A fresh new Tuesday, and it's still early in the morning. Yes I woke up early this time, as yesterday had been exhausting, yet highly enjoyable! It all started with a conversation between my partner and I during a meet-up for breakfast.. 'Bah bila ke Seria?' And there we go! a random day out to Seria town and Kuala Belait.
There are four districts in Brunei Darussalam of course. I'm currently living in Tutong district. The place where I really grew up is in Belait district; just a short 45 minutes trip from where I'm residing today. Within Belait district, I have lived in Seria Town (part of Belait), and Kuala Belait (the main town in Belait). Just a little background to share, although most of you have already known this =D.
The School
I studied in Seria ever since I was in primary 1 up until 6. Sekolah Rendah Pengiran Setia Negara Pengiran Mohd Yusof, Lorong Tiga Selatan Seria ('SR PSN Seria' in short).

Aaahh~ Those wonderful years in primary school. Mom used to teach here and I bet she used to be ashamed of me for being such a bad boy. Yes I'm a bad boy, I once peed in the toilet without flushing! How bad is that! huuuuh~ And yes, being a teacher's son is never easy; once you dropped your marks in a test, you'll get scolded.. 'Nah, main game lagi kau!' . I mean, that was just a simple class test, not a big exam! anyway I still love you mom =D. There are however silver linings behind those 'test fails'; I got to learn from my mistakes and improve from what I lack of.
Other stuffs going on in my primary years were:
- Getting to be head of class
- Joined Nasyid competition
- Got 2nd place for the inter school's science competition
- Main carah kaki everyday, fun fun fun!
- Took part in a chess competition
- Got scolded...
- Others that were too embarrassing to blog about.
The Hospital
Thanks for helping me take a picture! <3
This is where I was born, Panaga Health Centre. We took a short stop here on our way to Kuala Belait. Well, there's no need to enter the hospital, but WE HAD TO. WE JUST HAD TO. There's always a consequence if you're having too much to drink.. Well, what better place to empty your bladder if not the hospital where you were born! right? Thanks to the doctors and nurses who helped my mom to ease her misery of getting me out back then, November 1991 to be exact. Thanks!
We visited several other places in Seria and Kuala Belait but didn't get the chance to take pictures of them all mainly due to us just driving past by those places and didn't make a stop. But, here's some that my partner managed to capture.
This monument in Seria was put up by the Brunei Shell Petroleum to commemorate the Billionth barrel of crude oil produced by them in Brunei.
To buy this drink is a must for me, whenever I come to Seria. The taste is still the same! after all the years I have 'abandoned' the place. This is soo good!
Had a quick pit-stop at Sugarbun in Kuala Belait. I have to say, the fish fillet is disappointing, rugi $3 eh
