Catching up

ssuppppp

it's the start of the weekend and my body finally decided to shut down.

but I refuses to be sick!

and now I'm with a blocked nose with awesome occasional coughs.



Now,

I finally push myself into renewing my passport this afternoon.
I've been putting it off since it expires in March becoz I have procrastination issues: the anxiety of settling any official documents eg. car insurance and road tax, driving license, travel document aka passport, etc. anything to do with these things, I some what procrastinate more than I do with other things in my life.
NO.
I don't have anything to hide from the authority coz seriously we can't really hide things but I don't know. I just do.
they make me nervous. eventhough I have don't nothing wrong. HAHAHAH ヾ(●⌒∇⌒●)ノ
there had to be an explanation to this anxiety coz I believe I'm not the only one with it.

anyway,
that's done.

After lunch
I went and antar kain for baju hari raya.
yes, it's that time of the year again.
and no, it's not too early for us girls. it's actually quite late.
at first I went to this famous tailor in town coz i wanted a certain design done for my baju and I thought they'll do an amazing job at it but not even five minutes in that shop and I was out.
1. the one attending me was soo 'ummm' every time I asked 'How much would that cost?' I don't know if it's my job experience but that constant umm-ness does not portray confidence and made me think that you're just want to charge me randomly.
2. it's wayyyy too expensive! I understand that the tailor attends to the royal family and I understand she has a reputation to uphold or something. but I just find it not worth it. Ok, fine. maybe its just because I'm not fucking rich and I cant afford that bloody tailor

So, I ended up going to our (me, my mom's and sister's) old tailor.
I know, why would I wana go to a new tailor for a certain design and not trust my old-came-out-with-exceed-expactation-result tailor? I guess I wanted something new. (I did this a couple of years ago with another different tailor and I ended up going back to the old tailor the next year. LOL. someone didn't learn any lesson!)
and what do you know. I didn't get to do one of the skirt design (becoz my kain not enough width) but I got the other 3. so that's better than nothing. AND! they cost about CHEAP! I sent 5 kain total. so pretty good bargain. the most cheap one cost $31 the most expensive is $50. the earlier shop about to charge me $70 for one design and atu pun balum include lapis inside. my goodness.
alright alright. I'm being bitter coz I'm not rich and I should have known better that I could not afford to send baju to that shop. hahah I just thought I tried. ٩◔‿◔۶
ah well.. i should just stick with the old tailor. they are accustomed to my needs anyway.

so, thats two of the things that needed to be crossed of the list of things to do done.
Ringan sikit bahu and my anxiety lessen.
hahaha I know, I'm such a nerve wreck. (〃^∇^)ノ


Hows your weekend so far?
I hope you're having it far better off than mine.

I'm gonna go and continue to watch Criminal Minds season 8 episode 16.

ciao~

Late Post

LOVE is such a big word.

and I'm having such a hard time trying to understand it.

Well, Nicky Byrne did teach me about family love; that you would jump in front of a bullet for them. 
or something like that.

anyway,
here comes my late post.


No.1

I made a 'handmade' phone case for my sister on her birthday last Feb.



















I don't have any 'SHINee color' paint, so I make do of what i have. and thats how it turned out.


and a lot tougher to make than it looks.



















but I'm happy on how it turned out.


No.2

I spent money on shoes! last January. at Zalora.
and a bag.


don't sweat. they're very cheap!


No.3

I was so hungry one night that I cooked some maggi ayam
and added up a lot of things in it;
real sayur, fish ball, meat ball,


it tasted delicious!!
I made them a few times more after that and then I ran out of sayur.
and the end.

hahaha


No.4

I bought this last year and received it this year.


I wore this during Geng Keras outing
and
only realized how FAT i looked in it when I review the pictures taken.
So, not sharing my picture wearing it.

I am Back. Part 3

a/n: I promised that this post is not as long as the previous one. xD but it is still considered long so brace yourself! (again)

. . .

So, our apartment.

I don't know how much it cost the committee but it was a good place to stay.

I was very please with the utilities provided inside the room. we were worried not being able to cook our instant noodles properly but as we when inside, we really worry for nothing.





We didn't get to use the cooking utensils, coz we scared they had been used with pork (as you know, muslim can't eat pork thus cn't use the same utensil that had been used with pork either).






Lucky we brought our own spoon/fork/bowl. xD

We only fully utilized the microwave and the water boiler. even the fridge kami inda on. coz we were not sure what to put inside it.

we didn't get to work the TV/Cable on our first night. but after much try from our sucky Tagaytay trip, we finally made a break through. LOL and watched the Last Samurai (or the Last Samurai watched us sleep hahaha).

my supervisor is ever so cheeky. Lucky my face is covered! She took this On Friday. this was posted in our Unit Whatapps chat at 5:54am. you see how the light outside so bright?

I only found out that in the Philippines, the sun is up so early. like at 5:30am, it was like 6:30am-7am in Brunei. On Friday, 14th, my super woke up around 5:30 and couldn't go back to sleep.
On Saturday, 15th, we both woke up at 6:30am and was bored. LOL

I was never an early raiser during vacation but i think the fact that the curtains weren't the 'block out the light' kinda curtain made us woke up early.

Saturday, 15th of the 'Getaway', we were given a breakfast, 7am-11am. me and super went up to 64th floor at around 8am and was greeted by the sight of the 'touring agent' preparing slides, projector, and speaker with some Azure banner standing on the sides. I voiced out my thought to my super "don't tell me durang kan bagi briefing untuk jual durang punya property" to which my super said, "eh inda kan" and we both decided to quickly finished the breakfast and left. which we did. this is what we called 'ada udang disebalik batu'; bagi kami breakfast free but we had to listen to them trying to 'sell' their property.
once again, ani vacation kh, business kh?
When we got back from the trip, I found out people got stuck and had to listened to the briefing for half an hour.
tsk.

So, by 9am we prepared in our room for our shopping trip; SM Megamall and Greenhills Shopping Centre.

SM Megamall is the typical shopping mall with lots of branded brand. I was mostly excited when I see a bookstore (or two) hahaha.



I only shopped at SM Store for bags. coz I was saving my money to shop at the supposedly cheap bargain at Greenhills. hehe
and Shopped I did. but again, not as extravagant as my super. LOL





this place had two tingkats, the ground floor was mostly baju, bags, and some dried fruit stall while the second floor was all phone cases and other gadgets.

Jewelries Stall (Not mine)
Bags Stall (Not mine)
Clothing Stalls (Not mine)
the second floor full of Phone Casing Stalls and other gadgets like phone, power banks etc (Not mine)

Of course, my only regret was not finishing all my Pesos at Greenhills; I should have bought at least 5 more phone cases, 10 more baju, and at least a Bag. hahaha
I only bought 1 phone case, 7 baju and no bags.

Oh I found the EOS lipbalm I've been wanting to buy on ebay. this one is mint flavor.



but when I open it in Brunei, it smells funny and I don't dare putting them on my lips. :S and it expires next year in September. 0_o ciplak tah jua banar.
I guess, now i had to buy the original from ebay. probably safer.


We got back to the apartment at around 8pm. we did go jalan for awhile to Century City Mall which is the smallest of Mall i've ever been into and it's the nearest mall to our apartment. After that we went back to the apartment and explore the 4th floor.

there's a video game room, snooker room, (where I took picture with the famous phonebooth) Movie room and a library.

We were told when we arrived on the night of 13th Aug that we were allowed to use the 4th floor amenities. Like, when did you ever spend all your time in the hotel amenities during a 3 days vacation? for me, NEVER. but it was cute of them to think that Bruneians actually will spend their time in those amenities room. Most Bruneians ideas of a vacation is shopping! and there are also some like me who preferred spending all day in a theme park. hahah never had I actually stayed in a hotel other than during night time to sleep. hahaha


. . .

with posts this long, I don't think it'd be wise to continue to post with the August Challenges.

(▰˘◡˘▰)

maybe after lah ah..

eBay again

I've been following a certain fan account on Instagram and they are selling Harry Potter merchandises.

My heart is set into buying the wand(s) keychain for at least a month now.
but I've been contemplating too much.

Until, one day, my brain calls out to browse those things on eBay.

Like, 

haaaaaaa~  *with lights shown down on ebay*




bought three Wand-keychains for less than BND10

puas ati ku! hahaha

the ones on IG was at least USD10 each which, right now equals to around BND13.80

how awesome the deal is on eBay!

I guess I refuse to believe that those things only being sold on IG with that price. KEKEKEKE

I'm just glad I didn't buy them from IG seller. xD

this is happiness.
