**wrote this last night**

Finally… I could take a break & ‘goyang kaki’. Today was a busy, busy day. Started at around 5.30am when mom woke me up. Around 6am mom, dad, grandma & I went to Limbang Immigration. I had to walk across the border with my grandma to ‘cop’ aka stamp her passport (visit pass is only 14 days ma so have to stamp it before it expires). Wah lau eh. Can u imagine me half asleep walking across the border? Luckily it is not like Miri immigration which is so far. Mati pula if haf to walk across. Hahaha… It was so cold la this morning. What do you expect at 6.30am? Lots of car… about 20 -30 car nya la, not like in the end/ beginning of the month after pay day. Definitely about 40-60 cars la then.

Anyway, after stamping the passport we went back la. On the way we saw this truck towing a ‘pulley’ with a buffalo on it! Aiyoyo… so kesian la I saw it. The buffalo was on its way to the butcher! To make things worse, another buffalo’s head was placed at its feet. Ish… Mom said “why are they so cruel? I think it must be crying because it knows it is going to be slaughtered because it can see its’ friend’s head at its feet.” Aiyoyo… so kesian pun ada. Anyway, got so pictures… not so clear la coz my dad didn’t want to go so near the buffalo coz it ‘shitted’ on d pulley. Hahaha… we saw shit coming out! Eew!! So gross la. But really kesian la… I dun like to see fresh or life stock, poultry, fish, seafood or whatever before I eat it. A family friend used to give us some chickens that she slaughtered. They were fro her garden! Eeew!!! I refuse to eat it coz I’ve been to her house before and the chickens/hens were like pets! Ish! Imagine eating your pet. I also can’t stand fresh fish that have not bee ‘claeaned’ and cooked, especially in the fish market. Aargh!!! Make me wanna vomit only. I get nauseous if I go to the market and the smell of the fish is so strong and pungent! It’s minging especially the putrid smell of rotten fish and its ‘insides’. Eew!! Uwek!!!!!


So we got home around 8 something. By 8.30am I was already in bed, continuing my sleep. Sleepy la. Come on la, you guys know my bed time is like after 1am. I slept at 2am yesterday night bah. At 10.30 I got up and then we all went shopping at the mall. Bought a couple of things for some people & I got myself ‘pearl’ bracelets.

(Ooh…got to go. My dad wants to use the computer… hmm… I know. I’d just watch my new DVD box set la. My first box set. Hahaha… Prison Break. Wentworth’s such a hot jailbird! Hahaha… brb…)

Aaah… back once more. It’s 3.07am now. No. no. I didn’t watch the whole set la. I started at 10.30 plus and watched the first & second episode. The Pilot was 2 hours long bah… so finished around 1.30am. Then I kind of hung around d living room, walk up & down… disturb my sis… anyway, more about that later la.)

So anyway, as I was saying, I bought a couple of things to bring back to Kuching. Can’t wait to get back home. We’re leaving on Wednesday morning at 5.30am!! Or so I was told. Hahaha… about noon we went to pick my dad from the office then we went to Hua Ho Mall Manggis to have lunch. One of dad’s friend ‘belanja’ us lunch at the Emperor’s Court. My first time there. The Dim Sum’s not bad. Hey, Royal Brunei Catering 9RBCF) food, what do you expect? Kind of frustrating though, he said today is Friday so we won’t order meat. Haiya, my family isn’t THAT strict you know. Considering what a feast we had for dinner later on… Anyway, food not that great compared to Dim Sum. Then again, maybe because it lacked the taste/ ingredients of meat! Hahaha… I’m a ferocious meat eater! After lunch we went back and the whole household except for my dad (who went back to work because he’s got a meeting) had a nap. Fuyoo… letih gila man. I was so exhausted for I don’t know what reason and when mom woke me up at 5.30 I couldn’t get up. I was like trapped in this semi-conscious state for a while. Plus my bro was playing this instrumental soundtracks CD I bought for him. Good music plus tiredness made me fall asleep. Finally I managed to drag myself out of bed. After I went to freshen up I sat in the living room and nearly doze off again! Sigh… I miss those days in uni when I could sleep all I want when I have nothing better to do. (Clubbing isn’t an option. It’s out of the question because I can’t stand the loud- and sometimes unpleasant- music plus the smoky atmosphere. And I prefer shopping than spend my money on useless things like alcohol)

At almost 7 we went to have dinner at Excapade Sushi Japanese Restaurant. One of the owners belanja us dinner at the Gadong branch. Pretty packed when we arrived but we got a VIP room! Hahaha… one of the waitress told another to bring us to “VIP room 5” bah. Hehehe… the room was in the new extension of the restaurant. We had to take off our shoes and kind of sit on the floor. It’s different, we don’t have to sit crossed legs, there’s like a ‘hole’ ion the middle of the room for the table and our legs. Hahaha… sakai bah. Never been into the room before. My sis goes there pretty frequent over the last 2 years or so. So she was the “head order-er” (I’m the one in charge when we have meals at the Le Taj Indian restaurant because I ate lots of Indian food when I was in miri… sometimes everyday or every other day!) She got me the prawn with rice sushi thingy, crab meat thingy, fried chicken sushi (she had the seaweed) and sizzling beef steak and soup. Hahaha.. think that’s a lot, I think we at about B$60 worth of food. My bro, dad & gandma had bento, my mom had this ‘kim chi’ soup thingy, and my bro also had raw salmon (eew! Fish is bad, raw is even worse! Luckily no smell!!!). then we had some other sushi which my sister feasted on, octopus, seaweed jelly, jellyfish and some kind of Japanese fried kuih or something like that la… the pics…


After that amazing filling dinner (had been on a 1 meal a day soup diet and today I had to ditch it. Lost a few pound already though) we went to this place that sell VCDs, DVDs and CDs. We call it Communist shop or komunis tiam (in Hokkien). Don’t know why, ask my sis la. Darn cheap stuffs there. I got POTC2 DVD, Mariah Carey music video (come on… it’s not to see her but the hot guys in there. Seriously.), Christina Aguilera’s Back to Basics, my 3rd Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights CD (my first got stolen so I replaced it and it got borrowed and never returned) and my Prison Break box set. I didn’t get the original box set because I didn’t have enough money (only have 20 & it’s 30. hey, Mall got the same box set –though looks different- & it’s 28 only!) and because I want to check the price in Kuching. If cheaper I buy there la. Ooh la la… 24 hours of Wenworth… should be worth it. Hahaha… don’t mind the pun! But I’m definitely going to get the original DVD. I would also buy Just My Luck original DVD in Kuching la. Was searching for Jessica Simpson’s new CD (not sure it’s out yet, got to check), nelly Furtado, Paris Hilton (hey, just curious you know. Also to add to my ever expanding collection), McFly’s American Edition album (Just My Luck… the ‘fake’ ones here have the correct cover but the wrong songs! Weird, they have other singers on it but none of McFly’s songs. Not even the title song. Weird.), Fightstar (good for smashing things around) and Shayne Ward’s album. Shayne’s song “No Promises” is stuck in my head. Nice song and sad video… reminds me of “No Me Ames” and the movie Ghost (I saw a music video –I think karaoke- of the Righteous Brother’s Unchained Melody using clips from the movie) where the guy dies and he comes back to see the girl kinda thingy. This kind of movie/video always make me want to cry and it would bother me for days… kind of disturbs me psychologically. I don’t know why but it seems like Dé Ja Vu you know. Maybe it because I had this recurring dream that I was married in the 60s to a Man Utd (or England, can’t really recall) footballer who died or something. Weird la… but it kept on recurring when I was 16… for a few months then it went off. Weird. But I don’t believe in reincarnation so it’s just bollocks!! Hahaha…

So, back to today. As I was saying I watched the DVD. Cool series and not what you imagine. I mean for a title like “Prison Break” you would imagine a lot of fighting and all that, Not so much. Maybe in the first few episode. It’s more of a psychological thing. It’s brilliant. Some of you guys know I like to read book or watch movies that toys with your mind and make you think here and there. Lots of plot and subplot which makes it interesting and captivating (I should know. I studied this kind of thing in uni, remember? Hehehe…) Wentworth as Michael Scorfield is the Mastermind of the escape and his character is very mysterious and intriguing. I like watching characters that are more than what you see. Actually I watched it on 8TV since July but I missed the first half and there’s two more episodes left (next week and the one after) so I might as well get the DVD right. Don’t want to spoil it for anyone interested but it is interesting la. Sigh… I’m going to devote this weekend to 100% sheer Prison pleasure (definitely worth it. Hahaha...)

Oops… got to go. My sis wants to sleep already. She’s sleeping in the living room tonight. Damn, I can’t go online on nights like this. She likes extreme darkness when she sleeps where as I hate the dark. I slept with the lights on when I was in Miri!! Hahaha… especially when I lived alone for two years. Scary bah coz… I see dead people… hahahaha…. Cheers y’all.
