Finally found someone to play squash with me. But no car. great. it can’t get any worse den this. if u want to find me.. i’ll be in my room.Wasting what is left of my holidays in brunei, sleeping and playing sims.

saying good bye to my sweating-out-like-a-pig-playing-squash holiday.

I’ll post when everything is slightly better again. or. when i finally have a car. or. or when i’m finally back in melbourne.

Shopping in Brunei

That’s what THEY’ve been saying about me lately. Bukan sombong huhuhuh shy~~> (wah lawa jua ah be arrow ah!) sama takut kana bully saja huhuhu i’ll catch up with u boys when Bonita’s in town. Payah bah urang pemalu anie.

You know what? spent the whole afternoon yesterday trying to figure out what i HAD to do. I kept on looking at the date on the right hand corner of my monitor and went ; Ish what do i have to do today kan? macam ada something bah. Skali the moment i opened my eyes this morning baru te click that that i have to pick up my baju kurong from Nelson. bloody hell. Buleh ku lupa? The wedding is tommorow. It’s just plain baju kurong plang, not that big on embroideries and what not but i was thinking of adding crystals to it using cheap labour i.e; amah amitku .It’s too late sudah. Uwa. I never know what bajukurong feshen to putong even the other day when i went with bon i had trouble deciding where the zip on my skirt should go. I’m just THAT bad. The only time ive ever went to a tailor bymyself was during Hjh Rina’s wedding and this is my 2nd time. I hate it. I’m trying Nelson out cause Gypsy didnt really do a good job with my last baju kurong. Just when i thought i have found the tailor of my dreams. Selaloo.

Last nite Ghah took me out to pizza hut to catch up with Martina and the boyfriend. I found this pair of wedges that i really really like to have from charles and keith, i may not be able to walk in it but i WILL TRY. Shopping in brunei is like going for a treasure hunt. There are nice things out there but that you really really have to look for lah.

The jewellery stall just outside Charles and Keith is AMAZING. They were selling faux pearls from korea. They’ve got them in the shape of earrings,necklaces and rings. I loved the earrings and rings that i saw. The prices aren’t too bad if you’re okay with them jacking up the prices sky high. The earrings that i wanted was apparently 70 bucks before discount and now it has been “marked down” to $35. Hello? They must’ve bought them for a cheaper price to still be able to make a profit ouf of the $35 kan ? Well business is business so i’d buy it for $30. next time lah next time. Alternatively, you can go to Pasar Malam Gadong where they also have pearls on sale for $3 bucks each or two for $5 – fresh waters ones. so its cheaper. It’s not as heavy duty and aren’t as nice but hey for $3 bucks that’d do. *shows off her pasar malam earrings* no one would know they were only $3.

Le Orient, Kiulap Area just above vintage rose. I don’t think i’ve ever bought anything from here. Yes its another one of those stores that like to tipu u blind with their prices. But i have to admit some of the stuff that they stock are really really lawa. But you have to know prices when you’re there exsp when it comes to jewellery. I almost got ripped off the other day when i wanted to buy a pair of chandelier earrings that were selling for $65. Yes. i’ve bought chandelier earrings for more than that before but they were of GOOD QUALITY. the ones that they were trying to sell me were like those flimsy ones ; Beads hung loosely on really cheap WIRE. And the salesgirl insisted that i t was $65 cause they were CHANDELIER EARRINGS. I dont care if you’re “MAM” insists that they were CHANDELIER EARRINGS. Chandelier my foot. huhuhu. But yeah , the place is still worth a look. Careful saja.

The other shop i want to tell you about is Rainforest Gallery just above Mamih in kiulap. Its owned by a friend of mine Denise who has got great taste in jewellery. It’s been opened for a while now but i only checked it out for the first time two week ago with Ghah and Maurina. I love the presentation. The shop sells artwork as well as contemporary jewellery. Prices range from $5 to $60 which is not too bad. The collection pun lawa lawa very eclectic nya orang and very very tasteful exsp the bangles , i think Ghah bought four bangles altogether sudah kali from there. huhuhu. impulse. impulse.

There’s one more jewellery stockist i want to share with you guys.. Bejewelled click here to access their multiply site. Yes, they don’t actually have a boutique but they sell their stuff online. The only bruneian online-store that ive ever heard of. How can i describe her collection ah.. very dainty.If you’re in to multi coloured beads and long, chandelier earrings bejewelled is the place to go also if ure very ayu like the owner lah huhuhu. But then, when i look at her pieces again, they’re not actually dainty..ok its a cross between dainty-ness and funky-ness lah.It depends how you want to accesorize it really. I love the rings from here.. i think she was the one who introduced me to big chunky rings back in the 90’s 🙂

currently loving this crown:-

annnd this:-

It’s a pendant. i can imagine layering it with more necklaces.

*sigh* kan shopping in brunei isn’t too bad if you know where to go. banyak lagi kadai. karang tah lagi. huhuhuhu. Ams runnings out of times, gotsa go pick up my baju. heh.

kiss me.

Aku berani. Ko? . Politiks Bini Bini. Siapa PAHAM?

I was just reading Izzah’s Post.

Zah. Jadinya kau berani? Ba Ilmu banar jua kau anie? huhuhuh.

This is what i think lah ah, we bitch in real life. Same thing applies to blogging. Nya urang who can feel the hot that hot is the one. Take goss magazines for example. Why goss when it’s slander?? Cause its HIGHLY ENTERTAINING. Even whenn they get SUED – hello? free publicity? kah kah kah.. Don’t tell me, kamu tarus tutup mata when A sindirs B under the samaran name “C” in a blog.

tutup mata wah?

EKSEN mu. kekekekeke ku liat hits ku naik 25% jua ariatu.

It’s not good pulang.. but i guess that’s how they ‘create awareness’ around here. The truth hurts jua bah (try reading He’s Just Not In to You a couple of times you’ll know what i mean..lol)
bini2 di brunei ani lagi penamparan. If u say face to face pun no use.. nanti u yang “kena face”. Membari ijab bah kan dibawa bakalayi, banyak bini bini gangsta di brunei ani nyamu. I’ve seen testimonials on friendster that goes;-

“Wah. Handal ko anie..inda ku sangka ko kan menampar ya ah!! SYABAS EH!!!!!! PADAN MUKA NYA YA KAN TUNJUK KUAT SANGAT AH”

This is from a girl to a another girl – with love. Banar. True Story! Its true that we are our own enemies. Example:-

– Girl A kisses boy. Boy leaves Girl A . This other Girl, Girl B, who is Girl’s A best friend kisses boy that left Girl A. Girl A VS Girl B ..lawan betampar.. kita lihat kesudahannya di FRIENDSTER i.e ; not to worry, we will know who wins on friendster!
– Girl from Phillipines work for Husband and Wife . Wife’s at work. Girl goes with Wife’s Husband. Girl ends up marrying Wife’s Husband.

dll. dll. dll.

I don’t know why we keep on doing this to ourselves.

Anyway, back to what i was saying.

Those who know me will know i am not the type to beat around the bush. I’ve sindir-ed people many times in my blog before solely because when i confront them,they are always indenial. Always blaming it on someone else…its neeeeverrr them..it’s always..”oh..i didn’t mean anything by that.” “yakan?, adakan? kau salah dangar kali” , “antah ah..lama sudah..inda ku ingat..” . Either that or they avoid confrontations like the plague ; “mm..aha aha..skajap ah..bekeriting ku dulu!”. And No there’s no fun in having someone lying to your face. So when these people FINALLY TERASA , its my turn to say “YAKAN?” “ADAKAN?” “KO SALAH BACA KALI? *cough*awukau*cough*” “ah anu ah.. um..be keriting ku dulu jua” . Hahaha. Fair Fair jua tu? Inda ja?

All i can say, yang terasa atu..heh.. SINDIR PLANG BALEKKK~~~

kiss me.

Huruf WOW.

Coffee is good. The high i get from caffeine comes and goes. That’s the effect i get anyway. One minute i’ll be all talkative and restless the next i’m quiet and strangely tired. Two minutes later ill be all nonsense again and then i’ll be all roadkill again.. and so on and so forth. I don’t quite get it. Right now i’m.. hmm..let me see..how am i feeling ah.. ok. roadkill. definitely roadkill. ngalehku.

Afternoon was spent with my long lost best friend in this whole wide world Bebbette. Went out for drinks at coffeezone (where i had the coffee, very nice. didn’t know they had caramel latte), got bored and moved to Funbread where we met up with Ghah for another round of drinks. That’s two days in a row ive seen her for drinks. Very excited that girl. Congrats on getting your first Pay Check..i’m sure there’s plenty of it to come kan?

Aku mau kerja ju eh. Dapat bali biskal warna peng. The transportation of my dreams. ada luncing lagi tu. sama hon. Dapat ku hon orang orang yang paloi paloi yang inda pandai makai round-about atu. I’ll have my basikal pimped ; extra loud lonceng and monster truck tyres. Wah. And people would go:-

Eh Si Sas.
Sas mana???
Si Sas bah yang namanya dulu Siti skali si Syaz ..skali ani si Sas tia..
Eh yang mana!?
Si Sas bah!! Sas luncing.

kah kah kah kah kah. Ra alip nun dal wow mim (*lol* WOW!)

oh i have yet to tell you guys how i got the name Sas. huhuhuhu. One of the little elves/amah kudnt pronounce my name properly. macam semua indon di dunia inda pandai menyabut SYAZ atu bah. there’s Nauli who calls me SASH. Anyway, Everytime my friends called the house and asks for me..my maid will be like “Oh. iyah iyah.. SASWANA jalan .. ” so yeah. that’s the story of my life.

How shit is the weather today? I was on my way to telanai this afternoon from Beribi and was shocked to find 3 simpangs under water the. I had to pusing and go the long way. The rain pun mcm my caffeine high pun. Hello, Bye bye. I just got a text from Nad58 (banyak bah Nadiah di brunei ani, i have like 7 different Nads stored in my phone!) “Syaz drinks at Matadoe tonite at 8”

Hmmm..menyuroh kah inda bapa ni ah..

confirm cemani nie krg cakapnya;-
Anak yang Solehah yang kan bejalan malam Jumat:- pa pa buleh siti jalan.
Bapa:=inda.
AYSYKBMJ:kenapa inda buleh.
Bapa:-inda kau meliat ujan di luar atu kah.

….. sigh. mana sims ku?

kiss me.

You’re telling me to avoid eating chicken wings?

Avoid eating chicken wings frequently – ladies especially a true
story…!A friend of mine recently had a growth in her womb and she underwent
an operation to remove the cyst. The cyst removed was filled with a dark
coloured blood. She thought that she would be recovered after the
surgery but she was terribly wrong.

A relapse occurred just a few months later. Distressed, she rushed
down to her gynecologist for a consultation. During her consultation, her
doctor asked her a question that puzzled her. He ask if she was a frequent consumer of chicken wings and she replied yes wondering as to how, he knew of her eating habits.You see, the truth is in this modern day and age; chickens are injected with steroids to accelerate their growth so that the needs of this society can be met.

This need is none other then the need for food. Chickens that are injected with steroids are usually given the shot at the neck or the wings. Therefore, it is in these places that the highest concentration of steroids exists. These steroids have terrifying effects on the body as
it accelerates growth.

It has an even more dangerous effect in the presence of female
hormones, this leads to women being more prone to the growth of a cyst
in the womb.Therefore, I advise the people out there to watch their diets and to
lower their frequency of consuming chicken wings!People, who receive this email, please forward it to your friends.

In other words, if you have a daughter that can’t stop eating chicken, send this email to her!. (Thanks Bu!)

What rubbish! Your gynecologist thinks too much!!! huhu.

Sending me this email is like asking a bear to guard a jar of honey. I refuse to boycott Ayamku.

Macam macam eh.


Awu. lurus tah tu “buatan katil” huhu.

kiss me.

Only Child, Where’s Maurine??

Playing:- Ecoutez – Simpan Saja

I’m still not over this song yet. Selalu saja kau dapat..membuatku~ maafkan. Salahmu.. u u u.. ciye. hahaha. Ok. Another boring wednesday. Nad as predicted kudnt make it for squash and Wangz didn’t reply to me messages. I’d play with Ren, but she injured herself playing squash a few weeks ago and her ankle has not recovered fully. This sucks to the bone. If only Kel was here. I hate this. I hate being an only child. hahaha Not exactly true pulang but yeah. There’s six of us altogether with 3 at school and the other 2 overseas i’m practically the ONLY CHILD at home..ok again, not exactly true. Because being 20 going on 21 doesn’t really count as a CHILD. But calling yourself the only ADULT doesn’t really appeal to people’s emotions.

Notice how i dont really have anything to post about? pasal brunei is so goddamn boring? Don’t get me wrong, i love coming home. It’s just that no one is around to take me anywhere!! I’d go for a pedicure but my pedicurist has recently got married and moved to the UK. I’m too scared to try out the new nail cutter (haha) at the saloon. I only trust MAURINE to do by nails..Maurine Maurine, why did you have to get married? The man you’re married to isn’t even handsome..ya ya ya ya but im sure she’ll throw in ‘baik hati’ & ‘kaya’ in her defense. Boo. Sigh. Im just gonna have to cut my toe nails myself..even if it means having crooked toe nails. 🙁

hmmm…….
chatting to a few people on msn. Currently craving for Mango chicken rice. i’d ask Sami to balikan but SAMI – “tara tau apa apa..mana itu kedai..semua dia tara tau..” suruh si Andy bali.. “Yes mam, i buy forrrr yew, bat i hep to wait forrr Sirrr’s call, laterrrr he call i’m not thereee, he Mara mara bah!” suruh si Anik membalikan ya nada be lesen.. sama ya sibok me mop mop jamban. KAN. KEOTAK BAH. KAN JADI ONLY CHILD PUN INDA PASS BAH NIE. hahahaaha. sighhhhhhhhhhhh..

buring ih!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

owh Faz, lagu Api Api canie..

Api Api tunjung ke laut,
batangnya batang katil,
laki laki andangnya gauk,
Bini bini kuat mengatil..

skalinya atu lah saja chorusnya yang ku tau yang lain inda ku tau huhuhu. lupa. sikit. huhu. Api Api ani nama urang kali? apa kan? huhuhu.

kiss me.

Red Nail Polish R US.

hee-hee. I love it.

I need to fix mine though. Pasal tekubak kubak sudah. Believe it or not, i still bite my fingers regardless if i have nail polish on or not. Terok eh. Cancer karang eh temakan cutex anie. huhuhuhu. dapat cancer kah!?!?

null

and Yes Sha, u can pull it off pun lah. You’re just not used to seeing it kali. That is why. huhuhuhu. Anyway, aku atu sebenarnya kan mempost pasal chigu melayu si rahim..skalinya tapinya aku macam malas SO-dah bah. huhuhu.It’s been a LONGGGG DAY.

Went out with Nadz,Renz and Mauz . This time we went to portview. What happens if you put larry harry and a mutu tambang in the same room?? a very crazy mutu driver. haha apakan. its SOOO easy being cheeesy~~~ heh.

How can you all hate her??? she’s just oh so the very FUNNY. ish. How funny? try.. kalah-niniku funny.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RADHIAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Semoga Panjang Umur dan Murah Rezeki. Senyum Senyum lah selalu. huhuh. Happy bday babeeee. Cease the moment, ill see you on Sunday. Inshallah 🙂

kiss me.

Lunch with the man.

Today i met up with Ghah and OWNER OF RANOADIDAS.COM (that’s what it says at the back of his car lah..creative ranz. very creative) for Lunch at Sugar & Spice. Ani i just got back from jalan jalaning..with im-not-saying-who. 😛

it’s been a long day. In my attempt to find ways on how to entertain myself while my girlfriends are at WORK.. i have resorted to cheap thrills , like going for Rahim’s Parent-teacher conference. haha inda wah. parents, both kudnt make it. so they sent me..oh sugar.. gtg.

ill continue tommorow. kekeke.
kiss me.

Bintang kecil . i am bruneian.

YO.

LOL. That’s funny. starting today’s post with a YO but yet its ohhhh sooo bruneian. hahaha. Behapa kau nie YO? Kemana ko nie YO? eh YO..wasap ne YO. Yo.. mandi ko sudah ka yo? BALUM YO!! LOL. it comes in different voice tones lagi tu. I.e: BALUM YOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! LOL. I notice that i tend to use YO alot when im back home.. eh YO. hahaha. GAH! i can’t stop now. hahahaha. *Does Ghah’s Beruang laugh* (oh. i also owe someone publicity in here. remind me to do it later..) I think YO is this Era’s version of “JUL” , “Brader” and “Jek” kali (thank you wu-tang clan). Mom was telling me how they called everyone JUL back when she was still studying in the UK. And “Brader” is still being used by the older generation of men.. like the ones in BRUCLASS. kah kah kah. “rilek brader..” “jan catu brader..” .. Jek..im not sure. ok. rewind. i think MOm was telling me how they called everyone JUL and not JEK. but yeah.. cematulah. hehehe.

So anyway, nothing planned for today. Well, i initially wanted to play squash with Wang Ee. But.. ntah i slept late, didn’t feel like waking up early so we moved it to tommorow. Tawar jua wah atikukan main Squash lately. palui2 urang training di stadium atu. keotak. Honestly, my time here hasn’t been all that. Things were slightly better over summer. ani i find brunei to be just.. antah DULL. Maybe because everyone’s not around kali and plus my sisters arent coming back.. so i really dont have anyone to maen maen with. tsk.

Congragulations to the girl who won Bintang Kecil yesterday. “Good voice control , baju sangat cantik , tone sangat enak” well for a 12 year old. She was also last year’s juara.. atu baru ya “inda membari CHAN!” . Yes i am a fan of bintang kecil..as a child ive always wanted to enter. But my mother being a new mom, juggling work and 3 kids at the same time, really didn’t have time to send me back and forth for rehearsals kan. But yeah, i spent my time idolizing ERNI ANIZA, DK MONIRI ,MONA MARLINA and the MALIK FAISALS (ALL SEVEN OF THEM!!!) crazy. i know. There was this one time when i wanted the same shoes Erni wore for the finals (that could be bought at Yaohan!) hahaha..I wanted Mona Marlina’s lacey gloves.. huhu that also could be bought at Yaohan back in the day hahaha. From 1989-1996 i taped eveeeeery single Bintang kecil there were.It’s really sad how they stopped having “wajib songs” in the competition. Macam before, each and every contestant had to sing a traditional malay lagu before contiuniing with their main song. Gila apal ku kali ah lagu2 melayu anie hahaha..Ambuk di tunjang, Api Api, Kulimpapat..Gol Gol Nang..YOU NAME it. i know it. hahaha. I dont know why they stopped it though, it was too time consuming kali if every contestants were to sing two songs each.. time is money kali ah buleh. But it’s really saddd.. kesian adi adiku inda tia menahu lagu brunei asli anie.. huhu tau durang lagu SPIDER saja.. ALADDIN. hahaha. When my brother Rahim entered the competition 2 years ago, he made it in to the finals without even knowing the theme song to the competition. He lip synched his way through, “BINTANG KECIL, DI LANGIT YANG BIRU..” and got away with it. hahaha. caya ku anak atu. BOOO!! But yeah they should re-introduce lagu lagu wajib in to the program. Brunei used to produce good quality tv shows wah (sayang di sayang, murai, doi ginisnya..) ..exsp children’s programs. No idea what happened there.

Ani now, lagu2 yang kana nyanyikan ani..lagu INDON saja. ilang tia authenticity urang kitani atu. eseh. hahahaha. krg lah ku tulis surat arah rtb..

dear rtb boss,
why song all indon song? please give brunei malay song. because its nice. thank you.

sincerely,
ERNI ANIZA #1 FAN.

anyway,
i wants tos mandis nows.

kiss me.
