Life as just simply being me...

Really, it's been almost more than 2 weeks since I have not been writing my blog here because I was really busy designing a circuit and its layout on an IC chip. Anyway, I don't want to create a long blog like I did before, but just a short one will do. So many things have happened these past 2 weeks, and things really happen so quickly.

Actually, I will be moving over to the north of Malaysia (Penang) to work with a Japanese company in a Free Trade Industrial Zone. Pay-wise, it is good, since I have some good experience in an American company I worked before, though only some 7 months there. Anyway, this end of June, I will be moving over there, and life would have been totally different there because I will then be living some 320km (200 miles) away from my family in Kuala Lumpur (KL), the city where I was raised. I will miss a lot of my KL friends there, especially those I have just recently met. And, the sad thing is, I have very little friends there in Penang, so I will be alone. That's why I say my life there will be different. I probably will be very workaholic to forget all these sad loneliness. All I will face then is the computer screen, all the time. Sad me... I have no partner to share my life with, no one to share my happiness and sadness together and no one to lend me a shoulder to cry on, if I ever cry.

Just yesterday 22nd April, I have an interview with the HR department of the company I will be working with, so excitement come along the way, together with the impending sadness of leaving my family in KL and the impending sadness of having very little friends in Penang. I have a few, but not many, and I need friends to hang out with, to share my experiences with and to talk with. Anyway, I am happy because I will be meeting new friends there in the company.

The past two weeks, I was busy with my design of the latched sample-and-hold flash ADC circuit and the layout, so a lot of my time were spent on the simulations of the circuit. Actually, during these period of time, I have some not-so-good experiences with some rude people I chat on MSN. To tell you briefly, I send this person some pics of mine, and the comments given to me were horrible "YOU ARE FAT!!!" That's exactly what was being told to me. Anyway, whatever the person was trying to tell me, it not only made me feel greater about myself, but also gave me an inspiration to go workout in a KL gym (near KLCC Petronas Twin Towers) that I have fallen in love (actually love at first sight). I actually wanted to join the gym membership, but due to the membership package they offer (3 month or a year membership), I can't join the gym in KL, because I will have to move on to Penang this end of June. So, I am a little devastated that I could not work out in the gym. For your information, the gym not only has the usual equipments, but also has aerobic classes such as hip-hop dancing, lin dancing, Salsa dancing, yoga, pilate and so on. Cool but a luxurious gym, I should honestly say! Anyway, I hope to be able to join a dancing class in Penang and be like (hahaha!!!) Jennifer Lopez and Richard Gere in the "Shall we dance" movie.

Anyway, some of the past bitter experiences I have with some people I have now forgotten, although I find myself to be a little resilient in that I still wanted to be friends with W I have told you before. But I find this person is also resilient, not wanting to accept my offer of friendship. What a wasted opportunity of a friendship offer. If I quote it here, it would sound very much contradictory to what he has written in one of his home page profile, which reads like this:
"... so i always emphasize that, never ever give up any opportunity that can make up with 2 persons...i always appreciate on the faith in between...because when u never try, never appreciate, u may lose something in your whole life... ".
And another message he wrote in ICQ:
"Friends is a very important issue in my life. They are my life partner,we grow together, and happy each other. Anyone who is interested to make friend with me, hope u can drop message to me, ....."
If you compare to his type of personality I describe you in my previous blog and what he has written in the quotes above, you will see clearly that this person does not do what he really meant in his message. Probably one who knows who to say things but never know how to appreciate what he has written there. Worst, he does not even understand the meaning of his OWN message. Simply writing for the sake of writing it. Anyway, I don't quite understand the complex personality of this person. A friendship is really hard to build with this type of person.

Anyway, I guess this blog is going to get longer if I continue writing it. Guess I will have to end it here. Really, a lot of things have happened these past weeks, which I had wished I can relate all of them to you, but alas, time does not allow me to do so. So, "bye-bye" is all I can say of now...

Hmmm... what more can I say but to say that a sensitive person is a caring person because a sensitive person like me knows what exactly his partner wants or needs, for example, love, support, finance, friendly hug, help, etc. you name it. A lot of of these comes from the general understanding of what everybody really needs or wants in their lives. That's all I can say.
