New year again

Seems like I'm only writing whenever it's time for a new year resolution... Perhaps I shall name this blog "The resolution of the year" blog.. Newly, allow me to add in some updates in 2012...

Went to Taiwan for Pre wedding photoshoot in late March-April.
Retook my ATCL in June, coz I flunked last year, this time I passed with high distinction :)
Had music history lesson with Ann Perreau for 9 months
Held Chinese Wedding on 23, 28 and 29 Sept
Pregnant, LMP on 5 May

I guess 2012 has indeed been a productive year... 2013 might not be as interesting as 2012 but i foresee 2013 as the start of the new phase of my life, nope, should be our life together as parents! No more being selfish individuals or lovers living in their own world. 2013 is the turning point of our lives where we start taking responsibilities of other people, where we nurture the fruit of our love, Jaevyn...

Can't wait for your arrival baby... Daddy n Mummy has so much to tell u...

Oops... Forgot to spell out my new year resolutions,
1. Be a good mummy & wife
2. Obtain AMusTCL

Easy? Hope it'll be done...

Happy new year everyone!

It's time for a New Year Resolution \@@/

Time flies... it has been 1 year since i am a lawfully wedded wife... hehe... Looking back at what i've accomplished last year....

1. Passed Grade 8 theory with distinction

2. Took ATCL piano performance

3. Resigned and be a full time music teacher

You might not think of it as an accomplishment but for me, they are. I finally get to work at my own time - I get to decide what time to go to work, what time to finish work. I get to decide my salary... It feels real good to be on my own but it's more stressful than to work with other people. Well, there's always two sides to a coin. I guess i'm able to make do with it...

So, for 2012... I plan to....

1. Lose weight >.< (it has always been my resolution coz i'm always unable to achieve it)

2. Pass AMusTCL

3. Sit for LTCL

i guess, that this year resolution is pretty much the same as last year's... at least it's a good thing. I'm not that fickle minded anymore. Wishing everyone a Happy New Year!!!

Pissed with Maxis

I know i've been missing lately... ever since i resigned, that's coz i'm adapting to my new life + no internet access @ home. However, i'm blogging today coz i'm really pissed off with Maxis.

Here goes the story,

I've subscribed to maxis data plan coz it comes with the contract for HTC Wildfire. On 19th Sept 2pm, i called in maxis center to ask when my contract ends coz i would like to unsubscribe to the data plan. Shahril - the PIC told me it ends on 15 Sept and i'm not bound to any contract anymore. So i told him i would like to unsubscribe to my internet data plan. He gladly unsubscribed it for me. One day later, my phone was barred. My unbilled amount is RM302++.... I was shocked. Not knowing what happen, i called Maxis customer service again, this time an Indian man attended to my call. Subra, if i'm not mistaken. He told me he is unable to check my bill but he could help unbar my call until my bill is ready. I waited to 1 day, but my phone is still being barred. On 21st Sept, I called them again. A gal name Preme attended to my call. The same answer was given, i have to wait for my bill to be ready before anything can be done. This time i told her to unbar me coz i've made partial payment to Maxis. She unbarred me 30 minutes later.

The worst part happens when i receive my bill. Maxis charge my internet data usage for RM280+++. I called them and the customer service told me i am charged so because of usage after 19th Sept - when i first call them to unsubscribe to my internet data plan. I told her i did not use the mobile internet after calling the center and she told me that i have to request for itemised bill before any action can be taken. So now, i will have to pay an extra RM5 for the bill to check on what actually happen to have caused such huge amount charged on to me.

All in all, no one is here to aid consumer and also to educate them on their rights. Today, i am being misbilled of RM250++, if I do not take action about it, when will this situation ends? Who will stand up for consumers? What can we do?

Just feeling helpless....

Last Day @ WorK

Yet another Last day @ work....


two months have passes by... fast? Not really but not too slow either. I have been contemplating with myself this two months, sometimes regretting my decision but sometimes, can't wait for this day to come. It's finally here - 3rd June 2011....

The end of something marks the beginning of something else. I hope I will be able to embark my future journey with happiness + hope. A new beginning that will enable me to find myself, that will enable me to find a purpose in life, a new beginning that permits more time for my family + friends.

As for the end of the previous journey, I'm really glad to be able to meet some good colleagues cum friends. Ppl who taught me, who bullied me, who joked with me, who shared their experience with me. Being at work is not easy - but ppl will grow only when there are hiccups in life.

it's the ups and downs in life that made one complete

Relieved

I've finally submitted the letter. That took a lot of courage coz it definitely means i will no longer have a stable income. But who-the-heck gives a damn bout it. $ is important but youth and time is more important than than. I refuse to sell my youth to $, hence i choose to resign and pursue my dream. Being freelance takes a lot of courage too, knowing that income is not stable and projects might not come continuously but at least, you can choose which project to take and set your own standard of dealing with things. I've realised, I'm not $ minded but $ conscious. I want to earn just enough to get by and do what i love to do. After all, life's short, it might just pass you by in a blink of an eye. Why get yourself commited and hopeless? I remember Mr. Thum said, fly like an albatross, not a sparrow. I wish to be free - to lead the life i want, to spend the time with whoever i want. Time should not be bought coz it is priceless....

Two quotes i find interesting and true...

“Time is free, but it's priceless. You can't own it, but you can use it. You can't keep it, but you can spend it. Once you've lost it you can never get it back.”

“Find something you love to do and you'll never have to work a day in your life”

Both by Harvey Mackay. So, there are people who thinks like me - i'm not an outcast~~
