news..

received a news this morning....

i'm scheduled to go to phuket tomorrow..

to join vessel in ranong port, phuket on 17th march..

my next call of duty awaits...

me

this is me....

working full time as a seaman...

sometimes its hard for people to see that i'm away not because i wanted to but the nature of my work requires me to be away months at a time...

recently my tour of duty landed me in Vietnam..

it was a nice experience for me as that was the first time for me there..

life was hard at first as there is no halal food around. i have to change my diet to just instant noodles, egg and corn flakes and sometimes bread. but most of the time, it was instant noodles and eggs and mars bars.

now i'm at home waiting for my next tour of duty....

here are some of the photos while i'm at museum of war remnants...

enjoi...

sorry bout the poor quality, as all the photos are taken using camera phone..

this is a picture of me wearing a breathing apparatus or BA for short.. this was after a fire drill conducted on board...

a short story...

being this is my first post.. i will put up something of my favourite..

originally done by blink 182...

Push it out, fake a smile
Avert disaster, just in time
I need a drink, cause in a while
Worthless answers from friends of mine
It's dumb to ask, cool to ignore
Girls possess me, but they're never mine
I made my entrance, avoided hazards
Checked my engine, I fell behind........I fell behind

She makes me feel like it's raining outside
And when the storm's gone I'm all torn up inside
I'm always nervous on, days like this like the prom
I get too scared to move, cause I'm a fuckin' boy

Remember when I was in the grocery store, now's my time
Lost the words, lost the nerve, lost the girl, left the line
I would wish upon a star, but that star, it doesn't shine
So read my book with a boring ending
A short story of a lonely guy........Who fell behind

She makes me feel like it's raining outside
And when the storm's gone I'm all torn up inside
I'm always nervous on, days like this like the prom
I get too scared to move, cause I'm a fuckin' boy

She makes me feel like it's raining outside
And when the storm's gone I'm all torn up inside
I'm always nervous on, days like this like the prom
I get too scared to move, cause I'm still just a stupid worthless boy
