One of my guy colleague, is changing his penama in KWSP. It used to be his parent's name, I guess. He is now changing it to his wife's name. The wife just give birth to a baby boy few months ago. Then, he asked me, have I changed my penama or not. Then the other colleague replied, org perempuan selalu mana nak letak nama hubby as penama. Orang lelaki je fikir about the wife, but the wife ni takut betul nanti hubby kawin lain, then take the money with the new wife. Haha. I mampu gelak je. Tak pernah terfikir to that level lagi sebenarnye. If you ask me, benda yang selalu bermain in my mind is about my mum and dad. They don't have anoyone else but me. Well anyway, I reserve my comment. What say u? ;)

Maxis Dilemma
I have been a Maxis loyal user since 2000, 10 freaking years people!! And yeah, I tend to agree with some people's statement that Maxis don't value their loyal customers. Up till today, I never receive anything from them. Birthday voucher ke, rebates ke, points ke. Only kononnyer free calls and sms which I think is nothing.
I still remember my first hand phone. It was a Sony Ericson subscribed to a Maxis post paid line. Dad bought a complete set for me. We have the same number, except for his last number was 1 and mine was 0. During university, he paid all my phone bills. My credit limit was only RM250. When it burst, I called and informed dad, he paid and I was able to make calls within hours. That is why I love my dad so much :>
Most of my calls were to my mum, dad and granny. Budak baik baik lah katanyer. That was fmy irst year in university.
I could not remember who pays the bills after that but one thing for sure, my parents were my resort for any financial aids until I got my first job. Now days, I pay all my bills and basically, settle my own financial stuff.
On Internet, my first Internet journey was with TM prepaid cards. It cost you only RM15 and the line was damn slow. That time Friendster was just like Facebook. But those cards comes handy only during semester break, because in university, the Internet is free and it was heaven it tell you.
So got fed up with the prepaid cards, I subsribed to Streamyx Internet. For only RM49, the entitlement for my package was 60 hours per month, which was ok for non-heavy user like me. That time there were no facebook. More to blogging and blog hopping and chit-chatting in YM. I was quite happy with my Streamyx line. Eventhough once in a while it can went berserk just like that, but most of the time, it was reliable and 60 hours was manageable.
I terminated my Streamyx line when I got married and moved in to Bangi. We don't plan to install any telephone at home because our mobile number would suffice. Once in a while, I would work outstation and on weekly basis, I am all over the place i.e my parent's home, in-law's home, holidaying or where ever we tend to be. That was how our journey with Maxis broadband begins.
Suffice to say, I am quite dissapointed with Maxis Broadband :
1. They have no unlimited package
2. Usage goes by volume
3. The services is unstable
4. etc etc
I subscribed to RM78 package which grant me usage limited to 1.5MB per month. 1.5MB per month people!? That explains why I seldom load pictures in my blog anymore. With Facebook and Facebook games (a person tells me that I am addicted to FB games theeheehee), my usage usually went burst for only a week after the 1st of every month. What will happen after your usage burst is the line will go slow and you barely can surf anything anymore. My contract is for one year and will ends Jul 2010.
On Dec last year, I subsribed to Blackberry Enterprise services; the fee is RM99 per month with unlimited usage. My Internet usage on Blackberry is very minimal, mostly on FB updates and that is all. The technology is not up yet that able us to play Farmville using BB, even some websites such as CIMBclicks, Maybank2U can't be accessed using BB. Knowing that, I was a bit frustrated. RM99 per month with minimal usage is a total waste. Well, I happen to know that after I purchased the baby. But am quite a relief to know this baby is able to act as a modem. So what we did now days is to surf Internet using BB as modem but still, we can only do that with hubby's laptop, which is a Window based lappy. I don't really favour his lappy cos the touch pad is driving my crazy, I still think my Macy is the more friendlier than his lappy. And I still havent installed the Blackberry Manager in my Macy to which can hopefully allow me to surf Internet using BB as modem. Some people says this is not possible using Macbook. Am not sure yet. Will check on that.
I know Celcom is now promoting something similiar to what Maxis have; with no contract period. And Maxis seems to follow. I am not sure when will there be days, broadband with unlimited usage, will be launched by Maxis. And I am not sure when will Streamyx launched it's broadband services, coz I will surely go for that. I will go for anything that makes surfing easier and comes with unlimited access and also with reasonable monthly fee.
Any recommendation?

Diet Duit
I love to shop, especially on clothes, shoes, handbags, women's essentials you know. And since I don't fancy carrying bulk of cash with me, I always go for credit card. But not anymore.
For 2010, one of my resolution is to minimize my credit card usage. I used to have 3 credit card, terminated one of the card after I got married and that leaves it to two. Two is ok I guess, mainly for traveling or emergencies. I gave one for hubby to hide it (it is in the wardrobe anyway, I know :P) and the one with 15K credit limit is with me huhu. 15K credit limit!! Citibank mmg gile!
It has been a month since I last swiped the credit card. I feel good. I feel light. It is just like detox.
I now pay everything in cash.

Family Day
So today, my cool boss broke the news : We are going to have a Family Day!!
Finally! the we-don't-give-much-hope Family Day is coming! Bukannye ape, all this while it was all about cost saving here and there. Last time we had family day was during the peak oil period, which was around 2 years back. I was single back then ehem ehem so I guess for Family Day 2010, I'll not be coming alone anymore!
*grin*

Hari Membebel
Hari ni I wanna membebel banyak sikit. Maybe because I am pmsing :p
My kereta buat hal lagi. Sebelum itu, few days ago, ada hal lagi terjadi. At Touch and Go Lane, the car the front end was having problem with her T&G card so everyone at the back had to slowly reverse the car and change to the next lane. Bile dah reverse tu up till satu time tak boleh reverse, I stopped. But the car at the front didn't. I honked and honked and honked him but die tengah berangan agaknyer and boom!!! There goes. Die langar kereta aku. Mak sentap! Bile keluar kereta, tengok tade pape, okay lah selamat. Tapi mamat tu memang bengong.
So on last Monday, I was followed by a penjenayah menaiki motor and menyamar sebagai polis. He tried to stop me and lepastu cakap nak saman sebab melanggar undang-undang jalan-raya. Dah la pakai t-shirt, naik motor kapcai, then helmet, lepastu ada selit telefon kat telinga die. Die ingat aku bodoh nak caya die police ke. He tried to stop me few times but I refused to. Last-last, he took my photo and my car and sped off. Aiyor terkejut ok. Takut pon ada. I went to the police and report the case. It seems that guy is using fake plate so I was asked to be extra careful while driving. My boss reminded me to use different path to the office. Hubby is now driving my car coz I kind of freaked out to drive that car anymore. Takut die cam.
So today, while driving hubby's car, tiba-tiba temperature increases. I freaked out again. Dah lah few days ago I saw one car got burnt down while driving back. Aiyor. Nasib baik it happened near a PETRONAS station. I called hubby and he came to rescue. Thanks dear. He brought the car to the workshop. I wanted to follow and plan to take a day off but he wouldn't let me. So I drove my car to the office and let him to fix the other car. I already told my boss that I am going to be bit late. At KL Convex car park, the Early Bird rate is no longer valid because I clocked in at 9AM. So today I paid freaking RM23 for the parking alone! Sentap~
So at the office, I was told to attend this one training and since the company is now in cost saving mode, we are asked to travel by Firefly or Air Asia.
I called few friends to bebebe. Lega sikit lepas bebebe to my friends and bebebe kat sini :P
It is just another Manic Monday :D

Yang Mana Satu?
I have this one close friend, a guy and is getting married somewhere soon. So today, after lunch, he told me this one funny story.
"Tolong I, I rasa iman I tergugat" he wrote at the messanger
"What? what do you mean tergugat. Cemas ni" I replied
Then we both laughed, and continue
"I went out with a girl, an old friend of mine. She told me that she is now single. I could sensed that she has feelings for me coz when I told her I am getting married, die macam terkejut and terdiam. She is cute, cukup membuatkan iman I tergugat"
Hohoho cane ni u ols~ Layan saje lah. But I know him quite well. He is that type who is into hot girls. But the girl he is marrying is type yang baik and decent, which is the normality nowdays. Nak cuci mata yang hot-hot, nak kawin yang baik. Yeah he is quite comfortable of sharing this with me because he knows I don't against any of that. Biasalah tu guys kan.
I wrote back "Well speaking of experience, biasa lah masa time-time darah manis ni, macam-macam benda yang datang menduga. I've been there once"
Tak sempat nak bebel panjang-panjang kat dia lagi coz today was full of meeting. But for me, biasalah kot. Boys will always be boys. Few of my guys friend pon memang macamtu. Ada tu yang married, tapi bile pandang perempuan or anak-anak dara pass by, bukan main lagi diorang. Tiba-tiba jadi single jugak HAHA.
I would like to observe this "iman tergugat" feeling ni, esok ada lagi tak. Ker dah hilang dah. Memang seronok gossip dengan die ni. Walaupun die lelaki, tapi die suke bergossip. I loike.
Okie xoxo :p

Happy New Year 2010
Happy New Year to All :D:D
How time flies, in just a blink of an eye, it is already 5th of January today.
Tak payah lah nak cerita azam tahun baru kan cause it is such a boring topic. Allow me to keep my resolution only to myself.
Okay lah, maybe to share one simple wish I strive to achieve each day i.e to be a better person and live life to the fullest. Boring is in it? haha.
Someone is getting married in August, and the wedding ceremony will be in SWEEDEN!
Seronoknye kalau dapat pergi *mode berangan*
And also, Happy Birthday to Daia and Ee Fei i.e Abang Long and Kak Long!
How does it feel to hit 28? Rasa macam dah tua tak? As me the same question in February okay :)
