yeah as someone else has mentioned, the trailing dot is the problem.
since you've already specified the origin (andrewpea.com.) Bind will add
the origin to anything you add without a trailing dot.

you can also create the zone file relative to the origin (which by default
is the domain specified in your named.conf file).
ie
asus		IN   A	192.168.10.5
