Moving. Moving to another town. Another state. Again. Fingers cross that this will be the last time, for gawd sake. And since I gotta pack our stuff here, I had to get my sister’s help to find us a new home. (Renting, of course). Well, she managed to get one nice place: at first, the owner asked for my job title. Then he asked for a copy of my monthly salary. I was like, what the hell for? It’s not like I’m applying for a credit card? And then yesterday, my sister told me that the owner gave us a RM50 discount on the house (which we did NOT ask for, but good lah. Hurray!) but requested us to get a lawyer to draft the agreement, failing which, will be charged RM350 for lawyer’s fee that the owner will provide. Well THAT’S IT! I am asking to rent an APARTMENT, not a whole building! And besides, for the many years I’ve lived and rented other places, NOBODY has ever asked for my monthly salary slip AND a lawyer to draft the agreement! Isn’t that the job of the owner himself???? What next, Web-Est.com collision estimating from my side???
Gila lah!
I told my sister that the next time the owner calls her up, just tell him We’re no longer interested. Cis. Punya lah susah mau rent just an apartment? As if an exclusive apartment juga….
Oh well, guess we’ll have to look for another place. *sigh*
So while the man went to play pool with his friend, I was with the friend’s wife window shopping last night. Still not too many Christmas things to see at the mall, although I silently wish that they have A LOT so I could do an early Christmas shopping. It’s gonna be a budget Christmas this year since we’re moving to another state next month. So much money to spend on the movers!! It would be great if someone would actually send me some Phoenix Flowers as a goodbye gift or a welcoming gift for my new home soon. Ha ha!
And oh.. I intend to bring the stray cats that we saved a few months along. Didn’t have the heart to leave behind those cute things.. especially the little ones who complains a lot! LOL
In the meantime, I’m gonna be busy. So busy packing and selling stuff blablabla…
Today will be my last day at work.. and to say that I don’t feel a thing about it, it would be a lie. There is this mixed feelings I have. Happy that I could finally gain some life, but totally sad at the thought that I am leaving behind my colleagues who eventually end up being my real friends. Yes, friends. It is hard to get your colleagues to be your real friends, good friends. They were always there when I needed someone to talk to, they were also there when I needed a hand. Heck, they were willing to spend their weekends going to the movies with me even tho the movie I chose was not their cup of tea!
But I guess everything must come to an end. I guess my working life would end today. I guess I’ll be back doing work from home once again. Or maybe not. Ever since I got this job, I have been gone from my other social life. I hardly spoke to my parents on the phone, I don’t get to see my brother quite often.. and I hardly ever spoke to God… So I guess now would be the best time to reflect on myself, taking all the time to meditate, Yoga and of course, pray. Since we’re moving to another state in about a couple of months, I probably will only be hunting for a job by next year. *fingers cross* In the meantime, if you’d like to send a gift of sympathy to me (LOL), by all means, please do! Ha ha ha!
