Midsemester Dreamers

When I think about my future career path, I would rather not think about my scholarship bond. It somewhat spoils the fun of dreaming. Numerous feedback can be found in the net about how hard it is to be satisfied with your work.

So the objective of my career path would be to make ultimate use of my bachelorhood and youth so as to gain as much experience and exposure the field of oil and gas has to offer. Concentrating on my youth because I know the resposibilities to come and circumstances due to those resposibilities may be a big influence on the jobs that I am able to take. Ultimately, I hope my first job with Petronas (if Allah wills it) will be in Miri, Sarawak. I need to be in the field and the matter of job satisfaction will only be prime when I have aged.

I plan to work my butt off for the first 5 years of my career and get meager pay. With that many years of experience under my sleeves, I hope that it will be a great platform for me to aim for the stars and perhaps get myself into the corporate and management sector.

My definition of a dream job would be to integrate public relations, management and travelling. I am great with people and have great presentational skills. But honestly, I really, really hope that Brunei opens up their own oil company so that I can reap the benefits and create my kingdom there.

Fix You

When you try your best but you don't succeed

When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse.

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you
- Fix You, Coldplay

But I couldn't. Because I didn't know what to say to make you feel better.

Correspondence

I got some picures from the photographers, Steven and James. Steven is the secretary of Foto Imej Perak, has kindly kept in touch with me via email. There will be an exhibition on the photos that entered the photography competition on 17th - 19th of October held at Ipoh Parade. I think I'm going!! And just for keepsake, I'm gonna put a clipping of the emails I got within the past week, just for the fun of it!

Krom Luang

Tuesday was Nuzul Quran, and we had the day off. Not wanting to miss the full range seafood buffet offered at Krom Luang, Ipoh near Greentown area, my friends and I were really looking foward to stuffing ourselves!! The late afternoon in Ipoh was a bit rainy so we didn't get our group picture taken.

The array of food was appetizing! As noted, the food ran out quickly so getting there early was a prime factor to success. Even more so when s1nach & co were also booked for a party of 12. Competition, competition.

I had eveything planned out. Maximize on crustaceans, things we can't find at Ali's and take the mahal2 stuff only, minimise the rice and chicken and whatnots.

Jenga and I took about 3 plates in total of just the dishes, no rice. Then another 2 plates with rice and veggies.

The plates was heaped in prawns in garlic paste, baby crabs coated in tumeric powder, kerabu sotong, steamed fish, and suprise suprise there was also lauk nenas masak kuning with salted fish! Tofu in oyster sauce, tomyam with crab and more prawns..and more and more..Nafsuu!!

For dessert ( I wasn't too keen on dessert, because its been months since I had a proper meal with mr.Prawn and mr.Crab) there was an array of traditional Thai dessert, pulut with mango pieces, sweet barley porridge, and a continous flow of orange cordial. All for a worthy 17 ringgit.

All in all we had a great time, the place may be a bit small so some bum clashing moments took place, the ablution area is the toilet, the cashier was really rude to us, although one person thought it was in our place to apologize for the misunderstanding.. silly girl if you ask me.
