...In the name of Allah...
Alhamdulillah, I'm no longer rotting at home, doing nothing. I'm now working as a temporary RA at UKM, Bangi, but my desk is in Msia Genome Institute (MGI), a few miles away from UKM main campus. My job requires me dealing with Master and Ph.D theses and manuscripts, and re-writing them into journal format for publication. I have to translate some works written in Malay into English too, since it is a UKM policy for citizen students to write in Malay. So far I have translated 1 Master thesis, and more is coming in my way. Gulp (o__O)
Thanks for this job, now I got my best buddies closer with me. There are Tira, Pao, Zyha, Asmaa. Also, Mior and Joe are around as well. I miss my good moments with RIT buddies so much! I wish the others can show up and meet together soon (Calling for Muni, Dila, Jiji, Manche, Ecah kentang, Ecahmo, Erin, Hawa, etc!). These guys/girls are my escapade into a totally new world (^___^) Tira, my ex-housemate-in-RIT-but-is-now-my-roommate has helped me a lot in adapting to MGI environment and colleagues. I owe you girl :)
Today, I went to Shah Alam's new library in Section 9, just opened in December 2011, with Pao and Zyha. The interior design is something worth of a compliment, but still lacking of lotsa interesting books. But it's nice to realize, people were buzzing coming in and out. Library is once again a place for everyone at all ages to gather together, for the sake of knowledge and fun. Then we met Joe, Erin, and Nanith at Plaza Sh.Alam for a short talk while eating takoyaki and okonimiyaki (Yum!). Erin has gotten thinner! I'm proud of your achievement girl! Keep it up ;)
After Asar, three of us met KN and drove to UIUC alumni's regular volleyball games at Taman Tasik Titiwangsa. We got lost twice - don't blame us, the GPS was probably not in her good mood - but we did arrive. Yeah, 10min later than KN. It's a good thing that I agreed to come, a lot of ATU friends I've been missing for years were there. Including some unexpected people - such a pleasant surprise (wink!) Honestly, I was really glad to meet them all again.
Now, I demand for a gathering of RIT buddies! Come on, let's plan and play!
