Resting Life in My Hometown - KayTee

--20 March 2009 (Friday)--

Today is my last working day at company. I had dinner with my colleague before i took bus back K.Terengganu. I reached earlier at Golden Mile Tower bus station. The golden mile tower, aka "small Thailand", full of Thailand pubs, stalls, even the newspapers and magazines sold are in Thailand language.

At 9:30pm,I checked in for Konsortium bus. This time I decided to paid more for the bus ticket -- S$50 for 3 seater in Konsortium instead of S$40 for 4 seater in Transnasional. Why??? This is because I encounter big problem whereby I totally couldn't sleep well for 12 hours bus journey and my whole body pain for 2 days during my journey back to KT for CNYE celebration. I surrender that I can't stand for 4 seater bus for 12 hours journey.

I very very surprised and very very excited when see the bus. The bus ticket was stated "S.VIP seater" but the bus that I took is "Snoozer seater". If not mistaken, a single trip from s'pore to KL is costed S$ 46 for "Snoozer Seat". How lucky am I. There are only 18 seats in the bus and each of the seats has its own LCD (HDD player) and a earphone with controller at the right side of the seat. There are movies and songs to choose (chinese, malay, english, cartoon, indian, etc). The best part is the seat is all electronic controlled whereby you can adjust the seat down like a bed by just press a button. That night, I slept well. This is the first time (since mmu time) that I slept non-stop from S'pore till KT and no body pain anymore.

Although I can't read or see anything in bus/car since easier feel dizzy, but I forced myself watch "Hellboy 2" during the first 2 hours of bus journey. Overall, it's "very very" "shiok". Feel luxury, like sitting at 1st class or business class cabin in aeroplane. Unfortunately, the bus ticket only sold for Redang season. In other mean, I forced to back KT by Transnasional bus during CNYE. Sob sob >.< .....

Lastly, thanks to my dear for sponsoring the bus ticket =)

- - 18 March 2009 - -

It's been long long time no update my blog... Year 2008 till now year 2009 >.<

2 more days, I'll be back to Malaysia - Kuala Terengganu and Melaka. 2 more days, I'll quit my current job... Resting 1 week++ and charging full battery before starting a new battle of life.

I've lost and tried hard searching for myself for 3 months... desperate, cried, don't know what to do and don't want to do anything. Really thanks to my jimui and my dear colleague who support me all the ways, especially my dear. I know he very "samfu" and stress working from days to nights, even 7 days. He never moody in front of me, in fact he listened to me, encouraged me, and accompanied me to go through the difficulties.

Sometimes, I felt I'm stupid cried for nothing. I know I'm lack of confidence as I'm a foreigner in a country which different culture and lifestyle.

At first, many said "economy very bad, everywhere retrenched, don't be so silly go resign / find job. Better work and keep silent even been bullied/scold like hell" ... I almost gave up and want to back Malaysia. He never had the same thought as others, he encouraged me and said "there are still companies which want to hire people during bad economy. if you really unhappy and can't take it anymore, just resign and go to find the job that u like. if really no job, go to study and upgrade yourself. Don't worry about the financial problem, I support u"...OK, I just give a try. I sent resumes, without much hoping to get any reply since most of companies want PR/Singaporean. Fortunately, I got 6 interviews and 3 job offers.

I'm very happy. Then, another bad news... s'pore government restricted Malaysian to work at s'pore. There will be 30,000 foreigners to be send back to their home country and 20,000 of them are m'sian. Friends told me that their friends got job offer at s'pore but the work permit was rejected by government. My happiness and hopes all gone during the days, even cried sometimes. My dear kept encouraged me that those rejected are diploma holders, he strongly believe that I'll get my employment pass successfully. At last, my employment pass was approved on last monday. He said " see....told u...cried for nothing...." >.<

"There will be always a sunny day with rainbow after a rainy day".....He's right. I should believe myself.

Gonna to miss my old colleagues. They treated me so good, taught me a lot of things, even bring me go try nice foods... Thanks to my dear tammy jie jie, uncle loh, and supplier mr.tan hehe. Tomorrow will have a dinner gathering with them.

I will be working as an administrator for Genting IR project at Sentosa Island. Hopefully everything fine and OK...
