Updates 9th Feb 2012

Its been exactly a month since the day we left Malaysia,loads of happened in this month.

Finally, feels like I have fully adjusted to life here...the weather,the food and life here in Doha...there's the good,the bad and the ugly.

The good: My job and job scope is purely engineering, so I get to learn alot and thats my number 1 prority.Also, I have a nice room-mate and most people around here are easy to get along with and helpful.Another one is that there are more Indians than Qataris here,so being able to converse in Hindi makes everything so much easier.Same goes to all those Indian,Nepali,Bangladeshi workers I have under me.Also, is the respect you get for being an engineer, pure job satisfaction.I am a Mechanical Engineer.

The bad: Weather.Many might think it will be super hott here in Doha but instead, its winter right now...some days it goes down to like 11/10celsius and those days,I freeze to death.Even this morning, it was really cold...messes up with your immune system, having sore throat almost all the time.Prices of things are higher here as everything sold here are imported.Qatar is a small country filled with rich people with loads of oil, so why would they even bother of having another industry.Another bad thing is that this land is flat,with only sands and stones, without grass or trees...its not pleasant to the eye at all.

The ugly:Arabic law and the Arabs here.Rude,arrogant and ignorant bastards.


Thats all updates so far...Im missing people back home alot,esp my brothers and ohh my cat...all my friends and the people I knew.Missing loads of nice Malaysian food and the Malaysian culture...Im getting more and more into work these days,really does take my mind off things...
