The previous weekend was my last in JB. It also marked the end of a 13-year affair with YTL. I first got acquainted with YTL Power back in '97 when I first got my scholarship. I first stepped into a YTL power station back in '98 for industrial training. I joined YTL Paka as a staff in 2001. And I got transferred to Pasir Gudang in 2002.
Nevertheless, people do move on and I guess it was also a long overdue move. So, although there was sadness, there were also feelings of excitement & anxiety. Excited to return back to home, anxious to start a new life and looking forward to a new job. I don't really know if things will pan out well after this, after so many years of rather comfortable and complacent environment. Nevertheless, nothing ventured nothing gained.
So it's time to start a new life. The beginning of better things to come (I hope). As for the memories and wonderful experience in JB, I would always cherish and remember. It was ironic that in my early years in JB, I used to complain about the place (with some other friends who shared the same thoughts). But after so many years, I've grown to call JB home, admitting I'm already a Johorean and generally liking the place. Good bye to my fellow colleagues, friends and KLite still in JB!
At the moment, my to-do list while I'm back in KL are as follows:
- Report to work at the new company on 1 Oct.
- Start renovating and preparing my new home.
- Catching up with long lost KL friends, ex-classmates etc.
- Putting up with those bloody traffic jams and chaotic parking.
- Leading a more healthy lifestyle (going to gym at my condo, cycling again, jogging at Lake Gardens??)
- Looking forward to a host of new activities that KL has to offer (more IEM talks, theater shows at KLPAC?, ....)
