`guess who's back?

I'M FINALLY BACK

-I have to sleep now.
Just wanted to announce it ;)

`yours truly,
R.

`hiatus until November

Finally, I'm announcing hiatus OFFICIALLY. With a warning, not like before. For that, I apologize.

So like most of you already know, I took AS October/November this year. For Biology, Maths & Thinking Skills. Which means I need time for studying. Therefore, I have to announce hiatus here & my facebook (that's a different matter).

So I have to say goodbye to the internet world for now & hopefully come back with a smile on my face and not a face full of regrets for not being able to study fully.

So this is goodbye for now. The end of my exams would be on the 17th of November. So I'll be back by then. It's not so far now, isn't it?

Ciao, love loads.

`yours truly,
R

`the second day of Raya.

Alright, alright, I changed my mind.

This post is for Zirah who has been asking for the pictures since that day :D. So sorry to make you wait so long! My bad T_T.

So on the 22nd of September, Nazurah invited me to her open house that day.

The host, Naz. :)

Before Hari Raya came, Nazurah & I already made a deal. Her kuih moor for my cheesecake.
So I did bake a cheesecake :)

Kuih moor is my favourite Raya dessert btw. That's why I agreed to the deal. HAHA.

Oh man, wasted a lot of cheese there. o_o.

My dad sent me to her house around 1.15ish PM :D


NOTE: I will continue later at home on my sister's laptop :D
I'm off to the canteen now with Emay & Basmirah! ^^. -- Time: 13.45

continuing... 4.08 AM on 4th October 2009 the at 18.32PM.

So anyway, I waited a few seconds outside Naz's house and then she came. And she kept asking if the cake in the box was hers. Of course lah! :P. When I got there, Zirah & Hazwani were already there. So we ate together, except Zirah ;D

Okay, I couldn't resist not taking a picture of where the desserts were displaced.

The blending of colours is so pretty!

Super colourful cupcakes & kuih-muih.

-- I only tried one cupcake since I'm not a huge fan of cupcakes with sweet icing on top. I like mine plain & simple. :). The swiss rolls on the other hand, were yummy! Been lovin' swiss rolls for a long time now..

And you've got to see the chocolate fountain!

It's so glossy! Can you see my reflection? LOL

Featuring Deej's hand, dipping a grape to the choc fountain!

Featuring Shien Wei's hand. I think that's a marshmallow :P

My tiny plate was full of marshmallows & grapes coated with chocolate. YEA-UH!

Deej with her own chocolate-coated grape.


Going for second round!
Due to the change in menu.

Told you I couldn't resist taking a lot of pictures

A glimpse of Zirah & Wani helping out Naz with the cups

Me & Zaimah, Naz's second cousin.
Such a cutie!

Zirah with Tasha, Naz's first cousin.

Deej & I. So colourful eh?

Here lies the kuih moor boxes! Love trading :P




Deej & I, duo pictures :D


Naz & I, of course!


A solo picture of Zirah.


Zirah & I. :)


I like the curtains & the ceiling :P



On the way home..

There are actually more pictures when I got home. But my pendrive seems like it got corrupted. Since my folders in it don't want to open anymore. DANG! -_-
I'll update when I get back from AS then.

So now I have to go to sleep. Rhea's having the start of her PSR exams tomorrow. Big day for her. High expectations for her as well. Bowhh. Good luck to Rhea! Better pass with 5A's :D

Okay then, ciaos.

`yours truly,
R.

`Selamat Hari Raya

SELAMAT HARI RAYA! :)
This goes out to all my Muslim friends;
I hope you guys got my Raya greetings through text message!
I know it's like 13th Raya day. (was supposed to post this on the 4th day of Raya, but I got caught up)
Talk about being late greeting here on my blog! My bad :P
Better late than never, like they always say, right?




I hope you guys are having the time of your lives even though there's a little bit of spirit from the Hari Raya mood this year.
Don't forget to do your homework even if you guys are in the Raya mood now :P

PS. I will probably post the pictures of my Raya outings after my AS exams. Because I don't think I have time to blog from time to time when the AS exams are just hanging around the corner. So yeah, sorry again that you guys have to wait a few more months for most of the pictures. Oh, there's another factor. My PC broke down on Tuesday and most of the pictures are there. o_o.

I did mananged to save some so no worries.

Now, I'm going to move on to my next blog post.

`yours truly,
R.

`lil bit of this & that..

Hmmm, it seems, due to my previous status on Facebook, people thought I would update my blog that day.

Apparently, procrastination struck me. So I apologize for getting your hopes high. Since I bet some of you are still waiting for the pictures I've yet to release. Just a little more patience. Maybe a few more years.. Nah, I'm just kidding. As you can see, I suck at time management. Oh, and I lack self-motivation. So I just need a little bit of encouragement. ... MAYBE x).

Just so you know, this isn't a full update, if you haven't noticed. Just something little. :P
I'll be back later to post about my latest outing.

(This was supposed to be posted hours ago. Sorry, I went to sleep since Kuya used the PC. T_T)

Okay then, I'm off to watch Gossip Girl season 3, episode 2 and the season premiere of Big Bang Theory, Season 3 episode 1. I may even make a reviews for these. Depends on my mood.

Laters!

`yours truly,
R.

PS.

HAPPY TEACHERS' DAY
to all the teachers in Brunei!
especially to the teachers who taught & still teaches me.
It's a wonder how you could've put up with me. I'm pretty stubborn. :)
Without all of you, my life would have fallen apart or had gone a wrong direction.
Thank you very much for all the motivations & pushing me to do much more than I thought I could you.
You really inspire me.
I salute you!

(Especially dedicated to my teachers;
Tr. Lily, Tr. Chit, Ck. Azizah, Ck. Fadillah,
Miss Vivian, Miss Lim, Tr. Adrina, Tr. Noelda, Miss Lim AG, Miss Amani)
♥

Oh, and since I pretty much suck in poems, I hunted for poems on the net. And I especially like this poem for Teachers' Day :)

A Teacher for All Seasons

A teacher is like Spring,
Who nurtures new green sprouts,
Encourages and leads them,
Whenever they have doubts.

A teacher is like Summer,
Whose sunny temperament
Makes studying a pleasure,
Preventing discontent.

A teacher is like Fall,
With methods crisp and clear,
Lessons of bright colors
And a happy atmosphere.

A teacher is like Winter,
While it’s snowing hard outside,
Keeping students comfortable,
As a warm and helpful guide.

Teacher, you do all these things,
With a pleasant attitude;
You’re a teacher for all seasons,
And you have my gratitude!

also this,

God Made Teachers

God understood our thirst for
Knowledge, And Our Need To Be Led
By someone wiser;
He needed a heart of compassion,
Of encouragement, and patience;
Someone who would accept
The Challenge Regardless Of The
Opposition;
Someone who could see potential
And believe in the best in others . . .
So he made teachers
