Most of us would think that 09.09.09 is an auspicious date,yes ? But not for me. Well, maybe it was an auspicious day to me somehow, simply because i get to wake up early? Like this early ?

I hate this number right now, like really hate.

I hate to see the dawn sky and knowing that i have to start working! Oh boy, i just have to keep reminding myself –Here we go again!!

Exactly like 2 weeks ago, i had to take a picture of what i was wearing! Trying to blend in some fun to the already boring journey? Did i tell you guys i hate traveling alone ?

pic02

So here i am again, wearing all black today, with my trusty white ankle boots and a backpack this time!!! That’s because i wanted to feel more “travel-ish” if there is a word like that. Hehehe…..

pic03

Taking a picture of my backpack ! *wink* Did i tell you i really love this backpack?? I think this has to be one of the most stylish backpack I’ve ever used!! hehehe

pic04

Adding some *bling* onto my look, a *bling* tights! If i’m not wrong, the brand should be ” Juice Orange”

On the plane again, overlooking the VERY HAZY city — MIRI

pic06

Can you feel the Haze??? And the air was really bad !!!

As soon as i landed, my “trusty” contractor drove me to a coffee shop somewhere around the city center, dropped me off and told me a lady will be meeting me in a short while. Sounds like a conspiracy movie ?? Well, waited for her for about 15 minutes!! Darn! She finally arrived! We both ordered something to eat, and then around another half an hour or so, she finally brought me to where I’m suppose to go! Which should be happening like an hour ago…..DUH~~

So here it is, my baby ~~~

The owner actually wanted a shop entrance inspired by their shop name, which in this case is — VALLETTA, having the 2 Ts as the entrance to the shop. How do you guys like it ??

pic08

A view from far.  Yeap, you certainly can see the name of the shop even 20 meters away.

pic09

A view of the interior of the shop.  I kinda think the pink color stand spoils the whole look of the shop!! Darn! That wasn’t my idea @ all, that pink shitty thing actually belongs to the shop owner! ( The shop owner better not be reading my blog….hehehe)

pic10

I was kinda happy with the workmanship of the loose furnitures. In this case, they were the display shelves. Tell me what do you guys think!!But for myself…i was really happy with the work!! So….i guess that’s all that matters !! hehe

Soon after I’m done with my checking, my contractor came out with the most outrageous suggestion…she wanted to bring me to Brunei and have Japanese food for lunch!!! I look @ my watch and it was already 11:00am!!….how the hell are we suppose to go over the Brunei and be back in time to catch my flight?? ( my flight was @ 2:20pm btw) When she was driving me on the way to her office to pick up some documents, we basically had given up the idea. And then, one of her colleague came into the picture. She insisted we go over to Brunei, because she already applied her 2 hours leave from the office.  Ok! Since that’s the case, we shall start the MISSION IMPOSSIBLE!

Without much thought, my contractor VROOM her way to Brunei!!

pic11

This is the road to Brunei…yeap packed with cars….and we were starting to get worried!! hahaha…but that is still not gonna stop us from going!!!

pic12

Still on Miri side…….

pic13

Reaching the Miri immigration…..and then you turn around the corner….there’s the Brunei immigration!

So…after having our passport stamped, we are on our way to BRUNEI!!

pic15

We were already on Brunei land @ this point…..hehehe

My contractor drove for another 15 minutes or so…….and we’ve reached our destination for lunch!! The Escapade Sushi!!

As TIME does matter to us @ this point….hehe…..we had to make a quick order…..we took some dishes from the Sushi train….and some we ordered….

This is scallop skin!! Marinated deliciously !!

pic17

Beans, octopus, scallops and scallop skin!!

This i ordered from the menu, it was a cucumber wrapped tuna salad TEMAKI !!

pic18

Errmm….i do think the cucumber wrap was a bit too thick!!! Gotta practice more on the knife skill there!! hehehe

This, i really LOVE!!!! The Cheese maki !!!!

pic19

OMG, the cheese was so creamy!!!! It was really worth a try !!

The rest of the things we ordered……i really don’t think this is for 3 persons……

pic20

More like 5 ???

And this is called Twist Maki……can you feel the twist?? I certainly cannot feel it lor….

pic21

After this scrumptious lunch……what’s next for us???

WE RUSHED BACK LIKE A MAD COW!!!!

And finally reaching the airport @ what time?? Have a guess….mmm..mmm…mmm……

@ 2:10PM!!!! 10 minutes before missing my flight!!

PHEW!!! Glad we made it!!!

And because of the bumpy ride back to Miri, i think I’m now suffering the aftermath…..I’m still feeling the bump right now!! Oh gosh!

Anyway, due to popular demand, i had to bring back a whole box of these peanut candies!!!! Can you count how many packets are they?

pic22

And this is what i bought from the shop i designed!!! hehehe…..must show my “little” support to them anyhow….

Pic00

Left to right: Eyebrow curler, eye brow plucker?Fake eye lash applicator, liquid eyeliner from Japan & stick on eyeshadow!!! How cool is that ??

Well, that’s all for my journey to MIRI…..will be traveling again pretty soon….this time, it’s not for work…hehehe…

Have a great 999 guys!!!

I’m soooooooo tired right now!!! Gotta go rest!!!
