RBAF 46th Anniversary

This year, Royal Brunei Armed Force (RBAF) celebrates its 46th Anniversary. The performances are more or less the same as previous years but this this it was held at the Hassanal Bolkiah National Stadium. Usually held at Padang SOAS. The reason of the change of location is maybe because of the exhibition. Well, maybe they wanna put things in one area so it saves time. One good thing I can see is that many people can watch the event there since more seats are available.

I took some pix of the event but this time was a bit difficult. I could not take close-up pix of those who were performing even though I used the maximum "zoom" (at 300mm) and it wasn't good enough. Unfortunately, I didn't go to see the exhibition since I have other thing to take care of.

The Moon

I read from yahoo news about some facts of the Moon (Read it here). It explains what it means by "Once in a blue moon". We know that the Moon makes a complete cycle around the Earth in about 28 days. So there is a chance to have two "full moons". It says that the second full moon is usually blue. Well I never noticed that. Hmmm...maybe next time :p



It's not hard to take pix of the Moon but hard to take really nice pix of the Moon. As long as the camera has a long "zoom" and with recommended ISO 100 and with usual high shutter speed and I usually use the largest aperture. The pic above was taken with full "zoom" and I cropped the pic to remove most the "black" sky in the pic. I guess I need to buy another lens hehe.

Korean Drama - "My Girl"

This is a korean drama that I watched a few months ago. I like the storyline and the characters. From what I know, this drama was actually to promote tourism in Korea. Some scene were taken in Jeju Island and also in one of the tallest building in South Korea...KLI 63 Building. About the drama, some parts were quite funny and as we go on the situation becomes different. That I cannot expose. You just need to watch it hehe. I hope I can go to Korea one day.

OGDC, Seria - Global Warming opening ceremony

Actually this is the longest distance I've travelled alone so far. Being a BSBian, I have no reasons to go to Belait except when i go to Miri. Usually I travelled with a company, as a passenger. Maybe it's time for me to be independent since I drive on my own. Anyway, it takes about 1 and a half hour to reach OGDC from my home. I usually drive fast hehe.

I met Sunardi and Aming there. I brought them to the parking area at the back since the front parking area is occupied by a car exhibition The opening ceremony was simple and quick. And they set up a gallery for the public to see. It's just to make us aware about this Global Warming situation. Since we Bruneians use oil n gas as our main source of energy. I think it's good to have this kind of exhibition. Maybe we cannot stop this easily but at least we make an effort to spread the words.

Anyway, the car exhibition I mentioned was actually Lexus cars, just outside the building and I managed to get into some cars to feel the comfort and luxury of the cars, since I know I'm not gonna buy these cars. Not that I don't like it...well, its about $$$ hehe. Then Sunardi treated us some food before we got back to our cars (thanx for that :p).



Charcaol & Grill - Bufday Partee

Not really a birthday party...just another dinner with friends who celebrate their birthdays. Not to forget they treated us for that nite (thanx...hehehe). As usual, with surprised birthday cake as you can see below. Anyway, it was fun and I enjoyed it.

Just some pixes

I don't know what else to post coz there is nothing interesting to share. So here I am...going to post these photos, mostly cats. You may notice 'lomo effect' in all the pictures his this time. I just wanted to try how it goes. No improvement in my photography skills. I dun even have time to touch my camera as much as i would love to.


Oh yea...mayb I have some thing to talk about for now. Maybe about TV series?

  • As a fan of 'Smallville', I've watched all the episodes until the latest from season 6. No comments about the series.
  • Next is 'Heroes', another great TV series. Still in season 1 but managed to become one of the best TV series in the US. Its coming to the season finale in a few weeks time. I just hope all ends well. Lots of questions in my mind and i need some answers. The only way to get the answers is to watch them all.
  • I just finished watching 'Prison Break'. I watched both seasons 1 and 2 in less than 2 weeks or maybe just one week. Well, I really can't remember :P. Anyway, season 3 is coming this august. I like the part about Scofiled (the main character) created the tatoos such as the words 'cute poison' and 'bolshoi booze'. Can't wait to watch more.
  • Lost? Yes 'lost'! I mean the TV series 'Lost' One of my favourites too. But I've never watched it in ages since Season 2 episode 4. Maybe I will catch up soon.
  • Yesterday I started watching 'Supernatural'. I think I'm gonna like this too. Just finished the second episode. I don't know when I wanna continue the rest when life has been busy lately.
