Game Of Thrones



I was introduced by my friends to watch this series "Game Of Thrones", it is an American medieval fantasy television series by David Benioff and D.B Weiss, based on author George R R. Martin's best selling A Song of Ice and Fire series of fantasy novels.

It was pretty slow at first and seems like a normal medieval stories. The dramatic and tragic ending of its chapter kept me watching it non stop. It is an awesome medieval series. I love it. The best character for me is Tyrion of Lannister and Daenerys Targeryen. Tyrion is a smart ass and I love the way he manipulate his words and his straight forwardness. Daenerys is full of mysteries and beautiful.

I always love classic english and the way they used to introduce themselves... I am Tyrion the son of Tywin Lannister hehe..

I can't wait for the second season to aired... meanwhile, Im following Gossip Girl and Pretty Little liars :P

The Royal Malaysian Traditional Spa (The Reneau Spa) at Plaza Damas review - Rude customer service

I am so pissed off today, supposing my cheerful day out for a spa package was filled with a bad and sucks experience of customer service at this Spa: The Royal Malaysian Traditional Spa (The Reneau Spa) at Plaza Damas.
 
The story goes like this:
 
I bought the 4 package for this Spa on early September and call them on 13 sept to book for 8/10/11 session. Their staff has confirmed our booking and they do not inform us about anything else.
 
On 8/10/11, we arrived at Spa, greeted and the supervisor was surprised as she said it's already full.
 
I told her I booked already and it is confirmed by her staff on 13/9/11. With a tight face, she asked did i reconfirmed again yesterday. I said, no cause I am not told to reconfirmed in fact it's already confirmed.
 
She asked for the staff name. I said I forgot cause its already a month and if I had, i jot it down in the office. So I asked how come my book is not listed. She said that I should reconfirmed and keep on saying that I should reconfirmed. My name is not in the list thus she said she doesnt know whether I'm telling her the truth. (WTF! how could she blame a customer! what she think that i'm an idiot or a liar and never been to a spa and didn't know that i have to booked first? so I start to piss off).
 
I said, perhaps she could say her staff name so that i can remember whom i spoke too. She refused cause she said they are busy so could not disturb them.. and then she cant do anything cause it's full anyway (with a rude tone). Then she disappear at the back and she's NOT YET appologize to us.
 
So I'm so pissed off and talked to my friend saying that she is so rude to treat us this way, no apology and no feeling of regret towards her way treating us.
 
Perhaps she heard our conversations, she appear again and said she's sorry. I said perhaps you can call your staff regarding this maybe your staff remember me. Again she refused!!!! she said no point to call them cause u did not reconfirmed and your name is not in the list. She said ... If u make the booking your name should be in the list.
 
I was angrier cause she keep on blaming us, I asked what kind of method u used in making booking, how come your staff said it is confirmed and my name is not in the list??
 
She said, they should tell her and she would reconfirmed to customer. She said if I call the hand phone number, most probably her staff forgot. So I said well it is your mistakes that your staff didn't jot it down. it is not our mistakes. And she replied to me arrogantly and high tone voice, "I can't say it is our mistake or anybody mistake cause there is no proof that you even make the booking, I can't say my staff is wrong." (WTF!!! she still dont want to admit her staff mistakes and being very rude to us, I even show her my email to my friends saying I called them and confirmed the date).
 
I told her, I don't like her tone and I don't like the way she treat us. I said I don't care because it is not my mistake that they do not do their job. To my surprise she said "I dont care either if u had make the booking or not cause your name is not in the list and it's full already I cant do anything for u". ( I really wanna slap her!!)
 
Immediately I asked for her boss number and will complaint about her rudeness. Fuck her.
 
I deal with this thing a lot and if the company make mistakes, they would just shut up and apologize for their mistakes and would recommend a better solution! This supervisor is shit! How could she keep on blaming us for not reconfirmed?? That's her job to call us and reconfirmed again!! Idiot! Obviously she did not do her job!
 
Don't tell me because I bought at discount prices they purposely kicked our booking! If this happened I will not hesitate to report to the tribunal. I emailed and call the manager regarding this, perhaps that supervisor don't think I would complaint about her.
 
I'm still pissed off with that supervisor. I wish their management will take action on her.
I will never promote this spa to anyone.
 
I went to SP Body Wellness Spa before and even though their name is not "Royal", they treat us like a Royal. They call us a day before to reconfirmed, they even call us 10 minutes earlier before the session start just to make sure we are not lost!
 
 
Update 28/12/11:
 
I went to Taman Permata branch early this month and I can say it’s really sucks. Why?
  1. The place is bad, the floor is oily and they did not provide sandals to customers.
  2. Customers privacy is not taken care off, customers in spa can see my bare body at scrub area!!
  3. They don’t scrub my body, just put scrub on me.
  4. Massage is sucks too, I don’t feel like they massage me, I just feel like they just touch and pinch me, with their poor technique, I can massage on my own! Plus they just massage my back, lower back and lower front. NOT FULL body massage.
  5. Facial is awful too, they don’t even clean my white and black heads. Just put something on my face and wash it, and this process is repeated for 3 times and facial is done!
  6. They are not professional. Talking and chit chating with the staff while working. Spend lots of time answer phone and greet customers while massaging and facial session, so they don’t spend 100% time on customers.
  7. Place to put customers bags are not save, no lock.
  8. Place for changing cloths is not suitable as well.
  9. The only thing that is worth is it’s spa.

The rest was awful. I will never go this place ever again. Not worth it.

9 months Sylvia - my Maine Coon mix

6 months has passed and now my Sylvia is 9 months old. She's healthy and still playful. Her weight was up and down all the time. How to maintain her weight? She does eat a lot though. She eats 4 times a day :P

I was hoping she could grow bigger but it seems that her growth kind of stuck when she was 7 months. Probably she had her mother's (persian) genes more than her dad. She has a long body about 157cm from head to butt, and her legs is like a normal cat. Will she still grow?



She's relaxing in my living room with tight face, cause she hates my camera :P

She's sitting in front of my pc, hoping I will give my attention to her or she can play with my monitor when I move around my mouse.

Another tight face... I will try to snap her cute face with big eyes mercy look one day.



Doing her business :P

Check video of her here:

Sickening round 2.

Busy is my best friend lately. Busy with works, busy with friends, busy doing nothing, busy shopping, busy caring my cats, busy preparing for my future, busy with almost everything that I don't have time for my self (finger crossing?).

Busy preparing for my future is what I want to share today. I was called for an interview with 1 of the top company in the world. I was so excited that I was among 3 that was short listed. So I went for the 3 hours interview. The longest interview I ever had and the craziest one. This is the first time I experienced interview with big company and it's totally a new experience for me.

There are 3 round, first was technical questions, second behavioural questions and a study case. The first round was smooth though I could feel that the big boss don't really like me in terms of my technical expertise as he thinks I'm not suitable for that job. He thought that it is not really realistic that I want to work with them when actually they want to become like 'us'. Yeah I have to agree with that but what can I do? My current company management is suck. I need more professional environment now. I'm not wasting my time for a company that do not know how to appreciate it's worker.

Second round about behavourial question. This was a big FAILURE for me!! First of all I never know or study this type of questions. So i'm a bit confused and dumb and don't understand what they trying to get from me. The question was like "let say you make a decision and impact others, tell me about it". In my mind I was like "What? what do u want to know? You want evidence that the decision I made impact others like how bad or good or what?" I'm totally confused and I can't even think of an examples. They throw so many questions about behavourial, I answered and most of my answer is not acceptable! WTF I thought, it's subjectives and why you dont want to accept my answers?

They managed to make me look stupid and that time I'm so pissed off cause my mind is blanked. At that point I thought, this type of questions is nonsense cause people can made up stories as not all experienced such behaviour. I think It's really a stupid way to know people as they can easily lie to them and pretend that they are good. For those who knows this type of questions can made up best answers just to suit the question. As for me, my answers doesn't show the REAL me at all! cause I spend so much time thinking WTH they want if all my answers is rejected. So I thought, that's it I won't get this job... so it makes me out of focus and make me lazy to answer them. End of round 2.

The third round was case study. For me it's quite easy as I think I'm quite good in business thinking and management thinking. They give me 5 minutes to think and they throw me all critical thinking questions and I think I nailed it as it's quite easy. It's just that Im out of focus as my mind was still thinking about the second round interview.

At the end of my interview they said I'm doing very well in round 3, but I think it's already a failure for my "behavioural". That's how they measure it anyway..

So for those who going for interview please do read about behavourial questions and how to tackle it.. I still think it's not the right way to understand people behavourial.. a straight forward questions about someone behavourial and people could just made up story. I think it's better to put a behavourial questions indirectly during the whole interview process, it's easier to see people behavourial this way. I's so unfair for me cause I don't know about it huhuhu..

It's a miracle if I get the job, so... let's wait what it's gonna be.

Here are some good link:

CUN Movie review

I’ve been watching a lot of Malay movies lately. Some director has improved, some are still in their slumber world.

Cun_(2011)_DVDRip_AVI,MKV_&_RMVB_Mediafire

One of the best movie so far this year is a movie by Osman Ali called CUN. Hero of the film was Remy Ishak and the heroin is Maya Karin. Below is the synopsis of the movie:

Luna Latisya is a popular reality TV host for a show called “Meletups” who runs away after finding out that her boyfriend is cheating on her. Feeling heartbroken, Luna and her assistant Tom set off to a rural village in Kedah where she meets Atan, a handsome and kind villager. During her stay in the village, Luna starts to fall in love with the serene and peaceful lifestyle as well as gaining the approval of Atan’s family. However, a complication that happened in the city forces Luna to choose between the village life or return to her fabulous lifestyle back in the city.

I could say this movie is really entertaining, funny, simple, do not make me feel bore, straight to the point, realistic and did show the value of “Kampung life”. It’s really fun actually. It’s very hard for Malaysian movie to produce such film since P.Ramlee.

The line of actors are great, all can act very well including Maya Karin (she’s so stiff normally). Remy Ishak has proved he can be perfect “Hero Kampung”. He really nailed it. I like his character.

This movie use Kedah accent  (loghat Kedah) and all of them can portray it excellently. It’s not so easy though for those who are not native from Kedah to act the accent fluently.

Si Kembang with red cheek

The Kampung life and the family ties in this film is the strongest value that they bring in this movie not to forget the bond between human and the Buffalo (Si Kembang) too hehe. Si Kembang is really a great anim-actor Smile with tongue out.

Overall, this movie is predictable but you will definitely enjoy the funny simple everyday scripts that normal people use (not a schema scripts).hfghdgsdfggds

2 thumbs up. Recommended to watch.

My Rating: 2.5 star
