初一wake up at 9am today. bath and change then woke my dad up. off to my nanny's house to bai nian and meet my sis. chatted with my nanny a while then as usual, next stop is my ah ma's house. this year we are the first to reach surprising. lunch is order from zhi chai. food ain't nice but suan lerr larsh. mixed around with my aunts and uncles til 2+. then all start to part lerr. took a lift from my er gu to bedok.
then off to tanah merah ferry terminal. changed my boarding pass. as its the first time i travelled alone, was pretty nervous and scare that i may end up going on the wrong ferry and all that. but hey, thank God. all went fine. arrived at bintan about 630pm. the terminal there isnt like tanjong pinang so messed up and many people. can see clearly where to take the shuttle bus to my hotel (nirwana gardens).
shawn and her family waited for me at lobby. never hesitated. called cab and went to pasar oleh oleh. had a body scrub while shawn did a foot massage. then dinner at helo helo restaurant. the food is nice and theres people playing guitar and drums. they can sing chinese, dialect, english and indo songs. cool! esp the drummer who doesnt smile. black face all the way whereas the lead singer is the type who is very sentimental. next stop is the pub. shawn and her dad played pool. kinda envious of their close relationship. hahax. watched tv til 1+am then koonx liao.
初二
woke up at sg time 9+am. off to have buffet breakfast. the food is great. ate quite full. rested a lil while. then went to the poolside. shawn's frenz there quite early. managed to catch a seat besides them. into the water for 2+ hours. omg. for the first time im sunburnt til its painful. red like lobster *faint* bathed and played air rifle. as not good at aimming, gave up after a few shots. shawn is duper good at it. even though the wind is strong, she still managed to shot like 5 cans like? cool!
its dune buggy next; driving the action terrain vechicle. wanna try to drive actually. but im the type who knows nuts about driving. not even daytona. so i gave up the try so shawn became the driver. thats mud to avoid and the rocky path. super hard to drive. we got stuck twice but the guide helped us drove out of it. spent an hour and a half there. at the end of it, we all kena mud so went back to hotel to bath.
dinner at helo helo again. the japan tourists is super loud and rude. think they are on par with koreans xia. lol. the jap kids are handsome though. got one looks like bruce lee. voice is quite deep but he seems to be just 15? anyway, around sg 12mn, we went to a beach party. its ladies night. but wad we saw is exotic dancers. mostly girls. sians. only saw two cute guys. one is a dancer another is next table one. haha. stayed up watch tv before my eyes cant take it at 2+am.
初三 nothing much happening at bintan. ehhh did i mention earlier i went bintan? think i never. lol nvm. boarded ferry about 1545. by the time i reach home its 7pm. tired~ but still bath and headed over to kelvin's house. had steamboat and played cards. i won $50 heex. looks like the sheng xiao prediction may not be so accurate afterall. =D~ took cab home at dropped to sleep about 230am.
初四 (today)didnt really wanna wake up. but dragged myself out of bed at 12nn. bathed, watched one variety show then off to robert, hock meng and kinfoo's place. played cards at the last stop. was winning when playing blackjack. but they changed to big two when balanced 4 kakis.. sianz tiao. lost $11 but haha never mind la. still have cab fare. tmr will be back to work~ time to start my ONS depolyment stage again.
