Slow And Safe

Pretty much what is happening with the project here in Bintulu. This is how the Kerang plant works. The Malay proverb ' Biar lambat asalkan selamat' applies here. Safety first, so that everyone get home safely everyday. Its good in one way but bad in another. Whatever just hope the project can complete fast is good enough.

Another slowness experience is with one of the restaurant here called Spring Garden . Reminds me of Soon Tuck Restaurant back home. Order my food and need to wait 1 hour to arrive. There is a lot of people eating but the truth is, most of them are waiting for the food. Seriously, the cooking is very slow and there is only like 6 -7tables that can fit more than 5 people. They said the most famous dish here is the fried chicken feet. I tried it, doesn't feel its that good. Maybe really just for chicken feet lovers.Anyhow, the food is also just normal for me but I can say its quite cheap.

Hopefully, things will move along fast these coming days. Wanna wrap up my job and go home!!!!!!!!

Much Ado About Nothing

Felt kinda ironic when on the way to LCCT at 4.30am. These songs were playing on Hitz.FM as I can remember, I Wanna, You Belong To Me, I Gotta Feeling, Falling For You. Man, its not like I am going for a honeymoon in Bintulu.

Can't sleep in taxi due to the incessant beeping which sound each time the speed reach 110km/hr on the new meter, the taxi installed. Can't believe it cost RM100 for the check-in luggage and tools.

Fast forward...informed by the Shell Safety Officer we need Immigration work permit to work in Sarawak? I was like WTF, aren't we 1Malaysia? Apparently the contact person only realize this on our briefing day and after much hassle, we go back to KL to get our work permit done. At some point, I felt like smoking illegally and get kick out by Shell so that no need to come back there again..hehe.

So what I did in Bintulu??

1. Laze around in Shell rest area. See people play pool, use the massage chair and surf Internet.

2. Run around the Immigration, tried to apply for a blue passport and travelling document..lol. Felt like a foreign worker from China.

3. Ate Kuching Laksa, drink 3-layer tea (taste like 'liang cha'. Drink beer in a local pub..haha.

Life is seriously funny sometimes, you got too concern about something, in the end, you got busted for other things. I don't know who to blame here or what was the better solution. Life is just unexpected.

Life is Overated

That's what Ahban says..

so I remember the lyrics from Three Doors Down 'Here Without You'

The miles just keep rolling as the people even wait to say hello,
I've heard this life is over rated
but I hope that it gets better as we go
ohhhhh yeah

I'm here without you baby,
but your still on my lonley mind,
I think about you baby,
and I dream about you all the time,
Im here without you baby,
but your still with me in my dreams,
and tonight girl it's only you and me
