Come What May.......

I was reminiscing the lyrics sung by Ewan McGregor and written by David Baerwald and I supposed that how I describe my feeling towards MAS...Come What May....I will still be here and devoted my life and soul until the very end.

By the way, this second entry will not continue on my background as I have decided to postpone the posting to a later time where I feel it is more suitable to reveal more about myself.

I joined MAS on 15 October 1991, fresh from school after obtaining my Degree in Industrial Engineering at University of Texas at Arlington. Being young and ambitious, I joined the airline despite my mum's slight objection. Why? She wanted me to work in Sabah while I wanted to be in KL...Well...I am used to a big city like Dallas so small town like Kota Kinabalu will definitely bore me to death...Furthermore, I will be working with MAS so I still have the opportunity to come back home using my discounted tickets as and when I feel like going back home or when she wanted me to be there.

MAS ... Malaysia Airlines System....Penerbangan Malaysia..or whatever you want to call it...is the place I call my second home. Things have changed rapidly since I joined the airline in 1991. Sometimes I even find it difficult to fathom the reasons that led to the changes...The management cited changes in the competition landscape that is unavoidable....Economy crisis, Financial crunch, emergence of LCC and so forth. MAS has to change or be changed BUT I think some of the changes are just unnecessary.

If it ain't broken why fix it? But then, I realise that they are individuals who are so highly ambitious and want to climb up the corporate ladder fast that also contributed to the changes. I reckon that I am not one of them, but most of the time, I have gotten myself trapped in the battle...One thing so obvious is one's aspiration to be on top will get someone killed in the course of reaching the peak....It is a vicious cycle...survival of the fittest. It is just like the perfect storm that MAS is riding on currently.

In parallel, I am riding my perfect storm as well. As long as I know how to manoeuvre my ways, I will emerge as the survivor at the end...Come What May...

Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
I want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day I'm loving you more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sings
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change, winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time

Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day

Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you
And there's no mountain too high
No river too wideSing out this song
I'll be there by your sideStorm clouds may gather
And stars may collide
But I love you until the end of time

Oh, come what may, come what may
I will love you, I will love you
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
