Okay... so it's day two of orientation. More briefing... as expected. Since I'm lazy to type, I'll just post up some pictures. When I have the time, I'll upload all of the photos to picasa... As for now, enjoy these...
Some of the former MS guys.
Library tour.
I went out for lunch with a friend to Le Stadium in rimba. The food was kinda nice. Not bad...
Hehe... You can tell by our faces that we were bored. Actually we were posing for this shot... It wasn't candid. We just wanted to express how we felt through our expressions.
To all the Muslims, selamat menyambut isra' mikraj.. Hope you guys enjoy your break. I went to gym today with Ka Wana. We went to Zunic at Batu 1. I went for a walk in session which costs $8... Hmm...the gym is kinda nice compared to the IBB gym in Bandar but they have a private swimming pool which I like. Zunic is pretty simple. Everything is located at one floor. The gym, rooms for classes, office, changing rooms... all on one floor. They have a lot of machines there so you don't have to fight with some fit wannabe person... I like the changing room too... They have sauna in the changing room.
I tried this machine...I don't know what it's called but it might be called a strider. Tried it for 10 minutes and when I got down, I swear I almost fainted. I couldn't see clearly and it was kind of dark, the sound was getting softer and I felt really weird. I was about to throw up as well but then Ka Wana told me to rest so I did. I don't know what happened cos I never felt like that before... not even when I'm really tired. Anyway, I was fine after I got my rest and then continued making my $8 worth... Hehe... You can check out their website at www.zunicwellness.com to learn more about the gym but I think the website is under construction for the time being.
Oh, on the way to the car guess what I saw? The new Nissan GT-R... One of the most talked about car in Brunei at the moment. I'm not much of a car enthusiast but that car really got me talking. Sweet...~

Nice huh..? I couldn't resist but to actually took a picture of this car... =)By the way, I thought I'd post up a video on Isra' Mikraj to commemorate this day so here goes... A simple summary on the event Isra Mi'raj...
Woke up really early today cos I've a got an orientation to attend. As of now, I'm officially a UBD-an. Gosh, the traffic was really bad around UBD this morning...
This was the opening ceremony.
Lunch time.
Its funny how we're at someplace new but we still stick around with all of us ex-MS-ian. We should be talking and getting to know those new people. Theres nothing wrong with sticking with your old friends but we're not gonna be in one faculty after orientation is over. Hmm...that sucks. Anyway, I already got myself into some trouble on the first day of orientation. Imagine what it'll be like for the whole three years I'm gonna be there. I didn't do anything wrong but there was some misunderstanding between me and the people in charge of registration. I was so fucking pissed off! It wasn't my fault anyways... I'm glad tomorrow is a holiday. I wouldn't call it an orientation anyway, it's pure briefing... I mean pure boredom.Today I had a 'Basic Grooming Workshop' at Centrepoint. I came slightly late so I don't know the first presenter's name or anything about her except for her age and that she's from Malaysia =)
The first presenter was talking about basic skin care... Identifying your skin type and what kind of cleansing set you should use depending on the skin type and some make up skills.
The second session was more fun cos she interacted with us more. Thats Evelyn Ch'ng in white with the bob hair cut. She's a certified image consultant from KL. More information about her and her company can be found at www.emagestyle.com. In this session, we get to identify our face shape and what kind of haircut suits us. Then, we identified our skin tone whether its warm or cool using some shimmery cloth which she had prepared and we also learn how to smile the right way... Hehe... It was fun but I was stuck with two older ladies who I don't know of cos Ka Wana and the other two sat in front of me cos the seating arrangement was in rows threes. But overall it is kinda useful and a pretty good one indeed. Worth the money..
This weekend I've got two classes booked in my schedule. The first one is the trading class which I had last night at Rizqun and the other one is the NDO which I had this afternoon... Anyway, I got a parking pass to park at the reserved area in front of the hotel! Haha... sakai.. I know... I came extra early cos I wanted to sit at the front row. I couldn't sit at the special area in front cos I was given the task to teach two new 'pelicans', Adi and the CSI girl...
Some of the girls attendees including myself.
The great teacher himself in action with Adi in green and Sabz with the laptop on the lap.
Some pictures showing how the class looked like. The first picture was taken from the back of the room and the one below it was taken from the most front row, which was where I was seated. These were taken during the short breaks...
Some of us...In the elevator. Happily taking picture... This shot was taken almost 2am cos we finished the class at about 1am.Oh, I don't have pictures of us during dinner cos I was using Sarah's camera then. Last night's theme was 'Kampong Night' so we had ambuyat in the menu. I'll post up the pictures once I got the pictures from her.
By the way, you can go to www.orangeroshan.com to learn what this trading class is about.
Its called NDO. I haven't started my lectures yet. Soon... Anyway, it was at IPA and the BDAC people at the same time were at the beach in Tutong for some reunion. I'm sorry I couldn't make it but the NDO was worth the price as well... =)
Ooh... tomorrow is UBD's registration day! My long break has officially come to an end.. Tsk..tsk..
Went to excapade for sushi today with Ka Wana and Mirul... Ka Wana is treating me to three meals as a reward for something I did and this is the second one. So, I still have to decide where to eat for the third one. Hmm..I cant remember the last time I had a good sushi meal before this one..
The seaweed nyaman but I couldn't finish it cos I was too full.. Anyway, after our meal since none of us had anything to do after that, we went to Qlap mall cos ka wana needed to do some shopping to satisfy herself. Mirul and I just talked while we waited and we kinda tried on all the shades there... Hehe... I want another aviator eh... cos I broke mine.
Me... trying on the ridiculously over-feathered mask...I had a little catching up session with the girls today. We went to Fratinis for our little gathering. There were six of us.. Khal, Nis, Syee, Qil, Yazmyn and myself. The food was awesome as always! Hehe...
Hmm...basically thats just about it... It was fun though.. We should do it again soon =)
Such a tiring day today. Woke up early today and helped out my friend in her school. She was having a little 'jamuan' for her students and the staff cos its her birthday today 24th July. At 11am, went to school to pick up the softball girls and played softball at stadium til 12.30pm. Hehe... the coach was funny... Kami pacah olehnya. He said 'butt up' when he actually meant 'bat up' cos he's filipino and thats just how he pronouned it. It was my turn to bat and he kept on saying to 'butt up' ..'butt up'.. and I was thinking like how do i do that. So, I started to shake my butt a bit and move my butt position higher then ms.ani and the girls started bursting out laughing and then i realised he was actually asking me to raised my bat higher. Haha... pacah! Couldn't stop laughing... Wish I had that recorded!
Anyway, Syee called and woke me up from my nap at 4pm. Syee and Agee came to my place and she proposed a project to be done in the near future and would like me to be a part of the project. It was a pretty good idea. Then I found out that my friend was hospitalised. I was like "What? on her birthday??" So I came to visit... and gosh she had those monitor by her bed and oxygen mask and her face was swollen. She had an allergic reaction to her transfusion. It was sad to see her like that but I'm glad shes fine.
Then I met my other friends at au lait. We had an in depth discussion on Syee's workshop project.

Interrupted by Zul the 'pegawai tarik kalat' with a classic walkie talkie in his vest's pocket. So, we discussed about the workshop and its confirmed to be held on 4th August at Sekolah Menengah Berakas. Oh, 4th August...I'll be starting UBD by then..
Happy birthday to Salwana! We planned a surprise just for her today cos she totally deserves it. It was awesome! Thanks to everyone for cooperating and the plan went smoothly. 
We got her two cakes. Black forest and chocolate ice cream cake. Nyums..!
That expression on her face shows it all.
Hehe... Giving her the present. So formal... =) It's movie night.. My friends and I were actually planning to watch 'Wanted' but unfortunately its no longer showing in cinemas. So, we picked 'Journey To The Centre of The Earth' instead starring Brendan Frasier. Here's the trailer...
The movie was supposed to be in 3D and I really think that it would be way better when we actually watched it in 3D but unfortunately we can't have that 3D movie experience yet in Brunei. The storyline overall was okay... I like the kind of movies where I learn new stuff from it and the actions was pretty good but there were some scenes that I didn't really like. It was also kind of predictable for some of the scenes. There was not much originality there. Basically old ideas gathered and twisted into a plot. It was fictional to my knowledge and the effects without the 3D experience made it just an okay movie to watch.
Hey guys, i came across this new product from Apple called Apple iDontcare.
It's from http://blaugh.com/2006/07/19/apple-idontcare/ A joke made for someone who has the case of 'i-envy'. Hehe...
Happy holiday to the people of Brunei!
I'm all smiles today... I had such a great day that I can't wait to blog about it.. Where do I start? Oh yea, I went to the hospital to take care of my aunt and I told myself before I got there that I was gonna get a good parking at most in 3 minutes and well, I got a really good parking in just a minute.. Then, when I got to see my aunt I found out that she was going to be transferred to the same ward as Ka Wana's. So, it was cool... Anyway, I was really excited for tonight cos my mentor booked the whole cinema for the group for the premier of 'Hancock' at Qlap. Farah and I had fun kidnapping Ka Wana from the ward just to bring her to see the movie. We had our ways but yea we got ourselves to QLap. The area was really busy so parking was a little difficult but we got a good parking anyway. Then, as I was about to go in, I met up with an old friend of mine and a former teacher of mine. I had a good chat with them and the best thing is that she invited me to come and join the school's cca softball group... just for fun. Ok, so movie started at 9.30pm and the cinema was filled but the movie was awesome! Oh, Adi also came for the movie even though he came really late but it's good to see him after such a long time. Then, after movie ends, Farah and I had to rush back to hospital to send Ka Wana back. Back at the ward, I had a good long chat about everything with my mentor and finally at about 2am I was a bit tired so I went home. On the way home just now, I couldn't help but just smile along the way, thinking how great my day is today and I just feel so happy... Ok, happily signing off now =)
Oh, here are the pictures when we watched Hancock.. but I'm only gonna post two =)
Haha... I found this strip when I was randomly surfing online. I think its really funny and it really does speak for itself. People just blog about anything nowadays ya know and not that I'm against people who blog just to have a blog or anything cos I myself before this blog have quite a few that I either stopped updating or well, honestly I'm not much of a blogger anyway... I prefer having a website and updating it but I still like to post stuff every now and then so I just thought to myself that I should really get a proper blog... Hehe..
