Why I MALAYSIAN

Lots of friends thought I was mad to want to work in oversea. It was last year when i moved out from Malaysia to Ireland to work. I felt restless living at home and wanting to try something new and learning new experience in my life since I'm young. So i left my job as a Senior Event Operation Executive job and took the temporary job as a waiter to tide myself over, until my life is full of colour someday.

I intended to stay here for two years, but not even one year, i felt bored, i started missing some silly things, like my favorite Pan Mee (some sort of noodles), Nasi Lemak, Tom Yam, Prawn Mee, Seafood, spicy fried chicken KFC, Asam Laksa, Sushi, Korean food, Durian, Dim Sum, Siu Yok, Yong Tou Fu, Bak Tu Teh, Roti Canai, Teh O' ice limau, Pork Mee and vegetables...etc. Because i could not find any in Ireland, some more Irish eat much meat and they don eat spicy food. Yeah, i guess i could only eat these "so-called" malaysian food for now and I'll have to travel 6 hours in a bus, if i were to find an authentic malaysian food. Some more non spicy at all. It's Look alike Malaysia foods, but the taste... haha... Let's have a look... Jesus, Malaysian can not live without chili.

I miss my family and my friends... every single day. One of my friend came over visited me one month ago, but it never seemed long enough, i feel guilty that i could not spend more time on him. Because it was the 1st time and the only friend, Giin, visited me from Malaysia, that i realised how much i miss my friends. Thank you, Giin. Hearing about all things going on in Malaysia, friends hang out to party, yam cha, shopping, traveling and clubbing... made me feel like i was missing out my 'real life'!

I'm living alone in a tiny studio flat, just above my working place. This is my 3rd job in Ireland, and should be the final job as i thought would not change anymore until the day i leave Ireland. Although i made a few friends through out my working life in Ireland, but most of them could not consider as a soul mate to me. Most of the time...I'm alone. I can not live without my laptop, I've used to sitting on the bed and facing my lovely laptop (online) every single day. What is my life now? Working, sleeping, eating, online chatting and blogging (just started about a week). I used to go shopping alone, Gym alone, Sauna alone and travelling alone.

By then, I've decided to return. The great thing about my time away is that it made me love Malaysia more. I never regret coming to Ireland, because it changed me and made me realized that I'm loving Malaysia more than ever before. I've changed to be more independent, but Malaysia will always depend on family and friends...gaining more experience...still, I love Malaysia more than Ireland.

I will never leave where I m. I will be back soon 'Malaysia'!
