JPMC is cool

I finally went for a medical check at JPMC this morning. I will have another appointment next next saturday for the result. Anyway, it took about one and a half hours for the medical check up. The last one was X ray. The thing is I could have done it in an hour. Bukan nya apa, I had to make myself urinate and give a urine sample. Anyway, I pray and hope that the result will be positive..in other words healthy. I was given a breakfast coupon that I can redeem at the JPMC cafe which is run by the Empire Hotel. Jadi tah free sandwich and hot drinks. So I called up Jimah if she could join me for breakfast at the cafe and she did. I like the cafe coz they serve healthy food and cheap as well...ngam the month's promotion. Anyway, just before leaving the cafe, I bought a lunch take away. A brown rice, 2 big pieces of honey roasted chicken, sauteed mixed vegetables, a bottle of water and a green apple and it all cost just $4. Cheap innit? If onl JPMC is very near to Bandar, gerenti hari2 ku lunch sana. Cheap and delicious. I think I shall do it again during my next appointmen..woohooo...

Birthday surprise

It was a birthday surprise last nite for minur..advance birthday surprise tho his birthday will be this Friday 27 November. Since, he'll be away on that day onwards, we decided to surprise him last nite..wooohooo..kana jua si kawan atu..hahaha..konon kan mengelak dari kana surprise..hahaha..anyway, I pray that semoga Minur di panjangkan umur, di murahkan rijiki, di kuatkan iman dan sihat walafiat..amin!

Pointing fingers

Finding people's fault is easier than appreciating them and this always happens at the office. For them, its the best way to attack someone's credibility and integrity when in fact people notice that they have no credibility and integrity by doing so. This usually happens to subordinates when the bosses started to attack them with all kinds of faults and mistakes they could find. For me, they don't deserve to become leaders and it shows that they are not good leaders at all. Leaders should teach their subordinates, guide them, advice them, train them..they should not embrace the negative..like believing in assumptions, talking behind their back, scheming, giving bad recommendations..these are totally not the qualities of leaders should have..its wrong..its bad for an organization and pointing fingers should be stopped..period..

No running

Almost a week without doing the running activities is unbearable. Everytime I saw people doing their run on the road ached my heart..I truly envy them..hehe..I need to rest for a week due to the fever that I suffer...kalau ikutkan hati mau jua ku kan belari..tapi apa boleh buat..kesihatan atu lebih penting dari yang lain..plus I'm sure once I recover, my running shoes will find me..hehehe...anyhow lately its been running in the late afternoon..almost everyday..and it makes me think to run in the morning instead..moreover the best time to run is always in the morning..its been proven when I did my routine 10km run in the morning for one year straight..I felt more energetic and stronger..even rasa mengantuk pun nada throughout the day..but one thing that should be maintained is to have enuff sleep of at least 7 hours of sleep everyday...dats the trick..

Gerai Zainab

Located somewhere at Jalan Haji Halus in Kg. Bunut, the small restaurant serves authentic Thai food as well as our local food...finally I gotta have lunch there with my friends since we planned it ages ago..the owner was a Khun Thai married to a Bruneian man. Each of us ordered different dishes and I guessed all the food being served were aroy-aroy, simply delicious...even to the extent the chaa manaaw Thai, the Thai ice lime tea were very delicious indeed...the only setback of the restaurant is that they do not have parking spaces so we just parked at the road..luckily its just jalan Kampong, so no hustle bustle lah..anyway, I will probably go and eat at that place again in the future..gotta try out other thai dishes..the somtam was really good..yummy..anyway, the gerai opens daily except sunday..

Bracing for the wet season

Its been raining everyday now and this is normal at this time of the year. Hopefully it won't be as bad as last year when the flood disaster struck Brunei..mayhem tarus oleh nya nationwide..anyway, for me the rain is always a good thing..why? because its rezeki dari ALLAH..kalau friday or sunday..its a bless esp. when we are still in bed..heheh..but a rain is still a bless from ALLAH..but right now, I just seem can't be expose to the rain as I will easily catch a fever..even now I'm a bit feverish and at night I have unusual fever attack as my body temperature will go up as high as 43 deg...tinggi kan..anyway, I went to a private clinic in Serusop this morning and was prescribed anti biotics and if the feverish thingy persists, I was asked to make further checks at the clinic in a week's time..but for sure I won't go because I will be going for a medical health screening at JPMC this Friday..though its $240 but its probably worth it...plus the screening includes cancer marking which I think is about time I had a check on it..just to make sure that I'm free from cancer...

I talk when I talk

but I usually like to listen, assimilate and express my thoughts...I am actually a quiet person if people really notice but not in a sense that quiet quiet..I meant I don't usually talk about my personal stuff...its not because of fear,but primarily because of trust..I don't open up to people or my friends easily unless they open up to me first..but I don't expect them to be...I have always consider my friends as my family...coz once I got out of the house, we meet up and take care of each other..all my life since I started work I like to make the ends meet for my family and friends..caring them so much that sometimes I neglect my own..yang penting if they are happy, I am happy...money is not important to me, bagi ku I spend only cukup2 untuk makan,minum di rumah, fuel and pakaian..and of course some saving..selebih nya ku suka belanja kawan2 makan or minum..ku niatkan semua atu sedekah and I hope they don't got me wrong jua if most of the time kami keluar ku belanja saja well not all the time jua..if they must know memang dari masa ku start keraja di Shell udah ku cemani..dan nda ku pernah minta balas balik apa..yang penting keikhlasan atu...

Its been a long time..

since I did not jot down anything in this blog..bukan nya apa..primarily jua I have been shutting all access to this blog..ada tah reason nya tu..so for now,I am the only one who can access the blog,nama nya tuan punya..anyway,doesn't matter. I'm just gonna continue jotting down here for as long as I can as this is the place I can trash everything out - happiness, sadness, joy, feelings, opinions but for now I can't share the blog with my friends, dear friends. Anyway, I have been hectic lately with work and today I am not feeling very well, a bit feverish and I have to cancel my supposedly 21km run t'row morning..oh well maybe next time..earlier in the evening, I took a short nap before going out to meet up my friends at Sagar Restaurant.Its been wet since after work until now.I took some panadol but I still feel the cold, I think its the wind jua. I don't know why I am so feverish within a short span of time, rasa ku balum batah jua ku damam and malas ku kan membawa ke klinik..ngalih..anyway back to the saturday nite outing ani, lapas dari Sagar tadi we had hot drinks at Matadoe and finally we did the Saturday Mc D thingy at last since ages ago..ramai jua org eh d Mc D ah..but not the usual crowd..anyway, our friends Abi and Atol ada tadi..esp. Abi,batah udah inda jumpa ia and I'm glad seeing both of them..

Wedding Anniversary

Saturday night BBQ last night was celebrating my parents wedding anniversary..and tarus tah ku melagau kawan2 ku to celebrate my belated birthday according to th Hijrah Calendar by which I just turned 38..anyway, all of my nephews and nieces slept over a our house last night..and unortunately I still don't have a camera to capture the family event last night..kamera rosak..and I need to get one soon..anyway I woke up early today arnd 545am pasal nya bejanji sama bro aming and khu kan menasek...though I didn't sleep well last night and I also received a text from eme gtau yg. ia nda jadi join kami menasek but I was already confident that eme won't turn up..hehehe..so basically we started off at 645am and finished at 9am..we didn't go to Markucing as planned but to Bukit Laur instead, but we ran on and off all the way..puas jua hati lah coz whatever we ate last night masa BBQ atu abis udah kami burnt tadi pagi..wooohooo..anyway, a good friend of mine Zul burrpday today..he should be 31 yrs old according to the Hijrah calendar...

Untuk renungan bersama: HASAD DENGKI

Firman ALLAH:

“Wahai orang-orang yang beriman! Jauhilah daripada perasaan prasangka (buruk sangka), sesungguhnya sebahagian daripada prasangka itu ada dosa dan janganlah kamu mencari-cari kesalahan orang lain dan janganlah sebahagian daripada kamu mengumpat sebahagian yang lain. Sukakah salah seorang daripada kamu memakan daging saudaranya yang telah mati? Maka tentulah kamu merasa jijik kepadanya. Oleh yang demikian, bertaqwalah kepada Allah. Sesungguhnya Allah maha penerima taubat lagi maha pengasih sayang.”
(Q.S. al-Hujurat: 12).

Salah satu tanda wujudnya penyakit hasad dengki ialah berlakunya perbuatan jatuh-menjatuhkan, pulau-memulau dan fitnah-memfitnah di kalangan segelintir anggota masyarakat dan sering berlaku di pejabat. Sindrom negatif ini wujud kerana ada yang kurang senang ataupun iri hati terhadap kelebihan ataupun kejayaan yang dinikmati oleh orang lain. Pada kebiasaannya, bila mana hasad dengki bersarang dalam dada, maka dia akan menterjemahkan perasaan itu dalam bentuk umpatan (ghibah), berkata bohong, mencaci dan memburuk-burukkan seseorang. Dengan perbuatan keji itu, seseorang yang mempunyai sifat dengki itu mengharapkan yang kelebihan atau kebaikan pada orang yang didengkinya akan hilang atau turut dibenci oleh orang lain.

Lazimnya, orang yang mempunyai penyakit hasad dengki tidak pernah selesa dan tidak pernah merasa tenteram. Ini kerana setiap detik dia hanya memikirkan kelebihan serta keistimewaan yang dinikmati oleh orang lain di samping sentiasa memikirkan bagaimana menjatuhkan orang berkenaan serta merasakan dirinya wajar memiliki kelebihan itu.

There's always an option

I am having a lot of thoughts lately about my future career development...I have always like my job since I first started and I had committed myself in every possible way I can..but at one point we also have to forsee our career development...that is why now I am thinking of opting to apply and aiming for a different career..I have browsed through the United Nations websites and they have quite a lot of job offers worldwide and they also have job offers in Thailand under the UN flag. I am going to apply one of the suitable jobs they are offering one of these days. This may be just the beginning of good things to come for me and my future.

The tiny toons adventure

This is my favourite cartoon movie of all time. Its totally hilarious and cali berabis and until now I haven't found its DVD in any shop here. You should watch it you haven't...hehe..

A good run

Weeeyheeey..it was really a good run yesterday, trying out a new route..well done to wadd..u've made it..we started off from the Stadium heading towards the Sungai Akar round about and back..yang ku inda suka saja the traffic..laju2 bah mutuka ah..but siok jua lah esp. doing a fartlek on that stretch of road...but I'd still prefer the old Legco route...walaupun jauh but its safer and a bit relaxing..no hustle bustle..anyway, by next week a new runner will join on a regular basis..I hope he'll last..hehe..

November showers

I meant meteor showers..I wonder if we can view the meteor showers from Brunei on the 17th late night and after midnight of 18 November ani..if in Thailand dapat liat, why can't we here? Anyway, the best place to view it is somewhere where there are no lights at all, not even street lights.

Markucing and 21km run

There'll be a trekking to Markucing this Sunday. Seperti biasa we'll start at 7, so kalau kan join the outing, datang saja before 7am and bekumpul arah gerai Bu Hjh. The last time we went was like a couple of months ago. And jangan lupa bawa lots of drinks and some light snacks. And, for my runner and jogger friends, next week on sunday 15th, we are going to make a 21km run from the Stadium to the Mentiri roundabout and back, so kalau ada yang mau join bagitahu saja..

Selamat Hari Guru 2009

'SELAMAT HARI GURU'

It will be stamped

These are among two views from different angles on the top of Mt. Santubong..its just refreshing and simply breathtaking...a jump shot is a must here..hehehe..well at least its gonna be stamped..

Izzit really wednesday?

Its already mid week and I still thought its Monday today...anyway, I woke up late this morning and I came late to the office, 715am ku sampai ofis..usually I arrive before 645am everyday except Saturday..pasal Saturday weekend, so I usually come at 8am on that day...and I usually leave office at 415pm everyday...primarily because kan jogging and menasek since masa ani by 6pm galap udah hari and maghrib awal jua...lagipun its just 15 mins early ku leave ofis and minus ku datang everyday pun still its 45 mins the ofis still owe me my working hours everyday IF ku kan bekira..and IF atu pun kan kana question or kana tagur...I'm not surprise one of these days that someone in the office will complain abt me leaving ofis as early as 415pm...and I don't really care either...nowadays people likes to see and talk only the bad things about other people...its both occupational hazard and culture..office politics is prevalent everywhere, for the sake of one's own self interest, backstabbing is no longer an option, its the only way...

Unreleased footage

Now released..hehe..video footage ani ada lah fiction dan rekaan semata-mata..tidak ada kaitan dengan yang sudah mati dan akan mati..hehe...

November comes November goes

In less than 2 months..its gonna be the year 2010..hmmm..I don't know what to expect next year. More or less, its just gonna be the same. We live and we die and we live again forever..hehe..But I hope 2010 is gonna be more exciting and vibrant. Yang bisai nya bulan ani most of my friends are motivated to do more sports activities..which is good..ada yang start dieting jua apa and running in the morning..but for me I just stick to my usual routine..but I hope more people and friends are joining up the daily after werk sports activities...

Next to be conquered

Insya'allah, this mountain will be conquered in January 2010..its only about 2,658 feet above sea level..so I guess nda pulang tinggi tapi I'm sure its gonna be challenging...

Sunday's Boot Sale

Goodbye weekend! hahaha..yup another good weekend..as always...life's good..innit? Yatah kemarin, I went for the Car Boot Sale at JPMC..selling off most of my old clothes at the cheapest price in town..haha..mostly at $1 per item..kadang2 I put the price at $3..ingin2 hati saja..but not more than that..at least I felt good about it..I didn't regret selling all my clothes yang baik2 atu..nda jua kan baju buruk2 or bubus membubus kan di jual..heheh..I don't care if ku jual atu murah as long as dapat ku clear those old clothes...daripada nya buruk dalam almari inda berpakai..most of my clothes ani yang street brand like Next, Top Man, Lacoste, Dockers, Seeds, Moto and G2000 apa..and some cara melayu jua..and most of the buyers ani are Filipinos and of course our local people..I still have some of my old clothes left, probably if I stayed at the boot sale till 2pm, abis kana bali kali semua..coz I left the place at 1030am..anyway, overall its fun and satisfying, I'm looking forward for the next car boot sale kalau ada..
