I was leaving the office of mine for over 6 years; the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.xfresh.com\/\" target=\"_BLANK\">Xfresh<\/a> fishtank, in the All-Asia Broadcast Centre.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/tpmw2.jpg\"><br \/>\nMy desk, which overlooked a glass window which overlooked hot chicks coming in and out of the elevator walking to different departments.

Every excolleague I meet asks &#8220;<i>does the AABC cafeteria still have nasi goreng cina? Oh man I miss that&#8230;<\/i>&#8220;. I fondly say yes.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d routinely fish out prawns because I&#8217;m allergic to them.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/tpmw6.jpg\"><br \/>\nOne fine sunny Tuesday morning, I took the bus as usual to AABC. I then walked to the new office in Technology Park, Malaysia. (My <a href=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/?p=921\">original plan on Monday was foiled<\/a> because of rain.)<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/tpmw7.jpg\"><br \/>\nAn abandoned drink.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/tpmw8.jpg\"><br \/>\nAn underpass under the <b>Lebuhraya Puchong &#8211; Sg. Besi<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/tpmw9.jpg\"><br \/>\nSoon, I was reaching&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/tpmw10.jpg\"><br \/>\n&#8230;passing the guardian of the car park&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/tpmw11.jpg\"><br \/>\n&#8230;into the new building.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/tpmw12.jpg\"><br \/>\nI found a mamak, where I have my fix of Teh Tarik Kurang Manis and Roti Kaya.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/tpmw5.jpg\"><br \/>\nThe new office.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/tpmw13.jpg\"><br \/>\nAh, sweet new cubicle. Sweet, fast broadband. Not so freezing cold air-conditioning.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/tpmw4.jpg\"><br \/>\nI asked for a pool table, but I guess this would have to do.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/tpmw14.jpg\"><br \/>\nBecause I didn&#8217;t want to eat only at the mamak downstairs, I decided to check out other buildings and their cafeterias. This particular building had weird plants growing all over.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/tpmw16.jpg\"><br \/>\nSadly, the grass was indeed greener on the other side; this is the cafeteria at the Recreation Center.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/tpmw15.jpg\"><br \/>\nEven construction works looked better than my building!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glaringnotebook.com\/zimages\/tpmw17.jpg\"><br \/>\nPatimas. This building was made to look and feel like a resort, complete with greenery, a pool, <b>and<\/b> a pool table (which supposedly is in a storeroom somewhere now.) The poolside cafeteria was a great idea; however the food wasn&#8217;t great.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 27th of July 2007 marked a sad day for me.
