Me and my beloved Asmah just finished our kursus pra-perkahwinan last two days. Damn, it was tiring just to sit and listened to 12 ceramah in two days from 8am till 5pm. Anyway, it is useful and we’ve gotten the precious certificates to proceed with other procedures like filling in some more forms, carry out the medical test and so on.
It was the salary day yesterday. Some of the cohort 2 probably have gotten their slips. I on the other hand, still have to wait for next month to feel what it’s like to get a hold of my own pay slip. Many things need to be bought and done for the preparations of the marriage. Really can’t wait for next month.
The jemaah nazir is currently here in daerah Tuaran and Tamparuli for two or three weeks. Some of the schools have already been visited. I’m updating my fails but hopefully they wouldn’t come to my school. My penolong kanan has already being promoted and transferred to Kota Belud. So, now I’m the only English language teacher in my school. The newly appointed penolong kanan is adjusting the overall timetables and I heard the teachers have decided to let me teach English only and drop my Pendidikan Moral class. Good news eh. The catch is, I have to teach all six classes (the whole school) and after this, from 28 periods per week, I have 45 periods. S#@%

after one month in Tamparuli
Now, it’s about one month since I came to Sabah. Feeling quite settled here but I still preferred to be posted at East Brisbane State School (damn, I actually miss it). Haha. Now, let me tell you something about my school. My school, SK Bundu Tahuri, Tamparuli (actually the locals here pronounce it as TampaLURI, just knew bout it recently, though I thought I misheard them in the first place...lol) is a Pedalaman 1 category and situated about 18km from Tamparuli town. To be specific, only 4km is the main road, the other 14km is a harsh and gruesome gravel road (ask Mien, he had experienced it once...heh). The thing about the road is, I have to experience it every single day going to the school. This is because, almost all teachers live outside at the town except those who come from the village nearby to the school. And since I have moved to Tuaran after two weeks here, I have to travel about 30km to school (60km altogether) every day. But it’s ok, now I’m much closer to my loved one (only 3.5km from my rented house...hehe).
I love my school (small school)...I love the staffs (they’re all Sabahans)...I love the kids (all of them are Dusun)...I love the environment (there’s a small stream just next to the field...and the school’s surrounded by green hills...and it’s quite close to Mt. Kinabalu)...I love the GB who is really considerate by letting me teaching English only...and I love that I could use my hotlink number at school (but only at two particular spots)...huhu. Well, that’s how to sum up how I feel about my school. It’s indeed a very small school. Mien and Tiqah being posted to Pedalaman 2 schools and they have about 100++ pupils but here, they’re just 42 pupils here (like for year 5, there are only 4 pupils; 2 boys and 2 girls). All of them are Christians except one year 2 girl who is a Muslim.
In shorts, I love the atmosphere at my school - it’s not too hectic like KL. Because from what I heard from a few colleagues in Semenanjung, they have been doing lots of stuff and have humungous workloads. However, after one month being here, my only job is to go inside the class and teach – that’s just about it. Until at one point I feel like this is just a mere vacation for me. But then, I realised that I should be doing something like contribute for the betterment of this school. On second thought, I’ll think about that later. As for now, I just want to enjoy my ‘vacation’ ;p

Reventon anyone?
It’s not that I love to shop online like buying stuff on the eBay. But based on my experience (oh lama gile tak dgr ni...haha), sometimes, the things you wanted or imagined did not turn out to be like that. The photos might have small note at the bottom like ‘for illustration purpose only’. But today might be different. I just stumble upon something I never could have imagined to see in my whole life. Do you know the super-powerful-and-sophisticated-yet-really-limited Lamborghini Reventon? Yup, the one that is styled to look like F22 Raptors.
Well, the thing is, when this car debuted during the 2007 Frankfurt Auto Show, they announced that only 20 will put into production. And even if I or anyone has enough money (which is about one million euro or 800,000 pound sterling), all 20 of them have already been sold. So, there goes my chance to own one of the most powerful + exclusive + expensive + stylish + limited Lamborghini in history.
But then, today, I have another chance of getting my hand on this superb car. You see, some (actually most) people get bored easily. Be it with a cheap stuff, girl / boy friend, or at anything. People like the owner of the super-rare Lambo Reventon who, after just 75 miles in his new toy, has had enough fun and decided to sell it. Either that or the credit crunch has started to eat into the high-end supercar market. I suspect the latter (haha).
So, as for me, of anyone who interested in this ‘fun toy’, and if you have more than US $ 1,900,000, you can place bid for this car. Remember, it just has one owner and the mileage is only 75 miles (120km). Don’t miss the once-in-a-lifetime-super-golden opportunity ^_^
