schlumberger

okay its freaking hard to pronounce i know. the original french people here call the name:

shlum-bahh-jhei.

wait wait, okay, allow jim to guide you via his very own comprehensive step by step procedure that will make you a name pronouncing champion:

step one: put your lips as though youre trying to kiss the love of your life, and at the same time, restrain yourself from fantasizing about... ahem.. that.

step two: take a deep breath and be mentally prepared (like chanting "schlumberger, schlumberger" a few times though you have no idea how to pronounce it).

step three: say s-c-h-l-u-m, then b-a-h-h, then j-h-e-i like your mouth's dancing latin.

step four: okay congratulations, you have officially and successfully graduated from the "jim says you look super gong" class! :P

lol okay its hard to try to make that sound here, but its not that weird bah.

cutting all the crap.

this picture is pretty amazing. :) i mean the thingee happening behind.

so, jim's been here for a wee bit near 3 months now. time passes fast, so many digestions, ups, downs, indigestions, problems, happenings and what not. so many things to learn, so many people to see, so many people to not see, and so many surprises to get.

i thank God for sending me here, because honestly, ive always wanted to stay comfortable at home. always. ive been away from home every now and then, sometimes thousands of miles away for an indecent period of time already. and that somehow makes jim a wee bit weary of travelling away from the family again (which of course includes the freaking chubby doggie at home).

weinbowr. :)

but all those travelling, all those away-from-home-moments are really exciting when i do a wee bit of flashback. theres so many things revolving around the world, the sea of people that ive met, and i definitely wouldnt get to experience even a wee of them if i keep insisting to stay home.

and now, even in the lowest moments of me being in labuan, i am blessed. probably, the best present that He has blessed me with now. *wink*.

oh and and if you dont believe that doggie is now not fat, but FATTTT!, see this:

ohhh look at his tummy! ohh! deyymmm! 

lol. im going to sooo bring him to the gym when im back to earth. :P

take care everyone!

(p/s: jim's flight back is confirmed! 12-18th of oct 2008)
