Milestone

Semalam cuti, spent 3/4 of the day at Immigration Putrajaya and JPN di Maju Junction. Why? Arshad kena renew work permit dia .. alhamdullillah dapat yearly work permit.. kalau tidak kena renew every 6 months.. penat tu and yg terkejut tu fee yg dikenakan is MYR 2100.00. Lupa gomen dah naikkan fee visa. Kalau tidak .. 100 sebulan plus handling fee of 150 so would come around MYR 1350.00. Penatnya tunggu di bahagian Spouse Programme ... mentang-mentang org yang nak berurusan tak ramai .. dia sediakan 2 kaunter je .. lepas tu pegawai yg jaga datang 20 ..30 minit sekali .. boleh pula berbual 10 minit pastu baru tekan butang nombor berikutnya.. aduszzz..Berurusan dgn gomen ni mmg kena banyak bersabar. Kemudian pi Maju Junction ambil MYKID naureen...tu kejap 20mins je. I thought office hour starts back at 2.00 pm, but org jaga kaunter datang balik jam 2.30 pm .. adeii adeii adeii. Mana la orang tak mencemuh kakitangan kerajaan...bila tgk mcm tu .. agak-agaknya kita di office kita ni mcm mana ye .. perasaan orang bila try to call 2.30 ttp kita takde .. masih lagi dok melepak di cafe`. Agaknya kalau di private sector dah kena sack kot ... sbb membazir duit company. :-P (kita complain psl service gomen .. kita pun kerja gomen .. kita buat tak apa yg dia orang buat?? Tu yg buat aku terfikir kejap .. duh)Then pi beli fisher-price baby piano utk naureen ... for her to play and gosh bila pasang .. melompat-lompat cik naureen kita. Btw, naureen dah boleh menjelar sekarang .. but moving backward instead of forward. Pagi tadi around 2.30 am. arshad kata, dia menjelar dari hujung ke hujung cot. Dah besar naureen ye... habis semua nak dibuat.. I've started her with solid food .. bila suap je dgn sudu, sudu tu le dia pi pegang masuk dlm mulut. Bila bagi botol susu, tu pun dia nak pegang sendiri. She has also started rolling to her side, from front to her back and from her back to the front. She has started picking up objects and likes to touch fabrics. Cuma satu je .. bila introduced solid, dia dah kurang minum susu ... was it a mistake to introduce solid at 4mon... should I've started at 6 mon??? But she has all the signs of a baby yg ready utk makan solid. Nevermind lah, as long as she is healthy and happy! Her next check-up at Ampang Puteri is on the 3rd December. I wander what Dr Haliza will say to Naureen ...

Working Towards Excellence

Yesterday's training was great. We had a role-play session and my role was an angry mother enquiring on the whereabouts of her son who has been MIA for the past 3 weeks in the university. After that some of my friends said "Liza .. macam mak tiri ... takuttttt" he he he he. It was great ... i love every seconds of the training! In one session, we were told to blow a balloon and draw three separate sections. I have to write down my possitive attitude in one section, 2nd section my negative attitudes and lastly self improvement to minimise the negative attitudes. So after ponding for few minutes, I started to write down the positive side of myself. Agree or not ?? Comment le kalau rasa tak betul .. I can accept criticisim tapi jangan lah sampai menusuk kalbu he he he. Here goes .....

+ve attitude ::

  • I am a good communicator and able to express my ideas clearly (hope so ...)
  • I am considered friendly when I opened up to people ... You need to get to know me more than 2 days for me to more nicer and friendlier to you.BUT (ada but but tu...) If you screw up and buat nasty things to me ... I'll make you my number one enemy!Iyolah .. minta maaf dari hujung rambut sampai hujung kaki lepas tu buat lagi kan .. kan .. kan .. agak-agaknya siapa ye ;-)
  • I love to learn. Doesn't matter whether it is technical or non-technical ... education is precious.
  • I listen to people .. and when listening to grievances and complaints .. i try to listen to both parties and try not to assume bad things ... Or I would meet and ask'em straight rather than gossiping and backbiting. (This is a lesson learned...utk dijadikan iktibar)
  • I love working with people and very affectionate to those who really understands me ..
  • I am committed and dedicated to my work and do the best to my ability in accomplishing the task at hand.

-ve attitude::

  • I am a very sensitive/upset easily when I hear people gossipping and telling lies behind my back. Then, I get very very angry .. and display my horrible horrible anger... satu office boleh dengar kita menjerit la kalau dah marah sangat. :-P
  • When theres too many work and obligations, I tend to mismanage my work and become disorganise
  • Then, I tend to forget things until the very last minute.. alas.. menggila-gila buat kerja supaya meet dateline
  • I am also easily stressed when things come in one big pile with short datelines
  • I think too much about what others think about myself
  • I tend to procrastinate when I get bored or when theres too much work and I wouldn't know where to start off.

Self Improvement ::

  • I have to be more proffesional when it comes to work and when dealing with difficult subordinates
  • I have to take things easy and do it one at a time. Take time off ... and then start back.
  • I need to prioritize my work and ensure datelines are kept.
  • I need to update my logbook daily and frequently. I need to have a to do list ready for the next day and at the end of the day .. do a check list of the task that I have yet to complete.
  • I must not dwell on matters and I should not think too much of what others think. I won't get anything or move forward if semuanya revolves on those people.
  • Move On .. Move forward ... and be happy

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri II

I came back to work on the 10th of November 05 and was baraged by numerous to do things. Boredom invaded my thoughts and left me numb to the core. ISO certification is also around the corner...and that worries me to bit also as there so many things that have yet to be settled. But then today, I attended a training on Working towards excellence with some of officemate. That gave my spirit a boost that is needed badly! Renewed responsibilities and commitments, positive and negative attitudes on work, motivation to excel at work and customer service. Things that I have forgotten. When you have been working in a relax manner for a number years you became forgetful of your responsibility .. your dedication ... commitment and obligation towards the organisation/employer that is paying you to do the task efficiently and effectively. I am eager to learn more and can't wait for tomorrow's session.. Insyallah ... the trainer told us theres going to be a role-player session... that will be very interesting in deed!!!

Here is a studio pictures with the family that was taken during the 3rd day of Eid to share with all of you. My pumpkin is getting bigger by the day ....

Baby_1Naureen is 4 1/2 months and counting. She looks a bit frightened as there were this old chinese guy with a tamburine making so much noise to attract her...
