7 June (Fri) - went for the last bowling training at Penang Bowl before the competition during lunch time. Best score of the day 117...not good but not too bad ;P.
In the evening, dinner cum meeting with sister guides at Louis Cafe at Argyll Road to discuss about our coming QGG camp...great time with friends but the food was not up to expectation based on recommendation from other food hunter.
8 June(Sat) - Went shopping with sis and mum. 1st thing that we got was my new Sony Ericson W595. This was my first ever self paying new mobile phone. I was reluctant to pay so much for a phone cause I am not those upfashion people. Was hoping that for my big bro will change his soon and I could just take over his piece but too bad that my KRZR K1 was not inline with my plan. So another RM730 gone this year for my gears...one lens just flew away :S
We also shopped for my bro's new house 红彩 I also got my baking materials...butter, flour, almond chuck, corn flakes, baking powder, sodium bicarbonate, brown sugar, fine sugar, raisin and cherries.
9 June(Sun) - Accompanied my mum to do some grocerries. By noon, I started my baking. First I made the cornflakes raisin cookies dough then kneed them into bite size pieces followed by the making the almond cookies. It took me close to 4 hours to complete the 4 portions of those biscuits.
10 June(Mon) - Stuck in the traffic jam in the early morning...damn...followed by Monday blues throughout the day.
11 June(Tues) - This was a super tiring day. My day started as early as 7.30am and only got to leave office at 8pm. I was early in office for my weekly team meet with my team mates in US at 7.30am. Then from noon onwards, I was in the Auditorium for the DTTC Conference, I was in as participant cum AV volunteer. So it was good to be able to grasp so much from the conference though I was lost at times. I have learn and acquire a lot of new information and technology. Those presenters are really geeks....salute them for their passion and commitment in developing super advance tech. This conference lasted for 7 hours. By the time I arrived home, it was after 8.30pm.
12 June(Wed) - This was my worse day of the week. It was my mum's birthday. I have arrange for dinner with my family members and at the same time I was also involved in our PCD cup, bowling competition which I have totally forgoten when it was scheduled for. Anyway I managed to sort them out on last minute.
So at 4pm, I left office for Penang Bowl. I winded my car window down as it was extremely hot after hours under the sun...this was when my nightmare begin...That stupid power window could not work. It would not be a big deal if I was unable to get it open but it was really shit when I could not wind it up after getting it all down...I was hoping that things would get better after a while but it didn't.
So I have no choice but to head to a mechanic...didn't expect him to repair it completely but expecting a simple workaround like some bypass just temporary get the window winded up first so that I would not be too late for my game. At first the mechanic said it was the switch that malfunction and advise me to have that change. I agreed since he insisted that the switch was really broken and it was a few minutes work...so RM130 just for the stupid switch. Aparently that simple switch took me close to half hour.
When he was done with the switch, the damn window still wasn't moving. Then he continued with his diagnosis procedure and concluded that the motor was broken too due to the malfunction switch. He disamble the unit and showed me the parts saying that the motor's carbon was already exhausted. He can only simply clean it and made it work...so he disambled the part and asembled it back. Too bad that after all the processes, it still could not work. Again I have been place in a position that I could only agreed to his advice. So another RM60 to get the motor change....
After all the dissamble and assemble, I think he must have felt bad for the wrong diagnostic and he suggested that I changed at least the motor. So again I did as he say...saving me that RM130 but wasted my whole one and a half hour there.
I finally arrived at Penang Bowl at close to 6.30am. I felt so bad for not being there for my group. I felt that I was a stranger to my own group. So I decided to keep myself low and be there just a supporter cum cameraman...walk a round for few shots and cheered for PEDAS...till my sister's arrival at 7.30pm.
We drove all the way to Batu Feringghi's Mario's to celebrate my mum's 51st birthday. It was a costly dinner but we enjoyed our night out.
13 June(Thurs) - I could not recall what I had on that day...14 June(Fri) - my lunch meeting was canceled for my manager was not in. So during lunch I ask Pau and KH out. It has been 2 years since I last met KH....got a great lunch at Apex Cafe.
In the evening, Vern Han and I called for sister guides gathering at her bor's house in tanjung Bungah...got a great time catching up with everyone else...eat and chat till after midnight...oh yes...must mention here that everyone love my cookies :D
15 June(Sat) - went to RedBox at Gurney for karaoke session with YY, KM and MY. In the evening, I attended the Arabian Night organized by the Danz Club. Was there to support Slyvia and Anne...really great to see them enjoy themselves on the dance floor....I just could not imagine myself on the floor...perhaps it would be a 'KAYU' strolling around the floor...haha.
16 June(Sun) - After a tiring week, I decided to stay back at my room in Jelutong. It was a cleaning day as well as a movie marathon day...finally finished with my Desperate House Wife season 5....phew...
