I'm beat
Home Alone 101. No, I'm really not counting.
Today is Promotion Day for our school, I have no idea what it's for. But what I
do know is that we don't have to go to school! So no BTC today, which means a break from that torturous thing. However, after yesterday, I have started to enjoy the BTC trainings.
Let's do a countdown, how 'bout that? Let's see...
7 more days till the start of the holidays!
7 more days to ice-skating and HSM3!
15 more days to zoo day!
Are we still going for Twilight and Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging?(Please say yes!!)
38 more days to COALS camp...
What have I not done yet? Hmmmm...
Buy birthday presents for Doon, Noorel, Cloon and Abigail.
Write the damned compo (TODAY! I MUST!)
Writing all those stuff down is making me break out in cold sweat now, REALLY! I shall stop it...It's like a reminder that you're going to die by the end of this week!
I have yet to tell you guys about my trip to Bintan! Well, let me just post some highlights...Okay I'll just say briefly what I did there (:
First day we arrived around late in the morning, so we checked in and had our buffet lunch after taking a trip to the pristine beach. Really, it was. It was totally awesome! Shermae coincidentally bumped into her CCA instructors and their daughter! After that, we still had some time to spare, so we went to the entertainment centre to play some PING PONG(well, if I didn't play, Rati would not download games for me...)! Then we went for our free archery lesson! Really fun too because half way to the archery..um, place, I got to drive the buggy! :D My mummy and sister were both freaking out! I did not manage to hit all my arrows onto the target but I had fun (: Jemmy was really nice and gave us extra arrows! Then we went to Pasat/Pasar Oleh Oleh for our MASSAGE AND FULL BODY SCRUB! I just LOVED IT! LOVELOVELOVELOVEITITIT!!! Seriously, girls, you should all go for spa or something once in a while. Oh, I meant without the massage. It hurt so badly the next morning I literally dragged myself out of bed...Then we had a really late dinner. On our drive back, it was really scary because out of the whole journey back, there were only 5 to 6 street lamps. So picture this: It's totally pitch black, except for the twinkly stars in the night sky. Today's a new moon. Only the passing cars and the vehicle you're in illuminating the 2-lane roads. Then suddenly...
Okay! Day 2 (: It was really awesome because we slapped on our sun block lotions and slipped on our swim suits and headed off to the beach straight after breakfast! I tell you it was so wonderful! That morning the sun was REALLY blazing, mummy said it was because Indonesia was nearer or literally ON the equator. Hmmm, must find out... Oh hey! I got pictures! So we were hanging out at the beach for hours. Where did we go after that? OH! To the swimming pool we saw the day before! It had a slide! So: Slide + in a pool = GOGOGO! Yeah, however after our first try, we did not want to try it again, it was soooo slow (I guess the gushing water was too little for our weight xp) and really stinky. AH! I totally forgot to mention our Banana Boat ride! Now THIS has to have it's own paragraph (:
Sister wanted to try jet skiing while I wanted snorkeling, after we thought it through, we all decided on...BANANA BOATE! (How SUJU pronounces it) Mummy rode with us too! And they let mummy ride for free, how awesome is that? (it was prices $15/person, almost everything there was in Sing. dollars because usually most Singaporeans go there for their holidays.) I guess it was because she knew how to speak Malay fluently and something else which I forgot xp. So we took some jump shots before climbing onto the boat. It was really an awesome experience. I sat right in the front. So: Thumbs up means speed up, thumbs down means slow down, while an okay sign means that's perfect. We decided to put thumbs up all the way, and we got CAPSIZED!! Yeah we so did :D The driver was playing with us too because he kept going left and right, which meant we were always bumping over the waves created by the boat. When we all fell into the sea, Shermae kicked me in my right hip...Somewhere there but NOT lower. It still hurts today. Anyway, Mummy and sister were freaking out and screaming when we went back up for the ride. Imagine that they were your own mother and sister, who happened to have drunk seawater!!! I am not evil.
So, at the beach I got sand stuck in my shorts! It took me almost an hour to get it out! After bathing and stuff, we rested till 5pm and headed out to Pasar Oleh Oleh again. This time I got myself a sarong (orange with lizard prints on it. Looks really authentic! I can even just wear it like a halter dress!) and a pair of earrings. The earrings are really beautiful (: Guess the colour and I'll...Whatever :D
OOH PLANE! PLANE!
Anyway on the third day we had a really full breakfast and then we went back to our room to rest till checking out time. Sister sort of forced mummy to book a later vessel, so we had to stone in the room for hours. By then I had to wear a tank top because my shoulders were burning and I wanted to cool them so badly. Now it still itches.
I have to say, I THOROUGHLY enjoyed myself there and would SO go back for my honeymoon :D It's really beautiful, and you don't have to waste to much money to fly all the way to the US or wherever!

Do you see the water? Way nicer than East Coast Beach, obviously :D


I think clouds are the best things of Nature.



Shermae and Unnie (pronounced Onnie. This I shall use to call sister from no on!)

Doesn't Mae look sweet? Well looks are really deceiving, trust me.

Know what? I'm quite alright with Rati now (:


Awesome jump shot, isn't it? Thank shark-man for his excellent photography skills! And not to forget, mummy's Cybershot phone:D

Blur, but I love it (:



My laughing Unnie!
Hey sister, Go sister, Soul sister, Flow sister
Look at Rati's face!

Shermae and I were supposed to do thing-to-thing pose but didn't manage it, because we were laughing so hard and there were lots of people walking by.

Our hardworking maid RATI!

This was right before we left...Aahhh the view, the smell ):
So that's the end of our trip (: Nice pictures hur? I took some for editing!
Okay, so right now I have a pimple that looks like a mole to me, and it's delayed. I'm freaking out! Please let me get it AFTER BTC ends!!
Sister's friends are coming over soon, and we're having our discussion in about half an hour's time. I'm bored...Half an hour is not enough for SIMs!! But what the heck?
Someone gimme some Lurrrve~
1 more day of taking bus home alone at night, and walking in a dark dark lane.
