1 month to go

By the time I wrote this I just got my fifth paycheck.Tomorrow also the 2 ahmoi are leaving..So after this no more ahmoi gedik...only serious ahmoi only..Hmmm what to do..Everything must come to an end..Honestly I enjoyed my time here with them keep company..Before they came,the office was quite boring with everyone concentrating on job with only little chat or jokes.But after they came, the office was never be the same again...There are a lot more talk and jokes than work..The supervisor must be pissed off by her...Although most of the jokes are lost in translation but I did get some by the help of the colleague who are willing to translate the joke to me..

Last month The boss raised my allowance by RM 1 per day..so I got about rm 20 plus increment per month.It's not bad I think since I am only a trainee and I'm just 4 month here.
Last week I did find some time to travel to KL to accompany Epoy to buy his PC.We travel by car on Wednesday after Isyak.We stopped by at Tapah to buy some food.As soon as we arrived KL we headed to Damansara Uptown and meet Azhar there.After some chat and a little bit of window shopping we zooomed to Azhar's new house in Subang.We spend the rest of the night at Azhar house.

Early the next morning,after having some delicious breakfast we headed to Shah Alam to pick up Pidos the technical advisor and then we headed to KLIA because I have to catch my flight at 12pm..No just kidding...we headed to KLia to pick up Ijam's lover..After that we go to the 365 days of PC FAir @ low Yat Plaza to complete the mission.Finally everything was set and the system is AMD64 3000,1gb ddr ram,ati radeon 9600 pro,spankin' 17" samsung lcd and a massive 120gb sata hard drive.The total expenditure was somewhere closed to RM 4000.I remember that I also spent the same amount of money for those freakin old Celeron 300mhz system back in 1999.

Later that night we went out and ate at SS 15 Subang Jaya and coincidentally it was Friday Night and Latte@8 is on tonight.So we decided to pay a visit..When we arrived, we was quite late and the first guest that is Saiful Apek just finished.The band that performed that night was quite cool though.Their song is so catchy till I couldn't here what the singer sang..
After that we headed to Merdeka Square since we have made appointmnet with Ar ,Is,Rehan and Loba but sadly when we arrived everyone has leaved besides Ar.I was told that LOba has some serious interview to attend the next day...

After having some tea at Bangsar we leave and back to Shah Alam.Early the next day I went to the Faculty to take the result slip and bills,but sadly the bill is gone.I couldn't trace who took it.So it's gonna cause me a problem if I couldn't find it before the registration day...

In other updates I also got a brand new 80gb Western digital Hard drive for RM205 at Low YAt plaza....

GOOD MORNING

Dear avid readers,It 6.52am in the morning and usually at this time I should buckle up and ready for work..but don't worry.. It is a public holiday here in Perak because it is the birthday of our Sultan.Although it is a holiday,I can't help myself from woke up early in the morning,it is becoming a habit..a good habit in a way..

Let's talk a lil' bit about work.April is the most hectic month of all month..This is because we have a lot of personal tax case to be done by 30th April.Furthermore the IRB is implementing a new system,the Sistem Taksiran Sendiri..When doing tax I have a encountered a lot of people with different financial background.

It actually makes me thinking that,if we want to be rich it is nearly impossible if we depends only on employment.It is either by doing business or involve in the investment in quoted shares.As for me,I am quite a risk-averse person,thus this 2 sector is very much not suitable for me..But somehow I have to change this attitude if I want to drive big car,live in big house and travel around the world.

I don't know if the above statement makes me look like a materialistic person,but I personally think that everyone has the same dream of being rich.However being rich is not everything in this world.

At the office two new ahmoi came in to do practical training and they were from UUM.So the office is now packed with people with every seat fully booked.The boss even have to buy a new table.As for me I have about one more month to go.I really appreciate my time here although the workload is damn a lot.Here I have a chance to meet the former practical trainee whose currently working at KPMG.I actually use the opportunity to ask her a lot of questions with regards to the career in the accounting professions,some interview tips and a lot more.

But somehow it is not relevant for me,as I have to serve the government for the next six years as part of the contract.I only be free to go private by 30 years old.It is quite old already to enjoy.

Yesterday,Black called me and we chatted a lot about work.From what i heard theyn are having a hard time there as they have do do overtime until the midllle of the night.Even worse another friend is doing overtime until 5 in the morning.I was lucky that the firm does not require us to do overtime.But the sure thing is, their resume will look great with experience of working in the Big 4 audit firm.

By end of this week I was thinking of travelling to Kl to accompany Epoy to build his super pc.Hopefully it is a super pc,with a budget of nearly Rm4000.He opted to go 17 inch Lcd,and Amd64 system.If there is no problem coming,we will go by car on Wednesday after work and I have to apply for a leave on Friday.

I'll stop here to get some breakfast.Until next time.Choy Kin.........
