In these two weeks, I realised since I went to Australia for my studies, I have developed a phobia of being alone. Here, at my workplace, I am the only one in R&D besides my boss. So I can only brainstorm my ideas with my boss. Also, I am currently using the not-often-used meeting table, which is separated from the rest of my colleagues by a wall with windows. This means unless my boss talks to me, my mouth is pretty much motionless. The other time I talk would be to her maid during my lunch and dinner time. I think out of 24 hours, I only talk for 5 hours max.
I know it was my choice to stay at the hotel (I was feeling really uncomfortable staying at boss's house one night). Luckily, there is a TV where I can watch programs from the local TV network. Unfortunately, in my room there, I couldn't access internet as the wireless signal is not strong enough. Jho Yan once said that if I can access internet from my room, I wouldn't be feeling lonely. True, but both the new Maxis and Celcom broadbands' signals cannot reach Tanjung Sepat!!! So bah-lia!!!
Oh yea, I also just found out that the first friend I have here who is also my colleague who took me around this place for lunch is going to leave in Dec for a better pay job in Shah Alam. There goes another friend ....
So far, in my job, I mainly do journal searching for the website, my boss's masters proposal and for my own interest (HIV-AIDS, compost, etc.) Have been doing these for two weeks and counting now. I can't start any experiment cos boss is sending me to Fuzhou for a course in mushroom cultivation next month. So I can't start a project and leave it behind. Meaning these two weeks have been boring enough to make me quit the job. The only thing stopping me from doing that is knowing that there is plenty of learning opportunities which I need in order to improve my skills.
This blog has a very sad tone to it isn't it? Hopefully I can recover from this very soon and be a motivated person again!
