First Blog 2006
Its 2006, its the New Year. I’m suddenly jobless, but strangely enough i’m not freaking out about it. For unknown reasons, i’m actually excepting the whole situation in a positive light. Currently i’m not doing a single thing productive to solve my current situation. But instead of looking desperately for available job vacancies, i’m actually out and enjoying myself with friends and completely forget about my current situation.
Guess what i’ve been doing in the last 10 days? I’ve celebrated my Birthday/Christmas. I’ve celebrated New Year 2005/06 with buddies with dinner at Hugz SS15 and walking all over Subang Jaya a few minutes before New Year (it was just brainless fun).
Then to celebrate, we played Warcraft Frozen Throne till 6 a.m.! Hanging out and having fun…
I guess what i’ve been trying to do is to ignore the ‘bad-hand’ that i’ve been dealt right after my Birthday. AFTER MY BIRTHDAY! Imagine being called into the boss office and getting "I have to let you go" speach. Wonderful Birthday Present don’t you think (note the sarcasm)? I know its not his fault or anything. Its just the unstable economy and bad luck on the agency’s part. I’m not complaining or anything (well, maybe a bit) but I had a great 9 months working in MagicMakers. Hey, meeting/seeing celebrities, big shots and ministers of the country, help organize and supervise big events, meeting and making new friends and working on iMac G4’s and G5 Titanium machines with devilishly fast (and free) internet connection! Its a great place to work. Its too bad that their just having a bad streak.
Sometimes I think my positive personality, and habit of thinking things through before doing anything, is causing me to take the whole jobless thing in stride? I mean, i’m literally NOT freaking out about it. I’m more like "oklah, whatever. I’ll just look for another job", kind of attitude. For those who know me well, do you think i’m too relaxed about the whole situation?
I remember Gary saying something about it but I can’t seem to remember what it is. Something about me being an earth element or wood element or something. My head was abuzz with Warcraft action so I can’t seem to recall what was said. Should I bum-at-home for a few days? Or should I be hectically running all over Damansara, Bangsar, Petaling Jaya and Kelana Jaya looking for a job?
I’ve always had friends asking me for my opinions and i’ve always been truthfully and straight-forward with them. Look things on the bright and positive side. But in the end i’ve always told them, "the bottom line is, you yourself still have to make the final decision and not me or anybody else." Its strange that i’ve always been around for my closest friends to help them and giving my comments and opinions. Heheh, its like consultation sessions and the payment is buy me lunch or something. Not that i’m a busybody or anything, I’m just lending a friendly ear, listening to friends problems and anguish, just being there as a friend and if need be a shoulder to cry on (girls only).
There I go again, rambling to you all when you have better things to do than reading my sorry story. To actually say this at the end of my Blog defeats the purpose of trying to stop you from reading it, right? Oh well, too late now…
Anyways, thanks for sparing a few minutes to listening to my rambling Heart.
Nuf’ Said. LaterZ.

As long as you’re not running out of cash, I don’t see the problem with slacking around. Heck, you probably need the break :p I will probably be joining you on the job search soon, as certain recent developments at work has ruined the office environment that made leaving any earlier such a difficult choice. Now it isn’t anymore, which I suppose is a good thing if you look at it that way
