Entry tertunggak

Seriously babe, banyak entry tertunggak ni. Banyak yang I wanna share with korang akan tetapi masih belum berkesempatan nak mengadap lappy ni. Al maklumlah, mommy-to-be ni sometimes memang tak larat sangat-sangat. Namun ku gagahi juga yang mana yang termampu lah.

Owh, since NOVEMBER is a wonderful month, apa kata nanti I compile kan aje the story yang menarik, tertarik dan da bomb tu nanti. Baru best. Lots of picture sekali. Ni asyik perkataan je ye dak?

That thing you do..

Hello fellas..

Before I start, korang remember tak dengan entry ini? Well, ini kesinambungan entry tersebut.

Pepatah ada cakap memaku dulang, paku serpih, mengata orang dia yang lebih. 

Lagi pepatah melayu lain juga ada kata bagaikan ketam mengajar anak berjalan.

I'm sure korang tau the meaning of those idioms.Tak perlu lah di terangkan panjang lebar lagi. Lihatkan dari pepatah tu pun korang dah boleh agak what's the story morning glory lah kan? Senyum..senyum ada makna tu.

Yes my dear reader(s), my SENIOR officer itu yang telah SOUND daku di dalam sebuah department yang sekangkang kera dengan suara bak HALILINTAR MEMBELAH BUMI itu (hey, serious babe dah lama haku tak guna ayat ni. Ayat feberet I ni dulu) telah terkantoi dengan me FB-ING during office hour. I was like dey makcik, lu memang cakap tak serupa bikin. Lain kali dont talk shit if you cant get hold of your words. Memang B to the U to the L to the L to the S to the H to the I to the T!!

Wanna know the full story? Pendek je, no worries..masih sempat baca sebelum bos lalu balik keluar toilet tu. 

I was back from performing my prayer. Nak enter department ku itu ( kena tanggal kasut and kena touch access card before entering), I was struggling nak tanggalkan my shoe, so macam took me a a while la (tapi tak lah lama sangat). I was bending or cane ek, terbongkok skit kat pintu department tu. Pintu department tu ada cermin so u can see people inside lah. Kebetulan I bend down sikit tu I saw straight to her PC. Jelas, terang dan nyata sedang FB-ING. That time I  already touch my card and the door unlocked. Dengan pantas dia logout but it's all too late coz I know what you did a few second ago makcik.

I tengok je muka dia while passing thru her workstation and gave her a smile. Cynical smile. Tak tau lah kalau she still didnt geddit. Itu memang buta perut, buta kayu lah tu kalau still tak paham.

ALLAH tu kalau nak tunjuk, a few second tu je dah memadai. Sudah cukup! So-called-busy kan? Oh yes, 'fair lah sangat' tu kan? Orang lain FB kena blocked, tapi your PC tidak. 

FAIR ENOUGH!

( Banyak nya tulisan merah. Cantik juga kan?)

The best day in NOVEMBER!!

Heyloo heyloo..

Not much to say, just wishing my self a very

Owh saya sangat happy!

Though I had plan nothing for today, it's a special day itself.

Alhamdulillah, I'm still alive up till today, expecting a baby some more, is bless with a husband (i love you so much sayang), living a wonderful life of our own..I'm just thankful for everything. 

Happy day!!

Early Childhood Education Seminar

Yess all mommies out there. I'm sharing with you something from the seminar I went last Saturday (30th October 2010). Yeap! I've been waiting for the seminar for so long. Excited ok! 

It all started when my SIL had a baby. Serious weiy! Celik je mata budak tu dah kena belajar. I mean the baby being feed with educational video (tak kisah lah kau nak, mak tayang je, kau tengok ye). I pity the baby at that time. Budak tu baru je nak kenal dunia, engkau dah suruh dia belajar? Kesiaaaaaannnnn (macam dalam cite P.Ramlee tu). This is where you are WRONG!

Ok lepas tengok kan budak tu as if teruk kena dera kena belajar (of course lah I didnt tell my SIL, anak dia tau lah apa yang dia buat yang haku sibuk nak interfere dah kenapa?), I had this thought..kalau lah budak tu kecik lagi dah suruh belajar, owh sangat challenging dunia sekarang ni, I wouldnt want my baby to be missed out from semua tu. Harus lah aku pun start awal macam my SIL. Sian kau nak, tapi it's for your own good. Dengan harapan dan doa moga-moga my baby tak jadi macam kes budak pintar sofea tu yang masuk Harvard and end up as a pros. Nauzubillah! That kid ada bad past tapi still, perumpamaan nya, tak mau lah jadi cenggitu.

Back to the point, and so I did some google-ing on Early Childhood Education (ECE) nih. Turns out kat oversea tu dah banyak dah kesedaran on it. Even dah banyak research, dah banyak books (eh how, banyak, books lagi, kan S tu dah menandakan plural..ah abaikan)dah banyak medium pembelajaran untuk si kecil tu starting dari dia baru lahir lagi. Kita kat Malaysia ni je kurang dapat pendedahan. NO sebenarnya kita ORANG-ORANG MELAYU ni je yang masih berada di takuk yang lama. Sape yang ada kesedaran tu sila kecualikan diri anda ya. That leads me to more google-ing, at this point I was already panic! Mana tak nya..

"Pendidikan Seharusnya bermula sembilan bulan sebelum kelahiran" - Maria montessori, Pengasas Kaedah Pembelajaran Montessori.

Ok, lagi menguatkan perasaan panic ku, I'm 7 month late dalam educating my baby. I trust this quote sebab dulu masa tadika I was in the kindergarden yang menggunakan this method. Hey, it works ok. Though takde lah bright sangat dulu but I believe it works

That leads me to the seminar. I was hunger for information. I need answers. I want to know how. Thanks to Kak Watie - Pengasas Genius Baby On Board yang tak kedekut ilmu langsung! She even bagi consultation on good education material untuk baby dan yang paling penting mengikut money wise. Al maklumlah taraf kehidupan miskin bandar ni memaksa kami berkira on every Ringgit and Cents spend. The seminar? It worth every cent my dear! Terbuka lah sikit mata ni, dapat lah sikit gambaran. 

Apa yang penting yang I pick from the seminar, never underestimate your baby. NEVER! Baby tu kalau dia lahir je dah boleh bercakap, they'll say, mommy, please lah feed me dengan knowledge. Yes mommy dearie semua, otak baby mengandungi sel-sel yang terbentuk dari setiap apa yang baru mereka pelajari, and from time to time, they will need to link the brain cell because the cell will die if tidak di gunakan. Bayangkan betapa ruginya kalau tak digunakan. Dah tentu lah kalau ikut logik, the more the better kan?

And before I forgot, the longer time you take to start educating your baby, the harder it will get. Bak kata pepatah melayu, Kalau melentur buluh, biar dari rebungnya. Your baby is now the rebung ok. Sila start sekarang!!

More on the seminar will share with you next entry. As for now, baby ku dah lapar. Nak pergi makan dulu ya.

Enjoy some of the pictures.

 

Tempat seminar yang sangat cosy. I loike!

Feels like home when you come to the place.

 

And of course lah the brilliant mommies and dad yang attend the seminar.Kak Watie is the 1 in purple blouse.

and owh, kalau interested in knowing more, just give Kak Watie a call. Cakap je dapat her number from me.

Remembering November

Not in a good way I must say. Dalam pada I tengah happy welcoming November ni, ada perkara yang terjadi. Kinda frustrated with what has happened, but tak pelah. I take it as a challenge! Lepas ni jangan harap I akan balik lambat lagi! NO WAY!! 

Things happen macam ni..

I was in for work sharp pukul 8.30am. Then I had my breakfast (breakfast time is during anytime before office hour start till 8.45). Betul lepas 8.45am I went back to my workstation. Macam biasa, start the morning with checking my inbox, bukak google reader looking for any updated blog and open it in a new tab. Bila free sikit i can take my time to read up the blog(s).

I'm using gmail, ada gtalk (usually I gtalk with Mr.H, you know lah, lebih jimat lebih cepat). Nama pun dah husband, apa lah sangat nak di gtalk kan. Setakat cakap I'm coming home a bit late, I'm having lunch with sekian sekian, I'm off to lunch now, leceh lah system kat my office ni, eh dear u try baca this blog..kelakar! Ok fine, it's consider chit chatting, but it doesnt affect my assignment. I did finish my task on time. I buat everything siap. 

And so I'm doing my rutine at that time. Then came my senior...

"Ema, akak nak cakap sikit lah. Time kerja jangan lah nak ber'facebook-facebook'(mind you my office dah block smua social networking sites and I tak tau mana dia dapat the idea I'm FB-ing. Kalau on mobile pun I'm not doing it during work - ok tipu,ada lah during work but once a while. Bila agak-agak otak tepu), asyik main internet jer."

"Eh, manade saya main facebook, kat sini mana boleh bukak facebook"

"Abis tu yang kat tab bawah tu apa?"

"Itu email saya." sambil opening the tab showing her the email.

"Tak kisah lah apa pun, time kerja, kerja lah sebab TAK FAIR lah untuk kitorang. Kitorang kat sini banyak kerja."

"Eh, tapi kerja saya semua siap kan?"

"Tak kisah lah tu, daripada belakang orang tengok tak ni lah. Orang lain semua buat kerja (ye lah sangat tu, padahal ada je PC kat situ yang tak kena block FB and they were FB-ing terang terangan)"

"Hmm..Yelah"

My ears rasa panas sangat. My cheeks are blushing. She sounded me in front of the whole department with her loud and clear voice. Definitely semua orang dengar. That department is not that big. 

I admit that I'm wrong for misusing the company's internet facilities for my own personal use. But that doesn't mean I'm neglacting my work there. I do chat on gtalk once a while tapi bukannyer jejaskan my job. I admit I do google things for my personal interest still, I did finish up my work on time. 

What ever I do, I'm still putting my job on top of everything when I'm at work. I'm frustrated because of what she said 'It's NOT FAIR to others'. Tell me what is fair? They can go to cafeteria anytime they want to have breakfast, they spend nearly hours during tea break (which I dont take at all, maybe sometimes je) and chit chatting there. And working late to finish their work. Fair enuff lah sebab dorang dah take working hours dorang untuk break. So, pandai lah cover balik. I'm just peeking my gtalk once a while (alaa, macam korang  tengok message kat handphone lah). Cakap pasal handphone, bos I sound cakap jangan asyik tengok handphone je. Tak paham betul. It's called multitasking ya. Apa yang penting kerja siap on time. I may be a bit slow at first sebab I'm new to the system. I'm trying to learn as fast as I can but accusing me always internet-ing during work sangat lah dumb. It's all about online nowadays. To me ape yang penting, kerja siap. Kenapa perlu bezakan kerja sama banyak ke tak. Dah terang-terang dia SENIOR OFFICER kat situ, tangga gaji pun SENIOR juga, jadi worklad pun harus lah SENIOR! Why must there be issues on fair or not kerja SENIOR banyak dari executive entry level nih?

Haaaaaiiii..entah lah. Macam ni lah kalau kerja dengan company yang semua nya Melayu. I dont know why, but Melayu dan sifat dengki nya tak pernah luput. I've see this thing coming sebenarnya. Though I felt humiliated jugak (macam kena lempang laju-laju depan orang ramai), I feel funny. Funny how the world evolves, the technology evolves but not their mindset, not their views. Tak sepadan dengan arus perkembangan semasa. Terlalu lama agaknya berada di comfort zone. 

I'm blaming myself for being too advance in this matter. Ye lah, I'm forecasting my future, but they are forecasting next few hours. 

I guess that is why makin ramai yang give up working under an organization. The beaurocracy, the politics, the suck-up asses is too tiring. All you want to do is work, earn and live a happy live. These people, wont let you do so. Jadi to survive, my husband always said...

Quit or suck it up unless you have other choice.

Suck it up je lah. I got no choice.
