Life

This is a sad week...

On Sunday I received news a childhood friend had passed away. Her mum and mine were best friends, we used to visit each other regularly when we were young. We drifted apart after primary school.. hasn not seen here since but still kept in touch through her younger sister who is same age as me.

Tuesday received news that my ex colleague's father had passed on after a few weeks struggle in the hospital. My colleague had kept eveyone updated on FB and everyone was praying for him. (Pray? it seems that is the only gesture available when you feel for the person but knowing nothing much you can do, a sensation I could never get used to, a feeling of weakness that sores your nerves)

First message I received in my SMS this morning I was told a close High school friend will be under going operation to remove brain tumor.. unsure about the chances and friends and mates have setup a page in FB to wish her well..

IN the car on the way to work my colleague who car pool with me received a message from his girlfriend in Thailand informing him that her gransmother had passed away...

This is by far the most death notices I have received in a week.. one can't help but thry to be philosophical to explain the ruins of life and attempt to cheer others of the silver lining...

Holy Shit! What a sensation!

Happy New Year to all! 2012 came and gone, no point crying over spilt milk... did not achieve target to lose weight, no MBA, no PE, no JIM etc etc.

Well, at least I am now in Korea, a new experience for em, to work in a cold climate country. and my cat is having babies...

This piece is not about new year resolution. It is about me traveling 14 hours from KL to Busan, from 32C to -8C this morning in Busan.

Shit that is cold. To make matters worst the site office I am in is facing seafront, throw in the windchill factor the coldness is bone chilling. Further to that the toilet is situated in a building away from the site office, one have to go out from the office and climb 3 storeys to reach the toilet. On top of that the toilet is not ventilated. Imagine when you pull down your pants to take a dung and feeling the cold breeze of   -8C flowing through your ass haha!

What a sensation!

Cheers everybody!
