A Tired Day

Gawd,
I'm so tired today after a lengthy nite of DIY installing a TV console. All because to save that RM20. I spent a total of 6 hours installing the TV console with the helps of my mum.

It looks very simple when I was at the furniture shop and in the end of the bargaining, I offer them RM20 less if I would do the installation all by myself. All their driver gotta do is just to drop the thing at my house. The rest I settle. Not knowing the efforts and hassle then.

The actual truth, there are more screws hidden and one couldn't imagine the number of screws are being used to hold the TV console. I was quite stunned when I see the pack of screws and I was thinking do they really need all these screws? Believe me, they do. I lost count of the screws I used. I often see people doing installation and I think it's an easy job.

However, equipped with half knowledge, I tried veturing my own. I learnt new things and experiences are gained though. hahaha

However, I'm totally satisfy with the end result. After all the efforts, I can say I gain 100% of satisfaction. Although some minor issue crops up, I still managed to save it and make it look nice for CNY.

I've been wanting something like that to replace my old TV console and I've made my dream come true with RM280 and 6 hours of work. What more could I get. As the saying goes, "U gotta work for it, man". Thatz is true somehow, in my case.

By the way, I would like to take this opportunity to wish all my friends, readers(if there's any) relatives and all blogger a HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS CHINESE NEW YEAR!!!

Cheers.

p.s. I shall post up the pix once I take them tonite.

Annual Bonus

It's time of the year again and everyone been talking abt it. It seems to be the reward which are totally taken for granted nowadays. Bonus are said to be compulsary to award to the employees. But then, according to the labour law, they are not. The employers has the rights to award the bonus they deem fit.

Some is happy with what they got, and some just laments over it. Well, it has been a norm among the working class no matter what field one is venturing in. This is the days where "Bonus" in one way or the other, influence how your New Year is gonna be and watz your plan.

As for me, news is out and I'm still in the dark whether I'll be getting it or not... Quite worry abt it though... Got bonus, very happy... or else, die standing. After all, it's money that makes the world go round, ain't it. Be it is the source of all evil or source of respect and powers, it's still the fundamentals for survival nowadays. As the sayings goes, Cash is Power...

I do hope for a full month bonus but then, I don't really place my hopes to high. Just hope that I'll have enough will do.

So, have you got your bonus?? Happy with it?? I hope you are. For those who do not get theirs, don't be despair. For it's time for you to hop to a better prospect. Or maybe I'm wrong... Whateva it is, I wish everyone a Happy Chinese New Year with prosperity and happiness.

Cheers

Something weird happening around me

You know, sometimes weird things do happens around you no matter where you are or when it is. You just couldn't control it. They just come as they like.

This thing happens to me a few weeks ago until now. In fact, I don't even know when this started.

Every night when I sleeps, normally around 2 or 3 something in the morning. I would sleep soundly without any dreams or nightmares as I'm just too tired. But then, few weeks ago, I got this dreams which I don't even know whether this is true or just a dream. But then, everything looks real. Believe, I know what is real and what is just an image which are being manipulated by the sub concious based on wat we have been looking or hearing when we are awake.

My dream is like this after thinking and thinking for days. I would wake up in a car (which is not mine) and beside me is my friend. A very long friend which now I've no chance to chat with him anymore. Letz us not dwell further on this, shall we. :)

After that, no matter how I wake my friend up, he would not wake up and just murmurs that he's tired and ask me not to bother him. Then shortly, a young man around 23-25 years old would appear from nowhere standing outside of the car. His face has no expression and he seems to be staring into the blank although his sharp protuding eyes are staring my ways. After a while, he uses his hand and gestured for me to come out of the car. I refused, and stayed in the car. he then cried. I was confused.

His cries somehow hurts my heart and feels sympathetic. But then, being used to all these, I know that I shouldn't open the door. Or else, it's "Bye Bye Mortal World" to me.

After a while, he dissapears and I wakes up.

The same dreams would go on and on everyday until last night. As I'm not free to check for the details of that man, I shall not venture further.

Well, do you have such occerence as well?? Letz share them.

Cheers.
