F&N Creative Display

Last Friday I went to KLCC with my friend to meet up with our freelancer. At the same time we went for a bit of shopping. When I followed my friend out for a break, I saw a creative display next the KLCC entrance. It was make up of F&N canned drink. Various types of it...From the cans, it became a artwork of a happy family. Although it's not a new technique, but it was nicely done.

Project Petaling Street & Credit Card

Yesterday while I was surfing the net, I found out about this site and saw that many bloggers link their posting to this site. I read some of the blogs and it was interesting. Some of it I will definitely visit again. Many just like me, writing what's on their mind their daily encounters at work place, home, school etc.

Today I found out that my cheque for a freelance project has cleared. Hmmm...now I can clear my credit card. I disagreed witht he BNM ruling which obolished the 20 days interest free for credit card holders who didn't pay full amount. If I can pay full amount of my purchases, then I won't need a credit card, won't I? The word credit itself already spell it out. It's credit facilities that I want. Now that the 20 days interest free is taken off, there's less reason for people to own a credit card because the terms is no different than cash. If I have a comfortable life and enough money to spend, I won't be needing a credit card.

At the point when we are sufferring a CPI of 7.7% (which I believe it's actually much higher than reported banks are making money out of the poor souls like us, the PEOPLE. With average Malaysian owning at least 3 credit cards or more, it will become more of a burden to them with the BNM ruling. The 2nd finance minister said on the press and TV that he will try to discuss with BNM about this issue and would try to stop this ruling, but until today I haven't see any result or any update of the issue. Someone should remind the 2nd finance minister that the PEOPLE are still waiting for the outcome. At the mean time, I have stop using my credit cards, yup I have 3 credit cards, until I clear all the outstanding balance. It will be easier to said than done but I'm determine to clear at least 1 or 2 credit cards. This a start.

Fighting For Survival

Since the depart of my previous CEO, some of the creeps and the lazy bums are showing their tails and fangs again. These group of colleagues (can I still say colleagues even though I want nothing to do with them?) carried the title managers, executives but don't know their work or their field. Example, a Business Developement Manager no nuts about the job descriptions and the function. He just sit there from 8.30am, drinking his chinese tea and go home 5.30pm sharp. Then there's another one who's a marketing manager, who doesn't know much about marketing etc etc. There are a lot of this type of employees in my company. What to do, is a GLC company. You can only re-deploy them to another department but not terminate them 24 hours or with notice. Furthermore, they will no matter how difficult the situation will hold on to their post and their existance in this company.

Car Lost Incident

I joined lunch with my staff just now and found out about a funny incident that happened to one of my designers. Man and Yus normally walks home from work because they live nearby the office. One day, when going home time, Yus offered to send Man home. However, Yus said Man has to follow him back to his apartment and from there Yus can take his car and send Man. When they reached Yus's apartment carpark, he found out that his car is missing. Panicking, he apologise to Man and told him that his car was missing. Yus called his housemates and all of them said they didn't use the car and didn't know where the car. Beganning to worry, Yus asked the guard at the entrance. The guard didn't see anyone drive out Yus's car and he too was worried. Man felt sorry for Yus and offered to accompany him to the police station to make a report. He called one of the designers in the office to update him of the situation. That designer reply, "tell him no need. He left his car in the office..."

Hearing this, Man and the guard laugh their guts out at Yus's forgetfulness. Now I found someone who is as bad as me. I tend to miss up my appointment date.

Hunter X Hunter

Since I'm in the mood for anime today, this one is highly recommended. It's about a good nature boy, Gon Freecs, who lives on a small island learns that his father who he doesn't remember is an extremely famous man and an excellent hunter. Gon was rised by his aunt and decided to find his father at the age of 12. Gon takes the hunter exam to seek out his amazing father. During the first exam phase, he befriended with 3 other candidates, Kurapica, Leorio, and Killua. Gon and Killua became best friends when Killua found out that Gon doesn't judge his background and accepted him as who he is. The 4 friends learn that there is more to becoming a hunter. The test challenges their strength, ctreativity, focus, mind control and many more. The challenges they must face is beyond their imaginations. After 3 phases of exam, Gon and Killua motivate each other and learned to control their inner power more effectively. The episodes end when they enter Greed Island's competition. Greed Island is a reality game created by Gon's famous father and a few friends. Their journey in Greed Island will be in next season. There's suppose to be HunterXHunter Series 2. I hope I can find it in the market.

Hayate The Combat Butler

Last weekend I was watching a new anime. It's not new in the market but I started my anime collections late. I only bought the first season and I heard that there's a second season. I'll try to find it when I have finished this one. In total, there are 58 episodes. The story is about Hayate Ayasaki, a young boy who has to work since 5 years old to support his gambling parent's habit. When his parent ran away after owing a large sum of money to a loan shark, a rich, young girl, named Nagi saved him. In return Hayate became an accidental butler who serves Nagi Sanzenin who is an heiress with a yen for manga. In the Hayate no Gotoku (aka Hayate the Combat Butler) manga and animation series, Hayate finds himself involved in various escapades and adventures due to Nagi's tendency towards drama. Hayate has been trained since very young age to be familiar with a lot of situation and work. His skills come in handy when serving Nagi and handling her daily demands.

Company Policy

This afternoon our group IT deparment has activate the block again. With the block, there are many sites that I can't acccess during working hours. More like while I'm at the office. This took all the full away from working. I always believe that one should be given the freedom to browse to any url as long as one know how to seperate work and net surfing. With the block, I won't be able to access sites such as facebook, youtube, msn etc in the office. Sites that are deem personal relationship and games are not allow. I wonder how one can learn and update oneself of the current technology when many sites are block. Is this how China and Dubai control their people too?
