Year 2008 is going to be history after today. I wish all the bad luck, sickness, obstacles & sadness will be gone with 2008.
This year, things are all mess up including mee hopping from one job to another until jobless; family member caught with serious illness; family financial crisis (!?); bank & EPF matters of my dad still pending due to several reasosn; and with all these things adding up, I have to admit that i got low EQ.
However, I've a good beginning for year 2009 as I've got a new job!
Looking forward for a brand new year! Wishing all my friends & family a properous year!

Celebrations
Sunday, 21st December is the Winter day (冬至) of Chinese calendar, on the same day, BK also had a pre-X-mas party at her place.
Everyone enjoy the night with great food & laughter.
We had our glutinous rice ball at home in the afternoon before attending the party. Baby ViVi didn't like the tender soft rice balls... she only drank the ginger soup.
Look at she posing for mummy...

不眠的夜~ 茶聚後遺症
昨晚與前同事茶聚，由於下大雨到處都交通堵塞，我們四人就擇近捨遠，到洗都一家著名馬來「餐廳」吃飯。
這家餐廳的前身只是普通的「大排檔」，隨著日益著名、收入漸豐，內部的裝潢也日益美化，食物的價碼也高漲了不少。我想，昨天是我最後一次到那家「餐廳」用餐了。
不知是否是太久沒有喝拉茶，昨晚喝了一杯熱茶後，我竟然失眠了！整晚躺在床上，我的肉身已想休息，腦袋卻是精神亢奮！
今早被電話吵醒，哦，是好消息！一個客戶會過賬翻譯費給我，哈哈！（雖然不多，總算收到錢了！可是，我卻依然睡不著~）
昨夜，大家碰面大吐苦水，真是每人都有一本煩惱經。訴一訴苦，明天又是一條好漢，大家要繼續打拼！
今年大家似乎都不太順利，涵說：要不要去拜拜？當時一口拒絕了，可是回家想了想，可能去拜拜也好，哈哈！我只祈求平安、健康。還有還有，找到一份新工作。

偏見
當我還是少年的時候，曾經有一張關於星座的書籤，不知為何我一直記得上面對於「水瓶座」的分析，雖然不明白卻記得很清楚。
「水瓶座的人喜怒哀樂形於色，要學習穩重。」
當年我只看懂「穩重」，什麼是「形於色」？多年後才明白其道理，再開始慢慢學習穩重。雖然起步慢了，總好過永遠沒有改變吧！
可是我發現，我始終改變不了我對人的第一印象。我討厭的人，很難會喜歡；我喜歡的人，卻很容易被討厭。是，我對人對事都會存有偏見。
我討厭的人，再怎麼說都難以改變我的看法，除非有特殊情況，讓我有機會慢慢了解對方，培養感情，否則，很難會變成朋友。可是，既然我已經討厭對方，自然就不會浪費時間去了解他了。所以，討厭要變成喜歡，難！
我喜歡的人，若發現他／她原來有我所不知道的陰暗面，之前的好感就會完全化為烏有。我會直接與之保持距離，甚至不動聲色淡化交情，慢慢斷絕來往。喜歡，所以無法接受他／她的另一面，就很容易變成討厭。
難道不可以繼續「假假地」做朋友嗎？我做不到。在這方面，我還是「形於色」的人。
對於一個人的偏見，需要很多時間去改變，也視乎對方值不值得我改變。通常，只有捨棄。

ANOTHER Job interview
After being disappointed in October -- I failed in a job interview, I got myself another interview today. The company is located in the busiest city area, Jalan Sultan Ismail and whether I am getting the job or not, I have to pay RM 9.50!!! Why the parking fees in KL is so expensive!!!
Since I quit my job in Mid September… (actually, it was not long ago) I started to feel the financial pressure within the family, especially when my freelance work is not rewarding as I expected.
Financial independent is very important, for all women, married or single. A stable income, regardless the amount, to mee is equivalent to my dignity and pride. I can’t imagine the future life IF I am fully depending on my husband, even for a penny to spend on.
Get back to the workplace for money, is also for getting back my dignity (although I still have it now…)
Anyway, go back to work in January 2009 is my initial plan when I quit the job… but I didn’t expect the financial crisis which affected my job hunting now.
Yes, I have to belief that is a 10-year cycle where economic will goes down every 10 years. I still remember when I graduated in year 1998, most of my coursemates were struggling to get a good job… so, this is happening to me again in 2008!!!

閒情小酌
閒來無事，做了一杯酒精冷飲，哈哈，不就是喝酒嗎！？我承認我遺傳了老爸的壞習慣，愛喝酒。
早前在浮羅交怡（哦，此島好像改了什麼名字…忘了…）買了一支伏加Absolut Apeach，原本就已按捺不住想要嚐一嚐，卻沒有適當的時機。
上兩個月終於開封了，蜜桃的香氣撲鼻而來 -- 我的天，真香！我最愛蜜桃。偶爾也會買罐頭蜜桃作芝士蛋糕。
結果是「只聞其香」，還是沒有喝著。
晚飯後，從娘家回到泗岩沫，看到冰箱有一罐低卡可樂，好，就地取材試一試可樂桃子的搭配吧。
結果只有一個字：贊！
可樂將蜜桃的香味引發至極限，每一口都有香甜的蜜桃味，彷彿沒有一絲的酒精氣味。
香香甜甜很容易入口，也很容易在不知不覺中喝下過量的酒精而醉倒！ （雖說在家不怕醉，我只是用少少酒而已啦！）
喜歡喝一杯的話，試一試吧！
等
10月份很忙，翻譯的工作幾乎是結伴而來，在忙亂中也有一點安心，想說沒有全職工作也不愁一點收入都沒有。
可是1個月轉眼就過去了，答應付款的客戶至今沒有讓我看到錢。只有等，只能等。個個都說「很快很快」，可能他們的「很快」都是要超過1~2個月的等待吧！
剛剛電郵了「催款」信，說實在，我對於打電話「追賬」很不在行，總是會覺得很不自在。唉，馬死落地行，我要自強！

一個人
今晚到好友家作客，閒閒過了一個晚上。開車回家時，突然有一種一個人的孤寂。
家裡沒有人等我。大寶出國玩兒去了，小寶在娘家。
今晚的聚會延續上週日的婚宴，談的話題還是婚姻、家庭和小孩。結婚，是兩個人在人生路上的另一個理程碑，未來的日子有一個人相伴，就算會有爭執也不愁寂寞。可是，兩個人住在一起，心卻是分開的，一紙婚書又好像沒有什麼意義。
一個人，也要好好地過。
