Funny story in Trafagal square

This incident happen on our second day in London, well i don't know if this is funny for everyone but if you are there with us sakit perut ketawa. hahaha.
Well... after Westminster where they have the Big Ben my sister told us that we should head of to this street where you can see more beautiful buildings and monuments. Truly enough it is, and the far end the trafagal square ( pic kat bawah tu). Trafagal square is like a big plaza where people use to hang out and its a part of the tourist attraction.
If you pernah main Monopoly one of the station is Trafagal square ( inilah tempat dia pulak). One of the main attraction in Trafagal square is this monument with 2 big Lion of both sides, and you can see all this tourist riding on it taking pictures.
So me, boboy and Diding pun climb up the monument ( Andy and Carlina tak nak... kenapa ya, maybe takut orrr.... heavy opssss ampun tuanku). When we were at the monument taking pictures my sister ask us to climb up the lion to take pictures but entah macam mana it seems so hard to climb up. Dahlah licin the lion is made of bronze and its cold ( taulah orang Mesia tak tahan sejukkan). Boboy try to climb up even after accesive pushing from the butt tapi tak naik naik jugak.
All of us start laughing and then finally took our pictures at the lions butt je.. Punyalah taulah dah senja-senja macam ni tulang berat kau... then out of the blue boboy manage to crqwl in front of the Lion and called from anyone to took his pictures but his mom was nowhere to be found because all of us gave our camera to her.... The boboy said... Eiiiii mana si mummy ni...
After that he merajuk again..........sekejap. This boy always merajuk one.



This is the only pictures we took with the lion and
positioned at its butt., A damn beautiful picture but you
didn't know the story behind it, but now u know.

REST IN PEACE (RIP)

Hafter we arrive in Heatrow London and str8 to Lewisham , where my sister resides, the next morning day was a big day to all of us because we got to see London for the first time. The rest of the gang was so sexcited to see the Big Ben ( sob sob ~ we finally arrive after 4 months of preparation).
The funny thing happen before we reach home late last night my nephew Boboy asked me if i want to visit the grave nearby to thier house. Mula tu pelik jugak kenapalah si Boboy ni ajak p grave yard but i did promise him so early the next morning we went to the nearby graveyard. GOTHIC Betul my nephew ni, with him and the sister black is the in thing and if you want to buy something for him make sure its black plus a skeleton.
Fuhhhhhhhh.. i bet some of the peps in Lewisham never been there as well, including Me sista and both her Brunein housemate .. kan Pai. Tapi the scenary was calming...beautiful and breathaking again. Tapi memang cantik with all the old trees and the beautiful grave. The trees and the grass are green and the chill makes you wonder.. mesti orang yang meninggal pun seronokkan.
This is around 9 am in the morning ( London time not Mesia)

What a beautiful sculpure.. not me lah the patung.

My Gothic nephew boboy.


Macam Winter sonata pulak kan.



My niece diding says , if i wear this baju, looks like Anuar Zain.,.. so sukalah pakai.

May all of you rest in peace.

LONDON LONDON LONDON Aka fergie

We Flew from Brunei Darulsalam at 2100 hours via Dubai and it took like 16 hours to London. 8 hours from Brunei to Dubai and then another 7.5 hours from Dubai to London. At first the long journey was fun considering that all of us are new but soon it does took a tax in our lives.


Its painful sitting in a chair without any entertainment ( aka our front view tv is not working) , but the food keep us going kan Hendrico, and the snoring wow .. it keeps me awake too. hehehe.


But the flight attendant was okay and keep on telling us that they are going to change our seat once we reach Dubai ( yea rite)






This is when we arrive, tired but excited.


My sister came after an hour from Lewisham and it took another around 2 hours to reach home. but the ride home was fun ... listening to some Black girls with their English accent. But the thing that really struct us was riding in the 2 decker red bus.




My sister and me in front of her home in Lewisham.


Oh ya this is a part of the free co curriculum , tunggu bas tepi jalan hehehe

tapi the experience was memorable and breathtaking looking at autum.

Lepas tu cuaca yang sesejuk rasa kan. Tengok tu Carlina start buying things

lariiiiiiiiiiiiiiii..........................



This is on the way to Big ben.. thats the London eye at the back.

This is near the River of Thames.. canteks sangat.

One of the most beautiful places I,ve ever seen its breathtaking.




Bayangkan this is 2.00 pm and see ada lagi orang jogging kan. hehehe

thats big ben at the back. The architecture was superb.



This is trafagal square ,... and the backs the national galery ( where we see the Vincent Van Goh painting of the Sunflower) Punyalah aku bodoh tanya the guy there ,... This is the time kami lepak like most of the omputeh makan mee goreng from home. hehehe sedap jugak makan mee kosong time sejuk sejuk. walhal semua orang makan burger , hotdog and here we are eating our packed food ... who cares yang penting jimat duit kan.


me : emm Sir is this the original copy.

the men : oh yes of course and we some very famous painting from other painter as well picasso and so many others.


of courselah kan .. its the National Galery for Christ sake very lah aku ni bodoh tanya soalan yang tak perlu di tanya hehehe. tapi honestly the painting was breathaking and we got to buy some imprints for 6 pound each. The funny thing was all of us bought the same painting. Very the semua ikut ikut .......... buta seni kan hehehe. ops ampunkan saya tuanku.

My current Song


Actually i downloaded the Anuar Zain's ist single a few weeks ago before he sang for the Anugerah era. I loved the song so much that i had his song at home, office and my site office ( terpaksa bebudak aku dengar jugak) and now everybodys jinggling to the song.
When i heard that the new album was in store, i went to the nearest music shop but tauke kedai cakap " Ai yo siapa tu... and she told me if you want the album you can place your order and by 3 days sampai. So i pun place my orderlah...... apalah punya Bintulu ni.. CD baru pun tak ada. asyik-asyik lagu Cd Mawi je. Perlu ke aku beli Cd Mawi.. Wuek. So last week My Cd sampai and i notice that the near by shop are selling the cetak rompak, but i dont care because mine is better sebab ada booklet i can read and singalong hehehee. Honestly i love the album, never have u had bought a Cd that every clip is worth listening but my personal favourite is clip no 10 .. Teman terulung.. gosh loved it loved it. Love the lyric too.
So my current album is Anuar Zain and played at home, my office and my car. My site office belum download lagi, nantilah i balik cuti....

3 days more to go

I'm so sexcited,... three more days i will be in LONDON.

All things checked, i've updated my list and guess what Carlina followed my list. I knew she's going to follow them. Say thanks to me Carl.

So, hopefully Aidilfitri falls on the Saturday, so that i can spend my raya in Bintulu in the morning and shoot to Miri slightly in the afternoon, and pick up Hendrico and Diding at the airport on Sunday morning and str8 to Brunei.

As planned we will spend the raya again at Hendrico's friends house ( Makan lagi) terberaklah aku di kapal kelak , and then at 8.00 pm we will depart Brunei to London and reach London at 5.00 am.

Aged yourself

I got this email from Zafri a few weeks ago. You know when you got a lot of emails that you just keep it and said i'll read it later. Well today i didn't go back home for my lunch instead i run thu my old emails and found this one interesting email. its about aging and how we perceive our age. OKlah, tengok sendirilah.



George Carlin's Views on Aging



Do you realize that the only time in our lives when we like to get old iswhen we're kids?



If you're less than 10 years old, you're so excited about aging that you think in fractions."How old are you?" "I'm four and a half!" You're never thirty-six and ahalf. You're four and a half, going on five! That's the keyYou get into your teens, now they can't hold you back. You jump to the nextnumber, or even a few ahead.



"How old are you?" "I'm gonna be 16!" You could be 13, but hey, you're gonna be 16! And then the greatest day of your life . . you become 21. Even thewords sound like a ceremony. YOU BECOME 21.



YESSSS!!!But then you turn 30.



Oooohh, what happened there? Makes you sound like badmilk! He TURNED; we had to throw him out. There's no fun now, you're just asour-dumpling. What's wrong? What's changed?You BECOME 21, you TURN 30,



then you're PUSHING 40. Whoa! Put on the brakes, it's all slipping away. Before you know it, you REACH 50 and your dreams aregone.But wait!!! You MAKE it to 60. You didn't think you would!So you BECOME 21, TURN 30, PUSH 40, REACH 50 and MAKE it to 60 .



You've built up so much speed that you HIT 70! After that it's a day-by-daything; you HIT Wednesday!You get into your 80's and every day is a complete cycle; you HIT lunch; youTURN 4:30 ; you REACH bedtime. And it doesn't end there. Into the 90s, you start going backwards; "I Was JUST 92"Then a strange thing happens. If you make it over 100, you become a littlekid again. "I'm 100 and a half!"May you all make it to a healthy 100 and a half!!



HOW TO STAY YOUNG

1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height. Letthe doctors worry about them. That is why you pay "them."

2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down.

3. Keep learning. Learn more about the computer, crafts, music, art, stock,gardening, whatever. Never let the brain idle. "An idle mind is the devil'sworkshop." And the devil's name is Alzheimer's.

4. Enjoy the simple things.

5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath.

6. The tears happen. Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person, who iswith us our entire life, is ourselves. Be ALIVE while you are alive.

7. Surround yourself with what you love, whether it's family, pets,keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.

8. Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it. If it is unstable, improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.

9. Don't take guilt trips. Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county;to a foreign country but NOT to where the guilt is.

10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.



AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the momentsthat take our breath away.

An unfortunate event

I wrote this a week ago, but internet kat campus teruk so i just save it and here it is

Something happen in Bintulu these last few days. On Friday a Chinese woman found dead in Tg Batu , lying dead on the seashore. She was found dead by a cleaner in the wee morning. Cause of death = not known.

The yesterday another incident happen in Taman Lihua just nearby the Campus. A Foreign man married to a local women ran amok after a fatal financial argument.

The man then stab his wife at the back and then caught his son and nephew ( wife side) hostage until today. This morning when I drive back from the Immigration there was a road block , so I have to turn back and use another way to reach back and later find out from our Guard that the foreign guy was gun down and died instantly ( wah pandai aku menambah perisa ni).

Apalah nak jadi with the world nowadays. Unfortunate events happen almost everyday. Killing, Raping , molestation , robbery and many more and these we se, happens everday on TV but when it happen in front of our face , next to our place or even to us,, what may be think????????.

BE CAUTIOUS EVERYONE. ….. AND PEACE ON EARTH.

THE LAST ONE TO KNOW


Sometimes I wonder whether I am too strict with my subordinates, because I hardly hear anything from them, no complaints no nothing like as if things runs as smoothly regardless if there’s any problem or not.

There are times that they would be discussing about a matter among themselves and when I do ask what is it about, they would keep quiet, and act as if nothing is the matter. GOSH I don’t understand these people. FRUSTRATING ???…. Well not really but it would be nice to be told and not be the last one to know about the matter.

That’s y sometimes I do ask myself, was it me or was it them. Was I’m being too blunt that no body could penetrate to me or was I just being to superior that its kinda hard for them to discuss things with me, that would include my 40 plus year old staff as well. ORRRR…. maybe my traits of being an executive in a plantation especially when I was in BAL ( A well known British Company) still within me. I remember when I was in the Plantation we( the executives) would be asked to exclude ourselves from our staff and workers. We would have our own houses far-far away from them and it would be only during festive season that we could mingle.

I guess that’s what happen during the British Colony whereby all races and cast were segregated ,so that no interaction comes within them it Malay they call it Masyarakat Majmuk, during my time with BAL we are for bided to go and mingle with the worker what more to stay and eat in their houses which I always did because I grew up in BAL and that mostly the workers in BAL are my friends or my family close friends, but being a teenage and a rebellious guy I never bother of any of the bosses remarks.

I guess I was the example of what the British trying to avoid. A boy came from their lower colony ,grew up and made it in the industry and finally penetrated himself in the Management level and later having a hard time familiarizing himself with the whole situation.

Then, when I crush myself out of the Industry, then realizing that I am a different breed altogether. I have this human skill that differs myself from other people but at that time the skill were merely autocrat, and a lot of my ways are forceful. People around me just couldn’t argue with me because somehow or rather I would be right ( but I guess that has something to do with being born in the year of the Monkey) and as what Fadzilah says Allan ni selalu saja nak menang …. But I do accept it when I did wrong because I learn that the hard way ( I told you about it in time).

So ……. Is it bad to be the last one to know…… well.. there’s pro and cons but if you ask me, It would be nice to be the first one to know in order for me to think ways and means to settle troubled things and not to face bigger and larger trouble because it would take more thinking to solve it. SUSAH SUSAH………
