The time when I hate paperwork

-
This entry is certainly not a wordless entry afterall.  Talking about mood swing...hmmmm.    At times I enjoy my work and sometimes I simply hate it. Especially when paperwork is concerned, having to handle too many at one time and not knowing where to start. And it gets worst if the papers start to come continuously like a chain reaction.




The above picture is a normal thing for me. One week  I get to look for files and go through for some infos. And for the last 3 weeks I've been running in and out of my room to the filing room to get this file or that file.   And no, its not all in a day's work, in fact there is more to come.  The worst part is you have to dig for yesteryear infos that almost everyone has forgotten and suddenly out of the blue somebody would pop out the magic words.  You'll be spending hours searching high and low for the required information.  Consider yourself lucky if you do find it and if it is not available, you go to the next stage.  Asking around and making calls.  Another problem arises when you spend too much on the searching part and that is backlogging of other tasks.  And I'm not going into details.   Pening2...And who says making phone calls after calls is fun, it's dead tiring.   At times I do get mental block when suddenly something just comes to a halt. Hate that but that prompts you to think or act fast.  It's not easy sometimes but somewhere somehow you learn how to sort it out. But of course after getting throbbing headaches and at times it feels as if your eyes is burning...somehow my prayers were answered.



One might look like this  by the end of the day(dishevelled hair and you'll be blinking your eyes so often you start to do some little massages on the forehead and take off the glasses)   I normally would get up from my seat and get  myself a coffee fixed and relax at one corner just sipping my coffee quietly. After feeling much better after that, I would continue.

I am dead tired actually and I need a vacation....................

He he that sounds like me when I used to work full time years ago. I hate paper work especially filing and despatch and not meeting people. That was why I asked to be transferred to front desk so I could meet people. When stressed I drove long distance from Lutong to Luak after work just to wind off.

Those were the days...

Tapi kinek tok pun MI kekadang need to wind off, even if 'profession' dah changed he he..
Sebab ya la kekadang mok 'chill out'.

No matter what, MI believe you are someone who loves your work.

Stay cool Nur :)

It's funny, in an age of paperless office, some info are just elusive from the system. I do face this sometimes and understand when my colleague had to dig those physical files and make calls after calls for info I need.

I like Puan Isah's idea of chillin' out :)

Bahasa Melano Balingian

-
My trip to Miri not only gave me the opportunity to reunite with old friends that I missed dearly but I also took the golden opportunity to learn more about my dad's language. My dad is a Melanau from Kpg Suyong, Balingian. Their melanau dialect differs from the rest of the Melanau dialects from Mukah, Oya, Rejang, Dalat, Matu, Igan & Bintulu. Sad to say that this particular dialect is slowly disappearing. Even my aunt Regina or fondly known as Usu Ina who is married to a melanau from Bintulu is at loss with her own Balingian dialect at times. So far, I've noticed that only my dad, my first cousins Lai & Kak Senah are still speaking this beautiful dialect fluently. Usu Ina converse mostly in the Mukah dialect and I observed that she would refer to Lai if she was not sure of the language itself. My dad and his siblings back in Balingian still converse in their own dialect but once they are out of their kampung, they would converse in the Mukah dialect again. Mmmmmmmmmmm.

oooo En Haris......Izzah............Ombak Rindu

Finally, I get to watch Ombak Rindu (OR) with friends last night. So here goes my review on the movie. 1) The scenery is simply fantastic and I just can’t help admiring the beautiful sceneries. It was indeed a sight to behold. So a beach-lover like me definitely enjoys and love all the beautiful sceneries. 2) Loved Hariz’s kampong house…byk modern facilities tapi nang kacaklah rumah ya.. 3) Dari mula sampei abis filem ya, the kitten doesn’t seem to grow up....go figure that out!!!…. 4) As expected some of my favourite scene in the novel was scrapped off especially bab Hariz n Izzah, there are quite a few intimate scenes (those who’ve read the novel knows, yang belum baca, sila beli dan baca k);I guess writer/director chose not to put those in the movies for sensitivity reasons and I think AA would want to think twice before acting certain scenes especially some intimate scenes with MK. 5) The OST was simply superb and the duet song by Hafiz AF7 and Adira AF8 complemented

Thoughts and rambles

It's been a while since my last posting.   Year in year out, I think I have such a boring life.  Initially, when I started this blog, I wanted to be a food blogger and sharing my passion for cooking and baking.  Before the existence of FB, blogging was the thing then.  I thought of trying to be one and yes, the first few years of blogging I was actively blogging, practically about everything. And then some turn in my life affected me so much that I began to drift away for a while.  Pic credit to Google.
