I guess the fact that he was at her grad means the engagement is more or less official

Here are the thumbnails of the grad pics
I guess everyone was there, except for Princess Mutawakillah and Fadzillah. Or maybe they're just not in the pics.

Hi Everybody! Sorry I've been away for a couple of days for work.....
So everybody knows Prince Qawi is Princess Majeddah's future husband. Princess Majeddah graduated from Masters of Arts in Environment Development at King's College, University of London where she has been studying from Sept 2003 till Sept 2004.

Here's a photo of Prince Qawi during last year Asean Summit in Laos.

She did her degree at UBD(University Brunei Darussalam) a few years ago, I can't remember the degree she did but it might be pubilc policy like Princess Rashidah did at UBD.

Here you go Reina..The photos of Crown Prince visit to Petra. Prince Qawi is also in one of the photos. He always accompanys Crown Prince to official trips before Crown Prince's marriage to Princess Sarah now that the Crown Prince has Princess Sarah to accompany him to official visits. Prince Qawi will accompany his future bride Princess Majeedah to official functions instead.

Hi Alfie, welcome back, we missed your posts! Did you hear anything about Princess Hamidah (P. Jefri's daughter) marrying Princess Masna's son, Moktar? I heard it will take place in April too.

All these cousins, marrying each other! But it is a good thing that P. Hamidah and her fiancee are not as closely related, compared to P. Qawi and P. Majeedah. I do think Qawi and Majeedah make a handsome couple though. I'm sure things will work out great for the two of them. Qawi looked very smiley at Majeedah's graduation. :)

Hi Alfie!

No worries , take your time. Hope it's not too much of a trouble really. I suppose you could just post the original poem as it is.

Only when it is convenient for you. There's really not urgency. :)

Exact sentiment about Sarah's veil. She's really pretty with her hair and all - wish they could take pictures of her more often that way.

hope they aren't insecure about women being too beautiful .

hmm Master...Smart gal, Princess Majeedah. She looks the intellectual sort to me.

Sarah's looking rather contemplative (tired?) in these recent photos. Are we looking to hear about a royal pregnancy soon?

You are welcome Minnie. I just scanned the pictures and saved them in a folder. Then uploaded them, using the "Manage Attachments" facility on the site.

I will try and add more, when I have time :)

I really do not think that they are trying to hide Sarah's beauty by making her wear the head scarf :) All the royal ladies wear it, not only Sarah. Also Sarah has appeared without the scarf, in local newspapers and also in the local TV news!

Besides which, Sarah looks gorgeous with or without the scarf..so if they were trying..its not working

All of their Majesties' daughters are academically gifted..unlike the sons.

The pregnancy rumours began after Sarah was photographed on her Honeymoon in Milan, showing a slight tummy. She was wearing tight jeans and a shirt. However Sarah has always been slightly chubby. During the wedding she most likely wore a girdle under her outfits to hide it.

I think it's not fair to speculate about pregnancy, so soon after her marriage...Sarah would have every right to feel annoyed .

Thanks! Zina. Yes I heard about Princess Hamidah and P.A. Ali together with the news of Princess Majeedah and Prince Qawi but I didn't want to say anything yet about P.A. Ali.
