Police bust a house in Tennessee for weed where they discover an underground marijuana farm accessible from a ramp and a secret hydraulic door. The cave had living quarters and a hidden escape route to the surface. HOLY SHIT! I WANT THAT BATCAVE!!!

Ahah! Finally rearing my head after such a long time.
Chinese new year is over, the MRR2 is closed down for 4 months for repairs, mahjong players caught gambling are shaved in prison… the list of things going on in KL is just massive. You’re better off reading thestar.com.my or jeffooi.com for that matter. I will prob do a crappy job doinga recap of my leave of absence.
Anyway, I’m a senior executive working in the investment department of the Bank now. Pretty sweet stuff I tell you. Work is from 8:30 to 5:30 officially. But what that really means is that we all stay back anyway to about 6ish or so but I’m not complaining.
Finance is a big switch from law but the steep learning curve makes it a whole lot more interesting because you will learn something new everyday. Like some new Bloomberg ticker shortcut that will make life a whole lotta easier. Or some new fangled Excel macro l33tness. Or some sweet way to make all slides in PowerPoint do something funky. Whatever it is, my current working environment is just rich in learning and the Bank facilitates that learning process oh-so-well.
My job spec? Lets see if you can figure out what I do from the official section name: Strategic treasury development & financial market analysis. I call it FATS - Financial Analysis & Treasury Strategy. Whot a glamourous name. Oh and I ***STILL*** do ad hoc legal stuff. Boo!
Its been 2 months now and I’m glad to say I’m liking my new job. If I stayed on with law I would still be in Bar school now (or alternatively doing my CLP) which means I am waaaaaaayyyy far from getting my first proper paycheck. But its not the money that I’m worried about; the comforting cushion of having your parents around is sweet, but its a luxury I will eventually have to wean myself off. I think the process is much easier if I was abroad. I think that financial independance comes from being physically independant yourself. Staying under one roof and have ALOT of things subsidized is a crutch thing that I am glad I have now, but something I know I will have to learn to have without one day, one step at a time.
