Sunset

So many blogger friends put up pics of sunsets so i thought i'd put my 2 cents worth.


Nowadays, a good shot seems to be one which is all gloom and full of 'dark ambience'. What happened to cheery photos?

morning dew

I woke up at an ungodly hour today. Well, 5am is too early for me..especially after a very late night lastnight. But a beautiful crisp morning greeted me, so it was good in the end.


I am glad we still have fresh clean air in this country.

Crowd

Trying to capture the busy-ness of the crowd. busy busy busy. Wish Brunei is this busy. The only time tani ani sibuk camani is when ada cheap sale atau berabut kan membali tiket bula. Atu behimpit tia. Mun inda...dui...



Eh, au, jua kalo kan meliat konsert Dangdut. hehehe.

This other picture was taken at the same place, Orchard Road Singapore, during the Carnival earlier this year. Love the way they light up the place.

Ganya luan tinggi Yao Ming atu..ikut jua tia begambar...kacau.

One dollar shop

Took my Nikon to the One dollar shop the other day. well, smuggled actually. The sales girl didnt know whether to stop me or not.


I like these shops. So many useless little things you dont need, for sale. I came out with a bundle of stuff that only little kids would want. Great.

river

Its amazing you know when u have nothing to talk about but u just present a picture to show something weird but amazing. I have none of the above, but just a picture of a ships' moorings submerged in a river. Its old. Not used anymore, but its still there.

13

The number 13. Some people consider it an unlucky number.


I went to a building in Singapore a few years back and theres no 13th floor and no 4th floor. Just skipped the numbers. Funny.

Kayu

I'm glad Brunei is joining the Green Heart of Borneo initiative. Good for us. Ganya aku ani suka rumah kayu. So how? Wood is just so natural that to live in a rumah kayu just feels right. Especially in the tropics. Its cooling lah.



Saw these the other day. Di aMiriKa. Di Jalanraya. I wonder if they are taken dari hutan asli, atau hutan tanam..???

The Sun

Yesssss the sun is back!!!!! We can start running again and off to the golf course without getting all muddy and wet. Eh rindu ku eh matahari atu eh. My kreta also missed getting a wash. Its all dirty after two weeks being all dirty and unwashed.


I was going thru my pictures and i saw these. Taken on a very hot day! Kasian eh those boys and girls. Glad nobody pengsan. If dulu-dulu, OK lah keep children in the hot sun, but kids nowadays, with aircon everywhere, sikit sun pun sudah susah hey. We need to toughen up our kids. Give us National Service!! Just make sure it applies for those under 25 please.

btw how come the teacher can wear a hat huh??

a smoke

Stuck in a long traffic jam the other day , so like all good little photogs, took out me Nikon and started snapping. Actually i saw this car in front of us with the passenger's hand sticking out holding a ciggie. Don't u just hate that??


I used to smoke but stop sudah. Indada menguntungkan tu besigup atu. Sadar ku udah. Its not so much that it kills you, but more the way it kills you. Lung cancer is painful babe. I have seen a friend dying of lung cancer and i got scared, the way he tried to breathe, damn, it scares me.

If u smoke, try to stop.

why do men have nipples?

The description on the cover says "Hundreds of questions you'd only ask a doctor after your third martini". The book is full of answers to silly questions like 'does eating chocolate cause acne?', and 'is sperm nutricious? or fattening?' (hahaha), or 'can u drink your own urine?' (yuck!), or 'can u catch diseases from a toilet seat?', and of course the age old question 'do men need sex more often than women?'.


The scientifically proven answers to the questions above are 1. NO, acne is connected more to changing hormones than to food choices, 2. The average ejaculate contain about two to three hundred million sperm. Total calories: about five. So despite its important load, sperm is not particularly nutricious nor fattening, (hmmm...) 3. The Chinese Association of Urine Theraphy (seriously!) says urine is sterile, antiseptic and nontoxic. For serious Yoga practitioners, drinking one's urine is called amorali (er..Danura..?). Its 95% water anyway, with the rest being 2.5%Urea and 2.5%salt and other minerals. But the point is, why the heck would you want to drink your own urine??? 4. Yes you can, BUT its not that common. (phew!). However...WORK may be worse than the toilet seat. A study in Arizona found that the typical office desk harbors around 400 times more disease-causing bacteria than the average toilet seat!! (Obviously, they havent seen our public toilets in Brunei! Huh!). 5. Do we really need to answer this question??? As if we dont know the answer already!!! hahahaha.

btw. Why do men have nipples? Its because boys and girls start the same at the embryo stage. Its only after six weeks that girls nipples were put to use. Men are left with nipples that do nothing. oh, and men can get breast cancer!
