Memorable days~

22/12/2007

Found out i had a high fever when i woke up. Took lots of medicine and almost slept for the whole day. At night, i went to Vanessa's house for a B-B-Q party.It was fun. However, half the time i was there, i could hardly enjoy myself because i had a splitting headache, back and leg pains and i felt a bit dazed. Vanessa's mum even gave me medicine. Slowly, my fever went down and i managed to be more active. I played monopoly, card games, etc. Well, it's hard to describe the whole night since i had a headache so i'll end it here. Ps. We went home at almost 2am!

23/12/2007

Esmond and lil sis, Vivien(13) picked me and my older sister from home. We went to Coffee Zone to eat lunch. Then, Vivien and me were dumped at Batu Bersurat to watch basketball matches. First, i saw CHMS students playing. After ITB's match which was the worst basketball match i had ever seen because ITB's players looked like they were playing without any spirit or passion for the sport.Their shooting skills were bad. They had no strategy. They hardly even ran in the game. The score was approximately 140 to 7. Then, it was the match i had been waiting for, Vivien's team versus Effie and her friends. This match was amazing. The speed , skills, EVERYTHING! It's one those exciting games. In the end, two people were injured from Vivien's team and one of them squeezed my leg really hard! Vivien's team lost but their effort was not in vain. They went home after their match so i went to talk to Effie. We didn't get to talk long as she had to go home with her parents. At least she was funny when i talked to her..hahaha..Then, i went home later..

Great times~

A shocking surprise!

I woke up at 10:40am, went to bath, then i prayed to my dad before leaving the house. In the midst of praying, i received a phone call from my classmate Aimi. To my astonishment, she told me PMB results came out today! She told me my results over the phone. I wrote it down and was very disappointed. However, my mum was even more disappointed.

I left home with my oldest sister(27) to eat lunch with my 3 brothers. After lunch, i arrived at Utama Bowling to attend Sherly's birthday at 2pm. Sherly didn't arrive yet so i sat with Raihana and Qil first. When sherly arrived, we gave her the presents we bought. I gave her something from Hong Kong Disneyland and a birthday card with a drawing =)

Sherly, ShaSha(sherly's younger sis), Rai, Nabilah, Qil and me played bowling. Then, Nabilah distributed cool rubber bracelets to us. We also ate Jollibee food in the middle of our bowling game. I scored highest(72)! Yay! I then treated Sherly and the gang to some karaoke singing upstairs. They had a blast! Singing songs like Run it by Chris Brown, You're Beautiful by James Blunt, Beep by Pussycat dolls, etc. We took a photo together before Rai, Nab and Qil went home altogether.

Whereas i had to stay and wait for my mum because she had to send my 2 little brothers swimming. So, i accompanied Sherly and her sisters downstairs to the bowling area where they waited for their parents. After she left, i went back upstairs and ate dinner which was where my mum came in. The rest is history..

Family Gathering

Last night, we went to a family gathering at Seri Kamayan Restaurant. Seems that my mum invited Vanessa and her family too. She felt a bit uneasy but at least she wasn't alone. So, i sat in between her and my cousin. She told me funny things and we had a great laugh especially when my cousin accidentally spilled a bit of her soup on her pants. I knew it was evil to laugh but i couldn't help myself. There was even a flab contest between my little brothers which was so horrifying that my cousin, Tracey was terrified. That was hilarious!

Vanessa and her family were our family for today.I asked Vanessa if i could see or examine her phone since my cousin, Melissa borrowed mine. I looked through her pictures with her permission of course. It was funny, there were pictures that she did not want me to see so i let her push the up button until it was O.K. to look. I even managed to get 2 pictures from her phone using blue-tooth. It was from the 9th of November when we went to the mall and stayed at Vanessa's house.

After eating, my cousins' thought we should go bowling. Vanessa went to use the toilet so i waited for her. We went downstairs straight away only to find there was a bowling competition going on. So, we went back up and found my cousins upstairs. We went back to our seats to talk till 1 of my cousins' family had to go home.

We then walked out to watch bowling and to disturb my little brother and my little cousin, Ryan. Then, we talked again. This may sound boring to you bloggers out there but i find it fun! =p My brother even told us an interesting story about when he broke his arm. He told us a stupid thing happened at the hospital, he needed three people to tell him his arm was broken and that he was asked to sign when his writing arm was broken. I mean really! How dumb is that! Lolz...It was such an amazing story about some people in Brunei. This shows you can learn about medical knowledge but you can't buy common sense.

We played a fishing game with a plastic fishing rod and plastic fish. Surprisingly, Samantha wouldn't even touch the fish. At almost 11pm( i think), Vanessa and her parents had to go home. Before leaving, i gave Vanessa my pen-drive so her mum could transfer some more Hong Kong pictures to me. We waved while they walked down the stairs. We grabbed our belongings then went down. We saw Vanessa and her family again and waved goodbye again.So, i guess we would be meeting pretty soon again since i need to get those pictures =)

Back to boredom~



On the 8th, i went to eat at coffee bean with my eldest sister and 3 brothers. After that, i went to Kiulap Mall to watch "The Golden Compass" with them. It is an exciting movie! My mum only managed to pick us up at 6pm+ though. Eventhough we finished at 5pm. So to pass the time, we went to the arcade to play some games. Then, when my mum picked us up, we went to Pusat Belia so my brothers could swim but it was closed so we drove to Seri Kamayan Restaurant(famliy business) to eat dinner.




My mum ordered one of the workers to drive my brothers home and ordered some food to go for Vanessa's family. At Vanessa's house, the gate was opened after we arrived. Inside, the little sister, Samantha was excited again. I was asked by Vanessa's dad to give him a pendrive so that i could choose the pictures from the Hong Kong trip. He then asked Vanessa to help me. Looking through the pictures, we had our share of laughs especially because of (laugh)Delbert's Sumo picture..


After looking at and choosing multiple memorable pictures, we sat down on the couch and i waited for my mum to finish talking. I asked Vanessa " Shouldn't i be going now?"


She replied " Do u have to?"


Well..in my mind of course i didn't want to go. I mean she's like a best friend to me and i really would rather stay with friends than doing chores at home..haha..I gave her a pin and i kept the other while we were in Hong Kong. It looks like this..


So i went home and fell to bed..The end..

An unforgettable experience! =)

I went to Vanessa's house to sleepover on 1st December. We had supper then we talked and talked and talked till about 2am i think.

In the morning(2nd Dec), we woke up quite early for some reason(around 6:30am)..I guess we were too excited about the trip to Hong Kong! We had home-made cream of mushroom soup! Yum~! Then we watched TV for shows like Grey's Anatomy and Two and a Half Men. When Van's mum came down at 8am, she was so shocked to see us up so early..haha..Rachel Sim called me and Van and me had a long talk with her.It was nice of her to call before we left for HK.At 11am+, Vanessa's uncle, auntie and step cousin arrived.The step cousin was called Delbert which Vanessa likes to call him Del-bra...haha...He was a nice twelve year old kid who is quite mature like Vanessa =p

We left to go to the airport at 12pm and went inside the plane at 1:40pm after eating at the airport restaurant where i met another friend called Shin Yi. On the plane, there was a fight between Van and her sis cuz the lil' sis wanted to sit next to me. Luckily i still got to sit with both of them. When i wanted to use the toilet, I opened the door and saw a lil' boy squating there. I was telling Vanessa why didn't he lock the door!! We laughed like crazy! I met Shin Yi again at the Hong Kong Airport. From there we used a taxi to go to Guang Dong Hotel. Our rooms were tiny. So was the TV. The bed was hard and stiff but we still managed to fall asleep comfortably. I shared a room with Vanessa while her parents shared a room with her lil' sister.

We went to eat pork during the whole trip. It was delish! We even had turkey. The next day(3rd), we went out of Guang Dong Hotel to Ocean Park. We had loads of fun especially on the Mine Train(roller coaster)! We also went to the Eagle, Dolphin Show, the ship, Flying Swing, ate ice cream and the Ferris Wheel which moved slowly but Samantha(lil' sis) was afraid of heights. I wanted to go to the Abyss and the Dragon. However, the line was too long and we did not have much time. The Abyss is a cool ride where you can go high up and down really fast..a thrilling ride! The dragon was a roller coaster that will go upside down in loops! On the ship which didn't sound so scary but was actually fun and a bit heart dropping, Vanessa actually told me i was brave! I asked her why? She replied saying that it was because i wanted to try everything despite how scary the ride is. I was surprised yet felt flattered..haha.. =p We also went on a water log ride where we got wet!

We left Ocean Park at their closing time. We checked out of the hotel on the 4th. We ate a restaurant where i found(technically Vanessa spotted it) a bee in my food. It was fried. That was weird and unforgettable. The thought of it still makes my stomach churn. Yuck~ We even went on a tram which is kinda like a train but it can only go forward and backwards. There was a huge arcade, many shops and a sky terrace which was absolutely mind boggling. The sight of the city was amazing! We took a lot of pictures. After the wonderous sight, we went to meet wax figures of famous people such as Jackie Chan, Naomi Campbell and my favourite Yao Ming(Basketball icon)! There were many more and there was even a model runway which Vanessa's mum and lil' sis went on.

We checked into Hollywood Hotel on the 4th(i think). In Hong Kong Disneyland, we went to see giant christmas trees. There were four parts of the resort. It was divided into Fantasy land, Tomorrow land, Adventure land and Main Street U.S.A. We went on all the rides in Fantasy land first which includes the Merry Go Round, Mad Hatter's tea cups , etc. We bacame really dizzy in the tea cups because of four peoples' fast moving hands. The funny thing was when Delbert tripped. The three of us were like a great teenage trio. We would high five each other, laugh at lame jokes and just be with each other as if we knew each other for a lifetime. We also saw a 3D movie which was so realistic we even felt water splash onto us. Wind even blew towards us! I was freezing after that. We then watched the Golden Mickeys. Tarzan was a really hot guy because of the six packs(abs) . I mean even Van and her mum admits it..haha..

At night close to closing time, we took pictures like crazy after the amazing fireworks display! There was even fake snow which was more like soap. Oh! I almost forgot! The different types of transportation we used were a double decker bus, a normal bus, MRT, a tram and a taxi. We went to bed late at night again. The next morning(5th), we went to Disneyland again. However, this time we went everywhere. The most memorable one was Space Mountain in Tomorrow land which was a dark indoor rollercoaster with 3D effects. It was fun! We would fling our arms up in the air. It was hilarious! Our screams were actually able to be turned to laughter. We told Van and Delbert's parents what a fun ride it was but they didn't like it at all. We took pictures with Buzz Lightyear and all the disney princesses too!

We even went to Tarzan's tree house! We saw the Lion King show and had a Sticth encounter. This was one of my favourites as it was so funny! There were even times when Samantha would follow me around with a huge smile which was a bit creepy~ haha... Back on the way to the Hollywood Hotel by bus, we had loads of laughs and Delbert even came up with a rap for Van's sis. It goes like this "Hey ! My name is Sam! And I like to jam with the Ham!" We savoured the last moments in HK Disneyland as we may never breathe this air again~ Slept super late and got up later than usual.We only got up at 9am+..almost 10am i think..

On the 6th...

We checked out before 12pm and went to the other Disneyland hotel which was more grand and expensive! It was so cool with an indoor and outdoor pool, SPA, gym and a maze. After viewing all that, we went to see their playground where i bonked my head while leaving the slide!..ahaha...for some reason i bonked my head a lot that day! I even bonked my head in the aeroplane. I really miss HK now. The weather and the fun~ *sigh* Everything went by so fast!!! So boring being back in Brunei~ The boring, quiet and non-exciting country. I know~ I'm dissing my own country but i find it quite true =(

Now, today, i just hope to see them again soon especially Rachel(Sim) and Vanessa!
