A New Mission..

for today’s entry a little diversion from the usual. I bet most of my readers out there recall about me owning a Mexican Restaurant. Basically I was not involved directly in the day to day operation and instead leave it to my 2 partners cum manager. But recently one of my partners was pulled to set up another restaurant serving ‘mamak’ food called craven café at Bukit Antarabangsa. It is also one of Mr Hubby’s recent venture.

During this phase (absent of manager) from one of my outlet, a problem surfaced. On a recent occasion, we lost a day sales money from the cashier machine itself. I only get to know about it today and so u can imagine how upset I was!! but then again after it downed on me, I started to ponder and evaluate the problem.

I believe the weakness in my management and lack of supervision is the main cause of it all. Yes I have been very laid back in managing the outlet and frankly I totally leave it 100% to my partners. After a while I even lost track of staff n cant even remember who’s who. That’s how terrible I was!! I cant totally blame the thieves from having the guts to steal from me..well hey, the manager’s not around, what more the owner n who’s taking care of the sales money?? The waitress cum temporary supervisor. And it’s not fair to blame the poor girl either. I should have played a more active role as a busy body owner and poke my nose more than necessary!

And starting from today onwards..i vowed to be more in charge and I hope my staff will be prepared to face the ‘drama queen’ with all her dramatic manor, expression and attitude included!! Nobody STEALS from me…u hear me??? NO ONE!!!

Something to ponder...

After Jazzercise class on tues I went for a drink with my old buddy. It’s been quite sometimes since we had our coffee talk. We’ve been friends ever since our school days and I believe somehow our level of understanding and respect towards each other is some what unique. I don’t have to spell out what’s ok and not ok to be discuss..we agreed almost on everything and if we ever tend to differ in opinion no hard feelings existed. It’s all fine and well with us. Even though we hardly hang out as often as we like but never the less we do have that ‘bond’.

Our conversation most of the time is ‘heavy’ ranging from domestic to friends and family. And so..it makes me ponder for days now on what happiness, pain and sacrifices really means. No doubt life aint a bed of roses mine included but it’s the tactic of handling such situation that matter most. She had her up’s n down’s too..but what amazed me is her capability to stay calm n focus despite having to endure such a painful experience in her life.

Never once she lashed out or some might say ‘washing ur dirty laundry in public’ given her circumstances, I on the other hand will probably start updating my status in FB and lashing out on others in my blog. Where is my morale in that? Or can I simply say..i’m no angel I need to let it out??? And so is it fair to declare that I’m a happier person after all those stunt? Hhmmm..i wonder if my act of defensiveness and attitude is acceptable?

Again I believe no individual handles stress and crisis the same. I might find solace in being ignorance. The less I know the better the situation is??? That’s what I thought and might want to stay believing. No matter how bad our situation can get I for once believe that good judgment and a moment of silence will do wonders. Silence is golden, silence may also means a thousand words.

So my story is the next time I feel the need to let someone know a piece of my mind I would probably do it a day after. Giving myself ample of time to think with my head not with my furious heart!!! I’ll take a deep breath, a moment of silence and sleep it over, wake up the next morning and then I will decide if it’s worth hurting other’s like the hurt I felt inside. I might be a little forgiving but not forgetting. And most probably the choice of words would be less hurtful!! If u believe in the golden rule ‘"Do unto others as you would have others do unto you." Then u will choose wisely.

And so friends..me being a little poetic at the moment has nothing to do with other people dead or alive..it’s just something to ponder and on my part a lesson learned!

kick..kick..punch..punch..u want some???

I’m going for Jazzercise later..to sweat it out physically and mentally.

Physically for the obvious reason..that Megan Fox body is torturing and haunting me forever!!! Hahahaha well I know I’m aiming for the mountains but hey who cares..as long as I don’t drop dead while working out!!

Mentally because of the turn of event that unfolds today…u see there r certain things u can joke about but hey..it doesn’t seems funny to me when it involves ‘polygamy’. I’m amazed at a certain insensitive being called friends..*his friends* to be exact, cracking a joke bout the big ‘P’. Ohhh well it’s nothing serious really…he was juz joking..he said and in return my defense mechanism went full swing and lashed out at that friends statement in full force.

Regrets I have not..it’s as simple as that!!! But oh boy my anger testosterone (if it ever exist in my cell) is rocketing sky high that I feel the need to burn it out tonite before I’m force to become that ugly b*&^% wife syndrome.

So..u see this is something all husband shud avoid at any cost! And that ends the rambling of a provoked and over jealous wife!!!!

How was ur day??? Mine?? not so pleasant...

I’m not a happy person/mom today. Reason being?? I’m tired..hhmmm I thought I have the energy of a 20 yrs old but boyyyy..was I wrong!!! The day started when I had to get my influenza jab as I’m traveling in less than 2 weeks. I had to wait 11/2 hrs in d clinic itself , too many sick ppl. The worst thing is the after effect as I’m having a sore in my right arm. According to the doctor it is normal and expect to have some discomfort .

Back home workers are mending to my leaking problem and the piano is due for service and a technician is on his way. Hmmm a house full of strangers and allysha just refused to nap!! I had to play and run after her not counting the tantrum showing and Play House Disney running on the tele and nothing else. Ohh god by 5.30 pm my whole body and mind is ready to shut down. Arrgghhhh..motherhood..who ever says it’s a bed of roses???

I was still thinking positive at that time UNTIL…it rained and my house started leaking!!! Bibik is running around with towels and buckets!!! What the heck!!! I was mad..mad..and MAD!! Hubby called the contracter and he came asap. Even though he apologized I was still amazed and puzzle at his answer…I mean..come on..i’m sure my house is not ur first job??? I mean yesss I understand it’s not quite complete but then again..dont u think u shud have covered

the roof with canvas in case it RAINS??? Uurrrgghhhhh…I am so gonna email s*** d**** if they did a shitty job on my house. And oh yeah..i do have the evidence in hand. That’s what camera are for!!!

It’s nearly 11pm now and guess what my super active baby girl just fall asleep..JUST, OKAY!!!..well no matter what they are still my hunny bunny. It’s okay sayang..mama is juz a bit tired today but tomorrow will be a difference story..i promised to be more lively and they’ll be plenty of hide and seek with u..hehehe. Looking at their sleeping faces makes all the agony fly away. So angelic and so peaceful. Sweet dream sayang…mama loves u both!!!

So..the question now..why don’t u sleep madam Amelia??? Busy blogging are u?? oohhh I thought u said ur tired?? What was that?? Ur hooked and cant sleep without a blog entry??? Hahaha..yeaahhh I’m getting delusional by now. Okay peeps..cheers!!!

In the mood for everything Orange + Green

I went shopping again today and realized that for the past few weeks I’ve been attracted to this two color scheme, Orange and green thus my intention to know more of this colour and it’s meaning. You see, like most human being I do have a phase in life, it’s just that sometimes it is not that simple to interpret why and what is the cause of such feelings and mood swings. So being the curious me the next best thing to do is to diagnose this recent colour craze of mine and this is what I got online.

Orange –

It is associated with joy, sunshine, and the tropics. Orange represents enthusiasm, fascination, happiness, creativity, determination, attraction, success, encouragement, and stimulation.

To the human eye, orange is a very hot color, so it gives the sensation of heat. Nevertheless, orange is not as aggressive as red. Orange increases oxygen supply to the brain, produces an invigorating effect, and stimulates mental activity. It is highly accepted among young people. As a citrus color, orange is associated with healthy food and stimulates appetite. Orange is the color of fall and harvest. In heraldry, orange is symbolic of strength and endurance.

If you wear orange, you are action oriented and competent. Orange symbolizes practicality, independence, organization and creativity. You are self-motivated, active and competitive. You need to be careful not to try and dominate others.


Green –

Green is the color of nature and it soothes and refreshes. The color of green is considered healing and a good omen for those in trouble. Green is a strong energy and attracts a lot of positive power, it is the shade of peace and harmony. Green can indicate a situation that will seek the most peaceful solution possible, and follow the paths of least resistance. It is the color of honesty and truth.

Green contains the powerful energies of nature, growth, desire to expand or increase. Balance and a sense of order are found in the color green. Change and transformation is necessary for growth, and so this ability to sustain changes is also a part of the energy of green.

Put some green in your life when you want:

• a new state of balance
  
• feel a need for change or growth

• freedom to pursue new ideas

• protection from fears and anxieties connected with the demands of others
  

So in conclusion..i’m balancing a bit of orange and a bit of green in life right now…hhmmm does it make sense??? I wonder….
