Majlis Berbuka Puasa with Anak2 Yatim: Shell House 17/09/08

This event is a yearly thing for Shell but I am thankful I could make it this year.. bawak Fadel, Haikal & Shasmeen sekali - to appreciate the fact that we still have a full family. Unfortunately for these children, kecik lagi dah takde ibu ayah....

Tapi murah rezeki diorang dapat duit raya RM65 (RM50 dari Shell + RM10 + RM5 - dari hamba2 Allah), beg sekolah ++ from Lubricants + kereta Ferrari dari Retail... and a few things.

Mulanya suruh Fadel bawak camera for own use... tengok2 Kak Rose approached and mintak tolong Fadel jadi official photographer... the usual one tak di jemput apparently.. so inilah hasilnya!


Azzaddin & Hj Ahmad Fakhri - orang kuat yang menjayakan program ini


Antara tetamu2 perempuan & lelaki yang hadir


Persembahan dari An-Najjah & Anak Kesayanganku


Me & kids.... and Datin Betty Saw. Sempat Yasmin & anak berposing!


Bagi duit Raya kat budak2 lelaki & perempuan


Aisyah (CA), Kak Rose (Legal) & Datin Betty Saw


Sumbangan RM5000 untuk setiap rumah anak2 yatim


Imam Masjid Bkt Damansara...

Lepas makan kuih (something light).. semua nya solat maghrib dulu kat dalam theathrette. Lepas tu, semua bergerak ke Shell Cafe untuk juadah berbuka puasa... macam2 ada!!!

At this point, Mimin dah hilang kasut (her "fav" princess shoe).. so bila we all masuk cafe, nampak la this one girl pakai... kesian pulak tengok masa nak mintak... so biarkan la dulu... tapi Meen dah start lari2 berkaki ayam... tak best la kan, takut jatuh ke pulak.... but in the end, masa nak mintak balik kasut pun, rasa sedih & kesian... tengok pulak muka budak tu sedih je.. so finally decided to bagi je la... Sorry Meen!!! Nanti Mama beli yang baru ek?


Anuar (driver): pilih, jangan tak pilih!; Kam & Iwan... sikit je makan?


Tengok tu.. Selera Malaysia!!!


By this time, photographer pun sibuk makan... ada lagi gambar tapi tak berapa banyak. Soru time!!

Masa nak balik... sempay lagi Haikal berposing! By the way, sebelum ni, Haikal sibuk sangat nak gi ofis Mama.. so he's finally here!!!




Alamak.. kalau nak "kuat" pun, takkan sampai minum Shell Helix ek? "Shell Mama punya"... he used to say... "Ameen!!!"...

Dalam keta balik rumah, Mimin merajuk... sebab kasut dia dah takde... Sorry sayang!!

Bottom line: bersyukurlah dengan rezeki NYA... no matter what... He's the MOST GRACIOUS and he knows BEST!

Team Managers Buka Puasa: Le Meridien 12/09/08

All team managers in HR Services were kindly invited by our big boss Kam for a berbuka puasa at Le Meridien on Fri nite 12th Sept. And the Systems, IM, OM teams the next day. We didnt bring our camera so was dependent on Josa & Christine for these... tu yang gambar 13th came up first!

Anyway, we're missing Alice, Shalina & Dhalita - and Rok left quite early with her kids. The rests are here where we managed to get snaps of....

Food was good - but no change to the ones that we have during the Service Excellence training... so my fav remains the same: Teppanyaki....


with Ana & family, Sui Wei & kids, Mr & Mrs CM; Same one without CM


Mimin... boleh tahan jugak lasak dia ni! ; Kam, Aishah, Hj Mads (Hayan & Fakhri) with spouse/ child(ren)


All full & with happy faces.... quiet a crowd that turned up, yeay!


Some of the other family members....................


Ana tak bawak her baby girl.. so tumpang la Meen!


From a different angle.....


Josa berkenan kat Mimin

We left around 9:30 jugak after a hearty meal... yummy! (not that boleh makan banyak sangat masa berbuka!)
Thanks Kam!

HRV Systems, IM, OM Berbuka Puasa: OneWorld - 13/9/08

My birthday - & my IM team

Yesterday 3/9 was my birthday.... yes, I am now 40 years old!!! Oh not really... it's "25 with 15 years experience"...

The best thing is that my team gave me a surprise whereby Nurul gave a LIVE rendition of a HAPPY BIRTHDAY song (and the rests sing, of course) on her violin!!

Of course, not to mention, posters all over my work area...



I was touched by the gestures...


Caryn & Carol


Anna & Najib


The crowd of Caryn, Najib, Carol, Wing Soon, Nurul & Anna


Nurul, having just passed her Level 3 exam, played beautifully on her violin

Over the last 2 weeks of August, I attended 2 trainings - one on Service Excellence for Leaders & the other on Customer Service. They may look similar in title but the contents are TOTALLY different!!!
