Where did I got the name Skinny legs?

No where...

It was destined to be mine. => . It happened to pop up just like that one day which I obviously don't remember. No wait. I do. I was editing my profile in friendster some ages ago and I happened to have a picture of my legs. My profiles before was somewhat uninspired and lack of that cool factor. Haha. I wanted Something different and what was uniquely me. Skinny legs was perfect and it resembles me totally even though there are a lot of skinny legs out there. Haha. Infact there's a restaurant in USA named Skinny Legs. It was discovered by Kak Syu herself. Haha.

So it wasn't totally mine after all but I stuck with it. During that time, I had lots of people viewing my profile. Cam glemer lah kan. Haha. Who is this Skinny legs? Everyone was swaying their way in. Well, almost everyone. Yet, I liked it though. The nick not my leg. I'm not really a fan of my legs. Unless it was Gisele Bunchen like, I'll be a total knockout but sadly I'm not. *Sigh*. I'm thankful. That's basically where I got the nick. Cool eh?

Oh yeah, I had a lot of nicks based on my physical. Papan, tulang, Penyapu, Olive and the list goes on. The best one was given by mom... Kain Buruk. Leh x?

Goodies

Adek just got back from Jordan last two Saturday (warning: this entry is waaaaay expired...heeee). Boy, it was a long wait. I was counting each and everyday hoping for that day to come as quickly as possible. Yeah, it sure did as time these days are running fast. So fast that you don't have much time to do things. Like updating the blog :P. Anyway, her flight was estimated to arrive around 0930 Malaysian Time. We waited for her at the arrival gate...and waited...and waited some more. Shiishhh, what's taking her so long?

Apparently, she showed up an hour later. I didn't mind waiting because I got to feast my eyes on those foreigners. All delicious looking. *Smugging* Adek showed up looking pretty much the same. Yeah, because we were skype-ing each other now and then, so I didn't see much of a differences in her. Although she did looked a bit different with those braces. Yep, definitely different. She did looked a lil skinny though. Our reunion with her was somewhat unemotional. Yelah, setiap hari dok skype-ing and yahoo-ing je so xde perasaan yang beria-ia sangat. But I was excited.

As always, one goes on a trip, one bring back home goodies. She certainly did. She bought us goodies which you can wear, eat and so on. She bought me these two beautiful jubahs which was neat except the size didn't fit me well the fact that the Arabians are bigger in size. I had to alter it to fit my skinny figure which sometimes can be a challenge. Who says skinny people doesn't have problem with fitting? I obviously have that problem.

Anyway, my sister bought these chocolates which looks like rocks. You know, rocks. The ones you get in the aquarium. Those colorful little rocks. The chocolates looked exactly like them. No kidding. It's really chocolates and delicious too. I brought them to work. My colleagues seems to be astonished and amazed (jakun OK). They were playing with them too. Haha.

Adek bought a lot actually. Not just for my fam, but also for our cousins. The special ones got special things but the not-so-special was not to be left behind. So Adek bought them key-chains which they had their names on them. I got one too, except mine was cool. It too has my named written on it. It was written on spaghetti which means it was small in size. Syazwani Alone what was written on the spaghetti. Adek didn't realized that Alone when she got home. She told the Arabian guy to spell Along, but instead ended up with Alone. OK OK. I know that I am alone, dateless and all, but does it have to be spelled out to tell them that I'm alone? Hahaha. Funny Arab.

Unpacking suitcases can be one exciting and a suspensions moments. It's like opening up a treasure chest that unlocks to precious treasures. In this case, a jubah, chocolates rocks and Syazwani Alone. Still, I enjoyed unpacking her suitcase, I enjoyed looking at her unpacking her suitcase. Who wouldn't be? I wonder when it's my turn? Hmmm.....

P.S Yesterday, Atul called me Wanu. Wanu??? Hahaha. Typo OK.

Peers at work

It has been almost two years since I started working. So many things happened in that almost two years. There are those who fled away in search of a better place while others are still hanging on, tight. Despite we are under some major hazard moments, yet we managed to loosen up a little. Just to remember ourselves that it's not the end of the world. Well, I constantly telling myself this all the time.

I have to admit I enjoyed my stay with these folks even though my job is cranky me up big time. There are only 3 who has been the longest people who are staying strong in this project including me ;-). The other two is my seniors. I salute them for holding on for so long. My head is under water right now. Drowning like any moment. Huhu.

There's Kak Ina, fragile and soft. She deals with people as soft as she can even that person is bringing her a hell of a time. She's small in size yet she's big in the brain. Oh yeah. She's the developer in this project. The only developer and she is handling it all by herself. How on earth does she handles that? A person with a lot of patient and I'm so impress she managed to keep it the same tone even when she's mad.

Kak Siti, aggressive and witty. This lady has the stare as though she wanted to swallow you and slit your throat. She can be serious at times where if approaching her can gives you the stir but she's a sport. She blends well with people younger than her and she sure can act as one too. Her signature laugh could be recognize anywhere. A Hindustani die-hard fan, she's definitely fun to hang out with.

Kak Long or Kak Am we refer her to, adorable and opened, she's the eldest. A mother of four and like the mother to us too. Almost. She smiles even during her wits end moment. She talks about anything which makes her approachable and she doesn't mind sharing her flaws. She just joined this project for only 3 months so and so but its like I've known her forever.

The rest is the juniors even though they are all older than me ;-). All with their heads. There's Ann, a perky gal with a perky dressings to match who laughs her stomach out and speaks her mind. Someone who is all about having a good time. Shud, the Kedahrian who has this thick Kedah accent where she expresses her words assertively. Krie who seems a little timid but seems to be enjoying herself...hmmm...I think. Then there's the guy, all beautiful with white fair skin but the moment he opens his mouth....Go figure.

Last but not least, me, the independent chick around. Haha. I'm being boastful. It supposed to be me, the late one arriving to work everyday. Guilty. Above all, this one experience working with them its something I won't get anywhere else. And not forgetting the past people plus those who aren't with the project anymore that I've worked with. Kak shu, Kak Lyn, Atul and a few bunch to be named. All different.
