01 Traveling
Ceased going home
Until today, ie a Friday
Been traveling to and fro dorm
Or else my family is preparing to
send me to a random home of a friend
who got a bro-in-law or some one
happen to work in the same company
So that he can give me a lift everyday
No I would rather travel five hours per day
Than to bunk in with people
I don't even know
You can call me an anti-socialist
Yesterday the bus screwed again
Waited from six ten to seven
Finally a cab came to my rescue
Goodness
Cab + two trains is so much comfortable
Than the daily 8-buses trips
under such traffic condition
Unless I can afford to flunk
Fifty bucks everyday
or else which would be my routine
found out from the usual mr. driver
Thurs is his off-day
so he did not know what goes wrong
so probably can expect the same situation next week
02 Boss
But the cab ride is worth it
Because I bumped into my boss
Right in front of the entrance
Our first non-official conversation
And I sort of came to her rescue
Because she somehow did not have her entrance tag with her
Not that I wanna suck up
But oh yeah
Building a good relationship with your superior is
the first and foremost thing to do
Or else you gonna get a hard time
03 office politics
Yes I guess
Inter relationship issue is
Much bigger an issue
Than the work itself
and the guy sitting opposite my desk
Was telling me
He has seen a lot
Since we are sitting right outside the boss office
I get what he means
He was saying that
sometimes when they are stress
Just bear with it
The attitude or things of that sort
Such a nice neighbour
He is
i am surrounded by neighbours
from TV production side
So far so good
Nobody has been giving me
a hard time or whatsoever
And of course
I am trying to do my part
The best I can
04 fellow commuters
peer support is something
that gives the extra boost everyday
I finally talked to the girls
One of them
Who I always bumped into at the dorm
6 in the morning, 9 in the evening
On the same bus
Both are doing attachment as well
At two different places
Ironically one is working at a company
Like 15km away
But still 4 buses journey
Is not avoidable
So I am not that bad after all
At least I travel on a four days basis
They are Indonesian
Can't possibly be going home
As a getaway on weekends
05 reflection
it doesn’t feel that bad
when you see there are others out there
going through the same thing
other than the two girls
Basically 6am bus is always filled up
those travelling to work too
also students heading to school
Yeah I used to wake up at 5 am
To finish my Maths or to do revision
And tuition classes went on
As late as 10 pm
Therefore basically
There's nothing to complain about
it’s something I have undergone
Moreover sleeping around eleven
Is supposedly the right routine to go
Since I can always catch a quick nap In the bus
five hour sleep is more than enough
every night done showering at 10
i can only choose one thing i would like to do the most
choose one
- novel reading
- blogging
- housekeeping
06 cooking
cooking a proper dinner
i mean a dupper
is kinda impossible
and i would have starve to dead
waiting for my precious potato
come to boil
The other night
Came back to an empty dorm
So excitedly boiled some water
after cleaning up the stove
what the heck, the stove
did it just snow here during the winter
Coming to realize
I don't have anything to cook
Seriously nothing
Not even the always abundant supply of Potato
It's ok
Finally cooked my first meal in 2013
“The London Quick Dinner Fix”
Pasta in mushroom soup
Time spent on preparation
Less than 3 minutes
I really enjoy such dinner all solo
Rather than a whole table of dishes
With people I don't know
07 wardrobe
Been wearing something pseudo formal
With black skinny and cardigan
I don't have any proper top
It's always tank top or
Tucked in little dress
Little dress on its own is a no no
Traveling in a bus
So packed that I have to use
My huge tote bag to protect myself
From direct skin contact from
The person I mean persons next to me
And sneakers
Since I gonna be here for 8 weeks
Been thinking
Should I wear 8 different pairs
Switching on a weekly basis
Do I own that many pairs?
Possibly
08 TGIF
Speaking of wardrobe
Company custom is
Tee shirt on Friday
Kinda awesome, right
Parents bring their kids in on Friday
And best of all
Office hour is shortened by 30 mins on Fri
and after 4:30 p.m.
running across desks
having the weekly chill-out session
getting a little noisy
is what everyone else is doing
2 weeks are gone
1/4 of my attachment
Six more weeks to go
And i would soon be liberalized
My 5 years old Stan is showing me the blue
And I was already half way composing
Don't think there's autosave function
First time blogging from iOS App
then do a little editing after Stan woke up
the next morning
blogging on the go
is maybe something i can start doing
because most of the time
idea is flowing during the long journey
by the time i reach home
soon have
no idea where the idea is
