All in all, today have been a very stressful day plus barrages of bad news which involves money have been pounding me since morning,....the thought of chugging through the next month has been sending my mood down the drain... the story of my life... heartaches has been a part of me for as long as i can remember... a big FUCK to that. I guess i just have to find a better way to release steam.... the ones i have now is clearly not working.... Waking up daily thinking about ways to get me out of this shithole has taken its toll on my body and soul...mmmm i wonder what could i do to rejuvenate both of em' ... mmmmm all in all....

Long absence....
It's been quite a while since my last posting... 4 weeks to be exact,sorry for that just been xtra occupied in my efforts to pay the bills come end of the month....(aren't everybody). I've been working in the same environment for the past 10 years..and have been thinking about taking a different career path for quite sometime..and have tried to do so via all my resources. Despite a cool environment, good boss, i'm still unhappy....i strongly believe it is due to the fact that i get paid peanuts. People use to say when you pay peanuts, you get monkeys, but in my organization i often find people who aren't getting peanuts for pay but are still monkeys... they say it's the same elsewhere but i can tell you these are a different breed of monkeys...that would surprise even the great ( late ) Steve Irwin. So i've made it my utmost priority to get out of this jungle asap.....via getting a new job, hopefully with no peanuts for pay.......

Friendship highway
This morning was somewhat an uneventful one till i got a call from someone who i have not been talking to for quite sometime...it's all this work related quarrels that put a halt to our, shall i say friendship... well i guess shit like this does happen once in a while... but you know what.. i'm a lover not a fighter..it may sound corny but that's just me. My temperament sometimes cloud my judgement up to point that i couldn't see something that is obvious... the workplace can be hell sometimes, especially if you're always backing down from potentially confrontational conversations with bosses and colleagues. All the hatred will then always explode in an unexpected manner witch sometimes even surprises yourself, to watch a situation degenerate right in front of your eyes. It's disheartening... but at the same time amazes me...

Birthday

The aftermath
It's been 2 days since i got back from the nest, and it's been a memorable eidul fitr,..despite being chocked up with the financial burden and missing my significant half seems to do little to dampen the celebrations....it is when you get back to your real world that it will start to take effect...the traffic was not too bad though. However, I did saw first hand how a car was overturn with the bloodied passengers still dangling motionless and being a Malaysian, had to slow down to look. Speed kills and we will never learn, we, meaning me included. Got into the office and logged in to my work e-mail and got shitloads of "work related" mail. Fark, here we go again.....

The Holidays
Like all the working class heroes out there in Malaysia, I will be joining the masses to embark on the annual "Balik Kampong" rush. And together with all of them, will be worried about having enough funds to get through this month of festivities. I'll just be there for 3 days before heading back to the city. Although i won't be updating this blog for a few days, it'll give me ample time to gather new gossips, stories of survival etc. To all of my comrades, drive safely and loosen up your middle finger. Till then, here's to a Happy Eidul Fitr.....

More about me
I was born 30 years ago in Alor Setar, Kedah. Being the second child of my working class hero parents. Went to school there, all in all a very happy childhood. I've started to notice the struggles for commoners to make ends meet since the early stages of my life...never thought much of it till it hit me in the face...some 15 years later...though most people would not like to talk about this subject, i find it interesting. Some of youse surely have gone through or been going through the struggles month in month out without complaining for years on end...but for me this is a medium for us to console each other so to speak... maybe in all this chaos we could find solace in each others comments or suggestions. Besides complaining and bitching about not earning enough money to go by, i also plan to blog about other things in life that's important to me at least, like food, job opportunities, my office, stupid politicians, sex etc....so ladies and gentleman, boys and girls...here it goes....
