I am a damn Gemini! Every article i have ever read about a gemini relates to me. I am a gemini in every way possible. :( / :)

Why is it bad?
It's bad because i can't never make up my mind about anything. It takes me hours to decide on 2 pieces of clothing. It takes me minutes to decided what i want to eat. It takes me days to make a decision on a crucial matter. It takes me forever to decide what i want to do with my life. I keep changing my mind about my job...about people....about almost everything. I can like a person today and hate him tomorrow. Today i hate my job with a passion, then tomorrow it is ok, and the next day it is a hell hole. Hell, i can't even decide who i have a crush on. One day, it is this guy, and the next day it is another. But of course, that is the lamer side of me that doesnt come out too often. So there it is. I am an ever changing person. Not a good decision maker..and certainly not one with stable emotions either because my emotion can change from bitterly depressed to flying high among the stars. :(

Why is it good?
I guess it means i am more laid back. I am free. Nothing really weighs me down when i am happy. I remember losing a whole bag of accessories the other day. Mind you, the bag included some of the latest accessories that i had bought. My cousin freaked out more than i did. I was like, 'oh well, i can't do much about it. It's gone'. And she looked at me like i was nuts. So yeah, sometimes i am too laidback that it even kills me.

According to the Wikipedia:

Gemini is an astrological sign, which originated from the constellation Gemini, and is the third sign of the zodiac. Gemini is classed as a Positive or masculine, extravert sign; its element is Air and its Quality is Mutable.[3] Traditionally in astrology Gemini is ruled by the planet Mercury. The sign opposite to Gemini is Sagittarius. Under the tropical zodiac, Gemini is occupied by the Sun from May 24 to June 23, and under the sidereal zodiac, it is currently from June 15 to July 15.
In astrology the astrological signs represent twelve equal segments or divisions of the zodiac. According to astrological beliefs, celestial phenomena reflect or govern human activity on the principle of "as above, so below", so that the twelve signs at the same time are held to represent twelve basic personality types or characteristic modes of expression.[4] The scientific community generally considers astrology as a pseudoscience or superstition.[5][6] ; yet despite this, belief in astrology remains widespread.[7][8][9][10]

The Classic IQ Test

My Result: Visual Mathematician

You have a strong ability to process visual-spatial and mathematical information. These skills combined with your strengths in logic are what make you a Visual Mathematician.

You're able to understand patterns visually and in numbers. That means your mind can create a mental picture for any problem. In addition to that skill, you possess an intelligence that allows you to apply math to that picture, too. That helps you manipulate multiple parts of the picture (or problem) to come up with a solution. You have many skills that are critical to success and problem-solving. Your talents help you understand the "big picture," which is partly why people may turn to you for direction — especially in the workplace. You flourish in environments where tasks are clearly defined, and you are a whiz at improving processes and making things more efficient. Your ability to detect patterns and your skills in math and logic, make it natural for you to come up with ideas and theories that simplify processes for everyone.

Outside of work, Visual Mathematicians tend to do well at strategic activities like chess. It must be that ability to recognize patterns — both as they are and how they develop. Regardless of how you put your mind to use, you've got a great set of talents. You will be able to envision a clear path and calculate the risks, and more importantly, the rewards, of anything you take on.

Which Harry Potter Character Are You?

My Result: Ron Weasley

Ever get the urge to trick your friends into eating bogey-flavored Every Flavour Beans? Do you laugh when your mates fall off their broomsticks (or, bikes)? No doubt, you're usually the person at the back of the room, not paying attention and cracking jokes — and that's why people love to be around you.


While you're definitely a class clown, you still aren't all laughs at all times. You're loyal and committed and you care deeply for your close friends. Red-haired or not, you've got a charm all your own, and we're willing to bet you have more than one fan club. Wingardium le-VIO-sa!

Shopaholic meets

Sitting here on my favourite sofa, at the starbucks in Kuantan Berjaya Megamall drinking Mocha Praline Frappucino (trying it for the first time! = It's okay but not as good as Java Chip) and eating my all time favourite chicken pie. Thank God for Vincent Tan and Berjaya Megamall. Else, life here,in kuantan would be as dry as living on the sahara dessert.

This week hasnt been very good. First of all, i have been having loads of arguments with me madre. Her need to dominate and control me has reached a critical point. I feel claustrophobic and the need to break free. She has been calling me the past week everyday just to ask me where i am? It's always, "when are you going back home?"....goshhh.....i can't take it no more. I told her other day, as long as i am single and unmarried, she can control and monitor my every action...what happens when i am no more single?...Maybe she will call my husband and ask where i am?....LOL....Just the thought of it is hilarious.....

Oh well....this is nothing as compared to what awaits me if i get a transfer back to kl....i have only 2 options then : To find a place in town, which my dad will object to...., and 2nd to get married, lol, as if it is that easy...

What is happening to my Malaysia?

This weekend has been quite a thought stirring one. Not to mention one that brought about feelings of disappointment, frustration and curiosity. What was the culprit? : Civilization + Mindset change.

They say that along with the advancement of technology, everything changes. An upcoming town center will change the scenario of the town, but sadly never the towns people. That is exactly what is happening in the scenario of the world. While i was coming back with a colleague on Thursday morning from Kuantan, we talked about work ethics, about justice at the work place, about favouritism, about a just appraisal, about brain drain, about methods to stop brain drain etc.

At the end of it all, it left me wondering, ' when will our mindset change'? And then today, when i switch on the television, i see scenes of the protest in Malaysia being aired on Al-Jazeera. And while everyone who is on the government side, is wondering why this, i who am also on the govt side am wondering, why are the muslims causing the downfall of Islam? Do people not realize that, one by one, all the muslims countries seem to be in turmoil right now? Iraq, Afghanistan, then Iran had issues, Indonesia, Pakistan, Lebanon and the list goes on....Now , it is Malaysia. Are we implementing someone's plan? Mostly, the culprits behind all the chaos in these countries, are the Muslims themselves. I am a Muslim and i am asking, instead of supporting your own Islamic country, instead of ensuring a good education for your children, instead of working hard to make a decent and lawful living, instead of proving how beautiful a religion Islam is, why are we causing riots and chaos and giving the others a chance to see the bad side of Islam, which has never existed but made to exist by us? The beauty in the religion has been tainted by OUR behaviour, OUR actions.....God says, fight with knowledge,fight with truth....the superior ones in history have always been the ones who have invented things, the ones who have found countries, the ones who have made a stand, the ones who have ruled gloriously and conquered bravely...not those who have cowardly created riots, caused harm to others, those who have cause innocent blood to flow free but those who have used their knowledge, facts and truth to make a stand and gain respect.
Lets prove to the world , the beauty of this religion, by proving our capabilities to the world, by increasing the literacy level in our countries, by producing more graduates who can teach and lead the future generation, by stabilizing our current economy, by increasing and encouraging morality among the youth, by doing charity and showing benevolence to decrease poverty among all human beings, muslim or not, by having more diplomatic ties with other islamic countries and by supporting our fellow Islamic countries against the others (for a good course, of course).....we need to get out priorities right. If we can do these, we can be at par with other countries, if not economically, or technologically but intellectually......
I hate to see that, after years of independence, after so many talked about technological advancement, after multiple visits to the moon, that racism still exist...the colour of ones skin is still used to differentiate people and capability....that we are still claiming our nationality without truly meaning it, with no colour, education,status or even language barrier amongst us. When will we stop polluting the environment, and realize its importance? That what is gone, is forever gone....Whose earth is this anyway?

The most negative of entries

This is probably the most negative of all my entries. There i was, hoping against hope that my appeal for a transfer to KL would be granted by my current management. I go see my manager and i tell him,"I don't like my job. I want to do something else. I am losing interest and it is not good for the section." And to my satisfaction, he says,"I won't stop you. I'll bring this up during the "XXXX" meeting and let them know of your intentions. Pray that it goes well." I walk out of the room , smiling and thinking , 'Thank God my boss understands me'.

2 days ago, i receive 2 phone calls from 2 of the subsidiaries that i had applied to and they informed me that my wonderful HR rejected the offer and didnot want me to leave. It was difficult to digest but i took it as i expected it to come. Today, a little birdie tells me that it was the-above-oh-so-sweet manager who blocked my exit. Yes, the sly creep. I use to have some respect for the fellow, but now i have zilch. I would have taken it well, if he had told me himself that he could not allow me to leave and not give me all the hope and then backstab me. I hate him with all my heart.:(

I can't foresee myself being here another 2 years. I just can't. Nothing wrong with Kuantan. It is just me. A colleague who treats me well when he wants to and keeps indirectly or directly emphasizing that "i am not good enough", a boss who couldn't care less about what i want, a manager who backstabs me, "some" technicians who don't seem to treat me like a superior due to my lack of knowledge and gender......why do i need this? I DON'T. I hate my job. I hate the bureaucracy. I hate the politics and the work ethics. I hate the mindset and the subtle racism. AAAAAGGGHHHH. Am i asking for too much?

On a happier note, i have made some very good friends since i started working at ***, without who, i would have become insane here. Thank peepol! * BIG HUG*

Also, the past week has been too funny. A guy managed to make me like him in 3 freaking hours. 3 hours!!!! That is a record breaking time. Unfortunately, he has someone and i was building castles in the air. Sometimes, i wonder, do men make you swoon after them intentionally, or otherwise. I think the former. It seemed like he was trying to tell me that i was more than a normal friend by opening up to me about his entire life.....I thought i had become a good friend. And i would have liked that but instead a few days later, he ignores me. And i am wondering, why? Well, i shall leave it at that. Although, i have developed a crush on him,I am not going to throw myself over him , like "others". But i have to say, some men definitely seem like that;Attention deficit creatures.

Time to leave Starbucks and head home. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
