You can see it coming your way but yet you cant prevent it from happening !

Have you ever see something is coming your way and yet you cant prevent it from happening ?

thats exactly what happened to me today I guess.

As some of you know I work occasionally in Wembley and Emirates stadium as catering assistant. The way they arrange my job is that they will send me a SMS with a code and I am suppose to reply YES + the code if i accept the job offer or simply reply NO if I reject it. They will only send me my CONFIRMATION to work just a day before the event and sometimes I will only get the SMS confirmation around 2030.

This week and next week there will be Take That 'The Beautiful Tour' and Oasis concerts in Wembley so it will be rather busy. So the company in order to encourage the workers like me to work all 7 days during the 2 concerts they will reward anyone who works all 7 days will receive £70 bonus in the end. When I receive this SMS I was rather glad because £70 can pay some of my bills, after a while I get this feeling that is was just some BIG CORPORATE COMPANY SCAM , well all they have to do is don't confirm me for just 1 day during the 7 days and I shall not eligible for the bonus anymore.

Yesterday I waited for my confirmations SMS for today job but I waited till 4 something I decided to give them a call to confirm my confirmation for today but nobody answer even I try calling few times. Thats when I start to have some bad feelings. I waited whole night and no SMS receive. As the sun rises and when office hour starts I gave them a call , after calling a few time someone pick up my call. What i fear most become reality, the guy answer my call said that I am not confirm for today event and asked me not to turn up as they already fully staffed for today. Then he add on saying that I am confirm to work for Saturday and Sunday. Then I ask him about my confirmation for next week, he told me that I am confirm for all 3 days for next week. I was like WTF, u can confirm me to work for the rest of the events but not for today only ? How can this kind of thing happen with such big corporate company ?

Well I guess is what I fear from the beginning, the so call BONUS was just a trick and SCAM from the beginning. I was rather upset and devastated after the call but I tell myself just be upset for 5 minutes, then I went and cook my breakfast , after that I totally let go of it but I will always remember this lesson well learnt. No matter how small or how big you are ,you can be a SCAMMER after all. It was a lost of some materials gains but income in experience wise. I guess i just have to take extra precautions after this. I mean whats the point crying of spill milk right especially I am not into milk.

So today be my off day instead of working day because of something I can see it coming but cant prevent it from happening. It doesnt matter anymore as today could be the greatest day of my life. Is another chapther of my life in UK.

simple changes big differences

ok i am just gonna write a short entry this time, as i accidentally deleted my previous post before i have the chance to post it..hehehe, silly me

well i would like to write about changes here,

how many of you have friends that you havent met or contacted for years or maybe even just for a few months ? then suddenly you bump into him or her and somehow i mean somehow that friend of yours is no longer how u remembered , she/he simply change so much that you simply don't recognize him at all... the changes can be in the form of physically,looks,aura,personailities,attitude or etc...it doesnt matter for good or for bad...

i take some time out to check out on updates on people that i dont really keep in touch with, oh my my it seem that they are so different from what i remembered, it seems like i did miss alot from their life

then you asked yourself how come some people can change so much and somehow i felt that i m still the same, i don't feel any significant changes in me...

well honestly thats exactly what on my mind right now, somehow i felt that i am almost the same since primary school i guess, not much changes in me i guess, i am still who i am i suppose.. have i change ? or i still remain the same ?
somehow i just feel that i need to do more,
to go to the extreme ,
to make real changes,
to set myself free

to keep it simple i would like to change so much that SAW will be WAS

Hakuna Matata

It was great to come across the Lion King cartoon again but nothing beats the original story. Hope most of you who watched it before still remember how it goes. There are alot of nice songs inside the movie and I would like to share with all of you.

hakuna matata n. phrase from hakuna matata "no difficulties": no troubles, problems, worries or cares [<>hakuna "there is no, there are no" < ha- prefix signifying negation + -kuna "there is, there are" + matata plural of tata "tangle, mess, difficulty, perplexity"].
  • Lion King Soundtrack"It means 'no worries for the rest of your days'. It's our problem-free philosophy. Hakuna matata!" lyrics by Tim Rice, "Hakuna Matata", The Lion King: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, 1994.
  • "The name Accoona is derived from the Swahili phrase, Hakuna Matata, which means 'don't worry be happy.'" Accoona Corp., Accoona - About Accoona, Mar. 15, 2006. Although loose, this is a good translation of hakuna matata. Accoona may be derived from the whole phrase, but it sounds like a Cockney or French pronunciation of only the first word. Taken alone, hakuna means "there are none" and is one way of simply answering "no", since there is no single word for "no" in Swahili. This is not a good name for an Internet search engine. Imagine seeing "there are none" on a search result page.












Listening to all this songs really bring back memories and really can lighten up the day. Take some time off and enjoy life my friends.

Russell Pete , Red , White and Brown

I always like comedy and in my opinion Russell Pete is one of the best stand up comedian I come across, maybe I like him is because I can really relate to his jokes, He likes to jokes about Indian , Chinese and African race. Well I was lucky to come across his latest show , and as usual is really up to the standard so I would like to share it with all of you and hope you ppl really like it. ENJOY

a message from a friend

Dear Saw,

I read about your "routine" life in UK. I realised that you have become slightly negative and going against "life". What happen ? Is it because the work over there tires you? Or is it that you have lost your dream? I do wanna hear from you !!

It is at this point of time that you start to appreciate what u have in life and hold on to your dreams. It is this time where life test your patience and how persevere are u in your dreams.. SO what is your dream currently?

Start reading SAW !! i know at this point of time, your motivation is low. I have been thru that before. But think about it, life is not that meaningless.HEY!!! U R IN LONDON OK !!! GET A LIFE !!!

WORK YOUR WAY UP TO THE TOP !! start planning what;s your ambition there. Are u gonna change the job soon ? when is your contract gonna end? What's your next step gonna be.

Life aren't stagnant. It keeps going. AND SO MUST WE ! life here in NUS is as BORING and LIFELESS is i wanna think it that way. 2 students just committed suicide in NTU due to stress and pressure. BUT, there are unlimited opportunity to learn and grow as well.

KEEP learning and keep growing SAW ! i'm looking forward to seeing u at the top. stay positive and climb the ladder of success. ALL THE BEST !


i m deeply touched about this message from a friend of my, so come look whats wrong with Saw ? i was in Manchester having my routine life and I decided to break it and head for London,Oh my how wrong could it be at the moment..Expenses are baldy high and at the moment i just having a part time job that barely cover my expenses.
anyway back to the article , have i lost my dreams ? am i being negative and going against life ? or am i simply exhausted ? honestly i think i simply go back to what Saw used to be in the 1st place, negative,self-centred, selfish,lazy and etc that u can think of...UK doesnt change me thats what I am i guess,just that conditions in UK bring it out again just like Naruto who reveal the nine tails fox when he is being cornered.

Talking about dream, whats my dream again ? maybe is my stupid mistake..I come to uk with 1 dream and 1 dream only thats is to earn enough £££ and go back to Malaysia to prove to that particular girl that Saw can make it in life too, just because my dad doesnt owns chains of shop Saw cant make it in life. Maybe i was dead wrong since the beginning as I realise this girl isnt worth it after all, i guess from there i m lost..Why would i waste my time on such a girl when there are so many nice people and women around me ? Maybe because of attachment,i simply cant let go of the grudge that i hold inisde me, some of u might think i m bullshitting again but it doesnt matter.I know i m telling the truth.

Anyway i think i should do some deepthinking and organise back my life,life isnt a bed of roses but it also definately not a dump of bullshit.

To my this friend I thank you for your concern and I shall and I will be right back on track. TQ you chuan

My lifeless life

It been months since I came over to the United Kingdom, nothing changed about me I guess, still the same old Saw everybody knows and remember. Haha means still the Saw some ppl loves and some ppl hates. I know I promised to update my blog as frequent as possible but looking back the reason i didnt update my blog not because I m lazy it just that I got nothing to blog about in other words I had a boring life here. Every week is almost routine to me and honestly I m not enjoying bit of it even though I m in UK. Here is how my everyday goes just to let u ppl know how routine my life is....

1000 : Wake up and clean myself, might eat some biscuits or breads as light breakfast
1100 : Head to my working place
1115 : Starts working (i eat my breakfast,lunch,dinner along this time i guess )
2230 : Off from work (sometimes might finish later depending on last orders)
2300 : Reach home and clean up
2330 : Watch some movies and online
0100 : Sleeping time

there it goes my schedule for 6 days a week. Now you can see how routine it is,is almost next to no life

well i got a day off in a week but normally on my off day I would just get extra rest, clean my rooms and do my laundry. Hardly go out on my off day except to buy things are simply walk around Manchester.

So basically is not that I don't want to update my blog is just nothing to blog about...hahaha...
I have to admit Saw dont really like to go through this kind of life thats why Saw going to make a change and YES HE CAN

thats all for now..Saw will see you all when he see you

ps. I love Teh See Khoon
