as it is

ladies and gentlemen, some trivia facts before we start the show.

did you know, that today (2nd October 2007) marks 1 year of me as an employee of PETRONAS?
now, you know.

gosh, (this might sound cheeky) time flies really fast. sedar or not, it's one year already. and i consider myself very lucky on the facts that:

1. i am eligible for this year's bonus (the fact that i reported for duty not at 8am, but at 2pm!)
2. am in a department with good teamwork and "family" oriented
3. am reporting to a nice lady boss, and cool GM
4. i have internet access at office! hehehe
   

puasa (noun). menahan diri dari makan dari minum, dan perkara yang membatalkan dari terbit fajar hingga terbenamnya matahari

quick recap on what happened throughout August till Early October!

Malaysia International Fireworks Competition

remember the entry about the fireworks thingy? finally managed to get the pics from Naz :)

L-R: N,A,M,J

Merdeka Eve

went to Putrajaya with a gf. thot that the fireworks started at 10, so we kinda a bit rushed to get there. fortunately, the fireworks started exactly when the clock struck 12. the unfortunate part was when we had to wait for freaking 2 hours. luckily she don't mind waiting for me in the car, while i tried to get some sleep since the next day promises to be a day full of activities.

reached her place around 2am. then went for a quick supper, before went straight back home. miraculously managed to pack my stuffs in the wee hours, for the...

X3 Camp

this camp is like a motivation camp, except the participants are not your typical students-taking-exams-so-they-need-some-motivation. this camp targeted audiences are the children who spent most of their time learning and perfecting the trade of street kids. yes, they are what we call "Street Kids".

for us, they are diamond in the roughs. in fact, after 3 days full of challenging activities (physically, mentally and spiritually), we managed to get the best out of them.
*i am good*
*i am happy*
*i am excellent*

highlights of the camp? well, apart from a female facilitator (hehehe), and not forgetting Vanessa (triple hehehehe), here's a snippet of activities we did in 3 days and 2 nights:-

1. free-fall abseiling
2. rock climbing
3. caving with bats
   
4. multi-chamber caving
5. some activities in the cold river *shivers*
6. some modules in the nights
7. performances by participants and trainers
8. and of course, WHITE WATER RAFTING

the best part about this rafting is, my boat, code-named "Le Vanessa", faced several obstacles, and the crews and the captain never gave up.

1. the boat capsized. whole raft crew were thrown overboard. no casualties reported.
   
2. we went through one of the most challenging white water (a.k.a jeram), "the triple threat" in a reverse position. (instead of facing the raging streams, Vanessa the anchor steered the raft in backward position)
3. the boat capsized again. this time on purpose. :)

lesson learned: Bring It On!
