HIE there everybody!!! Selamat Hari Raya!!! weeee............
HOpe U ppl out here doing fine in Singapore. Sorry Have not een bloggin for quite awhile. I m Busy MAn!!! Then i wanted to try new stuff thats why i seldom blog...But actually the main reason is because i need to climb a very steep hill to reach the lounge to access the net.
Ok first thing first.. Selamat HAri Raya. I noe its a lil late but ya.. heeeheee.... ITs the thought tat counts u noe. hehehee. Raya here was quite........ Special. In Singapore you tend to tink that Hari Raya is juz a celebration. But when u r here. Its nt juz celebration... Its also learning hw to appreciate the ones u love. Damn.. Celebrating Hari Raya without my family and syg?? hmmm... CAn it b any worst?? Aniwae its juz a learning experience for me. PArt of growng up.
Ok then I would like to seek forgivenees from all my frens, my family members, and the enemies.... Please forgive me if I have ever done anyting wrong wit u ppl.... N i truly mean it.

HiE aGain frOm The LAnd ABroAD......
A day has passed. My very first night spent in Brunei. Yes its quite an experience.... Woke up, stepped out of my bunk, and..... an experience that I first encountered. The cool fresh wind blew its freshest on my face. Never breathe such an unspoilt, unpolluted air before.
Today I got to know alot of information bout Brunei from the Chief clerk. He explained that the pace here is very much slower compared to Singapore. He enlighten us with stories of our seniors... both positive and negative. I was shocked when I hear that most who came to Lakiun Camp did not take e opportunity to save up their money but rather spent it during their home leaves, and during any other times. They spent only to find out that they did not manage to save up anything. There is also a story bout a soldier who only depended on 50 dollars every mnth!!!! and saved up a BoMB!!!! Haix... so where shall my direction be... I wonder....... ????
Haix... finally my tour of duty is going to start tomoro. I am going to under study my senior. I will be replacing me, for he has ended his tour of duty. Hopefully what I have learnt in Singapore, PLC, I could apply here. Insya Allah....
LAst, my syg and my mum goin to send me kuih raya!!!! yey! So i guez all is not lost bout raya!!! Btw iTs home-made u noe!!! hmmmmmm... .Tats y I love them lots.... Missing the people back home. mAyb tats y they say absence makes the heart fonder.. well it sounds so true... I luv u lots syg... take care of yourself for me ok dear??? muACKZ!!!!!

Hie there Guys.... Greetings from the land of Brunei Darulsalam........
Juz e night b4 i go off, a whole lot of ppl tat i care sent me off to the airport. Such a sweet gesture. A lot of tears were shed...( especially my syg and mummy). OK! the point is, I am now 1138km away from home. But I shall promise that the distance shall not part me from my loved ones.
ABout my life in Brunei....Hmmmm. I guess it has juz begun.... I can feel the spirit among each other here. The people here worked and functioned like a happy family, where everybody noes everybody else. Where NOONE is a stranger. Its whole different culture here, but I am willing to open up myself to accept a new way of living.
The environment is great. Lush greenery, Blue skies.. (atleast from e camp it is tat way ar.) The accomodation is simple yet fulfilling. wooden houses with air con??? hw cool is tat??? Hot showers anyone? How bout Indian mee goreng? Bet U peepz tink tat I cant find tis in Brunei rite?? U r dead Wrong!! Alrite... Ultimately i have yet to experience he Brunei Lakiun CAmp Type of life... I have yet to make more discoveries.
Lastly, I would like to end my note to my Syg... B strong in everyting u do.DO TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEALTH DURING THIS HAZE PERIOD!!!!!!(hehehe...she's asthmatic!!). To my sYg, the 1138km will not stop me from loving you. It will not stop me from missing you.... Muackz! love lots.....!

Morning to the peepz out there....At last!!! The bloggy is up and running... Firstly I would like to say my thanx to my fren Mie, the architech of this beautifully constructed bloggy. This is what we would say.. "Nie lah namanya sahabat sejati..." wahahhha!!!!
Ok, lets start the talking and quit the crapping. Finally the day has come. Tomorrow night I will be leaving all the great stuff and peepz behind in Singapore. I will be flying to Brunei for a year to widen my horizon, and open up myself to the world. To the peepz that I love, my family, my beloved wifey, Nurul Zawani, and loyal frens, I leave not because I do not love or treasure you peepz, but rather to allow myself to learn about life, about living.
And to my beloved syg, I want you to know that I've always loved you. Yes difficult it was, going through the days, arguments after arguments, tears after tears. But!! Not abit has it changed the direction of my heart. The heart has always kept a positive hope about our future.. and I hope you could do the same. I know going to Brunei is emotionally challenging for my syg, but keep it strong keep it going... I know she can prevail and pull it through.
My last final note.... Indeed I have made many mistakes in life. Some are forgiving some are not. Nevertheless, I hope this eye opening journey will change that permanently. I hope it will make me learn to live life independently. Insya Allah...... Thank you Peepz.. Tll next time, we'll meet again.
