Toleh jua Kiri Kanan atu!

Well i've been in UK for more than 3/4 months now...kan masuk May tia sudah.

Did i miss Brunei?...Yes I do miss brunei.(especially the food!)

But at the same time I feel like ..erhh..you know..this is 'home'.Its so weird..
When i came here after I went back from visiting Brunei the first time , I said "Home sweet home~~"..and laugh...palui..what was i thinking??

How ironic.

The second time was on my way back from Oxford.It was 1.30 a.m..Well i miss my bus if you are wondering why i get back to canterbury so late at night..
Just walking past the Fenwick Building nearby the Bus station feels like "Waah..it feels great to be back home..coz it feels like i know this place--compared to being in Oxford where getting lost is possible and the feelings of being insecure...there's no sense of final destination for resting if you get what i mean..a sanctuary(bukan tempat mampus eh)

The third time was after the trip from London...
and the fourth time after i came back from Gillingham..

Home sweet home ..i'm back in Canterbury!!

The point is that..if you want to make your place feels like home--Go outside often!(Which i actually seldom do)Out of your town!Then experience the feelings of returning back to your town/state/whatever it is that you expect to live longer in.

Now i'm back in Canterbury, it can be so uneventful...well.. accept for main bola/liat Man United main and hangout arah 82 St Peters Grove...eh..thats it!

Now im used to hanging out wih lots of people ..my place seems to be quiet quiet...
Enough abou that!
Its a great day today and Its Sunday!
The first thing today is i've got a call from my mom in Brunei.

She said "nada earthquake di sana tu?"

Earthquake?eh.. lupa..aku bukan di Brunei! No wonder there's a possibility of earthquake di sini.

I Told her nada papa berlaku di sini ...as i said Canterbury was so uneventful..if ada earthquake that 'll be the most interesting post ever ahahaha...You know..today's post it might go like this..

'As i step outside my flat with the intention to do shopping at Tesco suddenly the ground shake like crazy...The building looks like it almost crumble into ruins and the first thing that came into my mind was "aaaah..shit...laptopku~~~~" and thats how i get to make this post today.
I manage to rescue my laptop just before the building crumbles into pieces and helped a damsel in distress along the way and live happily ever after.THE END'

Macam si banar.

There was an earthquake in Folkestone..If you are wondering berapa jauh Folkestone and Canterbury is..


Inda jua jauh banar bah..ahahaha..but still dakat lagi Belait dengan daerah Brunei Muara bila di bandingkan dengan Folkestone and Canterbury.

Nya babu lagi.."Toleh jua kiri kanan atu~~"

Huh?

Word of wisdom orang tua tua...

Metaphorically speaking jangan luan inda ingau...toleh jua kiri kanan atu~~
Earthquake berapa county(they call it county kah?or district ?entah eh) dari sini pun nda tau papa..daras jua ignorant atu...

Okie thats all folks.

jangan lupa.Toleh jua kiri Kanan atu!~~Hey ..i might even use that as my blog title.

Gillingham Siuk!

Tuesday 3rd April
9:30pm...so tired after the two hours ride from London...

I better get some sleep...Adi is coming tomorrow....

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzz

Keesokan harinya berbunyi mobile ku.

Si Adi inda jadi datang katanya..Separuh mamai aku berjalan menuju ke arah laptop...'Klik!'bunyi switch laptop ku switch on kan...(apakan..dramatik lah tu kononnya..)

"Lamah eh~~"aku berkunyanyang seorang diri..masih segar di minda bunyi-bunyian yang pernah ku alami sewaktu di Brunei Hall .Bunyi org berkuruh,bunyi orang kebisingan inda dapat tidur, bunyi alarm orang yang mengganggu minda dan bunyi orang main 'big two'.

Terkedu, aku pun tersedar..."sunyi jua ah....si Adi ani lagi inda jadi datang...."

Aku pun mula menapakkan tangan diatas tetikus(mouse).

Sambil menujukan cursor ke arah icon aplikasi Window Messenger..."klik"

Mata ku liar memerhatikan contact list sambil berkata pada diri sendiri "inda ramai orang online...hmmphh...apakan ku buat lagi ah?"

Nenganeng!

Sebuah kotak terpacul di depan screen laptop .

oh shoot!!Lupa ku sudah apa yang terjadi..blur berabis eh..inda ku ingat apa yang terjadi tapi aku pun membuat keputusan untuk pergi ke Gillingham..
(apa terjadi banar ah???lupa ku eeeh)

Si Adib di syaki menghantar aplikasi membasuh otak secara online untuk menyuruh aku pigi ke Gillingham..(banar wah ..inda ku ingat lagi apa terjadi and what makes me want to go to Gillingham...)

Yang ku ingat kata pemanis si Adib saja:

1)Malam ani masak mee goreng(apparently aku gemar makan mee goreng...)
2)bisuk katanya lagi 'american breakfast'(batah sudah inda ada proper breakfast aku ani)
3)malam bisuknya masak ikan masak kari(batah sudah inda ada proper food aku ani.i mean REAL food.balik balik fillet/maggi/filet/maggi/talur.)
4)AH!!!baru ku ingat!Liat Manchester United main against Roma..(Anilah yang buat aku tarus angkat kaki,get ready ,panyap beg dan pigi ke gillingham..akhirnya aku telah termakan umpan si adib...ahahaha..ndawah mau jua ku kan meliat tampatnya.

Well actually main motivator makanan pulang ganya tu...

"Lapas bangun tidur tarus pigi ke tempat luar dari canterbury lagi ani bah...Inda ko ngalih kah panat???"Aku bertanya pada diri sendiri.

Another part of me said "AAaaah!Biarin aja! Manchester United punya pasal inda ku peduli!mesti jua ku liat!!!"

And the rest is history...Manchester Utd kalah 2-1.

Okie enough about football..

Sebaik saja sampai di Stesyen Gillingham nampak ku si Adib berlari menuju ke stesyen dari mana aku bakas keluar dari stesyen atu (aiyooo paning ku eh sentence ani....pandai pandai lah kamu meng'digest')

Kaki ku terasa sakit serta sengal-sengal sendi bejalan menuju ke rumah si Adib.(apa inda jua..balum jua batah menerokai kota London..)

Okieh... i'll divide the post into three section:Makanan/Aktiviti luar rumah/Servis Tambahan

Makanan

Mee Goreng

First try:Nyaman!!!!!!!!Emm..at least i dun even think of masukkan any mixed herbs ,black pepper and white pepper in my cooking..-drool-(Adib ..i think i miss your mee goreng now....inda dapat C. A Mohd. 'C. Adib' pun jaditah masakkan mee goreng.

Si Adib insist masak skali lagi...ia pikir aku pikir inda cukup..(pahamkan maksud sentence ani..sekali baca inda cukup and confirm inda paham..)

Second try:Inda habis....pasal..kanyang kli sudah...ahahaha..plus i think 'terkebanyakkan' cuka.
(time ani lapar ku ni meng'taip' post ani.teringat mee goreng.inda kira first version atau second version..i could eat sepinggan mee goreng rite now...bila lapar semua nyaman...lumrah kehidupan..andangnya tu...)

1st day French Toast Quorn Sausage and scambled eggs
