365 days ago, It is 2011!

Now, it is 2012.

Can't image that i am getting 1 year older soon.

Review of 2011,

1. I can conclude that working during Chinese new year is not a good sign.

Why i say so?

I calculated that most of my time is oversea (7.5 months).

It makes me feel bad that i cannot spend time with family.

Hence, I promised that this coming year 2012, i will celebrate CNY with my family.

Chinese New Year 2011 at Russia with friends.

2. I realized that i am not so active in blogging recently.

Total of posts is 54 only.

So bad! It is less that 100 posts.

I know the reason behind, i will try my best in 2012.

Posts that i blog store in folder individually.

3. Where i travel to 2011?

a. Kameka, Russian.

b. Hanoi, Vietnam

c. Bangkok, Thailand

d. Abidjan, Ivory Coast.

e. Saratov, Russian.

f. Shen Zhen, China

4. Bloggers who i met.

Manglish, Bananaz, Mango, Merryn Tan, Ethan and William

5. The moment that i feel i am Malaysian.

Voting is our right!

6. Things that i still owe people...

a. I bet that Bananaz is a young girl with Manglish and Merryn Tan.

I lost the bet - Hence, i still owe them ABC cendol.

b. Wenn guess correctly the answer "Just for fun".

I have the Key chain of Shen Zhen with me but... I still not send it out yet.

7. My dream car become reality.

Car reserved - Voon

8. Best Christmas gift from Company.

Ipad 2 - Now - it is belong to Vanessa

9. I feel happy that i am not miss the events.

Manage come back in time from Africa to celebrate my daughter's birthday.

Manage come back in time from Russia to attend 10 years old friend's wedding.

10. I feel sad/sorry that i miss the events.

a. 2 years, i am not available to celebrate my wife's birthday.

(1st time at Kamenka, Russia and 2nd time at Saratov, Russia)

b. Cannot attend my daughter's school orientation day - 3oth December.

(At Patum, Thailand)

Wishes of 2012:

1. MUST celebrate Chinese New Year 2012 with family.

2. Spend less time in playing online games - more posting.

(Poor Nuffnang - not a good motivation agent)

3. Travelling but in short period at oversea.

4. Meet with bloggers - err... I am shy better not... kekeke

5. I wish i able to cast my vote for Malaysia election number 13rd!

6. So... When your guy (Manglish, Bananaz & Merryn) free?

I will send out the things to you, Wenn when i back from Thailand.

Keep my finger cross.

7. Still the same goal as previous, won the RM20++million lottery.

8. I hope Ipad 3 will come out then best gift for my wife.

9. Will not miss all important events and come back in time.

10. Not oversea when important events triggered.

Spend more time with family.

"I wish my dream come truth this NEW YEAR 2012"

And,

"I wish all the wishes that you would like to cast... come truth as well"

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2012 TO YOU!

Abu Dhabi - Etihad airlines

2011-11-29T21:14:00.001+08:00

This is the first time, i use Etihad airlines...

And, it is my first time i transit at Abu Dhabi ~~country~~ city as well.

I feel good at this travelling - more comfortable and relaxing compare to previous trip.

Abu Dhabi is city quite close to Dubai.

Its first expression for me, it is quite well planning city.

Abu Dhabi city.

Why i say that this trip is more comfortable and not so tiring.

First, when i know that i have to transit overnight at Abu Dhabi airport from 11pm to 8am.

I make a request from Etihad airline that i want a hotel to rest.

Finally, i manage to get a free bedroom provided - Airport Hotel.

(To claim the free hotel,

First, you need to request from airlines agent when buy the ticket;

second, you need to claim the coupon at the airlines service counter)

It is not easy to get, it is depend on available bedroom in airtport Hotel.

Feel lucky that i manage to get one free bedroom which cost 185 USD.

It is quite good hotel.

I can found a least more than 5 power sockets in a single room.

( But, not internet provided :( )

About the Abu Dhabi airport,

I will give a rating around 8/10.

There are a lot facilities allows passengers kill their time.

You can play games - and online at their provided computers.

(Again, there is not any accessible wifi provided :( )

I can say everything is free if you have transit time longer than 7-8 hours.

They provided you free breakfast as well.

The location to have your breakfast is located at Terminal 3 where you need go through security check.

With at breakfast coupon, you can order any food from any restaurant at Terminal 3.

This is the breakfast i took.

(mmm... ok la)

Let's talking about the toilet i visit in the airport.

It is the biggest toilet i visit - around 20+ toilets room.

(but, not all the toilet top up with paper roll)

About the food of Etihad airlines,

It is quite enjoyable and taste good to me.

And, it is the first that i experience eating ice cream on the plane.

Experience yourself - wish you like it.

(P/s: don't misunderstanding, i am not given money to promote this airlines or director of the airlines)

(This is my own personal experience)

I and My "Ex" Girlfriend

2011-11-21T22:02:00.001+08:00

Quite a long time i leave my blog alone.

After come back from Shen Zen,

I find an excuse that i am busy and not to update my blog :).

Until my wife travel to oversea for 1 week.

I am free and i can spend most of my time with my ex-girlfriend.

She is totally different when my wife is here.

When i pick her up, she will start put on the safety belt herself.

(Normally, she decline to sit properly in the car)

When it is dinner time, she manages to finih meal by herself.

(Normally, i need to feed her by chasing her up and down)

When it is weekend morning, she will wake up early and shout beside my ear

"Wake up lo, Sun is coming out"

When it is time to take bath, she is fully cooperate and let me wash her.

(Normally, she will reject and run away)

When she wants to pee/poo, she will tell me and go to pee/poo by herself.

It is more trouble when at shopping mall, i should bring her to male or female toilet?

When she in the car, she normally ask me to play "Just Change" song for her.

Now, she want to hear "Nothing going change my love for you"

When we watch Shrek IV together,

she start cry when see the Shrek has to separate with his Fiona.

When I look down, she will dance or sing (A,B,C to Z) in front of me to cheer me up.

When i'm busy, she will not disturb me and do her painting or practice writing A, B, C.

When i wash my car, she will give me a hand - plays water around.

When 10 + o'clock, she will go to sleep by herself.

She is my ex-girlfriend from past life. :)

She is my daughter now.

She is grow up now.

My wife will back today!

I ask my daughter, do you miss your mummy.

She answer me "Yes, but not daddy"

When i heard that, i prevent crying and she just kidding me.

"Ok ok... don't cry, i sayang daddy too"

What a naughty daughter.

Today, it is another Monday again.

I am very fresh and work energize to complete my task.

I don't know why I never feel blue when i work at oversea.

Maybe, i know that when i finish my work early means my home is not far away.

But, i feel blue after working at 6pm.

As usual, driver send my translator back home and send me next.

Along the way to Hotel,

Suddenly, the car start shaking and stop.

Driver tried very hard to start again but canNOT.

We laugh to each others.

We stop the car at the side of road.

I don't know what to do...and same to the driver.

What i can do is ... turn on this song for him.

This is the song, i used to play when someone or me - in troubles.

"Bobby Mcferrin - Don't Worry"

After play for 1 minutes, i stop.......

Haiya! He don't understand English.

So, i play one song for myself... to kill the time wait for help.

After finish listen to the song, i feel more DOWN.

I forget that NO SUPERMAN in Russia - BUT in USA.

This is first time, i see how people to start up again the car.

The car is at the 30 degree slope road.

Hence, he let the car reverse and he manage to start the car again.

We again laugh at each others.

After 10 minutes, the car stop again.

Lucky, we managed to stop near to shop.

After driver discuss with the shopper who sell car spareS,

He bought some parts from the shop.

And, he start to change the parts which think possible broken.

It is around 7pm, it starting to rain soon.

I want to tell him, 2 things... but i don't know how to say in Russia.

First, it is time to change your car ... maybe - Ford brand car?

Second, Your ass is coming OUT liao....

I don't know why i am not worry like previous case in Russia - HERE.

One people smiles, another One doubt...

(You know why i am not doubt, cause i know this problems will be solved soon)

At 7:30pm, Helpers are coming!

They ask me to take another car and back to Hotel.

Sure, i am happy and jump into the car below:

I thought they are going to send me soon.
I'm waiting in this car and i saw the previous car is moving again.
One of the guy (Boss) told me ... please sit back on the 660 car.
The driver try to drive away and feel that the car still not stable and stop again.

Haiya... Again, Boss ask me go back to the 938 car again.
I am BLUE and BLUR...

At 8:15pm,
I reach hotel and i tell him "ToPasshiba" (Thank you)
He smiles and we laugh again about the car...
Now, I am safe in the hotel.

I am NOT that bad guys.
I really don't know what i can help.
It is not a normal car..i never see that kind of spare before ....
If you have problems, i will try to help...

A lady waiter come to serve me.

After pointing all the food, i plan to have a tea.

(Today, i am cough hence cannot drink coke)

I : "茶!"

(It is similar to Chinese pronunciation 茶 = tea )

Waiter: "$^$$%^%^^*&^&*"

I say again : "好lanso"

(好 is mean good in Chinese + lanso = Ok or Good in Russia)

After few minutes,

The waiter takes a cup to hot water with black tea.

See, i can speak Russia here :P

When i'm drinking,

The waiter come again and talk to me:

Waiter: "$^%$^%^&^*()()(_)"

(This time i cannot use any logic to predict what she say..."

Anyhow, i reply her.

I : "好lanso"

(I think should be no problems gua...)

"Soup of the day"

"Spaghetti with fish"

I have order another BBQ pork as well.

Wait and wait ...

Take me 15 to 20 minutes...

Now, i start thinking what waiter told me just now:

There are 2 possibility what she said:

a) "My dear customer, the BBQ take quite long time, it is ok for you?"

b) "My dear customer, the BBQ just not available, it is ok for you?"

I regret to say "好lanso" to her.

(Next time, if don't know please don't pretend ok)

After 30 minutes,

My BBQ pork is served.

So, i guess what (a) is the question she want to ask me :)

When i plan to start enjoy the BBQ pork,

I found out that only spoon and knife on my tables.

"Where is my FORK?"

I need to ask my translator tomorrow - How to speak fork in Russia"

Don't ask me how i finish my BBQ pork... :(

After finish, when i saw the waiter...

I say :"Short"

Waiter reply :"Short ar"

(Short is mean bill in russia)

The bill is around 774 rubble ~ RM77.40.

And, i pay 1000 rubble and wait for the change.

The waiter come again and bring nothing to me and say:

Waiter :"%&^%&*%&^*^*(&*)("

(After learn the lesson before... i will not say 好lanso anymore!"

I quickly reply to her "poor 好"

(poor 好 is not good)

And, She returns the change for me.

Sorry, i don't know what you say...

It is very important to learn Russia language

if you are alone!

(Lesson to children, let them independent hence they can learn somethings faster)

The worst time after this is ...

How should i take this cough medicine???

All in Russia language!

HELP ME!

Help Me!

ANYONE CAN HELP ME!

P/S: Don't worry, i have ask translator how to take the medicine :P

Life in Russia...

2011-08-26T02:01:00.000+08:00

I don't know what to write here...

I feel that i am not a lucky guy...

Every times, i will be handle the project which nobody dare to go.

e.g. Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Ukraine and Russia.

I can said normally the customer is not really take care of me.

Except Ivory Coast.

This trip is the worst for me.

I am alone and ...

I still remember that when my junior stay at offshore with me.

We are tired after 2 weeks.

I used to motivate him - Calculate 1 day more than you can get 1 more day allowance.

I try to motivate myself using this method at here.

It doesn't work to me anymore.

How to prolong my time i spend here.

1 day just like 1 year for me.

Look i am very "Cham" here right?

From the work, i am NOT tension at all.

I'm more suffering from the customer side.

As you know, they not really take care of me.

They not like Asian people.

Why i say "Bruce Lee"?

1 Asian Vs with 100+ people here.

Don't think i am easy to be bully!

Now, the GM know about the news!!!

Hehehehe..

Actually, the main objective of the post is ...

I found a motivation method!

How to motivate yourself and pass the time for whole day?

Very Simple!

I use it more around 6 days!

I am getting better now.

Write some encourage message in your "To-do-list".

So, every 2 hours i will get the message... and Motivate me to keep on.

NOW... I AM VERY FINE NOW!

Hope i can go further more :P

Refer to the photos above which i took.

I saw a couple at the seaside.

The hubby is very patient to fishing - his patient because fishing is his hobby.

The wife is very patient stand there - her patient because she like to beside with her hubby.

His wife is very good, supporting and never complaint and stand there with him.

Can you see at the bottom left photos?

Happy for them!

I wonder if i go to fishing, my wife will be my side or not?

To be continue...

I always agree that :

Everything good, it will be following something bad.

Last week after coming back from beach,

I am suffering here.

First, the internet service is suddenly down for 1 week.

It is really painful that i cannot connect to internet here.

I totally out of the world.

Today, when i manage to connect to the internet.

I am shock and very SHOCK!

It is news from my country.

I am really shamed of my current government.

Why they so scare people go to street peacefully?

Change for your next generation!

No internet...

(I am shock again - the blogger template is totally new to me)

Interrupt of water supply..

and following with interrupt of electricity happen here.

Feel lucky that today everything come back to normal.

It is difficult to work here.
Last time,
When i at Russian/Ukraine,
People will tell me "Later, i will do"
So, i wait until tomorrow and they completed for me.

At here - Africa,
People will tell me "Tomorrow, i will do"
After 1 week, they haven't complete for me.
Hence, it is really tired to wait and wait.
I should come back on 4th July...

So, today i am free to write this post because i boycott and stay at house.
Wait at house better than wait at factory, so i can use internet.

Let's talk something good than bad stuffs.
