My first FLY 21 May 2011

Last week, 15 May, my first fly, first step out to Philippine, Manila- Cebu. That is my first outstation trip with my new colleagues after one week I joined my new company. It is too fast for me to adapt everything, the environment and the people, I get nervous a night before fly, lost of the sense of security. our room's living room

the water park in the resort a nice path in resort

Thanks for the one sent me to airport and make me feel that at least there is someone accompany me to get there in the place that I’m not familiar too, and last give me some courage and calm me down. Thanks. the local bus, this is the nice one le, other in town a bit old >< place for our Gala Dinner on the beach

4 days over there, is a open-eyes trip for me, a lot that I never tried and seen before. The luxury hotel, the beautiful private beach, the food… there is a big gap between the world in our resort (Imperial Palace) with outside. Cebu, is the second largest city in Philippine, however we still can see a lot of area there still undeveloped, and feel very unsafe while go out from the resort. The gap of rich and poor is large, because in the shopping mall in Manila or Cebu, you still can see some local people spend there, the thing there totally not cheap at all, is same as KL price, one meal in shopping mall food court cost you around RM 8 to 10 after converting to RM (RM 7.3 = 100 Peso). beach

Know a lot of people there, but seem like I am too novice there. Before that my colleague tell me that he want to change the room with me because I been arranged to stay with other unknown people in the room, and that time I still wonder why I cannot. Now I realize that, I really too young, naïve… 25 years old is not young anymore, but it is if compare to others relatively, oldest one can up to nearly 70 years old. I admire the people there, all with nice background, achievement, speak well and dress smart. I choose to be quiet all the time, no knowledge no talk… >< they drink and smoke, I drink mango juice, and watch cartoon in the room.

Yesterday I get my new laptop from company, need to start my new leap from here, for the moment I’m satisfy with the current job.

Labour Day 2 May 2011

Labour day holiday, and tomorrow is the new day in my new company. Mind is a bit blank and calm. This is a quite interesting job if based on my impression during the time I attended the interview. Is a small company and it properly with around 20 staffs in that, that is totally different compare to WD. Is a small circle and perhaps there is more enjoyable working style with all the colleagues there. 

My department is newly formed with a team of 3 included me. It act as a pioneer team to penetrate the Autodesk market. The potential is there and I hope I can stay for longer time here, perhaps better grows for my career. Passion and enthusiasm are extremely important for me to success in my career. Expending my networking is crucial too, no more passive in work, proactive is what I need myself to be.

First day of working is the best day to ‘shape’ my own subsequence days characteristic. Gambate and good luck for me in new career.. phew. Thank for the watch and I will wear it in the new day, and days.
