Beaufort AGAIN...!!!

No No No.... not that I like white water rafting so much and that I visted Beaufort again. No No No!!!! It is not a HOLIDAY visit...

I was not feeling very well on saturday and therefore, I stayed at home the whole day. Yes...althought it is a small apartment. I didn't manage to attend the Girls' Brigade meeting which I was suppose to attend. I was just at home, resting and trying to sort out some of my personally thing. At least I found out that some of my insurances expired and some is still moving on and some need to paid this month, etc. Well, ... while I was sorting out all these, I received a phone call. A good friend who lives in Singapore called, said she and her husband arrived in Kota Kinabalu. Shocked, but... kind of used to it. She's always like that... appear without prior notice. hahaha... but I am so glad that she is in town. She promised to meet me for drink that particular evening, but just before we confirm everything with each other, I received another phone call from another friend from Tawau. haha... well, I ended up went out with my Tawau friend instead beacuse my Singapore friend said she can't make it that evening. I had a great time.

Well, the next day... I went to church with my Singapore friends and we had a great time in that church. Thereafter, we sorted out something and we headed to Beaufort to visit a friend. We only came back to Kota Kinabalu that evening at about 12am. It is .... tiring, but I really had a good time.

This morning.... when I came in, I started to worry about my business for the coming month. I am trying to close a few cases in my hand now. I hope everything works fine and well. Praying hard for it.

August... I can't believe time run so fast... and it is August already...

Reminder...

During a conversation with a friend, I was reminded of one great work my mom used to do for my brother and I when we were young.

I was asking a friend if he is doing fine in college and he said he is fine and he has a lots of books to read. That reminds me of how much time I spent in my university library. Besides doing my assignments, reading law reports and articles and do online search, I also read some other books. While my mind wander back to my time in my university in England, my friend told me that Labuan do have a good 'looking' library. hahaha... and that reminded me of my younger days...

I am not someone love reading books. My brother loves the books. He can sit for an hour and finish books that he got hold in his hand. My mom used to take the efforts to brought us to the library in Tawau every Saturday morning. My mom didn't force me to read what my brother read, but she encouraged me to read as well, be it a cartoon book or not. As long as I found something I like to read. After we finished a few hours in the library, we will borrow some books back. And because of that, my brother finish almost every book in the library.

I am sure agree with me that, ... my mom really did a good job. Thanks, mom...

Water....

Few days ago, I was shocked to discovered that I do not have water in my apartment. But water did came back after a few hours. So, I tried my very best to wash all my clothes, plates, floor, etc... and managed to do that on the first day of water shortage. On the second day, on my way back to my apartment from office, along the staircase, I saw ants along my way up. I was wondering in my mind that, as long as it is not going into my apartment, that should be fine. When I turned to face my apartment, I saw the ants are actually moving into my apartment. With shocks, I open my apartment and discovered that, OH NO.... it's my dusbin...!!!! I tried to wash everything but my dusbin the night before when the water came back. So, I ended up clearning my apartment and I started to cook my dinner. I managed to do that and sat down for TV. After an hour plus, I realised that water again, gone. I sat there, with sweat ... wonder when would the water come back again. I called my friend and I ended up taken my shower at my friend's place. On my way back, I have no choice but to buy a big bucket. I stored up water when the water came back around midnight. Yesterday/ Last night, I saw a notice (a piece of small paper) placed at the main door saying that it is the Jabatan Air's problem. They are doing a maintenance and the water pressure is low, hence, shortage of water will occurs. Until when? well, I wanted to know either... they only said: until it is resolved. OH NO... don't tell me this is going to happen FOREVER...

- oh no !!! -
