meeting up with Clare and making a trip down to Lula Rock! i can’t wait. Off in lieu on Monday! finally!! a much needed break!!! :S its been what 5 months since my last off-in-lieu?? i cnt wait for me to able to take my cutiz. i want to jalan jalan with Kelly. it’s been too long.
I asked the cleaners here at the hotel what they get paid every month and they told me that they only receive about 50-80 USD. $80 bucks for hard work isn’t much. that’s not even equivalent to what maids get in Brunei. She then told me that she had to fork out USD$200 every 3 months to pay for her daughter’s education..that only leaves her USD$40 to spend on life’s necessities :S
80 bucks man.
80.
eight jiro.
if i only had 20 dollars to spend every month..i’ll probably only get to eat KFC on my birthday.
hence why i don’t see fat people crowding the streets here. i’m probably the fattest one here.
arghhhhhh im up early. i tot id be able to take advantage of the fact that Cambodia’s an hour behind from Brunei time. I was gonna sleep in. but no. these eyes opened at 6:30AM. on.the.dot. blah. I think i’ll catch up with my reading.
oh. did you know that the name SiemReap ( the city where ANgkor Wat is) actually means ‘The Thais Lost?’ . hhahaha. awesome kan? baik jua inda Siem Reap S.I.
It’s one of those Mondays when your alarm didn’t go off sending you scrambling out the front door. The traffic on the way to the office didn’t help either. WTF are they thinking constructing roads at this hour. This is what i don’t GET about the country. WHY? malam nada kah? weekend nada kah? nda kamu kan tebayar org org kamu ani over time kah? biar tia seluruh brunei ani JAM kah? i seriously dont get it. on a MONDAY lagi tu.
anyway, got to work and for some reason the computer kept on rejecting my password to log on.
STUPID CAPS LOCK. WHY R U EVEN THERE???/
like seriously..what’s a caps lock for?
shift+desiredkeyuwanttomakecapital is the way to go.
or..shift+ f.off.
btw, jangantah di ikut ni,. aku inda puasa 😛
urgh. kusut ku.
i dont know why but i felt the urge to blog again. why am i spending this precious time blogging? when i should be downing at least 5 bottles of mineral water before Sahur. I’ve only had a bottle today. gAH.
there’s just something about running that makes you feel almost invincible. i havent been feeling invincible for almost a month now. i have been running. but not as often as i used to. The heavy rains (which seem to have now subsided) may perhaps me one of the culprits.. oh and also a certain something called laziness. I am fast approaching the danger zone. if i keep this up..all the work that i’ve put in in the last 10 months would go to a waste. rubbish u know rubbish? go inside the rubbish u knoh? waste baskets u knoh?
eh u knoh. i tink tommorrow i better make it a point to go to the gym. tapi i tink aku boring sudah ke gym atu. tapi kan belusir diluar.. panas kali ah. mcm cacing kepanasan yang berpuasa…saja. hahaha if there is such a thing. lol. or MCKYB. for shortform. boring wah gym atu banyak members yang pit pit. huhu pit pit.
bagus eh. time abis ujan. start tia puasa.
kali i should terawikh mcm berabis kali.. siap pakai heart monitor. hahahaha. kalau balum sampai 168.. laju laju lagi. sampai pingsan.
anyway,
it was so good to wake up at 12pm tadi. i love long weekends. wish i kud sleep in tommorrow. but i baker’s got to do what a baker’s got to do..: boss around their maids at 6am.
