Saviour-V teleports in...
2006's almost over, 2007's coming in.
And what difference does it make, I ask you?
Nothing, yet everything.
I got my job at the METC in late 2006. It may seem like nothing, but it's tough to find another job that lets me see helicopters and planes come and go from the safety of my office window, with the realization that whatever I do will directly influence that situation.
A crush I had for about 9 years is now married. Sure, there were some feelings, but then again, what's the need for human emotions, I ask you? ^_^;;
I've been on an emotional yo-yo through this year. Again, it may not seem like much, but you're not the one experiencing them, right? I've had my heart pulled out from me, shaken for several precious minutes, and pushed back in, with absolutely NO anaesthetic at all.
So, have I every right to be bitter? Maybe. But bitterness is a human emotion, and I'm trying to disregard the need for it. Even though I fear loneliness, that might be my path, from the looks of things.
I don't know about 2007 yet, but yeah, sure, there's the usual aspirations for the future. I think I'm a bit closer to either victory or defeat. And I'd be right in either case. Heh.

Saviour-V teleports in, and blows off the dust from a pillar...
Whew! Thought I'd never come back here.
Man, lots of things have happened since the last time I posted. But here's a rundown:
1. Left UNISEL about several months ago, and after some deliberating (i.e. hanging out in my home with almost nothing to do), I finally get myself a new job at a place called the Malaysian Airlines Engineering Training Centre. As an IT Executive, to be exact, but multi-tasking's the order of the day. In fact, that job's been keeping me busy for almost 3 months now. Nice place.
2. On the more recent side of things, a certain Nasyrah, a.k.a. Nur Nuha bt. Mohd. Yusuff, got married a day ago. Now, the thing is, although she's an old crush of mine, I can't seem to forget her, and right now, a lot of strange emotions are going through my mind, and I hope I can straighten them out before I attend her wedding banquet this afternoon.
3. Also, this laptop which I'm using now's gotten a nice little RAM upgrade, courtesy of a certain Sean Liew. Saw his details on eBay Malaysia, and judging from the reviews AND actually meeting him, I'm convinced that he's bound to make good business from his efforts there. Oh, and 1 GB of RAM VS 256 MB of RAM makes so much more difference...^_^;
Well, that's for starters. I'll post up more as I go by. Thanks for holding out, people!
Saviour-V grins, and teleports out...

Saviour-V teleports in...
Things have become somewhat pseudo-boring off late. Blame it on the past 7 months of sticking to UNISEL sans pay, and taking the month off to find greener pastures after things fell through the floor.
I doubt I'd put too much trust in UNISEL from here on out; governmental intervention can be quite deadly to an organization from experience. As I found out first-hand.
But anyway, I've left it, and moved on to better things, I hope.
Anyway, that aside, forgive me for the long delay in updating things...my Muse has been slow in providing inspiration, and it annoys me to no end.
Once I get my groove back, I'll post up something major in here.

Saviour-V teleports in...
Right. As promised, there would be some detail.
But before that, some backstory. When it comes to certain aspects of life, some are easily explained, while some others are best experienced on a personal basis, so to speak.
Finding out more about a woman falls into the latter category.
And as such, at about 5:40 p.m. on Friday the 5th, I was waiting for one such person to pick me up in Shah Alam. Truth is, she said, "Wait at 7:30 p.m," but I figured that scoping out the area was a better idea.
Especially since I found out that the McDonald's in that area I was in ALSO happened to be near a restaurant I used to go with my family. OK, maybe NOT so near, but it was within 6 minutes of walking, anyway.
To cut the waiting part of this story short, folks, suffice to say that several SMSes later, one of which mentioned her heavy workload (poor thing), the girl finally showed up at about 8:30 or so.
After a brief apology about the lateness, she drove me to her place.
As for what happened during the hours between 9 p.m. to about 2 a.m., well....suffice to say that girl was not only kind enough to listen to me about my past, she was also willing to listen to me about the future.
Saviour-V grins slightly...
Of course, what exactly happened was a little bit more, a-hem, revealing than usual. All in all, though, I figure that it was one of the best moments of my life, and that I hope that it all works out right later on.
Saviour-V winks at his audience, and teleports out...

Saviour-V teleports in...
It seems that I've gotten quite complacent over the past few months.
GemWing teleports in, upon sensing her master's approach...
Indeed you have, my lord. I've also noticed your melancholiness off late for the past 6 months or so...what troubles you?
Nothing. And everything. While I look forward to the possibility of being fully employed by UNISEL to serve them in Batang Berjuntai, my heart seems to ache for company. In a way, GemWing...
Saviour-V turns to face his Guardian Spirit...
...I would like to say that it's your fault, but I can't lie to myself.
You ARE lonely, Saviour-V. And you don't REALLY need me to feel that. It's no longer "I need to get you a host body," but more of "I wish I just had someone to keep me company, and bring me out of my low moments." Sou ka, taicho?
Sou desu, GemWing. Indeed, it is quite a pain to have to contend with loneliness in a sense, but a much more painful situation to contend with the loss if you ever loved, and lost, someone.
Still missing Maryam? You seem to have become quite the ghost with regards to her name. Even though you were advised not to continue, you do worry for her, in a way. And I know, Saviour-V, that a part of you still aches for her.
Indeed. But I doubt that she would return, GemWing; I hurt her feelings as much as she hurt mine, but my own transgression is much worse than hers. Perhaps I should've given the two of us one more chance.
Perhaps NOT. Riz, you know full well that there's bound to be someone better; just like what Maryam once said to you. Just keep your head up, and keep on fighting.
I don't really know, GemWing. It's owing to you that I've not lost my mind fully, although I have been getting rather forgetful about things. Now, I seem to wonder what my purpose of existing is.
Pull yourself together, Riz...you can't afford to give up on Life just yet!
But I failed to keep my relationship together. I mean, after all I said, and did, for her, why did I not give her the chance to be the woman she could've been? Heck, why couldn't I even help the other people I knew in my younger days at all?
Saviour-V yells...
WHAT KIND OF SAVIOUR AM I, FOR GOD'S SAKE?!
My lord, you do realize that for all that your identity means, you can't really save all of mankind. The one thing you can do is to save yourself from yourself....and right now, my lord, forgive me for being frank...
GemWing promptly slaps Saviour-V across his face, hard...
....but you're NOT doing a good job of it!
This isn't like you, Riz, I mean, the Saviour-V I once knew would get up and keep on going, keeping his head high, and giving more of himself to others!
There will be someone for you, Riz, just keep on looking, and don't give up on living. Please...it's for both our sakes.
GemWing hugs Saviour-V close to her, tears streaking across her face...
Just don't give up...please...
Saviour-V, shocked, hugs GemWing close, as the Sanctuary's lights dim...
Thank you, GemWing, for being you. I just hope that I CAN survive and give it my all.
Saviour-V, still hugging GemWing, kisses her, as the Sanctuary darkens completely, leaving only the silhouettes of a fallen hero, still holding onto his beloved Guardian Spirit...

Saviour-V teleports in...
Kind of late for an entry, but I'm just posting up a few details of what happened on Sunday
Namely, the Industri Asas Tani agricultural fair at the Putra World Trade Centre in Kuala Lumpur.
Saviour-V clears his throat...
A-hem!
Mum was hoping that someone would come with her to the fair, and I volunteered, even though I didn't have much of a clue about what I'd find there. Obviously, we found ourselves a lot of good deals where food was concerned; we managed to pick up four 5-piece packets of pita pockets (try saying THAT 10 times fast!) along with a kilo's worth of kebab meat to go with those, as well as a few choice herbs and spices for a few dishes Mum's been meaning to make for quite a long time.
On the OTHER side of the coin, our experience was somewhat marred, in a way, because when it comes to scientific research, MARDI (short for the Malaysian Agricultural Research and Development Institute) seems to focus on marketing products and services FIRST before research. For example, some
JAKIM (short for JAbatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia or the Department of Islamic Development in Malaysia) was also of minimal help. It's one thing to give consumable products, especially foodstuff, Halal clearance.
Aside from that, all in all, it was moderately enjoyable.

Saviour-V teleports in, nursing a sizable bump on his head, and the occasional sneeze...
Afternoon...atchoo!
Saviour-V sneezes for the umpteenth time...
I hate being sick. GemWing's done her duty by giving me a sizable CLONK on the head...
Saviour-V casts a tired but angry glance at a laughing GemWing nearby...
...but yesterday was when I thought I felt OK, until I started sneezing, all the way till 5 p.m. In my workplace, worse still. Ironically, I felt like I could take on anything, and THAT had to happen....>_<
Saviour-V blows his nose against his hankerchief...
Currently, I've abandoned the idea of going to work today until I'm sure that the whole thing's cleared up. A few well-wishes would go a long way.
And to those of you with dates today (or NOT...^_^;;), Happy Valentine's. Hope that you get the most out of today and the days to come.
Saviour-V sneezes again, and barely manages to teleport out...

GemWing teleports in, dressed in a maid uniform instead of her combat suit...
Heya, ladies and gents. Happy 2006 to you all!
Suddenly, a loud snore is heard, and GemWing facefaults, before picking herself off the floor, and making faces at the sleeping Saviour-V...
That being said, though...my master's gotten quite jaded off late. Even his game-playing runs have suffered.
It's as if he's lost his zest for life. Well, I've been goading him back into action, but he's just not fighting right.
GemWing glances at Saviour-V, still dozing off in his easy chair, and a anime-style vein pops up on her forehead...
I really should kick him out of his easy chair and tell him he's got a mission to do. Anyhow, feel free to fill his comment-boxes and Tagboard. Tell him there's more to life.
Sure, he's been through some rough times, but he needs some UP time. And, as his Guardian Spirit...
GemWing rolls up her sleeves...
...it's up to me to do that. Wish me luck!
GemWing pulls out a frying pan from behind her, and slowly edges towards Saviour-V's resting place...
