MAURINA HAS MIGRATED

Dear readers,

This is to inform everyone that Miss Maurina has moved to this web address;

http://maurina.wordpress.com


Yeay! See you there!

Exciting changes coming!

Ahhhhh! Guess what I did? :)

Turquoise and roses is moving!

New site is under construction.

Guess where I'll be!

Hint: Still free hosting though. Hee.

On a similar note

I was reading through this blog like I always do.

This post in particular struck a chord.

It is exactly what I have been saying all this while!


My comments on the billboard is still the same as ever.

Tourists come, tourist see, tourist think, "Thats where we'll get the weed"

I know what you are up to and it's really stupid


Oh! Lion Dance at the Mall!
(All this while, I thought it was a dragon!)
Ignorant woman.

Anyway, yes, the dance stopped people dead in their tracks.
Needless to say, a lot of Chinese shopowners were being very generous after that.
I actually got a further discount on an already severely discounted pair of pants!

All hail the lion!

Weirdos~

Quick quick! Click here!

Someone (who is pretty enraged about things) has cracked into his blog and actually had the TIME to concoct a reallllly long, ungrammatical and extremely unconvincing post.

Tsk tsk tsk. It reminds me of another incident with the Brudirect website.

Seriously how do these people find the time? Do you not have a life whatsoever? Do you not have anything else to do other than dwell on the past? Do you not have the concept of future time in your head?

Dear, dear. How very saddening. *dramatic sigh*

P/s: Shut up people. I don't stalk the royal family okay. I just happen to stumble upon his blog a few weeks ago. YES BY ACCIDENT!!!

Stairway to heaven

Pretty much happy with things.

Effectively living my dreams: hair up to my waist.

Updated my Friendster profile. (hehe)

Oh by the way, did you know that a trip to Temburong costs $6 ($12 return)? Imagine setting up a transport service that costs $5 per trip. Huahaha. You'll successfully run a monopoly.

I will update the blog with more interesting things soon. I need to find inspiration!

February will be Fabulous

Today I celebrate my femininity.
I thought my body forgot again this month that I am a woman.

:)
These are truly.
The painful bodilly miracles.

Nevermind that no one understands this post.
Maybe some who understands me will.
Because today,
I proudly celebrate my femininity.

Disillusioned

What if I suddenly realise that this is not neccesarily the right career path for me?

Am I really in the right position to feed hungry minds with knowledge that even I myself have trouble with sometimes?

Do they want a mere child to lead them into the real world?

What do you do in these bouts of disillusionment? Should you just drift away and drown in all this negativity? Should I think about why I chose this field in the first place?

Is financial gain worth all this?

Is financial gain all I am interested in?

What does one do in these bouts of disillusionment? Since when am I this cowardly?

Since
I
realised
that
it
is
not
all
about
me.

It is also about them.

God, you know I have nothing, I pray you will give me strength.

No mood to blog

I ate a freaking hell lot of barbecued lamb chops today (and at least 200 chicken wings).

Will be non-functional for at least a week.

Cholestrol overload.

Amazing what gets invented

Real life dog statues!
To scare away burglars and evil-minded sorts.

I quote my cousin, "kuyuk batu".

Fastfood Express


The image above is all new Mushroom Cheese Burger from Jollibee.


This image on the other hand is the scrumptious Double Mushroom Swiss from Burger King.

Hmm.

*brain processing a compare and contrast*

I WANT BURGER KING! *cries*

People flocking the mall for God knows what

My life. It has come to this. Snapping pictures of people I don't know.

...using a camera phone with bad resolution.

Sigh.

I'm in a Bad Mood

ALL MEN ARE *insert swear word of choice* IDIOTS!!!

Sigh.

There.

Nothing like men-bashing to cure a bad day.

Bottomless pit


THAT IS A LOT OF FOOD!
That can only mean one thing.

The TESLers went out to lunch!

Speechless

I asked, "Have you ever prayed for me?"

..and he replied, "Yes, so your heart will open and you will be filled with light"

What should one say next? Speechless.

You look like you like what you see

You Are Bold Red Boots

You like to put your most outrageous foot forward!

Spam is depressing

Who on earth invented spam?

I've googled that question and I now know who to send my contract killers off to assasinate: JAKOB NIELSEN.

On a side note, another DJ has taken over BruStu Radio. He is completely insane. Oh wait. No, it is a scene from West Side Story.

Back to spam, who the hell is ever going to open an email from flndrgthshjlak@ncdkqbgi.hl on "Pharmaceuticalx Products"?

...or another one from my friend i_kuleshav@invox.ru on

"Prescription-free Top Brands Available So|m|a v1aGr@ FLiU1Nay"

Tsk tsk tsk.

What good is spam? They're useless! Useless!



Kiss me

I HAVE NEVER IN MY LIFE ENJOYED RADIO THIS MUCH!

*face in awe*

Got a Black Magic Woman~

I don't know who the DJ at BruStu Radio is right now at this very moment and I cannot understand any word he/she is saying. But he/she is playing one of Santana's oldies.

THAT is a mark of great taste in music.

Good job!

Update: After I hit "Publish", Katie Melua's "My Aphrodisiac is You" came on. Congratulations, whoever you are you have become my favorite DJ on earth.

So please don't die.

Remember that I once had a wishlist?

Well, here's the next item.

A CHOCOLATE FOUNTAIN.



Just look at it in action here.

Arghhhh. The sight is so delicious, I almost want to bite my arm off.

MUST. HAVE. CHOCOLATE. FOUNTAIN.

CRAVE! CHOCOLATE!

By the fig and the olive

I do believe olives are an acquired taste.

But figs, I love. Every seed.

But why am I thinking of figs and olives when I should be sleeping?

Goodnight gentlemen.

Jetlagged and I haven't even been abroad.

Semester starts in a few hours.

Haven't slept a wink and its already 3am.

I have already laid out the concealer for my eyebags tommorow.

Must go back to normal sleeping pattern! Brunei mode starts now!

Carnivale of Couture #1

I missed it yet again! But in Saudi Arabia, it is still Friday, so I'm going to participate anyway.

The first Carnivale is about my Fashion Predictions for 2006.

I am obviously no expert and none of my predictions might even come true anyway. But here are my two cents.

I predict:

1. The return of various gold coloured details on garments.
2. Pink is out, so is black. In with the classic rich colours of olive green, eggplant purple, luscious ruby red, deep turquoise and earthy brown.
3. Dramatic eyes.
4. The return of the feminine body, and the demise of the waif skinniness.
5. A further emphasis on accessories especially shoes and bags.
6. END OF THE BOHO LOOK

Haha. Let us all wait and see whether I am good at predicting. Haha. So cocky.

Don't tell me love isn't true, it's just something that we do

Agh. That is the thousandth time Firefox crashed on me.

Why is it the better browser again?

Does anyone else encounter the same problem? Or am I the only one?

Mild photo frenzy

NO I do not have too many shoes!!!

At least FIVE of those are not mine anyway. They're obviously men's shoes.

There are more under the stairs and they are all mine muahahahahahah!

No, this is not a photoblog.


Dome.
The menu under the "Salad" section.
Did you know that Caesar Salad was named after the creator of the dressing: Chef Caesar Cardini?
Nope not THE OTHER CAESAR.
I didn't know that!

Just being sneaky

The hype has not quite died down yet.
