Exciteful - A description for a weekend.

I don't know.. Weekends seems to be promising a lot of excitements, even though it's not always as what I expected.

Work was as busy as usual. As I'm now doing two things; as a Timber Agent, and working with Kota Emas doing the metal scrap.

I actually can manage those two jobs if everyone is actually cooperative. I would have to visit the sawmill everyday as to ensure they're doing their job as they've been paid. At the same time, I would be having to go to the bank, get cash and pay the customers, which something that someone else could replace me doing such a thing.

Normally in the morning, I would go mingling with people I just met, (in business, now I knew that 'mingle' is a magic word of everything). Buying them breakfast, have some puff of cigarette with them and anything, just to make life easier.

Doing business is initially hard, but things will go at ease as everyone knows and trusts you at most. Well, that's the problem.

The relationship I've built up in the Metal Scrap business has actually put me into problems as people were actually looking for me for everything, anything. Yes, I was taking the responsibilities over the business before, I love the business. Everyone would love the thing they've started. But they only wanted me to help on the metal thingy before my job in the timber thingy started. So I know where my position. As my timber job started, i should no longer bother the metal thingy. That's really what they actually wanted me to do so.

And they even asked me just to take care of the Timber thing, and the other partner will have to take care only on the scrap metal thingy.

But things has turned around all over upside down. I was also asked to take care of the scrap metal thingy, take back the scrap metal, do the documents, claim for the payment, get the cheque to the bank and queue up to cash the cheque, once the cash is in hand, go and pay the customers.

(those underlined were things that other people may actually do it, but they don't. They rely on me on everything)

At the same time, I will have to see people for the timber thingy. Get involved with those people as my knowledge in timber is, actually to compare with those people, not even 1% of what they've already knew.

As a learning process, gotta know them, mix with them and to be loved by them.

At the sawmill, if I didn't show up, they won't saw my timbers. It has week I've not visited the sawmill and it's been a week they sawn other people's timber, which i've paid them to do mine first!

And I have to take a few people to go here and there, just to look for a new source of timbers. Either new sawmill, new log supplier or even to get the timbers from indonesia to be imported.

If I am able to finish all the things in the morning, the cheque signor would be already at home by 1, so how do I catch up with things.

I need a helper....

Weekends, got wedding at my apartment, and this has really excites me. I've to get involved in a city wedding.

There are a lot of differences between the kampung wedding and the city wedding.

People will actually get involved or get busy in the kampung weddings, or some people call it 'rewang'.

So I was busy the whole weekends. And my friends were mad at me for not picking up their calls.

*************************

But, the real excitement was, I was talking and keep talking for the past 4 days..

Especially the After Maghrib call.. :*

American Idol and Fuel Prices

Last nite, Bo Bice was doing very well, so do Vonzell and finally, as that I've been waiting for so long, Scott is voted out!

For the next week, let us pray that Anthony will be one the next kickouts! He should be eliminated earlier.

Starting by today, The fuel price will increase will increase by 20 sen for diesel and 10 sen for petrol.

Petrol
Old Price :: RM1.42
New price :: RM1.52

Diesel
Old Price :: RM0.88
New Price :: RM1.08

My full tank now would be mor ethan RM60 after this. My lorry full tank would be more than RM40 after this.

That's a lot of money!! RM60, in my case wouldn't last longer than 3 days!

What the government is trying to do!

The name Izham...

Is it true that there are not so many people with the name Izham in the world? Search on google mostly return result on myself :p and some other people with the name Izham too.

Or maybe there are not so many people looking for the name Izham.

The govenrment at last, reacted quick on the diesel problem. Anyway, it's not what i really worried of,

You must have heard about those rascals being caught. What doubted me was, what happened to those rascals. There was no followups on the cases compared to the rape or murder cases being covered in the media.

I WANT JUSTICE. THEIR CASE SHOULD BE COVERED WIDELY BY THE MEDIA AS WELL. I WANNA KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THESE RASCALS.

Or maybe they're just scapegoats by the government to cover up what they are actually doing with the diesel.

I'm not accusing, but if it does look fishy, everyone can say anything about it. As long as it does not harm the country, YET.

Okay.. done with that :p

I had to work on the last Saturday. The timbers had to be sent to the rteatment sawmill. The treatment is call BORAX, which is it using the Boric Acid to be pushed into the timbers. The purpose is to refrain the timbers from being damaged by insects.

Later of the day, the whole family went to Mersing and picked up my bro to take him back to Seremban. From Mersing, I drove. That was a good driving experience. The last time I drove there was on a Satria V6 (borrowed from my ex-GF) and told ya that was a hell of driving experience, after my experience with a Satria GTi and an EK Type-R on Ulu Yam's Road. Another good experience was from Bentong-Gua Musang-Bentong, which was in a Kancil.

And that last Saturday I did it again. I was driving 140-160 km/h on that kind of road. My father seems enjoying the cornering and being pulled down the down-curving roads. My sister and my Mom was just keeping themselves quiet. I need to reach KL b4 10.

At 10, I was still in Seremban and I had to cancel all my appointments.

Sunday :: Woke up late, I went to KL and met Farok. Discussing about the Thailand/Indonesian thingy. I might have to go to Thailand/Indonesia on this deal. Great! Was spending ime at Chili's, but this time with my Bro Izzat. As an ex-Butt-Watch, we sat at the side of the KLCC pool and do what ever things we want till we get back at 5.30.

At night, we went out for dinner...

Monday :: I was actually hoping that I can go out with Azreena, kinda miss to see her and talk. There's a lot of things to talk about. But I ended up staying at home, what I was doing, oh yeah, i just bought home my Les Paul Imitation guitar and playing around with it.

I'm thinking of playing guitar seriously.

I should..
