Gonna get over you

Salam w.b.t and hello all,
I would like to share one song I have been listening for the last couple of weeks.

Nothing fancy, I like the dance and how she enjoying herself dancing around like none cares.
Enjoy, and dance even it is raining.

A great time at home

Salam w.b.t and hi all,

This is one of the entries I should have published weeks ago. This is about how I managed to get a last minute holiday.

###

After all the rig days.

Still need to standby at the other rig while waiting for client to officially declare Lost in Hole. Waiting game on for days and yesterday afternoon after having-more-than-enough-sleep, drop an email to my manager.

 "I need time off for couple of days". And basically, the answer is no.

 Ok fine. Nothing to discuss then.

 "Screw everything". Hahaha...

 8 PM, pull myself together to stand my ground as per senior's nagging me, finally call my manager.

 "I need holiday from now for one week - 7days"

 "Where are you going? In Doha or out of Qatar? Why? Urgent?....And list goes on, on, and on.

 Put my answers short and precise as per senior's instruction while he was standing behind me.

 At the other end, sh*t, oh man, bla bla bla.

 Finally, "You have 5 days".

 Ok. That's good enough and told my senior about it.

 He said, don't bother. Make it 7.

I called my mother, 3 AM Malaysian time, telling her about me going home and I had to use her credit card to pay the flight ticket since I left all my cards in Doha. I was still at the rig, remember?

Less than 24 hours later on 13 April, I flew home. The ticket was really expensive, but money means nothing when my heart is nowhere to be found apart from home. On the flight, I felt unbelievable that I am going home.

I miss home, I miss my comfort zone, and the warmth of being with my beloved ones.

I miss being in the place I know, where I know I will be safe.

Qatar is nothing, apart from work. It is time for me to re-energized and go home.

I told none about my homecoming, only my mother and sisters. I just want a personal time. However, I was still working at home. Finishing the control cards, preparation for the school. Regardless, I had a great time by being at home. Nothing can beat that.

My mother cooked most of my favourite foods, buy all the local delicacies, and many things. Foods are one of the things I miss so much. Nasi Lemak, Apam Balik, Cendol, Sambal Sotong, Sambal Cili Api, and many more. You will never get any of these here in Qatar. 

On 19 April, I flew back to Qatar and came back to work on the next day.

The next day, my manager asked me how was my holiday. I said to him, "I should have ask for 2 weeks". He was like, "Bluergh".

Hello All

Hi all,


I am still here. It is just I am a little bit busy with the jobs, juggling my life, as well trying to keep myself healthy.


I am in Doha, after got back from a really, really short holiday last week. After being bored at the rig, I dropped an email to my manager I want to take time off. 24 hours later, I was on the flight on my way home.


It was so last minute, I will share later. Now, my manager just put me on standby in town, which is good. So, I can complete my trainings here and meet the dentist.


Anyhow, if anything, just drop me an email at sitinor.atiqah@yahoo.com or at my Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nor.atiqah.9693.


I will update again the blog.


Take care all.


Salam w.b.t and chow.
