Relationship with Computers

You know it is time to reassess your relationship with your computer when....

  1. You wake up at 4 o'clock in the morning to go to the bathroom and stop to check your email on the way back to bed.
  2. You turn off your computer and get an awful empty feeling, as if you just pulled the plug on a loved one.
  3. You decide to stay in college for an additional year or two, just for the free internet access.
  4. You laugh at people with 28.8 modems.
  5. You start using smileys :-) in your snail mail.
  6. You find yourself typing "com" after every period when using a word processor.com
  7. You can't correspond with your mother because she doesn't have a computer.
  8. When your email box shows "no new messages" and you feel really depressed.
  9. You don't know the gender of your three closest friends because they have nondescript screen name and you never bothered to ask.
  10. You move into a new house and you decide to "Netscape" before you landscape.
  11. Your family always knows where you are.
  12. In real life conversations, you don't laugh, you just say "LOL,LOL".
  13. After reading this message, you immediately forward it to a friend!
Journey into Golfaholicland - Played night golf for the first time at the Empire on Wednesday. Apart from one hole completely koyak and failure to get pass the ravine on Hole #6, the rest was alright. Even managed to get an honour for one of the holes. One of our flight had a Nike Sasquatch and we all tried it out. It was fantastic and much better than my Taylormade R7 Quad. If anyone out there is interested in a secondhand R7 Quad - let me know. The Sasquatch will be a great replacement. Today will be trying out the RBGCC for the first time. Everybody I mentioned always talk about how many balls I will lose. I lost 2 during the night golf at the Empire. I will let you know how many I have lost after the game.

Family Titles in Brunei

On my recent blog on Brunei's Time Line , one commentator got carried away and she started to talk about events in the past before moving on to nicknames. I enjoyed what she wrote and I offered for her to write a whole blog about it and I will put it up. But up to now, I have not received anything from her. So, Hajah Yati, if you are reading, my offer still stands. And for the rest of you readers out there, if you don't have your own blogsite, I am most ready to offer my site for the occassional blogs that you want to write - just make sure the blogs are Brunei related. You can set up your own blogsite once you feel comfortable. As someone later on commented, it will be nice to read someone else's blogs too on this website. At least on this one, you get an instant 300+ readers a day. So, please, my e-mail is admin@bruneiresources.com. Do write. I don't have much on nicknames to write on as suggested by Hajah Yati. I remembered when I was at school (primary), I have fri

Pulau Cermin - Brunei's Historic Island

Since I was already on the water visiting the Jong Batu at one end of the Brunei River, I thought I might as well go to the other end and visit the other historical site of Brunei, Pulau Cermin. Pulau Cermin as many Brunei historians know it is the site of the temporary palace of Sultan Abdul Hakkul Mubin, the 13th Sultan of Brunei and is the site of the only civil war in Brunei History. Sultan Abdul Hakkul Mubin took the throne after assasinating Sultan Muhammad Ali. It was quite a bloody time in Brunei history and I remembered one classic book written by Yura Halim entitled "Mahkota Berdarah" regarding the episode. Pulau Cermin - view from the River In a nutshell, Sultan Abdul Hakkul Mubin was the Bendahara when his son was killed by the son of Sultan Muhammad Ali. He requested that his son's death be avenged but Sultan Muhammad Ali denied him. So Bendahara Abdul Mubin went amok killing a few people at the palace and with his followers took the Sultan and killed him (No
