The moment of truth


My friends and I enjoyed Penang and most importantly the food in Penang *nom nom nom*

Happy Friday peeps!!! I just wanna let you know that I will be going back to Penang next year again and that will be by third year running. I had a very fulfilling trip and I bonded with people whom I wasn’t close too and the conversations were interesting too. This shows expanding your circle of friends can bring some flavour to the mix and even give some new dimensions to the level of conversation.

Today I feel appreciative of my friends especially my close ones who have always bring joy and giving me some awareness on new things I would simply discover through my friends’ experiences and from there, we will be able to appreciate what we have and focus more of the present (neither the past nor the present). So thank you guys for showing up and empowering one another.

During my Penang trip, I lost two of my valuable possessions though they are not expensive in value but they are very dear and in a way priceless to me. So it was kinda a low key moment for me because I was suppose to give three things away that are meaningful to me to the three most important people in my life. It somehow teaches you how to let go off things and you don’t hold too much attachment to it. Now that’s hard to execute, right? But I was already willing to give away my dearest items but I ended up losing them *lol* ironic, aye?

Yesterday I had a challenging chat with my good friend about my opportunities. It’s great to see my friend able to see the potential in me that I’ve so much to offer on the plate right and she believes that I can grow if I just grab those opportunities. Sometimes I ask myself if I’m pretty comfortable in what I do which is just blogging. I do have other things in mind where I could mushroom from the success of my blog.

I hope to start my Panini Sticker Album collection later.. As you can see I’m pretty behind and quite a number of people have already finished their album. But it’s all good since I still can feel the satisfaction of sticking on my album book slowly at my own pace and enjoy every single moment before the deadline. I remember 2 years ago during the World Cup 2010 that I had this urge to finish my album as quickly as possible and I felt proud about it *lol* Now I’m just going with the flow and see where this will lead me.

Before I sign off, I want to wish my good friend, Nisaa Suresh (Bonita), Happy Birthday and I know we did catch up once in a while but I want let you know that you are a true friend. I still remember our eCircle days *lol* and that’s how we get to know each other and it feels that we both graduated into our own lives. So let’s do lunch or dinner again soon.

Below are pictures and recap of my Penang trip with my buddies last week. Enjoy your day and enjoy your weekend.

Intentions vs Expectations

*LOL* First of all, you guys must be wondering what on earth is RA talking about? Intentions are things that can be of your visions or your goals which are made of small objectives to help you guide through but some where along the lines we humans are attached to expectations which makes it difficult for us to focus on our actual intentions. It may sounds easy that way I’ve described it but it has a deeper meaning to it and this is why relationships among friends (mutual and close ones), families and marriages can fall apart because of high expectations. This was what I became aware of during our relationship course back in Penang and the most important relationship that I’ve neglected for a while is the person in the mirror – myself :))

I’m glad to back home in Brunei after an 8 day trip to Ipoh/Penang and man, I really missed my room back at home.. I was also able to watch the Euro 2012 matches at my own comfort though the matches are shown past midnight so it has been affecting my sleeping patterns once more. I managed to catch Prometheus which I haven’t gave a review just yet but it was an okay movie for me. More review on that soon.

I will heading off to Singapore for a week this weekend for the upcoming coverage of CommuicAsia so it’s another trip I’m looking forward too. So it’s more of a working/holiday trip. My family is currently outstation in the UK. Speaking about that, it’s been a while since I’ve been to London. InsyaAllah next year it could be a possibility ๐Ÿ˜€

I’m slowly getting back to the groove of blogging and do have a great weekend ahead, guys!! In my head, I’m still deciding whether to invest in the Macbook Pro. Well, honestly, I was looking forward to new iMacs. I’m pretty sure by July we might see new ranges of iMacs..


This picture is dedicated to one of my biggest fan – Muhd Syahmi – who celebrated his 12th birthday yesterday. Happy belated and may Allah bless you ๐Ÿ˜€

Today (14th June) there is a blood donation drive with GetFitCrossfit, HPC and Bloodbank RIPAS at the Bloodbank RIPAS. Organisers have given the option for blood donors to come in fancy dress (as heroes!). This is to encourage young people to give blood and to show them that giving blood can be a fun social occasion.

More information on the event can be found through this facebook link: http://on.fb.me/KmoECJ

This is a part of the drive towards World Blood Donor Day celebrated in Brunei Darussalam on 24 June 2012 at the Health Promotion Center and commemorated annually worldwide on 14 June.

Other events include the “Recruit a friend” program until 14 June 2012, whereby recruiting a friend for blood donation will give you a chance to win prizes.ย 


The goodies you will get from today’s event. Taken from HPC Brunei Facebook.


How do we handle this?


These incidents happened at 3 locations three days ago. Break-ins have become a rising trend in Brunei and it’s a very worrying sign. Image taken from Brudirect Facebook page, documented by Borneo Bulletin

Where other countries have used more drastic tactics in breaking ins, Brunei have just started a less sophisticated way of breaking in at public car parks. I owned an SUV and the hardest part is that I don’t have a proper place to hide my belongings as an SUV have window glasses at the back of the car which makes it visible for others to see.

Anyway, the main question here is how do we deal with this kind of situation?? Of course, it would be nice to have people like G4S patrolling places prone to break ins but such tasks can be very demanding if we were to suggest a few places. Perhaps the best bet is not to bring to put any of your belongings that are visible to the eyes of the potential thieves. Or if you have a saloon car, then place your belongings at the boot though thieves will be able to outsmart a lot of us at the rate they are going.

The photo above was taken a few days ago and there were five cars that have been smashed and a few weeks ago, there also have been similar cases. So peeps.. Be more mindful of your belongings if you plan to leave them in the car. The criminals these days are in desperate measures.
