Oh what a long day..

it was a slow day today. sunday. i can't get any sleep till 4pm this evening. i tried sleeping just before church, around 7-ish am but i ended up finishing the last round of Blockbreaker on my mobbie.. and bout just before 9am, my family and i were heading for the church. it was an hour or so and i was really really looking forward to the comfort of my bed and the cool wind from the fan directly to my body when mummy broke the news.

''Father's coming over for family blessing."

here's how i see it.. good: yeay blessing for me too since i'm still waiting for a reply from company P, bad: there goes my bedtime. oh....!!! so then, of course Evan have that 'look' on her face but Rev Fr Peter Hwang came over and chat a little showed off some of his pictures during his priestly ordination, then.. the blessing. i can't really catch his words during the blessing (you just hardly hear what they're mumbling about during blessings anyway) but i heard 'job'. hahaha! yes yes.. and that goes to this;

i got a call from company S. ;)

but.....................................

company S: Are you sponsored by company P?
me: Yea.. but..
company S: Ooo.. it's hard you know. how many years are you bonded with them? do you have to pay them back? are they gonna call you??
me: Ha? er.. 10 years and..
company S: Waaa! 10 years ah.. aiyo. course my company is doing .... (yada yada yada.. she went on for about 10 minutes explaining what her company is doing, what the job's about lalala)
me: Oo.. interesting lah.. but that's why la, i can't give you any confirmation yet since i am still suppose to be looking forward to their call. but what if..
company S: (she just won't give that chance!) Like this like this.. this is a specialist job so if possible i want you to come for the interview and join my company (waaa her company.. the manager herself call me meh??) but you need a black and white from company P to make sure they can release you first. if can then i'll call you in for the interview. where are you now?
me: Marudi
company S: ha?
me: Sarawak.
company S: Ooo.. so can you confirm with company P?

then... i had my time explaining how i was suppose to wait till 6 month then i'm entitle to get out of the bond with, of course, some agreement or something like that la. i'm yet to read that bundle of contract. but finally she said it so nicely, better than i could ever thought, "Please let me know right after you get any news about the release from company P then i'll arrange something and you can come to the interview anytime..."

owww... now at lease i feel like my market naik sikit. hahaha! ;p

but, yeah. after i hang up it was back to reality. sure got something ni.. specialist, high end telecommunication contracts, tension lines.. pay? stress work level? oh..~! it left me thinking there for a while, not knowing what to do next or what to think. at that moment, mummy's text came in to pick her and Rev Fr at one of the church member's house.

on the way back from that i told mummy.

"But how if company P call? aiyaa... just wait la.."

...

"Later you work you no time to rest. dno la. just wait la. until company P call. they sure call one.."

...

Reach home. still speechless. i have no money, no options, nothing to do at home besides eat sleep and shit. back to nothing. i went up, looked at my unpacked beg. sigh.. maybe it's time to unpack my stuff after 2 months, with no new or any signs that i'm flying anywhere. it's about time. so i spent the next 2 hours emptying my closet and packing all the old-unwanted-dirty-dried-up-but-still-can-use clothes (which were mine of course and to be donated to the kampungs up river), and arranged mine in. it was 4pm.

Exhausted and nothing else to do, i glance into the mirror and saw a panda. went to shower, wrapped my hair with the towel and grabbed the latest book i'm reading 'The Secret', and head to my parents room. it's cooler there. ;p

I don't think i even finished a page when i was already dreaming bout.. wait.. i can't remember. anyway, by the time i woke up it was already 10pm and yeah, Evan was there with that look again telling me Amai's outside sleeping. I don't know why but my friends would have just bumped in and cuddled in the other side of the bed. my dad? hmm... guess we ain't that close.

I went back to my room, trying to continue sleeping but my tummy was already singing some punk-rock tunes. by this time, there's nothing on the kitchen table so the only option was to eat out. too lazy to take a shower (it was freakin' cold), my sisters and i went out and tapau food. drove back, eat and watch some tv while waiting for Evan finish using the pc.

then now, here i am, and it's only 12 midnight. can a day go any slower than this???

thank you if you read this. oh what a long boring day, don't you think?
