Life in IPOH ???

                    Hey everyone, its time for a brand new post again. Since the last post about UMS farewell, here I am again crapping in my humble blog. For those who had read my blog previously, I thank you all for continuing to test your patience by reading my craps and also for the 1st timer, I welcomed u all and I hope you all will enjoy reading my blog as well.
                    Well, its been a while since I left Sabah and started my practical training here in ‘Pejabat Kementerian Pelancongan Malaysia Negeri Perak Darul Ridzuan’ ( fuh, such a long long name). so, I have to complete the 12 weeks of practical training before I could officially ending all my courses in UMS and finally graduates. So, here I am having my internship in the ministry of tourism Malaysia Perak. Its been almost 5 weeks I’m here doing my intern in Ipoh. So, I’m not going to tell what I’m doing here in the office as it’s boring and lame. Well, there were some interesting story as well but let me just skip those parts.
                    What I’m keener to crap here is my life here in Ipoh. Basically, one word enough to describe it and it’s none other than the word ‘LONELY’. Hahahaha, I just couldn’t avoid from loneliness am i? haha. Being in Ipoh all alone is somehow a challenge for me. Not that I never been alone before but its just so not cool to be alone actually. When I was doing my internship during my 2nd year of studies in ‘Teluk Batik Resort’, Lumut, I cant felt the loneliness although I’m alone too that moment. Maybe its because of the long tiring working hour and I don’t even have time to feel lonely. Well, its just felt so different over here in Ipoh. I work only during weekdays, from 0800 to 1700 everyday and that’s it. After work, I’ll go back to my rent house and faces the ‘4 sided walls’ (Cantonese). Watching dramas or playing games until dinner time… pheww it’s just so boring.
                    Dinner time is the worst thing. I’m eating all by myself and it is so frustrating sometimes when I don’t know what to eat. Well, around my house area there are a lot of food to eat and its undeniable that they kind of serve quite good food. As my lady house owner always says “u can eat different food everyday for 2 months” (I guess she was just exaggerating as there are indeed a lot of places that sells many kind of foods but there are also places that serve the same kind of food) hahaha.. so, sometimes I just rather buy back my dinner after work and eat at home. After all, it is no different between eating outside or at home as I am just eating alone. (JIAK KA KI)
                    The real deal is during weekend.. Weekend is really a time where the ultimate loneliness can be feel. Sometimes I just wish could wake up in the evening but I couldn’t. Maybe its because I already get used to wake up 6 in the morning. The latest can sleep is until 8morning only. Waking up so early in the morning again brings stress to me as I need to figure out what am I going to eat for my breakfast and also lunch. Therefore I will skip my breakfast and take my lunch instead.
                    When its weekend and I cant stay home and grew mushroom on my head am i??? so, I will go out to places in Ipoh such as the ‘Ipoh Parade’, ‘Jaya Jusco’, ‘Tesco’, ‘Giant’, ‘Yik Fong Complex’, and some other places. My time its filled but somehow it still felt not so good. All because I am all alone. I did watch movie alone here in Ipoh (I always watch movie alone back in KK,Sabah), buying groceries need in Giant, windows shopping in Jusco and driving here and there in Ipoh,, all by myself ONLY..haha.. this is why my life here is so boring.
                    Many of u out there will start thinking, “why cant u just call your friends in Ipoh or maybe your colleagues and hang out together?” well, folks out there, no that I don’t wish to, but I understand that they too have their own plans.. so, i rather not bothering anyone. Hehe 
Alright, I guess its long enough and u guys out there started to feel annoyed by my craps..hahaha.. anyway, I have 7 weeks more to go and hopefully things can start to change to a better one. I’ll talk about my office perhaps in the next post… or maybe I wont..hahaha so, see ya …   (eddie sign out)
