Ladies and wat?

She was anxious and very detailed. Check the waiting list from time to time. Asking when will be her turn. She reconfirmed that she wants a place facing the window at the smoking area, with a smile on her face.

The waitress told her to be patient again. Might just need around 10 more minutes.
So, she went back to the waiting seats, just next to me.

Suddenly, her handphone rings so, she quickly fished it out from her handbag.
It was her husband, asking where is she.. and most importantly if she manage to get a table. After she told him where she is, her husband appears at the entrance.. walking in with a guest, a Australian, i supposed.

Her husband walks in and straight away put down his huge bag pack and passed it to her wife. And she took it and carried it with both her hands.
He was talking to the Australian, saying that they might need to wait for a while as the restaurant is fulled by the moment. He didn't even bother to introduce his wife to their guest. The Australian was very friendly. He some more asked, "and this is.. erm.. ?" and the woman said "I'm Was.. his wife.."

The husband quickly sit down on the waiting seats, next to me again.
He invites the Australian to sit down too.. but not his wife. He doesn't even bother to see if there is a seat leave for his wife. All he cares was just his own ass.

Three of them were chit chatting while waiting. The husband didn't include the wife in the conversation. She was the one that tried to join in with what they were talking about. Then, the waitress came and asked if they wanna take the table, which is not facing the window. Which mean they cannot enjoy the beautiful nite view outside. The wife politely told the waitress to wait for a moment, as she wants to ask her husband's opinion.

So, she turned back and ask her husband and their guest. Her husband wasn't happy with the idea. He asked his wife to ask how long do they have to wait for the window facing seats. Automatically, the wife replied they have to wait til the people who is currently sitting at that area to finish their foods and pay the bills first. Which in other word, she doesn't know or nobody knows, actually.

Finally, the waitress came and told them tat their table is ready. They were happy.
The husband quickly stand up and follows the waitress to their table. His wife was following behind carrying his back pack. It was heavy, til she said "erm.. ur bag pack" to her husband. Then only he took it from her hands and carry it by himself.

So,
I was sitting there. Witnessing everything.
As I was waiting for a table and Nadiah.
I was thinking.

I personally think the husband was so UNGENTLEMAN !
The more i see it, the more i cannot stand!
The look on his face was so Ego and demanding !

I think he is the one should go to check on the waiting list if he can't wait calmly.
Some more, please lar.. don't ask stupid question can or not ?!
Like asked his wife to ask the waitress, how long do they have to wait for the window facing table..
Luckily, he is a lil smart la..
He din tells his wife to go ask the customers who were eating there, on how much time do they need to finish their foods?
Y he can't offer the seats to their guest and his wife before he sits down?
Y not he, himself carry the bag pack?

I am pissed coz that's not how a man should treat a woman, a wife !
And sad but true, majority of our Malaysia's men are like tat!
I've seen so many lousy men daily. Everywhere.
Gross...

However, I'm lucky enough to see some gentlemen who is still alive in this current world.
They just knew how to treat a woman right.
At least, they open door for the lady to go in first.
Offer the only chair left to the lady and he's ok with the idea of standing at the side.
Using their body language and gestures to let the woman to walk first then only he follows.
Offer a hand to carry what's the woman is holding.
Isn't that nice ?

I don't mean all guys should be perfect. Where women should just shake their legs, waiting for a gentleman to do everything for them.
But i do believe these are just some basics that a man should knows.
It really reflected great on them. U won't lose anything and yet gaining good reputation.
And not giving eyesores to anyone too.
Great!


Me personally, admires all these.
I think gentlemen are so handsome and attractive, despite how his face looks like.
It's really comfortable to be with them.

First Water Rafting experience!

On the 26th July, i went all the way to Kedah for my very 1st WATER RAFTING !!!!!!
And it was AWESOME, u tell u...
Many thanks for Nadiah, my bestie at Bernama TV for ajak me :D
It was all happened at Sungai Sedim, Kulim.

Came along were Su Lin of Radio Bernama and also another 3 friends of Nadiah from Venezuela. They are Carlos, Mina and Alexandra. I hope i got all their name spelled correctly :p
They are all nice ppl too :D


Carlos, me, Su Lin and Mina. We were served with all sorts of local fruits which includes DURIAN, Manggis la.. rambutan la.. and the best part, it's all free and delicious weh... Oh gosh!

And here was were we stayed overnite. These cute lil hut.


Okay... Nadiah and Su Lin posing depan our pondok



All muka baru bangun tido ! Haha...


Ok..here's the thing. We went there for water rafting but Nadiah and I decided to do more than that. So, we jumped off from this bridge rite into the stream below. Well, it was the skipper did it first. And he said, "Cuba lar!"
APa lagi... me terus nak buat ! Some more ajak Nadiah lagi!
And she oso rupa-rupanya giler like me!
And we did it! She jumped rite after me.

It was AWESOME!!! I will nvr forget this forever man...
When i took off from the bridge, my mind was blank and i was expecting myself to touch the water sooner that it was. I was like thinking " ei.. dah sampai ke? Ei.. not yet lar.."

Here's the stream. We have to aim properly weh. Kalo tersasar.. mampus kena batu. Only the below area in the pic, is deep enough for that.

Another activity there was the canopy walk. It's the world longest canopy walk weh.. Hebat!

It was raining giler la.. when we finished our rafting. But we took the walk too. It makes no different lar, memang dah basah kao kao from the rafting pun. So, might as well lar.


CHak!


Taken at the walk

Everyone is ready for the rafting except me :p

Hehe...



Pai Pai Chor...

My Fav Pic!


See No Evil!

Hear No Evil!

Speak No Evil!



Yea, we din bring our cameras along during the water rafting. Coz we don't wanna risk it lar..
We went for Gred 5 water rafting, where everything is possible to break or hilang. Many rafters lost their shoes, bottles, etc. So, the skippers also not encourage us to bring it.
I still remembered the moment i jumped off from the bridge and hit the water.
Also the moment, when me and Nadiah were trapped underneath the raft, after we capsized. Our skipper, Onn got injured from that too. He was trying his best to avoid the raft from turn over. But apparently, the water current was too strong. All of us were shocked to see his lip bleeding. Oh man...
Thanks God that he's Okay. That we are all Okay.
Oh man..
All the memories are still so fresh!
I'm gonna do this AGAIN!
I LOVEEeeee Outdoor activities!
P/s There were a bunch of Singaporeans were there too. They travelled all the way from Singapore for the activity. So, we merged with them for the water rafting thingy. There were 2 guys joined in me and Nadiah's raft. They were very frenly and funny. And i'm bad for not remembering their names. And we tak sempat take pic with them oso. Apatah lagi, contact numbers and so. Alamak :(

Good or Bad?

Everything is damn gud...
Real gud actually!
I dun feel stress nor unhappy. Everyone is nicey.
I'm HAPPY!

BUT just the pay. It's not very bad.. but quite bad and it can be better.
That's the thing, here. Sigh....

I'm learning here, everyday.
But i do want more than this.
Who doesn't want to improve themselves? And and the same time, earn more moolah?

Someone told me to use my benefits as a fresh graduate to look for something better.
Coz she said, it's gud sometimes, that we were treaten like newbies. Where ur superior will gives u directions in everything. Coz they know that u dunno anything. Tat's how we can learn.
I agreed.

I got an offer from somewhere else. A good one, i guessed.
But i'm still thinking...thinking and thinking.
Shall I leave my happy and comfort zone for the sake to learn and earn more?
Will I be happy there?

Everyone told me tat i should go.
Gopi said " Opportunity only knock once"

Shall i open the door?
