Lonely Saturday

Me alone in the room, no one to talk to, no one to look at, felt no presence of other people where my day is filled with boredom. Can't really concentrate to do my stuff, actually to read or understand those documents as boredom really struck me down to get those things into my brain.

3 main thing that i face: BAD BREATH (due to not talking for 12 hrs, other than myself), SLEEPINESS (boredom leads to sleepy mood) and BOREDOM (which i can't stand most of the time for the active me)

It will be another 3.5 hours before i would be able to leave office where i would conclude my work for today. Hope i would still be fresh for my night out. Really wanted to catch a movie le. Hoping to watch Enchanted...

See how it goes...

Cloudy weather, moody feel

Been seeing rainy clouds hovering over kl, raining from morning until late evening or to the extend at night, cold breeze and also less sun light. These has been the condition for the past few days which also reflects to my mood. Been not feeling well since last week, then went to see doctor with the medication for cough and cold where the medicine made me a little blur or drowsy, hence my first 3 days of my week just past with lots of sleep and lazy bugs. Working on Thursday still affected by the medicine, drowsy at some point of time, by Friday feeling much better already. But Friday will have a different meaning for other as compared to me as i would still need to work for this weekend where i would only be having my off day on Monday when others are returning to work. This is the kind of adjustment that i must make...

Now looking out of the window from the monitoring room, outside is still dark, no sun visible and guess the day will remain like this until the end of the day where i head back home to rest for the coming tomorrow. Sigh. I do miss the sunlight too, at least it can bring the cheerful side of us when we are feeling blue...

It's Monday for me?

Weird as the title sound. Actually its true. Why? Cause i would be working for the first day for this week as i have been assigned to work on shift this week and the next also. Means i would need to work throughout the weekend or in another word, my weekend is about to end in like 2.5 hours. Sigh, need to adjust to this working life style. Going to miss those pals of mine during the weekend, would not be able to hang out with them as normal for this coming 2 weeks.

I have applied in for a replacement off day for the 24th December 2007 in conjunction with the Deepavali Day last month. At least i can have a longer holiday for this coming Christmas. I might be planning or looking forward to have my short or brief vacation in Cameron Highlands. Hope that the weather permits. At least to have a short time off from work and also Kuala Lumpur's busy life style.

Hope my Monday tomorrow would be a great day ahead, especially the weekend Saturday or Sunday where it could be the worst day of the week, BOREDOM...

Haha...All the best...

My insomnia for today !!!

sigh, i lay awake having an alert mind hence decided to wake up and burden my mind so that it gets tired in order for the to resume my efforts to sleep sooner or later. Needed the sleep to rest my body to fight against the little flu that i still have in me.

Why i can't sleep? Maybe due to the weird working days i am having for this week. This coming 2 or 3 weeks, i will be working on the weekend shift, where will be working from Thursday to Sunday and my off days would be on Monday until Wednesday. Weird? When others are working, i am sleeping or staying at home where when others are enjoying their weekend, i would then be at work.

I guess i am still adjusting to my new working environment which includes the work day, time of work and the rest. Not complaining, but just expressing. To change some habits or from a comfort zone to a total new environment, is not something as easy i could have imagine it. Now i need to synchronize my activity charts for this week and the coming 2 weeks in order to live a productive week ahead.

What i have done yesterday? Nothing much, was doing some reading for those I-Learn stuff which is pre-requisite where i need to complete it as soon as possible to scrap of the 'incompetent' where related to those pre-requisites.

Found few techie things to play with as below:

  • Foldershare software - https://www.foldershare.com/
    • which sync the folder of two computer
    • tested with a .avi file with the size of 150MB through my sucky Internet connection and also the non-cooperative wireless router but i manage to get that sync in less than 20 minutes with an average of transfer rate of 60-70kbps
    • cool feature if would to share some files quickly
  • E-snips website - http://www.esnips.com
    • website for online sharing up to 5GB of FREE storage
    • able to keep public or private folders
    • able to store photos (create a slide show online) or digital music (streaming or downloading) from the site
  • DynDNS - Dynamic DNS
    • to tie the dynamic IP to a customized domain name where once point to the domain name, it would still point to the same object despite the change of IP Address
  • UltraVNC
    • software to allow the local computer to gain control of the remote control
    • was using that software sometime back, but stopped using it for sometime
    • great to control my home computer from office whenever i am working

As i am blogging now, i am still having the cough from time to time. Its bothering me and also my sleep. Can't sleep well with that, gosh...i really need to rest my body and soul...Ah, forget to mentioned that while blogging, i am watching the House MD, Season 1 just to kill time while waiting for my body to get tired. The episode is coming to an end, perhaps i should get some sleep soon...for the sake of tomorrow?

What i would want to do tomorrow?

  1. I-Learn - finish a few more pre-requisites
  2. Watch some movies
  3. Shopping @ MidValley
  4. Read up more on INSITE & Insite Anywhere
  5. Etc...

Still not well yet

Like the title of my post for today, i am still not well yet after the flu i had last week. The sore throat is leaving, now left with cough. Perhaps the other day had ice-cream at the ice-cream house which left me with the cough. Sigh, hope to recover from it soon as i would need to work on Thursday...

If i don't recover fully, then the Jogoya treat for this coming Sunday would not be an enjoyable one as i cannot eat all i like :)

Weekend is here...

As for weekend, been doing a few things for myself or those around me...

Some of the highlights for my weekend:

  • rest, relax and recharge from my previous flu that i had
    • still have not fully recovered yet, still have the sore throat bothering me, not comfortable at all
  • send my friend to some course
    • i am kind of the road map at times
  • get the gift for my 'kai chai'
    • 3 bookmark as a start, do not want to send expensive gift for now, don't wanna create the envy feelings and etc
    • one for him, 2 more for his bro and sis
    • later proceed to write him the letter, hoping to send by next week or so
  • gathering, aka birthdays celebrations @ Quan Ice-Cream & Coffee House @ Pandan Indah with my friends
    • belated celebration for Kein Yap, forward celebration for Win Khong
    • had a lot of laughter among us, too much to chat, much to joke, lots to tease and more to debate
    • those present: ChinYong, Winnie, KienYap, WinKhong, Shah, EeVern, KeeHon, Sarah and me

Tomorrow will be a rest and relax day for me. Need to recover and rejuvenate myself from my sore throat and flu that i still have. Sigh, need to recover asap, don't want to bring it to office on Thursday and the whole next weekend. Having got to work on weekend is already making it bad, to have myself being sick throughout, it makes it even worst.

My sister would be going for her minor surgery for her little finger which she injured the other week during her trip to the 'Taman Negara'. Hope things go smooth and the doc would be able to reverse her injury. At least i can be there for her on Monday as i am having my off day on until Wednesday.

Christmas is coming, 25 December every year. Need to organise something for this year, at least a gathering or so... let see how things will be. At least, i think i am not working during Christmas and i am able to attend the tradition Christmas dinner... Also, need to hunt for those gift or presents for those orphanage kids for this Christmas, been doing it since last year, would continue this year. Hope to bring happiness or some care  for those kids who are less fortunate. Everyone deserve something good in life :)

That's all for now, would proceed to my beauty sleep. Need to get all the rest that i need to live my active lifestyle. Before i pen off, would like to wish all the best to one of my dear friend for finding her path in life and also her happiness. You well deserve it always :) Happy and cheerful always ... Live life to the fullest...

TGI Friday !!!

Without really realizing it, today is Friday again. Weekend has come and this week I will be having a long weekend as next week I would be working on shift where I would be working from Thursday until Sunday and so forth for the next two week also. Why two weeks? Cause not enough people to cover for the shift; hence I need to work another month. Tried my best to avoid working on Christmas day to attend the custom Christmas dinner that I have been attending for the past few years. Would not want to break the tradition and make someone unhappy…

Since having long weekend, need to think of something to do to occupy the time, but seriously I really need to get well from the flu that I had the other day. I can still feel it still around me pretty much, not fully recover yet and I don’t want to bring that to the following week, it will be so sucking to bring that on and living with that flu in me.

Okay for now, need to get back to work soon. Guys, gals have a great Friday and relaxing weekend. See you guys and gals this Saturday…

Getting better, but not fully

These 2 days have been better, but still seems to be weak. Need to get more rest for the coming month as i will be working on shift again, this time round would be the weekend shift, where i would have the total opposite of the life my friends are having. Weekend for me would only be valid after 7.00pm...

Soon will be heading to the Petronas tower in a while. Why? To work and to skip the fire drill today :)

My sick day...

Today woke up with a fever and also feeling rather chill. Then decided not to go, to get more rest at home. If i do not get better, means i will have a lousy weekday or the coming weekend. Went to see the doctor, currently not having fever, just with a slight sore throat. Doctor gave me the medicine, hope to get better as soon as possible in order for me to go to work tomorrow...

Weekend is about to end...

Not much happened this weekend, mostly of my time was to catch up on time with my friend. Check out the happening with my friend, went to St. John DIM which I have missed for some time already and also to rest my body.

Why rest? Cause I had a challenging weekday which is to obtain the qualification for the BOSIET, Basic Offshore Safety Induction & Emergency Training @ the MAS Academy (Kelana Jaya) organized by SEQU. It was not very hard, but rather challenging as it has been sometime since I had such workout. Been pretty much lazy lately.

Below would be the certificate and the ID card that I have obtained:

PB250108

PB250104

With the cert and card, I can start flying on helicopter and also goes out to the rigs :)

But guess I caught a cold while I was in the water for about 3 hours I guess. Sigh, the water was cold and the worst part of all would be where I need to come on the pool side and into the pool for several rounds, guess that is where the cold came from. Now, I am having slight fever, feeling hot and cold from time to time. Sigh, hate getting sick, would affect my weekday and also my mood. Sigh. Hope all the best for tomorrow, as tomorrow will be, Monday...the symptom of Monday Blue...

Everyone, have a good week ahead :D
