Lights Out!! Leo's one and only blog

Hey people! Miss me? It’s been a week since I’ve left the country and so far everything’s going fine though I still miss everyone and most of all, you-know-who-you-are ~blehz~. Oh, did I mention that I smell like food everytime I go back to my condo? Hehe yes my employer provided me with a condo to stay in and I’ve got a cool Thai flatmate whom I call Ongbak! Wahahahaha! I also go jogging around my condo! There’s a swimming pool, gym, tennis court, a small mart and even a cafeteria!!! Can you believe that?!!? Food’s surprisingly not bad too. Even best is that my super duper GM will provide an internet access for my house so that I don’t need to use the free internet at Starbucks anymore(which I almost never use because the place I’m staying in is not very safe, especially at night… Singapore is still the best! …in terms of safety that is) and thus saving me some extra cash! Hope it comes soon though… Coming home to an internet-less home is really miserably boring! You start thinking of stuff that you miss dearly… in alphabetical order Family, GIRLFRIEND, Home. Guess I’ve been living a very sheltered life after all huh? My mom said its natural I feel that way because these are the factors where we receive love from. HOW TRUE!

How about work? So far the people I’ve met are generally nice. Since I’ve only been here for a week I can’t say too soon anyway. Work is going rather smoothly. First time doing experiments I was abit blur because I haven’t been doing lab work for so long my proficiency is at negative value but by god’s grace my second time was better by leaps and bounds that the 2 people guiding me said I’m fast! Hehe hope it’ll be the same as I progress through my work. The most difficult part of work is the colour part since I’m colour blind(like as if y’all didn’t know about that) and I’m having difficulty identifying some stuff. I still have so much to learn and frankly speaking, I’m enjoying it! This is the first time I enjoy working past office hours(I find myself working till 1830 when work ends at 1700)! In the army I always try to leave camp either ½ an hour or an hour early but in here, I’m so happy working! Must be the working environment I reckon. Anyway as the great Obi-wan said “you’ve taken the first step into a much larger world.” And that applies to me!

More adventures of Lionel and his amazing journeys in the working world coming up!
