Thanks Mummy Daddy!!!

Tuesday, January 18, 2011
My parents and 2 youngest brothers went for a vacation to Kuala Lumpur and Kelantan, Malaysia last 5 January and came back last 10 Jan.

For a 'spoilt' daughter and sister like I am who is so close to both my parents and brothers, I missed them terribly especially when I was home alone.

Wished I could go with them but my work commitment made it quiet impossible and to buy an air ticket for a last minute flight is too expensive for a short stay hence I just stayed at home, taking care of the house, feeding the cats, birds and the turtles.

But the best thing being left behind from a family vacation was that I was spoilt from faraway! LOL! Every shopping trips they went to, my dad would call me up and asked what do I want? Honestly, I didn't ask for anything but somehow I ended with lots of stuffs all courtesy from my parents =)

Then last Wednesday, me, my parents and brother Faiz went to Miri. It was an unplanned trip and Dad didn't really wanted to go but by much persuasion by me, at last Dad gave in and we went to Miri around noon! Let's just say that it was a 'payback' trip for me from my parents ;)

And don't ask me on what did I spent in Miri! It was unimaginable, I think.. LOL!
But I managed to replenish my craving for Starbucks' Java Chip!!!

I know!!
Bruneians are so sad!
We have to go all the way to Miri to have a Starbucks!
Why don't we have Starbucks in Brunei, anyway??
*hmmmmm*

But overall, trillions thanks to both my Mummy and Daddy for 'granting' the wishes of this spoil daughter of yours!!
Loving you both endlessly ^_^

Off to.... Miri

Sunday, June 13, 2010
Last Friday, a day just before I reported back to duty, me and my family went for a road trip to another neighboring country, Miri.

We saw lots of Bruneian buses with the Bruneian passengers also going to Miri. Must be the school holidays. And you must be wondering what Bruneians do in Miri? I don't know about others but for me it would be the shopping, the foods and window-shopping (which eventually come back to shopping.. LOL!)


First, they turning to the right....


The 'pilot' and the 'co-pilot' aka Dad and Mum


Then, they turning to the left....


Now, they are wide awake!




*nyum*nyum*

Off to....LA

Monday, June 7, 2010
No... I didn't go to LA as in Los Angeles - couldn't afford to go there.. not yet anyway ;)

Today, me and my BFF along with our colleague and her 3 children went for a day trip to the neigbouring country, Labuan. It's an island actually just off Brunei and Kota Kinabalu and it belongs to Malaysia.

Went there aboard Seri Anna (the vessel/ship - whatever you want to call it) and the journey takes 1 hour 40 minutes one way.

Here are some pictures from today's trip...

It was my second trip to Labuan and I gotta say nothing much has changed since December 2006. The trip was tiring and the weather was so hot and as my BFF said, it's the first time she sweat like a pig! LOL!

Nevertheless, it was a fun day out and grateful thanx to my BFF for the trip day ;)
