New Post for year 2010

Lol my turn for my first 2010 post. I can honestly say this blog has been neglected...quite badly. haha, thanks to the lazy blog-owners:P

Anyway, let's see.. my 2009 was a rollercoaster ride. A very crazy one, in fact, with so many bumps along the way. sigh. Basically 2009 wasn't a really good year for me. So much shit happened that I've never ever experienced in my entire lifetime. So many complicated situations, that I have lost count on how many there were. I'ts not that everyday is a bad day, there are good days as well. But it's more like there's too many bad days in the year for me to handle. Anyway, I hope to put the past behind. Please, 2010, be a better year.

So, after yearning for months and months to return back to Brunei, I'm finally back in Brunei. Technically, I'm supposed to be back long ago, but was in KL during December and made a trip in between to Bangkok. While in KL, we had a few objectives. To get Amanda's braces fixed asap, shop, and eat! The braces were fixed on Amanda n Rachel.. and as for shopping.. omg, we went almost every other day, I actually felt it was like a job. Job was to shop. The problem why we had to go so many times, is because of either 1) we were really picky, coz we can't seem to buy much. Like I could spend a whole day in a shopping mall, and only buy 1 thing, or 2) the things in KL just don't appeal. I dunno which one is right, I tend to believe it's no. 2). But then again, I AM quite picky. Food, on the other hand, was satisfying. I actually completed my list of food-to-eat-in-KL. Ham dan crabs, sambal lala & sotong & stingray, lok-lok, curry laksa, yong tau foo n chee cheung fun, wat dan hor, KL hokkien mee, Char kuey teow, seafood stuff like balitong, clams(super fav), satay, rojak, kuey chap, oh jian, roti boy, mamak food, ban mee, claypot chicken, sago honeydew, etc etc. Oh and we tried this place, Pasta Zanmai, which serves fusion Jap and Italian food(Y) Yumm.. talking about them makes my mouth water. Yay, going for second round again, coz I'll be back to KL for CNY, for two weeks in Feb. I really wanna go for the buffet meals, heard there's a lot of them that are real good and serves a really wide variety of food.

Bangkok was fun, touring the city was a good cultural experience. There were times that we had language barrier. Like we were asking the salespeople about the things we gonna buy and they didn't understand a single bit. But an odd fact that I've discovered is that a lot of Thai ppl can actually speak Mandarin. Pretty amazing to me. Like maybe out of 10 Thais we meet, about 5 could actually converse in Mandarin. Shopping was great! I am still so regretful for not buying some skirts and pants, I was overwhelmed with choices and was being indecisive. Eventually, we ran out of time, and we had to leave. grrrr.

Now that I'm back in Brunei, I realise all I do is run errands for the family. Top of the list is sending sisters here and there -_-". But it's not like I'm so busy anyway. I'm too free..hehehe. I seriously have to think of some things to do. I just wake up, eat, run errands, eat, sleep. Need to exerciseee.. I keep on gaining weight:S

Ahh.. I'm so relieved, my dad bought my mom a car... now I can use her old car freely without having to wait for her to come home from work or anywhere. yay:)

I went on a crazy spring cleaning spree yesterday for the whole afternoon till night. Threw out SO much stuff. Most were old magazines from like year 2001/2/3, college/uni application booklets, very unuseful documents, old projects from more than ten years ago(as in primary school projects), rusty jewelleries from donkey years ago, unwanted electronic gadgets and wires, useless softwares and half-spoiled things.....so MUCH crap. I managed to fill up one whole black garbage bag till I couldn't lift it, and magazines thrown separately, and two whole rubbish bins. Sheesh, they should have all been gone long ago. The cupboards, drawers and tables are so much clearer now from clutter and mess.

Talking about noob-ness, I was at Bandar today, coz I had a sudden roti kosong craving and I was at Jubilee to collect my mom's DVDs. So, I parked at the side of HSBC near the traffic lights. And after parking, I was like ahh.. nice, perfect parking, just a few steps away from restaurant. And when I got back into the car, I saw this white paper stuck on the car. It's a paper saying I have done a "kesalahan" somewhere. And when I read it was something like, "parking tanpa koupon". So, I went SHIT! Coz it somehow looked like Shenny's accident form, the format and all. And I was so freaked out..hahah I called Shen.. but no answer(shenny was in class:P) I was like crap, I'll make mummy go to court coz of this. Then I started looking for one of those parking stalls where u pay ur parking fee. And there it was, just behind the car. Rushed down the car and asked how to settle that paper. And when the lady said, "tak apa ni, bayar 50 sen saja", I went "phewww!" in my heart. So cheap some more..hehee. So ya.. but anyway, it's not my fault. Totally didn't know that coupon thing existed in Bandar...apparently it was there long ago, around a year back.

After the whole parking fine incident, I went on the highway to Jerudong to buy prawns. LOL. very random. I was also trying to familiarise myself with the highway, haven't driven on it before, though I've been driven on that road countless times. And buy prawns, to try cooking buttermilk prawns. Hope it would come out successful, fingers crossed. Love that dish:P I always order it in restaurants.

Piano talk: I so want to play a full piece, but I'm so lazy whenever I can't continue playing the rest of the piece. As in when I learn the start, I'm ok, but when there comes a part where I can't continue playing, I just stop. I don't strive on. tsk tsk. Then, I move on to another piece. And this happens to all the other pieces. So, I now only know how to play the beginning of a good number of pieces, but never the full thing of each of the piece. GRRrr. I should be more determined to at least finish 1 or 2 OR 3 FULL pieces. I'm so lazy blergh

Okay, time for sleep now.

wow!

seemed like a super duper long time since i blogged. Just realised my last post was made last year, which means this post would be my first post of the year 2010. ok, since this post is the first post of this year, i'd like to wish everyone and this bloggie, a very Happy New Year 2010. well, 2009 has passed, and to say the truth, year 2009 was not that bad for me; minus those few bad daysss i had. now that i tried to recall back, year 2009 was quite a good year.

so referring to my last post. sighs~ i got supplementary for my maths. my other results were quite good, and i was very satisfied with the results. really. but i just dont know what happened to my maths, and i just took the supp two days ago. it was bad. but i still hope my teacher would give me a pass, if not, i really dont know what else i can do in ubd already. gahhh! Praying hard now!

dang, whenever i think about my supp and all, i'd have no mood at all to do anything, so i guess i'l end this post here. sorry peeps if this post sound a bit... doinks. yea, doinks. im still with my 'doinks' around.

so, till the next post. hope it'd be a good news.. cheers! :D
