Step 1:
To 131 008:
Good day sir/madam.
Yesterday, I flagged down one of your taxis in the Melbourne CBD along Swanston St. The driver proceeded to ask me my destination, and when I told him near Melbourne University (as I live there), he swore at me and drove off. Not only that, he pointed the middle finger at me and my companions. Following this, he pulled over 1 street ahead of us in front of a night club. As we walked past, I looked into the cab and he pointed the middle finger at me directly in my face once again.
I am very upset at this treatment. For the sake of your company's good name, immediate and harsh disciplinary action should be taken against him. His taxi number was M 6421 and he was of Indian or Sri Lankan descent. I am not sure if this was racial discrimination, as me and my companions were of Malaysian descent. I hope he is dealt with swiftly. No human being should disrespect others in such a manner.
Please do not take my email lightly, as he may repeat this in the future. Thank you for your time and please let me know if any action has been taken. I would also like to know if he is an immigrant so I can report him to DIMA or other relevant authorities.
Thank you.
Damn tulan now. But I've included some lighter stuff below. Enjoy! Augustisbored.blogspot.com is BACK!

Fan Mail =P
In reply to the earlier post about my trip to Ipoh:
Dear August,
How are you? Hope you are fine back in Malaysia. Ah Ma and I are fine here in Melbourne. Thank you very much for blogging about your trip to Ipoh. Ah Ma and I found it very interesting. Hope you enjoyed yourself there.
Okay..with the niceties out of the way, now............
Eh apek! You not happy with Ipoh izzit?? Wanna get whacked ah? You just wait til Ah Ma and I go to Sarawak and kutuk everything in sight like what you did when you reached Ipoh!
Your post a bit the one- sided hor?? Haha..How come you didn't blog about your many trips to the loo to ulti? And about the way you two had me drive all the way to Jusco just so u guys can ulti for like 25 freakin' minutes! Made me wait in the car looking like a complete idiot!
[For the uninitiated, Ulti = Ultimate = Number 2 = Pass Motion = Poo = Pang sai. Apparently, you can't poo till you've reached a 'critical' point because poo-ing at your critical point will enable you to save time as the poo comes out faster. And how might one go about achieving this critical point, you might ask. Simple. Just restrain yourself from going to the toilet for the number 2 until you feel like your world would explode if you didn't relieve yourself. And that, my dear friends, is a 'critical'. ] [ information courtesy of Guan Hui Ong, 2007]
And about the way you scoffed at Perak's caves since you said, and I quote, "You're bringing me to see gua? Cheh! I have the deepest gua in the world leh!". -_-" And here I thought only girls have 'gua's. How ignorant I was.
And what about the way you bugged me the whole entire day to drive u all 45 minutes away to Tanjung Rambutan to see Hospital Bahagia (Tanjung Rambutan is a place btw, Hospital Bahagia is the mental institution) just so you can take a picture with it to show the world that you've been there? There's actually no need, since the whole world knows you deserve to be in it anyways :P
And the way you guys made me come to your hotel at 7 am in the morning and when I reached you two were still snoozing away all wrapped up in the blankets and still stinky stinky and I had to wait until 9 plus before you two vain pots were ready to be off.
And what about the way you released a few powerful 'bombs' in my car while we were cruising Ipoh Parade looking for a parking space just before we went to K-Box?
Ok lah...I shall stop embarassing you here since I've run out of time. Actually you two made our weekend fun and enjoyable. It was cool ferrying you around, even if you did release fragrances in my car ^_^. Come again next time and we'll eat more good food!! *grin*
Love,
Omega and Ah Ma

Temporary Shutdown
Why?
1. I don't have a functioning PC in Miri - plus I had more important things to do during CNY (aka gambling, gambling and more gambling)
2. My PC in Melbourne thinks she's Sleeping Beauty. Only she won't even start up after I kiss her.
Think my hard disk died. FUCK. Hope there is a way to recover all my photos in there.
Oh and happy belated Chinese New Year people =)
It's good to be back.

10 Weeks
So it ends.
For all my grumblings about how boring or sien I was at work, I know how important this short period of time is on my future.
All the words in print in this world will never substitute the value of first-hand experience.
I have learnt a lot about myself as well, during this time. I have discovered shortcomings, such as being unable to communicate with others at times due to language/culture/age differences.
In short, this internship at Shell will serve me well in the future. Go me!
(not to mention my resume looks so much better now)

Happy Valentines Day...?
I thought you're only supposed to say it to one person.
Apparently not.
Today I put "is it the norm to wish friends happy vday?" on my MSN nickname. Quite a number of people replied me.
And they all said yes.
And then wished me Happy Valentines Day to boot.
And a couple of them were guys.
...
Is it just me or is something wrong here?
Apparently not.
