Thousand words~*

So pictures say a thousand words. So here i got beribu-ribu lemon of thousands word.
Ni pictures masa journey dari KL-Houston. Overall flight hour termasuk masa transit is 30 hours. Bertolak jam 6.00pm petang 6hb Feb and sampai 5.00am 7hb Feb. Nampak macam less than 12 hours tapi actually overall flight hours termasuk masa transit is 30 hours. 25 jam atas kapal terbang, 5 jam jumlah masa transit kat Hong Kong and LA. Yup.. Jangan byk komplen...

Miss you~*

Hai guys..

so basicly dah sampai Louisiana dah.. dah seminggu dah kat USA ni.. sampai louisiana ni sabtu lepas and sini dah hari kedua aku buat kerja buruh kat sini. seminggu awal tuh kat houston. gosh... bykkkkk sgt menda yang jadi tapi tak larat nak cerita semua sebab penat giler... guys kat sini kerja 7 hari seminggu.. good thing i'm gonna have it just for 3 weeks je. imagine they had it going for almost 3 months now... so i'm not complaining for working 7 days a week or having my toilets just around the corner in the bush or that i just got lost in the forest and i feel so blessed just to see a cable laying down in the swamp? or that i caught into those nasty muds in the swamp that i had to do some clay facial scrub? hah! gotcha! only kidding about the facial stuff but ain't kidding on the lost-in-the-forest stuff. yup. sucks. i took pics during those lost moments and got panicked second. those guys walk really fast in those woods and then suddenly, they fade away in the woods of swamps. so i just walk following my guts and finally saw those cables the guys put onto the ground, feel like kissing those cables. and nope. no snakes nor alligator i found. maybe tomorrow... i'm going shooting for tomorrow. playing with dynamites and stuffs. yeay.

these first 2 days in luoisiana wasn't that nice except that i met with bunch of cool guys. they dont get much of females around so they were totally nice to us, not letting us doing those dirty jobs too much. so we just sat in the battery check room and play around with the maps and data, same stuff like we had back in the office. i was hoping for some more adventure on the fields so they promise to have us there tomorrow. can't wait. yeah.. am playin dynamites tomorrow in swamps. yahoo dot com~! but that one thing that i was afraid of, its damn damn cold down here. i dont know how much but i had some asap coming out from my mouth. gosh.. thats like living in a fridge. except much colder. and if i ever come back to malaysia, i wont be complaining about how hot it is. am beginning to miss those hot burning sun on my skin.

ok lah... seriusly penat giler. i'm beginning to eat in quite a small quantity now. its like having my leftover dinner for lunch in the next day. and more leftover, i had it for dinner too. these people over here eat in a large portion. and i mean really huge portion. but its kinda ok with me cause it saves my money despite its kinda cheaper here. people around here are friendly and more polite in the roads compare those in malaysia. (yeah.. having to be one of the worst traffic accidents in the world, shame on you malaysia) but not everything here are nice when you kinda have those creepy and apa-kau-pakai-kat-kepala kinda look to me. they even had me screened in a special aisle and had my palm checked to see whether i have some sort of explosive i bring on over back in the airport in Los Angelas. its ridiculoius but thats what i call discrimination. just because i wear a scarf doesnt make me a bad person. gosh... i'm gettin use to it now and i dont get that much of stare now. takpe2. esok i pakai purdah, they will give the stare like i'm a terrorist. oh thats gonna feel good, maybe they'll just send me back home then. haha. kidding. sorry dah lewat mlm ni, karut ntah apa2 ntah.

ok lah, i better publish this entry before i fall asleep with my laptop on top of my lap like last nite. its really tiring and i had to get up early tomorrow morning for a safety briefing. just like the usual days for these guys. and did i told you that they had to be there exactly at 6.00am? and thats everyday, 7 days a week. yup. not good. and lucky me, its just for 3 weeks only.

my pillow's calling. goodnite everybody. Goodnite Malaysia.. Miss you.. a lot.

Chow dulu~*

Ok korang. Petang esok bertolak. Nervous giler lak tetiba rasa sebab dunno what to expect. Lebih2 lagi i'm the only malay muslim girl yang pergi. Tempat org jauh lak tuh. 2 menda aku takut - sejuk giler & makan tak sedap. Habis lah. Tapi challenge lar kan. No pain No gain kata omputih. Kalau pergi sebab belajar, aku tak rasa cuak sgt sebab dah boleh pikir nak gi jalan2. Tapi biler pergi sebab kerja, aku rasa takut aku tak perform as they expected. Macam aku cakap lah, pergi obersea sebab kerja ni lain macam sikit. Heh~

So aku target subuh esok sampai lah Houston. Duduk seminggu kat sana sebelum pergi Louisiana for 3 weeks field assignment. Pastu balik dari Louisiana, aku duduk bertapa kat Houston balik for 2 and half months. Cuak but will survive. (tiba2 semacam terdengar suara Hanot nyanyi lagu I Will Survive by Destiny Child. harhar)

Ok lah korang. Pape kang aku update lagi. Aku chow dulu...

Pics of a thousand words~*

Yeah.. dah boleh upload gambar dari digicam baru. Cikai punyer je. Kalau beli mahal2 kang aku ralat nak bawak masuk hutan. Sayang nak tangkap gambar dalam swamp, takut terkena air. Heh~ Buat cukup syarat boleh tangkap gambar, then post masuk blog, bos puas hati tengok, sudaaa...

Ha, ni lah pemandangan KL dari tingkap ofis aku kat KLCC tingkat 56. Waktu siang. Aku memang suka skycrappers, so bagi aku ni dah best lah ni. Agak2 ngantuk, aku cuci mata lah tengok KL dari atas. Tapi mostly aku pi surau tido jap sebab ubat mengantuk adalah tidur, tak kira lah luas mana pun pemandangan aku tengok KL. Heh.

Kl view in day

Tengok KL waktu siang ni boleh buat kita jadi weather caster tak bertauliah. Sebab boleh detect area mana hujan tak hujan. Budak2 ofis aku yang bawak motor ni tengok luar dulu sebelum balik, detect area rumah diorg banjir ke tak. Heh~

Tapi pada aku, paling best adalah waktu malam. Senang cakap, awesome lah. Orang kata aku pekerja rajin sebab stay back ofis. But basicly, aku memang tunggu pemandangan ini.. dah tengok puas2 baru balik. Aku memang suka bintang. Suka skycrappers. Biler digabungkan, dapat lah pemandangan seperti dibawah ini. Marvellous!

KL view at nite

Sementara tunggu tu, aku update lah blog. Rajin kan aku? harhar.

Dimensi beg~*

Aku masih di pejabat lagi. Niat nak meng-hapdate-kan blog. Dah cuti 3 hari, sakan aku membeli makanan. Nak bawak gi sana sebab aku dah ditakutkan dek member aku “nanti kau kebulur kat sana” walaupun pada niat asalnya, takde langsung makanan dalam list barang-nak-bawak-masuk-beg aku. Tapi kini, beg paling besar aku adalah beg makanan. Heh~

Aku bawak 2 beg. 3 beg actually coz beg kecik masuk beg paling besar dan beg kecik tu isi makanan. Pastu masih ada ruang tepi2 beg besar tu, aku nak borong makanan lagi. Maggi, sardine, tuna (sebab tuna sana tak sedap kata mereka), Brahim’s dan 2 botol kicap. Nak gi Carefour. Eh silap2. Nak gi Giant sebab Carefour kena diboikot. Pastu tadi aku check balik jisim yang dibenarkan utk setiap beg yang perlu di bawa iaitu tidak melebihi 23kg per bag. Setakat ni, both beg masing2 tak lebih dari 20 kg lagi, so boleh sumbat lagi tapi yang baru aku perasan, beg pun dia sukat dimensi2 lah pulak. Ada limited dimension yang dibenarkan. Aiseh.. leceh betol larrrr~~~ Aku dah lah bawak gedabak beg ni, kalau terlebih dimensi? Nak kena punggah balik brg2 tu masuk dalam apa? Aku bawak masuk dalam beg plastic je lah, konfrem diorg tak boleh kira total dimensi beg plastic tu. Harhar.

Aku dah gemuk. Naik 2 kg tak sampai 2 bulan. Orang tengok aku “tak lah gemuk sangat”, “ ok lah ni,nak kecik mana lagi”, “ mane ada gemuk, kalau awk gemuk, habis tu, akak ni ape?” dan “awak makan banyak mana, badan tak naik pun” tapi hakikatnya aku dah mula rasa berat badan. Tempat kerja baru aku ni lebih byk aku berjalan sebab aku redah LRT, redah masuk KLCC dan panjat tangga instead of panjat escalator. If aku panjat escalator pun aku make sure aku berjalan naik mcm naik tangga coz aku tak nak bina lemak dgn berdiri sajor menanti escalator bawak aku naik sampai atas. Tapi aku tetap gemuk biler saja mak aku cakap “ eh kaklong, ummi nampak awk makin chubby” dan dot dot dot. Dalam dunia, mak aku sorg je yang cakap jujur coz yang lain aku faham percakapan mereka bertapis. Paling2 pun ayat yang hampir2 jujur is ”nampak berisi sikit lah”. Ok. Topic klise tapi apa aku nak cakap kat sini ialah aku target turun dlm 10 kg once balik dari Houston sebab bakal kebulur kat sana! Harhar~

Tapi dengan dimensi beg yang plg besar PENUH berisi makanan sahaja, mampu kah aku? Waaaaa…..
