I walked to the office today, wonder if I would get another encounter, but to be on a safe side I said my 'I Believe' prayer just incase. Nothing happened I think... work was hectic today had to meet Sasi the Don, Big guy, he wants us to do a portal for me, he has come up with figures which are a bit doubtfull. Hey but what are bussiness without risk. Lenny has already taken off for Deepavali so its going to be a one man show.

It seems its going to be a rainy Deepavali and Raya. I dont think I can remember whe we had a weather like this. I've been pushing my luck, I've been getting wet in the rain. I'm definately gonna come down with something soon... i already can feel it

Diary: 8 November 2004

I had a ghostly encounter tis morning. I came in the office at 6.30 in the morning, I taught I would spend some time at the gym before I start my work. When I reached my floor I already had a fear in my heart, so I knew something wasn't right I decided to look down and just walk straight to my office door. I honestly did feel something was behind me as I walked but I just brushed it off. Once infront of my office door I took out my keys, the fear in me was building up. All of a sudden I heard something was running towards me, I heard footsteps, I knew what it was so I panicked to get the key in the whole but I wasn't able too. The sound was coming close I practically wanted to scream to I turn my head around and noticed that nothing was there. I calmed myself got the key in and went in my office. I had to sit for a while to bring myself together.

I still decided to go to the gym, no ghost aint gonna bring me down. I had a as nice time there, lot of Malay folk was at the gym, I assumed at the time of puasa they would conserve their energy but I guess not. My Monday was usual with my reports to be done. Raya is so near, lots of people were leaving back to the hometown. KL is gonna be all mine.. hahaha. I told Shelly and my GM about by brush with 'IT' today but he didn't want to believe it. I didn't want to stay late so I left the office at about 8p.m.

My body was already sore, after the workout, I didn't really feel it at work but after a bath and a sit down my body just sank into me... I just could feel the sores sting. I need a massage. I need to find a new one, somewhere nearer than Mont Kiara. I can hear my body screaming to be kneaded by some musses

Diary:Weekend Sum Up

Hey guys haveen too lazy to blog over the weekend so this is a sum up of what happened. Friday was a wonderful day, my day swept through with meetings after meetings. I was to go to Phileo to check on there office on a small matter. I decided to meet my cousin for dinner at Phileo Damansara. We went to chills. Its currently under a new management. The food was wonderful, my recommendation is Seven Haven, we too had a ship like pizza with EVERYTHING on it.

Saturday was like any other day, I woke at 8 all hungry wanting my bfast but as usual there was nothing there. So I hanged at home till noon. I visted Peggy's house, lots of changes has happened. Firstly, the house is nicely painted and decorated now... Uncle must be free. Ah Yee has blossom into a woman, she is as tall as me. Kids do grow up fast. Sigh.... After Peggy's I headed to Sg Wang where I met Melman for lunch. I was shopping for a new watch and I did get one... No not a swatch, I'm not in liberty to say because then some people will think I'm too rich.

I woke up early on Sunday, 7 a.m.. I attended mass at St John's. I sat behind Priscilla, I could see she was abit off. I wonder why. I wanted to say Hi after mass but I had to rush myself to the gym. Got to tone the body after all that bukak puasa dinners. I spent a long 1 1/2 hours burning myself down. Drill baby, drill... hahahaha

We also did a 'chase' for those who doesn't know please ask me... hehehe But it sad to think that this will end after March...

Diary: 3rd November 2004

Work has been splendid this week, as I went to lunch today I stopped by at Swatch and notice a a watch under the Irony series I might get it tommorow, it was cheap and under sale better make the best of it. Pan Pacific bukak Puasa has been wonderfull experence, the food was excellent. It had all the essence of a raya buffet, they had Rendang Tok (My Fav), Lemang, ayam masak merah, and Caramel pudding. They also had crabs, squid and all but I was just too busyt with my rendang tok...

Entertaining guest is such a fun fake deal. Celcom staff was just only intrested in pigging out the food and leaving right after that. I was introduced around and my name card were given out, all such a fake bunch smilling and all.

Diary: 4th November 2004

Apparently I'm the flavour of the month, my bosses wants to introduce me to a lot of clients, showing me off. I better not let this go to my head. One of my huh hush projects is to be completed tommorow, testing will be done personally by me. 5 more to release wait for it guys.

I dont want to go back home today, I think I'll stay back in the office and just hang. Funnt isn't it when you feel more comfortable at work than at home. Tommorows Friday, Yippeee... Cleo is having their 9th Birthday Bash tommorow at Zock and I have an invite. I'm definately not goin. Anybody one's it please give me a call i hear they have a very good door gift RM200 per door gift.

Diary: 1st November 2004

Its already the 1st, I already can feel the Christmas spirit in me growing. Just the other day Alex told me he could already feel it. Monday blues hit me hard, I dragged my feet to work and back. I called Priscilla, she was ok. She sounded fine, she has forgiven me. Its nice to know.

Diary: 2nd November 2004

Work was wonderful today with half of my work time cut down because there was no In ternet. I took a long lunch break and bought some toiletries and Blizard. Yum Yum. I went for Maxis bukak puasa dinner at JW Marriot, it was sucha let down compared to last year. The food was just passable. Although that didn't stop me from pisgging myself down. Tommorow I head to Pan Pacific to enetertain Celcom and myself... hehehehe

Diary: 31 October 2004

Ahh.. Sunday, Mans Day of rest. My parents woke me up to go to church. I woke up and what i did was i went to the market to buy wan tan mee... hahhaha. Had a nice big breakfast, I lazed myself infront of the TV and I dozed of till 2. I woke up on the couch yawning when i noticed that they were showing Simpsons. I was infront of the tv till 9.pm watching my Simpson marathon. I took my bath had a quick dinner and di d my ironing. I was wathching ghost stories till 10 ish and I was off to bed. What a lazy Sunday....

Diary: 30 October 2004

I had a productive day. I woke up at about 8 in the morning and I blasted my Usher album in the house. Only the three boys of us were in the house. I sms-ed Melman if he wanted to go to Sg Wang, I had to make amends for the day before for blowing him away. I had wonderful time with Melman and Lisa we walked around Sg Wang and Bintang walk area. Man it’s been a long time since I’ve been there.


I took liberty of the Isetan special IMC sale and got myself a Pair of Santa Barbara shoes for work. We had lunch at Planet Hollywood; the menu has changed a bit lame now, not up to Chilies standards. I had a club sandwich; Mel had ‘ayam perchik’. We decided to go to One Utama to catch a movie.

We reached One Utama and we immediately went to the cinema, we bought tickets for the Grudge (Ju-on) and Shark’s Tale. The Grudge did not disappoint me. It had all the works of a good horror movie. The script writing was simple yet strong. I give you all my recommendation to see it. Shark’s Tale on the other hand fell short from my expectation, a very bad script, for those planning to see it please do catch it on the VCD (Pirate).

During my time in One Utama Mel and I visited these Hong Kong theme restaurants. If you have noticed these concept restaurant has been growing in KL. Their weird menu and drinks are a attraction to the customers, Chinese customers mainly. I was the only Indian there; as I was going through the menu I came a across this drink Boiled coke with ginger. Who does that?

I’ve been searching for a nice steel watch; does anybody know where can I get one? All the design is so huge these days. Do you think Christina Aguilera is banking on Britney’s downfall? I love the ‘Tilt your head’ with Nelly its so 70’s.

Diary: 29 October 2004

Its a Friday... a Friday casual day at work with nothing to worry, its the end of the week and besides it Pay day. Boy was I wrong, everything when hectic right after luch, good luch though yummy banana leaf rice with chicken varuval, Yum Yum. All of my WAP serviceswere down and needed to be rectified, my designers had addictional advert work to finish due to the Hari Raya rush.

Just to please myself I went to Tower Records and got myself a couple of CD's. I got the who series of Poetic Ammo so ow I can go to bed with peace. For those who took my cd and didn't give back please keep it to yourself. Saya halalkan makan minum bersama CD Poectic Ammo saya u sekali.... hahahahaha. But my best buy would be Usher's Special Editional Confessional CD. I seem to relate to the song Burn. The whole album has an RnB feel that would just breeze u all through the day. Makes you feel all happy and romantic inside. Lets see if i can slip the C resit in company claims.

I hear Shari was in KLCC today. If your reading this Shari, you should have called we could have had a drin at the car park... u tak puasa kan... hehehehe. Just kidding

Pay is still not in yet.... Damm u COMPANY !!!! Kena tunggu sampai Monday lah.

Diary: 28 October 2004

Everyone in the office was very casual today, I guess because of the Bukak Puasa Dinner tonight, it was nothing greatr same stuff that you would get in the hawker fest, I enyoed my sate and roasted lamb. Both very juicy. I had many scoops of ice-cream, the deserts were better than the main dishes. I was having fun with all the guys laughing our heads off. I've been appointed again to lead the company trip. I've got help this time, so i guess it woulnt be hard.

I have a problem, I cant say 'NO' to frens. whenever they ask for anything 'Yes' always slips in, which always leaves me in a predicament. Isetan sales starts today and pay is not in. I will definatekly have a quite weekend, I plan to wacth Wicker Park, romantic movie I think....

Short Story: The Lady who Shed No Tear

I already knew it was going to be a long weekend when I got a call from my day saying my uncle was terribly ill. Visiting him last week in the hospital already gave me an idea they he was quite bad but not death... Not this fast actually. My uncle was fighting cancer, a battle which brought my aunt together without her choice.

The man I hear had a difficult childhood from the beginning. His dad was a drunk, mum was beaten up. So naturally the behavior would have been fostered in him. He worked his way through school and worked at the port for a shipping company. He was rough from nature, they way he spoke and how his body was rough.
My uncle married a teacher and had a beautiful daughter. He was a spiteful man when he married her. He moved on to telecommunication firm and climbed the corporate ladder. My uncle believed in black magic. He used it for personal gain, money magnetism and to hurt others was his motive. Money was pouring in and he was always flying around Sarawak was his favorite destination.

Their marriage was a facade to everybody. He treated her like a maid and she played along. The communication between them was broken. She did what a wife should do cook, wash, iron. Both of them slept on separate beds. The love was not there. I always wondered why my aunt really stuck to him. An easy divorce Would have been easy. Why didn't she take the easy way, the generation of today seems to being doing that. It is not the right thing but why go through it all. I think it was because of her daughter she stuck into it.

I received the 'the call' about 10a.m.. My uncle had passed away, he leaves behind a wife and a daughter. Two strong people who will build a thick facade to show that the event will not hurt them. I would like to believe that they have soft yolk inside of them and they are hurting for their lost but from a third eyes view I see nothing.

Diary: 27 October 2004

Today everything swept me by like a breeze. I finished work at 6p.m. What a miracle? Had a hot dinner and I was on watching TV, I like ED the program's, he so funny. I must say the crew has corky ways in doing things and I love the RM10 bet he has with his best friend. It keeps the relationship alive.

I was reading CLEO yesterday night, Yes I do read Cleo it has many interesting articles in it, its much better than men's magazine just emphasize on boobies, slender bodies and one liners on gals. The magazines speak of how to better yourself, what a woman thinks (good for the guys who has no clue), and emotional stuff. I do love men's magazine This just additional reading material.

I was reading this 5 part article, the 1st part of the article talk about the Friends and values. Which would u hold on too. I have always been in this predicament, either you follow your friend or you be left out. According to the articles values you have are yours and belong to you only. Its hard decision one has to make but apparently if you don't hold on to your values your conscience will start to slip.. Tomorrow I will read about Friends or Love partner... Another predicament all of us have been in.

Diary: 26 October 2004

I love my work, although taxing I just love it. Why I like it cause I get to do whatever I want, whenever I want it. I am in power, super-visioned power anyway, I conducted an interview yesterday, the candidate was only 23, Chinese long black hair. Damm boy was I attracted to her but being in my corporate mode I did the interview. I had another shock to yesterday, a Malay girl was talking dirty to me on MSN, She sits just across me. It came to an extent she took of her b** just to prove a point... Its getting hot in here

All men want a Malay gals, we've discussed this before between the guys, the only thing stopping us is "the rule". I went shoe shopping yesterday with Lenny, Hush Puppies is closed due to renovation, and other places the design made my feet look like clown shoes, big and long. Men shoes are so expensive now, why women shoes are so cheap, this is why women have at least 3 pairs in their rack. Believe it or not My Mum have 6 pairs, that's not counting sneakers.

My dad is suffering from male menopause (Its true, men do through it, read it readers digest). Mood swings flying, I so inch away to open a can of whoop ass with my dad, but I always take the peaceful road, I just go to bed. Problems always flies away after a good sleep, small problems anyway.

Diary: 25 October 2004

I couldn't sleep the night through I was awake thinking about things, I'm back to square one. Life seems to be circle I cant seem to break out of it. Work was fairly normal although being Monday I managed to get away at 6.30. I went to Isetan to get a couple of slacks as some of mine have been a victim of my mom's house renovation. After buying my stuff I noticed that the Sales starts on the 29th... damm

Mel wasn't too please to hear about my breakup with Pris. I did tell him that it was all my fault and that I was suffering from the 'Chandler Syndrome' He never understood. I need to talk to someone, someone I can clear my head. There is a lot bottled up in me. Melman is not it. My closes friends are no more.

Priscilla sent me an email today telling me what it was in her heart. I have hurt her unintentionally, I couldn't express what I really felt in my reply but she has already assumed the worse about me. I don't blame her....

I sprained my ankle again... damm. It hurts like hell, having trouble walking. And tomorrow I need to go pant for a meeting. Its that time of the year again for me to put on weight with free 'Buka Puasa' Roadtrip around KL. My quest begins this Thursday at Eastin, company sponser.

Diary: 24 October 2004

I went out with Mel on Saturday night, It was Thai Club. I honestly didn't miss the scene same songs same people but I did meet yoges. Fat already... nolah ada isi. I also found out Peggy (God Mum) is working part-time, I wonder is times are bad. I must make time to see her. The party at Thai club ended at 4a.m. with a issue. Sometimes I'm not proud to be Indian. Its what others Indians do which people label the whole Indian culture.
As I came back later I slept My Sunday till 12.30. Woke up and had my brunch. Mum cooked nasi briyani with ayam rendang.. sedap siut. At about 1.30 we left for the graveyard. For those who have passed by the Cheras cemetery from far away its very picturesque view but in a close range its one crowded place
We started with our usual rounds, starting with my grandparents, its always an adventure to the cemetery, finding the plot or reading the burial notes. My favorite would definitely be "If you hear a noise its just me". I think the person who was burred there had a great sense of humor. If I were to die I would like to have a poem, Funeral Blues would be my choice...

Funeral Blues (by W. H. Auden)
Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.

Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message
He Is Dead.
Put crepe bows round the white necks of public doves,
Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.
He was my North, my South, my East and West.
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;I thought that love would last forever;

I was wrong.
The stars are not wanted now: put out every one;
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood;
For nothing now can ever come to any good.

We finished at 5p.m. Boy dont we have many dead relatives. If it was up to me I wouldn't go to anyone of them. More than half of them I have no clue who there were but I guess Dad is just doing his part to teach us about his family side. I think I would do the same if I had a kid of my own too. Well dats a thought.
