, Japan..

sayonara!!

Afiza-chan

Of the many birthdays

Happy Birthday to Julie Aida Yusuf who turned 23 last July 7th. We intentionally postponed her expected birthday celebration to today, July 18th because we are the bestest of buddies... plus the fact the was on the other side of Malaysia. Geez.. blame her for living so far away *sigh*

Went to DOME and did a little people watching. Realized that we couldnt make fun of anybody in Malay anymore since everybody here knows the lingua. Not hot guys to ooze on, but there's a ton of super sexy chicas, way scandalous than people who goes to parties in the states. If my dad sees them, he'll be thankful to have me as a daughter who is proper enough.

Anyways, to Aida.. my looooooooooooooooong crazy friend who I go through all my ups and downs with (and sometimes against each other..) but like you said, we still stuck together. Epi besday buddy!

Of the many things

Of flans and GREs and interviews and farhanah, one can find refuge by running. Not by running away from the many things one find bothersome, but literally - running. There's only you, your running shoes and the many changing scenes you are in. Then you start to have running buddies. Here in Malaysia, most are men. First they would try to compete with you... which is dumb cause you are running for your health, not for some psycho need to be better than people you run with. After they realize that they are not actually competing, they start to engage with you.. talking I mean. Then they start to make 'very funny' comments. Then they'll be your buddy.

Back in RPI, I managed to run for 1.5 months.. hehe... then Nusantara Rojak came along and took out the whole interest away. But I just simply love running, altho they say it's not good for you. It's you and just you that's involved with you. It's a good feeling. Especially when you retreat to your reality that a whole jungle is waiting for you. So when you are left only with you, then it's a haha and lala time.

*sigh*

BTW, alhamdulillah that I will finally be doing something starting August. Can easily start this Monday, but have to settle many other things first (like running). I know a BUNCH of other people are going to be there too, so YEAY! We eat lunch together2 okay..

Little brat is going to Australia this 27th.. sigh.. although she's a major brat who screams and shouts and pull and hit everything and everyone, i think that's fine. cause everybody needs to be a brat... but jangan besar jadi brat sudahlah. Did I tell you she's sepet? Like, where in god's earth did she developed little squinty eyes like the Chinese when neither of her dad's or mom's bloodline had any of those of the chinese?

Okay.. gtg.. sayonara..
*miss bunch*

FLIP my FLAN

It has been almost a month since i've been back in old triple B.. to those who doesn't know, triple B is Bandar Baru Bangi (BBB)... yeay (sarcastic tone needed here).. aight, not everything is gloomy though.. in fact, some things are jiggly.. hehe.

BEHOLD, Exhibit A

(What is this crater-full concoction? EWWW!)


(Aww. it is but my flan upside down.. fresh from the steamer.. a bit eww factor here)


(But ooh lala what is this? My flan!! Perfect jiggles with nice brown caramelized sugar..)


(Already eaten tho, by my Babah)


Okay yeah i know.. pretty pathetic to be showing pictures of a caramel pudding or 'flan' like my bunch would prefer to call it.. ngada2 mamat tuh. BUT here's the important thing.. i made it myself with supervision from my Mak Chak and my Kak Wan. Apparently, the way i've been caramelizing my sugar was not-so-totally correct, but worked out anyways.. this time, i get to flip my flan.. haha.. Flip Flan.. hehe.. i wanna call it that now.. Flip Flan.. cute..

So now, i accept orders of Flip Flan for parties or events. Email me at my email address.. hehe
