I stalled the manual car yet again during my driving lesson. But less times today ^^ So I shall say that's an improvement. =D

Lalala... stayed at home for the rest of the day. I didn't do much today. I took my dalmatian for a walk during the early evening time. Man, he's strong and tugs at the lead really hard. I have to catch up with him at times. He likes to pee all over the place to mark his territory, like all dogs do. Except that, he kindda doesn't lift his leg at times, as dogs normally do. He just 'lets it go' whenever he feels like it. WEIRD! hahah...

I'm gonna have an early night today. I don't know why, I just feel like dozing off already. Ta!

Stalling
11:03 AM
I'm gonna have my 3rd driving lesson today. I keep stalling the car! Especially at the traffic light junction lagi. So embarassing you know, to stop in the middle of the junction where the traffic lights are. And it has not only happened once, but twice! =S I hope I don't do the same today, if not, I'm not progressing at all. During my last lesson, my teacher was like talking on the phone the whole time during my lesson and was hardly attending to me. I was like dot dot dot. Why was she like this? I'm paying a price for the lesson, hello...?

I helped out in Charles and Keith again yesterday evening. I noticed that some customers can come into the shop 3 times in a week and buy a pair each visit. 0_O whoa. seriously man. I just want more hours to earn more money, hehe.

Hari Raya is just around the corner. I don't know whether I'm going do much visiting. I feel like every year, the number of houses I visit gets less and less.


The girls =P

Over 3 days, I have found myself to be a workaholic! Haha, I have actually found working to be F-U-N! Been helping out in both Virtuoso, filling in as the receptionist, and at Charles and Keith, as a cashier and helping round the shop. I'm gonna get paid! =D So I'm calculating my hours. Business has been good at C&K over the pass 3 days as we just had new arrivals and also its Ramadhan and people are shopping for Raya stuff.

So like everyday I've been out for almost the whole day helping out at both businesses. =) And I surprisingly am not that tired at the end of the day, haha, I enjoy myself.

The girls are coming over later for some CG bonding time.

I hit the road tomorrow with my practical driving lessons =) I think I'm gonna learn how to park first? Not sure. I hope I don't mess up, cause I heard the teacher is strict. Good, but strict.

My UK-studying friends are all returning back one by one. Sniffs.

For the rest of the weekdays this week, I'll be helping out in Virtuoso to replace the receptionist. I hope I don't get bored just sitting there.

Happy Belated Birthday to my bro, Josh! 15 only and so freaking tall! Taller than my dad even man. Stop growing vertically!

I've  been watching alot of movies lately. Wall.E, Money Not Enough 2, Mamma Mia... Last night I watched Be Kind, Rewind starring Jack Black. It had an interesting storyline. Funny of course cause duh, its Jack Black. But like my grandparents watched it with me together with my brothers and my grandmother did not get the movie at all! So kesian, she was saying like this is the first movie she watch in the cinema that she didn't enjoy.

My grandfather is having his eye operation now. Praying that everything goes well.

I called up my driving teacher just know and....
I passed my driving theory test! Woohoo! I start my practical lessons this Wednesday morning! Yay! Finally...! =D

Another Excapade
Thursday, September 18, 2008
8:06 PM
I went out to eat at Excapade yesterday with Sharon, as it was her last day in Brunei. Both of us are huge Excapade fans. hehe, meaning we like good food. =P One thing that was pretty weird and annoying was that the electricity kept on tripping, in a total of about 5 times I think. But after that it was okay la. It was only during the first 15 mins that we were there. There were hardly anyone eating there man, there were like only two tables (and that includes our table).

I ordered my usuals. =D


Enoki Battayaki

Banana Milkshake


After the makan, we went to Gadong properties to pay shar's DST bill, and we picked up milk teas. So cute the cover. haha.

Mum's back, we went to pick her up at the airport today. I didn't know there was Jolibee there.

Haha, this is a random pic of Von's gate. =P Took it whilst waiting for her to come out.

Mum bought me a few clothes and a pair of jeans that I can't fit! ='( I think this means I need to lose weight?

Mamma Mia!

Watched Mamma Mia with my family last night. It was pretty good, I mean the storyline was good. The musical part was alright too, but of course I didn't know all the songs la, mostly from Abba and Beatles I think. I've always liked the song Dancing Queen tho'. Its always been catchy to me. =D And this is like the first time I heard Pierce Brosnan sing! Not bad le... All the actors sang pretty good. It is their real voice, dubbed, so in the movie they only lip sing. 

After the movie, we had supper at Cheezbox. This is my new favourite drink besides Banana milkshake. Honey Milk Tea!! It's so good... Mmm.


Not long now til' mum comes back! =)

I went to visit my grandpa today in KB. He's gonna have an eye operation next week as he has a cateract on one of eyeballs. He's admitted into the KB Hospital and seems to be really boredd. All he can do is read, as there is no television (at least none facing his way) To make things worst, the place where his bed is, is sooo hot cause it is near a window and so the heat gets in. All this to the extent that my dad and grandma brought a fan from his house for him to make things cooler.

I pray the operation and everything goes smoothly. He has to take his blood several times a day as they are monitoring the viscosity of his blood i thinks. Poor grandpa.

The funniest part of my day was when my grandpa found out that his cheap nokia handphone has a camera. He was just so amazed by it, it was so funnyy.. like never see before ah.

I have to say that the hospital in KB is soooooo much cleaner than the one in Bandar. They even mop the walls! O_o

currenly craving: Banana Milkshake (esp. the one from Frats)

I'm been so into podcasts lately. Especially by Judah Smith and Erwin McManus. I feel like I just can't get enough of feeding my Spirit. I need my inflow to be greater than my outflow to get that OVERFLOW.

Now, some random pics whilst I was in Aussie.


Rocky Road. A dessert. Its like chocolate with marshmellows and peanuts. Cadbury produces it in bars too and its sold in Aussie.


My shrek plasters.



Chocolate covered strawberries. Yum!
I used to have it almost every week in CG. Man, I miss my CG over there. My CG leader was the best!
Hot chocolate with marshmellows. If you look carefully, the marshmellows melted into a heart shape.

While serving in the kids ministry, I myself decided worked on my crayon skills
The creativity of the catering team as we prepared the drinks for the volunteers during conference [heart shaped]

And now that I'm home, I see Dipstick everyday =)

Today my dad took me out to teach me how to drive. My first time behind the wheel! Blehs! We went to an open carpark space at the main stadium. So like now I know the difference between the different pedals namely the clutch, the brake and the accelerator. I also now know how to change between the difference between the different gears. And I sorta have gotten the hang of it in using them. Oh! and I can reverse smoothly and make smooth turns.
.me behind the wheel for the first time.

And the most fabulous part was that I drove a van! hehe. And thats what I'm proud of. Here's a picture to prove it!


But at the end of the day, I'm still a noob, so there is a bit of jerkiness. My dad did have patience with me =)

14 years and still annoying

Happy 14th Birthday to the boy who is still disturbing and annoying me at home almost
 everyday of my life. And yet I love him so. I have to admit that when I'm abroad, I miss him bothering me. To me, he'll always be the best drummer there ever is <3

And to celebrate, our family is going to Charcoal. I think this is like the 3rd or 4th time I'm eating there since I've come back, kindda wanting something different. But oh well, its the birthday boy's choice. I seriously don't know what to order later man.

I've been staying at home the whole day reading my book, listening to podcasts and spending my quiet time with my heavenly fiancee. I'm enjoying my day just chilling at home anyway since tonight I'll be out.

I did my nails yesterday =) Ladybug style
hehe.. experimenting...

YAY!

I passed my mock theory driving exam. I'm so happy. I only made 3 mistakes. According to the teacher, we're not allowed to make any mistakes in section A, and not more than 7 mistakes i section B. I'm so hype about the fact that I actually passed after not really studying for it. =D

I don't have much to say today, except I want a new Sony Ericsson phone. Or maybe the LG Secret! Sniffs... But all this is just a WANT. I can live without it...

I had my second and last lesson of theory for driving today. I almost dozed off! I am just sooo not a morning person. My mocks are on Thursday... Sniffs, so quick. I gotta spend time studying the highway code and what nots. There is quite a lot to go through but then the exam is MCQ, so that makes it a lil' simpler, I guess?

I hope I get to get out on the roads of Brunei next week. I don't feel so scared anymore even tho' I still have never been behind the steering wheel of a car before. hehe. Oh wells...
