Horror Dream

... Exorcising again last night... Having ghostly dreams on and off... Even though I have not watched Juon type movies for a long time... Last night was about some evil spirits that turn my music room into a war zone... So i was "in the name of Jesus Christ I command you to leave my place immediately" ... Repetitively until I voiced out in the dream and woke up... Was I scared? Yupe, a bit, but I know my Lord Jesus will always keep me safe.

Customer

Received an "impolite" call from a customer from the infamous state, complaining that I didn't tell him that he has to pay separate attestation fees if her daughter sign the docs in another legal firm (in his own state of course). He was furious because if he knew he had to pay RM200+ just for attestation he could have flown over to KK to sign. I tried to recall his memory by telling him that on the day he met me, he tried to get discount off the legal fees saying that her daughter is not signing in front of me and that I should deduct the attestation fee from the legal fee and I explained to him that can't be done because our legal fee is for the loan documentation and in fact we did not charge extra for attestation so if his daughter sign elsewhere separate attestation is payable. He still denies ever heard me say anything about that... and then he said "I don't know what you mean by attestation"... Okay... (keeping my cool with lots of effort) "Mr L, maybe I was not clear then and I apologise for that, maybe I can deduct RM50 of my miscellaneous charges in our Bill, would that be okay for you?" Then only he replied with a grunt "Like that OKAY LAH"...    SIGH!

I could have been mean to him:

“If you go to a restaurant and eat would you not expect to be paying after the meal?”

“When you were at the firm in your state, didn’t you ask if you need to pay before you sign?”

“You were asking for the attestation fee to be discounted off our legal fee, that shows you understand you need to pay extra attestation fee in Sarawak, right?”

Short Christian

PTL? GBU? They sound horrible… “pee-tea-ale”, “gee-bee-u”… Sorry but I can't appreciate short forms like these! For what Christ has done for us, was it even too troublesome for people to just type "Praise the Lord" and "God Bless You" in full?

Stupid is as stupid does

We requested from the Vendor's solicitors, a Letter of Undertaking to refund loan sum in the event the transfer of title cannot be registered as stipulated in the Sale and Purchase Agreement. The brilliant lawyer replied saying that the LU is not required now because the "contingency" of "the title cannot be registered" has not happened, and so the Vendor doesn't need to provide the LU now.

Dealing with a Cucumber

There is this urgent drawdown that I have don't know told her how many times I want to get it done before the harvest festival holidays (even drafted the DD for her)... she always just "ah ah ah" but when I check with her for the stamping status, her answer is always "I called but the person in not in", "I called but the person in charge is away" etc Then today when she gave me the same answer I got so upset, I thot whatever with the LHDN I think I can still advice bank to release on the confirmation that the loan documents are just pending stamp duty payment... so I checked all documents then this:
Me: Ey XX how come you didn't adjudicate the DARP?
XX: Ya, I saw we charge DARP stamp duty in our bill, but the document  is not there?
Me: (showing her a pile of DARP) The documents are here what
XX: I didn’t see them the other day...
Me: ... Can you please do it now
PS: I got time to type all these down because I am waiting for her to pass me back the file after she done adjudicating the DARP which should have been done on 17.05.12...

Homemade flea trap

Uh no, I think Little Dan is infested with flea…

Coz we found “flea dirt” on his forehead…

 

Little Dan’s point of view

LD's cuteness is...

When we bring him out for a walk passing through the security booth,
instead of stopping us, the guard said, "liang oh"...

when I was trying to drag him into the lift as fast as I could to avoid any reprimand...
The guard at the lobby just said "kiut la"

Havanese

Honestly, I have no idea what breed is Little Dan of...

I do know he is mixed and can’t be a Havanese!

But some how, he resembles almost 100% a Havanese!

How did that happened?

 

Cute cart… would love to have one for Little Dan!

Noise Above

One of the reason why I can’t wait to move out from home is because I can't stand the neighbour’s weekend blast of noise! Now I moved to my own apartment only to find another inconsiderate ma'nia staying above me…

These annoying “syok sendiri” people should be stroke deaf!!!

I have tolerated the noise for weeks, but today I had enough so I gave the security a call. So they were warned and turned down the volume a little… but within an hour, the security came up to my unit… apparently, they are now complaining about the noise from my apartment when the management people came to fix the defects in my unit (which was only for about 10min as the worker need to cut of the tiles to redo the water exit in my dry yard) while they have had the loud music on for the entire morning till afternoon!

I can’t believe it! shinjirarenai!

The Sixth Year

Without realising it, I’ve accumulated 6 pcs of Practice Cert…
Commencing mid June 2012 is my 6th year in practice…

 

Christmas Toy 2012 - Sony VAIO

I’m supposed to get a new camera, but alas, my Mini Dell died on me…
so I had to get a new laptop and ended up with this model…

My first Sony Vaio…

Japanese Curry is the best

From Ikea to Alam Damai

Safe and …. no sound!!!

From Ikea:

To AD

Thank God the glass planes are safe!!!

Little Dan’s new Vet

I’ve finally decided that I had enough of the previous Vet who won’t even touch my Little Dan during his visits… and switched to Century Animals.

When I stepped into the clinic, there weren’t a crowd… unlike what I usually see in the previous vet… the clinic is small but comfortable…

Little Dan was still a bit nervous…

Then Doc DL came out… a small but very nice and kind looking young chap!

When I put Little Dan up the examination table, Little Dan was shivering so hard that the whole table started to wobble… I was a bit embarrassed but Doctor just said “Don’t worry about, most dogs are nervous like that when they came up the table”…

Because Little Dan is not “very cooperative” we put a muzzle on his mouth… and the nurse checked his temperature (yes, she managed to, the last vet NEVER EVER succeeded in doing that).

What is even more amazing is, the nurse managed to draw blood from Little Dan’s leg! Doc Lim held Little Dan’s neck, and asked me to look into Little Dan’s eye to distract him from the needle… and although Little Dan did cry a little… the nurse managed to get blood sample from Little Dan!

WITHOUT HAVING to “kepit” him between two doors!

After ensuring that Little Dan is healthy and doesn’t have a any heart worm problem, Doc get ready the Pro Heart vaccine and asked me to hold Little Dan’s head… he administered the injection so fast but I was looking at him rather than Little Dan that I didn’t hold Little Dan’s head properly and Little Dan nearly snapped the Doc. But Doc just gave him a gentle whack on his buttock and gently warned him.

All through the time, Doc was talking to Little Dan, touching him and talking to us in either Mandarin or English… when he was speaking to Little Dan in English, my cute mommy even asked him to speak to Little Dan only in Chinese please, hahaha…

Look at that happy face after everything is over!
Little Dan’s injection will be due 27.08.2012!

NO MORE VET for a year… sure the boy is happy!

Back to Walks

Rainy Season is finally gone!!!

Beh Tahan incident II

I just came from from court...
FP1: Bank is chasing for Datuk's drawdown
Me: Have you started drafting the DD? (which I have asked her to do since 01.07.11, ie 10 days ago)
FP1: You want to do it?
Me: Ha??
FP1: Ya I mean you want to do the DD yourself?
Me: You do it lar, I can't do everything (for you right?)

Who is ordering who around here ah?

If I already do prepare the loan docs for her, type my own letters and signs it, and now have to prepare the drawdown advice (for not so urgent files), why do I need an assistant then?

To “geek” my “sum” ah?

How Much Longer…

I don’t know how much longer I can “tahan” my anger and keep myself from yelling at people…

This is what happened this morning

Me: The xxx files that I have asked you to change the cover and type in one extra work to the Landowner's name since last week, have you done it?

FP2: Sorry, saya tidak sempat buat lagi...

Me: Printing out the cover typing in one word would only take you about 3-5 minutes... and I saw you just left the files on the typewriter and I myself changed the cover already…

FP2: ...

Me: Have you called the Purchaser to pick up the SPA? (I've told her earlier on the Purchaser needed the SPA urgently to claim EPF)

FP2: I have called many times

Me: But the Purchaser says she never get any call from us and complained to the Developer

FP2: saya ada call

Me: Did you get through?

FP2: I called many times but no one answer

Me: .... What number did you call? Did you call the house number? There's a handphone number inside the file, did you call that number?

FP2: ...

New Toy!

Yupe, a new toy…
and it’s an iPad2 with wifi + 3G

Of course I don’t have any more “allowance” for 3G subscription… but the new toy comes with a GPS chip!
I’ve got to try it out!

So, I took the iPad2… holding it in my hand with my iPod touch on the other hand… and went walking Little Dan!

By the time I went up the digi tower hill and came back, Little Dan already returned home on its own long time ago… the weather was so hot… when I get to sit down to check the readings…

Alamak… after the “burning” walk I only l burned 38 calories? That’s only about 2 tablespoon of cooked rice!

Peanuts & Truffles

They say you pay peanut you get monkey;
well guess what you get if you pay with truffles!

The secret in managing productive people is to use the “fly kite” theory or the carrot and the donkey trick!

You must let them “work” for it and WILLINGLY!

Reward them accordingly!

Being “fair” by giving same amount of bonus to entire staff is actually being UNFAIR to those how worked hard and will only demoralize them at the same time giving reason to the lazy incompetent staff to continue their way of working in the office!

I hope the Firm realise this soon… I just can’t bear to work with the Koala and the Sloth any longer…
