Mine is a life worth living and if I could turn back the clock, I would play the same scene at the same speed with the same players... regrets? Of course I have some but that adds the colours to this life..

Busy April 2008


April is approaching the end, I almost didn't realise it until this morning when my Head of Department and I are planning a trip to Penang (again). Iguess because it started with a gloomy mood for not receiving our March salary on time. In fact, due to the last minute recalculation of the new salaries involving increment / adjustment / promotion, we only received our March salary on 2nd April and for some on 3rd, with some backdated dues. ALHAMDULILLAH!!
But as for me, I already withdrawn from my back-up fund to ensure that I was not going to be overdue. I hate paying unnecesary late payment charges, interests etc.
