Just 3 days of work at new place, ambo had been sent to a conference which was held at COLMAR TROPICALE, Bukit Tinggi. [Yeah!]. Alhamdulillah, thank you Allah for the unexpected study trip for ambo. Ambo met new people, expanding the networks and absorbing new experience. Alhamdulillah, praise to the al-Mighty. Let's have a tour from my trip to COLMAR Tropicale:

Missing Episode 33 - My Lecturer

Assalamu'alaikum w.r.t.w.b.t. and Good Day To ALL~

This is not a new picture. During ambo's previous field work in early March 2010, ambo and co-worker to Perak. Ambo usually would call ambo's favorite lecturer, Dr. Shamsul a.k.a. Dr. Shark. Lots to catch up with him. We dined together at Satay Endut in Ipoh City, at a food court next to Gerbang Malam of Ipoh. The satay was not bad.

-half face-

That night Sharky picked ambo and ambo's co-worker at the hotel and it was ambo's first time rided the Hyundai Sonata. It was very spacious and comfortable. Ambo have been dreaming to board that car since in UTP. But he did not permitted. Tried once to scratch the car. Ha ha ha.

He is one of ambo's favorite lecturer. Very closed to ambo. He is the advisor of Tronoh Teater Shop. He always wanted ambo to join the teater. But ambo did not have the confidence to be in front of many crowds. The first meeting with him was during a breakfast in ambo's 2nd year in UTP, if ambo am not mistaken. Then, we became closed. But ambo was not his formal student until ambo's final year. Ambo was inspired by him to take up ambo's major subject in Industrial Environmental Engineering. He promised A for the subject, but ambo got B. In fact it was about EQA1974, the subject of environmental law and ambo was not that expert in law things.

Even though it is about 1 year ambo left UTP, we still keep in touch ^^.

Memory Lane #1 - Bachang Melaka

Assalamu'alaikum w.r.t.w.b.t. and Good Day To ALL~

It was a bit frustrated when you have a lot or even a long list of things in mind, but ended up not doing anything. Dunno which one to start with or tired from just having to think of the list? Ambo like to refresh the events or things of the past through pictures. Thus, ambo have came out with a new type of post: "Memory Lane".

As to initiate it, ambo would like to share this picture:


Who: Ambo and Syahmi

Location: Melaka --> Bachang --> Borther in law's family house

Date: 20 March 2010

Event / purpose: Wedding reception at the groom's house

To Bowl Or Not To Bowl

Assalamu'alaikum w.r.t.w.b.t. and Good Day To ALL~

Alhamdulillah, after 1 month of ambo's birthday, ambo bought a set of to bowl as ambo's birthday present. Ambo is not a pro-bowler but enjoy to bowl. Once, it was ambo's hobby during middle school. But happened to hold when in university as the bowling center was far from campus.

This year ambo's resolved one thing that ambo have longed enough, a set of ambo own bowl:

MAXIM (9lb)

Shoe (6)

Accessory #1

Later after the purchase, ambo registered to become a member of Ampang SUPERBOWL club. Later, ambo can bring to friends to enjoy the privilege together. Alhamdulillah ambo can bowl again with ambo's owned bowling ball and shoes. ^^

To Dine At #1: Restoran Telaga Buruk

Assalamu'alaikum w.r.t.w.b.t. and Good Day To ALL~

Since end of 2009, ambo have been living in Bandar Baru Bangi and there is one place, a restaurant to be specific, that where ambo like to hang out and to dine in: Restoran Telaga Buruk. If it is translated literally to English, it means "Ugly Well Restaurant". Quite hideous it may sound in English. Thus, ambo am sticking with the Malay version which sounds more interesting and classics to ambo. Here is the details of the restaurant:

Name: Restoran Telaga Buruk

Address: Jalan 7/2, Syeksyen 7, 43650 Bandar Baru Bangi, Malaysia.

Map Location:

Restoran Telaga Buruk, Bandar Baru Bangi, Seksyen 7

The owner is a Kelantanese. Ambo have become a friend and a regular customer of his restaurant. His wife is also a Kelantanese and a good cook. She is the Chief Chef of the restaurant. Very well in cooking Kelantan traditional meals, deserts, and pastry. It is the only place that ambo would go when ambo miss my hometown cooking. ^^

The western meal that ambo like at this restaurant is Mixed Meat Grill. Very nice with tangy black pepper sauce. It consists of grill meats of lamb and beef, 2 sausage, deep fried potato, coleslaw and salad. Yummy yummy yummy!

RM13.80 per plate [as 9 May 2010]

If you want to try to dine in at that Telaga Buruk, do give me a call. We can meet there and have sometime to get to know each other :D

Assalamu'alaikum w.r.t.w.b.t. and Good Day To ALL~

Missing Episode 32 - Fisrt 1/4 This Year

Assalamu'alaikum w.r.t.w.b.t. and Good Day To ALL~

What has been happening back few months passed:

1. January and February 2010, ambo were accommodated with lots of works. Early March 2010, ambo had an outstation which had to cover Perak and further north to Kedah State. Sound pretty much big shot of a project. He he he.

2. On the way to a site, after solat Zohor, ambo witnessed an accident. A boy, just finished his school that day was ran over by a motorcycle. The boy was lucky to be said because at that time there was not any dense traffic. To be honest, ambo think the boy was the a bit careless that he did only make one turn view on the right. Ambo hope that he is alright and to recover soon.

calling the ambulance~

3. My sister got married on 13 March 2010. Ambo am happy for her and her husband. Ambo's in law is a mixed of Melaka and Negeri Sembilan. But he is born and raised in Kuala Lumpur. His name is Azwan Fitri. Ambo hope that ambo will get more this coming raya ^^.

4. Alhamdulillah, rezeki dari Allah itu melimpah ruah dan datang dalam pelbagai cara. Allah has been given to ambo many many many lots of things and nikmah. Ambo pray Allah will continue to give ambo many many many of His blessings and nikmah to ambo and everyone. Amin.

"till then.."

Chainned Email #1

Assalamu'alaikum w.r.t.w.b.t. and Good Day To ALL~

This morning ambo (I) got a chained email entitled: 'Corporate Culture'. To ambo (me), it is very interesting on how we see corporate people behave or people in an organization behave from one of many angles. But we tend to see bad behavior rather than good that can be example for all.

These pictures may be true and may be not to a company. Ambo's (my) only interest is just to share what do ambo (I) feel / interpret / understand from these pictures. Ambo's opinions are just the way ambo (I) see things and there is no relation towards others. If so, its just a coincidence and not more than to reminds ambo (me) and others.

CORPORATE CULTURE

Pic.1: How To Save Your Job? [Butt-licking]

Ambo's: there are many ways to get, improve, maintain, and save our career. At the very beginning of each thing we do, we needed to set a good INTENTION with a good will. At the same time to keep the SINCERITY in our heart at all time. Then, to achieve the goals we have to work CORRECTLY and RIGHTFULLY. PRAYS always so that we leave the final results to ALLAH to decide for good deeds we have done.

Being a butt-licker is not a good thing. At the end, you will be hated by your colleagues and stinks!

Pic.2: Meeting [???]

Ambo's: Yes, ambo (I) do agree that in a meeting, sometimes we can generates more ideas - brainstorming group. Through meetings we could ease ourselves for couples of hours from heavy loads. Meetings should have GOALS and TIME-LINES. Without these two, a meeting could go on days without reaching out any goals. What ambo (I) like most having or joining a meeting that, there always at least light refreshments. Could ease a starving stomach. He he he ^^.

Pic.3: Inter-office e-mail

Ambo's: Email? The inbox is always full of unnecessary forwarded emails. Sometimes we always received or forwarded the same email to the same people. The email is just circulating continuously. Instead of emailing to a colleague who is on the same floor and not too far from your desk, WALK to him or her by doing a little exercise. This could save some times if there is a network breakdown and at the same time burning some calories.

Most of the times, we do realize that we are actually wasting our office time by going through the not-so-called-important emails. A reminder to ambo (me) and other that if we are the employees that had signed certain working contract, we are being PAID for what have been DESCRIBED (Job Descriptions) and for the a specific TIME of every working days.

Pic.4: Yearly Performance Interpretation [Just for fun]

Ambo's: some are true to some people and some are not. Let's do not be too JUDGMENTAL. Let's be fair and have a sense of good supposition as well as to be grateful of what we have or obtained. To appreciate LITTLE things could lead to BIG satisfactions.

Pic.5: Organization Chart [Just a bad example]

Ambo's: a good staff came from a good organization. GOOD MANAGEMENTS upon their employees, regarding their payments, workloads, benefits and/or welfare can give good influences to the employees. Their honesty and sincerity in working could increase. Loyalty towards the company unshaken. Their concerns towards the company's image would be stronger.

Bad management? Everyone will know. Even the outsiders would be well informed and the words will spread boundless.

Pic.6: Resources [do not misunderstand]

Ambo's: yes, every thing should be planned WISELY and ACCORDINGLY. Budgets are very important when doing projects. Things would be worse when there is an outburst of budget. If there is some extra, or extra extra extra everyone would be happy ^^.

Nowadays, budgeting also including the hidden cost either from the operational cost or 'under-table' cost. It said to say that it is not a new issue. Bribery history could be traced way back past few centuries. Corruption of a man could be from 3 things: MONEY, WOMEN and . . . . . [ambo (I) forgot the last one]

Pic.7: BONUS

Ambo's: . . . . . Ambo (I) hope that ambo (I) would get bonus this year ^^ and to all my readers and friends, lets work hard so that we will be satisfied when we received our BONUS later on. Be sure to make a good use out of our bonus. (peace -v)

Mamak Stall

Assalamu'alaikum w.r.t.w.b.t. and Good Day To ALL~

Early today, there was a friendly match between Argentina and German for the warm up play before the real World Cup 2010. Ambo drove for the sake of a friend who is a really die-hard and fanatic fan of Argentina, even to claim as his own hometown after the Kajang. Ha ha ha.

Even though we are doing field works, he insisted to night out at the nearest mamak stall to watch the match. So we are staying at D'Vista Hotel in Sungai Petani, Kedah. We arrived at Nasi Kandar Pelita [mamak stall juga~] around 4.15 a.m. and back at the hotel 10 minutes before 6.00 a.m.

Seriously, every time ambo ate mamak stall's meals, ambo will get stomachache. Did spent around 15 minutes and later after Subuh prayer another 10 minutes. It is so achy and painful sometimes. Ambo ordered Roti Canai Telur with cream milk. The same thing happened when ambo at Tronoh 5 years. If had breakfast / lunch / tea break / dinner / supper at mamak stall, i.e.; Ameeth, Salam Corner and etc. ambo will get stomachache.

Ambo xtahu la. Ambo don't know what to say. May be mamak's meals are not that convenient or suitable for ambo's stomach. It is hard for ambo to find a mamak stall that suitable for ambo's stomach, and may be non-exist for ambo's stomach. -_-"

Not to condemn, but this is just ambo's experience, there was one time that ambo desperately had to order roti canai at a mamak stall in Kajang. Like always, roti canai telur 2x. When ambo just about to take home the cooked roti canai, ambo saw the diffuser of roti canai [Penebar roti canai] hands were dirty and his nails were even long and darkish. Ambo felt to puke at the spot. That moment ambo felt so terrible and guilty that ambo did not want to eat the roti canai ambo threw it away and slept hungrily.

Seriously, ambo wonder how come these kinds of people, generally point of view, who are not very keen to cleanliness can still be operating. Are the customers in the Malaysia, Malaysian generally do not concern regarding the cleanliness of their food and the process to make their food? Does halal and haram only are being surfactant considered? Cleanliness is a part of Iman and cleanliness is one of main factors in determining a halal meals or raw food. Please, do not boycott but avoid those things which are known of their haram and those which are SYUBHAH.

Morning Market At Merbau Street

Assalamu'alaikum w.r.t.w.b.t. and Good Day To ALL~

Last holiday at hometown, ambo grabbed the opportunity to follow ambo's mother to one of the earliest morning market in Kota Bharu. It was located at Merbau Street near to Maahad Muhammadi Perempuan and behind flat in the center of the Kota Bharu city. It was like a late market but it started at the dawn and most probably finished by 9 to 10 a.m. You can find anything from head to toe items and raw and cooked meals.

Activities already started after subuh prayer ^-^

We got nasi berlauk for breakfast and lots of kinds of bananas and other fruits and fresh

On that day, we bought nasi kerabu for breakfast and a box of mangoes: gangster type [pauh samseng] and banana: kelat kling type for dessert. Ambo and mother bought two pairs of slippers and some vegetables for lunch later.

Ambo wish that this year and onwards Allah will give more prosperity and wealth to Kelantanese and all Muslims in this world.

Dengue Fever - almost

Assalamu'alaikum w.r.t.w.b.t. and Good Day To ALL~

Ambo pray that all my readers are in good health and happy for anything that your are doing. Ambo was not feeling so well and sick since a couple of weeks ago. Last two nights after talking to ambo's father, he asked me to go to the clinic because he noticed my voiced changed [serak-serak basah, lupe plak nk g test kat karok, he he he :P].

20/2 night, the doctor's name that checked ambo was Dr. Harith. What a coincidence same name as ambo. He he he ;D. After bla bla bla, ble ble ble, and bli blu blo, he decided to test blood ambo for any potential disease. The result came out after 1/2 hour. He said that ambo platelet level was still ok but low and near to the abnormal level [169]. He said that upper respiratory ambo had been infected by virus. The highest percentage of virus which was active is GR% 71.2H. He said that it is a virus of dengue and the threshold level is below than 80%. Although the result shown was 71.2H ambo felt uncomfortable because it is still near to the threshold level. He then prescribed 5 medicines to ambo, including antibiotic and what so ever. He advised ambo to get enough rest and came back after 24hours for another blood test.


To short out the stories, the second time ambo went to the clinic, the previous doctor was not around and another male doctor attended to ambo. He said that ambo needed to continue with the prescribed medicines and to come back for the second blood test on the next day. On the next day, ambo was attended by Dr. Nor Emi and directed ambo to the blood test section. Alhamdulillah the test for dengue was negative and she gave ambo two days of medical certificate (MC) including another two prescribed medicines added.

InsyaAllah, tomorrow ambo will be working as usual.

Missing Episode 31 - Office

Assalamu'alaikum w.r.t.w.b.t. and Good Day To ALL~

-office ambo-

Alhamdulillah, praise to Allah, the Almighty that has given ambo lots of opportunities in life and work. It is almost two months already since ambo started working. Life as a worker is even more broader than as a student, a new chapter of a life-long learning process had began. (-_-)v

GooZEE: PapaGo! AmmaGo!

Assalamu'alaikum w.r.t.w.b.t. and Good Day To ALL~

Alhamdulillah, praise to Allah that one of many items that ambo wanted is in ambo hand. It is a Global Position System (GPS). Nowadays, there are lots of platforms for GPS software as well as the hardware manufacturers.

At first ambo want to buy Garmin product. Garmin function is basically to guide its customers to the desired locations. But with the developing technologies, other brands are also competing to sell their products to the most.

Now you can have an integrated GPS with media player of mp3, mp4, avi; car mp3 modulator and etc. Ambo surveyed and found out that GooZEE is cheaper, much cheaper and has few more extra functions compared to a similar price of a Garmin. There are few more things are unsatisfied and ambo wanted to have some more clarification with the promoter, regarding the Bluetooth and few more, tomorrow if ambo could go at the PC Fair once more. InsyaAllah.

Hopefully with this additional gift from Allah could lead me to many destinations correctly. (^-^)v

PHP's Snapped-shoTs

Among the best memoir of ambo during at Utp was when ambo and few hardcore friends managed to build up and legally opened a new club/society: Peer Helper Program of UTP. It is under the supervision of our beloved counselor and most of us are those with 'problem' and yet were given the chances to improve more forwards. Here are some photos of ambo and peer's members:

Missing Episode 30 - Red Hills Laketown Resort

Assalamu'alaikum w.r.t.w.b.t. and Good Day To ALL~

One of many untold stories and yet to be shared later on is the trip to Bukit Merah Laketown Resort which took place almost a month ago. It was fun and memorable gathering with ambo's dearest next door neighbor and their families.

We did take the package that we could enter all four main places: the orang utan island, the ecopark, lift chair and of course the water park. FYI, if ambo not mistaken, we did get discount of RM5/ticket because we bought the tickets in a group or large amount.

It was ambo's first time to try the water slides: the curvy water slides [which I lost my spectacle], the straight one, the boomerang [or rather as the half-moon] and also the bumpy slide. The one that was thrilling to the most was the boomerang. The conductor without a word pushed ambo to the almost 90 degree slide. The thrill was really exciting but rather more frightening at the same time. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee~

We had a break time at Grik Mont's Peak R&R

My S|ange

Assalamu'alaikum w.r.t.w.b.t. and Good Day To ALL~

Alhamdulillah, since ambo entered UTp, ambo manage to talk to people [other than kelantanese] quite well. To be honest, my 'friends' did have difficulties to digest what ambo said. But again, most of the people that ambo encountered did notice where is ambo origin, KLATE. Eventhough ambo speeking, obviously sang klate ambo would follow. He he he :P

Afterwards, ambo feel that ambo's essence of KELANTANESE has been diluted ever since ambo entered utP. Hu hu hu. Ambo really missed the time where ambo said, others would be in blur state. Ha ha ha :P

Even today, when other asked where is ambo's origin? They would say that ambo not sound like a KELANTANESE. Ambo always feel a bit disappointed because it sounds that ambo have abandoned ambo's essences. (T_T)

Even ambo's family members would tease when ambo accidently not being a KELANTANESE. Sigh~ Ambo will try hard to thicken ambo's essences of KELANTANESE. ^^

Alhamdulillah

Assalamu'alaikum w.r.t.w.b.t. and Good Day To ALL~

Hi fellow friends and readers. I have such great off-time for the past several months. I had been unemployed for almost 7 months and thanks to Allah, the Almighty that I have been accepted to a local company to test my capability and skills for a period of time. Hopefully by the end of this year I would be absorbed as a permanent staff. Insya-Allah.

There are lots of story to be told and shared with the rest of the world. I will try to be active even more through my blog's writing. ;-)
