After quite a long period of peacefulness in my family, I knew I didn't have to wait to long for another conflict. It happened yesterday, and it changed everything.
It started just between two people, soon it involved everyone. (Including me, though not directly.)
It shouldn't have and shouldn't be affecting everyone. The reason it was having an easy time putting everyone involved is because in our family, there are too many mines between one another through the years. To say the least, we weren't really feel together. Most of us hadn't been treating each other as family. We've only been doing what is just enough to avoid conflict withing the house. I already knew about this issue since I was still a kid. I also didn't foresee this to change anytime soon, or it ever will. Most of us, at least for the youngs, are just waiting.
We are waiting to get out of the house. To leave the "family". We are just a bunch of extremely dry wood, even a tiny spark will ignite us. We need some moisture that we will never be able to get if we stick together. That sounds sad, just like most of the truths are.
Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.

Tasker
It's been a tough week. I kinda lost my focus on most things. I'm still trying to figure out the work I need to do at my job. So far not much have passed on to me as I'm still a newbie at this job.
So, whenever I turn on my PC in the morning at office, I start to wander how I'm gonna spend my next 9 hours there. I usually start checking Email, wait for my superior to reach office, when I feel he doesn't want me for any task, I start my morning software lesson. I spend the hours before lunch researching the softwares, try to get myself familiar with them as soon as possible. Then I lunch, there's when the challenge comes. I NEED something to do before knocking off.
I spend this past weekend trying to think of some tasks to do after my lunch time at office. I kinda skip the usual entertainments like videos or games as I don't want to spend the time unproductively. I ended up decided on reading and drawing. These are the things I will do if I'm not working.
I just thought of writing might be a potential candidate also, we will see.

A little blues
I dislike complicated things. I don't feel safe if I can't figure something out. Although much less than before, I still find myself in that kind of situation every now and then. There aren't many things I care about and I still find them to be a few too many I want to spend my brain cells on. I prefer simplicity.
I've always been trying to simplify things, simplify my life. I keep the things I care about to the minimum--the games I play, the type of asset I own and the people I talk to etc. I keep things simple at the same time I make sure they are still interesting enough. I wouldn't go as far as to sacrifice the fun in something just because I think they are troublesome. I've got to be practical. I guess that is the difference between the kind of person I'm and people with autism.
I don't put on the headphone because I like to listen to music, but because I don't want to hear the noise of the world around me.

Relationship
One of the most important task when I started working last week, besides trying to quickly pick up new software, was to build up some kind of relationship or another with my colleagues. As we are together 5 days a week, 9 hours a day, the time we are together are almost as much as a family, I can't imagine myself in a working environment like that if I make myself an outsider to them. I always keep them in mind and whenever I've got the chance I'll approach some of the people and chat.
My first day working I had the chance to have lunch with two of my colleagues, but since it was my first day we still have the awkwardness when we sat down at a table. Even when we were on the way back to office we didn't talk much that could help in developing the relationship between us. The next day got worst because I was to be late for work and missed the lunch time. When I got there everyone had started their second half of their work. That was a terrible afternoon as I literally didn't do anything until I knocked off.
Here comes Thursday(I started on Tuesday), when things are starting to look better. I reached office half an hour earlier and was the third to reach there. The first two who arrived earlier are the kind of person who likes to chat a lot, so I took my chance and introduced myself, find out more about them and the rest of the office team. I even manage to show some of my humour to everyone at lunch time when we all sat together in a briefing. Trying to let my colleagues know more about me is my objective and my humour is something I want to show them as soon as possible.
Friday went very well, as everyone was quite relaxed on that day. My direct superior started using Mandarin to talk with me more, I know that is a sign that he is treating me as something more then a new comer. I was pleased. He even told many stories when we were having lunch together.
My relationship development, it didn't go well at first, but was starting to progress slowly but steady.

Enjoyment
I was too tired due to lack of sleep the night before my first day of work, I didn't have much mood to do anything and almost went straight to bed immediately after I reached home yesterday. As for today, after having sufficient sleep, I've been feeling quite energetic through the day. Even after a GYM session I'm still not as tired as yesterday night. I hope I can keep this up.
So, today's my second day of work, I haven't got much thought towards it, "so far so good " is as much as I could tell. Well, at least I'm feeling quite good. I've been learning new things, getting to meet new people, learning new things, getting to meet new people, learning new things... and I enjoyed them.
There are still many issues that need to be balanced, small issues like what to eat for breakfast and for lunch to how should I distribute my salary. All of them need time to be able to fully figured out so there really isn't anything I can do about them at this point of time. But like I said, I'm enjoying them.

Ikou ze
It's almost a quarter past ten and I'm about to go to bed. Almost 3 hours earlier than the time I sleep for the past 5 years. My new job starts at 9am tomorrow and I planned to wake up at 6am to get ready and to avoid the peak hour crowd by boarding the bus early. It's actually not too tough for me, but just in case so I want to make sure I have enough sleep. The schedule will be adjusted accordingly after a few weeks of work.
Don't really have much to say here. Might update again tomorrow, I hope I won't be too tired for it.
