I was dead busy for the last 5 weeks...
2 more weeks’ ar... WAHAHAHA
And just realised that my blog was quite dead, so I’m making it alive again...
Actually, I want to say thank you guys, for spending time to read this blog to get my updates about me myself here.

It’s really sweet when they ask why you never updated your blog...
Thanks...

Today, it’s Friday and my 9th week here in Mexico...

Now, I’m using Microsoft word to update my blog post, because there is no internet in the place I’m living in...
I’m sitting in the dark living room. The lights in the living room were spoilt since the day I step into this house.
I could only rely on the kitchen’s light so it’s not totally dark in the living room.

Woah, time flies away from you when you are hardworking haha!

From the last five weeks, things happened...

There are good and bad things, But what the matters the most is, I learnt something out of here...

I’ve been quite childish in Mexico, as in more playful and more happening than I’m in Singapore...



Overly crazy


Someone to kiss,Please!


Extremely Bored...


My hair is getting longer...=D

PIGGY, BOO!!

In Singapore, I always look at work as my first priority.
When I’m in Mexico, the things that I used to have in Singapore, it wasn’t here...
For example, Internet access...

Internet was my daily routine to get updates, check mails, looking for research, chatting with friends on msn and playing games...

That was my routine... My daily routine...

My working place has internet access however I was required to produce work there and there is no need for me to use internet...

Although my boss did not restrict us from using the internet, our colleagues were there to look at what we are doing in the work place...

When I reach home in Mexico, there is nothing that I’m looking forward to...
Because life in Mexico is simple for me...

There is no internet at home; only television and the entire channel are in Spanish...

When we reach home, we cook, we eat, we wash dishes and we sleep...
I got used to it without internet...

And I got a hand phone that will never ring except in the morning which wakes me up for work...

For 2 months in Mexico, whenever I look at the phone, I was always wondering if there is someone in Singapore calling me...

Every single day, I hope my phone ring in Mexico...

I missed home, I missed my family, I missed my brothers, I missed my friends, I missed the FOOD AND I REALLY MISS YOU !!!

Almost every weeks I webcam my parent in the company, I could see them; I could hear them but I could not talk to respond their question, but could only type and reply them.

Hearing their voice through the earpieces was great... It really makes my day...
I realised that growing up is not just about being independent or being strong , by growing up, it means to love people who cares about you, your family and your friends...

There are many times that I was overly high and overly crazy haha...
I train for my upcoming napfra test at home.

There is one time when I ate two muffins before I train, I was really hungry and it tasted so yummy... I did multi sets of push- up and sit-up and moment later, I don’t feel well, and went straight to the toilet and thrown up the muffins.

It’s sounded stupid, but it’s really funny.
I did Jumping jack till my legs cramp.

I was so bored I made videos using my laptop and post it on Facebook... That was really extreme...
And the reason why I was bored was...

The Disappointing part that make me grow:

My working environment wasn’t that bad however when it comes to the weekends, no one bother to show us around Mexico.

It is very disappointing on how we are being treated here.

During the first few weekends, we were not brought out to see Mexico by our person in charge, with the reason that he was busy.

So we make our way to trip explore Mexico ourselves.

Our colleagues told us that it’s might not be safe to go Mexico City. However, during the weekends, they did not offer to bring us out either.
Our roommate brought us out to see a pyramid in Mexico city which is quite far from the city itself.


Eventually, on their independence day, their national day, it was a four days holiday including the weekends.

Despite of showing us around Mexico, we were treated like Mexican here. Our Person in charge have never once offered to bring us out of this town and expected us to know our way to the attraction places in Mexico.

Every morning when we on the TV, there will always be news reporting on killings on the street in town or city.

“4 men founded dead; Body hangs upside down with their dicks in their mouth.”
“Drug war: 4 men shot to death in Temixco” (this town is just miles away from our living place)

The killings are rather near to the main attraction places in Mexico.

Well, it’s easy for you guys to say you can travel out yourself without their help.
“You can check on the internet where to go and book a hotel and spend a few days there.”

First, the internet issues, we do not have internet at home and we are somehow being watched by people around us on what we were doing in the company.
We could not probably be using internet to check on the attraction places.

Second, we don’t speak Spanish. It’s hard to communicate. But the people are friendly, thanks god.

But still, we got so sick of this restriction and we make our trip to Mexico City ourselves to look at their attraction places. We simply give up hope on hoping anyone will bring us out anymore.

Thank god we are safe; thank god we have a good time.

We went to look for hotel and stay in for 3 days two nights.

We went to the museum, visit the pyramid within the city and brought souvenirs.
(Please really appreciate it, because it’s hard to get them)

We stick with the crowd and avoid deserted streets, we kept the wallet in the front pocket and we were always looking at each other’s back and getting ready to throw our bags and fight...

It might sound drama, but I find it pretty cool on how my course mate and I got look after one another.

We are brothers here because it’s just the two of us. We chat about everything here because that’s the only thing we could do during the night time.

Somehow these are the brick walls in Mexico I faced, eventually I learnt and overcome it.

I was angry because of the poor hospitality and the way we was treated here but afterwards, I got over it, because I can make it myself out despite the possible dangerous exposed to us.

I prayed that nothing will happen to us here and the Poland people who are definitely enjoying themselves now!

HAHA STAY SAFE THERE AND COME BACK WITH GIVE ME MY GIFTS, IF NOT I CURSED YOU GUYS! Haha just kidding k!

We get back safe, we will and I have to...
2 more weeks ar, 2 more weeks... WAHAHAHA

"Don't find love, let love find you. That's why it's called falling in love, because you don't force yourself to fall, you just fall."

Haha, I found the quote from a very interesting friend =D



Just before I end this, I see changes in me...
I’m getting warmer...
Real warm...=D

To be continued...

Can you 安靜?

Another week with 2 months left...
Work,eat, bath then sleep...
This is what we do here...
Nothing much...

I got my pay this week, it's 1000 peso...
Woah, quite alot I think I think I can save some money...

Work:
Working on a mud guard for Volkswagen Truck (pickup)

Sketching and scanning the 3d surface on the laptop quite tedious because we need to paste sticker on the car surface before scanning it...

Excited and after pasting the stickers, it's tired...

Anyway, I somehow find joy in doing stuff, even in doing shit work...
Like cleaning the truck wheel...
Stain with muddy texture, which look like shit somehow...

My weekends:
Everyone is busy, and no one bring us out...
We have to plan our weekends to go out and explore the places...

They somehow treat us like we are the locals here...
HAHA...
Never mind, I plan my way out and enjoy my weekends...
It's boring this week end,
Hope we can get our ass out of the company on weekends...
Where are we going tomorrow!?

Last weekends:
Anyway Went to swim on last Sunday...
It's fun but it's expensive...
$17 dollars...


Pain in the gastric:
On Thursday,
Maybe I ate the wrong food or the chili is just so powerful,
I got gastric pain after that...

In pain during working time...
Ouch,
Ouuuucccch,
PPPain,
HHelp me,
i want to die,
Kill meeee...

I keep repeating this phase, until the pain just disappear...
and when I eat my dinner,
It happened again...

Lie on the bed after I ate the medicine, I farted all the way!
HAHA!
Smelly~
And then in the midnight,
My friend wake up to vomit and it's gastric problem I think...
Or maybe my fart too smelly...

Anyway, He didn't went to work on Friday...
I was lefted alone in the company...
Sketching alone...

Songs that keep me alive...

"Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go? So why don't we go?

Oh, this could be the end of everything
So why don't we go somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know
Somewhere only we know"

Anyway thanks Stephanie for replying the email...
And thanks for the song...
It's emo!
HAHA I think sending email to people is quite fun,
Waiting for reply, then reply again...
You never know what is the next reply gonna be like!
Exciting I guess...



I was so crazy over this song...
Somehow it's the melody...
安靜

我根本不想分開
Wo gen ben bu xiang fen kai
I don't even want to break up

為什麼還要我用微笑來帶過
Wei she me hai yao wo yong wei xiao lai dai guo
Why must I depend on a smile to tide me through?

我沒有這種天份
Wo mei you zhe zhong tian fen
I don't have the ability

包容你也接受他
bao rong ni ye jie shou ta
To accept both you and him

不用擔心的太多
Bu yong dan xin de tai duo
Don't worry too much

我會一直好好過
Wo hui yi zhi hao hao guo
I'll still be fine

你已經遠遠離開
Ni yi jin yuan yuan li kai
You've already gone far away

我也會慢慢走開
Wo ye hui man man zou kai
And I will slowly walk away

為什麼我連分開都遷就著你
Wei she me wo lian fen kai dou qian jiu zhe ni
Why is it that I have to accommodate you even when [we] break up?

我真的沒有天份
Wo zhen de mei you tian fen
I really don't have the ability

安靜的沒這麼快
An jing de mei zhe me kuai
Staying silent doesn't come so fast

我會學著放棄你
Wo hui xue zhe fang qi ni
I will learn to give you up

是因為我太愛你
Shi ying wei wo tai ai ni
Because I love you so much

A place, where I start to realise...

Work:
Another week is gone...
It's pretty normal this week, as there is quite a lot of work to be done this week...
I did a mould for a cup holder...
And it took me one and a half day to finish it...
It's pretty exciting to do something that is going to be produce out by the company...
YAY!
But I was kinda of stress up because it's going to be produce out from the machine in the workshop so I cannot make any mistake on the mould...
Because one mould cost a bomb...

Now,I finally understand that it's never easy to do a rapid prototype
(Mass Production)...


It's maths, calculating the dimension just kills me...

The Locals:
Anyway, the people here are really friendly...

And on friday, it's their drinking day, where they go out and drink...
My course mate and I didn't follow them cause we just don't feel comfortable, I guess...

However, yesterday, things happened...

When we were asleep, my roommate who is a Mexican brought his friend back home...
All of them work for air design...

Our room door doesn't have a proper lock, so people can just bang in and say hi...
Well, they did...
And they keep asking us to drink with them...
One thing for sure was, they were all drunk...
It's their culture and it wasn't good to refuse them...
Just to make them leave, I drank half a bottle...
And they opened another bottle to my course mate...
Somehow drinking violate his religion rules, so I drank on his behalf...
One and a half bottle is nothing to some, but finishing up one and a half bottle is something for me when I keep drinking it fast into to my tummy...

And they lefted our room soon after I finish up my drink...
I was tired, and felt really disgusted by the beer...
Btw I hate beer for it's awful taste...
That make me wonder why people love beer so much... GOSH!...

Anyway, I almost puked because of the fast drinking...
And I have plastic bag beside my bed just in case...
HAHA! JOKE!
I'll be so dead next month cause I promised them I drink with them...

Popular in my race:
For some reason, I felt that I'm kinda of weirdo to them...
Because my course mate is a Malay and somehow they just treat him like a Mexican...
Well as for me...
Where ever place I go in Mexico, I was always looked at...
To the Mexican local here, I guess they have never see a Chinese guy before...
So I'm pretty weird to them...
Many thought I'm a Japanese, they just keep bowing their head down, and subconsciously I follow them too... Bowing and bowing...
Here, I learnt to smile at people who I don't know...
They simply smile back...
Somehow if I were to smile to someone in Singapore,
I don't think I will get any respond...
HAHA!

Well, it feel good when you smile at people, people smile back to you...
Anyway, I seem to be more attractive here in Mexico, cause I attract alot of attention from the girls here even in the company and the workshop...

COOL!FEEL LIKE A SUPERSTAR!


Dreaming:

This week, I keep dreaming...
Dreaming about people, that are close to me...
Dreaming about my family, my friends...
At least,it make me feel closer to home,
At least,it make me feel closer to people I loved and cared...
At least,I dont feel much alone anymore...

Although it's just a dream, it feel so real...
It got me so darn worried about people getting chicken pox...
Fear from my dream...

Everyday, We walk to work...
Everyday, When I reached home, I was like a man doing house chores...
Somehow, I'm getting used to it...
I won't say that I'm like a maid anymore...
It's man who do house chores,
It's me a man, who do house chores...=D
MAN!

8 more weeks to go...
I feel like a caterpillar morphing into a butterfly...
HAHAH!

Relationship, is getting scarier ...

Greeting from mexico =D
Currently, I'm still in the office using Internet.
So trying to get some updates done here...



Well, I'm doing fine here...
And start to feel like a designer here as well...

It's only been five days since I reached here,
I started to miss home...
Because everything here is so different from Singapore...
And I really need to adapt to the environment here.

I hope you guys learn to cherish what you have in Singapore,
Because,
Singapore is really great, although it's small, but it's really great...
You dont have to bath in the morning with cold water,
you dont have to get clear water from the convenient store...
Ya and everything is available in Singapore, you see...
So learn to cherish things there.

Everyday, I'm looking forward to work,
Because it's seem that I wanted time to fly as fast as possible...
It's going to be like three months in Mexico,
It's three months here...
I just realised it's quite a long period here...
I have the uncertain feeling,
It's not pleasant...

Maybe I'm just scared to be all alone here,
Everyone in Singapore, Having their sip and they share their thoughts with one another everyday through msn, through facebook...
Meet out for lunch, meet out for dinner, Meet out for movie...
Suddenly I just realised how much fun it would be in Singapore...

When I online at 7 am, it's 8 pm in Singapore,
the time different is 13 hours,
And I can't really get through the wireless here,
Sometime the internet work, sometime it don't...
It's seem that I'm really breaking away from Singapore...


I guess, it's really time to overcome this all by myself...

It's kinda of lonely here, although there is other course mate with me here, I just feel the same=/
HAHA! This time round, I admit I'm scared,
But I dont know what i'm scare of...
Really Hope I can get rid of this feeling...

Anyway, some thoughts about relationship in Mexico...
Well, I started to have alot of different thoughts here,
It's quite scary to get into relationship.
Love can be just a sudden feeling, maybe it's going to last for one months or maybe a year, and that it...
Break and people get hurt...
Is love something like that?
I find that it's really scary,

Like how people can just leave someone after years of relationship...
By saying, I no longer hold that feeling for you anymore, when the other partner is trying so hard to do whatever things to please the one he love...

I don't understand this at all...
Feeling is uncertain,
That what I can say...
I seen alot and I heard alot...

The impression of Relationship...
Afterall, Love is still wonderful, not all relationship is like this I hope...

A message to someone who won't know about this blog...

This time,
I have done wrong,
Sorry for being a jerk,
For doing so much as a friend...

I know how painful it is for you to go through this all alone,
Cause I have been through it before,
If I could take your pain away, I will take them all away...

Sorry, that is all I could say...

But I'm definitely not the right person for you...
Just never the right one for you...
I guess someone else would definitely be better than me...
I'm so sorry...
Please forgive me...

Farewell for three months, two months and three weeks...

Hey guys,
I'm flying off to Mexico for my internship for two months and three weeks,
Hmmm,
At first, When I was chosen for the Mexico Internship was damn Happy...
But when I'm about to fly off,
I did not get so excited over it...
But anyway,
I'm still going to fly off, ALONE to Mexico with 4 transit flight...
From Singapore to Japan, Japan to San Francisco, San Francisco to Mexico...
It's going to be 23 hr 44 mins flight...
GOOD LUCK TO MY BUTT...

Anyway,
I'm kinda of scared to be alone going off all by myself,
But I think it's going to be a very different kind of experience for me to grow up...
This time,
I'm going for three months,
I think I will change...
To be more independent,
More man=DD

By the way,
Take care guys,
I'll be fine there,
I hope I can learn a lot there,
And when I come back I'll be someone even better...
HAHA !

Chicken pox...
Recovering, thanks to motherly Love...

Ya, No good food for the next three months they say...
according to the traditional Chinese, CHICKEN POX IS A VIRUS THAT CAN LEAD TO OTHER SERIOUS ILLNESS...
So cannot play a fool...

Most likely you will be attending my funeral...

Anyway, Poxed all over my body,
And many things are delayed...

Are you with me...
Or just passing by?
