Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Brunei...




Finally made the switch to blogger beta. Turns out the customizations weren't as difficult as I thought they would be. Kinda looks the same... probably a bit better?

Highlights
  • Can add page elements easily without going into the HTML template. This is probably the biggest improvement. Final result is lebih kemas dan rapi...
  • Can control the fonts and colors from one interface (can pop-up some more heheh). There's also a useful function called shuffle colors which is good for color coordination challenged folks.
  • Labels. This is an overdue feature which does wonders for organizing one's posts.
Lowlights
  • Some scripts don't seem to work.
  • No 3 column templates to start with
  • Performance still hit-and-miss
Overall though, there's a lot to like about this new blogger and the short-comings, well they can only be fixed can't they?

    I cant seem to get my blogroll "updated notice", I guess its for paid accounts only. The beta is much more easier to use than the old one, especially adding html stuffs.

    mogile: Does WordPress allow you to import from Blogger?

Body scrub, Brunei Stylie...

Attended a friend's bedak mandi (pre-wedding ceremony which involves a blessing by close family elders and a cleansing body-scrub) ceremony this afternoon and it brought back memories of my own bedak mandi all those years ago. What fun, a free body scrub performed by several family members, watched by even more family members! More pics here . Short rant: During the Microsoft Vista launch , both of us went in "business attire" as stated in the invitation. While trying to photograph the guest of honour, I was approached by one of the more seasoned photographers who asked me where I was from. I said I was an invited guest who happened to bring my camera. This is what he said to me, "Mana baju kot mu? Kalau jemputan duduk saja. Kalau mau buleh pulang ku panggil AO ni untuk membawa kau keluar." Yes, very Bruneian indeed matey. You could have just told me that its a requirement for photographers to wear a suit in the presence of royalty. No need to bite my head of...

Hadrah

... In the past, hadrah was only performed during weddings, but now it is performed in open events, to greet honoured guests and more significantly to signal the arrival of His Majesty in various events... ... Brunei youths nowadays have done well in preserving the heritage and have even enhanced it. Back then, competition involved only beating of drums and chanting. But now performances are choreographed to make it more attractive and interesting... ... hadrah could be further promoted in Brunei if there is a national association of hadrah set up. "We have a national team for silat and gasing (top spinning), but not for hadrah. We cannot just rely on mukim and schools to promote the activity, it has to be done at a national level... -- The Brunei Times
