..rantings..

Wow, it's the weekend already! This week has gone by quite quickly I have to say, while there have been ups and downs throughouts the first half of this week, I have to say that in the end, everything has turned out fine and I am feeling quite happy and looking forward to the weekend. (I'm even lookin forward to the work! - while I am most definitely tired and I tend to get a bit lazy towards the end of terms n all that..I seem to have new found motivation.. )

I'm still counting down the days to the December holidays though, to everyone who's going to be in London, I think I'm gonna be over on the 16th/17th, as the last day of term for me is on the 15th! I can't wait to see everyone again, I miss you all! Can't wait, can't wait, can't wait - almost only 2 more weeks to go, and I'm pretty sure those two weeks well go by in a flash ;) In the mean time, since its 11:15 pm here and I'm prettttyyy tired, I'm gonna head off to bed, but before that, a few more pics.. and the results for which super hero I am.. I have to say, the results were quite... shocking as I am in no way 'lean' OR 'muscular' ahah although I AM feminine (I don't care what you say! haha) Man Utd (Blue) and Sheffield Utd warming up... great experience that was.. unfortunately I don't have a whole load of pics of this because apparently we weren't allowed to take pictures during the match =s why not..? anyone know..?

Me, at the freshers ball, there was an oxygen bar, so we all tried it out lol.. quite fun..

Beautiful Cambridge... made a random trip to Cambridge with a friend during my 2nd week...

Aaaannd here, is the superhero result.. while I am quite dubious about the stuff about being 'lean' and 'muscular'.. I have to admit it's better than what Nana got.. haha The Hulk.. but I thought green was your colour darling ;) lol

You are Supergirl

Supergirl 82% Superman 80% Robin 72% Iron Man 70% Wonder Woman 62% Catwoman 60% The Flash 55% Spider-Man 50% Green Lantern 50% Batman 45% Hulk 30%

Lean, muscular and feminine. Honest and a defender of the innocent.

..Everybodys Free to Wear Sunscreen..

...Yea, I know I've already posted up something already, but I came across this poem.. well, more like I searched for it, but it's a great poem.. One of my favourites definitely, and makes me feel somewhat better whenever I'm feeling down ;)

Everybodys Free to Wear Sunscreen - by Baz Luhrman

Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of ’99

If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be

it. The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by

scientists whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable

than my own meandering

experience…I will dispense this advice now.

Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth; oh never mind; you will not

understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded.

But trust me, in 20 years you’ll look back at photos of yourself and

recall in a way you can’t grasp now how much possibility lay before

you and how fabulous you really looked….You’re not as fat as you

imagine.

Don’t worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as

effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing

bubblegum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that

never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm

on some idle Tuesday.

Do one thing everyday that scares you

Sing

Don’t be reckless with other people’s hearts, don’t put up with

people who are reckless with yours.

Floss

Don’t waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you’re ahead, sometimes

you’re behind…the race is long, and in the end, it’s only with

yourself.

Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you

succeed in doing this, tell me how.

Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.

Stretch

Don’t feel guilty if you don’t know what you want to do with your

life…the most interesting people I know didn’t know at 22 what they

wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year

olds I know still don’t.

Get plenty of calcium.

Be kind to your knees, you’ll miss them when they’re gone.

Maybe you’ll marry, maybe you won’t, maybe you’ll have children,maybe

you won’t, maybe you’ll divorce at 40, maybe you’ll dance the funky

chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary…what ever you do, don’t

congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself either – your

choices are half chance, so are everybody else’s. Enjoy your body,

use it every way you can…don’t be afraid of it, or what other people

think of it, it’s the greatest instrument you’ll ever own..

Dance…even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.

Read the directions, even if you don’t follow them.

Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly.

Get to know your parents, you never know when they’ll be gone for

good.

Be nice to your siblings; they are the best link to your past and the

people most likely to stick with you in the future.

Understand that friends come and go,but for the precious few you

should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and

lifestyle because the older you get, the more you need the people you

knew when you were young.

Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard; live

in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.

Travel.

Accept certain inalienable truths, prices will rise, politicians will

philander, you too will get old, and when you do you’ll fantasize

that when you were young prices were reasonable, politicians were

noble and children respected their elders.

Respect your elders.

Don’t expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund,

maybe you have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one

might run out.

Don’t mess too much with your hair, or by the time you're 40, it will

look 85.

Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who

supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of

fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the

ugly parts and recycling it for more than

it’s worth.

But trust me on the sunscreen…

Note: Sorry, I have sorta realised that it's not really coming out the way I wanted it to.. but o well.. you get the idea hehe

..pics galore..

Hey guys! I've finally gotten the pics off my camera!! (yaaayyy!) SO, I'm not gonna say anything for now, altho, i probably will later one when I'm feeling more pensive. I'm supposed to be doing work right now so I have to make this quick anyway ;) Enjoy!

Me and Becky.. lol taken on sat night. and what a fun filled night it was ;) I won't say anything more than that. lol.

Amy and I..

Alex, Sam and moiii

Randoms on the street.... haha well no actually they live in the same building as me.

Shocking! haha I don't know why I look so shocked...

Last but not least, the view from my room. quite nice no?


These aren't all the pics that I've gotten off my camera, but there were too many to actually put up all of them ;) Sigh you know what I miss most of all though, how back home we would all just loiter around and do anything.. just chill at a cafe or walk around aimlessly around wherever. lol. Yea, while it probably seemed unbeliveably boring, it's funny how almost everyone here always has a purpose when they go somewhere.. I kinda like how we all never really had a purpose of going somewhere.. just simply to hang out lol.

Sigh, I am quite depressed now. Not really coz of anything, just simply coz I've been having to talk a friend through a rough patch i.e. heartbreak. And well, it's made me really miss having someone there, and the fact that it made me really feel the void that needs to be filled in my life right now. Now, in normal circumstances, I don't really think about all this that much, but just because it's been brought back I suddenly feel quite lonely. O well, it'll pass. I'm not one to actually go looking because well, I've said this before, and I'll say it again, and however more times that it needs to be said, I am a firm believer of "things happen for a reason" and those that come unexpectedly really ARE the most worthwhile. Patience is key. All I can say for now is that nothing is really a coincidence, it might seem like a coincidence at the time, but everything has repurcussions, good and bad, sometimes after a short while after the event has happened, maybe a long while after the event has happened. It may be that the 'repercussion' is tiny and you may not notice it at all. BUT it may be the case that it has a large impact on your life. So whatever happens in life, don't take it for granted. Savour it.

Lol, I was looking through some of my older posts, and I was thinking to myself, WOW... I think waaaaaay too much lol!

Anyway I'm thinking of taking a power nap. There is no way I'm going to get very much else done tonight.

Later =) xxx

..in a feverish state..

G'day to everyone, ugh as you have probably guessed from my title for today's post, i am SICK.. it's horrible.. you know that feeling where you feel sensitive all over and your stomach is going a little bit crazy and well you just ache everywhere as well.. that's how I feel.. not a good way to be feeling... but yea, I just finished the IB presentation that was on youtube.. great stuff.. it's made me feel all wistful and a bit sad.. yet, happy.. Don't worry Rez, I don't think anyone could've done a better job than you. And I've still got you and puss booked for when I get married and want something like that lol. ;)

Well, it's approaching the end of the first half of semester one, and as I have previously noted I have not lost my bad habit of procrastination and laziness that seems to overcome me whenever its the end of a term.. =s not good, not good at all... o well.. I wish I had more interesting things to say in this post, but I don't think I do.. hmm...

All I have to look forward to right now is seeing everyone in December when I'm in London and my trip to Norway in Easter.. I might even be hopping over to Venice in Easter as well.. see how things turn out first hehe.. hmm.. I don't have any pics to share with you guys right now, so sorry =( oh btw, to anyone who has pics of me, I doubt any of you actually do, but namely the ones that were for the presentation.. like the one of me in the purple shirt, please could you send em to me? just send it to my gmail account --> nura45@gmail.com

Argh, I don't have anything else to say for now.. maybe later when I've surfed the net enough since I have an abundant amount of time on my hands and don't feel well enough to do any work and come across something interesting.. hehe

Till Later.. I love you all!

..why is it?..

*sigh* it is another late night for me, even though I've got a 9 o'clock lecture tomoro but I can't help it.. I was doing work, then decided to watch familyguy for awhile and now I'm quite awake.. although, I'll probably go to bed soon.. but I've got some thoughts so I thought I'd just make a quick blog...

oh btw, props to Mervin (Nana's Stallion baby or something or other lol) because he has got one awesome site, full of thoughtful stuff that well, is just really beautiful ;) You go Merv... x

I've just been in a sort of.. well.. intellectual.. (for want of a better word, although i suppose random could fit in as well haha) about whether you pronounce the letter 'H' haitch or aitch... and I personally think its HAITCH.. because... well, the letter 'H' is supposed to give off that 'h' sound... so... logically shouldn't it be HAITCH and NOT aitch.. sheesh.. hahaha o well...

Anyway, to the more serious stuff thats been plaguing my mind for the past couple of minutes... probably brought on by this site that Merv sent to me way back and it just really touched me.. basically it was about love. Yes, love, that thing that manages to touch your insides so profoundly once you've met the right person.. and its not just your insides.. its your everything.. it touches your senses, your mind.. it goes up to a physical level as well as spiritual.. every touch, every word they say touches you in a way that no other normal person could.. and it makes you go crazy even though you keep telling yourself "stop it!"... What is it that draws us to our eventual significant others? and not on a level that makes you attracted to them on simply a physical level... why? What is it about a person that draws you to them? What if you've never met this individual that makes your heart beat faster and insides giddy and yet... there's that unexplainable something... from merely talking to them? Is there an element of 'fate' that inevitably draws two people together, and sometimes drives them apart? Were you meant to meet that person to learn how to love and give.. and understand... before being driven apart to meet the next person that could teach you more in this crazy experience called life and eventually be 'the one'...? or not and is put there to teach you another valuable lesson in preparation for the amazing experience that you will eventually have with the person that you were put on this World for...? What of the people that are lucky enough to meet that person straight off? Now, I say lucky enough because you will never have to deal with the gut wrenching pain that is heart break.. although in some respects you could argue that by having it that way, you are missing out on the unbelievable experience of loving someone unconditionally, learning to love someone unconditionally..experiencing the heartbreak, getting over it and realising that forever valuable lesson that they were put there to teach you and loving them forever for it... and then finally meeting the one and giving them all that you've got to give...

They say that the most awesome and invaluable experiences are those that come from the unexpected... As someone that has experienced that once, I fully agree. Nothing could feel better than having something suddenly happen out of the blue, and then after awhile realising that that 'thing' was what you have been waiting for... the 2nd piece of the puzzle...the thing that is meant to fill you up just that little bit more.. *sigh* questions, questions.. and no definite answer.. But I truly think, that what was meant to be, will be... and that.. being spontaneous isn't always a bad thing... especially when it comes to unexplainable feelings.. I think that once feelings get to the unexplainable.. that's when you just have to let go and let it lead you to wherever it wants to... irregardless of whether people think it's totally crazy.. or not. Once feelings get unexplainable.. you'll realise that almost everything it leads you to.. tends to be a bit crazy... But that's the best part of it! I don't feel annoyed or whatever being in this position. I feel lifted. I revel in the craziness that is life, I am revelling in the spontaneous and the crazy... because for some reason I have the need, the longing in me to do so... at this point in time, I don't know why.. but it will all come clear when the time comes.. It takes faith. And I have faith in everything that is to come.

I write this while listening to the magic that is Ludovico Einaudi. Some of the most beautiful piano pieces I think. Totally thought-inspiring. I recommend the songs Le onde and I Giorni. Beautiful.

Goodnight everyone! xox

..all I want for Christmas..

Hey everyone! now, I know its a bit early to be quoting christmas songs, but hey, I like that song!! plus, there is something which would be all I want for christmas.. but I'm not gonna tell you guys... just yet... =p hehe... hmm.. nothing really THAT interesting has happened during this weekend for me I suppose.. as I predicted, I missed the meteor shower, although, I had a dream about it.. which I KNOW doesn't count but hey, just thought I'd mention that lol. *sigh* I wish I did though, but I was way too tired and I didn't hear my alarm to wake me up hehe.. Today has been a mediocre day, woke up.. did some work, organising.. which is good coz now I'll feel prepared for next week and hopefully will be more productive than I have been lately.. =s

But enough of that boring stuff.. hehe for all you football fans out there, guess who got to watch Manchester Utd. v Sheffield Utd LIVE at Bramall Lane... you got it.. YOURS TRULY =D i have to say, although I'm not a HUGE football fan, although I was quite into it during the world cup, but usually, I don't keep up with the premierships, but yea... I went to watch Manchester Utd v Sheffield Utd on Saturday.. and I have got to say.. It was AWESOME! the atmosphere and everything! with everyone chanting and all that... (it was absolutely freezing though) it was great, for those of you in the UK, I have to say, try and catch a game if you can!! I was a bit starstruck actually being able to see the manchester utd players up close and personal.. okay, well, it wasn't UP CLOSE but you get what I mean. Me and my friends managed to get good seats behind the net n stuff, and it was even more cool coz they were at a cheaper price coz we're students =p and OMG, I don't care if people boo at Cristiano Ronaldo, I LOVE HIM. and he's only 21.. that gives me a chance!! haha. Unfortunately, we (Sheffield Utd... hey, I'm at the uni, i gotta support the home team! hehe) lost, 2-1 but we scored the first goal!! Man U could've scored another one and won 3-1 but Ronaldo kinda screwed up a really easy goal.. both goals were scored by Wayne Rooney and I don't know who scored the Sheffield goal lol.

Okay enough football talk... I'll try post up photos soon.. the problem is that I don't have the cable for my camera so I'm still trying to think of how I can load the pics onto my computer.. Hopefully I can find someone with a card reader. In other Nur news, I'm not going to Norway this December anymore, but I'm targetting Easter. Seriously, I am going to do anything to go to Norway because I've got my heart set on it.. Ern might be going to Venice in Easter so my plan is maybe to go to Norway for 2 -3 days then meet him and his friend up in Venice. I might ask a couple of my friends from here to come so it'll be one nice big group.. any of you interested, PLEASE let me know.. It'll be fun!! we should explore Europe since we have the chance y'kno?

But yea, I'm planning on making my way down to london on the 18th since my holidays start on the 17th and I'm not stickin' around here because all my friends are going back to their respective homes around the UK for the december holidays... so hello people!! We should plan something, meet up! Christmas shopping will be great!! the sales here are awesome during christmas.

Hmm.. I think that's bout it really, I'm sorry that it's kinda boring and I have no pics, but hopefully I'll be able to get some up soon, oh and just as an afternote, any of you addicted to familyguy? hehe well I am.. and like me, you will be too lazy to actually go out and buy the dvds or whatever.. hehe check out this site: http://www.rapetheweb.com/cartoons/familyguy.php if you don't know what family guy is..SHAME ON YOU.. haha I'm addicted to it now.. i LOVE IT.... hehe anyway goodnight guys, hope all of you had a great weekend... x

And here is Nur's song list for the week: Mr. Brightside - The Killers, Rafiki by Zap Mama, *All I Want for Christmas - Mariah Carey (or the one from love actually is good too)*, Drops of Jupiter by Train, Heaven - DJ Sammy, *Set you free - N Trance*, Be Without You - Mary J. Blige, Baby I love your way - Big Mountain (or UB40), Give it up to me - Sean Paul & Keisha Cole, *Kiss from a Rose - Seal*, and if you're with your significant other and need some loving this is a good one! --> Between the sheets - Isley Brothers..hmm and a few trance songs that I can't think of the names right now... ENJOY!

..you did NOT just say that..

Salutations everyone, hope everyone is doing grreeaatt... I know I am ;) well.. apart from a few ANNOYING instances but.. let's save the bitching for later haha =p Anyhoo, Norway plans are going full steam ahead which is good, but whether or not it is actually going to happen is still a bit blurry.. o well.. planning it is enough to get me a bit hyper lol.

..It is getting SUPER cold here and I haven't seen the sun for a couple of days now =( which sucks because I LOVE my sun! Those of you in Brunei or any where in Asia for that matter don't know how lucky you are... It's quite depressing when you've spent most of your life in sunshine and suddenly you don't get it for long periods of time.. there is actually a medical term for this depression you can get when you don't get enough sunlight and its called SAD - sunlight (somthing) depression hahaah alright i don't kno what SAD stands for but i DO know that it IS called SAD.. lol oh, and just to add something fun into my blog for once, if you're bored and have an infinite amount of time on your hands, head on to www.myheritage.com <-- that is GOOD fun! Basically, you put a pic onto this thing, and it comes up with people that you apparently resemble or look like.. lol so far I have gotten a whole load of err either korean or japanese singers and actresses lol and even Aishwarya Rai... LOL... for some of the pics you can actually see some resemblances.. but either way, if you don't have anything to do and want some fun, that's the site to go to for now ;)

*she did NOT just say that!* okay, so lately I've been working on a group presentation that I had to do for public law.. which was presented today.. my group did really well, and personally, I think I did alright, all those presentations we had to do in IB really paid off!!! So anyway, there was this particular girl in my group who shall NOT be named.. lets call her A - and she will forever be on my list of people that I absolutely cannot get along with no matter how I try and is just plain CRUEL. First of all, i got annoyed with her in the beginning coz she kept on making excuses as to why she couldn't get certain pieces of work done blablabla my laptop isn't with me blablabla.. and we ALL know that is NOT a valid excuse because the university supplies more than enough computers for all the students to use... and "oh it's not fair for me to present because I'm bad and get really nervous at presenting..." argh! AND on top of that... she's one of those people that are really good at making back handed comments.. especially towards me... the other day.. I had my gym clothes on because I wanted to go to the gym and she said:

A: Oh, are you going to the gym?
Me: Yea i was thinking of going...
A:OH, yea that's really good, someone like you should go because you need to keep fit... I don't need to go because it wouldn't do anything because I'm so slim..

Say it with me people... WHAAAAAATTT... now, I don't have the perfect body but.. there is NO need for you to say that.. it was horrible.. that really got me down.. but that doesn't compare to what she said to me today:

Me: I haven't had lunch yet.. can we go get something to eat before we do our presentation? Im really hungry..
A: Yea, Nur likes to eat *evil laugh*

ARGH! do you know how upsetting that is for someone to say that to you? :'( Oh, she is going DOWN I tell you... DOWN!

*breathe in...breathe out*

Phew.. now that I've regained my composure.. what else is there..? oo oo! apparently, for those of you in the UK in general... if you're interested, on the 19th of November (Sunday) in the early morning - 4:45 am to be exact.. there is going to be a METEOR SHOWER...!! and if you go out to see it, you will be able to see millions of shooting stars.. I think that should be really awesome.. I think i might go with a couple of friends.. if we can get up early enough lol.. although if we're out partying it shouldn't be a problem ;) if i do, i shall take loads of pics... I'm so excited!!!!! Hehe.

Anyhoo, I'm gonna go out soon to look for a costume as there will be a Super Heroes Party in the bar tomoro night in conjuction with the charity for children in need.. I'm possibly thinking of going as WonderWoman.. LOL... but if my friend Matt ends up going as the Red Ranger from power rangers that I am SO definitely going to go as Yellow Ranger.. lol.. this should be good fun.. hehe anyway till next time..

Tata.. x

..Norway, here I come..

Soo.. here we are once again, ready to delve into the oh-so-dramatic filled and interesting life of Nur.. haha nah just kidding. Today has been quite an interesting day.. while unproductive.. hehe i guess unproductive in the sense that I did NOT get any work done whatsoever.. lol.. instead I resumed my position as the love doctor and gave a friend some lurve advice.. haha i was on fire!!
So anyhoo, on Sunday it was one of my friend's (James') birthday and so we had a party in their hall and it was great fun with a shisha n everything.. *sigh* reminds me of old times in Brunei.. haha i can't believe i just said that.. "old times" lol. and I'll post the pics from that later..In other Nur news, you will be glad to know that while putting up my laundry just now I managed to hit myself on the lip with my hairdryer... YES, I'll repeat, i managed to hit MYSELF on the lip with my hairdryer... How you ask? well let's look at the details... so there I was, hanging up my laundry, I only have one stand so for some I put them on hangers and hang them on my curtain railing and when I was trying to reach something, I stepped on my suitcase which is one of those plasticky ones and so it went in a bit... So I proceeded to fix it and unzipped the thing and pushed on it from underneath to get it back into shape... of course, my hairdryer happened to be on the top of it and when the suitcase popped back into shape the hairdryer jumped up, hitting me, on the lip. LOL! Somehow I always manage to get myself into situations such as those where everything happens horribly perfectly (if that makes sense)... =s

*Anyone interested in going to Norway?* haha there is quite a story that comes along to this, but I am planning (in my head for now) to make a trip to Norway, on a eurotrip-esque mission. Anyone willing to join me on my journey, please let me know, although I cannot guarantee that I will be with you very much once we hit Norway. lol. If you're wondering, yes this is another one of those Nur episodes which always manage to come out very amusing yet at the same time you think "Only you Nur.. could get yourself into something like this...". Ever since I've been here, I've been realising more and more why people say that to me. It's crazy. But hey, you only live once right? SO this is the time to do EVERYTHING... well maybe not everything but sometimes the least expected things turn out to be the most worthwhile ya know? and it never hurts to explore the possibilities of things and take the road untaken.. or whatever the phrase was in that poem by Robert Frost. I think it's the road not taken..... but yea! hehe.. there you go...

I am speculating that tonight is gonna be one of those nights where I'm scrambling to get everything done.. very reminscent of IB.. you'd think that by now after going through all that.. the tears and everything that I would've learnt my lesson.. apparently not. =s I don't think anyone ever REALLY learns their lesson.. unless its something outrageous like..... i learnt my lesson not to stick my finger in my nose while having glue on it because it got stuck in my nose. hahah how i came up with that i don't know... well actually its in that Roald Dahl book Matilda.

Anyhoo, here are some pictures. Laters!

..late night thoughts..

Alright, so this post isn't REALLY about late night thoughts but I've just finished reading a booring chapter on the European Union and I can't really sleep.. plus I've got a splitting headache.. probably induced by the night before.. *hehe* but yea, thought I'd put some pics up

(above) taken when I visited Nana and everyone in London... it was just like old times ;) which means that we all had dinner with lots of cigarettes involved.. lol

(below) taken at the fresher's ball.. on the red carpet.. YES they had a red carpet.. and YES that's red masking tape on it.. =s haha






(above) taken on the 5th November - Bonfire night.. we went to watch fireworks at a carnival at this big stadium... it was amaaazzzinnnggg... apparently there were heart shaped fireworks but i missed it... now, how do you manage to miss something like that...??

(above) taken again during the freshers ball.. the theme was "Bond" it was cool.. they had an ice sculpture made into a 007.. and... they had an oxygen bar.. and and and... they had some character from one of the bond movies which I didn't know about but everyone else did =s and and..... hmmm... yeaaaa... haha




And lastly, but DEFINITELY not least, the laser lights at this club called Gatecrasher.. possibly one of the best clubs here.. Thursday - student night! its beeeoootiful...


I actually a few more photos from the freshers ball but I can't be bothered to put them up just because... hehe.. and plus.. I'm feeling a bit grumpy because of my headache.. =( It's funny how now that I've started to write again I can't stop.. hehe although, at the moment I don't really know what to say except PLEASE MAKE THIS HEADACHE GO AWAAAAAYY =( and I don't have minyak kapak with me here... *sigh* I should probably go to sleep now because I've got a 9 0' clock lecture tomoro morning.. but.. I can't! I need someone to talk to and make me sleep.. haha...

You know what is the most ANNOYING thing in the whole entire world? Public law text books.. I mean, you think that in school we simply put in big words just to make ourselves sound super extra smart...? but this is taking it to a whole new level... while I was doing work just a few moments ago, (I was reading a public law article on the European Union) and I was STUMPED on this one sentence which read something like "this nomenclature is misleading..."... say it with me... Whaaaaattt the (insert expletive here)....??? NOMENCLATURE? what is a nomenclature... and I'm serious, I just sat there for a few minutes thinking... nomenclature? is it REALLY necesary to use that word? and then I decided to go onto word and check out what it was on the thesaurus... and do you kno what it actually meant?? it is another word for CLASSIFICATION... *slaps forehead and groans* sheesh...

Hahah anyway I better get to bed... Laters xox

..sexuality is the key to ecstasy..

Why hullo.. (is it me you're looking for..? haha if you didn't know, its a SONG k?) and if you're wondering about the title, I couldn't think of anything, plus I'm listening to a song called sexuality and that's what they're saying.. lol. But on a more serious note, in light of the song, I reckon that there are some aspects to it that may be true.. and it doesn't necessarily have to mean sexuality like sex, it could just mean being intouch with your own sexuality, your sensuality, your body (mind and soul).. I mean , most issues people encounter in life are because of..oh i duno.. self-esteem issues... the whole "i'm not good enough..." "she/he is better than me..." but if you were truly happy with yourself and its okay to love yourself ;) wouldn't everyone be happy? (if not a little obnoxious, but everything in moderation pls ;p) ..and there's the thought of the day done! haha...

You know, it kinda sucks that we're not all in the same place anymore.. everyones making new friends.. well, I know I am.. I've got a great group of friends here in Stephenson Hall (which is where I stay) and they're all decent.. as in.. we all balance work and play.... i think...? haha.. well they're all sensible.. i mean, there are 3 medics in our little group.. and yea, that pretty much explains everything.. but apart from my partners in crime here in Stevo, I've got.. (hoes.. in different area codes... haha sorry i don't know what's wrong with me, I'm thinking in song atm..) a 'family' in a place called Ranmoor House which is considered to be the dodgier halls in Sheffield (yes, my place is poooosh..) but the guys are lurvely and the girls are fun.. and they have all decided that I am an unofficial member there. It is a long story as to how I actually got to know all these people in a place where I don't even stay... But I'll save that for next time.. Suffice it to say they make sure I go there atleast 2-3 times a week.. many a crazy thing has happened there.

Oh btw, if you're wondering why the pictures are all over the place, I'm wondering the same thing atm.. I can't get the thing to do what I want.. So I'm just going to leave the photos wherever the end up haha.. that first one is us at Stevo, getting ready to go to a pajama party at the bar hehe.. it was fun.. from left to right its Becky, Amy, Matt, Me and Chris.

I think I've got pic thing figured out now. but I can't be entirely sure.. anyhoo, this is us before leaving to the freshers ball..
Okie doke.. i wanted to put up more pics but its being annoying so I'm gonna leave it here for now and maybe put up a separate entry with just photos... Laters... xox

..I'm Back!!!..

Hello again everyone!! I really don't know what to say since I haven't actually written in this blog of mine in aaaaggeesss.. and apologies to everyone who was waiting on me to actually update it.. =s I've been so busy with my course it's unbelievable.. but, everything is going smooooothly so that's great.. I probably won't write much today but just thought I'd let you guys know that I am back on my blog ;)

If you guys are wondering, Sheffield is GREAT, so you should all come down here and see moi, because, if we're being honest, I'm great too.. haha kidding. No, I'm not. Yes, I am. hehe. If I seem a bit hyper it's because I am..slightly.. hehe..I will be posting up pictures soon so don't worry. This is all just really something to help me get started again.. plus I was bored and finished my work and have to go to a choir thing at 3 (which means I have to leave at 2:30) so I decided to fill some time in by writing.

To Ayu: Ayu, I now know what you meant when you said that thing before I left.. about the drama that I sort of seem to bring about wherever I am...? I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN NOW!! hehe but the juicy, interesting details will have to wait ;)

To Nana: I can't wait to see you again during the xmas hols.. about 5 more weeks to go! It'll go by in a flash.

Normally at this point in time, I would try and put in a lil philosophical something about realisation and being away and all that.. but I can't particularly be bothered right now.. but never fear, being Nur, there is always something on my mind, so look forward to my next post ya?

Sadly, if you haven't already guessed from my msg to Nana, I won't be coming back to Brunei for the december holidays because I've got exams and assignments to do right after the holidays and I'm not bringing all my law books back home.. they are THICK!! and plus, I procrastinate so much when I'm here, I don't think that I'd actually do much work when I'm back home.. that's not to say that I don't miss home.. I, surprisingly miss it too much.. Sadly, I miss the mall (haha of all things!)... I miss everything and everyone back home.. There really is no place like home.. *sniff* BUT enough of that! hehe.. but yea, I think that I'm really growing up here, and finding myself.. which is good... anyhoo, I must get back to some work before I go..
I will be back!
