Life Updates aka membebel

Because I do not have any job to do at the office, I want to post something on this blog today.

I have a few things to talk and share about. Let’s have a go at them one by one

1.       Jalilmas House

I just can’t wait for the construction of the house to be completed. I will be able to save a lot of money as I do not need to rent here in KL.

I am very excited now because my brother’s house Puchongmas had just been completed and the tenants can already collect their keys, provided there is no outstanding payment (late payment charges) pending to be cleared.

My bro said they had to pay rm1000 for the late charges. I do not know the details.

Maybe its similar to my case during cube60 back in 2015, we were charged RM3k++ but after arguments and whatnot, we only had to pay RM60+

The delay was because of CNY and issues with the notification and letters postage yadayada..

Anyhow, as soon as they got the keys to their house, I want to go visit and go swimming there.. huhu..

Eventhough that my house Jalilmas does not have any pool, I am still very excited to be living in my own home.

Yes I have a house already, but having a house in KL feels different from having a house in JB.. hehe..

My wife is excited as she wants to decorate the house with wainscoting panels and other things. I plan to go visit Ikea and draw some inspiration on house decorations when its time to do that.

For now we just gotta hold on and save money for the renovation process soon.

2.       Repair Cube60 House

Last weekend I went to our house at Pulai with my Father In Law to go fix the curtain railing which had fallen off. This was the 3^rd time it was fixed.

The first 2 times the railing fell off, maybe because there was not enough bracket holding the heavy curtain.. also because the wall plugs installed were not long/deep enough to hold the rail/curtain.

So we went to install longer wall plugs the other and hopefully this time around it will stay intact.

We also bought additional brackets to install on the railings but we had bought the wrong type, hence we were unable to install them.

At first I wanted to drill new holes and I did try but for some reasons the new holes just could not be drilled deep enough for the long wallplugs.

My father in law said its ok to use the existing holes and he put in additional screws on the side of the holes to hold the bracket from falling.

From the looks of it, it seemed okay but we can only wish for so much.. so far, no complains..

I was told by our tenant that there was a crack at the gate hinge and that will require some welding and re-painting of the gate.

My FIL also had a look and he said that he has a friend who can do the welding.. I suppose they will do the repair tomorrow. I hope that it will go smoothly.. huhu..

Last but not least, there is an issue with the switchboard, I suspect there is a short-circuit at the output of one of the breakers on Level 1. Syah (my tenant) said when the breaker is turned on, the entire switchboard of Level 1 will trip.

This suggests there is a shortcircuit but I am not sure how to confirm.

My FIL said he will bring an electrician to go check.. again, I hope it will be fine..

3.       Maxis Home Fiber

Last weekend Jup told me that the internet connection at gelang patah, the house I used to rent together with Jufri, had been suspended.

So apparently the account had an overdue payment of 4 months, hence the suspension.

I was never informed.

I just knew when Jup told me.

So I went to Maxis center danga bay to clear the payment (RM645.45), which I paid using credit card.

I wanted to terminate but being a nice person (perasan) I knew that that would bring inconvenience to Jup who is still living there w Shahrol.

If I had terminated the account, they would have to apply for re-connection and that would take 1-2 weeks time, and also would be subject to port availability.

So instead, I chose to help them and asked for the transfer of ownership of the account.

But alas, Jup needs to be present for the transfer to happen.

The next day, we went to maxis center paradigm mall and applied for the transfer of ownership.

I called Maxis just now, the transfer had already been completed. As of now, there is only 1 account of maxis home fiber under my name, for the house at Sri Damansara which I also plan to terminate.

Actually I did ask to terminate that account as well when I was at paradigm mall on the same day, but the person said I couldn’t because they were in the process of downgrading my account from 30mbs to 10mbs.

The day before I had called maxis and asked if I could terminate due to the connectivity issues at SD that is inconsistent. They said I could downgrade to 10mbs and instead of paying rm189/month for the 30mbs, the fees for 10mbs is only rm119.. and I said ok.. why did I??

That’s why the process was still on the way and I couldn’t terminate the darn account.

And for terminating the account before the contract ends, I will be penalized rm500,

but I think its probably for the best, considering that I rarely use the internet at my house.

I am already using umobile unlimited data plan, having a home fiber connection feels redundant and I get to save rm119/month and I think that’s better.

4.       My FIL loan me Rm2000

I was speechless when he suddenly gave me the money.

Earlier I said I wanted to go to post office to withdraw my asb money, which I wanted to use to pay for the maxis penalty rm500 and credit card.

Maybe he didn’t want me to have to go to aeon bukit indah (about 30 mins drive from Skudai) just to withdraw the money, he went to an ATM machine while we were on our way to paradigm mall from my house at Pulai (he was driving), withdrew the money and gave it to me.

I was terkejut beruk!!

I still haven’t paid him yet.. I have not got the chance to go to the bank to take out my asb money yet, but I will.. He also said its ok, no rushing to pay him back.. lolz.. anak menantu mengambil kesempatan..

I was surprised but I could not possibly refused him when he handed me the money.. and as I was really shocked I just accepted the money then..

bila la nak pegi bank ni huhu... maybe lunch hour esok la..

5.       I have many errands to run

I feel like I want to take a day off just to settle some issues and run some errands.

Go to the bank and deposit my coins

Go to the bank and withdraw my asb money

Go to the workshop and repair my motorbike (its been 2 months cannot start, I suspect the carburetor problem)

Go to service my car and fixed the alignment

Go wash my car

Go buy stationaries for class – Gunting, ubat pensel tekan, pemadam, correction tape

6.       I want to buy a new motorcycle

Previously the bike that I bought 2^nd hand from Azwi never gave me any headache. It was working well but since the cannot start problem had recurred 3 times, I feel so frustrated.

So right now I want to sell that bike (honda wave WQR) and buy a new bike..

Should I wait until April though?

Now I only have 1 month pay slip (Feb 2018) and I am not sure if I would be eligible to apply for loans..

But I suppose for small motorbike I can get a loan from the shop itself and not from the bank..

But before I can buy a new bike, I need to repair my bike first.. last time it cost rm30 to fix the cannot start problem.. I wonder how much it will be now..

Maybe tomorrow I will take MC leave and go fix my motorbike and settle my errands as well.

7.       Project at Port Klang

So from after CNY until last week Friday I had to report to site at Port Klang, which is 1 hour drive from my house at Sri Damansara, but could be up to 2 hours if the traffic was bad.

The project had been completed and there was no major issues.

But of course la my boss Mr Teo had a few things to comments this and that..

At first I was a bit sad and upset with him commenting and him pushing.. then I simply didn’t give a phuck..

Lantak la kau, asalkan kerja siap.. lolz..

I didn’t even pay attention to him rambling but I suppose the next time around I will do a better job and hopefully there will be less issues..

I still don’t know which site I will have to go next.. maybe to Kuantan, maybe to Terengganu.. I asked Mr Teo and he said he will advise later.. for now I will just stay at the office melagha doing nothing.. lolz.

So I guess that is all for now.. till next time.. later~~

Death thoughts

20180322

weirdly, recently i think about death quite often.

my wife told me she had a dream that i had died from an accident. she was davastated.

we spoke not so long ago about the fear of death, i told her that i no longer have that fear.

Death is certain and its just the matter of how and when.

having said this,

doesnt mean that i wish to die soon.

if possible i wud want to see my kid(s) grow up.

i love them w everything i have.

i am just saying that i am not afraid to die.

if i am not meant to live to old age,

i accept that.

i dont have any regrets.

for all i know,

i have had a wonderful life.

i think i have been a good person for all my life.

abide by the rules.

i have been blessed w many gifts and opportunities.

i have had a fair share of fun, joy and tears and i am grateful for all of them.

i pray that on the day that i leave this world, i will go in a good proper way,

i will be able to say the syahadah,

and i will die in iman and islam.

above all, that is the most important.
