Phobia Of ...... (II)

Just interviewed by Glenmark yesterday afternoon at around 4:00P.M in Kuching Grand Continental Hotel, now so relax.....hmm~actually before the interview, I'm quite relax too...... :p. Will keep seeking for a new job while awaiting Glenmark calls for 2nd interview within 2 weeks time. Even if failed, is a good start......

Which girl has less than 3 pairs of shoes on the rack?
Which girl has no un-wear new cloth(es) hanging in the closet?
Which girl has only few jewelry on her make-up desk?
Which girl has no interest in SHOPPING?
a
I guess majority of women like shopping, if not 100%, perhaps at least 99%? That why people (especially the businessmen) said that is easy to earn women's money. Anyway, sometime men should proud with the women, as theirs habit of like buying thing(s) does help to trigger the market and theirs habit of like spending money does help men earns lots of money; no wonder people also said that "a success man always has a good woman behind him!"......[ not 100% true, as age changed ]
a
Girl has a weakness, not able to walk far! So when you date her for a stroll, she probably will ask for a rest after few minutes of walk; however this weakness sometime can turn into an instinct, by which she can spend few hours in a shopping mall (even just a small one), walk nonstop & unweary! While guy is another way round...... :p [ assume that we are not a regular exerciser ]
a
I like shopping, but I hate spend too much in shopping! [ ~SigH~what a conflict statement? ] So girl, if you want me accompany you for a window shopping, I willing to entertain you with a rule not more than 30 minutes, or else you are actually about to challenge my patience :). [ poor Fern, I'm sorry about this; I have to be honest to you, haha......]
a
Can u imagine? A girl can visit a single shopping mall more than 1 time (even 2, 3 or more) in a week time, either with or without a "purchase" purpose; most time they just wish to have a window shopping (just look look around), but later still result in burnt a big whole in the pocket...>Can u imagine?

a
Fortunately, only 3 shopping malls are found in Miri. I just can't imagine how terrible it will be if we are both resident in KL? Well, don't say KL, I think Kuching or Kota Kinabalu is enough to cause me lots of headache.
a
I'm phobia of going out, especially if I know that I can't skip the shopping session and avoid to spend money when going out. Currently, I'm a bit confused, I'm actually phobia of going out, shopping or spend money? No matter what, my final statement whoud be "I like going out, but I hate spend too much money & time in shopping"!

2nd Anniversary vs Valentine Day

14 Feb being a very special day for me & Fern. No, not just simply because of it is Valentine Day......it is the day I'm in a relationship with a special girl for the very 1st time. I admit that, she is not the 1st girl I like, but surely will be the last girl I love......I guess...... [ Hmm~~~this means alot ya...haha :D]

a
W
e are in love for 2 years, since 14 Feb 07. Ya, 14 Feb 09 is our 2nd anniversary day, and we celebrated our 3rd Valentine Day that night in COCO's Cocktail Bar & Restaurant, located at Taman Bulatan, Miri.
a
Well, because of it was Valentine Day, so not much choices on the menu......they only have 2 similar Valentine Day Dinner Sets, which only the main dish is different. So we ordered each one each.
a
The , "Pure Love"
a
First we were served with two complimentary glasses of Red Wine, together with a stalk of Rose , of course is for Fern. 5 minutes later, the "Pure Love" was on the table......err......a food or a table decoration? Well it was a disert, a very thin slice of raw beef with lemon, black pepper, fine salt and mini salad on top. I can't see any black pepper & fine salt, too little added? The salad was without any mayonnaise sauce too! It was tasteless and almost spoiled my appetite!
a
Minestrone Soup, "I'm Yours"
a
15-20 minutes past, "I'm Yours" was served to us in a plate-liked bowl, no should be hat-liked bowl??? What ever lah......it was big, around 30cm in diameters, however the bowl-shaped portion that held the soup was just around 10cm diameters X 2cm deep. So I guess the volumn of soup = a small cup of "Kopi-O" or may be lesser?

It was minestrone soup, which suppose to be an Italian thick vegetables soup, right? This one really disappointed me, no obvious vegetable cubes found, but just few small pieces of ......err......may be onion? The soup not only looked alike the diluted tomato sauce of canned Sardine, taste alike too!

a
Main dish of dinner set 1, "Deep Ocean Secret Love" (Fish Fillet)

Main dish of dinner set 2, "Power of Love" (Chicken)
a
Finally the main dish that we long awaited was appeared in front of us, one was "Deep Ocean Secret Love", which is pan fried dory (fish) fillet topped with creamy garlic sauce and served with alio-alio pasta; another one was "Power of Love", which is crumbed chicken breast deep fried to golden brown topped with special sauce, cheese served with vege salad and potato. Not bad, is delicious!
a
The disert, "Arise My Love"
a
The last, "Arise My Love", the classic Italian pudding was being served. Wow, it was so sweet, as sweet as ours love & memories......so even though overall we not really satisfied with the "Valentine Day Everlasting Love Dinner Set" by COCO's, we did had a great moment & sweet memory in the 3rd Valentine Day (2nd Anniversary Day) celebration!

Phobia Of ...... ( I )

Wishing all 靓仔靓女有情人终成眷属......Happy Valentine Day!
a
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
a
In most cases, no matter how good or great is a thing, please not go too far and don't be too desire on it......it will just lead to the opposite...... [ 适可而止,物极必反 ]

a
The days before I quit......the days I still working in the previous company, firstly I worked 6 + 1/2 days a week (yr 04 - 05), then 6 days a week (yr 06 - 07), and later 5 + 1/2 days a week (yr 08). I always claimed that I have limited of rest time for relaxation and enjoy the life. I wished to have more rest!
a
a
Since I quit from my job position in Dec 08, I have been jobless for almost 1 and the 1/2 months......Great, my wish came true, I really do have an enough rest all these days, even more than enough......well, tell you a truth, I'm not really feeling good with recent situation!
a
Rest moderately does make me feel fully charged & more energetic; however the excessive rest caused me suffer a living hell, I felt even more weary & fatigue! I'm tired of having a tedious & everlasting rest at home......I'm phobia of being over rested and charged! ~sigh~
a
What am I doing all these days? Luckily I stay not far from Fern's house, so can go there on foot everyday for online purposes (either searching new jobs, play with Facebook/Friendster, YM/MSN chatting or checking emails...etc); sometime help her mum doing some light housework, like sweep the floor, tidy up the dried clothes, and look after Fern's 1 year old nephew......he is cute, but naughty!
a
How soon can I escape from the current situation? It would be very much depend on how soon can I find a new job, I think? Hope to get the first call for interview very soon.......dear potential employers, if you see this massage, please don't hesitate to contact me at 013-838xxxx, I'm ready for the 1st interview......and what ever that I will have to undergo......

CNY's Updates

1st Feb 09 @ Sunday ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fern arrived Kuching at 6:45P.M. by AirAsia. After a light dinner at home, went to fetch Evin to meet with Apaw & YH at Kota Padawan. Lter visited an old classmate (Form 5), KC's house. Quite a long time not meet with KC already, almost 9 years since stepped from Secondary School's gate. Well, just knew that she has just married end of yr 08, not been informed.
a
We had a great gathering, recalled lots of sweet memories during the school time, really lots of laughs; we also noticed that we can't remember some old classmates' names when we came across the Form 5 Class's photo.
a
a a
2nd Feb 09 @ Monday ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Brought Fern to have a window shopping in Spring Shopping Mall, located at Simpang Tiga. Well, even it claimed that is the largest shopping mall in Sarawak, for me nothing special; it is shopping paradise for most women who shopping as an interest for sure......
a
a
Most restaurants which in the past only available in Peninsula (West Malaysia) are found in this shopping mall, e.g Big Apple, Fish Market, Kenny Roger, StarBuck, and Sushi King. As what I knew, we mustn't visit these restaurants too often, or it will burnt a hole in your pocket... But sometime, we just can't resist the temptation of "eating" and the habit of excusing our self for one or two time(s) or occasionally......so what to do? GAH loh...why should we hesitating? won't spoiled one lah...... :p
So, ehem~ehem~~~ I bought 2 pieces of donuts at Big Apple, and dined in Sushi King Restaurant loh.

3rd Feb 09 @ Tuesday ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Visited Jong's Crocodile Farm, located at 18th Miles, 1KM from Siburan Village (新生村) and approximately 30KM from Kuching City Centre on the Kuching-Serian Road. The entrace fee is RM10 for adult and RM5 for children below 15 (Sarawakian), while for outsiders (Non-Sarawakian), the entrace fee is RM16 each. So before buy the ticket, the receptionist will ask you to present the identity card to determine the ticket type.

4th Feb 09 @ Wednesday ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Visited the Kuching Boulevard Hypermarket for the 1st time. Not much different from the Miri Boulevard Hypermarket in the structure & look...just the size is bigger I think...? So, it was very obvious that Fern is not in mood to window shopping at here, as nothing special. I guess only one corner did attract her attention, i.e Momoe Concept Store. She bought a handbag here, of course, I'm the one who pay the bill lah...... >$<
