Christmas Learning

This year's Christmas i've learn something which is kinda odd since Christmas is usually a season of giving and receiving but i guess we can learn stuff whenever and wherever... And this year i learn another lesson on friendship.

This is my first Christmas away from home ... well not exactly away from home, but not exactly at home either. Anyway its something new to me... And the feeling to all this... erm... well, i was never a holiday kinda person so it has never occur to me that there was a holiday feeling, i mean other than being lazy. Never actually looked forward for a holiday coz to me all the days in a calender is the same.... but this year there was something different in my life... i start to miss stuff.. hehee.

Well I was in KL and i've spend everynite at home dispite the urge of leaving the house and go somewhere to do something but wasn't able since wasn't able to find anyone to entertain this leech. Until JS called and ask me to arrange a meeting / gathering with those in KL... Well as difficult as it was (at least to me... i seldom do this hahah) i called a few guys and send some sms-es and the response?? Well not bad... Hoong, Wah, and Walter showed up and we have a nice chat and it felt good.

Chat bout each other's working life and the on-goings and gossip on the in and around the uni buddies. Few got wed and some changed job... well its just nice to catch up on each other even though we dun met each other as often as we used to ...

Nway.... the lesson i learn this Christmas is that I do have friends... i'm not the lonely shadow that i think i was ... i've always thought i was the out of sight out of mind kinda character in most people's mind hahaa... thx guys for making me thinking otherwise =)

The closing chapters of '08

Today is Christmas Eve... the so called "Ping An Ye" which, in direct translation, safety night ... hahhaa... dun even ask, i have bad chinese :p

Its the holiday's eve and i'm at home playing game, cant help it but to think its kinda pathetic but its ok... i wanna have a good nite of rest tonight. Will driving back to Kay Ell tmr hehehee

...

... ...

... ... ...

Well as the title suggest, i'm at the very closing few pages of 2008 amd it cant be help but to have a recap of all that has happened to me this year.

erm... er.... ar....

Cant really recall what are the significant stuff that had happen in my life this year... maybe the biggest thing that has happen is me resigning from S*** and move on to INTergrated ELectronics. Away from it all... away from my family and my frens in Kay Ell... well it aint that bad actually. The most memoriable things is the fact that people ask me why do i wanna leave KL? I would basically answer ...
"...Well been trying to get a girlfriend in KL but unable to get one even after searching for 20 odd years so wanna expand my search to outside of KL ..."

Its such a clasic answer for such an classic question but seriously, i left KL is basically i'm searching for something more... something more challaging that my previous job. I remember asking myself this question, will you give up something you know you want for something you think you might want?

Did have the feeling that I would have a better lifestyle if i were in Penang since my closest uni mates are there but i guess i was wrong. I cant help but to feel that i have move of a life in KL than in PG, at least i would go around looking for friends for a movie or for dinner etc but over here... ... i've turn into the so called real me... the workaholic that i am hahah ...

Come to think of it, i do miss my live in KL, miss my 'ol colleagues there SMing, and Lee as we are partners in most of the crimes in DTS. But coming here has open up my options... although its more stressful here but it seems to be to my liking at least till this point.

So here i wanna add a note to myself... Get a life in 2009, dun stay in lab too long... get a gf wuakakaka ... i guess this is wat's been going on around with my colleagues, been boombarded by them throughout Dec... sigh~

Two types of people?

Just came across this mind boggling question ... again... erm... not really again but its just one of those question that would pop up out of nowhere and it's just like nobody wanna answer... Anyway... .... ...

Was having a casual conversation with a colleague when this was brought up...
"...There are two type of people... one who is more suitable just as your boy/girlfriend and the other is those who is more suitable to be your husband/wife..."

I believe most of us has come by this question at some point of your life either being popped up during ur casual conversation or during some heart to heart talk with ur closest buddies but have u ever stop and wonder where U belong in this equation? I mean most of the time we will be discussing about the "other" person instead of urself personally.

Have we've (or in this case, me...) ignore this question or we just don't want to talk about it... ehrm... in any case, this did got me thinking... which group do i belong to?? The just-the-boyfriend type or the my-future-husband type? How bout u?? Where do u belong to? Care to share?

Un-orthodox weekend

Today is a saturday...
I didn't spend my weekend in the lab... ... (which is kinda odd haha...)
And to add to that suprise, i didn't spend my entire day playing game either... well few rounds but its not one of those glued-to-the-seat-hardcore-gaming type...
So what did i do the whole day???? Erm... ... ...

Well initially i thought i was to become a driver to go to the mainland to someone but wat do u know, instead of heading to the bridge, i was asked to send to the jetty instead which indirectly did kinda upset my timetable. Since i would have assumed that i'll b in BM the whole day so i didn't plan to go to work. BUT~~~ After dropping them off i got bored and i just went home instead.

Well if some of u are tryign to figure out what i did the whole day, just an FYI... no i didn't sleep a wink at all and i did spend the whole afternoon in front of the PC...

What i do???

Erm...

..

I was editing photos... Yupz... I've been in trigger happy mode recently especially when i brought my lil S3 IS here... and its not JUST about the camera, sometimes, some photo editing is required to bring out the best in the shots... so i hope i manage to do some magic hehee...

Allow me to share some of my work ...


This goes to the top of my best edits so far... hehhe...


I guess this brings it together hehee...

Well for my other works... check my bloggie some other time and maybe i'll just add them in :p
Well gtg... time to hit the sack... nid to go to work tmr~

All 4 One

All 4 One is one of the boy band that their song have an ever lasting imprint in me... can't really remember when was the first time that i started listening to their song but to me their songs are still one of the best songs on my personal top charts...

Been looking for the song "I'm sorry" for a very long time and yet i've not a slightest clue on where i can get it on the world wide web. I manage to relive the moment over youtube and quench my thirst, when i manage to find the song and i just continue clicking on the next song, "These Arms" and the next, "So In Love" ... haha.. such nostalgic feelings hahaha... come to think of it, whenever we use the word nostalgic or "it brings back memories" or any similiar terms it means that we have moved on a next stage of life because those are the words of those who rememebers something that they have long forget...

I do hope there are some 80's babies around here who share and understand this same thing that i'm feling now hahaa... I belive there are some songs yester-years that has come into your life and left an everlasting imprint that would leave a smile on your face whenever u listen to them again...

Call me a hopeless nostalgic, i dun care... =p

P.S: Oopsie... All 4 One begin their singing career in 94... which make me Std5??? Did i started on english song that early in life?? Erm... i can't feel that it came so much later....

Hapi moments~~

Its the year end... and there are a lot of ppl that i know are tying they knots with their special someone ... a lovely scene that i guess all of us would enjoy seeing and experincing (except for the big, big hole in your wallet =P)

I had a uni mate who walked the aisle last month and now two of my closest colleagues are tying their knots too... well technically one is going thru the first ring and there other is stepping into the 3rd stage of marriage hehe... if any of them are reading this i think i might appear in the first page of the next morning's paper hahahaa.... but seriously there are nothing more beautiful than seeing your friends finding their life long partners and move on to the next stage of their relationship... its just a nice warm and fuzzy feeling ...

Anyway... like all things in life, not all things are "that" beautiful wuakakaka... due to all this love that is floating in the air i've been brutally "assulted" and "attacked" by friends around me, namely my colleagues
>.<
Since most, if not all, of my closest colleagues have found their special missing piece of their heart that completes' them but that doesn't mean that they have to pick on me right? Sigh~~~ Just because i'm still S.A.D, which stands for Single, Available and Desperate (hehe i thought of this myself =p) but that mean that i'm really desperate. Lately i've been bombarded by them on this topic which left me speechless. Hey not fair... if's its a 1 : 1 battle i believe i'm capable of defending myself but this is more of a gang up.. NOT FAIR~~~~~~~~~~~

To my friends who are reading... i'm still in admist of searching for that missing piece but hey its not a walk down the park u know... firstly, i spend more time in the lab that outside and second... i don't really have that many girl friends who are still available... since most are already taken haha...~~ Lonely~~ I'm Mr. Lonely~~ I have nobody to call my own~~~~ Lonely, I'm Mr. Lonely~~~ wuakakakaka
