My current state....

am almost in the state of lifeless... haha... been working since mid oct till now.... was back for 3 weeks just before xmas for my sis's wedding....then off to job again.... this time we did some tooling sea trials for our next project in japan.... then back for another week...... then off to another project in s'pore!! haha... and after 8 weeks, here i am........

my first experience was a jacket installation somewhere off terengganu... it was a very interesting job.... a little involvement from the ROV department....after the job, the vessel proceeded to s'pore... for the winter maintenance program... this is where i started to do more practical jobs..... scaffolds being erected and places not accessible before this are being maintained.... it was a great experience.... working daily 0600-1800 for 7 days a week..... after 4 weeks, am felling all worked out.....


the crew boat which i took to the project site.... it was a long 8 hours journey..... thankfully, the seat was comfy and spacious and i slept the whole way...haha... when i got up, i saw everyone busy offloading and started climbing into the crew basket....

bosses busy looking at the million dollar tools.....






room..... 2 men room...wif lcd tv and limited astro channels.... well... not that u really haf time to watch la.... would rather sleep during free time..... :) room comes with attached bathroom and 2 steel locker..... since we work on different shifts, we never see each other in the room..... 100% privacy.... hehe....
