Recuperate  

Wednesday, August 28, 2013

Somewhere in the new chapter of my life, after a series of unjustified complex feelings that occurred, I had decided to write down the footprints of my life.

Currently being relocated to a smaller town in the same state, things might appear similar but intrinsically, it is different. Being so accustomed to the life and culture back in my hometown, i experienced a culture shock when I first arrived.

The people here are much more 'family-oriented' compare to the people in my hometown. People tend to go home straight after work and also dine at home which makes a single lad like me, without a family here, difficult to blend in.  Back in my hometown, hanging out with colleagues and friends seems to be the normal daily routine but it's like taking a 180 degree turn.

I was delighted and motivated to go to work every morning when i was in my hometown but now after being transferred, i could only say, c'est la vie. Colleagues here seldom hang out together as compared to my colleagues back in my hometown. The work culture just seem so wrong here. I just hope that someday some miracle will happen in the Branch so things will get much better. It's like a person being hit rockbottom and struggling to get up.

Can't say much for now as i'm still new here and everything i said was from my perspective. However, there are a few lovely people I've met who willingly offered a warm hospitality when i'm in this small town. Really do appreciate people like them because they have unwilling listened to all my complaints of their hometown.

I'll stop here for now as i need more sleep. Drove down to another town which is a 150mins drive away just to meet up my colleague and my boss from my hometown, right after work. Had a drinking session with them and we all had fun. It was a great night which i longed for ever since i was being relocated. Then got up the next morning and drove back to work. I'm willing to sacrifice and put up this effort to meet up with them because they gave me quite an amount of help when i had trouble in my work. I love helping others but often my help has always been deemed insignificant thus i seldom have the experience of others treating me so well and helping me. Sounds like i'm such a loser, but what to do?? I'm just another guy walking on this earth together with another 7billion people like an ant within an army of ants.
