Working aboard....... | Monday, November 24, 2008


I was initially typing another post - but i was just stuck. Blogger's Block perhaps ? hehehe At the same time - surfing the net - watching American Idol Audition - chatting with my friends - flirting ? hehehehe


And reading my friend -
Lisa's blog. A quiet well-known blogger =p she's got a number of followers and heavy traffic on her blog. she's so well received that she was even featured on another blogger's blog. ^___^


Well anyway, its in reference to her latest
post . Would you leave everything behind and work aboard ? That has inspired me to write my current/this post and erm leave the other entry hangin for awhile..hehehehe


Neways, my comment on that post entry was :

" given another opportunity - i would take it. perhaps its just a passing phase for me now. coz while i was workin away from home - i missed my family n home - ALOT. always wishin i could be back at home instead. and now being back here, im always searchin for another chance to go overseas again. at times i felt horribly alone but at the same time i did experience n gain so much that i wouldnt have trade it for anything. so conclusion for me for now is...yes i would love to go overseas to work - alone ? i dont see that as a problem for me =p "


i basically said YES. like my comment - perhaps its really just a passing phase for me. I really dont know.


Where I am currently - neither up nor down - im feeling somewhat lost....
My really short journey/adventure away from home in 2006/2007 - has really left quite an impact on me.


It was one of the toughest roads i have ever taken on. Being away from home - i was really really homesicked. I missed my parents - my siblings -my family - my doggy - my bed - my car - gosh the list could go on......and on........... but at the same time - i have learnt so much. experienced so many things. discovered so much more. endure alot. suffered as well...hahahaa



But now being back at home......my heart is itching to get back on another overseas -for another adventure @ work. Sad to say, i have yet to be able to find that ticket out of this country yet.


This is something i have not really really discuss with my parents yet. I have on several occasions casually bringing it up saying " Oh i think i wanna go work in Macau or HK or Aussie...etc" but we never got into a really deep discussion on that.



Im guessing that if i ever did go overseas to work again, parents gonna be pretty sad.
Im hoping its just a passing phase......at the same time i really really want to go AGAIN....not back to the same company - coz as much fun i had there, the good friends i've made and the exposure i have received and learnt - i dont really like it - i dont enjoy the workload although at times i crave for pressures and tensions as i do somehow work better under such situation -but its more of the ppl i had to work with. I do not hate them all but I'm not exactly on the "BUDDY BUDDY" terms with them either. Its more of "Hi Bye" kinda terms and that if its necessary only.... =p



as i am not getting any younger - the window of opportunity is getting smaller by the day - i really wish and hope for another chance. Just one more. To go and leave the country, work for a year or two or even perhaps more...i dunno.....and see where the/that adventure will lead me to....
.

So once more in conclusion - Given the opportunity - YES. I know some might think im being very selfish - coz as mention, i think my parents wont be too happy about it nor will my sis =p . But i felt that i need this. I got to have it. For me! Im bored where i am now. Im lost where i am now. Im confused. Im blur. Im just not here HERE.

That itch has got to be scratch.
