sunday

i recently bought several dvds at my favourite store in kin orient. the price is rm6/piece which is a very good bargain. there is also a wide variety of selection both new and old. due to the recent oscar bug, i bought nominated movies e.g. queen, babel and letters from iwo jima to add to my collection of oscar movies. i did not buy dream girls or pursuit of happiness because they will be shown in cinema soon. tried to look for the departed and miss little sunshine but they are not available. actually i've watched the departed when it was released and it was an excellent movie. gruesome but exciting. it had been a while since i last saw a movie that gross. but did not mind watching it again because as i mentioned, it is a very good movie. the departed is based on a hong kong movie, an internal affair. since then, there are many hongkong movies and dramas plotted similarly; police and the mob competing to find the 'mole' among them.


i also bought borat: cultural learnings of america for make benefit glorious nation of kazakhstan. i have watched a bit and it is absolutely humorous. bought it coz i know there is no chance it will be shown here in malaysia due to the tight censorship with its elements of anti-semitism, sex and politic.


today marks my second last day in sibu. bought my favourite all time snacks - lee fah mee to bring to kl. i am sure all sarawakians are pretty familiar with it. it is like mamee but it has much better taste. it is not available anywhere in kl so that's why i bought a box of it! very yummy and tasty to eat while reading or watching tv.

2-1/2 days more to go

i have 2.5 days more to spend in sibu. absolutely not happy about how time flies when you least expect it to. i'm gonna miss sibu always even though my life is virtually meaningless when i worked here.

the mAtter began to haunt me again yesterday when i made a visit to my uncle. i always felt uncomfortable whenever it was brought up. i tried to act natural, trying to avoid from bursting out my feelings which i kept down deep inside. i know it is hopeless because nobody will agree with me as the fact will remain unchanged, and cannot be changed forever.

also made a visit to my cousin's house. his house is almost a mirror of what i would like my own future house to look like. the deco is simple, yet elegant and pleasing.

visited dad's friend too. i used to have hots for his son (maybe still now) but i don't stand a chance coz he's going to marry soon. too bad. :(

packed my luggage too. try to keep it to the minimum so that my hand will not become too sore from carrying it.

the first

prelude:i have actually started a blog back in 2002 but stopped continuing it due to various reasons. decided to continue blogging to chronicle the boring life of mine.

went to morning mass at the sacred heart school chapel today for station of the cross. this week is the first week of lent. a season of penance, fasting and abstinence. should refrain myself from some of the things i greatly enjoy which is terribly difficult. to avoid from commiting sins is similarly hard. you know, at the spur of the moment, you just go with it even though you know it is very wrong. i am still weak in controlling my urges, Lord forgive me.

after the mass, we went for breakfast at a coffee shop at the bus terminal. had tomyam bee hoon soup which is a change from what i usually had - zhao chai bee hoon soup. i did not quite like the zhao chai bee hoon at this shop because they cooked it with egg. the best zhao chai bee hoon in sibu in my opinion, is in aloha corner. it is simply heavenly, attaining the taste of zhao chai until the last drop. ummm.......

4 more days to going back to kl. am SO not looking forward to that.
