Sushi Kings.

It has been a great day indeed! We made our cancelled Miri trip on Wednesday happen today! All thanks to Afiq for using his car to drive the long miles and for reaching our destination safely. Even Malai tagged along. We drove out a little bit early today, probably around 11, because Afiq had to service his car which was in Tutong after picking up Fathul and Fikri.




We reached Miri around 2 o'clock. We were hungry so we decided to eat at Sushi King. I clearly remember us waiting for an hour for the weekday 20% promotion which starts at 3 PM 'til 5 PM. We still had a couple of more minutes to spare so we went to Toys'R'Us to buy "Malai's toy". She bought the "Bop It" thingy. I'm sure most of you know of it. It's a fun toy to play with! First time playing it too! The gist of the game is to do what the toy commands you to do. For example; it says, "Twist it". Then you'll have to twist one of the parts respectively. It's just that, when you incorrectly do it, you have start all over again. Another cool thing: It holds a high score! Hahaha.

It was already 3 PM so we headed down to Sushi King. To be honest, I ate quite a lot! I'm sure the guys did too! Similar to the 'shop 'til you drop' kind of thing. Hahaha. I only carried RM200+ and thankfully, it only costed less. What more on its 20% discount. We didn't do much after that. Headed home around 6 - 7. Meeting point was at Fathul's dad's place in Tutong.



I just remembered that the birthday boy, Dindin, was having a BBQ party at his place. Afiq and Fathul parked their cars in Kiulap and we waited for Malai to pick us up and go there in a single ride. There were a lot of people. I've seen and met familiar and unfamiliar faces; Hafiz, Geez, Rastamann, Haji, Memet, Dayat etc. Good to know the guys are in good health, just enjoying themselves throughout the party. I wasn't really hungry so I didn't touch even a food there. Only drank because I was really thirsty from all the singing in the cars on our way back home from Miri. We didn't stay long and so, we went home. I hope to see any of you guys again in the near future!



I feel so tired from all that eating and walking and joking about uncontrollably in the car along the way. I'm hoping for a good night's sleep tonight. So.. good night, guys! Thanks for reading!

Happy birthday to me.

I'd like to thank each and every one of you for the warmest wishes and thoughtful greetings that I have received via Facebook, Twitter, SMS and Whatsapp. Not forgetting to mention the 12 AM tweet greets! I've lived on through another year for now I am a 17-year old. Another precious year ahead of me and I hope for good things and positivity to be on my side this time. To be honest, it has been a wonderful journey, indeed! Thank you for being there for me at most random times as possible - every one of you! Whatever that I have done that has involved you in my current life has made me who I am today - a blessed and thankful boy. I'd also like to thank the Brothers for bringing me to Miri today. Zul couldn't make it due to personal problems, but it's okay! There's always next time! NEVER SAY NEVER! Thank goodness we reached Miri and back home safe and soundly.


I spent less than RM400 in Miri today. I bought myself new speakers to replace my old one! Logitech beats Altec Lansing, or the other way 'round. Anyway, at least I didn't go home empty-handed! First destination was the Boulevard. That's where I bought a 5m AUX cable for Fathul/Fikri - whoever's it is. Also, the first place where I surveyed for the speakers. Next stop was Parkson. This is where the fun starts! They recommended a restaurant called "Sushi King" just because it's not anywhere in Brunei. As soon as we were seated next to the conveyor belt sushi, we started to grab anything that interested us! Surprisingly, we ate more than 30 plates!





Fathul and Fikri then had to go because they had some picking up to do. So Afiq and I were left. I wanted to check out for the new speakers which I had in mind so we went up to this store called "PCiMAGE". This Logitech speakers caught my eye and it cost about RM199! Afiq asked one of the salesmen for me and proceeded to checkout. Oh yes! I did the most kindest thing too! I gave RM200 and the cashier gave me RM2 in return. From there, I knew something didn't feel right.



I thought to myself, "Why did she give me RM2 as change when I gave RM200 for a RM199 item?"

I went back and was honest with myself. Her look immediately changed and apologized. It's okay, saleslady! I could've gotten away with an extra RM1 in my hand anyway! Just joking! Now, I'm back home safe. Thanks to Afiq for the sweet ride and time. As to Fathul and Fikri for the company and laughs. I even video recorded the trip to Miri. The audio might not be clear, but may it be a tribute to my beloved birthday! I will upload it soon enough! Pictures too!
