Post before sleeping !

At work, I asked my manager when will I be getting my pay cheque. Working for about a month now, hehe :) Stoned at me awhile and he went " Ohh! yeah, call everyone to come. " *Takes out a transparent bag with loads of pink and blue papers* wasn't sure where he took it from, seemed like it was from under the table. hmmm ANYWAY!

First, he gave my friend, Yong his pay. It was a cheque stapled to a pink paper showing the maths ( deduction of epf and socso, aww damn. ) The blue one was a copy of it. Signed it and he got his. Woo clapped xD. Quickly threw my gloves away as I was busy wiping the tables with "Kleenal Ex" ( some badass chemical for cleaning purposes ) Dried my hands and took mine, RAWR !! Others clapped :þ

Looked at it and there it was stated.
Date of join : 3 November 2009
Hours/rm5 - rm300
EPF - -rm24
SOCSO - -rm1.25
NetAmount - RM274.75

13 days of work :)
At first I thought it was a whole month's salary. Shocked to see only rm274 for a month ! Till my senior friend explained : Punch cards are taken back on the 15th of every month. A new month starts on the 16th for part timers. 3rd - 15th is 13 days right? :D

Wahaha today I got my first ever pay cheque ! in my life :) woooooooooo

Yong started on the 21st of October and his pay was only rm210+ ? He's going to ask the head manager about it tomorrow.

I need to ask the head manager about epf also. Need to get my account started baby ! I guess I'll stop work on the 15th and get my cheque on January 7th, if I continue to work after the 15th I will have to wait till February which I may forget ( Bad memory as some of you may know :D )


Woah crap its 3:31AM already !! I have church at 8/8:30 tomorrow and I'm working at 10am to 3pm tomorrow. Byee :) Goodnights or morning.

Ps: I'll get a picture of the cheque and maybe post it up later in the future, if I remember.


Dreamland, here I come..........

Starting a new month

Hey I'm back :D again
Well I'm always back since I always have a long break between each post :P

I bet most of my readers has stopped coming back anyway but I'll write this for myself to remember.


4 days ago I started working as a waiter. Getting this job was so easy. Before this I have already been looking for a job since my exams ended which was before Deepavali I think. About half a month trying to look for a job, at pyramid and at parade.

At first I tried a few places which said that they would call back. Before this my friend has told me that when they say " we'll call you back " it means NO! they are just wasting your time making you fill up an application form about 2-4 pages long?

For the second time, I tried my luck at Nando's again. This time the " good manager " was there but he asked me to come back at 3 as it was lunch hour and they were busy. I came back at 3 and the " not good manager " was there with the good one. Of I forgot to mention I went with my friend. They asked us to sit and they both were talking. Soon they called my friend and wanted to hire her but they said she had to work till 1130 the latest shift. She couldn't as she was still busy and it might be too late for her, so she asked them to hire me instead. I got it :D

I was so happy getting a first YES. I was to start the next they and they prepared everything for me. After that I met up with Azhad and the others. Azhad told me he got a job at Dome and he was alone, so he asked me to join him. Without any hopes, I asked Dome for the 2nd time. Well on the spot the manage interviewed me and I was hired.

Comparison between Dome and Nando's

Dome | Nando's
Paid RM5/hour | RM4/hour

Working
life Always on the move, busy | No idea

Freebies Iced Tea on request/ random drinks | I think soft drinks?

Staff meal Only on Fridays and Saturdays | Yes, after 8 working hours
( i think Picked from menu )

Well I chose Dome since Azhad was alone but I didn't know that he would be working for only 1 month. After that 1 month, I WILL BE ALONE ! :(

1 word for the customers of dome, Gods. The customers are treated like one. Everything is done by the waiters. Enough of work talk hehe.



Signing out, a dome waiter.

Secondly, I want to say Thank You to everybody who wished me and didn't :3

Happy Birthday dad !

As the titles states,

Happy Birthday Daddy !

Woo ! went out for supper at sri melur at 12+
Only the four of us because my eldest brother is in Melaka. Me and my other brother ordered food and drinks and as usual my dad ordered his teh tarik kurang manis. Saw Huey Yann with her parents and Shern Wei with his friend. Reached home about 1 + , install a Wii emulator and tried to play Muramasa but it was a lagging so bad that it was not playable :(

Woke up at 9 15, rushed, washed up and packed my bag for group study and volleyball. Didn't study much, played with hamster. Sem brought it for SueLi to play with. I got pictures but I'll upload it later, in a dota game now. RUSH BLOG !

Came back at 6 45, bathed and went to Windmill for dinner with dad and mommey. 2nd brother went out with cousins. 3 of us only, kinda sad but still :D weee

Reached home, cousins and brother bought cake for dad. Oh enjoyed it. Going to DotA now.

Blog Revival ! for the moment

Hey yall, it has been a while since I last posted.

Been really busy with YE work, just a notebook or an organiser. We had to make 2THOUSAND books. All handmade and the process from 1 to another is really slow.

FRONT COVER
We had to stick stripes ( red and white ) , a blue rectangle , the 14 pointed stars and the cresent ( cut out from paper ) . Oh yeah we had to measure the margine for the front cover.

WHAT'S INSIDE
We had 8 boxes filled with paper, blady heavy. Had to carry them from the staff room to the YE room. Well it is an organiser with a year in it, 12 months. Each page has only half a month. Best of all the papers in the boxes were not sorted out. The papers were so fine that they stick together. When there is paper, there is papercuts. Ouch.

OVERALL
We had to punch 5 holes in every book and I think there are only double hole punchers and nothing more. Had to punch each book 3 times to make 5 holes. There are 24 pages ( 12 months ) front cover and back cover which makes it 26 pages. Punching 26 pages at once would kill the puncher so some had to split a book into 2 or 3 then start punching. After getting the 5 holes for every book, we had to tie them with a ribbon.

THE MATHS AND NUMBERS
1 Front Cover - 7 white stripes , 7 red stripes , 1 blue rectangle , a star and a cresent

2000 front covers - 14 stripes x 2000 = 28000
2000 blue rectangles
2000 stars
2000 cresents

Glue them all together and make a Malaysian flag.


1 Year - 12 months , 12 sets ( sorted out in pairs of 2 )

2000 years - 24000 months = 48000 sheets of paper sorted out .


1 Book - 5 holes , 3 times to punch( for a full book ) , have to split into 2 or 3

2000 books - 5 x 2000=10000 holes , 30000 times to punch , multiply by amount of times divided.


Tying them together was quite simple, no numbers lol

YE has about 30+ members? Just imagine plus I didn't do THAT much. hehe :þ

Our teacher advisers wanted to get our effort into the Malaysian Book of Records for making the most handmade books. It costs RM1500 to get the application. If they do not accept it, wooo RM1500 kena makan.

School was going to buy all of books and give it out to students so all of us got our own books back.

About 3 weeks ago, my dad bought me a new pair of NewBalance running shoes :)
Thanks dad!
Before this I always wore my brother's shoes but they were slightly small and were hurting all of my toes. You can just imagine running for 30+ minutes with the pain on both feet.

Since my dad is a runner himself and my other 2 brothers do not join him for runs, I guess he was really happy when I started to run with him. For the first time in my life, my dad asked me to choose a few models and asked the woman to get my size WITHOUT CHECKING THE PRICE. I " oh emm geeee "-ed. AfterI chose the one I liked, he just told the woman he wanted it and only at the counter when he was about to pay, he asked the price. Lucky my dad is a pacesetter member so he gets discounts on some brands.





PriceTag : RM330
Discount : About 30% - 40%
Colour : Silver / Gold
ShopLocation : NewBalance, Pyramid
Why I chose it?
As most of you don't know, I am a flat-footed. Being one, it makes me more prone to injuries and pain at the feet. This shoe has a medium height arch to slowly form an arch on my foot.

I've only wore this shoe twice because there are no runs during the fasting month.

ps. I'm still waiting for the pictures to upload =_=
*edited* yeah finally


Still waiting for the upload, byee

Holiday Week ! ~

I just realised that it has been more than 10 days since I last posted. Time passed so fast and I haven't done anything, studying and stuff. Been playing my games 24/7 and having excessive sleeping hours. This really has wiped my memory, I can't remember what I did on last Saturday and Sunday other than volleyball.


Looks like I will not be looking for anymore jobs, it is already Wednesday. Unless there are events which needs help.
:D

I'm not what else to blog about, I think I'll chat/dota/cs soon :)

Byee

Blogging, a diary?

Pictures taken using my phone. 2 megapixels ~

Bloooooooody isn't it? Like a half-cut dragonfruit !


This whole week has been so boring. Starting off with Monday, assembly today was uhh...different? Worst thing was that I had forgotten to bring my tie. I was using my bag to cover. Nazrin too didn't bring his and he was sitting infront of me. Both were hugging bags. They SuPeR small trophies were given. I can't remember for what though, as usual I was busy falling asleep. Soon there was something different, they were annoucing 2 students from each class, a boy and a girl. It was for best behaviour, chosen by the form teacher.

Soon I heard my class and to a surprise, I heard my name !

Somebody : 4 Sigma, Wong Ooi Foo dan Nuraihan.

I was half asleep then and was asking around why they called my name for. Best behaviour without a tie ! Quickly took my friend's tie and wore it on the way to the stage.

We received a tag saying " SAYA PELAJAR BERSOPAN SANTUN ", name , class ,school and an Oval Smiley !




I LOL'D at the tag.


Nobody believed that I got it either !
Alvin and good behaviour. No click? xD



Tuesday and Wednesday was normal.
Slept at 4 because I was doing my last minute moral essays. Thursday, we had some merdeka thing for the first 1-2 periods which we had to sing and stuff. As soon as my classmates heard " Tomorrow got some merdeka crap wei ", about half the class didn't come to school =_=

Left half the class to attend and no teachers were teaching, only our history teacher.

Friday , today ! Can't remember what happend, gosh what happened to me ~~

Just got back from tuition :D

There's school tomorrow !! T_T
I wonder who is going?
OR
Who's going MTV World Stage? xD


Oh yeah. Want to see something?





Thanks to Vanessa ! Photos by Amer ~



And I just want to say, please
Take care of your health
Avoid going out to public places
H1N1 is out of control and it is everywhere
We don't want to lose anyone
*cheers!*
I heard eating rice helps as an antibiotic for H1N1



Till my blog starts to die again, bye !
