Gawai!

lol. soz for not updatin! pfft as if ppl would keep checkin back for updates.

so yea 1st of June was the Gawai Celebration for the Sarawakians in Qatar.

whats Gawai? ah erm. its a celebration that the Dayaks celebrate after the paddy harvesting season. what's Dayak? Dayak refers to the non-muslim population in Sarawak. the name Dayak was given by the British when they colonised Sarawak, Malaysia in WWII. i think my facts are wrong, dont blame me coz i dont learn Malaysian History.lol. since 1st june 1957, the Gawai Festival is a public holiday for all the ppl in Sarawak. besides the Agung's bday. Agung meaning King of Malaysia -_-"

im a Dayak(A) coz im an Iban =D iban... well yea is the many races in Malaysia. so is Jasz and christie.

so what did we do?

i went to Jasz's hse at 4 pm on thurs. blabla hang arnd the hse for awhile. helped call KFC -_-" hahahah erm. christie and millie's fam came at 6 i think. so we helped out in the kitchen, yes, we did. christie and i scooped the mini lil cake from the mini lil cups. for msians, i bet you know 'Kuih Apam' yeah we scooped that thing. we're good girls. ill upload the pics once i got the pic from Millie.

then got dressed. then it was dinner.

YUMMMMM

my mum made roasted lamb with honey. and erm jasz's mum made laksa and so many other stufffs!!

even i forgot what the menu for the night was.

ok right so after dinner we went into jasz room and start taking random pics. after that jasz's dad called us to serve wine to the adults. its like a tradition, u have to serve wine to the older ones i dnt know what for. good luck perhaps? hope so!xD

and jasz asked this really blonde ques to millie : "how do we know if its red wine or white wine"

LIKE DUH. THE COLOUR.

after serving wine, we decided to drink a sip of wine (A) jasz and christie are like so omg-ish. they just drank the wine in one go. i wonder how it tastes like that. must be painful. hurts the throat. yuck wine. i liked the White wine. tastes like perrier water. but with alcohol.

why does alcohol tastes yucky? but anyways, read on and ull see the effect of the yummy white wine.

so yeah after that, we watched Pledge on my laptop. the cheap movie with Paris Hilton. or in my own words, the pre-porn-movie-that-gave-me-nightmares =)

the movie is soo crapp!!! why did we even wtch it in the first place?

then 12 am striked, we had to all go out for the toast. soo during the toast u have to go ""OooooooooooooooooooHAaaaaaaaaaa" its a tradition (yet again) and wish everybody happy gawai

and u could drink wahtever u wanna. adults drank wine and i drank coca cola. which also did smt to my body system.

then we did the long dance! yet again, a tradition.

someone leads the dance... of course traditional dance. erm yeah so you have to follow from the back. like a cuchoo train.

christie,jasz, millie and i joined then after that we went to watch the movie again.

i was too sleeeppy i watched for another 10 mins then slept. the parents slept at like 4 am. thank god no one got drunk. hahah

the next morning, jasz and christie told me that i had nightmares and i screamed in my dream. SIGH. according to the 3 girls, i was screaming "WHATS THIS?!"

lolneess.yeah blame the preporn movie. that movie just kept showing some old lady's tits.

so in the morning as soon as we all woke up, we ate the leftovers. i ate laksa. Yumm

jasz and i planned to go to shit centre to watch movies. but we know tht our parents are so tired so we might as well dont ask them coz theyre gonna say no anyways..

christie and millie went home earlier coz they have to go to church later in the evening for Confirmation =)

as for today, i shall call christie, CATHERINE.

me and jasz were like so damn bored we started recording our voices singing to songs. ill wait for her to upload it to imeem. so u shall laugh at it.

then erm we did evil stuffs =) lol. no comment. i wish to tell but naaa!

so yeah time passes by so slowly. we ate lunch at 3 pm. (A)

then after tht u know.. hahahah we decided to make like a british drama. gawd. us and our accent. we made it like an old lady making a big fuss abt her niece. sigh if only it was recorded.

we performed in front of Catherine and Millie. they laughed. wee~ and then Catherine started her irish accent. hahaha Millie din wanna do her australian accent. =(

then we went to bennigans for dinner.

like 2 hrs after that bennigans ran out of power supplly. i got so scared. imagine if it was a threat. u never know. the building could just explode anytime.

half an hr later, we all went home. =) the end.
