Have a Rest

496 views. 2013-3-29 23:58

Finally I can have a rest after the issue of 3G modem is resolved. My client treated me well since I resolved the issue.

I also met their big boss Mash, an old man with white beard. He asked me to make everything OK before I went to China. I didn’t know how to judge his appearance, which was similar to Aobai acted by Xu Jinjiang. He only had a short conversation with me, but made everything clear. No wonder he was the big boss.

Thanks to the Pakistani engineer who received me. His information of VPN made us resolve the rebooting issue of 3G modem much easier. Seeing the working efficiency, Pakistani boss gave us an new order. He said our boss should be happy now and also asked whether I was happy or not. Of course I was happy I could resolve the problem to prove myself.

Now there is still a little problem for the test. Maybe we can fix it soon tomorrow. No matter where I am, I must have a peaceful mind. They have their religion to make them peaceful. They pray three times a day. I’m a man without religion, so I have to depend me to make myself peaceful.

Now it’s 23:37. I think I should write something in memory. Originally I will return to China tomorrow. Since the big boss of Pakistan said I needed to make sure everything was OK before I left. So I will stay to next week and delayed my flight.

The most painful thing is that I’m not accustomed to Pakistani food. Food is the most basic need of life, if you can’t get it well, it’s really painful. Though I’m hungry, I’m not willing to have dinner. My peaceful mind tells me to be calm and have what I have quietly, which isn’t a big deal.

An old man and his nephew brought me out on Wednesday evening to have piazza. The old man was really funny and I liked him. He really wanted to know what’s my opinion of Pakistan. Of course I said everything to make him happy so that I could get a nice piazza. We went to a really famous piazza shop and waited for a long time to get our piazza. He ordered one cola for me and shared another one with his nephew. They drank the same cola in turn and I wasn’t accustomed to that kind of habit, which was really normal to them.

I also saw many beautiful Pakistani women, tall, slim, fair skin, big eyes, long eyebrows, gorgeous hair. Pakistani men were all with heavy beard that I couldn’t even see their faces clearly. Small children were all very cute with fair skin and big eyes. I was the only foreigner and they always watched me.

After finishing our piazza, the old man drove and showed me mansion of president and prime minister. Actually I liked the mansion of prime minister more because it was unique and full of Pakistani favor.

On Thursday evening, Faisal gave me a really happy night. In the car, he let me play Chinese songs. Though he couldn’t understand Chinese, he could sing exactly as the same as original singer, which was an very amazing thing. He was the general manager, of course he was very smart.

He was probably the most handsome guy in the company, really charismatic.

I didn’t have many female songs in my mobile phone. So I just shared most of male songs with him. I was proud of Chinese culture because I could show all kinds of songs to him and he liked them very much. The Heart of Wastrel by Xu Guanjie, The Girl of Flower House by Cui Jian, Can I hug You by Zhang Huimei were his favorite. Gong Lingna’s song made him really sick and he couldn’t stand it and told me to stop. He could shake his neck and body according to the rhyme, funny guy. Probably the funniest guy in Pakistan I’ve ever seen.

Everybody here is so friendly. I like people here. Though they’re not very rich, they live really merrily. I should learn from them. They do their prayer every day heart and soul without interruption. I should learn this kind of spirit and read and write every day without interruption.

Though the life here wasn’t very comfortable, I was happy to have this kind of brand-new life. Really peaceful and quiet in the capital. Everybody said Pakistan was in turmoil though they never came. I guessed they were all influenced by the media. Actually Pakistan is peaceful and quiet.

As I stay here, there are so many news about China, all of which can make you believe China is really horrible, but China is nice. So don’t believe things until you judge it.

at first i have a question in my mind, but since i read the end of your article, i got the answer, Pakistan is peaceful.
As most of the time we heard the news on TV broadcasting the finghting there, these news expressed us a message: it's not safe in that country, but now i can say it's wrong.

Ok, don’t believe things until you judge it. It's better to see it ourselves rather than to hear for many times. Wonderful journey and experience! Congratulations!

That is the magic of the internet. You can get first hand account from people who have really gone to countries and give a sincere, unbiased and true account of his experience. I have never trusted the news reports which often render biased reports to their own advantage and to attract readers who are thirsty for negative news and info. When I am in western countries people sometimes like to portray Chinese people as unfriendly, rude, self-centered or anti-social. My first reaction was, being a foreigner born in China, I can say that is nonsense. Modern day Chinese men are presentable, intelligent, well-mannered and respectable. Chinese ladies are of course pretty, homely, feminine and nice.

Anyway, your company is fortunate to have you as their technical staff. You have a great future buddy, keep going.

I used to think staying at home was the happiest thing. Now I find travelling around the world isn’t bad. I actually kind of like this kind of life.

As most of the time we heard
Hehe, to be honest, I was a little scared when I needed to go there. When I live here, I find it’s really peaceful and beautiful. They live simply but happily, which is sarcasm to me. At first I thought it was a waste of time of prayer three times a day, now I think it’s their faith, which is meaningful. So we have no religion, do we really save a lot of time? I  don’t think so. Actually we wasted time on physical pleasure, which is a thing opposite to religion.

Hehe, I'm just trying my best to do things, not for the company, but for my client and myself. My company is just trying to crush me with double workloads. I just ingore all work in China regardless of my director. After all, I have to live. I already prefer to stay in dorm and have one dinner per day, but my boss is still trying to save money and offer more work for me to do. I just say, No Way!
