yet another quick post..
should i feel guilty that i almost completely forgot i have a blog? :s. so anyway, its the school holiday but as usual, yours truly still has to go to work. 
this week was specially, extra, super-duper busier than the usual busy weeks. mycousin, who is a mere 3 months older than me, tied the knot. 
congratulations to the newly weds, abang dedeq and fayirose… 
may you life together be filled with happiness..
as usual, theres a lot of stories to post and as usual, i simply do not have the energy to think of a witty way to present them. so until then..
HO-LEEEE-DAY!!!
finally!! its the last day of school! oh happy daaaay~ for the next 2 weeks, i plan to wake up (catch up on what i lost since i started working) and just enjoy my bed! hehehe.. iski saya.. so anyway, on the last day, my school decided to hold a sport selection where basically, whoever is interested in representing their house, today was the day. we pick the best three. i was responsible on recoring for the best girl runners in 100m & 200m. awal2 pagi lagi tu. so i was done after an hour. then i spent the rest of the event wandering aimlessly around the field, finding shade. it was a freaking hot day!!
some pics:
my view of the field, under the shade. it was peaceful. windy. 
the girls running the 400m. kiut drang belari!! hahaha..
the boys.. i think they’re in form 1? 2?
my first attempt of taking the boys running. hahahah.. you can only see a leg.. laju wah drang ah..
aites, thats it for now. let the relaxation begin.. 
bangas..
that is how i feel about posting lately. it feels like everytime i wanna blog an event, it turned out it happened weeks ago where most, if not all (hey, brunei IS small) people knew about it already. my posts are not only old news, they’re considered classic. hahaha.. ok, over. but yea.
there’s only one word that can pretty much sum up my life right now: tiring. hahaha. i know. i’ve said it once,i’l say it again! i’m TAIYOOOD!! honestly, i don’t feel it most of the time. i actually like going around the room explaining to my students eventhough the speed is constant, the velocity is changing (circular motion). i feel immensely satisfied seeing them going from *toink* *toink,toink* to “ahhhhhh.. i geddit!!” its afterwards that i feel drained. especially after teaching one particular class who does not wanna learn. more than once was i tempted to just not care. i mean, they’re the ones who’s going to fail. not me. sapa suruh inda mau pay attention? but… then i’d feel guilty. my job is to make them understand, no matter how boring. or maybe its just karma. i wasn’t exactly the perfect student myself.
i knew it was gonna come around and bite me in the ass..
more old news: my batch was called in last week for an interview regarding a more permanent job. i think because i knew the interview was almost the same as the one i did for my current job, i was not as nervous as i should be. i was focusing more on trying not to kusut. i actually had fever the day before. you know the kusut feeling? the one where everything just feels so wrong?? you don’t know what but you just know. everything is either too hot or too cold? and since you can’t do anything about it, you have this huge tendency to kusut/whine? ….yea. i was going through that. it was not fun. thankfully, the interview went well. Alhamdulillah.
other agenda that keeps reminding me that i’m getting older, is my friend, Mala, who got engaged last nite. so,
CONGRATULATIONS TO
SITI NORMALA HAJI AWANG DAMIT & MD. SYAZWAN HAJI ABU BAKAR
who got engaged last night. May Allah bless you both and sampai ke jinjang pelamin.
there are pictures, but i cant seem to find ’em right now. heh. sorry. will most them when i have the time. gots to go now. have lessons to plan.
salaam, pujiah..
weekends.
last weekend has been one very tiring and busy. the very opposite if what the weekend before had been.
2 weekends ago:
-
woke up late. (noon-ish..?)
-
stayed in bed eventhough i was already awake.
-
went out to get my photos from mizi. (3pm)
-
decided to go to fundonuts. it has been receiving rave reviews. so i decided to check it out. me and eyan (lil sis) arrived around 3.45pm. and there was a line! a freakin long one!! at a freakin doughnut shop!! i was about to walk away when eyan said “what else do we have to do today?” …point taken. so we decided to stay in line and bitch about the service at the same time. everything was finally done and paid for about 2 hours later. yes, TWO hours. AAAANNDDD we bought $26 worth of doughnuts. after that long wait, you can bet your @$$ we’re gonna make it worth our money and time. anyway, we bought 2 boxes of these:
nyaman usulnya kan??? oh, and apparently, there was some drama going on. i was, apparently, oblivious to the whole thing. well, i caught snippets of it at the end but thats pretty much it. (man, i am in my own world..). so anyway, there’s this lady in front of eyan and me. all she sed was “aku mau 3 kutak.” (“i want 3 boxes”). the person in charge was a bit slow and maybe blank. then again, it was kinda hectic. but in her defense, there are two types of boxes (6’s & 12’s). and just because of that, lady customer called her “babal.” (“idiot”.) pms, much? sheesh.. dont you know, you’re ordering food from her ?? she could spit in ‘em lady!! and as it turns out, she was waiting for one more doughnut but rather than giving it to lady customer, she gave it to us.. MWAHAHAHAHAHA.. oh, when she was finally done, she tired to walk out in a huff, all pissed off but she was called back sal she still owed then about $5. d’oh! *slaps forehead* (yan, good game.. good game.. )
-
then relaxed the rest of the day..
last weekend:
-
woke up around 8am. (mother wanted us to be early for the 11am second cousin’s wedding reception)
-
10.30am: finally on the way to the mall. wedding reception was held @ Rizqun. (which explains the slightly less grumblings)
-
before going up to the ballroom, i had to help a dear uncle find parking space in the basement area. it was hilarious in a knocks-head-against-wall kinda way. i mean, i was trying to help him find the easiest (and nearest) space but ia mcm main tabak saja. hehehe.
-
i actually had fun until my uncles decided to bully on me. and my ‘gitau nene karang!’ attempt fell on deaf ears.
-
went home about 2pm. thot had time to freshen’ up but Surya (my bride friend for the next 2 weeks) requested us to come earlier. so dropped my mom and eyan off, then tarus pick up Bo.
-
stayed at Sur’s until 6.30pm. spent most of the time daydreaming of MY wedding.. :p
we somehow showed up with the same colour theme. hehehe.
Sur getting ready 
me with the bride to be
then went home, picked up eyan and drove her straight to the airport. paul’s came home from KL yesterday. but his flight was kinda delayed so i stayed until ….8.30pm?
-
finally around 10pm, i was home, clean and snoring
so yeaaa.. very tired.. oh, n this week pun mcm banyak events to go to.. the rest of Sur’s wedding ceremony.. my frineds are getting married lerrr… :s honestly, i’m 50-50 when it comes to marriage. i am at the stage where i can’t wait to build my life with B but also at the stage where i wanna enjoy my independence.. hmmmm.. alum jua ku beduit kan kawin wah… hheehehe. iski banar.. :p
neways, taiyod. taaaaaaa~
with all my love and affection.

raya-ing with friends..
today is one heck of a tiring day. i went raya-ing with my UBD friends. i miss them so it was a fun day. hehehe. we decided to meet up at Bo’s place @10am. yours truly was only about 10minutes late. i think. hehe. summary of the day: we started at 10am, we visited 10 houses and i went home around 10pm. *tiiirrreeedd*
so will update soon..
ok, close to a week later. haha. i’m sorry. the malas bug kinda bit me. hard. bangas tia kali dah ceta ani.. lets see if i stil remember wat happened that day. hehe.
first, we decided to meet up at bo’s place at 10am. yours truly arrived 10.10am.. ish. haha. that’s almost on time!!
atul, bo, bo’s nephew: adam & sur.
the first house that we decided to visit was Sur’s amit. kids were everywhere in that place. suddenly, i’m having second thots of having one of my own. kids intimidate me. well, thoses who are well above 5 years lah.. hehe..
us with Sur’s family..
after that, we decided to go on a lil road trip. TUTONG!!! hehe.. macam jauh saja bunyinya.. :p ok, bimbo moment: for this roadtrip, i offered my car. i didn’t mind driving. however, arriving at sur’s amit’s place, i remembered, i left my driving license. at home. sigh. *slaps forehead* so sur had to drive. since we do have the same car. hehe.
sur driving with full concentration. hehe. :p
the ladies touching up their make up otw…
being vain
the first place that we visited in tutong was rae’s. his mom cooked just for us.
@ rae’s 
atul rempit at rae’s
next was abby’s place. he was having an open house, so food everywhere. nyaman lagi tuu..
at abby’s..
theeeeeeeeen, we visited bo’s fiance, dilah. again, food were prepared for us. dilah’s mom cooked when she heard we were coming.
there’s actually another photo with dilah but i looked fat. so not gna post that. hehe.
from bo’s fiance, we went to bo’s friend, edy. :lol: 
(oh! oh! i almost forgot the highlight of the trip! i think leaving abby’s place, someone came up with this stupid game where we wenren’t allowed to utter one word of english he entire time we were in tutong.. whoever did were to be punished by the other members. i’m proud to say that i was doing well. ME, yang payah2an kan cakap melayu. hehe. …….until we went to edy’s. *grumble* you know, i just realised, i think i came up with the game.. *peace*)
lestuuu, along’s! he is one of the sweetest guy i know. i think we actually spent longer time there than any other houses. except for jill. :p
after along’s, we decided to make our way back to muara. i think another game was played but it wasn’t as meriah as the first one. hehe. bo had to pee real bad. (who wouldn’t after 6 houses??) so we made a pit stop at empire.
me, jill and sur in the car while atul and bo ‘did their business’.. from there. we picked up mizi and proceed to visit waznah. again, there was food. :s i swear to god, all the weight that i lost during fasting month was gained in that one day.
mizi @waz. this was NOT a candid pic.. hehehehehehe
next stop was Jill’s. sur wanted to watch the malaysian astronaut thingy. i actually didnt know it was THAT big a deal. frog under the coconut shell, much? :s
@ jill’s. i look shiny..
after jill, we went to ratna’s and lastly, goose’s place. again, food galore. surprisingly, i could still eat. hahahahahaha. no wonder my siblings call me fat. i eat a LOT!! then again, compared to the stick insects, i probably am.. huhu..
@ ratna’s 
@ goose’s. the baby i’m holding is one of goose’s many nephews/nieces.
kiiiiiuuuut,no? he is such a docile kid. i remember looking down at him & say “hi, baby.. watcha dooin?” his response : *toink* *toink,toink* eeeeee, geram..
and finally, after that, baliiiik.. all in all it was a successful raya-ing. hehe. so, thats all. i gtg now. remembering that day is making me hungry..
taaaaaa~
Selamat Hari Raya!
ok, so, i’m writing this on the 3rd day of raya, its not my fault!! the connection sucks lately and i couldn’t find any other way. so here it is:
Selamat Hari Raya to everyone out the who knows i exist. i’m sorry for all the things that i might have done to hurt/offended you. i swear, it was not on purpose. (most of the time anyway.. :p) forgive me and halalkan my makan and minum. also, thank you for those who gave me a text msg but i didnt reply. (yes, david. its you. hehe.)
before i go, funny story: i was in the kicthen, when i heard this high-pitched voice outside. “umi. abi. laju!!” it was kaer. how a tiny thing can produce such a loud voice, i will never know. *shrug* when i opened the door, the lil guy shouts with a very proud look on his face, “SELAMAT HARI JADI!!” hahahahahahahahahahahaha cute, no?
