A Weekend in Miri

Last Saturday, my family and I went to Miri and spent the weekend there. We stayed over for 1 night at Imperial Hotel and had such a relaxing weekend. Below are some piccies! :)

Jazmine's Wedding

Last Friday night, an old primary school friend of mine from Sunshine School, Jazmine Athirah invited me and a couple of our x-classmates to her wedding reception in IGS college in Kiulap. I went together with Mas and Zamriah. The space was transformed beautifully with wedding decorations, flowers and a large golden wedding throne. We stayed until 10pm and congratulated both the bride and groom on their wedding day. Below are some piccies from the reception. :)

Back for the Holidays

Hi folks! :)

I am currently in a holiday mode. My sister is back for her 2-week holiday from Cairo since the 26th of January, and my family and I are very grateful that she is safely in Brunei right now, especially with the news of the trouble and protesting that are currently happening in Egypt. It is certainly a dangerous situation and we pray that the other Brunei students will be safe from all the troubles. We heard from my sister's housemates that there were tanks and men with rifles wondering about outside their current apartment last Sunday. Oh my goodness! That would certainly be a frightening sight! It looks like that my sister has to extend her holidays in Brunei until the situation has calmed down. Of course we are very happy to spend more time with her much longer than planned.

Below are some piccies of some sweets & delicacies that my sister brought with her from Cairo :)

Varieties of yummy sweet pastries

Kuwaidir: sweet biscuits

Chocolates

Yummy fresh fruit drinks and fresh bread that stays soft even after left out in the open for long.
