Smashing Extended Weekend

-
Gong Xi Fa Chai to my chinese readers, if so happen to read this...

It is an extended weekend for most asian countries that are celebrating Chinese New Year.  And it is the year of the Ox.  That means that my eldest brother is 36 years old this year.  How I know this, because there are 12 animals in the chinese zodiac, so I'm 30, and my brother couldn't be 24!

Anyway, we have been hitting the pubs and clubs, and I was completely smashed.  And yesterday was the best!  Yes, I was up to no good, and I'm not proud of it.  But I had an absolutely smashing time.  It was wonderful, it was great.  We were dancing all night long...  Trying not to sound like Lionel Ritchie.  The aftermath was not fun though, but yesterday was the night to remember.  Something I realise that you don't have to look good to pull, you only need the idiocy in you to come up and be all crazy and have lots of fun, and people will definitely flock to you, and thanks to my two great friends, they protected me as per my request before I went all out.  I didn't want to wake up in somebody else's bed!  Be it a naughty thing I have been, I have been a very very very good boy...  Hard to believe, but it is true!

And we did arrive all safe and sound to the hotel.  So anyway, here I am at Starbucks at MBK looking at the jaded people or should I say shopping people passing by.  Enjoying my Caramel Latte and Double Chocolate Muffin.  My friend's off meeting an old friend of his.  And I'm left to my own devices.  Yesterday we went to Jatujak!  We didn't shop for much, I suppose, when it is your 4th or 5th visit there, it became less interesting than it used to be.  But it was great, a great place to find things and *ehem* people.  Thailand is a great place.  Bangkok is fantastic.  Thai people are very welcoming and polite.  Me and my friend recently talked about the culture differences  between Brunei and Thailand.  Not much, but we notice here how much people smile to strangers, be it a local or a tourist, everybody smiles here.  Land of smiles.  And we often wonder why Bruneians don't do much smiling.  My friend told me that there seemed to be a thinking or a feeling that one is inferior or a loser when we smile.  I say that's full of crap.  How can a smile which often makes someone else feel much better makes oneself makes yourself inferior! 

Ridiculous right?!  But anyway, there are soooo many things I wanted to write here, but I just couldn't find the words to describe it, and just about a while ago a dragon dance just passed by with the drums and what-not that goes with it.  Fantastic...  Life is good, life is great at this time.  I wouldn't want it any other way.  Till then, wish you are having a good life as well, if not, I'll pray for you.  Take care and Ciao!

Random Rant, Update?

-
I don't know why. Here I am at 2.34am drinking left over "teh tarik" from today's open house at my parents. And decided all of a sudden that I wanna write something on my long abandoned blog. I have been clicking on the links that I have at the left side of my blog and it seems that most people have already abandoned their blog, by either cancelling them or not updating them.  I suppose it seems that writing a blog is no longer appealing and cool to some.  There are some that are still strong writing their rants. I am merely speculating, that now media is so easily discover-able that people are afraid to be on the accidental spotlight.  There have been few instances that blogs got discovered by their thoughts and suddenly everyone hates the writer.  And perhaps, again speculating that people are afraid to really say what is on their mind.  Naming and shaming is kindda "in" thing.  Especially with the freedom people can do with Whatsapp.  Just link it, yo

Happy Birthday to Me

Happy Birthday to Me Warning: This will be a long read. There are a lot of things in my mind which I wanted to express. Today is my birthday, and now I am three decades old. Time has travelled so fast in front of my eyes. And today, I look back my life and reflect my past. And will also discuss my years to come, insyaallah. First and Foremost, on the eve of my birthday was the Sixty Second DJ competition which ran align with the best 914. Best 914 is a singing contest where the contestants are selected from a radio show which they called in and sang with a minus one song. And now, yesterday they sang really really well and they sounded like professional singers. It's amazing that they are just singers who just sang along in the radio, for some they have been into a few singing contest. Then it was our turn. I was the fifth contestant, to go and face the crowd. It was nerve wreaking looking at what looks like about a thousand people watching you. I did what I can, and I did it wi

Tolerances and Compromises

-
I'm half angry and half sulking with my OH . Sometimes my OH have this ability to make me feel needy and clingy. Sometimes I feel that I'm always the one giving and giving, thus making me feel just like that. It is as if, I'm holding all my cards out for everyone to see for the sake of love. And I'm only making a great fool of myself. Where does that fine line starts or stop? Where would you draw the line from doing something for someone your love and doing anything and everything for someone you love? As days go by, sometimes I feel I'm doing the latter. I'm only writing my frustration here, not to belittle my beloved OH , I just need to release this anger that I am having at the moment. So what was this all about? Without elaborating too much on the matter, I asked to be together for one night and do what I wanted to do and then, I got a quick turn down. Purely because my OH don't feel like it. I've done my part of reluctance for the sake o
