About three weeks ago, Luke Richie, Managing Editor of Schmap Guides invited me to submit this photo Mona took of me when we were shopping at Dorothy Perkins to their Schmap London Guide. It was a silly photo, I was grinning like an idiot..nonetheless, almost everything I had on me was from DP, except maybe my bracelet and my denim sling bag. Anyways, it got published and I'm the only one who submitted a photo that wasn't a building for the "Stores & Arcades" section (at least that's as far as I can tell anyway?). Et viola my photo is up!
The wedding I went to over the weekend was a Malaysian one, or at least it was for the Bride and her family.. except it was done Bruneian style, i.e. you eat at a set time. haha. Tutong traditions were also thrown in, like the adat basuh kaki where anyone in line can get a bowl of water and "wash" the bride and groom's feet by pouring water over their feet. Usually just for jokes (especially among my own cousins), they grab a bottle of kikapoo or pepsi and pour THAT over their feet. lol.

I had a very busy day yesterday. I went out at about 10am and picked up Yusri and Jor from Yus' house. Apparently, my driving is very similar to Syaheir or so Yus claims. Haha, so basically I drove from my place to Beribi and then to Jerudong where we got quotations for our volunteer shirts, and then back to Gadong to get more quotations because the other shop in Jerudong where Yus usually goes to had shut down.

We walked around in the Mall and I gave proposals out to certain shops, who hopefully will get back to me soon. Then the three of us went off to UBD's male hostel and had lunch. The rest of the LufBru Committee members were late, showing up at 2:30pm instead of the 2pm I set. :P Typical. We only met up for an hour because we had just a few things to discuss, and we'll be having another meeting next week once Lina and Mus are in Brunei. Hao's car had a flat, somehow a screw ended up in his tyre. The rest of us, except Zaed and Fahmi who went home, went to check out the UBD Gym.

Once the meeting was over, Yus, Jor and I went back to Jerudong to confirm our order. I rushed home to change, dragging them along with me. Theeen.. I got dropped off at Fol's. Saidon (Fol's little brother) and I went to play basketball with BBB and Wira's team, JC at the UBD Gym.

Today, I'm going to tutor Saidon about Maths and later in the afternoon I'm going to go play netball with team Kirana, team Jade and some LufBru girls at (again) UBD Gym. I should actually shower soon, I woke up about half an hour ago.. I'm just hoping I could stay home and chill.

My second year results will be published at the end of this week, I am slightly worried because they didn't go as well as they should have. Plus, my exams were a bit of a bitch, so maybe they'll put that in to consideration? Hah.

We had our first basketball match on Sunday against Teik GoldSmiths. We were doing okay in the first quarter and then went into shambles in the next. By the time we pulled ourselves together it was the final quarter and we were lagging behind by a lot of points. It was a good game nonetheless. I had a great time even though all of us had only met two more of our BBB members on that day. Yesterday's practice was an improvement or so Boon says. I don't know, I haven't played in a long time and my mind seems to be set on netball. I suppose I ought to be table to distinguish between the two but aahh, should be okay lah.

Anyway, shower now.

lots of love,
yasmin.

ps. will bring my camera today at netball for photos..haha :P
