its not over.

January 26, 2009

I just got back from a daytrip to Miri to see my grandmother and aunts for CNY. I am so tired and feel like sleeping now but I know I won’t sleep this early. Anyway my internet came back on randomly two days ago. I had to survive 2 days of no internet after having survived 2 days of no electricity. Thank goodness I still had water though, I felt so sorry for those who were electricity and water deprived, double combo right there man.

Day before yesterday was Javon‘s birthday (happy belated birthday! :D) and I was supposed to go out and have dinner with them but I cancelled last minute cause I was feeling really sick. I had major period cramps and even puked once. It was terrible. Then my mum made some scrambled eggs with ginger and wine?? When I ate it I instantly felt 10 times better, no joke man. I don’t know what I would do if this happens to me again when I’m in Melb and no one’s gonna cook these stuff for me to make me feel better 😦 I went to sleep at 9pm, so damn early! Then I got woken up by the heavy rain. I was so scared that it was gonna be like a Tuesday night again, but thankfully no.

I woke up early yesterday, at like 8am then I had a 45 minute snooze hahah 😀 I went to trim my eyebrows, cause I think my eyebrows are so damn ugly and messy.  So now it looks so much better and neater, but I have to like use an eyebrow pencil to like draw the lines and stuff.. but I don’t know how to do that so.. hahah. I went for brunch at Cafe De Paris with my mum and there were like a lot of people there, probably cause a lot of other restaurants were closed today.

After buying all the softdrinks with my mum, I went out for “lunch” with Carrie and Chen, who just reached Brunei last night. So much for lunch hahah, me and Chen already ate so we all just ordered something light to eat at Cheezbox. After that we went stationery shopping since we want to avoid buying expensive stationery in Melb.. although I do think even the prices of stationery here are already expensive. Cheaper than other countries maybe but still expensive! A shaker pencil costs $3!! I ended up buying it though cos a shaker is cooler than a non-shaker 🙂 I guess that’s why supermarkets can charge high prices for stuff like that.. cause we are all suckers and always give in 😦 I hate buying stuff from kedai runcit/indian book stores though, so rip off okay! I only get stuff from there if I have to.

Er yah got carried away there. Picked Javon up after that and chilled out at Dunes for a while. I guess it’s a nice place cause it’s quiet and windy there so it’s very cooling. Oh yeah!!! We saw an Audi R8 parked right infront of us, the guy who owned it went to Dunes as well. So rich 😦 Next time I must own at least one of these cars man.

I went home after that and started hardcore cleaning the house. My back is aching right now and I have not felt this tired ever since I still had school last year. My mum laughed at me when I told her that and she was all “Nah you see how hard it is now!” Lol. Omg my neighbours are so nice! Two of them came over to our house last night and gave us 2 boxes of 100 Plus. They did the same thing last year, and they gave us a few other stuff as well. So random, but it’s cool. Oohh yay fireworks are going off now!

I went to the temple last night at midnight. So many people man! And the ashes from the incense kept dropping on my arms. The smoke kept getting into my eyes, so I looked like I was crying. Ok I’m really tired right now 😦 I’m gonna go eat mandarin oranges and watch Friends now.

Happy Chinese New Year! 😀

You set my soul alight

January 21, 2009

Omg I guess I better post while I can. I’m over at Carrie‘s now, where she’s living the life with electricity and internet 😦 I feel like a damn cavewoman at home, no electricity, no nothing! The whole damn Kiarong is in blackout now hahaha. Stupid rain! See you all still like the rain or not! LOL nola I’m just being bitter. The power at my house cut off at like 10am, which obviously woke me up and I was hoping the electricity would come back again in a few minutes but I guess I was wrong… Luckily Carrie and Javon saved me from my house and we went out for lunch at Yappy. It took a while to get to Javon’s cause the roundabout was jammed lor.. I didn’t really get to see the flooded tunnel though, too bad! It made things so much harder cause whenever we wanted to go somewhere, we’d have to figure out a way to get there without using the roundabout.. which sucks. But anyway, they brought their laptops out and we surfed the internet and webcammed with Freddy while having lunch. Javon was watching Nip/Tuck and I watched it with him and its quite interesting ah. Javon gave me the first disc but I CAN’T WATCH IT 😦

We then went on a tour around to see the effects of the flood. First stop after lunch was Gadong, and there were like sand everywhere through the back entrance. It’s hard to explain it here, you should just go and have a look. Bumped into some of the Year 12s (ISB ppl got off day cos of flood/power failure or smtg haha so song) and then Jason and Tse Tow and they were telling us about the situations last night.. sounded so messed up la, so kesian the cars that died. Then we wanted to kepo and go to Unitek and the shops were flooded.. so kesian lor they had to clean up everything. Then this Javon went in Unitek and wanted to exchange DVDs again hahaha so ‘mou leong sam’ one, people got flooded already still wanna exchange. Then we took another look around, went to the bridge and looked at the river.. the water level was damn high last night. There are like tin cans and other rubbish stuck in between the pipes, so gross. Then we picked Jasper and then left to Subok to kepo around more haha, it’s a lot worse there than the places I’ve seen today(except the tunnel) with all the landslides and everything.

I went home after that, in hopes that we would already have electricity by then. False hopes man 😦 still no electricity! Had to shower 10mins after I got home cause it was getting dark. I couldn’t even blowdry my hair! I actually still thought that I could blowdry my hair.. this is called too dependent on electricity. I was trying to sleep face down (so I dont lie on my wet hair, ew) while letting my hair dry naturally.. so tired ok I woke up so early! Anyway I followed my mum out after that to eat dinner. No way am I gonna rot at home in darkness man.

Showering today was torture, cause I cannot stand cold water! I am too used to showering in hot water. I guess the only good thing out of it is that I shower for less than 10mins cause it’s damnnn cold! I actually got ready in 20mins today.. I broke my own record! 😀 but hot water is the best.

Omg I’m so tired from typing now. I’m so depressed now, thinking about going home to a dark house with no aircon to sleep with at night 😦 The electricity and internet better come back tomorrow man! Ok I’m gonna make use of the internet now.

This world is just built on lies

January 20, 2009

Ignore the emo title, I’m not feeling emo at all haha. I just typed whatever comes to my mind.

It keeps raining heavily these few days, it’s so annoying. Like shut up already! Anyway, so sien la the site is always dead, I know. Nothing to blog about ok. Javon‘s already blogged about Rock Band Night that happened at Carrie‘s last week. Oh, it was Carrie‘s birthday on Sunday so happy belated birthday(although I already wished you like everywhere else lol)!  Omg she’s 19. I don’t wanna be 19 😦 18 is such a cool age to be.

I’m all pumped up and excited for CNY, which is in a week from now! So fast man. It’s time to clean up the house and start hanging all the CNY decos. Hahah the CNY decos make the house look happier and better. I wish I had CNY songs to play, I’m so in the mood man! I keep singing CNY songs randomly (eventhough its more like humming cause I dno the lyrics) and my mum keeps asking why I’m always singing. I always feel like I’m a little kid again at this time of the year, where I’m all excited about wearing new clothes, getting new stuff, dyeing my hair a new colour or getting a new hairstyle, although that’s not the case this year cause I’m too lazy and stuff. And omg, how could I forget all the food that you only see during CNY? Keropok with acar, kueh mor, pineapple tarts, mandarin oranges…… (and many others I dno the name of) shit I’m not doing this to piss anyone off ok it’s making me so hungry right now 😦

Oh yea, the other day I was shopping with my mum in Hua Ho Yayasan and we were just looking at the bags and whenever we just touched a bag this stupid saleslady would immediately come up and adjust the bag like one second after you put it down on the display table. She didn’t even wait for us to go away to do that. Omg what a bitch man I was so pissed off at her and her bitchy face. Urghhh.

I am so annoyed now! I keep pausing while typing up this blog because I didn’t know what to say. In IB, blogging was still so easy because you just tend to complain about it naturally, no need to stop and think. There was always something to complain or bitch about.

Omg, I want to go shopping! I hope I can wake up earlier tomorrow and go out with my mum or something. There is this reallllly cute dress that I’ve been eyeing on for a few weeks now and I want it!! It’s just I don’t have a lot of dresses and this one’s really cute 😦 Ew, I sound like such a brat hahahah.

Ok you know what, I give up on blogging for today. My mouth is watering right now because I am hungry and I need to find something to eat.

So no one told you life was gonna be this way.

January 13, 2009

So my sleeping hours still haven’t changed. It’s all Friends’ fault, I swear! I’ve been staying up watching Friends for.. quite a while now. But I guess it’s worth it 😀 I’m gonna go for another injection tomorrow so I have to make this quick. I went to Miri the other day for a day trip to get all the stuff I need to bring to Melbourne. I got contacts enough to last me for a year, jeans and shoes! 😀 Ok not all, but the ones that were necessary. And yeah, the shoes were necessary. I was planning on getting new sunnies, but there wasn’t enough time. It was a very productive trip 😀 The journey back to Brunei was a bitch though, there was a jam in KB and then right after that, it started raining so heavily we couldn’t even see the roads anymore and had to drive sooo slow, my bladder was gonna burst. We ended up reaching home 2 hours later than we were supposed to.

Oh and the night before I went to Miri I got a parking ticket! 😦 bitch man, my first ticket ever. I parked where we weren’t supposed to park, outside the De Royalle block where everyone parked. Pfft sienz. And I was one of the very unlucky few who got fined for that. Of course I didn’t have the guts to say anything to the police because I’m a noob.

So I’ve started taking my big luggage out and putting stuff in it, mostly clothes because I know that is like the hardest thing to pack (or maybe it’s just me). I mean, you can’t bring your whole closet of clothes but then what if you need the ones that you’re gonna leave behind? Sigh so depressing. Yesterday my suitcase was empty and today it’s almost full. Yeah ok so I got a little bit excited and started putting a lot of my clothes in. Wheee this is so exciting! 😀

Anyway I gotta get to bed now, getting late.

if only this was the last time..

January 7, 2009

Why am I always posting at insane hours when everyone is sleeping? 😦

Life is getting pretty boring (reason why I don’t blog much anymore) which is why I just want to leave earlier. There’s nothing exciting going on anymore. Everything we wanted to do and experience has already been done in probably the first 3 months of our holiday. By the 5th or 6th month, it gets pretty boring, and by the 8th month… oh lord. Um yeah I’m not trying to rub it in anyone’s faces or anything cause honestly it’s nothing to brag about, in fact I feel so useless right now. Soon I will be buried in books and assignments again, yay. (I can’t decide if that sentence should be sarcastic or not.)

So today was another useless day. I woke up at like, 1.30pm which is pretty early for me. Oh yeah, I got pretty frustrated today because I kept trying to call Singapore Airlines since before 4pm until 5pm, and they were busy the whole time!! Omg torture man, trying to get on the line. I had this sudden and very random urge to bake some delicious cookies that Carrie made a few times last year… yeah I have no idea why, it’s just not like me to want to bake something so suddenly. Ok, it’s just not like me to want to bake, period. Obviously I didn’t bake cause I didnt have the recipe or the ingredients.

I have started watching Friends! 🙂 Almost done with Season 1 now, and I have Seasons 2 and 3 waiting for me. Definitely something to keep me occupied for at least a month, yay! Ok um it’s getting pretty late and I kinda want to wake up early tomorrow so I gotta go.

Happy new year!

January 3, 2009

Happy new year all! 😀 Sorry for the late greeting, I just got my internet back in the afternoon. Seems like I have just returned to civilization. 4 days without internet was just plain torture. I expected Freddy to blog while I was away.. but no he didnt -.-

On NYE, I had dinner with Carrie at Capers. At first we wanted to have it at Countrypatch, but then the kitchen was closed already, so we went to Twelv, but then they were only serving the ala carte at 10pm, cause they have their NYE dinner promotion thing. So soi lor! Hahaha, so we went to Capers. Saw a lot of familiar faces, it was very weird la. Omg, dinner was sooo good! We had the all you can eat thing… it was so so satisfying!  I think their chef was in a very good mood that night, the food was in their best state on NYE. After that, we went to Ama‘s room in Empire. There were quite a few random people in the room, but time seemed to pass quite fast cause soon it was time to countdown! We watched the fireworks from the balcony and it was so pretty! Of course in other places Brunei’s fireworks are like nothing la but.. whatever haha.

Um yeah I’m kinda lazy to blog, so zzz. Yay for the internet! I feel like I have things to do now.. but then the internet is also kinda crappy now 😦 better than no internet, I guess. Will update soon!
