Bad Dream

It was one lazy Sunday afternoon, when I was laying around in bed and finally fall asleep. I can not remember the last time I took a nap during day light, it seem like over a year or so. ( I do not count sleeping during taking a ride in bus or car, I tend to fall asleep when I am in a bus or cars).

Well, it is not my favorite location when I slept. My favorite location is near the window, approximately 25 cm from the left side of the bed, head located at the head of the bed and body fully covered with blankets.
On this nap, no. I took the other position.

Ok, lets get to the point. I was having a dream about A monster. The MONSTER is able to replicate and duplicate in any form that he like. I can not remember the detail, but for sure I finally escaped from the monster but he kept chasing me or my team.
I am sure there' was a team. Anyway I woke up when the monster was trying to get me for the second time. And somehow when I woke up, the beat in myheart was still accelerated, I DID get scared.

It felt really really weird. I mean, I am 26 years old !!. My bad dreams should not contain any monster or any ridiculous creatures. That kind of dream should have ended when I reached age 20 or 21. That kinda dream should be for teens or somebody who just went into college.

In my current age, my bad dreams suppose to be that I went to the office and forgot to use my pants or I were in a situation where I were to choose between making love with Elizabeth Taylor or making love with a giraffe..... (hemm, I never dream about this love making option thing, but I do wonder what would I choose ya...)

Smart Move

Having no project available in the office make me becoming a tendering engineer. Basically, what I do is, I perform an engineering assessment in the tender. Checking the specification, checking the our marine spread capabilities to perform the project then ended by developing an execution plan in how we gonna perform the project.

Beside some technical knowledge I gain in this process, other business trick I learn also here.

Apparently, if some company want you to become their subcontractor in the tender it does not they are really honest about making you become their subcontractor.

With tons of documents to be read and a lot of engineering analysis and procedures to be generated, plus a very tight schedule for tender submission, hence it is better you study furter for what can u do, and leave the rest of documents to be assessed by other.
This is where your beloved subcontractor came along.
Your subcontractor, will read the bid docs and develop their execution plan and submit their financial proposal to you.

From your subcontractor technical n financial proposal, then you wrap it your own proposal.
If you are granted with an extensive time hence you might assess your capabilities and realize that you can do it cheaper. ( Note the word "cheaper" ).


And by the end of the day, u win the project but u do not grant your subcontractor the jobs.

Happiness

I believe the one that people look after in life is happiness. For me, the term of happy can be seen in what we do in 24 hours a day.
It is a simple math u know, if you happy in 24 hours a day that mean you happy in life.
Let us break down that 24 hours and explain what I do:
1. 8 hours of sleep
If you can not sleep tight.Then it mean, you are not happy right ?. Too many musquitos or it is hot in your room. That 's exactly why, I spend a lot of money for renting my current place. It is one third of your life, you totally need to be happy right ?
2. 10 hours of working
If you are not happy if what you do for a living, then you really wasting your life. The sound of go home bell is the most and only sound that you are really expecting everyday. Then thing get worst, when you have to stuck in the office up to 12-15 hours even have to work over the weekend, man you are fucked.
Me? I am happy for what I do. Whenever I got problem at work, I am gladly to work overtime without paid to solve it, even over the weekend.
3. 2 hours of meal
Hey, the best time of the day man. Eat what you like and I tell, you will be cheer up in no matter situation.
Are you happy chris when you ate?
Should I answer that?
Look at me man.
4. 4 hours of social life.
Meeting friends or go out with your special one is an antidote for a though day. Just talking craps or whatever, with friends , it will cheer you up.
ah, this is my problems. Some times, I do not enjoy my current social life.


So the final calculation = 4/24 = 1/6 of my day sometimes I am not happy.
Well, in general, it totally can be said that I am happy.

Are you happy ?
