The Saturday Nite Fever (SNF) have been a catchy phrase since John Travolta dance in the movie with the same name. I’m not quite sure what does the ‘fever‘ refers to. Dictionary defines it as:
1. Abnormally high body temperature.
2. Any of various diseases characterized by abnormally high body temperature.
3. A condition of heightened activity or excitement: a fever of anticipation.
4. A contagious, usually short-lived enthusiasm or craze: disco fever.
So, Saturday Nite Fever could be a situation where you have an abnormally high body temperature (in some occassion due to diseases) a.k.a you are sick and need a night off. Or it could be the opposite, it might be an exciting activity that you are addicted to every Saturday Nite (clubbing, cinema’ing, tupperware partying etc..) The word fever seems to have two completely opposite meaning, how interesting…
It is saturday nite..yet neither symptom of any nausea nor sudden changes of my body temperature. Heightened activity? Let me think…Clubbing? Not an option…Cinema? An option yet it is already midnite..no more show. Tupperwaring? Not fond of any MLM’s kind. Blogging? Maybe.
Tonite is another saturday nite without a fever…unless there are John-Travolta-shake-his-bon-bon movie on TV!

Hari Bertemu Pelanggan
Hari Bertemu Pelanggan (HBP) is a popular term in the Civil Services nowadays…it is one of the criteria used as a benchmark for Q of services. Many Governmnet Offices had gazetted certain days or date for their HBP. Quality eh? I wonder…
Today is my HBP day..the whole day is dedicated to my beloved customers (my former CEO did mention them as our customers - without them we are nothing!). But my HBP is quite different. It stands for my weekly High Blood Pressure. I think I need to make sure my life insurance covers HBP. Insurance? I really hate that Mr Slimer aka the unwelcome insurance guy that keep on nagging me to pay extra RM 100. Even thinking of him can give me a headache…frowning about him had definitely increased fine lines on my face. I blame you Mr Slimer for this premature aging face!! errr..do the insurance cover for any cosmetic surgery? :-)
Payday is just around the corner…again, I’ll be richer for one day or two, then live below poverty rate for rest of the month..Yet, watching the Bersamamu Reality TV always reminds me of the less fortunate people out there. Sob..sob..sob…
Then I realized that I am lucky to have this job (which I always whinning about) eventhough it always led to my HBP .

Blame The Mamak!!
I Hate Monday!
No..not because Mr. Isnin once spare me couple hours of a pretty ‘zzzzzz’ing lecture on teaching gadget, not because Garfield hate Monday..and of course not because I have mee goreng mamak for brunch. I just hate it because it kills the the pleasure of no-rush-to-office-and-work-till-you-drop which I enjoyed during the 48 hours weekend.
So, what did I do since morning? Hmm…let me see. Punch-in (red seems goes well with that yellow card). Show my pretty face (with a soo… prentious smile) when I catwalk into the office. Short chit chat with amoi, then back to my seldom used No 13 room to avoid the so called burden-to-be person (no real name involved for privacy purposes). Read one article which I’ve been carrying around for the past few days - I finally managed to summarise the gist in half an hour. A time like this without others stealing your bandwith of time is really precious.
I went out early for brunch, purposely to bring Nemokeneter to clinic. Pity Old Nemo, no happy face could be seen for this few months. Maybe it is because of the another young and handsome rival…the spect…fuh!! Very sexy and full with surprises! Any sane man could not ask for more…especially when you get it for free. However after RM 200 poorer due to the clinic charges, old Nemo now is as good as new. By the way, Old Nemo commercial name is Nokia 9210i Communicator ( Bear in mind, Nemo is not mine…it belongs to my other half)
Back in the office, I realized that not much to do either. Work scheduled for tomorrow also already taken care of. Oh, am I that efficient? I am not happy with the cluster on my desk- try to sort it out but I afraid that after implementing 5S to this desk I ‘ll have problem to search for any document later on. It happened to me before. Serious!! it took me hours to find it in the organised way.
The Halo Effect of others seing my desk for the first time is that I am not an organised person. This is my system of organising - the clustering way. Mind you, if my desk is neat and very organised it shows that I do nothing. Yellek! Why should I cluster all those papers, books, pen and whatever on my desk if there’s nothing to do? My motto : Cluster is Work. No Cluster, No Work. (Precaution: Dont follow this at your Offfice or Home. The risk is unbearable)
It’s 10 minutes to 6.00 pm. Being the honest type of person (he he), I stayback in the office to sort other tasks for this week plus to show to my boss that the red stamp on the yellow card always followed with an extended office hours. As daylight is slowly fading (welcome night..I miss you), I still hate today. First it is Monday, and second, the diarrhoea after brunch still continues. What a secondhand bowel of mine! And yes…now I am blaming the mamak for such a ‘wonderful gift’ he gave me for today!
