Be on time..

Working life is not as what I expected it to become like what I thought last time. Woke up early in the morning during my school-goers age is just to make sure I didn't late to catch up my school bus. I used to come late to school during my primary level. Maybe like once in a week. Not because I woke up late, instead my Dad is the one who wake me up as early as 5.30am. Having a school which was far away from my house (~ 20 km with gravel roadways) caused not only me but all my 'geng bas sekolah' came late to school once in a while.

However, the situation changed when I stepped into a secondary level. Living in a hostel for 6 years started since primary 6 until form 5 really gave me lots of precious experiences. At this time, waking up early in the morning is a must as I have to compete with others to use the bathroom. It is either waiting in a long queue or else the water supply will running low when it comes to my turn.. How chellenging is it huh.. I learn how to survive that time..

Then, come to my matriculation level. The college that I stayed was so complete with infrastructure. New building some more and my batch was so lucky to be the first staying there and also be the first to vandalize it.. Hahaha... No more wakes up early (at least not everyday) and no more competing for bathroom. But again, have to be panctual in any lecture and tutorial or else you will be considered absent which might finally effects your cumulative marks at the ends of semester..

Having lots of experiences before help me to cope with my new life in university. If others might experienced the so called 'culture shock', me, definitely not.. Kelantan is not what most of us expected. I can say that Kelantan is a good place for those wanna concentrate more on their study. No cinema, no shopping complex, no place for growing teens and the list goes on. However, FYI pub is still available.. Ever been in one of them once during new year eve and I still remember we got caught by police traffic. It was not because our driver's alcohol breath exceeds the alcohol analyser (they didn't check it on him even though we were a lil bit tipsy that time).. It was just because the car that we rent got problem with the 3rd brake light..

We got summoned but luck was always in our side. The car rental's people was the one paid it.. Hikksss...

I better stop here or else this will be a long winded post.. Out of topic already..

Actually what had happened today is I almost late to stamp my punch card. Can you guys imagine the manual machine puncher. Yup, if most of you now using the thumb print method to record your attendence in you working place, my place is still using the manual one.. When I was about to reach the machine this morning, the music tones started to play showing that it is 8am already. I rushed and stamp my card quickly. I thought I got a red colour but it is still black. When I asked my staff, then I knew the machine will stamp the time in red colour started at 8.01 am. Huh, how lucky I'm..

This is exactly look like the one we have here

Well, this is my second time actually. The first time was about a few months back but due to afraid of the red colour, I just let my card unstamp and just write the time manually. If the office people asks me, just said that I forgot to punch. A frequent accepted reason I guess.. Hahaha..

Better wake up early next time!!
