Life @ Sea

Life offshore is so different compared to when I am on land. With no internet facilities, we have only one free public phone line for us to call our families. Which, as you would have imagined, you have to wait for your turn. Laundry and foods is available, unlimited, and FOC.

And I can tell you, the food is really good. Nicer than I would have thought.


Anyway, before I left office, I have set my office mail in “away mode”. Away on the 3rd September 2010, back on- unknown. And a “Thank you for your email. I will reply when I have access to internetworking”. And “ Please cc your email to my hotmail address”. (Yeah right, as if I would read it) .

This is the typical type of most-eligible independent guy you would never imagine that would cried under this circumstances. I don’t want to hide, but yes, I do feel like crying when the lights goes off at night. (I am only a first-timer)

Looking at the sea in the middle of the night with a cup of coffee of tea in my hand has became a routine for me basically. Or sometimes when a nice movie was on the theater, I would watch it. But 40% of the time, it is pornographic films.

Some stupid x-rated movie, where you would see one guy and one girl walking on the streets hand in hand, then swoosh…suddenly they are making out on the bed.

The problem is, they never turn down the volume in the theater anyway. Anyway, my teacher used to tell me “If you can’t beat the best, join them and be one of them”. So I would just join in. :P

Hindi movie was not bad either. I enjoy to laugh at their accent. Vietnamese movie, I don’t understand, and I would say, no matter how I hate Malaysian movie, now I started to hate Vietnamese movie.

If only I could be acting in one of those movies, I would be a movie star in Vietnam.

But only now I know, Stephen Chow movies is their favourite of all time.

Time to sleep.

Goodnight.
