That 1 moment in time

Today, I’m going to write the post in my most natural way…the “sempoi” way.

Few days back, 1 of my biggest wish was granted. I finally manage to set foot on an offshore oil platform. Of course, since I’m in charge of the project, I was given the liberty to pay a visit to the respected project platform. All I can say is…” WOW…what an experience!”

There, right in the middle of the ocean, in the most awkwardly strange place destined by GOD, I met him.

He is just another ordinary average Joe, but the 1st time I lay my eyes on him, there is this strange feeling inside me ( well of course, it was 6.30 in the morning, and we have to attend the morning briefing- the strange feeling is maybe bcz I’m still sleepy). The 1st time we’ve spoken, I was dumbstruck, stunned, blurred and the only body part that was moving during that moment are my eyelid. Terkebil-kebil mcm ayam berak kapur!. Trying so hard to rationalized everything and trying to remember “ what am I doing here n what am I supposed to do”

I suddenly found myself tersengih-sengih, uglier than kerang busuk, despite the fact that I’m currently in a meeting attended by all the highly experienced personnel on board. I looked at him, and notice that he was laughing at me ( I guess he must have been laughing at my ugly sengih-uglier than the kerang). Honestly speaking, I’ve never fell dumber than this in my whole life, keep on wondering, what’s gotten into me?

Still, for the remaining 72 hr that I need to be onboard, I bump into him, on the aisle, in the dining hall, during presentation bla…bla…bla.. And each and everytime, I found myself suddenly become clumsy. Words that come out from my mouth, jadi pelik, things that I did, suddenly jadi tak betul. Those things that happened during those 3 day I spend on board, are soooo not me, for I have the reputation as a no-nonsense, stone hearted, and mulut laser.

Life is funny most of the time. One day u wake up, u met this stranger, u didn’t even know his name and u are sure as hell that u will never see him again, but your hunch tell you that “he’s the one”. Its not that u’ve suddenly fall in love, neither u are flirting, but I feels like someone telling u that “ my dear, he is the one that u’ve been waiting for”.

And then deep in your heart, u know that you’ll never have him in your life.



To U, I wish u a great life, u really deserve it, coz u are really special in your own way ( at least for me)
