Life update

It felt so different since I return to Miri from Penang. Before returning to Penang, I find Miri quite an okay place to live, reasonable and edible food, slower paced life. But after CNY in Penang, I felt that I've missed the life on the fast lane. Good food, good entertainment and near to family (that minuses the freedom actually, lol)

My car front suspension noise now is getting worse. Perhaps it's time for repair, again. Found out that the car brakes aren't effective enough after driving only vios, a budget toyota. Harsh ride, bad NVH, terrible gear changes (auto unfortunately) and sluggish. But what could I expect for a 40k car with pretty low fuel consumption.

Visited Labuan for the second time. This time is a business visit to contractor site to familiarize on drilling and logging tools. I was so blur there as I'm from environmental team but luckily, colleagues and contractors clarified and explained me through. It was a good exposure and It actually helped me to decide/ consider which career path that I actually prefer.

What else can you relate to CNY other than food and card game. Had plenty of food since the eve of CNY. Quite a couple of card games at colleagues house. Won a couple but still could not recover the SAI LANG lost before the year of *roar.

Business as usual. Worked from 7 to 5 now.. not 4 any more. Happy with current life but could be better.

All I must say, it's a week well spent.

Happy Anniversary

I am already working for a year. For a year, I have been earning, although income offset the spendings. Still, better than my younger days when I was a family credit guzzler. A year working here has been a smooth yatch sailing regardless of the wind direction for a sailor. The sailor is not sure where he'll end up soon or whether he will have the chance to see which shore he'll land. Being a young inexperienced sailor, the only option for the moment is to observe the weather daily and do what is right for the day. Not any opportunities to peek at captain's telescope to see where he am set to go. At times, or most of the time, the sailor contemplates a lot about his role. Sometimes it's bright sometimes it's bleak. The sailor hopes... someday when he knows how to read a compass, he will be able to clear his own path... ah, enough of metaphore and personification. Have a great weekend!

easier said than done..

A recent conversation with a friend made me realise there are so much things, when said is ideal, when done might turn out to be less pleasant. Well of course one cannot run away from continuously managing an activity or action so that it does not turn ugly at all. Continuous management is what human tend to call, commitment. And who the hell made that word up, I've missed an M the first time I wrote it! As far as I lived to write this post today, I am 'proud' to still not tied down by the human-termed 'commitment'. I can have all the 365 days for myself, all my earnings for myself (of course I voluntarily treat my family which made me happy, and that's what I do for myself too) and all the time for myself. I can safely assume that I have almost zero commitment. Probably as the level of maturity heightens with age, responsibility and commitment come into play naturally. Not sure if from zero to hero sounds great when it is about commitment to everyone but I gues...

golf..

I had the chance to try golf yesterday. My colleague offered to teach me some of the basics so we off to Miri Golf Club for a few 'noob' hit at the driving range. Golf ain't easy eh.. We paid 5 bucks for 50 balls... that's 10 cents for a ball. Ok, I think it worth. If I make a bad hit, it's equivalent to throwing a 10 cents coin into the river. Hahah. It's gonna be a while for me to train myself to hit the ball most of the time. Currently, I'm already feeling the after effect of swinging the golf club. Muscle aches... Anyway, lets not stop halfway here...
