Its a toilet. I did not realise it when I first looked at it. Then looking at the sign, its definitely a toilet. Hehehe.. It is situated in the middle of a street in the city. Hmmm... weird. Cali cali. Imagine if you were inside it doing your stuff and making the noise(I think you all know..) and other people nearby can hear the noise. Hehe.. And imagine going out of the toilet looking at so many people smelling the 'nice' smell after you do your stuff. Hehehe.. Nda g batah kn raya.. Happy Fasting and Advanced Raya..

English

I entered English (Report Writing Skills) class jsut now. Not a compulsary subject. Just want to improve my report writing skills because I know I am terrible at it. There were only eight of us. Two Germans, two Chinese and four Bruneian(Green Girl, Ching Lee, Has_ayono and I). Well, I think the class was fun and fairly easy. Nothing that I do not really know. Basically, everything we have learnt before. So.. how do we improve our writing skill? Well, according to him, we have to read and write(ignoring whether we make mistakes) a lot.. Well, I don't think I can do that. Hehe.. Malas bah.. but maybe writing and posting to this blog might help.

BruScot

Yesterday, we went to our senior's place at Glasgow for our first BruScot gathering and meeting. BruScot, I think, is a society of all Bruneian students studying in Scotland. There are currently around 40 Bruneians studying here. The gathering went well. Only a few did not turn up. We had our sungkai, sembahyang jemaah Maghrib, 'Isya, terawikh and Witir. The gathering also meant to elect some students for some of the vacant posts. The result: Nuai is the new the vice president of BruScot and Has_ayono got the new assistant event coordinator post. Congratulations...

Happy Fasting everyone!!! I did not realise that we've fasting half a month already. Miss all the food that I usually eat during sungkai.. Miss eating together with my family.. Miss my friends..

Cine Dunia..

Watched World Trade Center yesterday. Overall I'd have to say it's really boring. Not as I expected. I thought there would be so much action. Also, I thought Nicholas Cage would be one of the heroes helping and rescuing other people but he was instead being rescued. There we go for our first outing/movie.. but what the heck..

Happy belated and advanced birthday to animeDrac(3/10), Rash(3/10), Eechut(5/10), Venus(9/10), Green Girl(17/10), Atap(17/10) and GreenWanderer(29/10) kalilah.....

Brunei vs Scotland

• Obvious fact, Scotland is colder than Brunei.. hehe.
• Scottish girls are sexier than Bruneian.. hehe. I mean even with the cold weather, they still wear miniskirts.
• Brunei has ambuyat while Scotland doesn't..
• In term of cleanliness, I'd say Brunei and Scotland are the same. Some places are dirty here eventhough there are a lot of rubbish bins. Its everywhere.
• In Scotland, students in the class are very discipline. You can hardly hear people talking in the lecture. I think its either they are very tentative or their minds are wondering around. If its in Brunei, usually only when the teachers ask the students to keep quiet then they would sit quietly.. but after a few minutes, the students would start making the noise.
• Scottish walk faster than Bruneian. I thought I would be as fast as them(because I usually walk faster than my friends) but I was wrong. Even the girls walk faster than me. At first, I thought maybe its because of their long legs. Again I was wrong because when I tried walking beside a Scottish girl, who is almost the same height as me, still she walks faster.. so in conclusion, Scottish walk faster than Bruneian.
• Brunei and Scotland has their own very cheap shops. Here in Scotland, there's shops that sell goods and food for only 1 pound while in Brunei it has shops that sell things for 1.30dollars.
• Lastly, grapes are cheaper in Scotland than in Brunei... Haha.. there's a part of Scotland called Barras that sells 2 bags of grapes for 1 pound only.

In Scotland

Finally... I'm in Scotland. Missing you guys in Brunei especially my family and my friends.. Its cold right now eventhough the sun is shining. Made a couple of new friends from Scotland, Malaysia, USA, Egypt, Pakistan and India. Gotta make some more friends. Food... I miss martabak.. ambuyat.. Its really hard to 'food' here.. I have to blame myself for being so choosy. But nevermind as long as I survive. I lost my weight since I arrived in Scotland. Its not because of the food but because of the too much walking. We've been walking around the city and to our lectures almost everyday. So its a good way to lose weight. So if you want to lose weight, come to Scotland. Haha..

Oh ya.. The guys went to Glasgow to play futsal with the Engineering students two days ago. I think my team lost. Hehe.. I couldn't remember the final score. The number of goals was countless. It was really fun eventhough it was tiring and we were fasting. Something funny happened that day. There were two Pakistani boys around 12 or less years old approaching Mas. One of them asked her whether she would go out with either of them. Haha.. She was really surprised. And of course she said no.. She's married.. Thank God her husband didn't get mad.. Laku jua kdia ani walaupun kawin dah..

Here's some of our pictures since we arrived:
