Rant & Raves

:: Listening “Otherside” by Red Hot Chilli Peppers ::

Well, this week will be my last week at Kluang, and somehow, I feel at lost. I believe it’s because after spending 2 months in Kluang, I am used to the quiet and peaceful life offered by such a small town. Can you imagine that there’s not even a traffic jam in this area! Of course, I missed the life in KL, like the things we are so used to doing; Starbucks, movies, shopping malls, clubbing, and my friends of course. This is just temporarily because I have been here for so long so I am just used to the life here. No matter what, I am still a city boy (From a distance, I can hear Sharil puked and he exclaimed, “Boy? My ass!”)

There is nothing much in Kluang, so I am watching The Desperate Housewives, again. The system admin won’t let me have Administrative access to this company laptop so I can’t install Diablo 2 to waste my time in Kluang! Dammit! I guess I will just spend my time killing Baal this weekend since I will be all alone, and of course spend a lot of time playing with my iPod Nano! But Diablo 2 is just so yesterday, so I guess its time for me to search for something new. Suggestions, anyone?

Come to think of it, it has been ages since I went clubbing, like Ice Age ago! It has been more than a year and last time I went was actually when Alicia and co. came to Malaysia. So I took them to Rush. Man, I couldn’t believe that it has been so long. The fact is, I am so tired of clubbing that I find that a quiet and peaceful dinner is more appealing than noisy jam-pack ambience. I guess that’s the result of spending much of my younger time clubbing, and I am not young anymore. I will hit the huge 30 next January *hints* *hints* so I guess now I am becoming a naggy-grumpy old man?

Yesterday marked the end of 2 days meeting. During the meeting, I was so tired due to the fact that I started my drive from KL at 4:30am, and when they were discussing about the dry stuff, I couldn’t open my eyes even if I prop them with toothpick. So I took a very short nap (at least I hope it was a short nap). Unfortunately, to my dismay, I found out that actually a lot of people saw my sweet and angelic nappy-look during the meeting! Oh gosh! That’s one big blunder because all the Senior Managers and the M.D. were in the meeting as well! Now I have to wonder if I snore during the napping session!

Something happened yesterday that prompted me to wonder why some people can be so successful in life while others just struggle to keep the end meets. Last Thursday a friend of mine, W, called me and asked me for some properties list. My list ran out so I called up a friend of mine, K, to provide me his list. Well, one would assume that K provided me the list, and I gave it to W, and case close. Unfortunately, this is not the case. I called K few times and I didn’t get the list until yesterday evening, and W has been waiting patiently for the list. I mean, come on! W is a buyer, and as a seller, K should be more interested to provide us the list so W can choose the properties that he wanted. The list is very short so it could’ve been done within 2 minutes. This is K’s own business and yet it seems like he didn’t really care.
