倦鸟

你相信人定胜天,还是冥冥中自有安排?

我想像自己坐在世界的角落,像一只飞得累了的倦鸟,静静地看这世界的每一个动脉。看看人们如何为生活打拼,而我,却如置身事外,冷眼看世界。

后来倦鸟发现,自己怎么会微笑,怎么会掉泪? 原来,自己从来没有离开过这个纷扰的世界。不要再自欺欺人了。

昨日,今天, 明天

告别了昨日,今天依然美好。

有所期待的明天,让生活变得更加有冲劲。

No Boss Day

Today my department is NBD! Don't know what is NBD? Oh...u must know this term. It means a NO BOSS DAY.

My bosses are having the GAC meeting in new HQ. We came in at 9am and all gaher near to our workstation and talk talk talk...all about dogs! It was started with Yan Tze brought in a doggie travel bag to second sell to Daphne. She bought the bag at more than RM100 and not using it anymore. It is still in a very good condition, almost look like a new one. So she is selling that bag to Daph. Then we talked about dog foods, dog house, dog mating process, and ...... tons of dog stories. It was, of course, never ended that fast untill around 10:30am. See how well a bunch of ladies can talk when they share common interest. No wonder there's a Chinese proverbs said:"2 ladies = a bunch of ducks!"

Unleash

I figured I can't always control Hilton by the leash since he is growing bigger each day. So, I started to let Hilton to walk around the neighborhood alone these days. He is now learning how to avoid from hitting by vehicles, not to border people passing by, and do not enter to others' houses.

In fact I should have let him learn all these when he was little. I was too protective and was so worried he would be hit by car. Now that he is so bg in size, people would rather scared he would attack. So far, Hilton has shown his friendliness to everyone, except one or two who attempted to hit him, and he was tried to defense by a few barks.

He looks really enjoy walking unleash because he has the freedom of movement and can run reallly fast from one end to another. You could see him resting relaxfully on the floor after the walk. And then fall asleep with snoresssssss...... :P

Hilton

After telling so many depressing stories, I think it's time to cheer up a bit by my gorgeous baby - Hilton!
He loves smelling the flowers...The owner could be worried of the flowers being eat by this big fellow. :P


3As Agency?

The agency has really get on my nerves! What kind of client service is that? It's sucks!

Do you have an agency that works for you before which always need you to remind them on the deadline, call them to find out the outcome, if not they will never call back,....?

Me: Ms M, may I have your staff Ms. Mel's handphone number? (she was not in the office)
Ms M: Oh yeah, we just came out from a meeting and I will get her to call u.

So I was waiting for one hour, no one call me to follow up. And finally, I get on hold of Ms. Mel.
Me: Hi there, have you saw my email?
Ms. Mel: I have not look into it yet. What's that?
Me: ...the insert design, I have forwarded the changes requested by our partner to you earlier and told Ms M to get you call me asap. Anyway, can you look into it and get your creative people to revert to me asap.
Ms. Mel: I have to see how much is the changes, (sounds so impatience) ...
Me: You know that we are meeting deadline today and every minute we missed is the cause of delay. Could you please go through it now?
Ms. Mel: ......

Then, we both hung up the phone. And, I waited for another 20 minutes she didnt call me back (in my email, I reminded her a few times to call me before go ahead with the changes, as I have to explain to her before she goes wrong with it). So, I pick up the phone and ring her again.

She then sounded very impatience and said: I have already passed them to the creative team, what else that is not mentioned?

.......................................

Can someone assume that they know if they in fact dont really know what are the requirements? Is that how the 3As agency should work?

I believe the quality of staffs, the client services of the company is more important on top of all. Dont you think so?

看病

生病窝在家里无所事事,好多的回忆自然重现脑海里。

犹记得我刚到美国时,生病了,不能立刻看医生,还要和医生预约,而且不是每个医生都会愿意给你看病,必须是自己注册的医生。 那时,我自己开车到另一个小镇去。 到了那里才发现原来如此。 后来,Mary给我和他的医生预约,我又开车到另一个小镇去。看完医生,还要开车另一个小镇去买药。 程序有够复杂了吧。

现在想想,好像马来西亚的生活简单多了。至少生病时如此。
