I'll be ready in front of the tv tonight for the final of the Amazing Race Asia. The finalists are Marc & Rovilson, from the Philippines, Adrian & Collin, from Singapore, and Vanessa & Pamela from Malaysia. I am rooting for Adrian & Collin because throughout the race they were consistent 2nd place just behind Marc & Rovilson. I dont want Marc & Rovilson to win coz they have won soooo many things already by just being in 1st place in several pitstops during the race (6 consecutive times!) Also, they have been getting cocky lately so I no likey hehe Lets see..if I recall correctly, So far they've won themselves a Sony Camcorder each, 2 travel packages to 2 different places (one is South Africa) and also a money bonanza of $20,000 through Standard Chartered Card. If Vanessa and Pamela wins, that would be cool too coz for the 2nd consecutive year, an all female team wins the race. That would also make them the 2nd all-female team to win the amazing race series (including Amazing Race). The 1st all female team Amazing Race Asia winners were Zabrina and Joe Jer,also from Malaysia. So who are you rooting for tonight?

My bro msned me last night and asked me to check out this particular blog. Apparently this girl is getting attention from the whole of Brunei for her irresponsible comments on our own and only University. Comments are multiplying by the hour. Last night the comments stand at 22 and this morning it is now 38 and counting. I must say this girl is quite irresponsible in making a statement before getting out the facts. I was quite intrigued in this girl as she then responded by saying she is not condemning UBD, but now the people. If you read her initial post "now and the future", her whole post clearlys shows she is condemning UBD and not the people.

To the blog owner

"My dear, in your post, you said LAW is one the subject that you would want to pursue in. Based on your defence, you already lost. You say one thing before, then you claim you said something different when in fact, it is already in writing. Sorry my dear, you have lost the basic in LAW. Therefore, not need pursuing in that do you? For communication, you also fail in the first thing in life. Admitting you are wrong , for your irresponsible comments. Instead, you choose to defend yourself which by saying you meant another thing. You say you have dreams therefore you want to pursue studies in the UK, not UBD which is limited with its courses. For someone who claims to have a dream, you sure are unique. A person who has dreams are daring to decide their own fate and are brave to venture into the new. A person who has dreams makes their own path in life and do not play safe by applying into UBD just as IN CASE you dont get a scholarship, which my dear is what you are doing. If you are not happy with UBD and is afraid of ending up becoming a teacher, then don't apply. YOU yourself decide your own fate. I for one, am someone who ended my studies at A-level. At that time, I could not further my study to university and the only path that was safe for me to get a secured job was to apply to UBD to become a teacher WHICH I decided not to go for. Why? Because I was brave enough not to play safe and I was honest with myself to say I for one, do not wish to become a teacher as I know I am not committed to be one. Being a teacher has big responsibilites and I for one, do not want to be one just to play safe. I wanted to do something else which fulfills my interests. THAT my dear is a person who has dreams"

I need to say no more and there's lots of people who has been replying back to her blog. Click here to find out more.

*note: Majority of the comments are mixed with Bruneian Malay language

Friday, was treated to a malay movie (thanks ji ^_^) called CUCI at Qlap Cineplex. We came late.Well, 15mins late to be exact. CUCI is directed by Hans Isaac and as usual, the gang (Afdlin Shauki, AC Mizal & Awie) is also in the movie. Lots of laughs to be expected in the movie. Worth watching people so go out and see it.



Saturday, went to see RAMBO. Decided 15mins before I was due to head back to KB. Didn't get to attend the IM Charity Evening as I was suppose to go back to KB that evening. anyways, the movie was gruesome. Stallone was still charasmatic and cool in his own way. I am giving the movie an A+ for the action and surreal battles. One thing to note, this movie is not for the young everyone. Please do not bring children to watch this as it is too visual (involves lots of decapitated heads, sliced bodies, etc you name it, they've got it!) I was disappointed as I saw IRRESPONSIBLE parents bringing their kids to watch it. Couldnt they like bring their kids watch Barney or something at home??? Anyways, back to about RAMBO. Despite bring engrossed in the movie on the surreal battles, I came to a feeling of sadness for the people who had to live through the life of risking being killed everyday. I am going to leave the suspense here for everyone. You'll have to watch the movie to understand. Just expect lots of tingling feeling from the various brutal killing/torture scenes. Best part of the movie for me: the part where it involves "archery"

Was a treasure hunting adventure last night! Yup. I have watched National Treasure 2. It makes me love History even more. Now i want to take History as my Major haha What is exciting that it makes me wonder how, what is in the History books that we are being taught, has the possibility of not being what it seems. (Noah, you started this when we were in the Cafe in Japan).... Interesting eh? What is in the books are maybe what we are led to believe... Personally I love the 1st movie better compare to this one. The twist and turns in the 1st movie was exciting with all of the secrets being discovered by Nicholas Cage. I loved the cool table in the 2nd movie!! Check that out. And whats with Nicholas Cage haircut in the movie??? Hahaha it kept bothering me hehe Sorry everyone if you're expecting a review of the movie. I just write what's on the top of my head right now

Won a ticket to Kuching last week!! It was the 2nd last edition of RBA's promotion on Kristal FM. All we had to do was sms to Kristal FM and tell them why we would like to win the airticket to Kuching.

My winning entry "I want to win the airticket to Kuching because I've never been to Kuching ever in my life. I want to see the wonders Kuching has to offer and also meet the famous blogger Kenny fr Kennysia.com. I want to eat the Kuching Laksa that Kuching prides for and take pictures of the Cat Statues! And finally I want to see the magical Santubong Mountain"

RBA has yet to call me on about me winning the ticket (and they better do sometime soon!) but I still say "Kuchiinnnngggg HERE I COME!"

I encountered a roadblock last night at Sengkurong. Note that my car was still quite new. License plate even started with KM (we are now registering KN). I have never modified my car and I have no plans to do so. I was stopped and two female policewomen was thoroughly checking out my car. The policewoman on the left was really eyeing my car and she was even checking my roadtax. Roadtax?? What?? Emm DUHHH.. don't you see that my car's brand new by the license plate??? Even my car model's new! I'm sure the Land transport Dept wouldn't have let my car go into the streets with a KM license if I didn't have a roadtax which by logic would be new of course! What astounded me was the policewoman on the right was even checking out my passenger seat and the body of my car... Again, note that my passengers were wearing seatbelts so we were abiding the safety rules. Note again, I didnt have any bodykits, modified rims or tyres. STOCK CAR still!!! Note: Stock car is the original car itself. No modifications made. What made me unsatisfied was after all that she said "Ok lah" as if I had something on my car which wasn't to their satisfaction but she was letting me go! "Ok lah" ??? Thats all? She should have said "ok" but she said "Ok lah" !! Made me blabbing all the way home.. &%^*$!!!!

It's sad that after so many deaths from Road accidents in Brunei that the relevant authorities have just started to take action. They are now conducting Road Safety Campaigns with the Ministers and District Officers even joining to the streets to advise people upfront. Sad really considering the fact that this problem was actually acknowledged 10 years ago!!! and yet they were still laid back...Enjoying the scenery.. For the past 10 years, I have seen not much campaigning on road safety. Fining and speed cameras are still at their minimum, ESPECIALLY fining. The system has always been the same in combatting road safety. To make things worse, roadblocks would only be concentrating on car bodykits, small license plates, tinted windows. Yeaahh....lets educate our generation that small license plates, car bodykits and tinted windows causes accidents.. and I thought its from the drivers attitude and ethics that causes them. Instead of those things, we should educate the public and concentrate on the attitude and the ethics. I can't imagine how people who installed sport springs are fined when those people are the ones who drive slow coz of the regular "humping" (excuse the word) motion!! They can't drive fast esp on the condition of our roads. I think its time all of us esp relevant authorties to attend a crash course on CARS, road safety and ways on driving.

Finally got to use the empire cinema tickets which I won from HSBC. Enchanted was over already so we had to choose either I am Legend or Alvin and the Chipmunks. My friend wasn't a fan as she thought I am Legend was a Sci-Fic flick but I knew it was more than that. So we went ahead and booked Alvin and the Chipmunks instead. I remember the cartoon as I used to watch them almost everyday throughout my childhood. My mum used to tape them and we used to watch them over and over again. It was hilarious at the movies as we were watching it with a cinema full of kids. You'd hear the non-stop laughters esp this one particular kid who couldnt stop and he would still be laughing even after everyone stopped hehe hence making everyone continued laughing again. I wish I was a kid again. Its worth watching so do watch it guys esp if you love their voices. Remember that? Hehe My fav is Theodore. I love them plump hehe cute tummy nya atu wah! plus, he loves to eat haha

People who diet and who likes to comment on the food people eat, havent lived. They spend too much time worrying if they get fat. People who worry too much will just age older *haha* *evil laugh*

Was commuting on my way to work Tuesday morning when a friend's tyre blew just right in front of us. err.. I think "crumpled" would be appropriate. When you view the pics, you'd understand. Apparently, his tyre has already expired!! Year 1999!! Emm.. D, what year is this? Oh yeah! its 2007!! hahaha well, we stood there for an hour plus waiting for these two mechanics to help out. We spent more time trying to figure out how to get his spare tyre out from the bottom of his car instead of changing it haha D was lucky he got away again unhurt as he just had a terrible accident with the same car last month. He even walked away from the accident laughing eventhough the car was upside down! Haha Anyways, good to know things turned out alright.

A message to my fellow friends and families who are commuters. Please regularly check your tyres ESPECIALLY the expired date (jgn marah D) and drive safe.

eyy..you can see the threads..

my shy friend
