Updates...

I haven't been blogging for quite some time. Apart from being busy, I've been self indulged and lazy to write. Well, to start with, my fourth year anniversary just passed weeks ago, on the 4th of June, hubby gave me flowers, a card and a romantic dinner( actually not so..with Adam around) in Uzen Concorde, a Japanese restaurant. The food was exquisite despite Adam screaming and jumping around on the sofa. I managed to put on deaf ears, hahaha. I told you hubby, not to bring him along. Thank God we brought along his favourite item, a D80 Nikon camera, so he was finally tamed by it. I really enjoyed the dinner love, thanks! What coincidentally happened on the same night was the hike on fuel price! Imagine the jam hubby and I had to go through to reach Concorde, KL. Thanks Pak Lah, you just made our anniversary night even more exciting huh. We didn't bother to cue up to fill our tank. We thought how much could we really save for just one night? Well, then, another update is about our relocation. As per now, we are still awaiting confirmation on remuneration package. Hubby has been in negotiation with Satyam Singapore, so we hope everything will work out for the best. Adam Hakeem has his own passport now, and I've also renewed mine. My maid....has not arrived! I've had a row with my agent regarding her delay. And she kept giving me excuses.What ticked me off was when I caught her lying. This one day, where she promised (like after 10 promises) to send my maid, I waited patiently at home, until evening. No calls, nothing. I called her and asked her whether she's sending the maid to me. This time ( yes, it wasn't the first time she gave me lame excuses, like one of her maid got raped, and she was in the police station from morning till nite?gila ke apa?) she said she was in the immigration office, queuing to pick up my maid's passport AT 4.40 p.m?!! I questioned her directly, "I know right now immigration office is closed, so where again are u at?". She was caught off guard because she probably didn't notice it was already after 4 p.m. And started giving me some other lame F&*#&#& excuses. That was it. I lost it! Above everything, I just hate liars and cheats. So, I decided to take the matter further and canceled her service. I demanded for my refund and she said she'd give it back in a week. Well, I really don't want to go on and on about this, because I get really pissed off even thinking bout her. I figured out she was a con. She first told me that she had proper documents for my supposed to be maid, but a week later she said she had to request for a working permit after the maid is being sent. What ever she's doing, I hope that other ppl won't get conned by this woman. If anyone from this agency called APZ ( I wouldn't want to put her full name here) but the initials are on her card, make sure u be careful. My family and I almost lodge a police report after she started to delay and gave more excuses to refund our deposit. But only after we told her we'd lodge a report that she refunded our money. Well, actually, apart from money being the issue, I was more saddened and upset by the fact that a Malay woman had lied and conned me. I don't understand why some people had to lie to make a living? Well, its her lost, not mine. She just lost a customer and more. Anyways, I've learned my lesson. I think next time I should listen more to my intuitions. Well, I shall end my blog here as My Lil Adam Hakeem is already awake...and he needs my full attention..as always. :)
