Differentiate between improvement and "wanna be"

Yesterday when I was taking the train back home using KTMB, there is this bunch of teens were queuing at the ladies coach and me,further down ahead to unisex coach (nearer to staircase where I reach my stop). No, I did not approach them to tell them because they can change it later on and there's plenty of space in the coach. There's not much of people queuing as well. However, this is not my fault for not informing them because there's a big sign on the floor stating "FEMALE COACH". Don't tell me they can't read!

So what happen is when train arrived, they got shocked why is it female coach and they rushed to my queue line. Guess what? THEY CUT MY QUEUE and the whole queue line is gone! Hello little brothers, you're still in school and yet your teachers or parent did not teach you to be considerate, respect and well mannered? Well, I do not blame them but I blame it on yourself.

Did you guys ever reflect yourself? Did you guys ever thought how does it feels like for strangers to cut your queue? Worst part is, THEY NEVER APOLOGIZE after getting my fierce look on them. Well, I can really say that most of the Malaysian does not have proper ethic in life.

For example:
  1. instead of saying the words "excuse me", they just bang you and leave
  2. instead of saying the words "I'm sorry", they just look somewhere else and acts like nth happen
  3. instead of telling you that there's some weird insect on your shirt, they just left it be until you got a heart attack
  4. instead of queuing, either on the highway tolls or any queue related, they just cut your queue

Well, I must said that I really hate it here. I wasn't raised with much of this ethic, I learned by watching how people react when this incident took place. Even it happens on me, I reflect myself. "Why am I behaving like this???? This is such a shame!!"

Lets take an example in France (I've been in France twice, took train very often). When I block someone's way by accident, they said "excusez-moi/pardon" which simply means excuse me. When they accidentally shoulder bang, they apologized!

Yes, some of you might know that I have French boyfriend and you can simply said that I am a French wanna be. Hey, this is 2015. Wanna be or not, this is not how you judge. This is what I called IMPROVEMENT. I improve myself to be a better person. This is not something like "kia-si" or "kia-su" matter. Life is short to be that way.

Improving your own ethical, it brings better and healthy lifestyle to yourself. How? Go reflect yourself.

What do you love about me?

"What do you love about me?"

This question is very tricky.... It really depends on how you answer them. But when you answered without satisfying the questioner, you're dead

But this question seems to be very popular among all the young couple which their chemical just bloomed. This question is very flirtatious, if only you are flirtatious.

"What do you love me?" or "Why me?"

If you really have the chemical bond within your partner, this is good to ask because this question is a very good compliment and makes you fall in love again. These similar questions are supposed to be compliment but many of the couple tend to switch from romantic to horror-tic after getting unsatisfied answer. (trust me, I've been there before)

If they answered "Because you're beautiful, kind, etc etc....". Be happy. I don't think that "Don't ask" would be much better, right? Ask yourself, do you really want your lover to ask you this and expecting for a brilliant answer without pissing them off? No, right?

Loving your another half is just because there is some "sparks" happening in the mind and heart which makes you wanna go "hunt" and "conquer" them. Although this "sparks doesn't happen much on the first sight.... Like me and Enric.

So.... Basically this question is just for flirting and getting nice compliment. Wouldn't you be happy that your other half said that "You're sexy" and then you got a sweet kiss? I would!! Please, don't just start arguing after this question raised. This is dumb if it happens. *eyes rolling*

Salon du Chocolat, Publika

Heard of Salon Du Chocolat before? I believed you do! How can you not know this chocolate crepe that everyone has been talking about?

I've been tempted to try but it's always full! Finally, I got the chance which my brother and his girlfriend queued for like maybe 5 minutes and we got our seat! We are keen to order the famous one which is the top choice of everyone. Even when my brother (not a fans of chasing dessert) asked which to order, immediately both of me and his girlfriend just pointed at the same picture saying that this is the one we always saw in the internet.

However, there is 8 of us including my friends, we ordered these... There's two more which they ordered, molten lava cake and if I'm not mistaken, brownies in cup? Never mind, these photo taken is the best!!
Let me introduce you, BROWNIES CREPE. The number one choice! YOU MUST TRY THIS. Oh my god. The second best chocolate dessert I ever had. The first is chocolate lava cake made by my boyfriend. I'm hungry!!!!

Alright, the second one, CHOCOLATE CREPE. Look at the chocolate sauce the poured on top of the crepe. Every single bite, confirmed that your lips stained with chocolate!

The third one, FETTUCCINI CREPE. This is awesome. Topped with vanilla ice cream. Tell me, who doesn't love it? Yeah, I used to hate it because some vanilla ice cream taste too creamy, makes me feel bloated. Finally, I ate vanilla. Thanks to Ee Laine for always buying McD ice cream, so I followed. Still, I'm not really that fancy of it la. HAHAHAHAHHAHA........

Come on, try at least once. I've given you my opinion. These three dishes are enough to fill your lunch and dinner! Though it is pricey, BUT! It's worth paying because their ingredients are not stingy at all with the price given. Even me kiamsiap gui also feels that this is worth than eating steamboat. However, I did not pay for these. Thanks to Zyro Wong for the treat!!!!!!

Dear Fussy Guest

Dear guest who checking in hotel,

When we told you that we are unable to let you have late check out because of full house, don't complain. We have to let other guest to check in to your room after your check out date. We need time to clean the room as well before handing it over to the next one. Why would you love to complain so much?

Put yourself into the next guest who suppose to check in to your room. And it is 2pm (standard check in time) and the receptionist apologized to you that there is a guest still inside and you are unable to check in yet (check out time 12 noon). How do you feel?

Even though you checked out at 1pm, our housekeeping colleague are not robot which can clean the room within few minutes,please be understanding and considerate for the next people who are checking in.

It doesn't matter if you paid for a day before and your checked in on the next day early morning, the check out time is the same. If we hotel allow you to have flexible check in and out time, we can declare to close down this hotel operation.

The reason why we have these 12pm check out and 2pm check in is to have the time to clean up the mess within two hour. Can you clean average 15 rooms in 2 hours alone? No. Not everyone is fast enough.

Please be considerate.

Last but not least, if you booked a room to check in today and you came at 5am, don't expect that we have room for you even tho you requested. It is based on the hotel availability on the day before which mean yesterday. We don't pre block and lost one day sales profit for you because you never pay for that. Don't make yourself right in that way and start to argue.

Stay smart, don't shout. And please don't call us stupid. No one likes it. Behave yourself please.

Night shift & shitty schedule

There are pros and cons working on night shift. I preferable not to work night shift simply because when the sky turns dark, it is my bedtime. I couldn't set my sleeping time in the day light because I don't and I can't do that.

But working in night shift feels like I'm the only one controlling everything in the reception. I love doing night audit but not the shift. It's tiring. Now my eyes are sore and dry. I just wanna close my eyes now and rest. But no, I can't do that. However, night shift is not really my thing. 

So I have to work smart to show them my good potential in leading, hence I could have the chance to be promoted!

Anyway, this week I'm having shitty schedule. Friday with night shift till 9 o'clock in the morning, a rest day on Saturday and I have to work at 7am on Sunday. Wow, brilliant huh? I'm so gonna have my beautiful dark circle soon. Colleague fell down and have to get sick leave while another one had already resigned. How can my HR release people just like that without having a replacement for that?

I am sure I'm gonna make some mistake due to jet lag + lack of sleep = uneffectiveness to work effectively. If you get what I'm trying to say here.

Dear future boss and HR personnel,

Please look for replacement before you let your employee resigned and left. This caused your current employee to think that you're not concerned about them at all and make them work more. Be more considerate please.

Sigh.... This is difficult. I'm so tired right now.... I wish I'm home, laying on my comfy bed with Tigger and Blue.

Tough life on 24.

Xiao Mi, Mi3 review

Well, let me share my personal thought regarding this phone. But first, let me tell you my expectation.

Knowing a lot of my friend is buying this phone, I'm thinking like "Why everyone is so crazy bout this?". Many people sharing photo and the page of Xiao Mi. So I started to look into it since my iphone4 started to be so slow and lagging all the time. I've already thought of buying S5 at that time. But since everyone said that this mi3 is using the faster android. (I don't really care)

What I'm looking for cheap smartphone but I don't want a lousy smartphone or outdated smartphone.

Yes, I'm very picky. Even when I decided to buy Mi3, Mi4 is out then XiaoMi page stop selling Mi3. Pretty upset. However, back to my expectation.

They said resolution is good, browse fast, reliable, able to transfer data from iPhone/samsung phone. So no worry if you have to re-set everything.

After buying, what I experienced is that the speed of browsing is awesome. Really good price (although my family bought it for my birthday).


Problem occurred:
Whatsapp. You can't send voice message. This is dumb. No worry, you still can use WeChat. Feel sorry for you if you don't have WeChat account. In fact, it often having error and stop working. Including GooglePlay.

Battery life. Not that good. Not much different compare to my iphone4. With 3G turned on 24/7 with games played (less than an hour), your batter decreased  70%.

Camera and video. Photo taken is not that clear although the resolution is pretty high. Check out the photo below.

(Back camera)
(Front camera)
 These two photo taken are not edited and filtered)

Screenshot. I don't really like it as it is difficult to do it. Pressing lock button + lower volume button for few seconds until you see a shutter. Both button in the right. It's not really convenient when taking screenshot during Skype. See for yourself...

I accidentally pressed lower volume first so this came out. I failed so many times because it happens all the time when I screenshot. There is a shortcut by pulling your notification bar and just tap on the "screenshot" BUT, you could not do it when you're skyping. This is ridiculous. In fact, waiting few seconds is dumb. I thought it would give me a direct screenshot instead of waiting.

I was supposed to upload photo of me and enric skyping in Facebook but because of the settings, it spoiled everything.

However, it's still android. Up to you if you still wanna buy. I don't really mind. I still love my phone anyway.

My birthday + Enric's farewell dinner at El Cerdo

Blasting dinner last Friday night with family and Enric.

I received a text from El Cerdo wishing me Happy Birthday and giving me a free dessert. I ignored because never thought of returning there. Not because that I don't like, it's because I went there with Enric last year for his birthday. I was thinking that if going back there again, nothing special anymore. In fact, I wasn't thinking to go for a celebration anywhere.

Till Enric proposed and said he would like to treat my family for a dinner in El Cerdo as a gratitude for accommodating him for the past two months.

Here's a photo after all those pork meat appetizer and main course. Everyone was so full.
Not anymore after my free dessert is out! Everyone got their portion!! Thank you El Cerdo.
Did I mentioned I met Bosco Wong that night? Best night ever! Sorry no proof to show you that I met him. His bodyguards are everywhere. I don't wanna get a temporarily eyeshadow on my eyes nor my new phone smashed.

Oh, by the way my new phone is Mi3. Will share my review about it later in next post.

Thanks to Enric for the dinner and everything. You're the best gift I ever had in my life. GROS BISOUS!
