joan: 'prawn house special fried rice pleaseee'

waitress: 'you sirrrr?'

waitress:' how spicyy? one to fiveee?' (level of spiciness)

omar: 'six'

waitress thinks hard for few seconds to computer the answer

waitress: 'haa haa haa six!'

oblivious to love

sometimes when you're on the road so much, travelling about the world, you kinda forget about what makes you happy inside..

First Week in Seattle

Dear Blog,

It has been a week. Thank god the weather has been kind - folks here said that it was pretty bad the last 2 months but last weekend was awesome-o. It is going to get quite cold soon. Currently it is sunny around 20 degrees celcius.

I kinda miss Malaysia ..as usual..I was getting a heavy dose of home sickness on Monday and Tuesday. Monday I was too jet lagged , I didn't get any sleep the night before so I was in the office that morning feeling sluggish and moody , cursing why do I sign-up to become a consultant whose job takes him far far away from his beloved country.

Tuesday I was feeling homesick as the night before I was dreaming of just chilling in KL with my best friend , go up to Kuantan chilling and surfing with Hezri. So when I woke up and realized the cold surrounding of my apartment I was feeling really melancholy and homesick.

Anyway by end of Tuesday I was feeling better. I had Taco Bell for lunch! Hmm Grande Quesadilla is a good comfort food. I took some pics , will upload them later kot.

The project site it situated near the town centre and from the distance you can the snow capped mountain ranges that extends all the way to Canada. How nice...

Oklah that's all for now..back to work dear Blog.

Regards,
Omar
