Nostalgia..............

-
It is a nostalgia for me when I was browsing the photos taken by my daughters when we went back to Kedah recently....

The photos invite nostalgic feeling cause when I was about their age, I had always wanted to own a camera and to be able to take photos of paddy fields at my village......Those days, when I was still schooling almost everyday I had to cross the paddy field to get to school on my biccyle....the view was spectacular especially when it cahnged from green to yellow......I had always been dreaming of being able to capture those breathtaking scenery with my own camera (another crazy chilhhood dream)....sadly, though owning a camra at that time was considered a luxury and my life then was far from luxury......so it left as a dream until now....even though we have three cameras at home now, I still don't get chance to hold on them because my hubby (for his work) and my children are holding them.......

Anyhow, I'm grateful for my life now eventhough there are so many of my dreams had never been realized.......

The pic is not very clear because it was taken by my 'twins' at about 6.30 in the morning when they went jogging with their cousins......

Before the end of the schools break, my daughters managed to persuade their dad to spend a day at Cameron Highlands.

Weekends were out of question since there were more than half a dozen wedding invitations that we need to attend. So, anyway last Tuesday morning off we went to Cameron Highlands; just the five of us, hubby and I and the three girls who were beyond excited to go (none of the boys were going).   Since hubby had given a condition that he would be studying in the car all  the way if he was to go (his exam was on the following day), so  Sha was driving and I could tell that she loved every moment of it .. We arrived there at around noon and the place seemed crowded with people as it was ...

How to say no to your boss?

-
Well.....  the truth is you simply don't......it's something that I learnt that from my previous boss who advised me years back when I jhad just started my early career, the three magic words "never say no". Just the other day, I was debating with myself whether to say no or just accept my boss's suggestion (read: order) without giving him a slightest idea that I'm not capable of doing it ......it's kinda hard to explain coz it's not my job and I don't want to be a scapegoat to be doing it just because somebody else doesn't want to do it.  Anyway, it happened in the meeting, out of the blue like one bright idea bestowed upon him, my boss suggested me doing it ......which, no doubt appalled everyone in the committee and I was left absolutely stunned and speechless........obviously, I didn't make any comment and it was decided then.... Later, came few close friends playing devil's advocate......'This is not your ...
