Expectations, lots of them

Things that keeps us moving, expectation. You would not work very hard, if you know there is no future in your job. Or you wouldn't pursue somebody that did not meet your expectations right?

Well, people expects a lot from me, at least at work. I was away for quite some time, did not really attend to my day to day task and people expect me to solve all the problems the moment I swipe my pass in first thing this morning. Am taking it one thing at a time. Its just hard and I have to suck it. But since I had this clip below, my mood can never be destroyed :)

There are two of my favorites in it, Kris Allen (of course) and also Matt Giraud :)

Back on expectation, I actually expects a lot from people, not profesionally but more of personal level. I was on course last week, with a colleague. Well, we were in a place where most of the things are foreign to us, be it the food, way people talk, and a bunch of other stuffs. And this person just keep on complaining on every single thing. I seriously don't like whiners, BIG time!! Okay the first two days I put up with all the complaints but I got really wear down on third day.

I expect people to be a little bit more persistent to changes, and not to dwell on the small little petty things. Complainers, out of my way!!! I need more positive vibes around me. Not saying that you have to be optimistic all the time, because sometime it just doesn't make sense, but be reasonable. Don't complain unless it is rightly to do so. And instead of just complaining, why not do something about it.

How about that for a change?

Me in Sydney

Its 19:37 on my laptop clock, but the local time is actually +3 hours. Its my second trip to Sydney ;) First time was in Dec 07, for a meeting in Geelong and I fork out my own money to travel to Sydney and meet with my schoolmates, Siti. This time I have the opportunity of participating on a course here ;) All expense paid trip, but its a pity that I could not stay longer and discover more of the city.

This time, the journey has been interesting right from the beginning. I've bumped into Eric Casa Impian at the lift to Departure floor in KLIA. Then after checked in, I headed straight to MAS Lounge ;)..hehehe..since I'm flying on Business Class, hence the priviliged of the facilities. I was wondering around the lounge to get a good sit, where I can watch TV without many people around me. Found one, although the reception not so clear, it is still bearable. Asked one of the waiter to flip to any channel that air football, little did I know it was the Man U and Liverpool derby LIVE!!!

So there is me, a Malay lady clad in tudung and watching a football game alone ;) I have a peek at the buffet counter and guess who I spotted, Chef Wan!!! Of course, no photos taken as I was too occupied filling my stomach and eyeing the game. Later on I realised a lady sat on my back and seems like she is a Liverpool fan!! We said hi to each other and from our small talk we were not only rivals in football favorites, we rivals in business too !! Apparently she's with Petronas and going back to where she is based, London..oh how nice..

Travel on business class is a luxury!! No complaint at all. I finished watching Slumdog Millionaire before dozing off to sleep. Next thing I know is we are already on Sydney's air space ready to land. In this time of recession I am blessed to have been given the opportunity to travel and attend courses overseas. My only complaint is in this part of Sydney, Parramatta, no halal food available, hence the next best thing is vegetarian food and seafood. Two days in a row I have been eating pasta, I am becoming Italian..hehehe...

The course is going well for first day and the best part is, there will be TEST at the end of the week and passing mark is freaking minimum 80!!!

p/s: Man U lost 1-4 and I need all the luck that I can get for the TEST!!!

AI S8

This post would be more of 'keduniaan' --> 'wordly'. I am loving American Idol!!! I have been following quite religiously since the audition and for this season I think the guys rock!!! As I am typing, still listening over and over again to Kris Allen's Man in the Mirror. I think he's the underdog. No bet that there are others like Goakey, Lambert and Matt Giuradi. Man, they really can work the stage.

Not to mentioned, there is this one guy Von Smith, he crumbles to pressure during wildcard show, but I still like him. The girls are so-so this time around. But I must admit, they are all good ;) I am so loving it!!!

I wish I am 2 or 3 or more

If only I can have more Azita, Azita1 to pack things during moving the house, Azita2 to organise other stuffs such as hiring the movers, astro dish locaters, people to clean the house, Azita3 to unpack those things at the new house....and best of all Azita4 to go to work on Monday morning without feeling tired at all..oohh.. but that's not it. Azita4 is handling workshop the whole week, so will be away from her desk, and will desperately need Azita5 to stand in and monitor the plant condition. Which in this case is going haywire...most of the product offspec and the fact that there is no up to 5 Azitas makes life a living hell and work as well.

I am swamped, filled to the top and one particular person, the product scheduler that LOVESS to harass me, everything must put a blame to somebody, and I was always the scapegoat. She the superwoman always bitching about me to other people about how bad am I at my work, so on and so forth.. Well you know what? She can bitch for all she wants, and I don't even care. Nobody would understand my workload unless they are in my shoes. To hell with her badmouthing me, I couldn't care less so f**k off!!

p/s: after moving to new house, I realise I need more stuffs....I wanna go Ikea!!! but I'm broke :(
