2 biul days and a note from CikWifey

The last 2 days has been a crazy busy day for me and the @enfiniti_vm team as we did our Team Building and Strategic planning for 2013. Plotting our next step...

With the new CEO and gaining new team members and temporarily losing one very pregger colleague, things are looking like as if a thunderstorm is heading towards us and it is a good one!

I have taken the leadership role a year earlier with a person under my team but today was actually the first time ever I ever did a proper department presentation to our board of directors. Not that I haven't done it in front of TJ and en IB before, I've done it many many times , the only thing is this time around , it is a proper business plan presentation where what ever I charted for my department for next year, we the creative team and especially us the department heads, holds accountability for air actions, plans and profits...

My department is a creative department, we support the company and its division across the board... How can I make sure that I will still bring in the the money when all my department's idea will then be executed by other division who then claims the ringgit KPI? That is exactly what I need to drive this department towards, a money making division .

An ultra stressful process preparing the plans, especially coming from someone like me who is all about creatives and hates to "Kira" duit...

But I think I pulled through. Tiring process it was but I managed to somewhat project that as far as the facts on paper makes its look ultra crazy... We know we can do this ! Woohoo! I was happy that even though I have always said to myself I would never be a salesman again doing 9-5 job because it can be so boring, I now get to do it and enjoy at the same time!

But even with everything , all the happiness in the world will not be complete without LOVE...

As much as I am very dedicated to my job, notes like this one (left by my wife on our fridge) makes me want to think again ... What are my priorities...

Time to think...

Oh btw did i tell u guys that today was a busy day for EVM? Because during lunch, we lost a Toshiba lappy, MacBook Pro, some cash amongst other things...

I am mengantuk...

(This was type late last night around 3 am and I just realized that I didn't press the send button hence why it is only posted now LOL I am not editing a single word so if anything up there doesn't make any sense forgive me as I was so sleepy when I wrote it)

About my #Bajet2013 quote alongside @TiaraJacquelina @suedanza @ngaiyuen by @syafique of @501awani

Aduyai, for the upcoming #BAJET2013 they ask for my wish list and I didn't realize Awani's journalist Syafique Shuib actually putting my face and quote in the same page as Datuk Faridah, Ngai Yuen, Suhaili and my boss! @TiaraJacquelina !

this is such an honor and to have my quote be the last line summore hehehe! tq Awani and Tq syafique.

Here is the original text that I sent to Syafique (check the malay version too hehehe not google translate ok)

Wishing that the arts and entertainment industry will be look upon with higher regards earlier in the education system as arts and entertainment can enhance our daily skills in dealing with daily life. Making our nation more animated and more extrovert rather than being an introvert. Especially useful in public speaking, dealing with clients and colleagues .

Saya mengharapkan bidang seni akan dipandang lebih tinggi dan serius lebih awal di dalam sistem pendidikan kerana ianya boleh meningkatkan kemahiran harian kita dalam berurusan dengan kehidupan harian. Membuat kita lebih menarik perhatian dan lebih peramah bukannya menjadi seorang pendiam. Terutama berguna dalam berhadapan dengan orang ramai, berurusan dengan pelanggan dan rakan sekerja khususnya. Dalam erti kata lain, bidang seni boleh menjadikannya kita lebih kreatif dalam apa jua bidang.

And I do hope Arts and Entertainment will be look upon as "pemangkin" for a better nation and a better future insyaAllah and not just as "Hiburan semata-mata" because the use of arts is endless... If only you can imagine it... So there's no harm to "berangan"...

Pernahkah anda lalui perkara ini... anda mengejar waktu, anda ada kecemasan, anda terdesak, anda tak tahan nak berak...

Dan satu satunya laluan terdekat kereta anda disekat oleh si LubangKeldai yang selalu ponteng kelas pendidikan moral/sivik semasa di sekolah rendah dahulu.

This is exactly what happened to me today, how could these 2 Lubang Keldai parked at the exit ramp???
Dah la the whole carpark is full!!! I am stuck here.

Apakah yang akan anda lakukan???

Biul!

Come PLAY with us !

Today we will PLAY! Are you ready to PLAY with us?

More info soon!

My BIUL day and how my wife transformed it into a BLISS.

Today is definitely a BIUL day for me… I started late because the old back ache came back to haunt me in the morning… I almost didn’t manage to get out of bed.

Walk into the office straight into discussion and project brief to colleagues and later straight into pre-launch preparation meeting for our latest product PLAY! ( www.facebook.com/PLAYCorporateTraining ) which was taxing to my brain!

Later at 2pm, another meeting with the whole office to update on our projects and was surprised with few emails and new datelines while multitasking listening to the meeting, throwing suggestions and at the same time negotiating proposal via FB inbox with a friend who lives in LA and being bombarded with whatsapp messages by my very pregnant colleague Amee (who is currently working from home) telling me problems caused by people with huge capital A attitude demanding stuffs that is out of our hand …

I became annoyed the whole day,

i forgot few stuffs,

i became angry and agitated,

I was randomly making weird loud sounds just to release tensions ,

I didn’t smile,

I forgot to call a dear friend of mine (who was offering some medical advise beneficial to me at no cost) that I promised to call last night but i didn’t… The problem is, I have always have a slight Hand eczema problem and normally it is very small and manageable but lately due to a high stress level (as my previous dermatologist told me) the hand eczema is becoming more obvious and became inflame… So he was suppose to advise me of what ointment to get from the pharmacy and I forgot to call him… But I am glad I managed to find time to call (Sorry and thanks Da)

I also forgot to call another dear friend who I usually chat and he sent me few Assalamuaikums on whatsapp , twitter and iMessage as a hint for me to call him back and I forgot to reply … (Sorry Pak Mulu)

i sounded slightly rude on the phone to a friend who i have not spoken too since Raya and all he wanted to do was to cheer me up after reading my FB status about a certain lubang keldai posting (sorry abear)

ONLY after i took my Wuduq for a very late zohor prayer I suddenly realized I haven’t spoken to my wife..

You see… Due to a late meeting I had yesterday , she decided to go back to her old place near KLIA because I won’t be able to pick her up from her bus shuttle drop off point in Subang in time ..

I felt bad…

I was so busy I forgot to call her .

As today we both need to work late, me and my piling-up works , her and her server down problems, only at 1045pm we manage to see each other and we had a very late dinner …

When we saw each other, She just smiled and I joked with her as usual. she told me funny stories from work and funny stories from our little niece who is trying to speak English … “We go to school same-same” is what Adik said referring to going to school together (same same : sama sama , geddit?) …

We were laughing we were smiling…

We didn’t talk about our work problems because all we have now is each other and why would we want spoiled the happy thoughts…

I know she is tired and stressed out with work and she probably know I am too… Thank god I have her to make me forget my BIUL day… And it was BLISS seeing u smile…

I love you sayang…
