So, it was 4am in the morning that I woke.
Took a cab to KLIA, charged a freaking RM80 (in the name of midnight ride, the driver claimed)
Reached KLIA in 30 mins, the driver was a racer in his previous life
Stay in the airport for good (dull) 2 hours before flight at 8.30am. Did not expect free meal with Fererro Roche in the plane. Wow, MAS service really does improved a lot, with the total ticket cost more than half of Air Asia's.
Reached Miri by almost 11, and next a cab to Dynasty Hotel. The stay was not bad, well, better than my experience in Oriental Hotel Penang..
12.30pm: Went for pre- srd briefing, meet an acquantaince, who happened to be my senior in Nottingham U. Took a cab to Piasau Camp together and also pissed a taxi driver off for ffk-ing a previous booking. Well, not entirely my fault, he called up quite late to confirm my booking. How can he call back to confirm at the same time I need to board a cab!
2-5pm: It's all about the SRD.. intro, briefing and some exercise regarding the tomorrow's event. Nothing much actually, many information can be obtain from their web but more sensitive (yet more interesting..) questions may be answered... erm, like salary, working style... and also gettinh to know the other participants. Also, met a friend who had attended the gourami pre-assesment in '08, here for SRD too.
7pm: Had dinner at a wet market near hotel, ordered chicken rice...sibeh salty, i guess must be Hakka territory here..lol. Went back after 30 mins and guess what, it felt like 12am in KL. Stand in the middle of the road and you won't be hit by a car. The town sleeps early (right after dinner wow). Will I survive the sanity of Miri lifestyle?
Silent night...
8pm: In my room now, watching TV and revising my stuff, waiting for midnight to come so I could sleep. Well, I can say that my room is not haunted.
