I am back from my little tropical island. It was a pain not being able to open all my handphone messages whilst holidaying there. My handphones inbox is in such a way that it displays the first 1/3 of the messaged recieved under the senders name. This made it all the more trumatic. Let me quote an example. On the first day, sender A messaged me sending the message "Guess what guess what? Nothing im just bored". Unfortunately, my inbox only displayed the first third of the message so i only got to see "guess what guess..". The agonizing pain of not being able to guess what made me a little delirious during the vacation.
Ana-phobia has hit me. Some of you may know that i have this huge phobia of my maid. Theres nothing wrong with her per se but theres just something about her that just pretty much annoys me. Shes from indonesia so when i went to Bintan (the carribean), i was surrounded by ana-nians (her name being ana). My parents kept laughing at me for my paranoia, save for the part where i spilt water all over the table upon looking at our waitress (who is an exact replica of Ana). Perhaps im being biased, or maybe my eye is defective, but i swear, most of the people i see looks like Ana.
This is going to be quite an entry because i have a lot of stuff to say. On the whole, i really enjoyed my trip. I was happy to be on a Jetski again although we couldnt snorkel due to strong undercurrent. Im glad to see my dad enjoying the trip so much. My dad is really quite the adventurer, if not for his back problem, we would have been backpacking in newzealand by now. However, because of his back, we can only travel to limited places and do activities that inquired little strain. Was he ever happy when he could ride the all terrain vehicle, and so we did for one hour. My dad and mom rode in this ATV but its in a car form whereas i had to ride in a motorbike form (as shown).
I wish i had my camera with me then. Or now. My camera is in the repair shop so i have zilch pictures of the trip. Anyway, my dad was the driver and my mom (being in the passengers seat) was the navigator. And me? The target. My dad and his army jargon..
The beach was beautiful. I spent every single day sun-tanning underneath the hot sun. The sand was whitish and the sea was bluish green. It was a picture of peace and tranquility. I did suffer quite a bit of sunburn because of that though. My mom booked for the both of us some spa treatments and i did this Javanese lulur. It was damn shiok, being kneaded like a kobe beef haha.
Theres a lot of things going on today. Sebo and Pearlyn are at DXO today no doubt to take advantage of the free entry (NTUC uncles haha), theres this yatch party called Azure which i do have an interest in but im too tired and Benjis supposed to drop by and chat. Zakewejwrh. I cant remember what else.
Its back to civilisation now. Its time to finish up holiday homework, catch up with old friends, irritate present ones, get going for fencing training (finally jackets are here. the 83 dollar jacket wa-haha), finish up Bleach and greys anatomy. I hope the remaining days wont outlast the stuff i want to do.

I spent my day running away from kinokuniya staff inside the bookstore itself. To explain my little adventure, my dad was going to recieve his heart-check up results tomorrow. Hes' pretty scared that theres something wrong with his heart because the last time we checked, one of his valves was leaking due to his weight. Anyway, I wanted to write a card for him because its a small tradition of our family to write notes to each other before an important event. So i bought a card from borders (freaking 5 bucks. I shouldve just printed one out) and went down to kinokuniya to use the pens because the pen section at borders was right next to the cashier. I couldnt possibly write a 2 page note with that scary indian guy now could i?
So i used a pen in kinokuniya but because it was uncomfortable to stand and write, i hid in the childrens section writing the note. As i was writing, this staff came over and said that i could not use the pen 'so much' and i had to purchase. I apologized and went to to the japanese comics section and continued writing the note. I was pretty surprised that the staff approached me telling me that so i became really paranoid. Everytime a staff walked past the comic section, i would quickly duck to another corner.
A simple 5 minute note to write became over 20 minutes.
I need to get an S-video cable to connect my laptop to my TV. This way i can watch all my videos in youtube with comfort. I hate staring too long in my laptop, makes me pretty dizzy.
Im off to the Carribean (bintan!) on wednesday. Its going to be a good opportunity to sit back, relax and read my novel. In the meantime, im going to watch TV.
