I've been took by my friend for a " Day trip " to KL ... we started our journey at around 2.30pm ... reach there around 4 or 5 plus... can't remember ... at first i was wondering why my friend " Joyce " have a sudden to go KL .... after realized that ... she wants to go KL because she want to pass something for her BF ... besides ... we also chat quite a lot of stuffs while we're in the journey back .... although we didn't buy anything from this trip ... just have some window shopping. but with this trip ... I'm finally get to know more about my friend Joyce ... she shared a lot of her life experience, tears while telling the story, I found that she's really tough, kind of " SUPER WOMAN " for me, i respect every decision she made...neway ... happy that I've her as my friend .... support her and wish that she could has a wonderful life coming in the future, nice trip =)

12th June - After i wake up from my dreamland .... finally got the mood to write my Resume for MAS, although i didn't completed the resume yet ... due to some of the information still don't know how to fill up ... like date of Graduation =s " have no idea when " !!! while writing my resume i got serious flu for the whole afternoon but thx god after i ate 2 oranges then i get better, also ... after finish up my resume... i was received a call from my Manager which she told me that I'm late to work !! .... cause i remember the wrong schedule, but Manager didn't scolded me, yet asked me why ?? I told her that because i memorize the wrong time for clock in... it was 20 min late when i reach there, i felt sorry to her, but she didn't angry on me still she shared some of her experience on how to over take this, corrected me, she's really a good manager i can said =), also she's good on observing everything haha... good or bad nothing can hide beyond her eyes view!! i still remember there's one day i do closing, there's just a tiny little " Dirt " she also can observe that !!! but of coures she's not only observe on something bad, like today she know that i caught cold or not feeling well before i telling her anything, yet asked other partner to warm up the air-con ... then asked me why i looks blur for today, then i told her that i got flue this noon ... then she asked me to go home and rest early =), really appreciate it I've got such a manager ... thankful =)

I'm not sure what kind of fish they eat actually =s though my father and his friend really enjoyed the porridge by dipping the raw fish meat eat together with the porridge... for me is damn disgusting -_- ! cause i can see the fish's meat fresh blood was streaming out ! i was like OMG !? can this thing be EATEN ? some more the " Fishy + bloody smell "...just forget about it -__- lucky they serve the normal fish porridge there.... so i just take the normal fish porridge that's it =s ...


After the breakfast in Kampar then we went back to Ipoh again... after that father took them to visit a Guan Ying cave near around Gunung Rapat .... there's nothing special for me ... cause this is not the first time I'm being there ... but i take out my patience to accompany them for a walk there.... treated myself as like the first visit here -___- ....

Diary of May...

It's been so fast that now had gone through to the Mid year of 2009, also...i have been working in Starbucks for 2 month ago now XD ... as the mistake i make for now cannot consider as a " NEW PARTNER MISTAKE " anymore .... so no excuse for me hehe... but so far i work there really happy =) , I've got a bunch of great partners which like a big family there .... enjoy very much for every single moment being there ... I've even make quite a number of friends here which they were the regular customer for our store, used to visit our store quite often. Once again ... Thanks Starbucks Ipoh has gave me such a wonderful place to work for ... and wonderful experiences I have got in my life =) Love all my Partners =)

What had happened for May was aa.... quite Happy and also " Bankrupt " !! had some Birthday Celebration with 3 of my friends ... Darren , Bou and Theng .... the pity of myself shared the present with all my friends ... but cannot get back the exact amount =s .... also my Laptop adaptor been broken... get another new 1 which cost me
100 bucks ++ .... a new Japanese Conversation Class had just Started which cost me another 100 bucks ++ sigh .... really bankrupt this month hoho ...

So, forget about all those financial stuffs... there's also something interesting in this month... It wont be all the while in unhappy and sad isn't it ? =)... Look at the Picture below

that's a Boeing 747 Model !! yea XD ... this thing been made me really really jumping in the heaven haha .... actually it's an really old thing, since last time my parents and me went for trip they got this on the flight ... actually it has 2 of this flight model ... but another 1 maybe i have broke it when i was young @_@ ... cause i still can remember that last time i got one, but i never appreciate it when i was a KID !!! treat it like a toy =s ... and has no idea where i thrown it XD ... lucky there's still 1 Boeing 747 model !! i love 747 very much ... that's why I'm happy with this model !!

Model done in the date of 29th May 09

Photo that i captured in Sunway Lost World Of Tambun


Besides, still I've got a 1 day trip in Sunway Lost World of Tambun ... although there's a place which is kind of boring for Ipoh fella.... but ... whenever u go this place with a bunch of peoples .... put fully of yourself in this place ... it might be a different story. I went there with a few of my friends, yet got discount !! cause i follow the group of a design college " ERA Technology " got student discount ! so just paid 15 bucks i can got in and play for whole day .... really enjoy the place ... Hot Sun, crowded peoples, get to know another bunch of friends in this trip .... but didn't really take any photos there ... too bad...

The Only Group Photo in sunway finally upload now haha ... hopefully it's not too late =) ... but don't think there's people will notice that ;D




In 2nd of June - Attended myself for the first meeting in Starbucks ... that's the first time i attend the meeting ... so I've no idea how it works, I did asked Siti what should i wear for this meeting ... at first i thought its a Formal kind of meeting ... so must wear uniform for the meeting ... but It's not ... i chooses myself a casual wear to attend the meeting. I forgot to bring a notebook which its compulsory to bring some paper or so to copy down something we discuss there because of the meeting, our Manager Carene might ask some question about it !! ... so must pay attention while meeting haha ... It's consider a half formal kind of meeting, we seated down in Starbucks and discussed about some New coming promotion or cleaning task, and also some new Recipe for the drinks ... Before the meeting ... we did have some time to do " Coffee Tasting " yea !! that's the benefit to be a Barista !! can taste out all the coffee in Starbucks ... for this day we tried coffee " Verona " Firhad was the one who conducted for this coffee and this coffee will be selling for this month ... so after we all tried out ... have to take note for this coffee ... so when customer ask for it ... we could explain to them how the taste of this coffee is ...

that's how coffee tasting conducted ... prepare coffee in the coffee press and serve... after tasting out the coffee the Cups was given to every partners !! so next time whenever there is coffee tasting... we will use back our own cup with our name on the cup =D



Coffee of the month.... every month for every barista will get 1 pack of whole bean Coffee !! that's 2 of it so far i got it from store =D ... but don't really know how to explain and taste out the coffee yet haha .... have to take time =) doing my Coffee Passport right now... learning =)





Has Been Typing so much here haha .... to be continue next time...
ENJOY LIFE , ENJOY DREAM , ACHIEVE DREAM , MAKE IT DREAM COME TRUE ....

Life + Starbucks =)

It's 6.30am now.... cant fall to sleep after i awake from my dreamland =s ... so then finally make up my mind to write up my blog XD ... cause its been almost 1 month ++ never update my blog and plus didn't visit some of my fav blogger's blog...

So what I'm doing for the whole month lately ? XD ... i couldn't write out all here ... cause that's a lot for me to put here XD if i really do so @_@ this entry might full of WORDS again XD ....

It's been 1 month ++ I've working in Starbucks, yet that's also one of the reason why i didn't post up my blog as well ... after I've work... I'm become slothful =s ... not only didn't update my blog but also didn't go work out in Gym lately =s i paid for the Gym Fees but attended myself just 4 days for the whole month XD ... totally wasted =( .... still in thinking whether i should continue or not though ... because of working schedule, so I have to sacrifice my time for it, sometimes friend who ask me out for tea at night as well, therefore... not much time left for me to do my stuff~ sigh ... Nevertheless .... i still love my job very well =)

There's so many peoples ask me about my job, whether is a good place to work / fun or not .... the answer / feedback from me would be definitely a big " YES " XD ... i enjoy very much on working in Starbucks ... yet i love all my partners/Manager/Shift Supervisor =) i get to learn a lot of things from here ... a lot peoples thought that a Barista is a job which nothing different with a waiter job ?? ... but well ... the answer would be totally wrong if u think like this XD ... Barista is a Multi-tasking job, which not just serve peoples with drinks, yet we also take the roll to communicate with our Customer, get the opportunity to learn / taste the World Best Coffee Bean / Coffee Knowledge, and might as well can learn the so call " Legendary Service " from Starbucks. Of course there's much more I've learnt other than the above I've mentioned =) ... That's why i always felt Lucky to be one of the member in Starbucks =)

So What happen for this month was aaa ... yea of course for a newbie ... must have a lot of " MISTAKE " 1 lor XD ... last time I've mentioned that i burn a croissant... but now ... not just a croissant anymore hahaha... Some common mistake from me " wrong drinks " , " wrong ingredient for the drinks " , " key in the wrong items for the Counter Machine " POS " , " Wrong call up drinks "..... those are the common mistake i always did, but of course now ... getting better =) trouble is getting less ... but still sometimes there's still a possibility I'll do something wrong again ? who knows ? haha... but yea human being is like that ... learn from the mistake =) also ... have to say Thanks again for Starbucks ... cause Starbucks culture ... they will not scold / blame their partners =) that's one of the Pros to work in Starbucks as well XD cause u can get to learn things without Stress like others Restaurant does ... Manager scold their staff in front of Customers... this will never happen in Starbucks for sure =) That's why you can really enjoy working in Starbucks.

Lastly, since so many peoples asked me about " Where's my uniform " Pict ... so I'm gonna post up here =) ... Thx " Jill " ex-partner who work in Starbucks before took the photo for me =)... glad to meet you & "Asrul" the supervisor in taiping branch XD ...

First Day as a Barista and Training Programe in Cameron...

It's been so many days i didn't put upload my blog !!! know what? cause my training date had been suddenly changed to 14th of April, so without spending much of the time, in the next day after I've done my first closing and i leave Ipoh on the next day. I didn't brought my laptop for the training, so i couldn't update my blog in Cameron sadly... But well, after I've finish up the Starbucks training, I get to learnt a lot of things and get to know a lot of Partners.

I still remember for the first day i being in Ipoh Starbucks, i was late @_@ !! cause i never expected that IPOH had Jamming in the morning -__- due to everyone were going to work as well... actually not late but just i reach there on time... the exactly time. Being a barista especially the one to do Opening cannot be reach on time or late ... but the first day i reach there on 8.30am... which the Shift Manager there " Shazry " told me that i reach there on time ... and asked me not to do it again. After that, i get to know " Sook Kuan " according to the information from other partners She's the most senior barista in ipoh branch Starbucks, also she's an Ex-Supervisor here, i was lucky because she's the first partner who thaught me everything about Opening. There's quite a lot of thing I have to remember for opening, from the Bar station to outside of the shop till the BOH " Back of house " a place where we put foods and stocks, all of it is actually have to done by 1 Opening Parter only him/herself...

After set up everything for Opening, then started my work... due to I'm the new partner there and this my first job... so i didn't know anything about Customer Service or the F & B, so I've to learn all these thing from today. I've to memorize the Foods' name in the Pastry Case and also the drinks' name on the menu Board. For the first day i worked at here.. i gave myself 80% out of 100% .... why 80%? haha... cause the first day I've made some mistake, i reach the store not in a proper time and i burn a " Croissant " !! haha....well it just the wrong step i heat up the croissant, so i burn the croissant into a Dark Ash, LOL.... but lucky that i didn't get scold from either sook kuan or Shazry ... but they helped to figure out my problem and teach me again, which i felt they are friendly and willing to teach me ...

So that was my first day experience in Starbucks, after that i get to know all the partners in Ipoh Strabucks, " Carene - my store manager , Siti - the second person who do opening with me, Suba - a funny indian girl, Firhad - Malay + Chinese Mix, Khevin - The one who always do Clossing, Thilaga - The second Shift Supervisor, GOH - one who taught me for clossing and Nomi - she is Siti's cousin ". Total of 10 partnes in Ipoh which i get to know them on last week.


On Sunday, I received a call from Thila, she told me that my Training have changed to 14th !! which means the next 2 days I've to go for training in Cameron, so i was busy for preparing on going there.... and 14th ~ 17th i were having my training on Cameron branch. Within 2 days of training over there, i get to know another gang of partners =D ... Kurma, Terranec, Ken, Rozen, Nick, Fara, Izwan, Boey and Sarika !! all of them were so so friendly to me, and happy to know all of them and a great experience in Cameron Branch =) although it just shortly of 2 days in Cameron but I'm real happy XD, Ken and Rozen were the 2 new Barista who had the class training together with me, we spent most of the time together in the class XD ... Kumar the Coffee Master, the one who gave lecture in the class, although i didn't saw his Black Apron, but he seems really pro on making coffee and he know a lot about coffee.

we used 2 days in Cameron Training, from 10am ~ 6pm the class, to complete 4 chapters below.

3th of March

- went to Starbucks and Indulgence to looked for vancancy .

So the first place i went was Indulgence, a cafe which in a banglow, there's a rumor about this cafe too, they said this is " The Most Expansive Cafe In Ipoh ", but it doesn't really influence me for working here... still i think i can gain alot of experince here other than the others cafe restaurant. when i reached there it was around 10am in the morning, i saw a lemon yellow " Porsche " was parking there, but something im curious that there's no other car was around, i wondering was it they closed today? afer that i saw a lady out there near the etrance, for that moment i guessed she must be a staff there, so i walked nearer to the lady with a short hair and a wound scar on her chin, she shout far away from me, yelling that " Today were closed ", but i insisted myself walked infront of her greeted her with a sweet smiling, and asked her " Is there any vancancies here??" then she thought for a while and said " Yes " but our manager is not around for today maybe i can give you the form first and you fill up that and bring it tomorrow, for the moment i'm glad to heard that XD, so then i followed her and got into the cafe, the place was warm and silent with nobody else, i looked around there, it was such a gorgeous place, with a home design cafe, to be honest, i never visited to this place before, because i ever of heard of the expansive food and drinks here. After that, she gave me a piece of Application form and asked me to fill up with it and brought it for the next day, so after that... i'm leaving.


Then pass by perade, so thought of went to Starbucks asked for vacancy, so afer i parked my car, i went inside Starbucks, i saw 2 girls were there, then i asked for vacancy from them, after that an indian girl told me that our supervisor / manager was not around .... so then she passed me a paper of application to filled up with it =) ... after filled up ... she asked me something bout whether i can work on any shift or not and previous job and so, after answering her .... so then been ended up with it =). went home after and spend my day outside in infinity play a game with my friend kenny - " Left 4 dead ".


Overall for today... i thought i might be panic or something, but i didnt =) so gave myself 99/100 marks XD ....

4th of March

- Eearly in the morning .... went to indulgence again for the interview, same thing which was the lemon yellow "Porsche" was park outside on the same slot as yesterday.... i reached there at 9 oclock..... i met the lady again with short hair and scar on chin.... after that i asked her for the interview and manager, then she went into the kitchen and called the manager out for interview .... on that moment .... i was siting on the sofa in the cafe .... with a comfortable and warm feeling, looking around.... after few min sitting there, i saw the manager coming out from the kitchen .... a little stout and chubby face for the manager, so i greeted her morning and started out the interview ... she asked me about those common interview question, after that she explained to me about the salary and working hours there and telling me that this cafe business only for 4 days in a week, which means they were off during Sunday, Mon and Tues. So then she also asked bout my handphone number once again and some small talked with her, from here "felt that they will hired me" XD, still she said, will called me once they were ready. After that, i leave Indulgence =)









Then spent my afternoon time gaming with kenny again =D then night time went to watched movie " The Legend Of Chun Li " =s well that was not really a good movie for me.... not recommended anyone of you to watch it.... i was force to watch this movie, because my friend "Dann" already bought the ticket for this movie =s and before that was wondering why he bought this ticket ... i asked him .... know what he said ? reason was because the actress who role in Chun Li was " PRETTY " -____-" well ... though she's pretty but, overall i dont really know this movie was actullay an action movie or what =s totally a mess and lousy =( ... after that ends up with yum cha with them and went home.


*Actually today been hesitated which cafe i should choose if both are going to hire me =s .... for today, im still prefer the feeling on Indulgenc, mayb because of the enviroment there..... but still thinking bout it.

5th of March

- a promise to my grandpa, i hv to sent him to JPN for renewal of his Driving License .... well u never can guess that how old my grandpa ?? his actually 80 this year XD .... but still he can drive XD is that amazing ? XD yea quite so ...im proud though his very healthy till this age =) still can cycling to pasar malam haha .... well woke up early in the morning too and brought him to JPN, while on the way to JPN ~~ i received an unknown called .... so i answered the phone, and guessed what ? it was from Starbucks ..... they called me because they would like to have second interview with me @@ .... this time the interview will faced on to another person maybe the supervisor or manager i guessed ... he told me that want to meet me this morning, but unfortunately i'm busy cause i've task on my grandpa... so i will visit them tomorrow, so then after i hang up the phone .... continue driving my grandpa to JPN.

6th of March (Today)

- woke up early in the morning again for the Starbucks interview, before i went to the interview, i checked on the internet about starbucks, cause i dont know what i am actually applied that day =s i thought that was not in vacancy though =s but yesterday been asked for second interview ? i was curious .... so then i did some research on Starbucks this morning before i went to the interview, so...from what i checked out on the internet was @_@ .... i found out that they were now in vacancies for " Barista " i wondering what is barista ... though in the application form .... i applied as a waiter / cashier passed few days ago, on that time was thinking what job im actullay applied for ? the place has no waiter, is all on self-service, only there's people on the counter for payment, that's why i wrote cashier too =s ..... untill this morning i only found out that .... the job in starbucks they not called " waiter / cashier " but a " Barista " known as a Coffee Maker @_@ so then i only realize that i was actually applpying for the job of " Barista " kind of unbelievable !!!......

So after i knew that im going to take this job as a " Barista " i was actually so damn excited with it XD .... when i reached Perade Starbucks ... i saw a malay guy who smoked outside the staircase... with uniform of Starbucks... i was wondering is that the staffs there? nevertheless, after i've parked my car.... i walked inside Starbucks and i saw another malay guy which looks familiar to me, and suddenly reminded me his my schoolmate of mine during secondary, guessed he counldn't remember me. He greeted me a warm welcome, then i told him that i came for interview ..... after that ... he called the guy outside the staircase " sha... sha .... " name of the guy, then the guy outside coming in and he asked me to sit down and wait... then he asked me whether i need a coffee or not... but i said i dont need that .... but still he gave me a cup of coffee and he told me that... interview might going long @@ i was wondering " WHAT " ? long ? how long it should be ? that time i was still blur wondering interview which took long period of time?? so then i just forget about it .... i drank my coffee there and enjoy myself as like a guess sitting there XD .... after while, a guy came out from the kithen, that guy was just now that one who smoke outside the staircase @@ oh my.... his the store master / supervisor there... and his going to interview me today @@.... so he said he will gonna asked me a few question ~~ i thought only a FEW !? but know that was more than 30 questions =_=" ... been gone through the whole interview for approximately for 1 hour !!! not just the question but everything -___- welll to be honest... this was my first ever interview as well =s .... never thought of taking so long though ... no wonder they gave me a cup of coffee =s ... actually its more like a conversation than an interview for what i felt , but well ... everything is going fine .... and i did answered them very well with a good performance today XD so i gave myself 90/100 marks =s .... 10 marks cause of didnt prepare and i miss out something .... =s .... overall it went through pretty well =D and im quite satisfy with it.... i guessed either the same to Shaki =) the store master =) .... well he did told me that .... to work as a barista here ... will be sending to KL time square for training for 2 days then only start to work .... and the work here were on shift just like job as steward ? XD .... After finish up the interview.... i did shake my hand with Shaki .... and he said will pass up my interview result to manager and maybe would have the third interview with the manager only they will decide whether they hire me as a " Barista " or not =) ...

After the interview today .... im happy with what i hv done.... yet satisfied with my performance =D ...... and now wishing to get the job in Starbuck more than Indulgence for just a Waiter XD ..... i think Barista would learn more than a waiter =) so hope that i can get the job.
