His Royal Highness Prince 'Abdul Mateen with the 102nd intake of Sandhurst, graduated from the commissioning course as an officer cadet yesterday during the grand "Sovereign's Parade" for which His Majesty the Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan of Brunei Darussalam represented Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. As rakyat and as a friend of HRH, I'm very proud of HRH's achievement. HRH was also a very fine footballer in which has shown a good role model he was.

My son Abdul Aziz will turns 2 years old later (17 April 2011). This boy has been very active of late and  he talks a lot too. He able to copy what you told him in a matter of minute. He knows alif ba ta until ya, he knows one two three until ten and satu dua tiga until ten. He sings a lot as well! Happy birthday son,  may Allah bless you. Love babu, bapa, kaka Zahra' and kaka Sa'adah:)

Fly me to the moon.

 

Oh yes, I should have posted this yesterday. The date 12 April 2011 marks the 50th anniversary of Yuri Gagarin conquest of space. I've read a lot of Yuri Gagarin's heroic mission during my school days. Although thousand miles away from Brunei, I feel very proud of him. Click here and here for more stories.

Be careful.

I don't think during this wet season is suitable for playing kite. I captured this pic while I'm on  my way to the capital yesterday and the boy (pic above) running for kite whilst ahe is also ignoring the traffic. They even play the kite on the rooftop which is very dangerous!

Yesterday I attended my cousin's wedding at Parit Multi Purpose Hall. 

The attendees were given 1kg of Beras Wangi each *trend* 

The cousins

Picture perfect bro!

Out of my league.

If you happen to read today's BB Weekend, please turn to page 23 on World News (pic above). I do  symphatised this kids and his parents, at the age of 4 years old Lu Zhihao is weighs at 60kg! Compares to me, my weight is 73kg. 'I want to be a superman," said the toddler. "Yum, yum, yum, yum. I like to eat fish," he said. His loud and frequent demands for food, however, are often met by his accomodating parents and a constant stream of visitors to their lively courtyard home. This is a good lesson to me and my wife, because we are often fulfilling our kid's wish for food. *lol*
