Caucasian

always stumble upon this word, but never really get a clear understanding of it...

n finally today i searched for this word online(Wikipedia) and here is the explanation:

The Caucasian race, sometimes called the Caucasoid race,is defined by the Compact Oxford English Dictionary of Current English as "relating to a broad division of humankind covering peoples from Europe, Western Asia, and parts of India and North Africa" or "white-skinned; of European origin" or "relating to the region of the Caucasus in SE Europe".

ahhh...now it makes more sense, white-skinned of european origin :) (heh i am seeing them everyday!)

(fine, i know i am stupid for not understanding this term earlier on, but still i am HAPPY to finally clarify it! :D)

P/S: is it that a mix between an Asian and a Caucasian will always produce attractive beautiful/handsome offsprings???...hmm~~*wink*

想出去走走

bought a book 'backpacker' 2 years ago...

was about a M'sian girl taking 2 years off her normal life routine, headed on to europe and started her life as a backpacker. More interestingly was that at the end of 2 years, she chose a different way to head back home- by railway!!!

this book inspired me alot, to experience a life like tat :) at least once...

but life is life, it is just not so easy to put dream into action.

i need money money and money!!! :P (any suggestions???)

and time time and time...

k, swimming time...ciao~

i got back my luggage!

Ladies & Gentlemen,

i am proud to annouce that my inter-POLO brand(if u hav a POLO bag,do remember its exact brand name,as they hav tonnes of different names, oh ya, and colour too!!! just in case mah...) luggage is BACK today, 6th Oct 2007, 1150am...somewhat in A PIECE~~ (u will decide for me from the pic below ):-

tada...my luggage came home with an extra coat, italy brand??? ya right~~
it lost his 2 wheels...
it lost his left hand (aka handle)
it lost 2 legs (aka 2 stumps)

this is all proudly presented to you by :-

Furthermore, they left a kind note INSIDE my luggage, about compensation?about apology? FAT HOPE... it is written : we are OBLIGED to destroyall the perishable goods and have removed all the dangerous items.

ma de... -_- all my herbs and seaweeds are gone...wtf $%&$$ how do they define perishable goods huh???huh?huh? why dint they dump my 'luo han guo' 12 big biji there... ma de~

I hereby declare that i will confirm write to Air France again to claim whatever i deserve!!! muahahaha~~

second try...this do me more justice LOL

good news?? shall wait and see...

guess wat?

Air France in Paris sent a letter back to my home in Ipoh,Malaysia!!! as told by my mum,the letter said that my luggage was found! in Paris! :D

wait a minute, if that is the case, why didn't Air France branch office in ukraine contacted me about this? i know, probably they are still un-awared of what is going on...dummy~~ -_-

ok, i shall be the kind man acting as the middle person and teach them how to communicate among themselves...oh, i will go to heaven!

so i call Air France Customer Relations officer in Kiev main office. at first, i told her( it is a kind young lady, i suppose) that my luggage was found but she keep denying tat; she said " no, no, i had helped u to search all around but failed, and i had replied ur letter regarding compensation and u will get it today."

me being the kind and educated man again, patiently explained to her that there is really a letter sent to my home, and i can give her the reference number of this letter. she was kinda surprised and typed in the number i told her into her computer ( i supposed, from the typing sound )

" o...o...o..." was what i heard from the other end of phone.

"give me a min...this is so rude...this is so rude..." she was talking to herself i supposed. and i also supposed what she meant was it was so rude of the other party for not informing her about the found luggage? ( or is it me??? hmmm...)

anyway, i dun blame her, it is obviously a communication breakdown among Air France branches.

Air France Ukraine traces my luggage just based on its colour,type,brand and the tag number which should be on it ( but i think it is lost), even though i keep stress on the point that my NAME is written on my luggage!!! -_- apparently this point was not brought across.

meanwhile, fortunately (THANK GOD!!!) Air France Paris happened to find a non-owner-luggage in their airport, and luckily again, my NAME and home add are written on it, so they made the right choice to send a letter to 'me' in Malaysia and inform about this.

oh ya,back to the phone... she told me that she will settle this personally with 'him' ( someone from Paris office maybe? ) and my luggage should be sent back to me in a FEW DAYS TIME.

and i kindly asked her will there still be compensation after i get back my luggage, since after all it is way more than 21 days since my luggage is lost. to my disappoitment, the reply is NO. ( i wont give up easily, i am planning to write to the headquarter office in Paris and ask for the compensation i deserve!!! roar~~~)

ok, i politely told her that i will wait for the call from u (she quickly replied that actually she is not in charged of this,the lost and found dept should and they will contact me, bla bla bla...) FINE, i ended the conversation saying that JUST GET SOMEONE TO CALL ME AND INFORM ME WHEN WILL MY LUGGAGE ARRIVE. THANK YOU. BYE.( see how polite i am :))

(FYI, they neva once called me back, either the lost and found or the air france counter in the airport -_- after all my cost-me-a-bomb calls to them... it is so frustrated sometimes to talk to them, with their i-dun-really-care-much attitude. and u expect me to call them again to inform about the whole situation above??? u think they can do anything??? please la, they are just the inferiors of the inferiors...wat they care is when is lunch break & when is the time to go home @$#$%##%$ -__-)

so i am looking forward to > !!! (praying hard that this is not a prank or something, no more heart attack pretty pretty please)

P/S: oh ya, remember the lady on the phone told me that a letter regarding the compensation had been sent to me. i got it when i got back to hostel :) . with great curiousity, i quickily opened up and only to my devastation, found out that my main concern ---> $$$ compensated is only 500USD... wtf!?!?!?!

phew...THANK GOD AGAIN my luggage is found...otherwise, with lost luggage and only 500USD compensation, i will kill myself... they are so STINGY!!!

this is the disappointed letter i received, saw the 500 written?? (the rest just ignore, it is ukrainian language %$#%^ even i cant read, for goodness sake, i write them in english,reply in english la~)
