What now?

Waaah.. Just deleted the whole entry that I have written. Basically it was about some form of post-holiday depression, there's nothing really to wait or to look forward to. First I was waiting for new job to start, then for holiday, then for Natalia to come over (she came right after holiday for couple of nights stop-over from Bali to Bangkok). Everything was great, but what now? We got only vague promises about other people's visits (maybe Taina and Mika after the Easter and maybe Tommi as an "external evaluator" for Temasek Poly, but I haven't heard any updates about that, so I don't know how hopeful we should be..) People, come come over, we'd be happy to host you and entertain ourselves.. :)

It was great to hang around with Natalia. We went to East Cost Seafood restaurants and had chilli crab. I put my jacket on the back of my hair and the cleaning lady came to cover it with a plastic bag. "How weird", I thought. But when we started eating, crunching the crab, tearing legs apart, I realized that it was a clever move - you get the sauce all over the place and up to your ears. After the tsunami people got funny about eating seafood. They ask "what is this fish eating there underwater?" and in fact, they're eating whatever they find there. So.. Use your imagination.. he he..

I haven't even been pictures last week, so I'm using some old ones. This was from New Years and the guy next to Kaj is Mohan, his colleague. Extreamly funny and "hearty" (sydamelinen-shirdingas) person. People started waiting for the Chinese New Year already, this weekend there will be some fireworks and firecrackers show although the actual festival is in a month. Next year is Rooster year and they say it is not good for marriages, neither for projects that require long term commitment..

Kaj jo alkoi katsella toita Australiassa, taa hanen tyopaikka kylla vaikutta tosi uskotammalta. Tammikuun loppussa olisi yksi viikonloppu milloin vois saada 3 vapaa paivaa (joku Hari Raya Haji juhla taas), mutta ne tosi ystavalisesti jarjestivat jonkun koulutuksen launataina.. jumala auta...

Kaj jau pradejo ieskot darbo, gal Australijoj, jo darbe viskas baisiai keistai organizuojama. Pvz sausio pabaigoj butu galimybe aptureti laisva ilga 3ju dienu savaitgali (vel kazkokia Hari Raya Haji svente), bet jie labai protingai suorganizavo apmokymus kaip tik ta sheshtadieni.. Vajei vajei..
