Bawang owh Bawang!!
Some might still remember, that a few years back, i posted a pic of onions in the now non-existant moblog of TA.
If i recall it correctly, the audience were supposed to guess how many years the onions were being kept refrigerated.
And now.. a few years later after leaving TA.. i now present to u.. the latest pic of the same onions..
But before u proceed any further.. please wear your hazmat suit for your own protection.. You've been warned.. Muahahahhaa... Enjoy the pics!

:: Yet Another Anugerah Kecemerlangan IPMa ::
Last month i received a phone call from MARA's staff informing me about this Anugerah Kecemerlangan Institut Pengajian Mara (IPMa) Dinner which is to be held on the end of June. I was like owh wut the heck.. its free dinner in Putra World Trade Center (PWTC) in KL i might just go and enjoy it..
A few days later i receive a mail regarding this matter whereby i need to reply to confirm my attendance. After checking on the exact date, then only i realised its during weekdays.. which means i need to go back early from the office coz i need to drive into KL for this function. Not only its because it was held in KL and during weekdays, wut concerns me also is that if its just another boring dinner and whether its worth it for all the troubles.. So i gave a call to the organiser and checked if they will be giving out any sort of momento or stuff during that dinner. And the phone attendee confirmed that they'll hand out gifts but she do not know what is it. So i was like.. okie.. at least i could look forward to receive some stuff.. hehehe..
Fast forward to the present.. i drove to KL at about 645pm and reached PWTC around 730pm.. Alhamdullilah.. the traffic wasnt that jam heading into KL though Kepong route. But anyway, I thought i was late since the schedule mentioned that the program starts at 730.. But as most of Malaysian functions.. it started late... so late that i was getting annoyed and prepared to go back... Well.. the lateness was because this Yg Berhormat just dont know how to manage his time.. damn you!! So the function started at 900pm.. As the performance on stage begins.. dinner was served.. Several students performed some songs which later continued by JayJay which he sang quite a number of tunes from his popular albums back in the 80's when he was still in Lefthanded (i hope i got his band rite) After that followed by the speech by the YB which lasted for almost 45minutes.. i wonder wut he was babbling about out there.. and i just couldnt care less...
Anyway.. the ceremony ended with prize giving.. and somehow they mixed up all the certificates and the gifts (which is mens and ladies watches). So the recipients had to like go around the tables to find their own cert and stuff.. coz nobody was patient enuff to wait till the ceremony really ends to change it coz it was already 11pm...
After i got mine.. i straight away left the arena.. huhuh... Anyway, there wasnt any cheque as i had hoped for (darn! UniKL is much more generous.. coz they gimme thousand bucks for the president award (refer this post : Convo 2007..for more details) huhuhu! The certificate is just normal to me.. but the watch is quite nice.. its a Seiko brand and its a bracelet type of automatic watch.. so no need the hassles of changing the battery and such.. since u know, its automatic.. :P

:: Nonsensical day in UITM::
Friday 1900hrs : while at work :
i was doing the cognos application promotion and suddenly the buzzer on my phone was activated..
owh.. its mucuk who's calling..
mucuk : are u working tomoro?
me: nope
mucuk : are u going anywhere tomoro?
me : nope.. why? anything wrong?
mucuk : (with her sad and manja voice) i need sumbody to go uitm to help me register for my program coz i need to go puchong.. can u help?
me : err.. bolehkut... should be no problem (but deep down my brain...while thinking of that huge an unknown uitm place. i tell myself need to get sumbody to help.. or else i'll be lost) .. Yeap.. boleh boleh. (reassuring her thats its fine..lol)
Friday 2350hrs : at home and not yet online as usual..
suddenly a text from mucuk comes in.. and asking me wut i'm doing.. my guess is that she must've tried finding me in YM to tell about tomoro's plan but i wasnt there.. after a few text replying.. i decided to giv her a call.. but she's asleep already.. owh well.. its tomoro then only i'll talk to her..
Saturday 0010hrs : at home and finally online
after 20minutes of trying.. i managed to get this stupid machine to boot into windows..
yeah.. i could've saved the troubles of using my other machine but this one hav the largest screen.. hehe..
but anyway.. the plan to get somebody showing me the way inside uitm started.
well.. based on the timing which i'm guessing would be around 8am.. so only a few person i think i can find..
coz u know.. not everybody would want to wake up in the wee hours just to show u where i'm suppose to go inside uitm.. so 1st choice.. fazil.. who was in uitm previously..
me: oits fazil.. can help me ar.. we go to uitm tomoro and register master program
me: ur not on standby issit tomoro? please la weiii
fazil : wut? since when u register?
me : not me lah.. my fren.. she got emergency stuff to attend.. i'm registering for her..
fazil : ahh. dowan.. go fly kite (**its chinese term for go away/goto hell and such**)
me : fine!!
darn.. fazil dont want to go.. and hapiz y is not around.. so only choice.. mucuk's sister..
me : oits.
me : u know uitm? can help me teman me go there tomoro?
ash : err... nope.. dont know... why go there?
me : coz ur sis is registering? dont u know?
ash : wut time? i wake up at 11 tomoro.. huhu
me : alamak.. then its ok lah.. coz i'm going there at 8 i think. havent confirm yet.. ur sis dah tido and havent let me know the details yet..
ash.. : owh really?
me : its ok.. but i'm gonna need ur help to take back the forms or stuff once i register tomoro..can?
ash : sure.. as long as before i go kenduri..
me : aite.. thanks..
well... i guess thats all the people i had that i can asked..
then fast forward to the nex few hours..
Saturday 0500hrs
suddenly its not my alarm is ringing but the phone itself wakes me up..
apparently there's problem with the application on one of the servers so... back to work then..
while was working with half asleep eyes.. suddenly mucuk's text came in.. asking me to wake up..
i was like.. owh shit.. its 640am already.. so i replied to her ok without her even knowing that i've woken up before she did.. then after i had my bath she text me again.. asking me directions of the place in puchong..
owh well.. googleearth can help i tell myself.. huhuu.. (** me not familiar with puchong as well laa.. aiyoh)
while searching for the place.. i was still trying to figure out the earlier problem.. which is the application.. until suddenly i realized its already 735am... darn!!!
so i picked up my stuff and drove like mad to shah alam to get the forms from mucuk.. hehe.. this is the 1st time this car being "rempit" to more than 150km/h...
reached shah alam almost 8am.. and saw her wearing a chilly red shirt with a not so happy face..
i wanted to say sorry.. but i think it wont change the fact that i was late..
so she gav me the documents i need and off she went to puchong.. while i sat there and figure out where i need to go..
then i went to sec2 7eleven to photostat some of her stuff.. but the 7e dun hav that service.. darn!
walk thru the area and found a shop just barely open.. good!
coming back from the shop.. i saw my front tyre punctured.. damn! wut an unlucky day..
took out the tools.. and jacked up the car.. then only realized i dont hav a screwdriver to open up the lugs cover on the rim..double damn!!! so i had to bring the car down again.. and go find a screwdriver!!
after 20 minutes or so.. managed to get the freaking tyre change. So i quickly went to uitm and try to get the registration done..
Saturday 0920hrs : Uitm.. Found the DSB!!
Waited in a long queue for sometime bfore i was let in..
there wasnt a proper usher to tell us where i should go or wut i should do 1st.. so off i went to the nearest counter..
but then the officer told me that i need to submit some medical forms and xray as proof.. i was like huh? i dont hav all those.. can i come back later?
So the next one i went is to the bursary.. though i could fill up the bursary part in the form 1st..
but the guy told me.. owh.. u've paid huh? no need to come here.. straight go to ISIS..
huh? ISIS? wuts that????
so he point me to a direction showing a GPes.. huh? is that where i should go? and he nodded.. owh well...
Went to that counter and was requested to giv a borang ikrar pelajar.. again.. i dont hav that either..
i was like... hmmmmm.... something is wrong here.. how come i dont hav much forms with me..
then the guy at the ISIS told me i just need to giv the ikrar form and we can proceed..
so i hurriedly call mucuk few times.. but it was either cannot get thru or RNA (ring no answer)..
Decided to call her sis, ash.. as my last resort..
called her a few times.. but RNA.. hmm.. either she's alseep or the phone is not with her..
so i called the house phone.. and her dad picks up..
ash's dad : hello
me : errk...!! assalamualaikum encik (huhu! suddenly i became so scared talking to this guy)
ash's dad : nak carik sapa ni?
me : boleh cakap dengan ash.... eh..er.. ( wondering wuts her actual name..) eh eh.. nak cakap dgn asliza..
ash's dad : asliza? ke azlinda?
me: asliza encik...
ash's dad : kamu ni sapa.. dari mana ni?
me : huh? dari mana? maksud encik? (now i'm confused.. is he asking me from which area? or where i was born? or wut??)
me : saye feisal.. kawan die dari kepong..
ash's dad : azliza takde..
me : owh ok.. trima kasih encik..
alamak... dah kuar ke?!! then after a while i called her mobile again.. this time she answered.. good!
i guess her dad mistaken me of finding either azlinda or asliza... .(err... sorry encik Saadon)
but anyway..looks like she's still asleep. so i asked her if she could go and find the forms i needed.
i sensed there's a bit of reluctance in her coz she was still asleep.. but sorry.. i really need it.. or else i cant do the registration.. then i asked her if its ok if i go to the house and get the stuff.. but she was adamant that she'll drop by uitm and asked me to wait..
Well..
to cut the story short..
waited half and hour before Ash's reached the place.. thank god!! finally she's here..
took all the stuff and went back to the hall for registration..
submitted the bursary forms together with the needed ikrar thingy..
i was again rejected.. this time.. the woman insist of me going to the faculty counter and get their approval 1st!!!
WTF!!! so politely i said.. ok.. thanks... (while at the same time i was cursing inside my brain.. muahahhaha)
Went to the faculty counter..
and they rejected me registration becoz they want the student itself to come and do it..
tried to negotiate but she wouldnt budge.. darn!!
I even asked her about the curriculum for that semester yet she wouldnt even wanna talk about it..
so ok i said.. but can u gimme the curriculum list at least? so that mucuk can do a pre-plan on wut she wants to take this semester i said? With an annoying face.. she gave me the list reluctantly.. huhu..
As i was about to exit the hall..
mucuk called.. and she was furious that i dragged her sis along..
we had and argument.. bout the whole registration thing and wuts not.. and somehow the friendship is over..
huh? am i missing something here?
hmm.. lin.. i just wanted to say.. i'm sorry
i was doing the cognos application promotion and suddenly the buzzer on my phone was activated..
owh.. its mucuk who's calling..
mucuk : are u working tomoro?

:: Knight Rider @ KiddoRider ::
On May 27, 2008, marked a milestone on my life history which is I finally managed to get a car of my own..
Basically i was overjoyed and not mentioning speechless when i got to drive it home after waiting for like 3 months since the day i made the booking...
But before i continue with the story of this "historical moment" of mine, i'll do a recap of what i had to endure before i actually owned this piece of moving metal. Basically it started since like forever i had been wanting a car, but none of my parents can afford to buy me one.. Hence i've been a faithful bicylist cum public transport user :) So after a few months of saving up the dough for downpayment, i called up my dad and asked him to accompany me to do the bookings (Owh yes, my dad is the perfect companion in dealing all these kind of process and procedures.. somehow he just knows everything thats needed to know. For that i really thank you Abah). So off we went to the Damansara Mutiara Proton Edar to book my new knight rider. I actually ordered a black colored standard spec (m-line) model, but due to no stock available after 2 months of waiting, the sale agent called me up one day and asked me if i were to change to the H-line which is more expensiv cause it comes it airbags and ABS. (Note to Proton : shouldn't these safety stuffs be compulsory and standardize? hmmm....) To cut this lame story short, i managed to secured a Perlis registered plate number cause i like the "R" as starting alphabet and not forgetting Perlis's plate still comes with 2 letters only. hehehhee
So anyway, back to the present... I took a half day off from work to pick up the knight rider. Lin Mucuk however had asked if she could join me during the car delivery and also take her to UiTM to return her convocation robe which she had used a day earlier on her Convocation day (PS : Congrats Dear for your convocation, sorry if i didnt remember to wish u earlier :D ) So after finishing up my work off i went to pick her up at her huge house that i've never being invited to go in :P . Sent her to the overly crowded UiTM (it was the convo week, so go figure) then we had lunch after meeting with abah at the Mobil Station. Its been a few years since abah had last seen Lin and he was shocked to see her again.. And the thing that really captured my attention was, and i quote " Naper Lin nampak cam dah kecik??" Well, after having lunch, we went to the dealership, did a not quite 50 points (suppose to be 50 in the form) of inspection before the dealer can deliver me the keys to my black piece of hansome looking huge metal.
So there it is.. one of my dream had come true... after getting the car, we actually had to drove back to abah's place cause Lin left her keys inside the old NiteRider huhuhu... before we went back to Shah Alam and had Nan Garlic for dinner.. Phew!!! Wut a day!
Again.. i thank Lin and Abah for all their help and support during my car-less days till now :)
