Entry 4 days delayed.. (Singapore - Brunei)

In my last entry, i mentioned that in Singapore, i would't be able to do shit. Basically i'm wrong. My whole perspective of the country Singapore is wrong. There may be a lot of rules to follow but basically the country is aight. I'm already considering staying there in a few years. The place, i just have to say is beautiful. The cleanest place i have ever seen in my whole life. Anyways, the only problem i encountered are the people. They can sometimes be too descriminating. Especially to Filipinos like us, probably because we filipinos can survive the high standards of living there and yet not ride with their trend. Maybe that's what's pissing them off.. hehehe.. anyways, here are some pictures i took from my phone (Oh yeah.. thank god i have a new phone!) i'll update you on brunei tomorrow.. and i'm off to the Lynx! PEACE!!

This Week on Mon's Life:

School this week is non-existent. Classes were cancelled last monday because of "Ramadan" and from Tuesday until today we had the YHE (Young Hoteliers Expo) and basically because of that we wern't doin shit. Our professors just makes us sign the attendance sheet on the Multi-Purpose Hall, and basically, we just hang there the whole day watching other students who are involved in the festivities. Anyways, other than school there's nothing new really, well, if you include my golf game going to putz (as if there's still any way for it to go to putz) i guess there's something new but other than that everything is all good. In a couple of days i'm headed for Singapore and Brunei for our school tour. I'm scared rather than excited about that trip because of what i might do that could get me into trouble. Shit, i don't want to get jailed in another country. Especially an Asian country. There are these things i should not forget when i get to them countries.

Brunei:
- Do not Insult the Muslim Culture (it's a Muslim country and if you do insult a muslim, remember that no one is bound to help you since they are all Muslims and you're head might end up in a doggy bag.)
- Do not wear shorts (it's insulting to their culture because you're showing off some skin and they might think that you're teasing them because it's against their belief to show some skin thus, ending up insulting their culture.)

Singapore:(This is where it gets interesting...)
- Do Not Chew Gum (It is a mortal sin in singapore to chew Bubble gum, especially Bazooka and Juicy Fruit because they are more potent than any other gum. and also, they don't like bubble gum sticking under their chairs, benches, tables and whatever. Lasty, breaking this rule can cause serious injury to your back because you can get whipped because of this.)
- Smoke in a Smoking Area (Here in the Philippines, The smoking area is just a place where you ditch you cigarette. The People smoke outside the smoking area. And the sign "No Smoking is merely a suggestion rather than a rule. Also, Breaking this rule may cause serious injury to your back reason explained on the "Do Not Chew Gum Rule".)

You know what, maybe i'll just stay in the hotel and just hold my breath while i'm in Singapore. Who knows maybe breathing hard or even snoring is a major crime there.
Anyways, probably my next entry is already is Singapore or before i leave so if ever! CYAH!! PEACE!! BLOG LATER!!

Been busy writing a novel for the NaNoWriMo contest. I never thought wrting a novel would be hard. There's this minimum of 50,000 words and the deadline is by the end of this month and as far as i know i still have a long way to go. My novel is about what i did last week, and so far i'm still on what happened wednesday last week. Anyways, today ain't as different as yesterday and the day after. Nothing extraordinary happened so far, Just the realization that the last half of the second term will be composed of project manuals and reports. Stressful but i guess for me that's better than staying in the classroom and listening to a professor talk for an hour and thirty minutes. Anyways, tomorrow is another free day and me and my dad will be heading for batangas to play a round of golf... hmmm... nice! Father and Son bonding! hehehe... PEACE!! BLOG LATER!!

I just reformatted my Pc and it's just lovely. It's just like new, a clean slate and all that.. lovely, just lovely. Anyways, It's exactly 8:06 a.m. and i don't know what i'm doing wide awake. I just watched my DVD of "Lord of the Rings: Return of the King" last night and of course as you all know, that's a freakin' long movie and obviously it ended late. So i'm asking myself right now, why the hell am i so energetically up right now.. *sigh* Anyways.. Yesterday was the first time i commuted after playing golf. My brother just dropped Me and Primo in the club because there wasn't any car available in the house and in Primo's. Anyways, after playing one round we decided to go home but i guess no one also could pick us up. So, we left our bags in the bag drop and went outside to wait for a jeep. At first we decided to Cadilak (Walk) until primo's, but eventually a jeep came and to primo's house we went where we got a car, went back to the club to get our bags and then headed straight back home. Commuting home from the club is actually aight, considering it being only at least 2 kilometers away from my house.. next time i'll try walking.. hehehe.. I'll blog again later.. heheh too early.. PEACE!!

note: oh yeah like Mrs. Hekmi i also joined in the NaNoWriMo.. where my writing skills are bound to be tested.. hehe Nice!!

And so my computer suddenly called it quits for the Internet Explorer, Lime Wire, Yahoo Messenger, MSN Messenger, AIM, and worse The Sims 2. This is why i haven't blogged for almost a week. I have been using my sisters iBook G4 but it's just as nice as my desktop. I FUCKIN' WANT MY DESKTOP! but i ain't got no chioce! Anyhow, these past few days were aight, surprisingly and at the same time uncheerfully halloween wasn't that great for me. I caught a cold from my blockmate last Saturday and all throughout the weekend and until now, i still have the damn colds! (Thanks Pam! you're the best!). The whole weekend, my nose was like a fuckin' faucet of snot and son of a bitch! it can be really irritating! But that's not it. The drowsy and heavy feeling when you have colds is just one of the lonliest feelings in the world and especially during halloween. There were parties left and right, but i had to pass on some of them because of my condition. I could just feel my body giving up! Last night there was a party in Nikolo's house, where everyone who were from everywhere was invted. I was with Cocoy, Primo, JP and Vic, we were all planning to go there but depressingly after stopping in Cable Car for a liter of beer each and 2 burgers in Burger Machine, and my system just giving up, we all decided to head home. But hey, we enjoyed out liter of beers! hehehe... anyways, i'm still fucked with colds and Cocoy, Brian, Sieg and Keenan are outside with a lot of bottles of beer... hmmm...PEACE!!! BLOG LATER!!!
