I like to eat.
But now, I'm broke, all because of food.

Working
I guess when my time is completely occupied, there is nothing left for me to think about anymore. I realize that I cannot stop or rest for a moment, once there are time for me to do nothing, my brain will start to do unnecessary thinking. I suppose I prefer it to be like this, being occupied, being utilized, most of all, being purposeful. I survived, without internet for a timespan of two weeks. I realize that internet, ultimately is important but it doesn't mean as much anymore.
Because the purpose is not there anymore.
Until now, so many years down the road I came to realize that it was the people who make me want to go online, making me feel that going online is meaningful, because there will be people waiting for you and you are going to be a part of something.
But I guess it's not happening now.
Surprisingly, I took it quite well. And maybe it is all because of the internship or supervised work experience thing. For the 5 months duration, despite the fact that I am not liking this due to the whole fact that I have to wake up at 7am, and make sure I arrive there at 9am, and also the fact that Malaysia's public transportation's efficiency, which require me to be extremely patience with everything that is revolving around me, I think I have to get use to this "Working Zombie" lifestyle.
Oh well...

Shopping
It's been a long long while since I went shopping.
The fact that I am going for internship made me went for this shopping trip anyway. Luckily it's currently the Mega Sales period, which allows me to take advantage of those 70% discounts (almost) everywhere. Button down shirts and slacks, certainly not my style, after I looked into my closet and realize I don't have all those stuff at all. This shows how casual am I, eh-heh-heh.
Subang Parade, check.
Sunway Pyramid, check.
Oh shit, shoes!

Genting
Genting don't excite me as much already. Either it is because I am getting old, or maybe because I had been to better ones.
Woke up in awkward hours this morning to get ready for this day trip to Genting with Sharon, Calvin and Esther. Probably the last random long distance outings for now until my internship officially ends first. 6am and I felt like hell, got on to Sharon's car which was driven by Calvin. We attempted to go on LDP but the traffic jam would not allow us to do so. Then, we revert to NPE, paid toll, went through KL, and Wangsa Maju before entering the Gombak then Genting Highland's road.
We stopped at some mamak and ate breakfast. I ended with a VERY big plate of chicken fried rice and a VERY sweet Milo. Then, it was sugar rush all the way till we reach the final destination.
We headed to the outdoor theme park straightaway to avoid human jam which usually occur right after lunch. Finally get to play the go-kart, even though I got the slowest car that cannot accelerate properly. Then it was all the ones that will have a long queue later, like Cockscrew. After playing all those, we went and ate Pizza Hut. RM77 for 4 people set, talk about inflation and then we went to Ripley's Believe it or Not.
After that were Flume Ride and The Mining Train, then it was time to go.
We went for dinner at Sushi King, Sunway Pyramid after going through the traffic jam again at Federal Highway and now here I am, going to bed.
Good night, world.

Hello, G2
I made it.
At least into G2. The next 5 months is completely new to me though. Apparently during the interview, one of senior, Lee Tien saw me. I guess this internship ain't going to be that bad.
Well, because of the interview this morning, I can't sleep again. Went to bed at 1am, it seems like telling myself that "I need to sleep." doesn't help at all. Finally slept around 2am and woke up at 5.30am.
I left the house at 7am, thinking KTM and Monorail going to give me hell, it did, but at least I arrived 2 hours before I suppose to meet up with the HR department. The monorail station is right outside Wisma Genting, and I thought I would need to spend time to find it.
So, I spend those extra time at KFC eating some weird breakfast wrap.
Around 10am, I went back to the company and met the HR department. Then, the head of that department. Then, the person that I will work under for the next 5 months. I thought that it would be very difficult to enter, since this is a big company after all. I was surprised that all of them ask so specific questions and then granted me this opportunity to intern inside.
Yeah, and they were so surprised to see me interning for 5 months.
Do you smoke?
No.
Do you drink?
No.
Do you mind working under alcohol and tobacco?
No.
Most direct and specific interview ever.

Durian Buffet
I always wanted to go for one durian buffet.
And I did, just now, along with Sharon, Calvin and Esther. RM10 for kampung durians, eat all you can. According to the market survey analysts, they say in order to gain profit out of this, we need to eat 3 durians each and anything beyond that is pure profit.
So we ate 14. I think I would not want to see durian anymore until the next season.
Oh, tomorrow I have 2 interviews in a row. One in KL and one in Kelana Jaya. I hope I don't start to nose bleed in the interview room tomorrow.
