Do you Remember?

Really cannot believe on it. I have been working here for 13 months.

Why 13 months is so special? Why not 12 months which make it a year?

It is because I do remember when I just come into the organization; there are a lot of things that I never came across before.

I do remember there is a so-called “Layman” explained to me professionally, and I simply believe on him.
I do remember that was my first time to actually communicate with people from other ethnics and races, after 20 years of Mandarins-oriented Education.
I do remember I had my lunch alone after the third day, as my senior always prepared her lunchbox.
I do remember I received my first month salary, very suffering because I almost contribute all in loan repayment and computer repair.
I do remember a diligent Malay colleague kept on come to me everyday, and shown his intention to be my friends.
I do remember being scored by client even though you had the stand, but your superior stepped your back instead of helping you.
I do remember a Gang of us stay after work, and did not receive any reward and recognition.
I do remember a Speak-only Guy always complained his unsatisfaction, and sometimes I was thinking am I too.
I do remember 4 of the Gila-but-Pretty female Colleagues, taught me many things regarding work, with the intention to reduce their workload. Now, only One of them still appear in front of my eyes.
I do remember the Lady with knife, previously smile like flower.
I do remember these Langzhais previously very silent one, but now Gila Gang always with Gila Ideas.

I do remember… remember…

Do all of you remember what had been happened…?

Finally is over~

I can't get myself for a sleep tonight. I've been struggling for the work loads and MC prepared for entired week. Whenever i talked with Cheong Hooi, Susan and langzhai members, i never stop complaining about the MC things which is too much additional for me. My feeling changed after the annual dinner.

Honestly, i hope that this annual dinner is not gonna end, because suddenly i get the feeling of what i've never had since few years ago. I feel that i found some true friends here... When i start working for this job, i tell myself, i'm not going to entertain any "friends" as true friends.. Somehow, my thought is wrong... When i step into the dinner ballroom for the preparation and rehearsal, i was like shock ~! I was amazed with the environment that the commitee actually has turned a sampah room to a simple but highclass room. You'll agree with me if you get to see the original look for the ballroom.

At this moment, i feel everyone has done a very good job and they really put a lot of effort to do this... for me, i will never make it ... Moving to 8 p.m, the show has just started, i'm getting nervous, i thought i was very confident and able to control the environment by giving a lot of cheers for the audience, but my mind is empty at this moment, somehow Arlene always stands up to make the situation back to the normal one... Maybe you guys never realise i saying something wrong that day, but for myself, i actually realise i made a lot of mistake and confusing other ppl as well, and this is why you can see "D" has been called to the stage for so many times....haha.

I was confusing, i just tried to throw whatever words i can. At this moment, the pictures infront of my eyes suddenly going slow motion just like the "matrix" effect, i realized Arlene has done a very great job in cheering up the audience, i asked myself, if i looked at her without any ideas to say and she look at me then i'm finished, but she did keep talking.For Susan, she is the key person for the annual dinner and busy for all the time. she dont even have her own time to take her own meal, and she has to pick the food for me... After i see the food, i have no appetite to eat, i feel guilty with no doing a great job. However, Kok Aun and Anwar are also busy around to take care the PA system, they're doing very very well for controlling the PA system too but the system is too sucks and bring a lot of trouble for them...

Everyone is just so hardwork and doing well, but all i have to do is just use my mouth to speak... But, why i can't do it well?? I'm not blaming myself but just have some doubt of why people can do so well, and i screw up some portion, maybe most of the people never realise that... and the story in my mind keep bla bla bla....

Although i've made some mistake on the stage, but after the show, everyone keep encouraging me, i was very touched, like what susan has told me "you've done a very great job" and cheong hooi "Although you're nervous but you have a good experience". Yes, this is a very good experience for me indeed. Nothing is more scarier than demise..

I've learnt some lesson after the Annual dinner, i tell myself "Chee Ern, don't just keep complaining, whenever people assign something for you to do, take it as a chance, FOCUS and PREPARE well just for your own portion. Be happy and cheerful all the time whenever any problems i faced. Don't be scare, because nothing is worst than the end of the day"

Once again, i told myself "Don't ever think of suffer when somebody is working harder and more suffer than you". There's a small portion that i mentioned in my speech, "ya, my friends are very helpful people." without "pressing my heart" to say it.

Lastly, for the talk at starbuck, i feel very very happy, thanks to all my friends and commitees. You guys are crazy...haha (Additional = thanks to my gf as well and sorry that i've not much time to spend with you for the entire week)

Hey, post something lah!! This blog is getting boring already!

Hey It's been a long hiatus since our previous post. We don't seem to be enthusiatic anymore. Do we??

We had gone for 3 badminton sessions so far. Not too bad for the 1st time, while for the 2nd time, bloody Chee Ern and Anwar didn’t turn up and we were informed last minute. So beh siu!! 3rd time pula, we had Tze Yunn not able to make it. Again, very beh siu!! Anyway, we had minimum 8 people turned up at least for each of the sessions. Not too bad lar… This week around, no activity has been planned so far as the courts have been fully reserved. Guys, we’re slow in booking court this week, let’s book it ASAP for the subsequent week. I was thinking if we should organize a hiking on this Sunday morning or in future during our weekend. Please let me know if any of you have any input.

Well, this is one of the pictures taken during Agilent Team Building last Friday in which we have 5 LZ shareholders with Verrine and Wooi Han.

Random pics

Here are the photos taken from my camera, for the heck of it & to kill time at work.

Tze Yunn is obviously in a jovial mood.

LangZhai aka Ah Hooi Ko is thinking of how to earn his next million during the break session.

Kok Aun focussing on serving the drink until one LangZhai decided to help out, and spilt the ice all over the table.=P Who is it ar???

The Godfather's farewell lunch was quite a sumptious one for the LZ gang.

Mai siao siao - this cost Rm1.60 perbowl hor..

*Big Fish* LZs sapu sampai kering sehingga ke tulang tulangya. Somemore got extra half a fish from a *saviour*

Ayam Gajus. Paiseh, shaky hands. Too eager for food liao.

Sayur- this is very tasty esp the gravy.

Didnt snap any photos on the sotong though...too engross in eating liao..

Anyway, the sambal there is best giler!!!

First Activity- Ask For More

Hehe…guys, finally the photo are in. The first activity of Lang Zhai’s gang is finally organized. Everyone is enjoying the game as shown in the photos (right?). So let’s shout out Peksi’s slogan…..‘Ask for more’ !!!

Anwar is showing that he is sure win or only two minutes can settle the opponent?

Showing same gesture with Anwar? Em..... i guess he is showing he only need two seconds instead of two minutes. Hehe.... Gambate!!!

Two of our girl champions are ready to kill their opponent. Be careful ya, guys!!!!

Challenge us? Let you test the power of men…..Whahaha!!!!

Hoho...our president with his.....gf?or wife? For my opinion, their face looks similar. Can we say they got 'fu qi xiang' (look like husband and wife). Hehe…can I translate like this?

We are the best team!!!!! Whahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P/S: All the comments below each photo are just kidding. Don mind, right? Lang zhais.

It's time for Badminton!

Finally we have our 1st event organized for the year 2007. An event, a badminton playing session has been organized by Lang Zhai Gang tomorrow, dated 5th Jan 2007, time 6pm-8pm at N- Park. Court has been reserved; total participants are estimated to be eight for the time being. Even though it’s just a simple session organized ad-hoc, it’s gonna be very meaningful for all langzhais. Photos will be taken and posted in Lang Zhai Blog later, stay tune!

Hopefully, more activities that are meaningful and exciting can be organized more frequently along the way. Perhaps, there will be more people wishing to join our Lang Zhai activities too!
