Hobby 30 October 2010

Seriously, I need to redefine what is my hobby other than just keep stay in the room and facing my laptop. After graduate, I never take sport anymore. Work is occupying majority of the time, however I still hope that I can know more new friends, at least got some healthy activities during the weekend. Working life is different with study life, we are hard to get a new friend to hang out like what we did it crazy in school life. Where can I get more friends? By social and join club?

No time is no an excuse for me because most of the time I feel tire and don’t think that want to find some outdoor activity during the weekend. Stay in room and take a good rest without thinking too much. Now I need to walk out from the room. I know it is not easy as I’m alone. Dinner outside alone can be quite very embarrass once a lot of people are looking for the seat and I’m the only one occupying the whole table. Sometimes eager for some food, but the portion is not really friendly to me since I cannot finish it alone.  

Haha, like very pity only, but I’m trying to adapt myself to it. Just come back from mall to buy some simple food to keep in the room. After feel months, I can feel that I start to have some aunty syndrome- buy a lot to keep when the price is marking down. Stuff with the label of ‘discount’ will most be my first priority to pick it up.

Lastly, to some special in mind, you smile because u knew. Ganbate.

Oh ya, today no highlight for working stuff… :P next week highlight for whole blog.. wakaka.

Job-hunting in progress 24 October 2010

This week onwards I have start my job hunting. Maybe all of you all think that is that no more turn for my decision had been made? My answer is: Yes, but I not rush to escape immediately unless got something trigger me to resign straight away without a good backup plan. For the meantime, ‘something that I had mentioned is such as my colleagues resign, new issue that makes me feel uncomfortable. 

Until here I know that a lot of you will start to think of why I give up so early? Strawberry generation… bla3. This job is not suitable to me, maybe I cannot withstand with the work pressure that I need to always stand by even midnight or weekend for decision making. Haha, a lot more reason I can gave, but don’t want to tell you, because I know all people hate listen to it. :P

I had no idea what kind of job I need to find for this time, the constraint for me is the location of the company since I cannot go too far with my little motorbike, unless I move house. This is not a quick change that I can make, at least take me 2 months time for me to settle my current house moving out notice (not know what to call for that, correct me :P). So, mostly I will stay until early of next year, if no ‘something’ happened.

Some company that I’m targeting for now, such as IME (CAD CAM design software company), Dutch Lady, BAT and Sime Darby. Still wonder why I still targeting MNC, I also wonder why, haha. The reason is because all these companies are near to my current location, just few kilometer for my house. Just put a little hope for me so that I can go interview easy with my kapchai.. :P

Bless for me for my day. enjoy ^^

Achievement after graduate 101010 Sunday

We had gathering in 1 Utama yesterday, total 5 of us attended this gathering. We plan to have a gathering every month with our coursemates which work or study in this area. Gathering, of course we have chat a lot and update the current life after we graduate for nearly 4 months. In summary, total got 3 of our members chose for further study, the rest are all working in different field; 5 in central area, 4 in Singapore, 3 in Penang, 1 in JB. 

Just know that few of us already change their job in within 2 months they spend in the company. I not know the reason they change their job, and most of the reason is they want to get the higher pay. Some work in Penang already shift to Singapore, and I know the rest will also slowing shift to there too due to the currency rate different. Some even can get more that the amount my company paid me, and again they are in SGD.

Now I realize that it is quite difficult for me to save money in PJ due to the expenses is too high compare to other area. My friends rent a house that got 3 rooms, the rental is only 300 bucks per months (somewhere in Shah Alam and Klang area). Some becomes home tutor for 2 kids, 60 bucks per hour. Some work in Shah Alam there, remuneration and grow in the company is much more better than me, and they told me that is an easy job and you can go back everyday sharp in 5.30pm. Some told me they work late, but they can claim all the OT … these few statement keep on flash in my mind, maybe I’m currently in the slow moving lane? Why I need to work late but cannot claim the OT? And it take my chances for being a home tutor too at night after work…  but maybe I’m not the ambitious one.. blek.

Instead of keep asking why, I need rather adjust back my current moving lane, define back what is the thing that is important to me. I easily brain washed by other individual, from colleagues and friends around me as well. These will all make me to hesitate and confuse, wander left and right, thinking of change job, change working area, to speed up myself to save more money. Talk is super easy, but hard to implement. I know that I need to be firm and get all the thing stable first before I can make changes on it. Stay firm and do my best in the current position, this job maybe cannot secure me for a good future, but I know that there are a lot of other thing that I can learn through it, keep learning everyday, new challenges, and look back, I really can see a significant changes and improvement I done and I gain week by week. Haha, why I describe my current company so badly, come on wei, we are MNC leh, one of the dream company for fresh graduate.

Hi , good day Ah Huam, gambate.

What is the plan recently? 2 October 2010

I had leaved out my blog for 2 weeks, since I went back hometown last weekend. Anyway, that is a very nice 2 days spend and I plan to go back once a month, to recharge back everything and sure I miss everything in my hometown, my family, friends and everything. Thanks for my friends that always come out and making fun around together, even sometimes, it is quite lame, but we always enjoy the ‘lame’.this blog nothing related with these pictures, just I like these pictures captured by ES, nice snap.

This time went back I get to know that my cousin going to marry already. This cousin is 4 years old older than me, and he got his plan for marry once he step out from university. He work in Singapore for 4 years plus, and seem getting rich, manage to get a new house in SP that cost 300+ K, expenses for honeymoon cost about 20K to Europe… Haha, good job and I will try to attend the wedding in this month very soon.

Recently start to think of a lot of thing, other than working, need start to plan for my own financial planning. Almost 3 months I had been here, I plan that I can save about 50% of my monthly income. 50% is quite high, but this is not impossible for me to do that, because for now I didn’t have much commitment.

Not how much you can earn, but how much you can save. If I can work in SP, sure I will save a lot… :PQE, all girls, my name is Quota

me and our technicians

Last week got a lot of activities in the company, colleagues’ birthday, farewell for colleague. The turnover in my department is high, and new colleagues will join us very soon too, to fight over the huge workload and stress. Anyway, bon vogaye and enjoy your new working life in the new company. :)Hari Raya Potluck, thanks for the very nice Malay traditional food.
