Wild, Crazy, Fun Nite

Saturday, June 4, 2011

Close my eyes, open my eyes, unbelievably I had already passed five weeks, and what's left is only another three weeks. People always said "Those painful days are hard to pass, but those happy days will pass quickly without notice". I believed it, and now, I feeling it. 
Before I went to Innovasi Samudra Sdn. Bhd, month ago, I kept on thinking about the working politics, gossips in the office and etc. but I was proved wrong after I spent my days in the company. The people here are actually nicer than I expected. Being the youngest and raw to the industry, my colleagues never stop to teach me about new things. Although we do gossips among each other, but it's all about ... (something I cannot post here, faham-faham ya).

We cared for each other, we are united. Not like what I had watched in the TV previously, everyone want to get the favor of the employer, but this never happen in Innovasi Samudra. I love to work with them, even there is only five of us, but I think it is enough for a company like Innovasi Samudra.

Our friendship is undeniably strong even though I just be with them for just a month. I feel like I am just the youngest brother in the family, and I got this two sisters and two brothers from different races.

If someone asked me what is my greatest day during my internship, I think/sure it would be 02.06.2011. It was a crazy, wild, fun night that I spent with my colleagues at Greenbox. The first week, salary week, with a bunch of money, we planned some activities to strengthen our friendship. Although, the Karaoke plan nearly failed, but at last it did ON. 

We sang from 7.30 p.m. till 11.00 p.m. Temporarily we put aside our workloads and focused on our singing. Lin and I were called as "Perampas Mikrofon" by Najar, since she figured that both of us like to grab the control and sing every song that been selected by others. (p/s: Najar, we had no choice, since the songs that you guys select are so ngam to both of us + we both know how to sing the song).

Lin was the "Entertainer of the Night" to me alone, since his "NYANYI X BERPERASAN" make me laugh like hell once he started to sing. On the other hand, I was "Entertainer of the Night" to the others, since I laughed like mad fella once Lin started to sing. Not to forget, we enjoyed the night too, cause it is GREENBOX, so we got BUFFET to attack and I found out, we shared one more similarity, big EATER.

I laughed till I sat on the floor

Lin left earlier (about 10.10 pm) due to his other commitments, and left four of us. Kwok Wah, Najar and I left at 11.00 pm and left Aini and her husband continued to sing (till 1.30 am). We (Kwok Wah, Najar and I) sang our final song "Gemilang" from Jac before we left. 

The night was full of happiness, laughter and all sort of smiling stuffs that is why I called it as Wild, Crazy, Fun nite.

p/s: I'm sorry I can't post much pictures due to the poor internet connection.





My Own Stories of Ais Kacang

"Memory is a way of holding onto the things you love, 
the things you are, the things you never want to lose"

"Ais Kacang" is one of the most famous desert in our country, Malaysia, especially during those hot and sunny days. But do you people know that this "Ais Kacang" created two memories in my life that I am going to share with you, my reader in this post.


AIS KACANG Story #1


When I was still a kid, Ais Kacang is always my favourite food. Whenever I was asked to write my own personal details in school, my favorite food column will always be Ais Kacang. Why ? It is the trick my grandparents and parents always used to make myself happy. During that period, our family lived in poverty, unlike now. Understand ? Human will always fight for two things, (1) love and (2) money and my parents and grandparents used to quarrel at that time since a lot of time, money was not enough to support us, even our family is not that big. Since I was kid, crying was the best option for me to express my sadness.

But thankfully,when I started to cry, everything will just stop. And a bowl of Ais Kacang can make everything to be just a past. Everyone will shared a bowl of Ais Kacang, even a single bowl it was more than  enough. But, when I started to grow up, the financial condition of my family is getting better and better. Everyone started to care just for their own life. The grandparents used to go for vacation, the parents used to busy with their career, the sister chose to further her study in another town and left me alone in the house.

Whenever we went for Ais Kacang again, the taste and feeling was not the same anymore. Now, everyone had their own bowl (it was affordable), just like our life, we were not sharing our life anymore, because we were too obsessed with money and kept ourselves busy.


AIS KACANG Story #2

Family is always #1 in my heart. And #2 will be friends. I used to have only a few friends back in my school time. I almost lost my confidence over friendship until I met this friend. He gave me my another story of Ais Kacang. He was the only one that I felt comfortable to talk to, so nevertheless, he knew everything about me and my family. He learned about the story of Ais Kacang in my family and I was totally shocked when there was one day, he bought me Ais Kacang. He told me, not only my family members can give me happiness, but as a friend, he is able to do it too. That was the first time when the Ais Kacang 'feel' came back to me. We used to eat Ais Kacang every Friday, and able to spend almost the entire afternoon at the stall, to discuss and exchange our weekly stories. I believed that was what friendship meant in someone life. But, now, this friend was no longer here with me, since his God love him more than I do. 

Why I write about this today ?  Haha !!! This is because: today as usual, the first week of the month, salary week, together my friend and I went to eat expensive food (yummy!!!) and I ordered Ais Kacang. When my friend found out that I didn't finish up my Ais Kacang, she scolded me and asked me to finish it. I explained to her, the reason and she cried. She asked me to share my story with people. I didn't wish to post it in Facebook but I choose to post it here and so whoever is fortunate, they will has this opportunity to read this post and be a part of my listener (padahal, reader).

I am sure, none of friends has ever notice that, I like to order Ais Kacang whenever it is in the menu list. But, I always unable to finish it. The Ais Kacang that I eat now, although it is still sweet and colourful but it doesn't mean anything to me anymore.

So do you have a food that bring so much memories for you ? Share it with us. ^.^
Thank you, J, if not because of you, this story will not appear here. Sweet ^.^
