The National - Hard To Find

Image
"Hard To Find" I can see the glowing lights I can see them every night Really not that far away I could be there in a day I wonder if you live there still I kinda think you always will If I tried you'd probably be Hard to find What I feel now about you then I'm just glad I can explain You're beautiful and close and young In those ways we were the same There's a lot I've not forgotten I let go of other things If I tried they'd probably be Hard to find They can all Just kiss off into the air They can all Just kiss off into the air I don't know why we had to lose The ones who took so little space They're still waiting for the east To cover what we can't erase I'm not holding out for you I'm still watching for the signs If I tried you'd probably be Hard to find They can all Just kiss off into the air They can all Just kiss off into the air

External Hard Drive

Using External hard disk after 2 years Last time I used it was in UTP.  .  So lets see what can I find,  WOW.  All my favorite movie collection,  all my favorite songs collection,  all my pictures collections.  .  But.  .  Dont know why, listening/ watching all that is making me feel exactly as I was in UTP,  and I cant say, I was much happy at UTP, so sadness is prevailing at me now as well Dont know whats happening,  .  Feeling Sad,  feeling like university, tired, lonely .  Old memories good and bad are attached to certain materialistic things,  Songs and movies I have watched, the collection i have for each have certain good and sad memories.  .  Better I stop watching, as they are influencing me now.  Pursuit of Happiness,  Continues.  :) CHEERS

Diary Post # 1. Visit to a Drilling Rig. 2nd Sept to 4th Sept

It was decided by drilling dept that a facilities engineer shall witness the chirstmas tree  installations. So here it started although I'm not a facilities engr. my boss asked me to go to witness it. Let me clear my self here, I have never been offshore, I have never been on a Drilling rig and most importantly I don't know any thing abt Christmas tree installation.   So this is the challenge for me now. A big challenge. So many things that will happen first time, like Going to east malaysia Going offshore Going on drilling rig Travelling in a chopper Experiencing drilling Honestly I was worried, scared and confused.  What if I make any mistake, my job and reputation was at stack, since out there people don't know im new to company.  I flew to miri on Sunday 1st Sept (**amir came to Klsentral), checked in meritz hotel and went out to have lunch in a mall next to hotel. Tried Marry Brown. Slept a while after lunch to complete my sleeping cycle.  At night

Little things

Most of us in our busy lives have Big dreams to perceive,  Big Money to make,  Big Car to Buy,  Big achievements Big..... All sometimes we are concerned about are big things, where in we ignore SMALL PRECIOUS THINGS, which are as important as the others.  . Persuasion of anything has some reason, most of the time, is HAPPINESS,  when a dream comes true, you feel happy. but we do not realize we can be happy even before our dreams are achieved, as some one has rightly said,  " It is not the destination, instead journey that matters" And journey is full of small things, which combine to make a big dream in reality.  . Happiness, what is this happiness,  I realized,  A baby's unconscious laughter like never ending is Happiness,  Old Lady in train, helping her lifting some vegetables is Happiness,  A worried man, telling simple words, Everything Shall be OK is Happiness,  A childish act that brings a smile on mothers face is Happiness, 

Dream Come True

Dream Come true, or should I say, Man Proposes and God Disposes  what ever is the title, it suits my situation.  . Today when I look 2 days back, I feel what I went through was my stupidity, or may be it was fated.  . Now when it is already over with no much consequences, I feel happy to share and blessed, since as a Muslim, I believe, there must be something BIG ( a hurdle, a calamity) taken away from my life or my beloved ones.  .  So here it starts.  . I woke up 4.50 am with all my luggage packed with a plan to catch a flight to Johor at 7.30 like always.  I had called a taxi at 5.30, so I had my meal, got ready and waited for taxi to call me.  Taxi did come at 5.30 but by the time I reached down my apartment to catch it, the taxi guy already flew away. There was, but , one taxi waiting for one girl to go somewhere, and he did offer me to go KL sentral but as I had committed to radio cap, i denied the offer.  .  I called the Radio Cap again, and they said

Proud to be an Engineer

Today I really feel great to be an Engineer,  Every day, you do something, that distinguish you from ordinary person.  . Everyday, you dress up in same coverall, go to breakfast with all the people dressed in best, you tend to sneak in, thinking not many people would find you different, have breakfast and then rush to work.  . At work, all people you meet have similar working level as you, all exhausted, all trying hard to complete projects and all seem to be proud of what they know.  . Saturdays, Sundays, 24 hours a day is a hard job indeed, but it is fun when you work on something for sometime, may be year or 2 or 5 years, and at end, you see the things working as per your design or construction. It really feels great.  . My challenges right now are to be a good engineer with a good human being.  The later one is the harder one, the prior will follow the later.  . Cheers. 

My Creator and My Mother

In all these hassles, fast moving life, troubles, frustrations, challenges, competitions, complexities and fights, restlessness and emptiness, only the name of Allah and My Mother soothes this heart.  At Peace.

VISIT TO West Port Fabrication Yard

I just joined the company and then they put me in project, well it is a good thing,  but worst is when they asked me to go to yard and represent the department.  Ooooo, that feeling is like Fire running through my veins, and make me nervous and scared.  . Today I had to go to Westport yard to attend a Progress meeting with contractors.  I took a taxi from KLCC at 10.45, and reached at destination around 12.30.  It was a long journey, KL > Selangor > Port Klang > Pulau Indah > Yard . The meeting was merely an update on things going on and that what is planned to be done.  But I observed following things besides the update. . Some people can Play Games in meetings.  It was like Company A has contractor B, which has contractor C, which has contractor D, so if A asks anything from B, B asks C, and C asks D. Haha.. Its fun to sublet the job to contractors.  Today I really Felt like Boss. . Chose to return through KTM, then took taxi to Klang KTM s

Adorable Kid in Elevator

Cant forget that morning I was going to office and in the elevator of my Apartment I met an angel. A kid around 2.5 years old entered with Nipple in his mouth, said "HELLLO" to me, the voice was so clear, loud and full of Affection. When I looked at him, he started smiling and started talking to his mother in Chinese. Later when we got down, he said ''BYE BYE''. Though they might be simple things, ordinary words, but the way he pronounced those, was like telling me, Hey Raheel, life is so beautiful you just have to say HEllo to life and happiness and Bye bye to worries and problems. He Made my day though out. Still can fantasize his voice. Hope to see him again. ^_^

PIPE Training Day 12th

HR General Briefing in Morning Code of Conduct and Business Ethics (CoBE) after Lunch .  Leadership Seminar after Dinner.  Some of the key points about leadership to keep myself motivated.  Serve to Lead - Learn first to serve before leading and then lead by serving It is not about giving orders, but about giving good orders,  Good Leaders apologies humbly when they make mistakes Company does not make People, the People make the company, we are responsible with our Life. Good Boss backs you up always, whatever .  Always remember who you are and where you come from Leadership is about good stewardship.  After Evening session, for the first time in my life, I went to sing Karoeke at Alamanda PJ along with my PIPE Dragons. It was hell of fun, dancing, singing and Having Fun. For first time, I dance on Gangnam Style song. Haha, quite funny.  Later after dinner, we dragons went again to have meal (dinner for some and supper for some), around 15 of us on sam
