It's been almost two years ..

yeah .. it has been that long since I updated this blog .. and there is this temptation for me to delete this blardy blog and start from scratch .. lol .. frankly, I'm not sure what's stopping me from doing so .. maybe I need to see the time gap between the posts to remind myself that it needs more update .. lol .. definitely maybe ..

The Saisaki Adventure ... no this is not a food review

meeting up with friends ... especially those whose company you really enjoy often leaves an indelible memory ... well i just had one of those moments ... a simple gathering with my former colleagues ... whom i first gotten to know back from those scholarship orientation camps ...

this time the gathering was held at saisaki restaurant ... a japanese buffet style restaurant that offer a huge variety of choice ... the ambiance is really nice and clean ... and i heard it was just being renovated ... well, as the title suggests, i will not be doing a food review ... for the simple reason that most of my time was spent catching up with this bunch of friends ... chatting and joking with them does bring back memories of the good ol' days where occasions such as this is a daily occurrence , during lunch time ...

overall it was a really good outing ... nice place, good food and great company ... what else can one ask for? other than for it to happen more frequent ... :P

who am i?

people who knows me at a personal level will definitely concur that i am one heck of a noisy character ... always being in the center of attention ... and a joker through and through ... and thus, most will definitely assume that i am an extrovert ...

well ... to a certain extent they are right ... and to another extent they are wrong ... during the company trip to bangkok ... i had the opportunity to go through a very interesting personality test conducted by one of my company's director ... and the result? its 21 points of introversion versus 19 of extroversion ... a rather balanced score, i would say

i won't go through the test in details but what makes it interesting is that it made me realize who i really am ... that deep down i prefer being alone ... and that i do find it hard for me to share my deepest thoughts and feelings with others ... yeah, it's hard to believe because people would prefer to believe what they can see ... and they can't see me when i am ALONE ... haha

so ... what about the other persona that most people see? is it just a façade? a mask that i put on in front of everyone? i would say, that is just me letting go of my self-restraint and just have fun for the sake of having fun ... basically having not a single care of the world and just enjoy myself ... often resulting in me stepping on people's toe unknowingly, or otherwise (but that is another story for another time)

yes it is truly contradicting ... bordering on dissociative identity disorder (that's multiple personality for you) ... ahhaha ... but that is just ... ME

another short update ....

well ... time sure flies! without me realising it, it has already been six months since i joined my current company (and it has been approximately that long since i last updated this blog ... haha)

a lot sure has happened during this few months ... work wise, im in my third assignment already ... while waiting for another project to kickstart ... it sure has been hectic ... even requiring me to work during weekends ... as sad and pathetic as i may sound, i actually enjoyed the whole thing ... haha ... guess deep down i am a workaholic ...

on my personal life, my babe has left me ... for her hometown ... haha ... no, we are still together ... it is just that we agree it would be better for her to start her career in the province of wellesley ... yeap ... i'm already missing her ... but at least i won't feel bad about working during the weekends ... (shit ... i am a workaholic!!) .. but anyway i am looking forward to our little getaway in the middle of this month ...

updates ...

Clocked in a whooping 14 hours of work yesterday. By the time I reached home, I was too exhausted to think of anything else other than sleep.

And now is just another start to a crazy day. Thank God it's Friday ...

Lilian and Andrew : Wishing You Guys Everlasting Happiness!

Well, today is Lilian's (my sister) marriage registration. It was held at the National Registration Department over at Maju Junction, Kuala Lumpur. Everyone seemed anxious especially the parents, both mine and Andrew's (my bro in-law).

This is the first time I am witnessing a marriage registration and surprisingly it is a short and snappy process. Yeah, the officers in-charge did seem like they have not taken their morning dose of caffeine, but since Lilian and Andrew's managed to get the first number (thanks to me, of course!), the registration was over in less than 20 minutes.

To Andrew and Lilian - May you love dearly: as Husband and Wife

Lilian and Andrew - the happy couple


(L-R) Andrew, Lilian, dad and mom

updates ...

Well, its official - I'm too lazy to even update this blog despite it being a mean of communication for my friends. Come to think of it, I don't think any of them even bothered to visit this page ... haha ... pathetic right? I guess I should turn this blog into an avenue for me to just keep track of my life. I might just read these words in another 5 years or so and reminisce about it ... provided I can get my lazy butt to update it ...

So today, it is been almost 3 weeks since I started work at this new place. Life has been pretty hectic beginning from the fourth day where I was assigned a programming task. I guess I was thrown to the deep end just to see if I'll sink or swim. So how am I doing right now? I guess 'floating' best describes it ... at least I was able to complete the task given albeit at a very slow pace.

I guess the next step is for me to start moving my ass and swim!
