I hate to admit it, but my blogging moments have been falling short these days. The more I get used to working life in the office, the harder it seems for me to keep my blog up-to-date. But I'll try to do my very best to recount the noteworthy experiences and get you up to date.

Last two weeks ago, I spent my long weekend in Singapore and Indonesia with my friends. See my other post for the details.

Last week and this week, after I came back from a wonderful vacation, my tasks have been piled up. Some issues occurred and need to resolve ASAP. Some urgent tasks that need to work on ASAP, and a couple of emails here and there. I've been so busy these days trying to finish all the tasks in my plate which means, rendering OT.

But aside from work, I also manage to find some time for myself. I was supposed to meet one of my friends who happen to visit KL this week. But for whatever reason, I still haven't heard from him. The last time we talked was when he's about to go to the airport going here. Since then, no words or calls from him. Anyway, I hope he’s enjoying his stay here. =)

The other night I went out with my Belgian friend Eric and had some drinks. At first, we planned to go to Qbar inside Westin Hotel. But late that night he texted me if we can go to Asian Heritage Road instead, just beside Sheraton Hotel where chic and trendy bars can be seen. Also, because he has a friend there that will be dancing that night so we could see and meet her.

We first went to Savanah bar. The place was dim and dull. He said when he went there one Friday night it was dancing hip and loud. But when we went inside, it was so dreary. The music was all Lionel Richie collections! Haha. Quite romantic actually, but for two guys who want to unwind, isn't that kinda weird? erk! To be honest, I almost fell asleep with the music. After we're done with our glasses of alcohol each; and after seeing me bored and just playing with my drink, he suggested going somewhere else. Since it’s almost 12am, we decided to go to The Loft KL where his girl friend will be dancing. This place was what we were looking for! loud, hip, and cool. There's a DJ playing dance music; people are casual and trendy; and the place is simple yet lively. He introduced me to his girl friend Kellyn. She's ¾ Chinese and a quarter Thai. Mind you guys, she's so beautiful and sexy. Oh well, just according to Eric, she was just the Miss Malaysia Fitness 2003. Beat that!, huh?! Anyway, we talk and dance while drinking. And when we finished our bottle of beers and hard liquors, we decided to head back home.

Though I was tipsy and drank, I managed to go home safe hehe. I had so fun that night and glad to meet new acquaintance in her. Hope to see her again soon.

Last night, one of our managers and a friend from our previous company, Sir Rom, was here in Malaysia for a training. For his last night, we went out for a dinner. Anai, Gen, Lawrence, Leo, Rom, his friend Emerson (who left the place after dinner to meet their other friend), and I had our dinner at Bongsen, a Veitnamese Restaurant in KLCC Suria Mall. Late that night, Issa also showed up. As usual, we never failed to take nice pictures all together. We sat down somewhere outside Petronas and talked about anything we can talk about that night.

Around 11pm, we separated ways. Sir Rom, Emerson, and the their German friend took the service van back to their hotel; Issa and Lawrence went straight away home in PJ; Leo, stayed there and waited for his housemates; whilst Anai, Gen, and I went straight to the cinema to watch Spiderman 3. I don't wanna write anything about the movie because it's not worth it. I didn't like it much so better not write any comments. Hehe

Alex, a friend of mine from Shanghai, China is on a merge of deep crisis these past days. He was so disturbed and restless. I spoke with him in the phone everyday to console him; to give him my countless moral support; to encourage him to hang on and strive to survive. I don't want to discuss the details of his problems as I don't think doing so would help him surpass the crisis. I think I have done my part as a concerned friend and it's really up to him how he will handle the situation. To be honest, I am worried because I don't know where and how he is right now. Last night, Greg, a friend of Alex, called me and asked me to call Alex immediately. He said that he is in terrible condition and was about to breakdown. But I was in the middle of doing something urgent in my work so I failed to call him. Early this morning, I tried to call him again but his number is already out of service. I am really bothered right now. I just hope that he's already ok and was able to find some help. I just really hope that nothing bad happened to him… May God guide him and give him enough strength to hang on…
