枫言枫语嘿嘿，是我啦, Hiewfung 21 November Another stage in lifeAfter a month or so wondering around, I finally landed on a job. Business Process Analyst, so i was told when I got the offer. Went interview and has gone through 2 tests 2 weeks before they hired me. Thus, this is how my first job in the factory has began. It's so cold in here, but the people are warm. And it's so clean in here, everything is so organised. And what will become of me? I am not sure, but at least I can learn new things in here. The job is ok, maybe it's because I am new so not much work load for me yet. So, have been doing simple translation and some data entrying job for 2 weeks. The third weeks is started to be busy, there is a translation work need to be done in a week, and those technical terms of the products and guides are indeed very challenging. Have gone through the company's website many time for the right words. I hope I can manage to meet the deadline. This morning when I open my email, I saw the feedback from Japan, the guy said my translation is fine, he just need to do a little touch up. What a relief to see that. There is still long way to go though, need to keep updating my languages skill. That's probably the only thing I am better with. Couldn't do anything else, be a sales person? Can't persuade people, working in advertising? Not creative enough, be a secretary or personal assistant? I couldn't even organise my life, let alone organise other's. So, I think I better stay here for a while untill I get the chance to try new things. So be it.
01 October 夏の終わりで、もう秋だね時間は矢のように速い、今日もう十月の一日だ。仕事を辞めたからもう三日間だよね。コピーライターはよかったんだけど、辞めることになっちゃった。もう社長のことが堪らなくなっちゃたから。社長はよくないわけではないけど、まああ、色々。。。やっぱりもう一緒に仕事できないよなああと思ってる。先週の木曜、面接に行ってきた、結果はまだわからないけど、今のんびりしてる。こんな気持ちはすっごくリーラクスで、余裕だね。もう9ヶ月ずっと忙しかった。心も体も。金曜までまだ色々考えてるけど、今もう落ち着いた。  私の将来はまだ長い、何か起こったら、わからないでしょう。だから、ハッピーで生きなきゃ。うん！そうと思う a Pint, a Quart, a 1/2 Gallon, a Full Tub and a Full Tub to be Discard.31号过后的某天，和Shariff谈天时他突发奇想的谈出了一套冰淇琳哲学。他说：“ 如果把店里的雪糕术语用在我们店员身价上来说的话，十几岁的少年们就好象是品脱(pint)，又抢手又受欢迎比如说你妹。像我这般样子还过得去的，是夸脱(Quart)，虽不比品脱抢手但依然受欢迎。你和Sue比我大一点的是半加仑(1/2 Gallon)，有人光顾但不比品脱和夸脱好卖。出嫁了的Intan是全桶雪糕(Full Tub)超难得才会有人光顾，而我们最讨厌的区域经理则是报废了的全桶雪糕(Discarded Full Tub)送给人还没人要（窃笑〕。
哈哈！酱都给他想到！回家后告诉Sue时，她反驳说哪里是我们不好卖啊？只是不是每个人都买得起半加仑啊，因为我们身价比品脱和夸脱高啊！哇哈哈，Sue也还真有一套自己的想法啊。不过她倒非常赞成区域经理是报废了的全桶雪糕的说法  14 April Its Spring now, not in Malaysia though.....I chatted with Chan Wei and Fong Lin this morning through messenger. Fong Lin just came back from Nagoya and she said it is spring season in Japan, and she get to see sakura for her first time, she didnt manage to go to hanami ( a picnic under the cherry blossoms, a popular activities in spring all over Japan) cos its rainning when she was there. She went there for 2 days as she is the flight attendant of Malaysia Airlines. She visited some places in Nagoya with Yohsuke and get me a Canon camera.  haha! Thanks Fong Lin, I will treat you meal when you come to Penang . Chan Wei said it is also spring now in the State. How nice! Spring, one of my favorite seasons. Watashi, itsuka, mata haru wo taiken dekimasuka? I hope it won't be long to do hanami again....sou to omou.27 March 打工趣闻1 今天想和大家分享在我打工时所发生的趣闻。趣闻中的主角大多是店里的顾客，也会顺手写写员工们的事啦。
 首先，让我来介绍一下我们的店面。 我们店是一家雪糕专卖店啦， 店里卖的除了各式各样的雪糕及圣代之外还有的就是冷饮料如咖啡系列的冰沙 (Ice Blended)， 奶昔(shake) 和最新的水果系列冰沙，这些饮料哦都是使用雪糕来制成的哦，很好喝可价钱也不便宜。再来就是雪糕制成的蛋糕，计有全雪糕和半雪糕（上面是雪糕，下面是普通蛋糕）两种。顾客们可随自己喜好选择蛋糕的口味啦、大小跟设计。最后，想告诉大家的是店里的促销有分定期促销跟不定期促销两种，因为店的概念是31，所以店里的一切都是以31为主，比如装潢啦，每天31种口味的雪糕啦还有就是每逢31日我们店里大盒装的雪糕都会有打折（31％）这是定期促销哦，不定期的促销是会随着季节及节日而改变的，比如说华人新年圣代的名字都会取好意头的，今年的叫发财圣代， 价钱也是华人喜欢的18.88啦，16.88之类的，颜色，舍红取谁？马来人的节日（开斋节）时就会推出有马来特色的圣代，价格也会比较便宜，然后是情人节啦，印度人的屠妖节啦，圣诞节啦依此类推。先声明我不是想在这儿帮我店免费打广告哦，因为你必须先了解店里的情形才不会被我接下来想说的搞得一头雾水啦。然后再下来呢是我们的服务标准，当客人进来时，我们规定要向他们问好（基本上是用英文，菜单也是全用英文写的），然后介绍菜单（菜单是挂在柜台后的大型海报，写明圣代和饮料种类及价目表），然后再介绍现有的促销让他们买更多，当客人决定之后我们就会准备他们所点的然后拿到柜台请他们付钱（店里是self service的）。最后要介绍的是店里的员工：Intan（我们的新店长，前店长是Din，前店长现在另一家分店，有时也会过来我们店凑热闹啦） Sue （副店长，我的屋友） Shariff（很会唱歌和搞笑的男生）， Bryan（很有人缘，几乎没有人不认识他，跟他一起工作时，几乎每个进来的店里的顾客都会“嗨！Bryan" 的跟他打招呼，一点都不夸张哦），Jacklyn（我的系友，很可爱的一个女生） ， Liyana（Shariff的好朋友兼最佳搞笑拍挡，有他们在的时候你就甭想绷着脸了，打BOTOX都会前功尽费） 最后当然还有我啦。 我们店算起来还蛮高级的哦（所有雪糕和材料都是进口的），平常来这里消费的都是有能力的一群，偶尔也会有些“久久吃一次这么贵的雪糕不要紧啦”的想法的人来，当然也会有因好奇而进来店里的人啦（通常他们都会以为这里是普通的餐馆而进来 (_o_)我晕.....）。在这家店里打工的我们啊常常都会接触到各式各样的人。说我们在这儿尝尽人间冷暖，看尽人生百态也不为过哦。
事情是这样的，我忘了是哪一天，有个样貌普通打扮时髦的中年女人带着小孩进来我们店。哇唠，一进来就一副“我是有钱人，你可要好好服饲我”的嘴脸， 还自以为英文说得很棒。没办法，因为是顾客啊，再怎么不喜欢我们也得招待她，我们可是很专业的哦。好啦，介绍过我们店的菜单后她就开始点了，这个安娣啊，指着我们挂在柜台后的香蕉船菜单很大声的对我说"Give me one banana SPIT" 我以为我听错就请她再说一次，她就说："I say give me one banana SPIT lah!" 啊咧，我没听错哦，是banana SPIT,不是banana SPLIT哦。回过神之后虽然很想大声笑可是还是忍住了。当我“服饲”完这个安娣回头看Shariff时，他还打趣的问我，“你怎么不问她要什么SPIT啊？不然我的SPIT她要不要？不够的话还有你的。” 说完我们就一起笑得弯了腰。
又是某天，炎炎下午当然是吃雪糕喝冷饮的好时机咯，这时店里来了一群年轻人，一大班人嘻嘻哈哈的，好不热闹。当他们决定好了之后我们也开始忙啦，准备圣代、准备舀雪糕、准备白开水。当他们坐下时其中有个女生忽然转身对她的朋友说：“Ei,你看，这里还有卖名叫'蛇'的饮料哦。” 她朋友听她这么说都看向菜单，然后问“哪里，哪里？” 那女生指着饮料的菜单说：“喏，那个不是snake咩？还有得选哦，Chocolate Chip snake, Mint Chocolate Chip snake 和Strawberry snake的。” 我们一看，原来菜单上标的是“shake” （菜单字母都是英文小写,从远看shake还蛮像 snake的）她朋友马上噗哧一声的笑出来， 而她也不好意思的笑了。我们都过了一个可爱的下午。
还是不记得哪一天，这是Shariff 提供，发生在他值班时的趣闻哦，那天下午有个顾客进来店里，就看有什么雪糕啊，然后就对Shariff说："Bagi saya bau itu ais krim!"（译：让我闻闻看那雪糕），雪糕不是用试的吗，他要闻哦。Sue听了Shariff这么说以后也说她也有个想试雪糕的顾客更绝，把 "saya nak cuba rasa itu ais krim"说成 " Bagi saya tengok itu ais krim!"（译：让我看看那雪糕！） 而且还说得很大声哦。刚开始Sue以为他只想看看啊，就说"tengoklah"（译：看吧！）当那顾客很不不耐烦地再说" saya kata saya nak tengok itu ais krim lah!"（译：我说我想看看那雪糕啦！）时，Sue才发觉原来他是想试吃啦！讲完后还瞪着Sue，觉得Sue怠慢了他。哇哈哈，可怜的Sue，当时还不懂要怎样回应他咧。
待续。。。。
07 March Karaoke I tak sangka betul kengkawan I akan celebratekan birthday I sekali lagi
 , ingatkan hari tu dah celebrate kat pantai dah lah. nie semalam boleh pi Karaoke lagi. Mula-mula Intan ajak nak pi Relau ngan Din, I pun ingatlah kita tiga orang je, tetiba bila tutup kedai, nampak Sue, Jack, Bryan ada kat luar. Siap beli kek lagi tu. Rupa-rupanya diorang berpakat nak celebrate kat Karaoke dekat Relau. (kengkawan sekalian,trima kasih I sungguh terharu) (T_T) Pastu, kitorang ambik Shariff kat rumahnya. Tetiba, Bryan called, katanya tak leh nak join dah sebab ada meeting emergency pasal projek school dia,Jack pun turunkan dia kat Kayu, kesiannya, tak leh nak join, I pernah pi Karaoke ngan Bryan sekali, suara dia best, too bad dia tak leh join kali nie . Sampai kat Relau, dua-dua Karaoke kat situ dah penuh, kena tunggu 45 minit, jadi kitorang pun pi lah Karaoke kat BJ, lepas bayar dan pilih lagu semua-semua, kitorang pun masuk. Nie first time I ngan Jack masuk Karaoke "cheapskate" maknanya Karaoke yang murah lah, diorang kira ikut lagu, satu lagu seringgit. Lepas pilih lagu kitorang pun masuk lah. Bilik Karaoke tu simple je, ada satu monitor TV, dan satu mic, bunyi surroundnya tak best sangat, terlalu bising. Kekadang boleh dengar suara orang sebelah menyanyi. Haha. Orang yang pertama menyanyi ofcos lah Shariffuddin the Drag Queen. Masuk-masuk je dah start melalak. Tapi suara dia memang bestlah, memang berpotensi jadi artis. Biasanya dia melalak kat kedai je, sebab tak berpeluang nak pi Karaoke bersama walaupun dah banyak kali plan, nie first time pi ngan dia. I harap sungguh dia dapat masuk audition Akedemik Fantasia 4 kali nie. Shariff, berusaha ya, kitorang pi sokong nanti.
Sementara Shariff tengah syok menunjuk bakatnya, Din pun keluar nak bayar untuk lagu seterusnya, agak lama jugak dia pi, ramai orang kot. Tetiba kitorang dengar ada bunyi orang ketuk pintu dengan kuat, I pun bukalah pintu tu, pun masuk lah beberapa budak lelaki, dengan muka seposennya mereka kata dah sampai giliran mereka menyanyi, lagu seterusnya lagu mereka. Macamlah lagu tu mahal sangat. Apalah, sikap sesetengah orang Malaysia nie memang ah, kasar betul. Tak reti nak bersopan sikit. Buat malu kat orang je. Tak puas hati betul I!
 Pastu, kitorang pun keluar lah dari bilik tu, rupa-rupanya kita bayar lambat, jadi orang lain dah bayar nak menyanyi kat bilik kitorang. Terpaksalah kitorang tukar bilik. Nasib baik lepas tu tak de perkara sama berlaku. Thanks God! Lepas tukar bilik, kitorang pun teruskan melalak lah ape lagi,hehe. Tak banyak pilihan lagu kat situ, lagu Melayu ok lagi, lagu orang putih semuanya dah lama, ada lagu orang putih yang I ngan Din pilih tak leh nak nyanyi sebab tak sama key,I mean bukan versi yang kita biasa nyanyilah, hampeh betul. Lepas tu, kitorang pun potong kek dan makan. Pukul 2am baru kitorang balik. Trima kasih kengkawan semua.
 I am lucky to have u guys as my friends. Thanks again ya! Lain kali kita pasti keluar ronggeng lagi. Till then.03 March I am going to graduate school! I found out I was being accepted to the graduate school when I access to USM's webpage. My friend sent me the URL so I went to check it. At first I thought I didn't get it because after I key in my ID it said "no record found" I tried several times but it was the same "no record found" message
 Few minutes later my friend log in to the messenger and I told her I didn't get in. While talking to her I tried one last time and the system showed the course I got and my status as "Accepted". Then I realised that I key in my ID wrongly. I type in dash mark in between the digit when the system doesn't require us to do so. My friend got in too and she is going to pursue her master in International Study on European countries and is leaving to Germany in April for 2 months intensive German course. I wanted to study that too but too bad they don't offer it for part-time. So, finally I decided to study the Master of Public Administration and I am going to study it by doing coursework. I would have to attend classes, take part in research projects,seminars and other academic activities. We are not sure about the exact date when the course is going to start but they say it's in July. If it is that, I have about four months to prepare whatever I need to prepare. I know it is going to be tough for me as I will have to work as usual and attending the classes at the same time especially to attend classes after a tiring day from work. The reason I am taking it part-time is I need the job for the financial support. Anyway I hope I would be able to do it and see this as a new chanllenge to me.上天保佑. |
