My Lucky Year

Despite the economic downturn and what not, i am really blessed to have weathered through all my challenges in life rather smoothly .... and indeed i was surprise how well my life going through this year .... god keep on showering me with better and better things .... and ignoring the fact that there is some uncertainty in my career right now, i can say this was the best time in my life so far .....

It is indeed ironic, coz early this year ... i have prepared myself to embrace the worst that can ever happened .... only to find out that things are currently going on at the opposite direction .... half a year have gone now, and i will not be selfish to ask for anything better for the remaining half of the year ... i just want to thank god for my life right now .... and i will continue to be good .... or even better .... :-)

A wise friend constantly remind me that .... good things will happened when you least expected it ... and somehow i have to agree on this so far....

May all my family and friends will experience joy and happiness for the remaining time of this year .....

Back at home finally

On friday afternoon, when i woke up to assume my shift at the rig .... i was told that the whole crew is going back home the next day .... i should be excited ... but this time around .... i am more cautious with my emotions .... twice b4 that i have left devastated of not able to go back ... so unless i have my feet stepping on the ground of my house ... i will never want to be so happy yet .....

After a whole day work, and barely 2 hours sleep .... we were called into the briefing room for helicopter safety briefing .... the exact place where bad news broke out for me to find out that i was denied the passage home .... the expectation was high that time ... so were the disappointment after that .....

After reaching the heli-base at Kota Bharu, we need to book a cab to Kuala Terengganu Airport .... apparently, all the flights to KL was fully booked ... MAS, Air Asia & Firefly ..... wth ??? i wonder what was going on .... my friends jokingly told me that maybe ladies for all around malaysia was going to Kelantan to interview for the prince's next wife ..... hahahahaha

The trip to KT was no pleasant at all ... 2 and a half hours journey with a stiff neck at the end of the journey .... the taxi driver actually switched off the air-cond and wind up the window during most of the journey .... and it was really a hot day ..... so basically sweat and cooked all the journey .... never really bothered to talk to the driver about it ... too tired to even talk ....

At KT airport, we was lucky .... we managed to change our flight to 4:15 pm ... i imagine that initially we was booked at 9:10 pm ... an extra 5 hours hanging around at the big but empty airport .... what a suffering situation to even think about it ....

Touched down at KLIA .... and found out my whole family went to Seremban to have dinner with one of my relatives .... "kononnya" father's day .... i did not want to eat dinner alone .... so instead of getting a cab back home .... i head straight to seremban .... and have dinner with my family and relatives .... i was tired but since i have been away for so long .... i would like to do something meaningful the moment i touched down at KL .....

Finally after dinner, i got back home .... my whole body was really starting to break apart .... my eyes cant really open anymore .... so i just take a bath, check some e-mails and head straight to my bed at 10:30 pm .... doze off the moment my head touches the pillow .... such a wonderful sleep i have .....

anyway, here i am waking up at 4:00 am ... for no particular reason .... and decided to blog again .....

Bad day ?????

I have not been blogging lately, due to the never ending limited time I have at home ... life this year has been travel, work, travel, work .... i can't even remember the last time that i have a long and quality break .....

Something unusual happen today, when i taking shower to get prepared to go back home from the rig .. i suddenly have this bad feeling .... but i just ignore it as i am too happy to know that i am going back home .... i changed to my clean coveralls ... go down to the galley to have lunch .... and happily sitting at the TV room for the safety briefing .... until ===> someone came in and told my team that we are held back ... WE ARE NOT GOING BACK !!!!! .... i was stunned for a moment ... and i know what is this bad feeling all about .... i have already ask my friend out tonight ... a friend that coincidently came back for a break from Perth .... and other plans .... I just cant hide the disappointment in my look anymore....

I also realize that today is the first day i report to work for my first job ... that was after my graduation .... so as for today, i have been out here in the working year for exactly 4 years .... hmmm ... how come i dun want to work anymore ..... hahaha .... i think it's not only me .... many of you out there feel the same way too .... :-P

Well, considering that i have slept for a couple of hours and my mind is still fresh and i can think better now .... what is this one bad day compare to the many lucky days i have got this year .... so just brush it aside and life goes on .... :-)
