There goes my $20k for the year!

I'm officially done with uni for the year! Not for good but just for my second year. Despite repeating this every year, i really think this year went by so quickly. Looking back at all the papers that i sat since the start of the year, i honestly have no idea how i got through but i'm glad i did and hopefully i'll be able to carry the same attitude until i finish uni for good. That's me trying to convince myself that i did put my fees to good use for the year. Results are gonna be out in a week's time and i personally think i did relatively okay for the final exams other than my Public Relations paper which was a bit challenging. What makes it worse is the fact that i chose Public Relations as my first option that i wanted to major at the start of the year but judging on how my assignment and exams went, i don't think i'll be able to make it in.

Anyway, we'll just see how my results turn out and let the uni decides. As for now, i'm sooo happy that i'm on my summer break! Other than my usual weekend work at Rockport, i'm pretty much gonna be bumming around until the end of this month before i head over to Michigan. Another white Christmas for me this year which i'm so excited about. On the other hand, i've been craving for this cake where they usually have it during the Raya season. It's called "kek tapak kuda" (horse shoe cake).

It looks like a horse shoe hence the name given...
The reason why i got a crazy craving for this cake is because someone tweeted a pic of the cake during the Raya season and ever since then, i could never get it out of my head. So instead of whining and spreading nutella over a piece of bread, i shall make my very first attempt at BAKING! Yes, this is going to be a mission but if it turns out successful, it's going to be worth the effort. Time it source for ingredients and the right baking tray. Come back soon cause i might post a video of this. Haha.

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...
