I've been off from blogging for almost a week. Well, not exactly off. I'm just being too busy managing a project with #wherein if you know what am I referring to. I am not necessarily disappointed by anything, but myself. During this whole week, I gave myself enough time to reflect, try to understand the situation, and see things clearer whilst I'm away.
The first picture is taken in the evening. And this was taken in the morning. It was the first day of "opening" after a lengthy stay at home order from the government due to the C19, which I'm not going to talk about it anymore since so many people have been sharing that crap for donkey months. What I'm trying to highlight is a perception. When one is at a light place, going into the dark, it will take some time to get used to the environment. However, if you're in the dark and getting a bright light can literally make you blind for a very long time.
I think I'm just being spoiled for a very long time. I mean since I left the IT industries, I started working in insurance company, I have all the freedom that many people dream of, and my pay is relatively handsome considering my qualification is so low. I got so carried away and took things for granted like the job were plucked from sky and suddenly this pandemic changed everything. These few weeks at home, I'm FORCED to be really humble, since there's really nothing much I can do except stay at home. And suddenly when work started, I really have no idea where to pick myself up from. Which explained why I wasn't here for a whole week. Like I've been blessed with everyday having good food at home despite the limited movement control order. And after I'm back at work, seriously I couldn't find food! Come on man, now I know why fast-food is NOT cheap' cheap. It's convenient and we simply ignore the fact that they do charge on the packaging and the portion is unjustified. I literally need a double breakfast to fuel up. So, it's not exactly cheap.
Let's put all those aside, coming back to busy schedule. Back to work, can't live without coffee. And now, iced coffee is RM2.50. Seriously, I guess pretty soon their price can match Starbucks coffee. Once again, it's not overpriced, but it's on demand. It's just the nature of how economy works. Looking at it, hyperinflation is in the making. Better be prepare to make my own coffee, or better yet just stop drinking.
And after many days struggle with my CentOS in my laptop VMBox, I decided to move them to the desktop. And the desktop broken. So I managed to grab some supplies from the half closed shop downtown and had it repaired. After suffering for another few more days, finally I managed to kick them start. Thanks to 
And, today is Wesak Day, it's a special holiday. If you do not know what Wesak Day is, go ask Mr.Goo. I'm just telling you my country is having way too much holiday. Movement control order has been uplifted, despite not fully, but there's no longer road block between my house and the mall. Off I went to grab my favorite Subway sandwich for breakfast.
Mall is still very clean on the food outlet floor. I believe it was due to many of these restaurant are not open for business yet. And possibly some of them are permanently closed since the down turn. I already saw a few shops emptied and tear down their display racks. Once again, it's a new world, new order. Things will never be the same again.
One last thing to mention, this is a noodle I bought it from the restaurant near by my office. As we all know, the new order is to NOT dine in at the restaurant, so I took it back to my office and had it in my pantry. Why would I mention this? Well, this is one of the most affordable noodle I can find so far, they only charge me 5.50! At a prime area, business hub, couldn't possibly find anything more affordable than this! Forget about the taste, it's just barely consumable.
After being together with female tiger for such a long time, now only I know she can cook the similar kind of noodle! Only difference is, this is so much more tastier than the one I bought from the restaurant. Seriously marvelous.
