Mother - Daughter

On one fine day, a young lady called her mother as usual.

They exchanged stories, asking their wellbeing, about siblings, work, weather, food, house, and other things normally shared between mother and daughter.

Then the mother asked the young lady, "How is your friend?".

Silence fill in between them.

The young lady knows which friend her mother asking about.

Without waiting any further, the young lady said, "Mother, he is not a good person. He has a hot tempered".

The mother surprised and asked how does she knows if he is an ill-tempered person as the lady just know him.

"Mother, I know and I can see it. If he could not control his emotion as well as his words at this stage, I wonder how he will be ever controlled himself when we are together?".

It may sound dramatic, but we can see what happened to the women around the globe today. On newspaper, on TV, community, and within the family itself.

The young lady continued, "Who knows, some day he will start putting his hands and foot on me. I don’t want that".

Her mother remained silence.

The young lady continued, "Mother, I am sure there will be a good person out there, it is a matter of time. Do not worry about me. I don’t want to be hurry on this matter and later of the day regret of my choice, which will be too late. I am sure you also want the best for myself".

Lastly, the mother said, "Yes, I definitely want the very best for you. I pray the best for you every time on every single day. I am not worry. Just take care of yourself first".

The lady gave a relieve sigh, smile and laugh.

Because she knows at the end of the day, if she takes care of her parents and family first, she knows a responsible and good person will come and take care of herself later on.

Therefore, she tries to put all the worrisome behind and live the moment with good memories.

Nice work place ever!

Salam w.b.t and hi all,

How are you guys doing? I miss updating my blog with useful contents. Hehehehehe…

For the last couple of months, most of the contents are about me whining my life. Hahahahaha….

I am doing very well here. Look forward to the adventure coming up in the next couple of weeks. Actually, it will be in two weeks. Jajajaja…

I am at the rig at the moment, called GDI-2. It is a land rig. I worked at this rig before, so I know the crew here. To be honest, the current location of this rig is the best so far. I love it so much, it is right opposite to the beach.

Yes!!! You read it right, BEACH!

When I was assigned to this rig, I did not know about the location of the rig as per usual. Actually, no one knows until we physically arrived here. We were like, this is the best place ever.

My cabin door is opposite to the beach. See the pictures below. My colleagues after finish their shift, they went for swimming. Most of the rig crew were also jumped into the sea and swimming while we are drilling.

See the beach here. Lets name it Dukhan beach. Lol!

I walked along the beach few days back. I want to jump into the water so much, but I don’t find it appropriate. On top of that, I don’t bring a proper long and loose shirt, as well as many eyes will see me. All here are males ya, FYI. Other reason is I work from 6PM to 6AM, but most of the time I will finish at 7 or 8AM.

It is summer here, so from 7AM up to 6.00PM, you will never want to swim in the sea. You will be like a boiling egg. Hehehehehe….

It is really good here. Well so far you are reading a good part.

When I arrived here at the rig, I was working like crazy. I did not sleep nearly ~36hours. Rig up, prepare the tools, BHA pick up, and run in hole, start drilling.

Normally they will send 4 crews, two MWD and two DD. Since the Remote Operation (RO) will cover day shift, so it will me the MWD doing night. Luckily, the other two crews were really smart and helpful. We did all the physical works you can imagine, and it was a worse situation.

Tired, at the same time still need to work like you are fully capable giving 100% of yourself.

I cannot describe the feeling I felt at that time, but I was so ready to walk away with the RO keep complaining, shouting, critize at me. Nothing good I have done to his eyes. One time, when we finished drilling the 12-1/4" section, lay down the BHA, backloaded the tools, and prepare pick up the 8-1/2" BHA at the same time. Mind you, this happened at the same time.

I was so tired, and senior scold me for the stupid thing. I know if it is serious, I will admit my mistake and learn from it. BUT! For the little stupid thing about removing the wooden pallet to put the tools on it, I won't take it easy. I have many other things that is much, much more important than this stupid thing. At that time, I finished the tools programming and that’s it! I dropped everything and off I went to sleep. Mind you again, I haven't sleep nearly ~20 hours this time.

It was so exhausted. I left without saying anything. Then of course in the evening, it gets back to me. I admit my mistake, but my patience was over. Totally over.

Anyway, we were all good after that and he advised me. Not shouting at me, which I accept it. We all know each of us was working more than we should, so tolerance is there.

I am not scare to walk away really, when things are out of control. I have nothing to lose. I have nothing to scare off. I am sure if it is not here, I will find a better place. I know this is not good behaviour, but I will do this when things are too much. If you are in my shoes, you will understand me. :)

We are 3-4 days away before finish the drilling. Rig down, and leave the wellsite off to Doha. All the crew does not feel like leaving, so DDs were trying to slow down the drilling. This place is too good to leave. Hehehe… It is great here.

I love it here.

I need to properly organised my stuff, my mind, my life and all. It has been all over the places lately. For the last couple of weeks, I am struggling to focus.

Hopefully by going for a vacation will give me a break and time to refocus and think the forward plan.

That’s it guys. I will write again soon.

Take care and Salam wbt.
