Cold!
It has been raining since last week and we were trapped in this icy cold weather.
Have to walk around in the plant with rain coat. Cold!
Climbed up very very very high to the primary reformer today and saw lots of steam released by the steam drum which looked like a huge wave of clouds floated by. This made me thought of Genting Highlands where I have this sudden urge to catch a flight to KL and then take a bus to Genting for a holiday =p
Since I can't do anything about it, myself focus and explore the reformer >.<
It was fun learning on how to start up the whole thing and the operators are very willing to teach us the theory behind it =) It was a good day (",)
Am feeling a little guilty of not blogging about the caroling trip to the long house. Tho its a bit late but here are some pictures of it ^_^
Love the song "Felis Navidad" and always keep in mind, never ever clap for this song! hehe >.<

Rain oh rain
Early in the morning, 6 am as usual, woke up shivering because it is raining cats and dogs outside. Prepare for work lazily wishing that I can apply for emergency leave and sleep for the whole day. But my conscious mind told me not to.
Run to the bus half wet, thanks to Raymond for the umbrella, then into the plant where most of the places are flooded with 1 or 2 inches of water. Had my safety shoes soaked in the water. Coverall was half wet, heavy and cold =(
The rain lasted for not 1 or 2 but 18 hours! and still counting. It is now too cold to bath also T______T oh crap! the weather is killing me!

Bintulu people
Bintulu people over-friendly or Klang people unfriendly?
Haha! there's this shop named Sin Leong opposite our house. Renae and I loved the food there because it is delicious with a reasonable price. Therefore, we always bungkus from there very often until the "tauke niu" (lady boss) know us liaw.
So we went there today to dabao again and she chit chat with us for a while, asking whether are we going back for Chinese New Year. So as usual I will say NO, then she asked why. I was too lazy to explain because its a damn long story and I just blame on the expensive flight ticket =p ~jahat~
Then out of a sudden, she invited me to stay with her and her family for CNY. Can u imagine that? Renae and I were stunned~~
She said: "dun worry, our house got no guys and I have 4 daughters"
Hahaha~ speechless.....even Klang people here in Bintulu also not that friendly..lolx~~
Continue with my dinner~~ tata!

Mahjong addict (s)
Have you ever played mahjong before?
I learned once during the holiday trip to Redang, was taught how to play by my friends but then stopped after the trip because no "kaki" and no mahjong set.
However, met Melissa here in Bintulu where she got a complete set together with 3 "kaki" : Melissa, Renae and me!! wakaka!

So Renae and I pick up the real method of playing the 3-players mahjong and started to get addicted to it already. Played for 6 hours today from 3 pm till 9 pm at Mel's house, then cook spagetti for dinner >.<
Happie ^_^

Working in a plant
Attention to all "plant" lovers,
Do you think that working in a plant is fun?

It is not fun at all, every second you stand in the plant, you are exposed to millions of hazards and the possibility of any type of accident you may imagine.
It is burning hot under the sun, and there are high pressure steam pipes everywhere, which means pipes with super duper high temperature (up to 1000 deg celcius) and you may not even notice it.
I once almost tripped and fell because of the pipe on the floor but luckily managed to stop myself from falling, have to climb monkey ladder to a few stories high to do plot plan and observe some leaking inlet pipe.
Have to wear the super duper heavy YELLOW coverall everyday with the ear plug, safety helmet, a pair of super duper heavy safety boots which took off my 2 toe nails and safety goggle.
Sometimes, you might not even hear what the operator say in the plant. It is just like:

Too noisy~~ with the ear plug stuffed in our ears, i can only hear 10-20% of the operator's voice eventhough our heads are like super close together already. Sometimes, I will stand there staring at he equipments imagining what kind of accident may happen involving that unit itself. Haha~~ and are exposed to the smelly ammonia smell.
Luckily the panel operators there are very friendly ^_^ They will attend to all my silly questions and we will have small quizzes also =)
All in all, I'm already in the plant, can't complain so much anymore. Haha~ Yosh~ INTERNS! gambatte everyone =p
So, do you still think working in a plant is fun? >.<
