Keeping In Touch

Time really flies as I could observe my 6 months HO secondment pass through without "much waiting" as fast as it started in Oct 2006 and now I back in my Kuching continuing with my battle.

Probably, this may be due to my eagerness of looking forward each day to keep in touch with my loved ones, family and friends back at home and also those old pals in KL or maybe I am just fast-forwarding the events...Every other week, either I am looking forward to board MAS/Airasia flight back to Kuching or eagerly waiting for a nice weekend outing with old friends.

So far, I am glad that I have managed to meet up at least 4X with our old pals namely Ah Chiong, Stephen C, Lieng Tee, Chuan Yew, Eng Soon at one time or the other...and the last round was having a nice Bahkuteh in Klang on the courtesy of Lieng Tee.

Meeting old friends will really can speed up the waiting period as we plan our time and place way in advance, then just keep looking out for the day to come by...Exchanging updating ideas/latest figures/recalling old times are good detoxification of our fast moving life or boringness..maybe.

KL life is very different as compared to local Sarawak as in my opinion though I am sure many of you would agree. Everything seems to be measured by speed, time and distance not only need to consider family/personal agendas in moving on your life. Whatever appointment need to be planned first as timing/distance is crucial. In Kuching, I can just call and make easier decision as the distance to places around city/home is just 15 minutes away...then no traffic jams, so fast to go and coming back.

Then, again...of course, it depends on the importance of the matter, we will always make ourself best available to the appointment especially in terms of meeting girlfriends/boyfriends/old pals. For this, I must mentioned that I am touched by the care of Ah Chiong/Stephen whom had been very nice to pick me all the way from/to Flamingo Hotel Ampang (my home for 6 months) whenever we have set out appointment at Bandar Puteri...Just imagine it took 1 hour minimum and can be drag to 2 hours if there is accident along the highway.

I guess they are also eager to keep in touch with me and others...what do you think ? :)

When was the last time you have keep in touch with your old pals ? especially those whom you have not met or talk for more than 6 months and above? Anyone ? May be we should share with one another on our long time pals whom we recently met especially the lost ones...

P/S Last night, Seng Yaw, Anthony Ting and myself have supper with Chuan Yew, who was in Kuching from Bintulu.

So, the next time, any of you are in Kuching, please contact me...let me be your host..and keep our friendship flame burning. Cheers !
