Tonsilitis

my throats hurts..my head hurts..my chest hurts...eveything hurts!!

I managed to get a medical leave from work and classes as well. Got lots of zzzzzs but i think i need more. I know i need more. Thank god Ham was around to drive me to the hospital when i reached KB at 10.30pm, all shivering and cold. Think thats bad enough? I waited for 2 agonising hours then saw the doctor for only 2 mins.Life is such a BITCH sometimes.

I hangout with Aziz yesterday in my kitchen and we were discussing how tired we have been lately. And I shared with him how i have been feeling from work. To my surprise, its normal.

Just to share with you what those feelings were.:-
It feels like your whole body feels numb and your mind feels so space out.
You leave work, do your usual activities after that and start re-evaluating what you've achieved at the end of the day. I felt, for the past two weeks i have achieved...

nothing..
zero...
one big fat O...


But, im happy the fact that i can always a healthy conversation with aziz because he never fails to help balance my thoughts. After hours of chitchatting and mocking at other people, alhamdullilah i feel more of confidence today. Mind you, I got praised on my IDP in the office yesterday in front of everyone. Sorrylah, after all the hard work i put in...i deserved it..
I deserved it and am bloody proud of my self.

Oh? The telefon rings..
"Hello.. this is patricia.."
"Uhuuum...sure thing... oh?"
"Serious? wow!? Oooooooh! Im so flattered!!"

Everyone... my day has just gotten even better!.. Allah, I thank you for eveything.

and Tonsilitis - You're a bad start to a good begininng.

Bee-Outch..

The Pretender


Picture this scenario.

End of the day, you're driving, your body slightly moving to the rhythm of your favourite mp3, the weather is just nice and you're self analizing what had happen to your day. You're in peace because its just you and the music. Thats why its always a good idea to change your cd's or mp3's. Main objective - not to fall asleep in the car of course.

I came across a song which i think relates to how i have been feeling from work for the past 2 months. As soon as that MP3 plays, i silently smile and start singing( & cursing ). Ahhhh..just what i need. Music Therapy.

Sumthing to share with other commuters.

1. Im sure all of you would agree that our local radio stations dont always play great songs all the time! (speaking of which, is it just me or has the stations been playing oldies songs abit too much lately?) This is where backup (such as your burned cds / mp3 comes in handy)

2. Cigarrettes and Coffee. When these two combine, its amazing how you eyes stays open the whole night. Even when you're working the next day. But im good. Just get use to it.

3.Snacks like "Samboi" or other chips. I tend to munch on my sweet dried seedless prune samboi. They are like totally sour but so-the-very Heaven sent! Along with Cigarrettes and coffee too of course.

Oh...back to the song. Anyone heard of the Pretenders by Foo Figthers? Its amaziiiingggggg. the best they've done so far with this album. I feel this song expresses how i have been feeling both from work and classes. Ive been feeling abit down lately. But after listening to this 24/7, i think i feel a bit better now. Im even inspired to play drums mind you! Perhaps i would suggest sayang to play this song. (How about it baby?)
you rock guys!

Effy's back from kl and she's here for only a week of raya. She's then heading back this saturday. Fel on the other hand is going back up to her bandar branch this week & Shikin is going back to work in November. *sigh* I cant wait for our next lepak2 session again. Pat's Kitchen awaits.Our life dramas itching to be told and shared.

MIss ya girls. Bee-outch

Back to work...Boring!

Today is the 6th day of raya and I'm back in the office already. As I type here, wishing for me to be back on my comfortable bed and then remembering that i have forgotten to bring my camera memory card to show you the pictures taken, then remembering that i need to start on my one week sitting assignment - essay on some case study, then remembering i have to finish off my people survey, then my Goals and performance report which i have to double check to ensure that it links to my development as stated in my Individual Development Plan by end of the month.

There goes my week of rest... Damnit.

Life..life..life...

Its been like…. How long since I started this blog? Man, you do not underestimate the tiredness of commuting. An hour & half drive can really drain your energy. But nevertheless, Im determine to do this. You’re never too old to catch your dreams. You’re never too old or late to do anything.

Ive started classes since 3rd of September and so far so good. For the benefits of everyone, Ive just embarked on my Higher National diploma in Business Management. Sounds fancy? Ok-oklah.You may asked WHY NOW? Well, I’ll tell you why..

I finished my o’level as a young naïve girl, with the will to work –earn money- and then shop till you drop drive. Nevertheless, my oh-so-strict mum said to me one day ..” You’ll never get anywhere without a qualification or a degree! There is too much competition out there. You have no idea!” Yes..yess… mum you are right.. 2 years have gone by and she is still right. So I decided to get a diploma on Business Computing with Focus Informatics School and managed to get credits in the end… barely..

But of the memories… going to class late, skipping classes ( There was a time when a so called concerned teacher actually wrote me a letter asking whether I was experiencing any personal problem that leads to my absence in her classes.) Mmmmmmm… no problem, just lazy. Oh, I must mentioned this is when I met my 3 bestest of friends.. Shikin, Effy & Felecity ( I love you bitches!)

Girlfriends for life - This was when I was 8 months preggie.

Another 8 years have passed ( with my mum is still being right) and I am now a convert, married to a wonderful man , hanging around with my four beautiful-amazing-intelligent best frens ( that’s you my bitches) and yes everyone, a 10 months old baby.. My Aiman!
I am confident to tell you that these are a few of the best things that happen in my life.


Aiman.. cheeky pose

Back to school – Yup, I am now doing my HND part time. The classes are from Mondays to Thursdays, 6.15-9.15pm. Lets talk about the expenses. Every month, I have to cough out $350 ( for classes ) and $200 for the car fuel. The course is bloody 3 ½ years! I wonder how saggy my breasts will be by then….. I really wonder..

I had to really discuss with my family on how I needed to pursue my HND. One was the baby. Who will be taking care of Aiman? We have the maid and I thank god she makes a good nanny so far.

Mum is now currently working with Jerudong International School as a Admin Assistant cum Student Counselor sum Borders Tutor. Lots of responsibilities.. especially when you are to take care of the kids of VIPs. But mum tells me that the children are all right. So far, they haven’t given her a hard time Alhamdullilah. So, with her in Jerudong with a place to stay, I have the convenience of putting the maid and the baby under mum’s care when I’m not around especially when Ham’s away ( My hubby’s flies buses. These buses have wings. You figure it out).

Looks like I have to continue or break my life story into pieces. It’s too long to write it in one topic. Shall we continue another time? I think we shall or else I’d bore you to death.
Im still getting the hang of putting in pictures into the blog so do bear with me. Until then, Over and out.
