Play Play Play non stop

I guess playtime's not over.. And I've been playing all the way since the exams ended all right...
30th Nov - Went out with class to eat 鼎泰峰... ate only a bit coz had to save stomach space for Choon Kiat's Tim Sum Buffet treat.. haa guess I'm the youngest xiong di there.. weird that his wife's jie mei are all so much older than me..
1st Dec - Missed my swim.. went with Gabe and Veron to Queensway and bought my extension cord.. wanted to but earphones but were freakin expensive.. should I buy seinheisser or sony earphones? Singapore Idol Finals at night and Taufik won!! Well he's so much better than the stupid super-ugly Sly... Went to cheong with the level 4 guys after that.. couldn't get into Zouk.. went to Double-O instead... followed by Geylang.... (haha don't think dirty.. nothing happened..)
2nd Dec - Swam finally.. with Francis, Dustin and Su Kiang. 1st step in the holiday-losing-weight programme.. Started watching 倚天屠龙记.. then went out to watch THE INCREDIBLES!!! Which was truely and incredible show!! The best cartoon I've ever watched!!
3rd Dec - Swam again.. with Suzanne, Felicia, Mark and Dustin. Pre-Bintan tan.. a bit darker.. the dark clouds didn't help. And yes I went home to continue my 倚天屠龙记 saga.. the 六大派围攻光明顶 (Episode 16) was fantastic!!! And it didn't help that 周芝若 looked totally like xy (that gabriel admitted too).. ooh melted on the sofa so many times.. sheesh I must get her out of my mind.
4th Dec - 5pm to 5am.. 12 hours of drama serial.. non-stop (except for a short dinner actually). No I can't believe I actually glued myself to the gogglebox for so long..
5th Dec - 3pm to 11pm.. Finished the whole series.. Felt a bit lost then.. Suddenly nothing to do like that. I really wanna watch the whole serial again... but that's crazy. Maybe before school reopens.
6th Dec - Tim Sum Buffet at Miranma hotel. Yum yum. Well.. a spate of unhappy things happened after that.
7th Dec - Bintan!! Though it was not the better Nirwana Resort.. it's the company that makes the difference. The trip took a rainy start.. so no sea sports. Went to the 'city' Tanjong Pinang (did I spell correctly) which turned out to be a gross mix of Kathmandu and the rural Malaysia suburbs.. Wasted a S$60 cab fair and a 1.5 hour ride there.
8th Dec - We were rewarded with sunny sunny weather the next day.. despite the lousy continental breakfast of (guess what?) Toast (which were not hot at all) and spread (proabably all sponsored) and Nasi Goreng (ok this was not too bad) with Orange Juice (that was circulating in the machine since the night before.. eww gross). Totally craved for omelette (which I thought would be a standard dish in a "continental" breakfast but it cost S$4.00!!
It was beach day! Volleyball.. suntanning.. and the exciting Bananaboat ride which saw Wenlee and Mark being thrown off the boat and the death of my camera. Dinner was excellent at the Kampung and the day ended under zillions of stars by the sea. Somehow it crossed my mind if at that moment of stargazing someone at kampuchea would be looking at the same stars at the same time? Made a wish anyway...
9th Dec - Sneaked to Nirwana (as Peter Tan, Pauline Tan and Titus Ong) after checking out to use the pool.. and jacuzzi. Skies were not good. Cold. Went to Kampung to eat again. Excellent sunset. A slight crisis (we forgot to bring the ferry tickets to the terminal!) before leaving but well.. we hit Singapore by 10.30 pm. And that concluded our trip.
10th Dec - Went to repair my camera.. road relay training.. and now in hall in my room staying here illegally. Haha lucky I never lock my door. And lucky pesky kids are not using my room for their camp. Well even if they are I'm back and they jolly well find somewhere else to spend the night.
Sigh sigh sigh.. guess my description didn't do the trip to Bintan any justice.. guess my language skills suck now.. (look at the time). I guess Felicia's or Suzanne's blogs will have more exciting accounts. Stick around while I'll uplaod the photos soon.. when I get them from Mark as my camera died halfway...
Gotta be at East Coast at 9 to wash cars.. to help out in the CHESS fund raising thing.. whou I'm such a siao-on chem engineer..
Goodnight.
