Fix You


When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse.

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream, down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down on your face
And I..

Tears stream, down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down on your face
And I..

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you.

Another beautiful morning





The company I'm working with right now offers us options to arrive at 9am or 10am. As I need almost 1.5 hr to reach my office by public transport, I always go for the latter session. However, yesterday I made I my mind to go earlier today, and so I leave my house at 7am in the morning.

It's another beautiful morning, where it's congested everywhere as it's the peak hour for working people to rush in order to step into their office doorstep on time. I managed to find myself a seat in the KTM (as the station near my house is still near to the terminal). I doze off in the train, and when I was wakened up by the standing people who are squeezing to find a place to stand, I saw a lady standing in front of me. I was in a big dilemma when I didn't know whether to stand up and give my seat to her or not, as I "suspect" she's pregnant, but I'm not so sure whether it's her.. tummy.. :| I'm sure it'll hurt very much to a female if people think you're pregnant while you're not. I spent the rest of the journey keep thinking whether to stand up.. and it's torturing. Ha. In the end, the train reached my destination before I made any decision. Hahaha..

I kept my pace slow as there's still time. I'm a weird species that will keep myself busy thinking stuff everytime, and that's why I'm not an observant people. But today I just left my mind empty, enjoying the music playing in my lil' bean, and enjoy everything I see. There're strange people everywhere. Short guy slinging a bag with a big teddy bear hanging on it over his chest made me wanna faint. Haha.

And so I strolled to my office, and enjoyed my warm breakfast there. It's a great start for another wonderful day. Hope you'll have a great day there too.

Live Updates



Well, it's been more than a month since my last post. Wanted to blog for a long time but I really find it hard to squeeze out an hour to really tidy up what has happened for the past month.

I think the thing that has changed most during this month is that I'm no longer a jobless graduate, with 24hour of free time to do whatever things I wanna do, go wherever places I wish to go. I got a job in KL, and I'm now able to earn my own livings, having full control of the amount I can spend, in other words I'll have to be responsible to manage my expenditure very well. There are so many items in my wish list, but finally I realize how wasteful I was when I was a student when now I'll have to earn all those money by my own hands. It's painful sometimes, but I think it's time to learn to be responsible to my ownself.

My first day of work started 2 days after my convocation ceremony. Gee, I started to work after I'm officially declared as a graduate. Haha. Not sure if there's short circuit somewhere inside me, I don't have much feeling on the convocation day. Maybe it's too hot and too tired for me to feel sentimental at that time, but I was very glad to meet back my dear buddies, my dear mates whom we have fought along the FYP war together back in those days, especially SK. Time flies, I still remember the time when we met during orientation week, and now we're wearing graduate robe. Glad that you graduated with flying colors. Knew you could do it. Proud of you, my pal.

See, there's too many things to say when I didn't blog for a long time. Now back to working life. Dream company should always live in dreams. Ha. And I just realize that dream companies aren't as good as I expected. So just let them live in dreams. Haha.. Basically I think I've fall in love with my job right now. Haha. Although the workload is quite heavy sometimes, especially for the past few weeks, where we have to work until 10pm everyday including weekends, but I'm enjoying it. For me, job satisfaction and the working environment are the most important factors to choose a job. I enjoy working in this place very much, where I've been placed in a considered relatively new team in the company. There are a total number of 5 people including me in the team, and what I like most is how the atmosphere in the team. Everyone works as a team, helping each other to solve problems. As a new bird there, I'm like a blank page, knowing nothing about their system, and everyone of them taught me patiently. Grateful.

We work using J2EE standard, which is one of the field I hoped I can work in, but there's still lotsa things for me to learn. I was so 'lucky' to get into the company at the time when they have the chance to roll out their product in China. So basically we're rushing for the deadline for the past 2 weeks. Yet it was a great opportunity to boost up my speed to learn things and get to help them solving minor things. It's the time when I get to know them more (Still hope to know more.. :P). I really enjoy working in a team with high team spirit.

Of course there are drawbacks for keeping myself in the highest focus level everyday. My eyebags are dark and big now, and pimples started to come out from nowhere.. *Gulp* Mum, I need help.. I slept for around 6 hours per day, and ate dinner at midnights. Oh~ what a bad lifestyle. My tummy made herself visible again. :( And my palm sweats nowadays. Shit. I think I'm getting weaker.

So I should go to bed now. :D Take a good rest, and enjoy another brand new day tomorrow. Life goes on, and I hope I will achieve my planned targets. :)

p/s: Granny is getting better now, although she still complains that her fractured bone aches, and I find her legs are getting weaker. But she's still strong enough to scold us sometimes. Haha..
