Day 1- Jakarta, Indonesia

International Airport in Jakarta

Finally a proper meal... Room Service... Salad Suck! Pizza so-so...

My 1 BEDROOM SUITE!!

Seriously, it wasn't funny this morning when I woke up at 630am and saw the following sms from my new boss," Please call me Monday morning. For your 1st day, I'd like you to to fly over to Jakarta." I was like "!!!!!!!!!" I mean...this was a little sudden and totally unprepared for... I was... err... SHOCKED? HAHA.... ya, but then I signed up for this job, I am no longer doing 830-530 anyway. Must remember to always expect the unexpected.

So I thought it would be better to wait till 730am to call him. Wah lau. He wasn't in Singapore and think I woke him up. Anyway, I booked myself on a flight out of SG at 1240pm. To be frank, 1 million horror thoughts flashed through my head. Like "will they sell me away in Jakarta?". I know it's funny why I would of it this way but if I was a syndicate, it's best to throw an un-suspecting victim into a frenzy right?

Had lunch with Jilei at the airport and boarded the plane. My 1st time in Jakarta. Maybe not first, since I did a transit in Jakarta before. ahahah... anyway, it's strangely like KL, just a bit messier.

Office is right in the middle of the CDB area. Nice! Surrounded by the big name banks and quite a few oil companies are around... Started work with some heavy reading. More and more memories coming back... haha.. I really missed drilling, missed being lost, missed the excitement (like this??), missed being at the very forefront of technology..

Hotel is near the office, at this area called Semangi. Hotel Aryaduta Semanggi is a little old but very spacious......1 bedroom SUITE! hahahaha... with a kitchen, living room and bedroom, ALL SEPARATED. ahhaha....yeah, I also missed not paying while enjoying life. ahaha... :P

alrighty, will write more tmr, very tired from all the excitement and I have an early start... will try to get my butt out for a walk after work tmr....
