Life away from home

so here you go, an update about life here thus far. It's been going to 1 month since i came and wau, time does past by fast.

first let me talk about where i am staying now. I am staying with a bunch of students and i am renting one medium room to myself. it's very spacious and other than my room, i do not really like the bathroom, the kitchen, the environment and every other thing. That is why i hate coming back home after work.. else if i could i would go out and only come to bath and sleep and the routine keep repeating itself.

so going to the bathroom, it just does not feel comfortable at all and i think the water here are not clean as everytime i will feel itchy over my body and that does not look good.. grr.. i hate that.. and the kitchen.. each and everytime i walk into the kitchen to wash my cup or anything, i just wanna get out of there asap.. it is this bad.. u tell me how can i cook or even do some minor cooking with this condition and owh..interestingly.. it;s like ants everywhere which makes me so pist off and dun wanna touch anything at all.. grrr.. tell me how could i survive.. i rather not..

so with the description above, of course u dun think i would wanna stay looong there.. so there i go searching for rooms for rent, calling and paying a visit to the houses... and finally i found a sort of perfect place to stay and i have paid my deposit.. i would wanna move from here asap.. end of this month, but after discussion with the housemates... i would stay here for another month.. until end of april.. for their sake as they are still in agreement with the hse owner (i'm not, but the person be4 me who rent the room, went out earlier.. and they are the ones who signed the agreement so guess they will have to bear the May rent inorder for them to get back their deposits).. their agreement is till end of May.. but since i think i heard them telling me they will sign new agreement in may.. i assume that the contract ending on april.. so i had talk with my new landlady and she agreed and i am moving to the new place end of arpil.. it's much more secure and there is a security guard patrolling around, walking distance to foodcourt and many shops nearby.. and the house is so so so x100 times cleaner than ever than my current one..

So yeah, i am moving house and although it much more expensive but i think it's worth la.. perhaps 1 year and then i could save $$$ to own a house myself.. haha...

and now it is time to talk about my work.. work has been good.. really good..
what have i done in the past few weeks?
- well, i reviewed Asian Games, Olympic Games, CommonwealthGames and many many more sports event tapes..
- scripwriting
-attended training on how to produce a good and simple script
-attended studio training with the anchor and presenter...

and next thurs is the launching of the channel and we will go LIVE (hopefully) on the 26th March 2010.

how's work place and all?
-the road i take to go work sometimes is either super jammed, so-so or smooth. a 7km from hse to office or vice-versa on normal traffic takes me 15mins.. else it's 30mins or even more...
-my 1st 2 weeks in office is without Air-Cond.. u could imagine how hot it was and the not yet finish renovated work place... in fact i still have not touch my own desk yet.. again it is still not ready.. using other ppl punya desk now..cause Mezzanine floor(intermediate floor between Ground floor and 1st Floor) have been done.. my office on ground floor and the studio also not really completed yet.. hopefully the contractors get it completed by next week else everything will be in haywire and everyone wil be on lots of pressure to learn everything up really fast..
-i am excited and quite scared as well but hopefully everything will be fine.
-colleagues have been really helpful, friendly and easy to talk with.. :)

Guess that basically sumarize my 1 month here now...
till then... :)

random babbling

just a quick word or two and will promise to update this space on my new transition to KL in a week time? barring any activities this weekend.

many have been asking me how's life's in KL and i dunno how to explain.. i find it hard.

But just to let everyone know.. i am loving my job but not the life as in where i am staying or wat..i am moving to a new place soon. it's better, safer and much better? haha..and i am not tat homesick anymore. Somehow i feel at peace with myself.. just need to be more enlighten.. tat's all..

and i wanted to post pictures up and change layout and all.. but my photoshop and illustrator could not be installed and i cant do any graphics or editing before posting it up here.. so that have to wait until i figure out the prob.. and i basicaly know is my OS prob.. and i would have to reformat my laptop again which i am reluctant to do right now cause it means i will have to install all the software back which is time consuming and i am lazy.. tat is the job of my bro.. so gotta wait when i am going back to PG.

for the time being, i did learnt a lot in terms of life and all.. and still braving the momentum of being away and alone in this big city.

all for now. love(s) u all.. missing Penang very much!
