New environment; old place?

Time flies, already here for almost a week plus. I was waited for this assignment years, finally it comes truth!
A week before my departured, so busy with the packing, shopping and meeting up with friends. Until a stage that I was not feeling well. Lucky with immediate control, nothing worse happen. The moment that I left my house, looking at my mom's eyes, she was doing well, no tears. But, she couldn't speak much! I understand her feeling.
The night stayed in Changi airport was perfect! I never expect, the transit hotel in Terminal 3 even better than Penang's Eastin Hotel. So, i asked extension for another hour with cost SIN15.3, but it worth it! Before that arrival I was in Penang airport or 2 wks ago i was in KLIA airport, speechless, Singapore ROCK! The food couts options are fantastic till I did not know what too choose. In Penang, you have to pay ringgits to vist butterfly farm; but in that airport FREE! Jess, nvr expect now they have HRC too. Gosh, I wish I can spend more times there! Before my next long journey, I gave my mom a call and told her how wonderful is the airport. Definitely, next year will bring her here. :)
The journey from SIN to LAX was "hem hem", didn't have space for my long legs and the worst part was my neighbour, so annoying! I have a word for him- KANASAI!
Finally after 16 hours flight arrived LAX, while waiting for the immigration; I was worry, because I was always lucky to have "special treatment". Thank GOD, the KL US consulate had remove me successful from this special register interview, thank you!
Waiting 6 hours in LAX airport like old time PUDU RAYA, haha... just with better environment. But, it was not fun at all. Even wanted connect to internet also $$.
When I touched down in PHX, like step in the Oven, can feel the heat! Getting a car, is just small car, but comfortable! I'm so proud of myself, I still can recognize the way to my old apartment. My buddy already waited me in my apartment with the stuffs that I needed. Meeting back old good friend is cool! I was so excited, immediate drove away and stock up foods and waters!
1st night, 2nd night, 3rd night ... 5 nights, GOSH, i was JET Lag!! Now, still not 100% recover, still wake up few times 1-2am; 3-4am; 5-6am. Hell, but better now!
Life here so far so good, but starting to feel "bored" feeling. It will take time to build up friendship in new environment. Hopefully, I can find more friends like my last assignment here. I miss our AZ Gang...
Job wise, just started report to work on last Tuesday, still in progress knowing ppls here. The working environment here totally different than mother land. In my place, I loved go around and fool around with friends; here all have their own circle of friends. If believe things are different in CD. BUT, i still will choose here... I know I can survive here better!
