ALEVEL

I'm currently sitting for my October/November 2009 A'Level exam, a very big exam... so... this blog will be... err, yeah. So far I've only done Maths paper 1, 4, and just today, Maths paper 3. I did crap, but I won't comment any further; will just wait for the result to speak for itself next year. I still got 3 papers each for Business Studies and Geography. Hopefully I don't mess up that one.

Below are some blog drafts that I don't think I'll ever finish. I had a lot of drafts lately, because nowadays I tend to stop typing in the middle of blogging, then got too lazy to continue.

Wild AKIF appeared!
Wild AKIF used BLOG!
It's super effective!

I scoured YouTube early in the morning before going to school, and found loads of Perfume's remixes which I believe are unofficial work, and all of them are amazing! I especially loved K.466's mixes, and "The best thing ( 69mix )" is one of the best I've heard.

Few days ago, also on YouTube, I was Pefumeroll'd. The video was sort of like a parody of Perfume's "I still love U" PV, but instead of the 3 kawaii-kyaa-desu-desu-desu girls, we have 3 dudes donning wigs to look exactly like them, and they call themselves Pefume hahaha! I've seen the original PV before, and I was looking for it again to download it off the net, but when I saw Nocchi who suddenly had 2 big moles on her face, I instantly went like: "WHAT THE HELL IS GOIN ON HERE?". I got it a few minutes later, and laughed so hard because the fake PV is almost nearly the same as the original; the movement, the gestures, even the laughing near the end. Seriously made my day. So malas to look for it again on YouTube to share it here, but shouldn't be hard though if you're interested.

Back to present, went to school about 9PM. I only brought my business studies stuff instead of mathematics. Went to LT, and gila, full house haha, and panas. Sat down and continued doing the PYP from where I left last night, which was at Section B - darn those essays! Only managed to do one questions (altogether 20 marks, gimme a break) out of the three, which is actually the paper's requirement, but since this is revision, I need to do all of them.

Went down to canteen with them but I didn't buy anything because I have an epic zero dollar in my wallet. I spent $7 last Wednesday at the canteen hahaha! $3 for the Una-don, $3 on drinks and a dollar on french fries, was broke since then.

Yada yada yada, we were suddenly at the mall. The original plan was just to go jalan-jalan, but... last-last liat wayang jua. Me and Ong was looking for PSones CD because we're currently on PSone fever haha. There was a bunch of uninteresting one at Deejay, but other than that, there was none to be found sadly, even at EGM - given their long existence in Brunei's gaming market. Fath bought PES2010 at EGM, ahh the joy of having a PS3, except maybe for the farfetch'd price.

(...END?)

Bah itu ajer. Goodluck for the exam people!

Thursday Lunch Out: Kimchi Restaurant

It's Thursday, and we know what that means!
"Makkkkan luar?"

Oh wait, since it has been a while since I last blogged, I thought I would make a quick summary update on what's been happening. Here goes:
~ It's Hari Raya Aidilfitri! Which fell on 21st of September, so it basically has been going for weeks already. My raya was great, even though I didn't had the chance to go convoy with the 5As ;( BUTTT, it was still nice nonetheless. InsyaAllah, I'll try to post some blog updates on raya 9_9 y'know me... malas kan blogging.
~ Holiday ended on the 28th of September, and it's back to school. Ehh, my classes was mundane, basically finished Geography's syllabus, Business was cancelled since teacher was sick, and I only had Maths. Our college's canteen operator changed to; to a more cleaner, and umm... nicer tender, I guess. No more Nasi Ayam Goreng sadly, but finally! They served pure french fries! Hurray..... err.
~ After school raya is fun.

It's Thursday, and we know what that means!
"Makkkkan luar?"

We decided to try Korean food this time, so we went to Kimchi Restaurant in Kiulap.

Kimchi is the bomb! Been dying to eat it cause the last time I did was way back last year during the Korean culture day held by MD's Korean culture club. Zul didn't like it that much though hahah. As a party of six hungry people, we ordered the shabu shabu set - which I don't think was all-seafood cause there was meat, so I don't know.

I ordered me some fine chicken teriyaki lunch set.

It has arrived...

Unfortunately, we're all super n00b in this shabu shabu thing. Translation: no idea at all. So we just dumped the ingredients in bit by bit hahah! Since I can't capture well the jokes we made about the waitress at that time in blog post, I'll just keep it as an inside joke.

I liked the broth, the spiciness is just right.

Hope we're doing it right there. Conclusion: Though it was a very pleasant experience, I don't think I'd want to go there again anytime soon. Unless, the craving for kimchi start to kick back in. Oh, I'd like to try the seafood pancake if I do go there again, and try the bbq/grill menu.

September So Far

So my mock exam finished last week's Monday, the last paper was Business Studies paper 3. Thus I got about a full week of unofficial holiday, because the mock exam is still up and running 'til Saturday. I still went to college on Thursday and Saturday though, albeit late - for club, because I know I got nothing better to do at home anyway.

5th September 2009 - Saturday
It's my birthday! Happy birthday to me! I'm nineteen, a teen still, in the dawn of err... adulthood, pshh. I love birthdays.

6th September 2009 - Sunday
Happy 19th birthday to lame Zaitul Farahhinnah! Haha, well I know you enjoyed your day, since it's the 11th of September now thanks to the time machine.
There was supposed to be a sungkai outing planned at Excapade Sushi, but it was moved to Monday because all of the girls couldn't make it. In a way, I'm glad it was postponed, because then I can join the vivas for sungkai out at C.A. Mohamed, with our own asgai, Azri AR, who's on a break for a few days from bootcamp haha. Of course I knew there'd be a birthday cake. I mean, c'mon...

VIVA 5A+BIRTHDAY=CAKE

I felt bad for hunting for clues the first moment I met up with them at the mall xp And I got my first clue from Comel, yay!
Cim: Mana si Fathin?
Comel: Ia ke Kiulap, membali... *stop and turn around*
Hahaha. Rilek saja ku. We went to C.A. Mohamed around 5.45pm, and ordered our food. I ordered Mango fish and Teh Tarik. Err... the Mango fish, not so good. Then the cake came out, yayy, hahaha, thanks for the cake guys. You people are awesome as usual. Then went to Fotoplus, for some professional group photo... stuff. Can't wait to see the picture. Like I said, I love birthday.

7th September 2009 - Monday
Extra public holiday to commemorate the Nuzul Al-Quran. Another day out for me, Excapade Sushi! Yay, withdrew $50 few days ago especially for this... and of course, for some other stuff xp Watched The Final Destination before that, with Hanif and the seniors - Elevians. Annoying sikit watching that movie, because again and again, it's gasoline, gasoline, GASOLINE - they've really ran out of idea, the writers. But the gore effects are great still. Then to Excapade! I spent $18, good enough - and I was freakin' full to the point of puking. Fath ordered a lot as usual, sitting next to him is golden opportunity haha. Banyak ketawa atu kali jua bagi kan muntah... haha.

8th September 2009 - Tuesday
School resumes. And got my mock exam's result already (except for Business - teacher said we won't have any class until Saturday), it was bad - pretty deserving for a mediocre performance. I got 41.5/100 for Geography, and 29/125 (U) for Maths. Great.

9th September 2009 - Wednesday
Ahh, 09/09/09. Ngangah's birthday, and Otsuka Ai's too. My Geography marks was increased by 2 marks heheh, lucky. Another sungkai out with friends was planned today, but I had second thought and thus a bit reluctant to join. Anyway more to that later, I watched The Final Destination, again, with Su, Zaitul, and Yuni around 12:50pm. Man, I love watching the girls squirm haha! Su at one point was like, "This is so shocking!", around the part where the rock flung into the mother's eye, then gasping on another part - kan ketawa ku. Then on the part where the mechanic's body went through the fence's mesh, Zaitul was like "Macam lasagna"... err, of all things. Since aku lanja, duitku tinggal $14. Minyak kerita kan abis, I went home around 3pm, tired. All of the combination above made the sungkai at airport's Express seems so far away for now, and I felt like I spent too much money already. So I passed it off, home food is great too anyway, and it's free. Sorry I couldn't come, or rather, I wouldn't come hehe.

10th September 2009 - Thursday
I finally bought the wasabi powder at Sno-Food, Gadong - for $4.20 in a packet. The wasabi in small tube at Hua Ho cost me about $2.70, so I felt the powder form is a great enough deal. Time to make more veggie mix tempura heheh! Which'll cost me another $10 for the ingredients...

Waaasabiii!!!

I made these about a week ago - and it was freakin' good! For a first try, I impress myself.

Plinky Prompt Time! (1)

Describe any wardrobe changes you make when you get home from work, school, or your other day activities.

Pick your evening dress behavior below:

• stay in day clothes
• kick my shoes off
• put on pajamas
• change shoes & sweater
• other

Well, the first thing I obviously do after I come home is kick off my footwear. Then, to be honest... I change my clothes, but, I stay in my day pants. haha!

THATS A LOT OF NUT

There was supposed to be a test on paper 3, heck, it was still written there on the whiteboard as I entered Maths:

Maths P3 test
Complex Number, Integration & Vectors 20/8

But teacher just walked in, gave questions by topics for revision for the upcoming mock, and that's it - no "spread yourself out", no test paper, no whatever it is that makes a test. It's either she forgot, or she did for the lulz.

Played two rounds of UNO during PS at LT11, and I lost twice... err, and I despise red cards. Then I entered Geography class. I was expecting another one of those, "recalling previous lesson" lesson, like the one we've been having this last few days. But since there wasn't many people in, teacher decided for us to watch the Tsunami DVD documentary which she said she found lying in the office. She said it might come out for the mock exam. After 45 minutes of watching wall of sea destroying settlements, washed up dead bodies, and whatever that follows, we decided to wrap it up (it's actually because people kept leaving of the class one by one, which at last reduced to me, Liyana and Raby).

Lunch time, we makan luar since we haven't done it in a long time, plus it's the last day of school day before Ramadhan's fasting month. We decided to go to Excapade Sushi, and have dessert on Snow House. Fath have this knack of ordering big things off the menu, so with him around, that's always an advantage because you get to taste dishes that's probably off your budget range. Great food there as usual, and I always find their customer service excellent. Then off to Snow House. Man, it's only my second time there and I'm already bored. After we finished, we stopped by the mall for the CD stores. I bought the last two DVDs of Desperate Housewives season 5, while Ayman bought whatever it is that he's buying. Oh, I spent $30 in all - shit, add the two animu DVDs I bought yesterday, it's $42, plus the stationery, $48.

We went back up to MD for manga club. Fath went in too, because we actually planned on playing dotA, so he gave me his pendrive with the installer in. But he freaked out when I said my laptop have virus, so dotA one-on-one doesn't really materialise. We watched Kung Pow instead. All the while there'd people taking turns looking out at the notice board, updating whether the results is out or not. But naw, still no result.

Okay I'm tired of typing. Heard the JIS people got their result already though.

Selamat menyambut bulan Ramadhan, dan selamat berpuasa kepada semua muslimin dan muslimat. Assalamualaikum.

YE$

Once upon a tadi pagi, I arrived at school like any other normal, typical, ordinary day. Parked the car on reverse, glanced to my left, tick tock, Fath's Lexus will come to view right abouuuuut... - and it did. Stopped the engine, got out of car, locked the door, then walked to the temperature check-up point.

I sensed something missing, some noise. In registricion klass, I grabbed my shirt pocket, expecting the usual "clang clang" from my car key. Butt, there's no sound at all. I thought of the worst thing that could happen right then; liek, maybe I left it stuck at the car door's key slot - that's basically like there's a big arrow on top pointing to my car with the word "Hijack me" on it.

I shot immediately to the parking lot after registration. Once there, I saw no key jutting out the door slot to my relief, so I peeked inside through the side window... fook there it was, on the ignition. I retreated back to LT11, text messaged my dad asking whether he had the spare key and yada yada, and waited.

I entered Geography class next. Willson let me listen to his latest recording, "Kembali Bersama" the title was I think. It had catchy tune, hell I was humming to it in seconds, kinda mainstream, though it's in poor quality since I cannot decipher the lyric, heh. I wouldn't be surprised if I hear him on the radio years later from now - then I'd be like, "Kawanku nii masa form 6, aku duduk subalahnya time Geo :D" - though I can't imagine pronouncing ":D". Thennnn I continued doing my Maths test paper in the class - long story.

During breaktime, I finally got my curry leaves from Mai. At last, hello complete buttermilk chicken.

There was no Business class again like yesterday, teacher was on medical leave I heard.
My dad messaged me saying that he gave the spare key to the security at the security booth. I left the class after talking endlessly with Zaitul, then head straight to the security booth, and got the key, then finally unlocked the car. Ahhh, things went well, alhamdulillah.

As a loner, I went down the mall, alone, like a loner. I finally bought an earpiece, and it's yellow... err. Menyimpang to Kokoberry and bought Sky Blue, which had been strangely popping inside my mind every now and then. Lapas atu balik semula ke MD, and it's still 12:30PM. I thought of entering Maths class, but when I saw them people at LT11, I changed my mind. Hung out with them until 1PM, then me and Ayman had to go to our respective class, with Faisal catching up with us later.

Amazing enough, there was only ONE people in Maths class, add me and Faisal that makes three. Teacher left us around 1:45PM, so we went home. I stopped by the bank to get my balance checked since I haven't done it since my last withdraw in February. I left the bank grinning broadly. Huahahahaha, OH YE$!!!
