The Kingdom

I've been trying to squeeze in as much time as i possibly could to watch as many movies after getting a new television set. For some reason, even bad movies seemed pretty decent when you watch it on a television set like the Sony Bravia. Haha. Last weekend i bought some movies from the "Orange Shop" in The Mall and out of what i've watched so far, the one that i enjoyed the most was Jamie Foxx's "The Kingdom". I can't remember if it was shown in the cinema earlier on but if you guys haven't watch this movie and you happen to enjoy action movies a lot, you wouldn't want to miss out on this one. The storyline of this movie is pretty much like what you see on the news with what's going on around the middle east today with all the war on terrorism and stuff like that, which is by the way, a bonus for you too if you have a liking for terrorism related issues. Probably more for guys la this movie. Not that i'm saying girls won't but hey, if you wanna be a tough chick, go watch this movie and learn from Jennifer Garner. She freakin' stick a knife into one of the terrorist's head!

Actually my brother was the one who introduced this movie to me. I'll only watch the movie if he gives the following type of rating;

"Damn power..."

Other than that i wouldn't really wanna bother. Haha. I wouldn't recommend this movie to minors or those who's like Frank. Squirm around when they see blood. This movie is quite gory although not as gory as Saw or Rambo. But then again, i still wouldn't recommend to minors cause there's too much Jihad stuffs. So yes.

I'm clueless now. I'm gonna look for Cloverfield dvd next.

It was out in Brunei... but then when I asked no one wanted to go...

Anyways, the first part where the terrorist steals the car and kills the people in town and then blows everything up is bloody... but the end probably wasn't... suspenseful though.

Then probably i didn't catch the trailer or i didn't know about the movie..haha. I actually find that part very disturbing especially the self bombing part. To think that that whole self bombing thing really happens in reality..kinda creeps me out.

"Allah Akhabar!" *boom*

APL*ITUNES 866-712-7753 on your bank statement? YOU HAVE BEEN SCAMMED.

[Update 17Jan2018] - Wow. To think that 8 years later, this scam is still going on as I'm still getting the odd notifications every now and then with comments on this post. TLDR: If you guys stumble upon this random site because of the APL*ITUNES 866-71-2-7753 charge on your credit/debit card, call your bank immediately and report it as a fraud.  If you have an iTunes account and have any bank cards associated with it, you might wanna beware. I normally check my bank accounts every now and then just to be sure that there's nothing fishy going on in there and of course at the same time, just like many of you *secretly* hoping that someone might accidentally transfer $1 million to my account as well. I've had a few cases of credit card frauds happening and so far, banks have been very cooperative with disputing transactions and issuing me a new card (especially my local bank, SCB Brunei. Well done!). So today, i checked one of my overseas bank account and found out tha...

Foreigner marrying a local Bruneian. A step by step guide.

Image
Time to put this blog to good use again. Seeing that there's hardly any resources online for what one should do when they have decided to marry a local Bruneian, here's what I can tell you in a quick summary.  Brace yourself.  Especially when dealing with the immigration department officials and the paperwork requirement. Despite being married for two years now, whenever I have to make a trip to the immigration to renew Calla's visa, my mood instantly turns sour and I just rage mentally. The repetitive paperwork submissions and the waiting time is absolutely ridiculous and if you're unlucky, you'll be greeted with a " Nombor sudah habis " (Out of queuing numbers) just as you arrive at the immigration which pretty much means, screw you - try your luck again tomorrow! And I shit you not, in order to secure a queue number in the morning, one have to start queuing in line by 6 am at the very least while those working at the immigration department is prob...

"You have a lucky face" / "You are lucky" scam.

Image
Re-posting this from my status update on Facebook which I shared the other day on a rather unique encounter.  --  On my way to my car after work today (while doing my Pokestop runs) an Indian fella stopped me on my track and said "You're very lucky. You have 3 lines on your forehead I can see that is luck".   That obviously stopped me for a bit as he approached me and said "You wanna know how I know? I can tell people's fortune. You wanna know your fortune?" Curious me nodded yes while my brain let out a big sigh and told me "That's it, you're gonna fall for this somehow." This "fortune t eller" proceeds to make small talks about how I'm happy but I'm only 40% happy while scribbling on his notepad discreetly. He then crumpled up the paper and made me hold it in my first and said "What I wrote in there, you don't know right?" (cues my no shit, Sherlock! moment) Then he started asking me to pick a n...
