Next phase

Yesterday was my last day with Jump Retail Sdn Bhd. I have been working there since Feb 2007. 3 years 6 months. Learned a whole bunch of thing during my time there. During the 3.5 years, many aspects of my life has changed. I went to many places met many interesting people. Got to play with a lot of really cool gadgets.

What a journey it has been. I'm kinda of glad that it is over now tho... Feels like the ropes has been cut and I'm free. A very liberating feeling. =)

Many people ask me why, I reply, why not? Let us give something else a shot. That was what happen in 2007 when I got the job, no prior working experience in the line. Jumped right in. Came out 3.5 years later, still alive and kicking. 

So whats next? Well, the next phase starts next month. A little project which has been growing at the back of my head for about 10 months now. Hopefully all goes according to plan. Else I will go back to growing mold in my room. :P

So as we know from the previous blog, I missed my flight to Miri, and I ended up in Bintulu and then made my way to Miri. During this trip I borrowed a Sigma 10-20mm f4.0 from Alex Teo. Just to try out some scenery shooting. Ended up I didn't take much of any scenery more of people with altered heads :-D

*WHEEEEEE*

*whops! was not me! it was like that when I got there!*

In any case the flight to Bintulu was uneventful.

*See... Uneventful!*

Arrived on time and waited for my colleague to come fetch me. So I went online and checked mail. Check out this photo of me trying to look busy in a very empty airport.
