What I do for a living ...

Today is my last day travelling. This is my 6th night away from home atas nama kerja. Since sekarang nie revision week kat Uni, we took the opportunity to do our fieldwork for our housing research. Dah le aku baru balik from CH, stay kat umah 2 mlm je dah kena travelling. But is is kind of fun jugak...there were times I rasa cam holiday ...paid holiday gitu.


First destination is Miri ...3 malam di sini...we arrived in the afternoon, tanpa check in dulu terus pi ronda2 Miri ...kitorang reckki tempat for our survey - so that cuti nie nanti our students akan ke sana to interview people. and the next day pun sama ...but the good thing is that abis awal than expected. So, we had one day free - aku apa lagi - tido, lepak kat pool, makan and tido ...cam holiday kan? One thing best about Miri - we stayed in Mega Hotel and breakfast, lunch and dinner is inclusive - and apa lagi ...buffet breakfast, buffet lunch then buffet dinner 3 hari berturut2 ...steamboat plak tu dia punya weekend special last week! Heavens ....



Steaming hot chocolate pudding! Sedappppp

Kat Bintulu - pun ok gak. We managed to do everything that we need to do in one day. But yang bestnyer malam tu ada dinner - served for 10 people in their VIP room tapi yang makannya (or should I say melantak) only 5 org ...fun! Bintulu - nothing much to see or do. I just stay in my room (aku tak tau ada rooftop swimming pool kat Lee Hua Hotel) buat kerja ...and kami sanggup lepak kat airport for more than 3 hours than jalan kat situ. Bos aku sms awal pagi kata "lets lepak kat airport. will be better than this cave"...





Then, the final leg of the trip is Sibu. Sampai lewat petang so nothing to do yesterday. Today dah reckki abis satu Sibu nie - from setinggan to kampung-kampung to low cost housing area...penat. Makan tak berapa best ...malam nie aku tapau kfc je ...huhuhu huge different from our VIP dinner kat Bintulu or our sumptous buffet kat Miri ...tapi hotel dia kelas sket ...am staying at the 12th floor (exec floor) at RH Hotel...hotel baru, so everything is quite new, fresh ...tapi buffet breakfast dia tak brapa best ...maybe sebab hotel nie penuh la nie ngan org2 dari Jabatan Pendidikan - ada courses, seminar and even interview JPA kat sini this week...choices of food is limited. Pagi tadi aku turun tengok most of the food dah nak abis ....kuat melantak org pendidikan nie pepagi kot ...hehehehe





Sunset over the mighty Rajang River, view from my room earlier this evening

So, that was a week of my life....enjoy gak travel mcm nie...seeing new places sambil kerja. Kalau tak kerana kerja aku rasa susah aku nak ke sini. Bukan apa, takde sebab nak ke sini. This is my first trip to Sibu ...and my room is overlooking the mighty Rajang River ...alah, sungai yang terpanjang di Malaysia tu ...hehehehe aku pun baru tengok!


Esok aku nak balik ke Kuching. And i will have to pack now. The thought of coming back to Kuching memang seronok but I will be coming back to a empty house coz my parents still kat KL ...anyway, best tak kerja aku??? penat memang penat, tapi this time round aku rasa mcm bercuti sket. Bukan apa, kami pergi atas budget Kementerian yang hire kami buat research nie, and 2 org staff dia pun ikut sekali ...so all expenses ditanggung ...kalau uni yang buat, kami selalu tak splash all out like this ....
