Could this be it?

Bipolar disorder is a serious mental illness that is characterized by extreme changes in mood, from mania to depression. It can lead to risky behavior, damaged relationships and careers, and even suicidal tendencies if it's not treated.
The primary symptoms of bipolar disorder are dramatic and unpredictable mood swings.
Could this be it? Hmm something to thing about.

P/s: On my previous post I mentioned that I trust my instincts are always right. Well peeps, it's confirmed. My instinct was right all along.

Don't be a stranger!

A friend in need, is a friend indeed.
As a friend, all you wanted to do is help your friend because you care for him/her. So, I find it weird when someone I regarded as my close friend can just "lied" right to my face when he/she should have just tell the plain truth. After all, I am his/her friend.
Perhaps he/she has his/her own reasons. Perhaps he/she didn't trust me enough to tell the truth. Perhaps he/she is scared that I will tell others. If trust is the issue, then that's very sad. After all we've been through?
Perhaps, he/she never even regarded me as his/her friends. Sigh.
Or maybe, I was wrong. Maybe he/she did the tell the truth. Oh! well, let's give it a benefit of a doubt. But, I still can't help it that, after all these years, he/she should have known me better. I don't judge. I just want to help. Simple fact.
I wish I was not a stranger to him/her. Sigh.
I might be a stranger to him/her but I still hope nothing but best wishes for him/her.
Or maybe, I am just being too emotional because it's the first day of the month. Still, I trust my instincts are always right.

Welcome 2010

Year 2009 left us with a blink of an eye. Again, I feel that time passes so fast and yet there is so many things that I wish I have achieved in 2009. Then again, I believe I did achieved something worth remembering 2009; because I chose to see my glass is half full. Well we can't dwell about the past, because it's past tense and there's nothing we can do about it.

Now I can only put my hope in 2010...because it's the present and I know I can do something about it. You know what? I am thankful I have my family with me in good time or bad time. Alhamdullilah.

Well, peeps..Happy New Year!

Isn't that ironic?

Please bear in mind all characters are fictional and based on the blogger's active imaginations...

Sarah owns a wedding planning company - "Fairy Tales Wedding" and she needs to hire PR staff to help her in promoting her business. So a number of potential candidates came for interview and Sarah decided she wanted to take this particular candidate; let's call him Zack, because she believes he can perform based on his convicing interview. But, there's a catch here, Zack came with some medical history.

Anyway, as times goes by, words gets around that the operating manager; we named him Mike can't see eye to eye with Zack. Reason being, according to Mike, Zack was not able to perform according to what is expected of him. However according to Zack, their disagrements are getting personal. Mike claimed that he had several discussions with Zack and infact send him a love letter in hoping that something good will come out of it. So it's Mike's words against Zack's yada yada and the tension continues until...

Mike decided to bring this matter to Sarah, the CEO.

Going to CEO off course you'll expect a sound decision or at least a fair recommendation from Sarah. So, imagine to Mike's horror when he told Sarah his predicament, Sarah just told him off that there is nothing he can do, because Zack is mentally retarded!" OMG! How could she said that, Mike couldn't believe it, especially when it comes right from Sarah's mouth, the CEO!

In the end, I find the whole scenario so messed up because if Sarah knows from the beginning about his medical history then how dare she called Zack mentally retarded when she was the one who hired him in the first place, isn't that ironic, don't you think? And how can you simply call someone mentally retarded or spastic? That's a first degree insult!

Yes, perhaps he does has medical history but that doesn't entitled him to be called retarded, right? At the same time it's not fair also for Mike because all this while he has no idea that Zack has medical history. So now that Mike knows this, what his gonna do? Do he trys his best to be professional and burnt grudges against Zack which means he will find his way to make things work for both of them, or plan more personal attacks to Zack?

The Twilight Saga : New Moon

Jacob is so hot! (photo credit to runacity at flicker.com)

I've been busy I think since forever, ever since Raya Puasa I've been working non-stop till I forgot when was the last time I had weekends! Anyway, now that I'm on a mini break, baru boleh tarik nafas lega. So what happened was, I think one week ago I finally get the chance to watch Twilight at HBO. Now don't laugh, I know I am so ketinggalan! Nah, sekali tengok I'm hooked. No wonderlah I've been hearing the buzz about this Edward Cullen since last year. Now I know why! I never thought Vampires can be so cool!Haha

So last night we went to watch The Twilight: New Moon. Frankly speaking, I find that Twilight was much better than The New Moon, I don't know why I just feel something is missing here in this sequel, maybe it's because of different director? Or perhaps I should read the book? Another thing, I hope for the following sequel, Dakota Fanning's role will expanded...she's such a talented young girl!

Anyway, for those who hasn't watch this, it's still worth watching :-)

Diamonds are forever

See that big whole in the middle?

Yesterday, while I was stuck in my car near MUIS area, I saw something odd on my left fingers (at that time both hands were on steering) I just realized that the diamond on my wedding ring slipped. I don't know what happen, in the first place how could that happen? I thought diamond don't just slip right? Imagine my horror masa tu? Kelam kabut I called my sister and bff. I feel macam mau tercabut nyawa, ok? I can't concentrate my driving. Siap driving sambil mms this photo to my sister, bff and colleague@gurlfriend.

The first thing that popped up on my mind was, my hubby is going to kill me! Di tambah lagi dengan my sister said, maybe it's a bad sign? oh no! I terus freak out! Tambah serabutlah my head masa tu. Initially, I was so worried of what will my hubby's reaction when I tell him this piece of bad news. Dalam hati, habislah I'm deadmeat after all the money that he spent on this wedding ring? I even had the thought of going back to TOMEI and buy a new diamond with the same design and just replace it. My hubby wouldn't know, would he?

Despite cover-up plan that I have in mind, at that particular point of time, deep inside me, it feels like a big stab to my heart when I saw that big whole in the middle because this ring means a lot to me. It's my wedding ring and the sentimental value that comes with this ring is totally in describable. For a moment I felt lost. I never thought that when the diamond slipped, only then it makes me realized how much this ring means to me.

Come to think of it, sometimes we tend to take things for granted. Only when we lost it or it's gone, barulah kecarian, barulah appreciate, barulah tersedar. Sometimes it's just too late but if you are lucky you may get the chance to make amends or show that this thing/person means something to you. In my case, I was lucky because that diamond slipped inside my handbag. Thank God! Alhamdullilah. Next time , I might not be this lucky.

Later that evening, I did tell my hubby the truth. Lucky me again, he wasn't angry or mad at me but I am not suprised, knowing he is very calm and collected (well, he is totally opposite of me!maybe that's why we are together :-D). In fact he was cool about it. Tapi part yang paling I suka dengar was, when he said "Maybe this ring need another ring to kasih kawan dia" Hehehe...this part, me likey!

Moral of the story, don't take things for granted and for now don't buy any jewellery from TOMEI until I get a good explanation how could this happened. After all, when you spent thousands, off course you expect high quality workmanship.
