It has been very long since I last posted a single alphabet on this blog of mine. To be frank, I do not really see the importance of constantly updating my blog as there is not much reader anyway.
Without delaying any furhter, listed below are top 5 reasons why I have been procrastinating for the past 2 months:
5.) My blog does not have much reader to worry about. I can safely postpone my next update to a year later and still, none of you would be yelling at me to pen something down. I write for myself and those close to me, not for the public.
4.) I have been playing Silkroad Online a lot recently. Compared to the other MMORPG like Maple Story, Silkroad Online is definitely much more exciting and captivating. The job system is a good diversion when you are too bored of non-stop grinding and leveling. It is just too bad that I discovered this game a little too late. If I were still jobless, expect me to go around killing noobs. :D
3.) Working life in Dell sucks... I mean it sucks away the essence of life from me. By the time I reach home after work, I am either too tired or sleepy that I do not have much personal time left. The amount of tax to pay for earning money is pretty ridiculous as well. Working is wallet taxing, mentally taxing and physically taxing. WTF?!
2.) Recently I have been successfully assimilated into the Enterprise Technical Support department. To be frank, I missed my Precision Workstation department colleagues very much. Adjusting myself in a new working environment and team has never been easy that I have even considered throwing down the letter.
1.) MY GIRLFIEND IS IN PENANG! :D Unfortunately, she will be going back to her university this coming early July. Good things do not last long.
There you go. Finally my blog is updated again. ;)

OK, I assume that you know am I ok?
First time visit your blog, and guess what ... can't find a place to write something personal to you .. WTH .. well .. I mean where should i write something personal without being read by anyone else except you? I know you know who am i right? So it doesn't matter for me to write down my name here, as I don't want others to remember me saying What the Heck after all. Haha .. So wanna answer my question now? how much is ur OT pay? Anything u wanna tell me here? and it is so funny that Lavander is so naive until dont know what is the term "eating icecream" .. man, you really teaching others the bad things in your blog...
anonymous:
My OT pay depends on what day the OT falls on. Let's take Saturday and Sunday as examples. If I work on Saturday, I shall get 1.5x the normal pay per hour. On Sunday itself, I can get 2x for every single hour. Public holiday would net me 3x per hour.
However, things are not as rosy as you imagined it to be. To be VERY frank, technical support is not a very stable / predictable field. There are a few things that I have to take care of:
1.) system must be recovered to its optimal state
2.) customer is satisfied with the service performed
Both of these requirements MUST be met or else, it is not going to be something pretty. But tell me, who on Earth can control the feelings / emotions of the customers?
Sometimes the customer is very friendly on the telephone but in the end, he returned Not Satisfied as the final verdict and before you know it, you are already in DEEP SHIT!
Another issue that I am facing is the work schedule. It is so messy that I cannot even plan for a single event 3 weeks in advance. Dell OWNS my time now. :P
I think what I mentioned here is not against any policy or agreement. If it does... then I have nothing much to comment about other than the fact that this is few of my personal opinions / grouses.
Hi, thanks for telling me about your OT pay, it is better than 0 in my company. I know you don't have much reader reading your entries, I have one stupid idea in my head since yesterday. See if I can do anything about it ok?
By the way, if you 'readers' such as the cutie MayFang and 'purple flower' ask you who I am, will you point me out?
anonymous:
If you think that Dell OT is better than your company's, then why don't you come to Dell for a try? ;)
Stupid idea? Well, unless you start to tell me more about it, I do not think that I shall be able to guess what it is going to be.
By mentioning the term "purple flower", I believe that you have already unofficially revealed yourself out, don't you think so? :D
Asking me to come over to Dell so that you will have an admirer working together with you? That's not a good idea. I prefer you asking me to go over to your house.
About my idea, later ok?
I revealed myself by saying purpler flower, I saw the name is bluelavander, don't it has something to do with flower?
Please correct me if I somehow misunderstand what is lavander. You know I don't like flower too.
Unless the flower is from you, hehe
anonymous:
How long are you going to put me on hold before you reveal out your idea?
Dell has limitless access to Internet as well. Dell pays you to surf the Internet. In short, you should come to Dell because Dell > my house.
If that is the case, I do not see any reason for me not to reveal your identity out if any of them asked me. It is not wrong to be honest right? :D
Sorry, as I told you I will take action for my idea right? But, sorry I was too busy yesterday, and still busy today. Guess I will only do it today or tomorrow.
I will add you in my MSN ok?
Dell has limitless access .. but can I download porn there? The answer is NO right? So, the best place is still your house.. ^_^
I prefer to be anonymous rather than be famous amoung your readers in here. But if they are pretty girl, then I won't mind you telling them who am I ok?
I mean, if your gf or that cutie May... others ... GTH.. haha !!
anonymous:
I hope your "idea" will not involve me or my blog. Anything other than that, it will be OK and if it was something beneficial to me, PLEASE, be my guest.
Who says I shall allow you to download porn in my house? My broadband is porn-free. You see, it is not that I do not want you to come over to my house but it is just that what you intended to do is not something achievable. Therefore, you will still be wasting your time since your porn download will be 0% all the time. :D
I assume everyone as pretty as long as they look like human to me. So, do you want me to tell everyone who you are now? :P
ey, my idea is invloving you, and I guess that it will bring no harm to you at all. So gotta give me green light here.
Hmmm ... if I am not mistaken, you're the one who invites me to watch porn with you every weekend.
Now switching to porn-free? Don't have to be shy, your gf won't be reading comments right?
I know your concern for not allowing me to go over to your house, I understand. It is ok.
U assude everyone is pretty? But you told me before that I am ugly ... Someone had called me whore when I played with this stranger last weekend. So I guess I sissy, if not, why he called me WHORE right?
Nah, I am spiderman, and my identity is suppose to be secret, even Mary Jane also don't know about me.
anonymous:
1 sentence to reply all of your allegations.
"You need to get your Gunbound medicine."
Haha, first of all, sorry for all the spelling mistakes and also for the bad grammar, you know, I was typing it while playing games. Sorry.
I told you before, no more interactive games for me, and you #$%$#@!&*(*& do you know, you had actually revealed my identity indirectly with your so called genius "one sentence reply.
All I want to say it **** ***.
anonymous:
You are not the only one playing Gunbound so why are you in such a panic?
I believe that the way you responded to the Gunbound comment revealed yourself more than the other comments. :D
LOL .. Yeah you are right. Why I behaved like a half-cooked chicken in the first place?
Do ya know.. now everyone is moving from GunBound to SilkRoad. Even you right? In fact, I had uninstalled GunBound weeks ago and never crossed my mind to play any interactive games again, except ... You will know what I mean.
Now i am playing Kakuro, you should have try it out. It is fun, it is challenging and it is helping me to use up my rubber and pencil where I have stop using them for months.
About the thing that I promised you I will bring it back for you.. please forgive me as I forgot to check it out when I was free.
Haha.. I purposely did that.
And don't forget to come to claim your rubbish from me when you are free.
anonymous:
I do not really know about your friends but I have to admit that I have moved to SilkRoad as well. But do not get me wrong as I do love GunBound a lot. Heck... any game that requires skill will attract me no matter what.
The problem with GunBound is the aimbot. I shall only go back to GunBound if I managed to gather a group of friends that can always be together for a few fun sessions of GunBound. Hmm... maybe I can suggest this game to my DotA friends to break away from the same old game?
Kakuro? I have browsed through Wikipedia and I do not plan to discover it too much at the moment. Work has robbed me most of my time and I do not plan to let even a single minute drained from me any further.
Pertaining to the keyboard / rubbish, I shall collect if from you once you have the modem / router ready as well.
Regarding GunBound, if you can find some 'nice' friends, and if you can count me in, then I am in.
But please do make sure that you are PRO first before you challenge me, maybe I can find my friend to play with us too, if he still wanna be my friend.
Kakuro is some sort like Sudoku, its like a crossword puzzle where it is made of numbers instead of letters.
I find it very interesting, bought a book of it, if you want, i can borrow you when we meet up some time, but please remember to bring along your gf as well, I don't plan to see you alone.
About the rubbish, it is thick dust covering it now, don't worry, I will remind myself to ask my sister about the whereabout of my modem tonight, if I still remember about it.
anonymous:
If I am not mistaken, you are only pro at Aduka but noob at those high-angling bots such as Kalsiddon and Boomer. :P
My girlfriend will be going back to UPM this coming Sunday so I guess there is not much time for you to meet up with her anymore. :'( And as I have said, I do not plan to start Kakuro.
Gentle reminder: MODEM!
Hi, it is because we only play Aduka ok? I am good at boomer also, but before we fight, you gotta let me train to make some free shots first, then I will be pro. And, i forgot to tell you, when team up with my friend, I am pro in any bots, as he will tell me what angle to use .. haha
Yeah, I know your gf will be going back this Sunday... why don't you tell me earlier, then I can ask you to take her out earlier...
Kakuro is much more addicted, trust me, once you start kakuro, you will forget about your gf .. haha
It is useless for you to remind me here, as I cant bring it to you right now, you turned me down, so I gotta turn you down too right? Fair is what I am trying to achieve here ok?
Why so long already ... still no update in your blog?
anonymous:
If your friends have to inform you of the angle to use, then your friends ARE the pro, NOT you. :D
At the moment, my working schedule left me with very little own personal time therefore do not expect any update for the time being.
Moreover, you have successfully spammed this particular comments box so much that I could have created a new post with all these comments pasted in.
After all, I am the one who does the shooting right? Then I consider myself PRO also ... Give face la .
I know your working schedule is like hell, but do you think you are the only one with this working schedule? What about me then? Having to attend training from 9 till 5 on my day-off, and this training is compulsory to attend, where I am already expert of it, and I don't wanna attend it in the first place.
I know you are boring in here, where no one else reading your blog, so I am being a good and supportive friend, so I have the responsibility to write nonsense in here, making others feel like .. waa... this lousy blog also got ppl wanna come and read and post comments .. ^_^
So ... what bout our date then?
Still on, I know that venue already from our another friend, but what about the time? and you are going to treat me this time? Remember that .. among 3 of us, my salary is the lowest ok?
anonymous:
Err... I seriously do believe that I am the only one with this kind of work schedule. On my off day, I still have to work those graveyard shift, which is way worse than yours... in term of time, not money though.
As per our conversation earlier, you shall inform the other person about the latest update: Pizza Hut.
Sorry, I am busy with work until no time to come to here. Managed to steal a few minutes though..
Do you mean that you are the only one working like hell in Dell?
What about your colleagues?
Our date has been cancelled ...
anonymous:
I think you have misunderstood. I am just replying to your claim that "I know your working schedule is like hell, but do you think you are the only one with this working schedule? What about me then?"
In my team, certain colleagues (especially girls) have been excluded from the graveyard shift due to unknown reasons. I do not have the intention to ask them as well.
I still have a number of colleagues in the same kind of working schedule as me. However, MOST of them are big spenders therefore, the OT is their life saver. :P
I still do have a few collegues who hated the unpredictable working hours. At least I know that I am not alone. :)
What do you expect me to say here? Just THANK GOD that I am not in Dell, and I am not a Tech Support here. Haha, but apart from losing your freedom and working like a slave, you get a good slary in return. And think like this, you will earn more than me, and you can buy your dream car faster, and fetch your gf from UPM back to Penang with your new car, and can show off in front of me, while you are already have your own car, I am still using my old transport, right? So think positively and cheer up man!
anonymous:
It is just too bad that I do not have any intention as you have described. :P
Well ... My last suggestion here.. QUIT your current job
anonymous:
I shall do so soon. I can even promise you that it is going to be even sooner than expected. ;)
Thanks for listening by the way.
Nah, I don't like to listen to all your b*******t anyway.
But, its just that i am pity that no one visits your blog. So I just have to force myself to leave a comment everyday. Do you have work next Monday? Wanna dropping by my house that day?
anonymous:
I certainly do not ask for your pity and sympathy. This blog is after all for those who are interested only. :P
I HAVE to work on this coming Monday even though it is clearly a public holiday.
Thanks for asking even though I have clearly sent you my work schedule.
Hey, I got your working shcedule, but sorry, as you have known, I am very busy this week, so I didn't take a look at it yet.
Anyway, you are no one to me, why should I memorize your working schedule right?
If i remember your working schedule, then you have to be careful .. right?
So I am being normal, and you are being 'be pai se'
I just login to read ur comment.
And I am sure that you login everyday to read me comment and then reply me too?
Lol .... it has been a routine to you and me recently...
wei.. i wanna eat buffet next weekend, got any hotel to kai siau? Cheap one. No seafood ok.
anonymous:
I do not require you to memorize my work schedule. I am just merely replying to your suggestion that I drop by your house on Monday.
I do not know of any hotel as I have no time to tour around my own little island. :P
I also don't wanna memorize your working schedule. I will go through it later when I am free ok?
So this week can drop by my house?
I won't be going back this weekend.
But I hope that I will go back .. but it depends.
Regarding the hotel.. nevermind, I will look for it yourself.
Yesterday was my roommate's birthday. Just FYI ...
I am so sleepy today. Not enough holiday, headache somemore.
anonymous:
This week I am working from 3pm to 12am. Unless you can wait until 12.30am, then you will have to wait for the following week.
Ask me to wait until 12.30am .. no way man, sleep come first in my dictionary, besides eat and play..
So I guess... I have to wait another week for Your Majesty ... lalala ... wasting my time though ...
anonymous:
You are way too demanding. :P
I am not too demanding ok?
It is you who attracts me in the first place and you can't make it now, so you trying to blame me now !!!
SWEAT!!!
Next time, don't make a promise if you can make it ok???
anonymous:
YOU ARE THE ONE WHO WENT BACK TO YOUR HOMETOWN! :@
Pressure at work now. No mood to 'play' here. Sorry
anonymous:
Welcome to the stressful world A.K.A. work-till-you-drop lifestyle.
Nah pressure is over by today. My pressure was because I scared that others will blame and scold me when I causing the line down indirectly... But this case has been settled, they had postponed the committed date, so it is ok now.
But I am still very busy, need to finish many things by this week, or else need to come to work at Saturday.
anonymous:
Err... OK. The comments are getting way off track from the topic of the blog entry. :D
