Remaining days @ Starbucks

BurppP..Alhamdulillah. I just had my break fast. Lot of rezeki on the table, and i got back my energy for today. Its a tiring day, sliding, take order, iniate conversation with the customers, pull the espresso shot, steam the milk and exposed with too much noise from the blender. But i really had fun today!

Its almost 16 months ive been working as a part time barista @ Starbucks Taman Universiti #025, and yet i still have another month before i graduated (InsyaAllah) and resign from the store. Today Muizz a.k.a my manager gave out Partner Performance Feedback...overall i managed to score above the par, and most of them are excellent:). However, deep inside my heart i feel a lil' bit sad since its going to be the last Partner Feedback Performance i ever had from Starbucks.

If you ask me what i loved the most about Starbucks, my answer will be the team that we had in the store, passion towards coffee, and the experience to be in Starbucks Coffee Company. The company is awesome! all the business strategies and plan realy inspire me and give me the thoughts how genius is the jew (since the founder is a jew), which indirectly make me realize that there are something positive we should learn from them.Espeacially in managing business!. Nevertheless, the most precious thing about working in Starbucks is about the coffee itself. I never believe myself that i will go this far about coffee in my whole life. Tons to tell when i start to bebel about coffee:) maybe in some other day ait...and soon i will write more Starbucks ok.

Are U in MooD for Syawal?

Salam

Its already 28th Ramadhan, which means Syawal is just around the corner, predicted on this Saturday.At the age of 23, Syawal is not the same as it was when i were 10 or 11 years old. It is just different and I prefer to see it from the positive point of view.

Somehow at this age i realized how important is Syawal, and how does it impact my feelings towards my family. Especially my mak, sisters and brothers. Which i never care during my childhood's Syawal celebration.(Because i concentrate more on collecting for Duit Raya from house to house). It is the feelings of pure love, sense of belonging, and the feeling of the true blood that i have in my vein. Simply it is the feeling on sacrificing at each other tho it is my life as the stake, and of course the feeling that this thing will never come to an end.

I cant wait to step on the soil of my hometown, and breath the fresh air of the sea. I cant wait to see the smiles on my mak's face waiting for..and of corse to have her cook till im full.:)

And not to forget to all of you, espeacially my syg..i long to wait celebrating raya with u each year til the day i die:) Hepi Eid Mubarak to all and may god bless u all.

Dengar cerita

Salam

Dengar cerita Tol akan naik lagi.
Keluar sendiri dari mulut Datuk Sami.

a.Projek Lebuhraya Utara Selatan (Plus),
b.Lebuhraya Bertingkat Ampang-Kuala Lumpur,
c.North South Expressway Central Link (Elite),
d.Lebuhraya Seremban-Port Dickson,
e.New North Klang Straits Bypass (Shahpadu),
f.Link Kedua Malaysia-Singapura,
g.Butterworth-Kulim Expressway
h.Jambatan Pulau Pinang.

Harga tol dijangka naik 10% menjelang Januari 2008 bagi semua harga tol di atas. Pada hemat penulis, acapkali harga tol dinaikkan sehingga menimbulkan rasa tidak puas hati pada banyak pihak. Bukan itu sahaja, dengar cerita juga harga minyak pun dijangka naik lagi. Bagi Gred RON97, harga dijangka naik sehingga RM2 seliter berbanding dengan harga sekarang RM1.92. Susah lah macam ni, kadang-kadang terfikir juga di benak penulis untuk "convert" kereta menggunakan NGV, lebih menjimatkan!

Al-Fatihah

I just got back from Tampin..or more detail lagi from Inas Johol..u guys know where izit? Princess dint know the place..thats y i told her dont ever dream about living in UK coz she dont even know where Johol is:)

I went there after sahur this morning from Skudai and reach there around 9 a.m. Pergi pun bukan saja2 makan angin atau melihat negeri orang, tapi dengan niat menziarah abang ipar aku punya ibu yang baru sahaja meninggal dunia. Innalillahi wainna ilaihi raji`un.Allahyarhamah ku panggil dengan gelaran ibu. Beliau seorang muslimah yang baik, tak pernah sekali pun aku dengar beliau mengata pasal orang, dan berani aku katakan susah nak jumpa manusia yang tak bercakap pasal orang lain, atau dalam erti kata lain "mengumpat".

Jadi atas kesempatan ini aku mohon kepada umat Muhammad yang melawat Blog aku ni, sedekah kan lah Al-Fatihah kepada Allahyarhamah Hajah Esah, moga beliau ditempatkan di kalangan orang yang beramal soleh dan banyak mendapat syafaat Rasulullah s.a.w.

Cukuplah ni, masa tak mengizinkan, aku masih ada urusan dengan tuhan yang belum diselesaikan dan ingin bersedia untuk mengahadapi usrusan dunia esok harinya. salam
