Supremely Tired

-
Yesterday, Friday, my contractors and I went to the outstation platform, one of the operators joined us as well as per procedure, and I got to know him quite well.  We shared a lot of stories and we suddenly click as friends.  I even told him a lot of things, some of which are personal... but then again, the story of my life is hardly personal.  But there are only a few which I consider personal to me and a few friends.  I miss my onshore life.  But the blessing in disguise is that I am able to save money and at the same time earn via my offshore allowances.  It is not that I am materialistic, but I need the money especially that I am building my house soon.

Yesterday I woke up at 5 a.m and as early as 6.30 a.m we were already on our way to the outstation platform, and it was a productive day, the guys are really good in what they do.  I love them to bits.  No, seriously...  They are quick and efficient.  I wish this team stays under my wing and I would do my best to keep them here.  I am thinking to make them jackets with embroidery on them with "We Are The Dream Team".  Yeah, that is what they call my team.  

Basically, yesterday, we supervise the work while the team are working, even so, we didn't supervise them all day long, because the guys didn't like being watch.  If I were them, I wouldn't like being watched all day while I do my work.  It is like someone over looking at your PC while you are working, and that is kind of annoying...  So instead, the operator and I talked and shared our life views and what-not.  It was good introduction to each other.  At about 5 p.m we call it a wrap for the day, and moved back to the main complex platform.  Making a few stops to make a quick site survey for our next job and also to pick few people from other outstation platforms.

At about 6p.m. we reach our rooms and I took a good warm shower and proceeded to have dinner.  Went back to my room and turned my laptop on and went online.  Chatted with my baby, for a while and ask for an excuse to have a nap...  Actually it was suppose to be a nap, as my admin is still working on the desktop and working on the progress report and I had to sign the report.  But I slept instead, I woke up not knowing what time it was, and I checked using the laptop and it was 2 a.m.  Oops, I thought....  my admin didn't wake me up, bet they knew how tired I was...  So today, I told them to wake me up and I don't mind if they turn the lights on, as my room is also the office.  

So today, nothing much happened, am going to a meeting in 20 minutes.  I slept throughout the morning and woke up at about noon, I kept being in my room because I didn't want to have food.  I could seriously get fat here.  Food is always available and if I didn't watch my weight, I'd be in serious trouble.  I talked to the assistant site supervisor and talked about their plans for the next week or so.  It's all good.  Okay then, I guess, I will leave you with that, because I have to prepare for my meeting ....  Until then, take care and Adios

Random Rant, Update?

-
I don't know why. Here I am at 2.34am drinking left over "teh tarik" from today's open house at my parents. And decided all of a sudden that I wanna write something on my long abandoned blog. I have been clicking on the links that I have at the left side of my blog and it seems that most people have already abandoned their blog, by either cancelling them or not updating them.  I suppose it seems that writing a blog is no longer appealing and cool to some.  There are some that are still strong writing their rants. I am merely speculating, that now media is so easily discover-able that people are afraid to be on the accidental spotlight.  There have been few instances that blogs got discovered by their thoughts and suddenly everyone hates the writer.  And perhaps, again speculating that people are afraid to really say what is on their mind.  Naming and shaming is kindda "in" thing.  Especially with the freedom people can do with Whatsapp.  Just link it, yo

Happy Birthday to Me

Happy Birthday to Me Warning: This will be a long read. There are a lot of things in my mind which I wanted to express. Today is my birthday, and now I am three decades old. Time has travelled so fast in front of my eyes. And today, I look back my life and reflect my past. And will also discuss my years to come, insyaallah. First and Foremost, on the eve of my birthday was the Sixty Second DJ competition which ran align with the best 914. Best 914 is a singing contest where the contestants are selected from a radio show which they called in and sang with a minus one song. And now, yesterday they sang really really well and they sounded like professional singers. It's amazing that they are just singers who just sang along in the radio, for some they have been into a few singing contest. Then it was our turn. I was the fifth contestant, to go and face the crowd. It was nerve wreaking looking at what looks like about a thousand people watching you. I did what I can, and I did it wi

Tolerances and Compromises

-
I'm half angry and half sulking with my OH . Sometimes my OH have this ability to make me feel needy and clingy. Sometimes I feel that I'm always the one giving and giving, thus making me feel just like that. It is as if, I'm holding all my cards out for everyone to see for the sake of love. And I'm only making a great fool of myself. Where does that fine line starts or stop? Where would you draw the line from doing something for someone your love and doing anything and everything for someone you love? As days go by, sometimes I feel I'm doing the latter. I'm only writing my frustration here, not to belittle my beloved OH , I just need to release this anger that I am having at the moment. So what was this all about? Without elaborating too much on the matter, I asked to be together for one night and do what I wanted to do and then, I got a quick turn down. Purely because my OH don't feel like it. I've done my part of reluctance for the sake o
