Not so good news to my dear friends in Europe, Bunny hereby declares that I am still too poor to make a trip to France in any near future. The only exception is if MYR to have an equal value to Euros, but that’s unlikely to happen.
On the other hand, 2012 will be coming with a new mission to work so hard coz we have an adventure to accomplish :)
We’ll be in the center of Asia mainland in April.

I dont bother to know the number of posts I have managed to write in this year, as much as I dont see any point of even writing blogs anymore. Az occasionally asks why I havent updated my blog as much I used to do before, when he never really stops me, and on the other hand, always encourages me to continue writing, for this blog has been the place he found me. It puts me into a realization that the actual reason why I blogged so much back then, was because I practically had nobody who’s ready to (read: forced to) listen to my ramblings and whines and cries and all the emergency things I need to tell somebody right now, any second, any minute, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. So, writing something in a blog suddenly becomes redundant lately, which is hard to explain why.
Well, I got a new job in Damansara Heights. Since August, actually, so it’s been a while. I would say it’s a dream job of mine when you speak about distance. I can go out at 9am and manage to reach office in 20 minutes, and yes, I love the flexible working hour this company has. And being in an organization with a lot of people, suddenly I feel small myself, prefer not to be so loud. Hmm and I come to think ilyani.net could be too identity-revealing. I should move so somewhere discreet with an anonymous nickname.
I have a plan (read: dream) to visit Paris next year. Paris and Colmar, at least. The budget looks impossible so far, but let’s see if I can make it.
I’ve always wanted to think that my absence from my routine from pre-job (also, pre-married) time was entirely because of hectic career life I’ve been having ever since. Say blogging, Postcrossing, writing letters, taking Bunny pics, chatting on forum, FB, etc etc.. all those activities I never failed to miss regularly. OK let me get it straight, I rather blame my job for stealing all my time but truth is I am in denial from blaming myself being a wife who is always too busy being with her husband to do anything else =,= Her husband who apparently seems to be comfortably at home all time.
Maybe it’s half true. Coz at this hour over a weekend I’m all alone sitting at home while Az is out having his own time outside, which is odd, and it’s me suddenly having time writing this post! I had a long pending post about New Delhi and it’s been more than a month T__T and I dont know if anyone is still interested to read it anymore. (Or maybe, if I still have the mood to continue blogging about the trip anymore). Worse, I’ll just keep it for the sake of our own memories only.
Oh and I’ve resigned from my job (YIPPIE!) and am in transition on moving to a new place, which currently is still unknown. *sigh*
I’ve been struggling to adjust with my new life. As in, life in reality, the one I have to see myself living long term. Not the beautiful life in 2-weeks Kashmir-India trip. The ironic fact is that I had only 3 days gap after returning from India to prepare myself for the job. It was hardly gaps even, as we were busy with my parents who came over to KL to see the apartment they bought, and as a result, surprisingly, I started my new job without any single new shopping, leaving me without a pair of proper office shoes. Heck, when was the last time I even owned a pair of office shoes? =,= It seems like I’ve lived as a student for all my life, even it wasnt that easy to feel the mood of going back to work, after 2+ years leaving it.
The new company I’m working now isnt as big as the place I used to work before. It’s located somewhere in USJ and with less than 10 people. As much as I’m okay with the people and job, the traveling time is totally nuts! We’re talking about after-work hours that it would take you 2 hours driving in the insanely congested Federal Highway to reach home at 20km away! 2 hours!!! T_T
The going route, on the other hand, is fine. I can reach office in just 30 minutes, given I have to leave before 6.50am to reach before 7.30. Although I start at 8.30, but thats the safest time to avoid heavy traffic. And we have plenty time to have breakfast and relax first. Oh yeah, Az comes with me almost everyday and he does his work in masjid nearby. Not that I am no longer an independent superwoman who-can-do-everything-by-my-own once I got married, but until I’m totally adjusted with this kind of life, I hate having to wait one hour before office start, and driving 2 hours to get home, alone. I’ve tried the komuter and bus, and am thinking to stick to it. Although it doesnt help me to reach home any earlier, but at least it’s not as stressful as driving in crazy traffic for 2 hours! And I dont have to drag Az along everyday again.
I know I cant complain as things wont be any different, but for past 2 weeks, I’ve been living a life like this, and it might sound nothing unusual to many out there, but I’m keeping a hope to escape. Somehow.
