Making the Wise Choice

As usual, i went to NLF every Sunday to listen to the preaching...

The topic today was Making the Wise Choice. Well, certainly, during preaching, everything revolves around making your choice to God..which is believing in Jesus, and believes in the existence of God, whereby only HE is the almight God who will bless us if we have faith in HIM.

However, from the preaching, i have applied it into my own real life situation. Well, not that i do not believe in Christianity beliefs, it's just that i have my own religion, and i am quite sure i have made the right choice. Nevertheless, attending Sunday service is a nothing-to-lose event and not-to-be-missed. I have met a lot of kind and interesting people there, and the eagerness in joining their fellowship is strong. Somehow or rather, i am still standing strong on my own will and principle.

Speaking of making the right choice, the first thing that flashed through my mind was my current career. I have been struggling under the thunder storm before this, and i have started to get the rhythm of it, fortunately. However, just as i am getting myself comfortable with the new environment, i was told that i will be transferred to another department, which seemingly as attractive as my current position. Hence, this is the part where i was considering. Is it the right choice to transfer to out? Or, is staying back doing what i am doing right now is the right choice?

This has been quite a tough choice for me to make. Why? Because there is no choice for me to choose from. I was told, to move to the new department. I was not asked, if i would want to go to that department. I can't deny that at first place, i do have the intention to have a shift to that department, but, as time goes by, i somehow have found the right ground for me. After all, i have never requested to transfer department at first place. It was my Superior who thinks that that department is where i shall belong to, because my current department needs a tiger, not a cat.

Speaking of which, this is what i was told. "There is of course a reason why i want to transfer you to that department. If i give them a kitten, i expect a tiger. Then i will let them train the kitten to be a tiger. Whether the kitten can join back the department or not, it is all dependent on future job opening." Frankly, i felt slightly offended by his statement. But what can i do, i am just a little kitten leeching the resources of my current department. I am happy with where i am now, and im not sure if i will be happy in the new department i will be shifting to.

All i can do now, is to pray. I will pray that i will make the right choice. By praying so, i don't expect things to fall into place by itself. IF, i think that remaining in the current department is the right choice, hence i will try to resist moving out. Else, if i think that switching department is the right choice, i will just follow the flow, and reach the river stream, and then into the sea. Perhaps opportunity awaits at the end of the sea, if there is.

So, what's the right choice to make? I will decide while attending my Natural Gas Course, which will stretch for one whole week, which includes plant visit and longhouse visit. Kinda interesting though looking at the itinerary. Hopefully the whole program exceeds expection!!

Good Night Middle-East-Sarawakians...May tomorrow be a better day that today....

I went for this Defensive Driving Test in Bintulu, in order for me to be able to Legally Drive in MLNG. According to the theory i read, the entry level is our D license, Defensive Driving is Intermediate, and Drifting is considered Expert. Oh well, i guess i am an Intermediate Driver now.


Doing the Slalom

Oh...No!!It was raining. No Emergency Brake Test (ABS)

When i went back to Kuching during Raya, although it was only 4 days, but it was AMAZING!!
I took bus home anyway.


Condition of the Bus. Comfy..
I wonder where i could find this hotel

Thank you to my family for the lovely bouquet..Searched all around Ipoh just to get me this..thank you


On Thursday, PETRONAS had this session called "Policy Address by President". It is more about the Planning and Budgeting Cycle for year 2010/2011 and also 5 years to come. We had this Video Conferencing simultaneously across the globe. Among the states and countries were on LIVE are Bintulu, Miri, KK, Labuan, Kerteh, Paka, KLCC, Melaka, Gurun, Cape Town, Khartoum...These are some snap shots...





This is my work place, and those are the PPE (Personal Protective Equipments) that i MUST wear while entering the plant.

This is where i work. Menara Kidurong Bintulu, in case you have never been there. Many people don't know this is my office. When they reach there, they say, "WOW!So nice!!". But then..it is far from MLNG, so..yeah..pros and cons.

From Far, you can see the road condition
Up-close looks better

Here comes my first CHEF career. I tried cooking several dishes, and not all are captured though. Somehow, it's a good start.

Marinated Oyster Sauce Chicken
French Bean with Garlic
French Fries + French Fries with fried chicken powder (curious how it would tastes like)
Fried Chicken
Fried Fish *not so delicious
Fried Chicken with Fries

Brief update on myself

Hi guys,

It has been quite sometime since my last post in this blog....Gotta apologize as i was kinda busy though..

Well, just a brief update about my work in MLNG.

I joined PETRONAS since 16th of April, and ever since, i have attended quite a few trainings and joined quite a number of Departments as well. I have attended PIPE (Petronas Induction Program for new Executives) which have consumed 2 weeks in KL. It was awesome!! You can refer to my FB for those photos which were uploaded by those PIPEESS a while back. Then, i came over to MLNG, Bintuluto join PDD (Project Development Department). I consider it as a slip of fate. Why? Well, simple. I was told by my colleagues and bosses that only experienced engineers/ executives can join that department. So, i guess that wasn't a good start for me after all. Oh well, life goes on. I love the environment anyway. My office is located several hundred meters from the plant. So to speak, it has slightly cleaner and fresher air. :)

Then, i was assigned to Fairus under MDD (MLNG Dua Debottlenecking) Project. Even my name card is printed with that. I guess my name card going to expire soon. I have joined this project for nearly a month before i got attached to ENA/2 (Engineering Area 2) doing maintenance on MLNG Tiga Plant (Model Plant for LNG). The same thing applies, i have attached there for a month too under Syahrul. Both of my supervisors are very experienced, very kind, and super uber cool!! My life starts to ROCKZ ever since.

Well. i have just finished another attachment at Instrument Engineering Department under System - dealing with PLC and DCS. I have to admit, i have not learnt much, but the exposure i had is enough for me to troubleshoot some minor problems in the plant. Thank you to Boon and Mr. Ting for their generous guidance.

Oh ya, i forgot to mention. Each corporations do have a time-out session for their staffs to relax. So do my departmentsss. Why do i add the 's' behind? Let's take a step back at my blog.

I have moved from PDD to MDD, MDD to ENA/2, ENA/2 to ENC/3 in just 5 months. Well, i see it as a good start anyway as i am getting to know people along the way. Some people have told me, how MLNG people are different from others!! I strongly doubt that. You know why? MLNG people are as friendly as other OPUs employees are. As far as i know, those i know of of course, they are extremely friendly. Okay, skip that and go back to the point. Well, i am lucky to join TWO (2) Time-Outs in 2 weeks. I guess non of us has ever done that. This is because, 2 weeks ago, ENA/2 was having a time-out session at Tanjung Batu Beach, and coincidentally, i was having my attachment there. Then, last Friday, ENC/3 was having theirs as well. AND guess what, i happened to attach to that department as well. So, there i go again!!
I LOVE BBQ CHICKENs!!

Alright, end of story. Now, i am quite blur about my progress in MLNG. I am not sure where i will be joining for the next few months. However, according to one of the manager i have met, he told me i will be joining ENC/3 very soon as they have specially created a post for me in the department, most probably Instrument & Control under the ever-experienced Shahrul Rashid, the TP. It will be a good start for me if it really comes true.

My plan for the next few months, i will be attending trainings, assessments and the like. Oh ya, did i mention that? I will be finishing my probation period next week (15/10/2009). Hurray!!

Enough of work-talk. Speaking of leisure time. I have wasted quite a lot of my time playing Dota for the first 4 months, and yeah, now i am in transition phase from DOTA-Freak to Sports-freak. So to those of you who wants to meet me, you can meet me in KKB (Kelab Kidurong Bintulu) everyday from Monday to Saturday.

Monday, Wednesday, Friday
7.00pm to 9.00pm
Swimming Pool

Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday
7.00pm to 9.30pm (8.00am to 10.00am for Saturday)
Badminton Court

Sunday
Rest Day

Basically, that's how i spend my time in Bintulu. The only place i go for some shopping is Farley and Sing Kwong in Medan Jaya.

Oh ya, i have not mentioned this too! I start cooking already. So far, i have cooked several dishes which tasted just as awesome as the dishes served in Kuching. Let me list them out for ya.

Successful Dishes
Fried Rice
Fried Chicken
French Fries
Chicken Soup with Jagung
Steamed Chicken Soup
French Bean with garlic
Fried Noodle
Omelet
Marinated Chicken

Failed Dish
FISH! Not delicious at all!

I have not cooked any pork yet (Housemate issue). Hence, i will be cooking something new soon. Wish me luck!

Oh ya, besides sports, i have started attending Sunday Service too. I am following this cool church called New Life Fellowship. I get to know friendly people. I get to learn more about Christianity. Yet, i am still a Buddhist. No worries! :)

Speaking of savings, i have committed myself in several saving plans which i am not so sure whether they are good or not. But the one i want to share with you guys is the PTC - Pay to Click. It is the easiest, and yet most promising investment i have done so far. Credit to Vincent Dee for helping me. You can refer to my previous post for more information.

I have planned my leave until new year next year. So, i will be in KL from 23/12 until 3/1. If you are planning for a gathering around that period, do include me ok?

Let's talk about the places and activities i have joined so far.
I have joined Church activities (mostly outing and eating and bbq-ing and camp-fire).
I have attended House Warming.
I have attended Birthday Parties.
I have gone to Taman Tumbina to look at the animals.
I have gone for fishing with Danny and Elaine at Kampung Pandan.
I have had a lot of BBQs in Bintulu. 3 times in Tanjung Batu Beach, 1 time in MLNG housing, 1 time at my own house, 1 time at Roy's House. 1 time at Lucas's House.
I have celebrated MoonCake Festival in Bintulu. It was Le-Gen-Da-Ry!
I have taken 11 hours bus ride from BTL-KCH and another 11 hours ride from KCH-BTL.
I have gone for clubbing with Ed and Chun Liang in Bintulu. We drank at 3 places in one night (Blueberry Cafe, Top Joy, Casablanca).
I have super duper cool Mentor (Pantaleon) and bosses (Mr. Loo, Hj. A Rahman, ZB, Ting, Syahrul, Fairus, Shahrul, Hj. Baharin and the list goes on).

Who Says MLNG people are Weird!!

So, i guess that's enough update about myself.
I am going to try to give an update on myself as frequent as possible. Oh ya, 3 days back, it was my Lunar Birthday!
Happy Birthday to me!
