Goober & Miscommunication


In Environment Economics class today, Mr Song (I must admit, the cutest guy lecturer ever - in terms of size and the way he talks!) brought a new "Goober" (or some may call it as Smucker) today!
He was telling us about different types of company legal statuses, and he gave an example of Private Limited Company which is Smucker owned by only family members. Most of us may know what's Goober but not Smucker Lol. So we were a little confused that time. Then he said he'll buy one jar for us and try in the class! Today, I didn't remember we were supposed to bring our own spoon. He expected no one will bring, he brought his own spoon for spreading and also a packet of cream crackers for us to eat with! So nice of him! I was the first to "try" it! Haha (as if i never try before). Before he passed to me, I saw the jar and I went like "OHHHHHH!"... then he joked "Oh!? okay no need to give edi...*put back into his "Go Green" bag* " lol! The whole class were soo excited and i just burst their bubble. lol. Luckily he was just kidding, then the whole class passed the jar around during his lecture. We were happy :)

Today, we learnt about Hierarchies in different types of companies. Narrowed it down to miscommunication, we had some activities in class which made us really awake and he showed us this.

*****
The Boss of a company initiates a mail to invite his staff to witness an Eclipse and how his message is passed by employees at different levels in the hierarchy and finally how it reaches to the staff.

Mail from CEO to Manager :
Today at 11 o’clock there will be a total eclipse of the sun. This is when the sun disappears behind the moon for two minutes. As this is something that cannot be seen every day, time will be allowed for employees to view the eclipse in the parking lot. Staff should meet in the lot at ten to eleven, when I will deliver a short speech introducing the eclipse, and giving some background information. Safety goggles will be made available at a small cost.

Mail from Manager to Department Head :
Today at ten to eleven, all staff should meet in the car park. This will be followed by a total eclipse of the sun, which will appear for two minutes. For a moderate cost, this will be made safe with goggles. The CEO will deliver a short speech beforehand to give us all some information. This not something that can be seen everyday.

Mail from Dept. Head to Floor Manager :
The CEO will today deliver a short speech to make the sun disappear for two minutes in the form of an eclipse. This is something that cannot be seen every day, so staff will meet in the car park at ten or eleven. This will be safe, if you pay a moderate cost.

Mail from Floor Manager to Supervisor :
Ten or eleven staff are to go to the car park, where the CEO will eclipse the sun for two minutes. This doesn’t happen every day. It will be safe, and as usual it will cost you.

Mail from Supervisor to Staff :
Some staff will go to the car park today to see the CEO disappear. It is a pity, this doesn’t happen everyday.

lol! enjoy!

roll over the weekends

I've been in Uni for almost 3 weeks & I have so many reasons for not updating my blog. (I'll make this short)
- time table packed with classes
- free time only for assignments (I've just done my 1st step of Assignment 1 for ENL!)
- hang outs with friends
- hang outs
- hang outs
- and more hang outs
- oh oh! Facebook as well! (but not so much of it nowadays)

To be honest, the time in Uni especially in Inti flew reaaallly fast! I don't even have time to call my mom! Anyhow, I'm coming back to KK soon. I miss KK food! hehe and mom's homecooked meals! and and and soups!!!!! *yums*

****

Actually I don't feel like updating cos I'm really tired. Woke up early in the morning for a jog. (not exactly a jog but... atleast walked and caught some morning fresh air before classes start). Emily, my coursemate has brought me into this! And now Zhen and Dan tagged along too. I'm not sure if they're gonna continue doing this cos we woke up at 6AM to jog this morning! haha.

Classes are okay at the moment. I love accounting class! :) Econs are okay too but too much theories and my mind tend to fly of somewhere after 30 mins of lectures. I don't wanna talk about ENL... I just hope that I'll survive in this semester. hehe.

Last weekend, Richard brought us to KL with his awesome Myvi! :) Etara, Dan, Zhen, Richard and I went to Pavillion for brunch. Then, we headed to Times Square for movie! We watched Up! The movie's nice. I can feel butterflies in my stomach whenever they reached the "height" scenes. (Those who watched Up prolly will understand what I'm trying to say haha). Then we had Bah Kut Teh for dinner! Took few photos cos I was busy walking and talking.

Oh yeah! I almost forgot! (Hmm! How can I forget about this!) We played bowling before movie in Times Square! It has been a while since I bowled. And the awesomeness thing is..... I beat Dan's score :DDDDDD should have celebrate! hmmmph!

Pictures!

Amazed by my scores.... :p hahaha! just kidding!

Daniel's brand new laptop

Guess whose room is this.
*drums roll*
.
.
.
.

It's Daniel's! (if not who else? haha) With his WASHED & CLEANED Arsenal towel!

*****
That was random. lol.

So last night Dan, Etara & I went to Ampang Point to get Dan's new laptop! Urgh. I'm jealous! haha. Etara recommended this shop cos he knows the owner. The privilege of knowing someone who knows the owner of a computer shop is...we get multiple free gifts from the shop!

Checking out for minor scratches & wiping off tiny bit of dusts. lol. The feeling of first time owning an expensive gadget.


One of his free stuffs! I'm soo jealous now!

Haha! Cassie must be laughing at this if she sees this!

So after spending countless hours in the computer shop explaining and showing new stuffs from the computer, Dan's cousin bro's girlfriend brought us for Taiwanese dinner! I love the pancake though but was too full to have 2nd piece! :(

Dumplings with glass noodle. yums*



We were planning to head back to our Uni but Dan's cousin bro's girlfriend (i forgot her name. eeekk*) suggested to bring us to the night market (Pasar Malam) at Taman Connaught...? hehe. Was really excited cos I have not been to a west malaysian style night market ever since.... i was in kindergarden! yippieee~


Daniel & his cousin brother. Dan is sooo... huge! Giant!

Etara in night market!

Mom would love this! and grandma too! :)

Smelly Tou Fu! Dan's cousin bro's girlfriend loves this and asked us to try. gosh. I don't wanna think of the smell anymore.


Our anxious faces before the tou fus went into our mouth. LOL retards!

oh oh oh! I really wanna post this picture! Since this guy loves looking at retard pictures, I shall give him his own picture!!
.
.
.
.

Muahahaha! The face of someone who has smelly tou fu stucked in his mouth for a long long long long time! torture! haha

I swallowed mine quickly. haha! Anyways, after night market we went back to our Uni. And it was late I went to bed straight away.

Sorry I'm a little rushing here. Just got a call for dinner!


hehe, Shereen W.

Happy Birthday Malaysia!

First time spending Merdeka Day in the campus. No family but friends that I met few days ago.
It was pretty cool. We online in the Dining Hall after dinner and we talked about computers. Well, not exactly. A new guy friend I met, Etara, talks a lot about computers and he showered us with all the techy info. Good though. At least we won't be cheated in computer shops. hehe.

After 12AM we walked out campus to find this stall called "Ramlee Burger". Instead, we found "Otai Burger". I know, it sounds funny but Etara said it's almost the same as Ramlee's. Too bad Ramlee closed his shop that time otherwise Daniel will have his first time tasting the famous "Ramlee Burger" in Msia on its' Merdeka Day. haha.

Pictures time!
Epic Fail. This one's for Doug XD

Dan looks so happy with his burger hahaha

Etara the camera shy

Retard.

Then, we walked back to our hostel. Went to Etara's block all the way to send his laptop back and get his stuffs for slumber party at Dan's room. *rainbow eyes* haha . On the way to mine and Dan's block, we saw this!

That's for you Doug! hahahaa! Remember the game Pictionary we played at Justin's place? HAHAA! And we saw moon on the way back to our hostel. and that reminded us of werewolf! HAHA! Good memories. I really miss that.

Anyways, I'm off to bed now. I hope Dan and Etara are having fun. :P phahahah.
(on standby mode for Dan's emergency phone call. LOL. or maybe... i'll just set silent mode. i reckon they'll be fine. XD)
