What I'm up to (2018)

Well many people use blog sphere to journal their life. Me included. I usually suddenly remembers that I have a blog and all of a sudden I'll be retracing my journey through life on this page. I started this blog (looking at my earliest feed) is from year 2009..which is ALMOST 10 years ago. Suddenly I was taken aback by how long I have been writing (although there's ALMOST 2 years gap from 2017 until 2018). It could mean something, it could mean nothing depends on how you look at it. To say that I've been busy with my life for the past 2 years to even write on this blog is an overstatement. However, from my last feed, I did mention something about a T.O (Transfer Order) isn't it? Let's start from there shall we...

I transferred to KL beginning of Ramadhan nearly 2.5 years ago. I remembers that I got the Order a week or two before Ramadhan, and I have to pack my things in Sendayan, Seremban 2 and move to KL. I've got mixed feeling regarding this latest transfer. Half of me is overjoyed to have escaped the workplace in hell but part of me is reluctant to move from Seremban not because I will  miss it's intense heat waves (T_T), but more to unwillingness to once again pack up my life in boxes and move away..AGAIN...

I, however did successfully moved myself and Husband from Seremban 2 to Segambut KL, well within time for me to start in KL. I still remember the first day I arrived at KL Court is on the day the Monthly Roll Call was held. I had help from one of the officer, former colleague of a former colleague to show me around. I had been stationed at Level 1 in the Registry and later, at my request because the phone reception is non-existent down there, move to a newer, bigger office at level 3 where I now permanently located until next transfer.
My new office

It's been a roller coaster ride here in KL Court and I had presently have lunch buddies and now rightfully belongs to an unofficial clique. who would have though, for I once thought this profession is a one way street to loneliness (at least at the workplace)...
