Melaka Trip

About 2 weeks ago, my colleagues organized a little trip to Melaka. We were lucky to have the organizer (claimed as Land Asia Agent) who was familiar with Melaka/Seremban and made our trip fun and enjoyable! He packed our 2 day schedule with nearly 20 places to go. But of course in the end we just went to a few of them according to everyone's preference.

Our 1st stop in Melaka was FOOD :P~ Let me present to you, Melaka's famous chicken rice ball...

Actually I think the chicken rice ball was just ok. Nothing special. But the chicken was really good. Oh man, this picture alone is enough to make my mouth watery! This shop was near Christ Church Melaka. And that's where we went next...

The gang...

Then we met this friendly uncle who's willing to let us take some pictures with his trishaw.

And of course we went to A Famosa

and Jonker street where I finally bought my Mahjong set (Muahahah! Nono I'm not a gambler.)

Besides that, we went to St John Fort and Mini Malaysia too. My mom told me she brought me there b4.. but I just couldn't recall. Oh well, at least now I'm sure I have been there! :)

Secrets

We all have our own hidden sides. Be it a bad habit, or some bad things you did or thought about. We all have them, don't we?

I have to admit, that makes up a part of my life. Afraid of how people might look at me. Afraid of what they would say about me...... Ironically, as much as I am afraid to let people know of my secrets, I am curious to know who would be able to accept them.

Secrets. How much I hate to have them, how much I hate to keep them. Everyday it pulls me away from my close friends. Causes me to lie or shy away if they ask. Think about it. How could you lie to your close friends? Would they be considered as close friends if they are close friends based on lies? When they don't even know the real you? When I keep my friends out, I couldn't even share the pain or the happiness I gain from it. Such a horrible feeling. Its totally not worth it.

Nevertheless, I'm still doing it.

Tired mind

I'm tired. I feel sleepy. And yet... I'm still at my work place. What time is it now? 8.41pm to be exact! Urgh.. I have to stay back late to wait for my boss to finish his meeting to discuss something with him about an equipment with a vendor... blah blah blah... I know I shouldn't be complaining... As the vendor told me just now, "Its a good opportunity to learn something new!" But..... but.. but.... Somehow I'm just not so anxious about it.

Recently my senior had been telling me about his work and interview experiences. I guess its suppose to prepare and push me to learn new things. But, I don't know, maybe its the way he said it, he's actually freaking me out! Telling me how difficult it is to get a job outside, what kind of technical questions they ask in interviews, questions about technology I haven't even heard about before! I know I should be constantly upgrading my knowledge. But now, it seems that the network field is too large for me to grasp.

Another colleague was telling me that he's doing a course in 1 month, that normally take people to do in a year! Every morning he comes to office at 4am just to get a quiet space to study! And now, he's getting credited for his efforts.

Yeah, no pain no gain right? I would need to work hard to show my qualities to my boss, constantly upgrade myself, 'do cow do horse' in hopes to meet his expectations and hope for increment.

Well, don't get me wrong. I still love my job alot. I love networking. Plus my company is sending me to a training next week! Woohoo!

But sometimes I'm thinking... is networking the thing for me? Damn! I'm so fickle minded!
