to be, or not to be?
Alot of things have been happening of late.
I'm finally getting my IT project underway, meeting serena in 45mins gosh I hope it'll turn out ok. Was just going through the document templates yesterday and I am starting to freak out cause I dunno some of the terms they're describing! Shit I shoulda taken Project Management. But I guess I'll learn somehow, and anyway the guys who've taken it should know what this hocus-pocus is about.
Elections come and gone, and I daresay people are now in some state of fear over the recent political revolution. In hindsight, a revolution or an attempt to "cut the nose to spite the face" (as my mom put it)? I secretly hope for a revolution; after living in better circumstances for a year in Australia I sure hope someday that the Malaysian government is gonna clean up their act for real instead of all those empty promises. We'll see how this coalition thing goes.
Which brings the rather timely conversation I had with dad about migrating. It's not just about the money spent, the benefits, the opportunities, he told me - it was about me. Whether I really wanted it or not, whether I could live in a new environment all over again... Partly because I wanted so much to go back there and study, go back there and get a job, and (maybe) go back there just to be with...*sigh*. Let's not go there.
In that exchange, though, the thought of changing 'alliances' (in short my nationality) never crossed my mind, I don't think I ever could. I still enjoy so much in Malaysia, it's still home to me. Put aside the mamak, put aside the shopping, put aside the value for money, I grew up here, had many firsts (including skipping school, S9, driving, the nakamas, getting stopped by police) have made many friends (although they're slowly dispersing to every corner of the earth) and most importantly right now, my family, relatives and guama are still here. But as they say, I suppose the grass is greener on the other side, even if grass isn't exactly your thing.
Still in a holiday-ish mood. Was temporarily out of it I think on Monday when I tried to make notes, but I flopped over on Tuesday and decided to be lazy. Buck up already! @_@ Not to mention the assignments are starting to pour in (first mad rush in early April) and the initial project plan to finish in 3 weeks (not counting this week - eeps!)
