Shit! My previous post about books was missing due to the Sitemap XML plugin’s not updated. Damn, kinda depressed with that lost. (Baru nak ego boosting dengan collection books yang dah penuh 4 kotak. Itulah, sape suruh post dengan niat kerek!! LOL)

Anyway, my own life is getting busier than ever. I wish I can have the power to control times; stop it when I need more time, and fast-forward it when I wanted too. Okay, I’ll pass on “reversing-the-time-feature” because then I will need to relive again all the sorrow that happened.

And apart from getting busier, certain things did happened to me previously. Just jotting down the items since I can’t really point the date it happened without checking the calendar.

1) Place to call home.

My parents are no longer staying in Muar. This happened in the last week of Ramadhan when they decided to move to Prima Saujana, Kajang for the new house. It is finished earlier than expected, so my parents was so eager to celebrate Raya in the new house. Only…

I didn’t share the same eagerness..

Why? Because I love my birthplace so damn much. It was a freaking 23 years of living and growing in that small place that makes me went sentimental due to their decision. It’s the most innocent place I’d ever knew. It’s the most lovable place I’d rather stay compared to this hellish, hectic, and horrendous KL.

In other words, it just touched the “small village” heart of mine.

And not to mention it was too far from my workplace. According to the Google Maps, it was around 35 to 40km to my office! Not to mention that I need to go through the traffic jams and stuffs. *sigh*

So, currently I don’t have any real place to call “my” home. Or “my village”. It’s either – “my parents” home, or “my previous village”. It was also the last Raya I ever had in Johor. (Oh yeah, even though my parents insists on having the Raya celebration in Kajang, I went back to Johor to have my own celebration. Without my parents. That’s how stubborn I am).

What happened to the apartment in Tasik Selatan? As of now, it is still there – and I’m staying there in the weekdays so that I can easily commute to work. I went back to Kajang only in weekends. But my parents have plans to rent or lease the apartment out by end of this year. I am not going to pay for the rent if I can’t call it my own property by the way..

And due to that, I am currently active in looking a new home to call it my own. I am going to buy a house. I’m still searching, by the way. Can’t really make up my mind on whether to choose.. erm.. Sg. Buloh, or Shah Alam? Tried to survey Damansara area but it is too expensive and out of my budget, so I might opt for Shah Alam or Sg. Buloh, but yet to be determined. As long as its not more than 20km away from my office, I think I should be fine.

(20km would be more or less the same distance with Bandar Utama to Tasik Selatan – but the jam from there to office is too much for me, so I am looking for a not-very-congested area with easy commute).

My requirements are not that high. I am looking for house that is freehold, landed, and not more than 20km from my office, or its equivalent of not going to spend more than 1 hour to reach office in normal morning jam condition. My budgets are not that high too, only 250k and below. Got any suggestions? Leave it in the comment pls..

To conclude the first section, I am busy due to..

• Spending my weekends surveying the area and looking for suitable houses.
• Spending my free time in the office Googling and reading ads for home.
• Spending my free time outside the office keeping my relationship going hot with my girlfriend (eh?)

2) Status that changed.

Okay, here’s a public announcement. I am in a relationship again with a girl. Yes, it’s a real relationship now. Yes, I love her. Yes, I am trying my best to make it work. Yes, I am planning to marry her.

But I just keep this thing laying low. I guess I’m too tired to be asked, or to be too excited about the relationship and too worried about the relationship going down the drain. The best lessons I’ve learned from my previous experiences is: when you keep it low from everybody else, you have full control over your relationship.

I don’t have to listen too much from other unrelated people about how I should treat her.

I don’t have to listen too much from other unrelated people about how she actually feel.

I don’t have to listen too much from other unrelated people about how I should actually feel.

The best part is, I am keeping the communications open with her without any bias. So, I am not only her boyfriend, I am also her best friend, her trustee, and her place to share everything, without the interference from other party. That’s how I’m going to keep it. With her, I can be my true self. With her, I don’t have to pretend. With her, I don’t have to feel intimidated, nor intimidating her.

So, general FAQ:

Who? I will introduced her in person whenever I got a chance. She’s currently living in Kemaman with her brother. Her name is Nurashikin; I called her Kinkin; but I’m no Mawi

When is my relationship official? 29/09/2009. But I’ve known her for five months or so before officiating the date with her.

When will I get married? As soon as I can afford to. We both have our own dream wedding ceremony; and I also wanted to give us a better life.  I am not yet ready financially to be someone’s husband, and I wanted to fulfill both of our wedding dreams (at least I don’t want to do some lame shit like mentioned by Effi in here). So, I am going to find myself a place to call home, before officiating my queen to the throne. Let the throne be ready first, shall we?

3) The job

Not much about the job anyway. But I am getting busier since now I’m attached to two departments at the same time to fill in the lack of manpower. So, this is the biggest contribution of why I am hardly seen online now, let alone to update my blogs!
