I live in Brunei and this is a long public holiday... We have 2 days off for Chinese New year and Hijrah (the new year according to the muslim calender), one happening after another. A lot of people are looking forward to this break plus that it co-incides with January's pay check and also the annual bonus. Life and shopping in Brunei is crazy at the moment.

The roads are congested i am sure... People rushing to shop because they have money and there are bazaars everywhere... then there are the people celebrating the chinese new year... buying what they need and others buying gifts to bring to the open houses... AGAIN... there is HIJRAH and the mulims celebrating it in a big way... MORE shopping... Not to mention weddings... People just cannot resist public holidays to have weddings...

To me, this holiday is boring because i haven't planned anything... All i do is sit at home, watch TV and be bored... eat, sleep and poo. I should have planned what i wanted to do, so i wont be deadly bored. There are plenty of books to read, and god knows i brought work home to do, but i just cannot bring myself to carry them out. I am so bored that i don't get out of bed until it is very late.

Do you know a lot of us get married at an early age without knowing what you are getting into... Hence the divorce rate in Brunei is on the high.... They have also failed to pay attention during the pre-wedding talk hence not knowing what they are getting into, the laws or their rights... I think its such a stupid thing to do since you pay a lot of money for the weddding itself, you might as well try and make it work... But then, If you are in a failing or abusive marriage, then i suggest you get out of it. If you don't, you may suffer or worse, if you have kids... they are the one that would suffer the most! Fine if you want to try therapy, but being wise is knowing when to call it a day!

Why am i talking about marriage??? I wanted to talk about glowing... but not on this entry i suppose or it would ruin everything with its negativity...

This is the year of the dog and it is supposed to be a fairly good year for the snake and that is me... My health may be a bit "not good" but when is it ever 100%??? he he he he... and i may get into trouble with the law... somethinng to do with my driving... so those of you who sits in my car, i insists you wear a safty belt. and i was said to keep to my budget and not to spend so much on my loved ones... so sisters... sorry... no free anything this year!!! and lastely, apparently someone likes the snake and have so for sometime but is afraid to tell them... CLUES were said to be given... and have to be interpreted... so whom ever like the snakes ... out with it as this snake is a bit though to interpret signs...

AND BURT... it also said that we should worry less about our loved ones as they can take care of themselves... and it is a good advice for you and me to heed... kind of gives ourselves a break and not worry over every cough... the horoscope also said that we have "fear" of makinng mistakes especially that of our past... but then, there is no guarentee or a sure thing every time... risks are everywhere... we are not to rush into things IF we are not ready... *hugs* and the above applies to you too, you know... and since you have the new book, you can update me on what is supposed to happen soon...

The snake is most compatiple with an Ox and Rooster. But not so with the Tiger, Pig, Horse and Monkey. Isn't this very interestinng to learn... There are many sites where you can find out about your chinese horoscopes as well as compatibility... Its just interesting to read even if you do not believe in it... *wink*

okay... ani saja dulu for now... kan banyak cakap pun I would be rambling very much... and ani pun sudah cakap kosong saja... oh well.. happy reading... next time, i would write about something i am sure everyone would love to know about... and perhaps be suprised... including myself... its self-learning experience....
