I am fustrated.
Ed* and Gabby* have issues and they just work them out and move on.
meanwhile i still find myself struggling to trust people around me.
and then what?
through blind dumb luck he gets everything just like that.
i dont want to begrudge him his good fortune, but shit just
comes so easy to him. he never has to work for anything.
and i try not to fault him for it. good for him.
but it just throws into contrast how little
ive got to show for my life.
Cunts!

just when i think its all barred..
there is one thing, matter of fact its the only thing that im clinging on to my 'social network' has also been blocked by the servers of PRC and i have no full access to it.
Facebook has been the only thing that kept me 'close' to my family and friends but lately i can only view but not post/comment pictures and other people`s comment whatsoever. i cant even post up pictures, cant view friends, cant add friends, cant anything but only able to view through a proxy website which feels like reading a book without my glasses. or a better metaphor.. having virtual sex. you get the idea but thats all you get out of it.
..which leaves me high and dry. and im blogging thru a proxy server too, fyi. In mainland, i got no direct access to facebook (view only), blogs (lucky only need to view) and youtube (view also cannot coz the stupid java script shits).
Being in China is so bored and stressful with work at the same time. Luckily i just had the longest best 27 days this year, relaxing back in Malaysia last month. It was awesome, it was better than awesome, its fucking awesome. For once i hardly work, i wake up late, have brunch with friends and best of all, good food. I was pampered to the point where tears almost weep through my eyes. I had a 2 full page list of foods-to-eat and i cleared 95% of it, and some even doubled.
This trip, i managed to;
1 - attend my best friends wedding
2 - delivered my speech
3 - quality time with close ones
4 - ate all the good food i can think of
5 - catch up with close friends
6 - catch up with nieces and nephew in Singapore
7 - attend my sister`s wedding
8 - attend another 2 more old friends wedding
9 - play a good game of futsal
10 - just relax like how a holiday would actually feel like
11 - spring cleaned my klang house
12 - catch up with my Mum, my real mum
13 - get some personal issues done
14 - watched Transformers, in a cinema!
15 - watched Ice Age, in 3D, in a cinema, on a date, in Singapore, with a flu!
All this while, i cant find one good reason to go back to Malaysia ever again (after all the shits that has happened throughout my life) but after this trip, i just need to step back more and look at the bigger picture coz all i need is a few close friends to make a big difference.

9 - She likes to look thorough my phone details. I like the insecurity.
10 - I like to cook, she likes to eat but doesnt want to do the dishes.
11 - Im very very particular, she`s the total opposite.
12 - She like to club. sigh.
13 - She read magazines. I read hers. She dont like.
14 - i read novels. I make her read novels. also she dont like.
15 - We both like to sleep on the left side of the bed.
16 - She likes her M&M`s mixed!
17 - Im a morning person, she sleep in the morning.
18 - I got no problems with authority. She does!
19 - She likes me formal. I like my jeans and pasar malan tee.
20 - I like her short hair. Her`s panjang manjang.

today: content
i feel funny today. i feel delicate. i feel idle. i feel all alone, in a country filled with strangers. i am not sad and i cant find one good reason to feel happy. no matter where i am now, where i`ll be tomorrow, or where im going to be in the future.. im just a person living in a suitcase. someone once told me that im emotionless, a person without expression. that im weird. i act weird. talk weird. i miss those days. least back then there was actually someone that noticed me.
today.. im soulless.
today.. im soulless.

a fool`s fooled?
Today, of all days i got to make a decision that i could hardly resist.
It all started with a bright, cool breezy almost perfect day. I was as usual with my hoodie, signature 2B pencil parked on my left ear and holding one too many files, one leg kicking.. until i was called in for a meeting by both China and Australia bosses.
Everything was going well, talked about work stuff then out of the sudden, they told me that i got promoted, sort of... again. I am now currently the sales manager, marketing manager and the new addition; brand manager. How...the fug did that just happened? How the fug am i supposed to juggle all of them, at the same bloody time? Now i am not just a manager, I'm the manager.
The title is getting too much, the workload is as much as the title sounds.
Fine. I think i can handle a little bit of a challenge.. but;

The title is getting too much, the workload is as much as the title sounds.
Fine. I think i can handle a little bit of a challenge.. but;
- with this position comes big sacrifice, which means i have to renew my contract (by the way is due this June) for another couple more years.
- because of the above, i can`t go back to Melbourne, as planned. According to boss, i have to put that thought on hold for the time being.
- my best friend is gonna be so heartbroken.
- i is gonna be so heartbroken, literally.
The tricky part of all this is;
- if i did good in this position, means it gives me less chance to get back to Australia;
- but if i fug this up, they might have the impression that I'm incompetent, maybe fired;
- if i do it for the sake of job wise, i don't get satisfaction of feeling good coz I'm a perfectionist!
but the only good side of it is;
- more salary.
- that's about it..
and the down side..
- stay back, living in this horrible country, all alone.
- 2/3 time spent on work
- bored
- all of the above, again and again.
I should have rejected this position when i had the chance to, but the temptation of being in control. Argh darn, i just got sucked into the world full of conspiracies.
I think i deserve a drink to myself, to congratulate, drown my sorrows away and cry myself to bed again at the same time.
I feel like shit and this is the saddest day of my life and i wish it was all just a prank on April Fool`s Day.
Question of the day: What would you do?
By the way, did i mentioned that im a junior graphic designer for wheels as well. fugken awesome!

my speech
Today is one of my happiest and saddest day. Its my best friend marrying my other best friend and i am at to the other corner of the world, in the office, typing this. I hate not to be there to see everything, to hold her hand and tell her that im proud of her and im really happy for her. I know i never said this out loud before but i love you very much. everyone of you there. I miss all of you so much my heart aches.
Not being able to be there for her feels like ive failed being her best friend, and the worse part of all, i feel so bad i got no one to point my fingers at. Here is the speech ive prepared since last year..
"First of all, i would like to take this opportunity to thank the NG and Law family for everything. For those of you who don’t know me, I’m Justin, one of Racheal’s closest friends for over 15 years, usually a partner in crime.
Anyway, we have been friends since primary school.
Racheal and I have done many things together during our almost life-long friendship. Over the years we practically do the same thing together, we've even tried to skip school, tried to pick up girls together..
She likes to hurt, make jokes and laugh at you then tease you whenever she can.
Ever since i knew her, she`s been giving me nothing but headaches.
And that is why i had to introduce her to Adrian because he has the highest tolerance level than anyone else I’ve known and i think she is the luckiest person to have Adrian as her other half.
He takes all her punching, kicking, nagging, yelling and all without a single complain.I sometimes wonder why.
I can’t complain because she cooks good food for me.
They’ve now been together for a very long time, and I can’t think of a single couple more perfect for each other.
She brings out the good side in him, which takes a lot of effort; and Adrian, you`ve seen her worst, and you survived.
Now i would like to invite you all to be upstanding, raise you glasses and join me in a toast to Racheal and Adrian, because I think they were made for each other.
Ladies and Gentlemen: a toast to the bride and groom"
