Tiring Day

Went to glacier hiking with friend by bicycle last thursday during the break time, it was so tired coz we need to rush back. Although it was so tired, but we really enjoy it. This is the 1st time i went to glacier myself and we only using one crampon to walk on glacier because i left my crampon on bicycle, so we 2 ppl share 1 pair of crampon, it was so dangerous..lolx...Went to glacier ourself is fun because we can do some crazy activity there, maybe nex time i will try to jump into glacier water...hehe..:-)...

After enjoying, i need to rush back to work as chef assistant and it was so tired for me. Chef assistant is a nice position because i can do alot of stuff which is more interesting then dishwasher..hehe..:-)...I cooked vegetarian food for customers and actualy it is a simple job for me because all of the ingredients already prepared by my supervisor, so i just "goreng" only...hehe...

Suppose going to ice climbing today, but too bad there is no schedule today, so will stay in home and sleep for whole day after updating my blog..anywhere 1 month more to go i will enjoy my USA trip...Looking forward this day and also looking forward my Taipei trip on Nov 14....

~~Homesick~~

Homesick?? Why I don’t have this kind of feeling since I leave my lovely home for 1 month more already..and what is the feeling of homesick, can anybody tell me….Am I abnormal???? I had been away from Malaysia since 16 May 2009 and until now i only call one time to my parent and it was 1 month ago..All of my friends were shocked when they know that I only call once to my parents since I leave them around 1 month more alreadyand maybe it is time for me to call my parents again and let them know I am all right here..And I don’t know when the time I going back to my home, they still recognize me or not…

Agnes or Ven, if u are reading my blog, please let mum and dad and also grandmum know I am fine here..and the job here is getting busy nowadays because peak season is coming, and sometimes is really tired till feel wan to quit, but anywhere, I will suffer until the last day..i won’t so easy give up since I choose to come here for a new experience..1 more thing that I want to let u all know is my “spare tyre” on the stomach already disappear…all of the jeans I brought from Malaysia are become looser..i don’t know is good news or bad news because I not really use to the food here, and I never had a full meal before…(my waist is 31 before I came to Alaska, and now is 29 or less..omgg….) I suggest those who want to lose their weight, it is a nice place for u to come…but once I back to Malaysia, 1st thing I want to do is gain back my weight…:p..

All my friends, if u are reading my blog, hope u all doing well in Malaysia…I will find u all to wet again once I back to Malaysia and don’t worry, I will quarantine myself for few days before finding u all, in case u all kena swine flu and blame pula..:p…for those who are going to attend convocation on August, hope u all enjoy there and it is sad that I cannot join u all, but if I postpone my convo to next year, all of u mus come for it..:p.…for those who are going oversea soon, wei chen—all the best in aus and maybe 1 day I will go aus find u and make sure u sponsor my expenses ar.haha…nee nee—I know u september only go for uk, but still wish u all the best in UK, if u pay for all my expenses in UK, maybe I will give u a big surprise when ur 21st birthday .. :p..haha….

That’s all I want to say…SEE U ALL IN OCTOBER 2009…..TAKE CARE ALL MY BEST FRIENDS…

~~My Working Situation~~

Omggg…today is Thursday again le, means tomorrow I need to start my work again…haizzz…..Since I am so free right now, I will update my working look and some of my working situation in the working place as I promised in previous blog..

My job in Kennicott Glacier Lodge(KGL) is a dishwasher (but got a lame friend dun believe me that I am a dishwasher, dun under estimate me coz I am type of man that can enjoy till crazy and also suffer till crazy one…:-p ) and sometimes will become prep cook when my colleague is off duty..Dishwasher is a tough job for me because I need to stand for 8 to 10 hours everyday without having a chance to sit down and let my legs rest a while and most of the time I will work from 9am to 1pm and 5pm to 10pm, during the off period is the only chance to let my hands and legs rest for a while, but once the off period is over, I will wash those dishes till crazy because all the kitchen stuff and plates will put in basin there like a mountain and everytime I almost fainted when see all of those stuff…haiz.. …although we have washing machine here to help us clear the oily and greasy stuff, but we still need to clean all the plates before put into the machine, but most of the time, I just simply clean it then put into machine already because I am not the one who use for it…:-p…( if my boss read my blog, I will be fired immediately..hahaha)

Another new experience for me is “America food is SUX”…I missed home cook food and Malaysia food so much because here the food is so hard to put in mouth. Most of the food here is eating with fresh without cooking such as vegetable, ham slide, turkey meat slide and roasted beef slide, all is having it with fresh and without cooking….is so geli and disgusting ….Moreover, my breakfast and lunch menu is the same from 19th May 2009 until today. My breakfast are include pancakes, eggs, sausage and as for my lunch menu are ham slide, turkey slide, roasted beef slide, tomato, lettuce, onion, bread, cheese and we will use all this stuff to make our own burger....and I still need to eat for 3 months more…IT IS GOING TO KILL ME SOON……the only food that change everyday in my lunch menu is the soup…Lonce I back to Malaysia, the first thing I want to do is go to Bentayan and eat until full full…who want to join me…:-p....Luckily the dinner menu that we are having it is changing everyday and most of the time we enjoy the same dinner menu with customers, hahaha….or else I will dead for sure. I like the dinner time coz we can eat salmon fish, steak, and sometimes we will have dessert after dinner time..it is so nice…hehe…..Anywhere I want to say thank you X unlimited to Siau Chen Tan that post a lot of instant food to me coz u are the only one that know my situation here…haha…looking for the arriving of your mail package…hehe..:-) ..and as I promised, I will write ur name in mountain of Alaska…wakaka….

That’s all for my update today and I will try to post my housing environment in the coming blog….hehe..:p…take k all my frens and also my family….

River Rafting....

I love Wednesday and Thursday so much because it is my off day after 5 days work…and today is Wednesday, huiyo…..Suppose I will update my working situation as I mentioned in the previous blog, but since today there is something different happen in my life, I will postpone my working situation in nex blog…hehe..

Today I spent USD 80 for river rafting, and at the moment of paying the money, I was thinking is it worth for it because it is around RM 280 for few hours only...But after river rafting, I can only use 1 word to describe it which is AMAZING…..it is so excited to having this kind of activity which I never try in Malaysia before, and I love it so much..It is hard to describe the situation during the river rafting and u will only know the feeling when u sit on the boat and try for it. At first I was quite worry about it because I duno how to swim and what should I do when I felled into water…L..and once the boatman start to move the paddle for few minutes, my stress was totally released because of the skill of boatman is so good…he tried to bring us to those area which is big wave and it was so fun when the big wave hit on the boat, is such like sitting the roller coaster, but u will get wet after the big wave and the water is freaking cold….my hand are freeze and numb after few times of big wave…but it is NICE…it is so sad that I cant take the photo while sitting on the boat because of the unstable situation…

And we were going for hiking for a while and I saw the footprint of the bear…but unfortunately I cant see the bear…haiz..:-( ….and I even leave my name in the sand by using stone and the sand is so smooth and the water is clear and clean and I oso leave 1 lame queen name on the sand…hahaha..At last, we had safely completed our river rafting and prepared to go back to KGL..it was another fresh thing that I never try in Malaysia which is sitting on a small plane and view the scenery.. my life is so wonderful here and I ever travelled with a big plane which is United Airline, a medium size plane which is Airasia and now I had tried the small size plane which is the plane that send me back to KGL..and maybe next time I should try rocket and my life will be completed without regret…

After a wonderful river rafting, what I can say is nice and wonderful and I feel that our life is like sitting on a boat… As a boatman, need to decide whether to take the risk by go through the big wave or not and once u pass through the wave, there are only 2 possibilities which are u will fall into water or get the satisfaction after the wave. So maybe it is time for me to take some risks after going back to Malaysia. And wave is look like the process of our life, high and low and once u pass the low and calm period, there will be high wave waiting for u and on the other hand, once u pass the high wave, low and calm situation is waiting for your coming…that’s all for my update today….
