Birthday Girl

A very happy birthday to my lovely sis, koda. Semoga panjang umur dimurahkan rezeki and berbahagia selalu. I love you. =)

Selamat Hari Raya

Selamat Hari Raya to all Muslims especially to Babu and Bapa di Brunei, maaf zahir batiin.

The first open house this year was held at the first day of raya at 8b Gowland St. There were 3 chefs in charged. And on behalf of Gowlanders, I would like to thank for those who came and making the first day raya such a lovely day.

BSA Sungkai

BSA sungkai is a yearly event which is held for us to get together. This year, it is kind of different where intead of potluck, Bruneians in NZ cooked for the meal together. An ideal way to strengthen relationships among us. I would say the food was splendid not forgetting the awesome beverage, 'Puspa'.

The Sungkai was held at Clubs and Socs and following that, Terawih was performed, led by our Religious Officer, Mujeeb.

I would like to wish all Muslims 'Happy Fasting' during this Holy month of Ramadhan.

Two man band

On a Saturday afternoon, we just can't resist looking at a drum and a guitar untouched. This is a two man band jamming session playing the song 'Sweet child O'mine'. We are still looking for a vocalist and two other guitar player =P. We rock.

Badminton Tourney

The first ever badminton tourney for the BSA was held, and honestly this event is quite popular among the BSA members. It was held last week, and I presume most of my colleagues have posted the tourney's pictures.

4 categories were competed: mens' single, womens' single, womens' double and mixed double. The champions for each category are: Raymond, Sharon, Zie and Shareen, and Dibah and Jon. There was no mens' double due to the limited number of BSA male members.

Thank you for those who participated and congratulation for those who have won.

The pressure was more tense for this final match.
