Randomly….. My employer must be feeling very rich, on the same day as it announced its best fiscal results for a half ever, it also notified us that it has recruited 18 GAs, or as we are now known as, IGs. While we do not cost a bomb, we do not come cheap either. 18 is a big batch and now I must work harder than ever to stand out.

So funny, some of us ran off at 11.30 to this hawker stall to eat some fish noodles. We had to go really early because they run out of fish very fast.......not just any normal fish but apparently called 7 star fish.......quite yummy. By 12.30......the whole place was really full.....apparently this couple have very good business...they decide what days to turn up and what days they are too busy to open shop (headache). And in the morning.. they open at 8 am.. and closes by 10 because they have sold out all their fish. They are quite rich..and have a lot of property here. A very amazing story indeed.

There is now a guy here from Hong Kong. He is about late forties and is very excitable. He speaks extremely fast and says things five times. For example, you can tell him an idea you have and he will say "Oh, good good good good good." Very funny and nice to have around because he seems to speed up the whole office. In fact, the population here has doubled and since the office is small, there is quite a party feel to this place. And it feels great to listen to someone from Hong Kong speak. So nice to the ears. He speaks nothing like FredBear or SoBear and yet, it is very similar………I am trying to imagine FredBear speaking like this. Very funny effect, since this guy is actually a big manager, so has a lot of ideas to implement. He speaks almost 200 words a minute !!!! After a few hours, I realizes he reminds me of JeffBear !!!! He talks and half-smiles at the same time….aha… this reminds me of Bowling Tuesdays. I should have just bowled the whole year instead of just doing the last half of the season. It would have been interesting to hang out more with JeffBear and NickBear more….

After a few episodes of Numb3rs, I do not think it is as good as I first thought. It is basically like CSI but not as exciting. And sometimes, they hardly uses any maths at all. I guess I thought it was good since the first episode was about counting cards in Poker and Blackjack at a casino. Then the next episode, they only used Maths to calculate ice melting. Not as calculatingly cool as it was meant to be. So it is not as good. On the other hand, CSI is getting more exciting and I find I like CSI New York better than CSI Miami. Favourite show is still House and I find that Nip/Tuck is not as nice as it is hyped to be about. Fear Factor is quite stupid as is 30 seconds to Fame. America's Funniest Home Videos is also an IQ decreasing show. So far, the best shows to watch are House, Project Runway, Jamie Oliver, Joey and The Suite Life. Oh and One in A Million.

The supermarket ran out of sausages. In my current situation that was a disaster !! What was I going to eat? But I realize now as I am typing this that I could have just gone into Giant instead of the convenience store underneath the office. So since there were no sausages, I bought a Magnum. Yum. Yes I realize that it is an Ice-cream and therefore detrimental to dieting..but no sausages………………..

Ahhaa.aa….the HK guy is so funny. I just like to hear him talk. His accent is soooo nice. Seriously, I hope my future girlfriend can speak Canto with a HK accent. It is sooooooooooooooooooo cute. He is still talking away. He refers to himself as Michael and not I. Hahahhahahah.

I realize this post is pretty long but that is because I am releasing a few days worth at a time. You do not know how hard it is to get a computer nowadays during school holidays. The place where I work is the only shopping/recreation/working/everything centre. There are no other complexes as big or air conditioned..which is pretty sad. And therefore EVERYONE comes here. So it becomes really full. Imagine if MidValley, Pyramid, 1U, Curve, Jusco, Klang Parade, SungeiWang all closed down and KLCC became the only shopping centre around in the Klang Valley. It would be chaos. And so it is here.

Anyway remember the direct selling thing that I was conned into going...I forgot to say that the speaker actually farted in his speech. Accidentally just as he was bending over. Eww.

Had another big seafood dinner yesterday, Yum but craving for some variety...Japanese food or maybe Vietnamese. You realise that you get to taste a lot of different things in Australia. And get spoilt when you come back to Malaysia and there are not enough food places to eat from and/or costs too much.

Only about 10 days to go !!! I cannot wait to go back to KL. Though I am seriously getting used to the quite routine life here. If you are seriously lazy about changes to life and do not need any pace in your life at all, I recommend you come here since things here hardly change even after 10 years.

There is the amazing pair of cuffed, belted and zipped boots that I pass everyday to work. It is pleading with me to take it home. I am still considering. I love it ! Or at least I think I do right now....
