Malacca – Historical City – Full of My Life Stories
When the person in charge of the department is on leave, I faced challenges and problems. I worked hard to finish up all the tasks came from no where and ad hoc requests from all the clients. Anyhow, I managed to pull it through for three days without supervision after merely 3 days in the new department. The big boss called me so frequent until making me feel so lost about where I should start with. Tasks kept piling like old newspapers collected by the old newspaper lorry drivers. Oh god, I felt like I wanted to run away and escaped from the real world. Please God, give me more time to finish my task and fresh air to breathe!
The trip to Malacca was the one I was longing for for so long. I really need to get away from the work and find my beloved long lost friends. Ainie and me raced in Daytona to reach Larkin Terminal. I was the last one to got on the bus and Malacca here I come! KEM!!! I gave her a big tight hug once I saw her! I felt to happy to see her in Malacca and to my surprise, they are no longer using the old bus station, now it’s Melaka Sentral. We headed to supper (which practically is my dinner). Well I was too busy to eat before the bus trip. Can you believe it, last minute still got client wanted to meet up in airport. Ok work aside, I had great time in Malacca with all my uni mates.
Second day in Malacca, we went to the first day 1st session after dim sum breakfast with Kem and Alban. My ex-housemates – Wee Jun and Hoong Lee and last but not least Hoey Yee my dearie roomie for two years were graduating on that session. I was trying hard to get them and once I met them, we went crazy with the yelling…. “AAAAHhhhhhhh…. JEN JEN…. AHHHHH…. HOEY YEE….” A big hug and kiss from Hoey Yee. I missed them so much! I really miss time we spent together. Roses for them and grads soft toy of course. I was sweating like hell because it’s darn hot out there at Dewan Seri Negeri. Met up with a lot of old friends that we didn’t contact for ages there. Everyone seemed to be still the same.
Lunch time in Shakey’s Pizza with my old puchong gang – Kem, Tammy, Alban, Alan, Ah Fu and Jasraj Sigh. When everyone talked about their job and work, “Jen, you really wasted your talent. First class in IT but never make used of your knowledge. You can do better in other company! Come back to KL lah” Sigh… I thought about that too, they are doing very well now and know clearly their career path and direction, but as for me, been rotating to different departments until I have lost interest in anything on earth. I feel I want to vomit! Help me!
Second session, a colleague of Kem was graduated. Then we were heading to an unexpected trip (a bonus) to Muar! Alban’s hometown. He has to exchange his proton iswara manual car with his mom so that his brother can practice it for driving! Hahaha… failed twice on “naik bukit” test. I got to eat Muar Famous Bak Kut Teh and Muar most famous Otak Otak! It’s very tasty….. yummy…. With the sweaty and sticky body, we reached her place at 11.30pm. Kem is moving to a new place which is just a block away. The house condition was great, making me feel horrible about my own house! hahaha… well no picture attached here. Please use your imagination.
Third day in Malacca, we had baba nyonya food in town and went shopping in Mahkota Parade after 4 years never stepped in the place. Every single corner of the place reminded me of the old memories I had with my uni mates and unihostel housemates in Alpha year. The most naïve days I had in uni! We would take bus to shop there, walk around the town and had great memories embedded in my mind. I miss them all! I wish I can go back to those days and have fun again. Our humble unihostel 20 always is the place where we gathered and chit chat till the next morning- the best contributor for the chit chatting topics fell under Miss Lim Jen Jen! I would talk non stop till the next day, yes, I had the stamina. But well, now no more kaki already. I’m all alone in the empty house on my own. I have tried to talk to my wall, but no feed back from it! How sad…..
We rushed to 4th session of the convocation and without delay have to rush back to Melaka Sentral for my bus at 6pm. I got scolding from the bus agent as I was late and requested for 20 minutes of waiting. Thank god they are kind enough to wait for me. Else I’ll be on emergency leave today! hahahah….. It was terrible that I had to sit at the last seat behind the bus wit the jerkiest effect ever. It made me feel even tired and dizzy! Here comes the worst part, I alighted at Skudai for public bus to airport and before approaching Senai Industrial Area, I was the only girl there. Once it stopped at factory workers’ quarters, all the indons got in the bus, roughly 35 of them with everyone staring and looking at me. I was terrified and worried but luckily it was reaching airport already. I quickly got down the bus and headed home.
I feel sad that I’m sending myself back to the dungeon again…… Is this the life I want? Am I happy with my current situation?
