pictures time!

I can't upload them to shutterfly somehow, so.. make do with these hehe. I didn't realise 300 over photos, almost reaching 400, is actually considered alot already. so.. can view my shutterfly when i'm done uploading them hehe.


I'm still in that holiday mood!! don't wanna get adjusted back to my sucky work life. :( self-induced rejection haha. But i guess it will hit back soon, just have to leave memories of my trip perfect , almost perfect, the way it is.


okieokie.. So day 1&2:
so we reached goldenmile complex at about 915pm to settle all the paper work, coach suppose to leave at 10pm.

I was really pissed off with the staff/passengers. I mean people come here for a holiday with bf/gf, the staff actually gave them separate single seats. And then they were arguing and holding back the bus for what, 15mins??

And you know the staff gave us the car plate number, we're supposed to go find the coach and board the bus. These people just sat down there and expect people to invite them up the bus is it?! Our bus finally left at 1020pm and then had to make a trip back again just to FETCH those lazy people. grrrr...

yep, our almost perfect getaway ruined by them right from the beginning. tsk!
But nevertheless, we reached our destination after 8 hours! :)

Top left: when the bus left for the first time (Domo goes on a trip! hahaha);
Top right: After alighting the coach waiting for our ferry at 9am;
Bottom: Mum, jer and I on the smaller ferry.


*****************



Reached Redang beach resort yippie! :):)
Top: Us waiting for our waffles and kopi/teh, so hungry~
Oh and I forgot to try their Ramly burgerrrss!! =(

Bottom: Kiong's stylo-milo underwater camera; our room key! :)

********************



Before our first snorkelling trip, we went to see see look around, take photos, and hunt for my (now mum's) new shades.

Haha, and check out my now yellow sleeveless top, it's supposed to be my favourite white top! LOL. It is really well-dyed to this ugly denim yellow, really evenly dyed that you won't realise it was white before. But I don't think i'll wear it in Singapore again, so i figured maybe i'll just wear it into the water and then throw it after that :P




*****************


And we went to More More tea inn where they filmed 夏日沫沫茶(xia ri mo mo cha)! It's now quite a big souvenir shop . So nicee!! And they have a very tacky signature logo of a man drinking momo tea lol.
Bottom: Pirates of the Caribbean! hahaha ; Jer, me and my mum's new shade :P

***************



First night after dinner, chilling at summer's point for their live music. Lousy live music cause not only do they sing lousy english songs, they sing lousy chinese/canto songs too, tsk!
Bottom: Domo's sleep time! :)

***************



Day 3:
Everyday we just wake up, breakfast, snorkel, lunch, snorkel, tea break, snorkel, dinner.

sooo shiokkk!!!! it's quite a good kind of too life right? :) :)

Parents enjoying themselves in the early morning sun by the beach.
It was chilly in the morning so i wore my sweater, grrrr....
didn't know they are so romantic oh! haha..


******************



playing with shadows.
we were trying to make a heart with our heads,
and then trying to do yoga by the beach,
LOL.


******************



scenery.

*********************




At night we managed to sneak past our parents and secretly went to do some air brush tattoos hehe. Only 20RM! after discount *ahem* only 30RM for both hehe.

I've always wanted to ink my ankle!! It's supposed to last for a week, but my flower is now gone, leaving only the leaf and stalk there. so weird.

*****************



Here's our second night listening to live band by the tequila sunrise band! They are way way wayyyyyy better and much more friendly as compared to those at summer's point. Crazy dad ordered three jugs of beer! haha. drinking with jer and dad, how often can i do this lol.

After that it was already 11pm and the music's over. There was this Saturday night disco going on while on our way back and they were play POKER FACE by Lady gaga, hahahahha. it's so discoey! lol. this song is quite popular at that beach ~ :D

****************



Day 4:
After our quick breakfast the next day we left for the morning ferry at 630am. *yawns*
slept on the ferry
reached the jetty
Had really delicious and cheap pippin hot prata and teh at a nearby prata stall
head back for our coach
waited for the usual people in the coach

and then we all headed back to Singapore. treacherous 9 hours bus ride back..

*******************




the underwater snorkelling photos are here. :)
First snorkelling trip.

Top: Jer & I; in the water taken by a very helpful instructor; and... some fish haha.
Bottom: the helpful instructor taking nemo up for us; purple tomato thinggy!; anemone and nemo..

******************



Row1: brain coral ; Row2: Mushroom starfish (or smth);
Row3: Sea cucumber! Looks like enlarged maggots from the photos, eww..

***************



Snorkelling at the beach itself with mum and dad.

******************



Marine Park:
Lots of fish feeding with bread.
Fishes don't utilise carbohydrates as well as protein,
PROTEINSS.
so it's useless to give them carbo ok!!


And as you can see from the bottom left photo,
somebody stepping on those poor corals througout :(


*****************



More brain corals, reefs, anemone, clown fishes,
and smacked right in the middle of the photo,
somebody sitting down at the huge coral :(






alright, that's basically everything already haha.
gotta change and head for work now :(
missing the beach so much. Everything natural, care-less feeling.
Sigh.

:o

Alright I'm back. :) Had a great break, hehe. hate to come back for work. skin is terrible due to the sun and sunblock, but then again, thanks to the sunblock I didn't become as tanned as i thought i would be. oh and no burns! hehe :)

While we were all sitting and resting on our ferry back to the jetty, look at the sea, the beach all behind us.. so sad you know! :( but yeah, it's just a vacation, I can't stay there forever~

And our parents are there. There's good and bad bout bringing our parents along. Good being, you get to spend time with them, family bonding, do stuffs together, it's a great feeling too :) When you see them enjoying themselves by the beach, sitting at the beach chair, relaxing.. for that few moments, just staring at the beach scenery and forgetting their worries.. :)

Bad being, they are always quarreling! and complaining, and quarreling and then complaining and then quarrel again! nonsensical stuffs like, no tv... i don't want to snorkel.. the water too salty... the sun to sunny.. don't want to eat bread.. why our resort so lousy.. why don't have swimming pool... why don't have shampoo.. why this why that, don't want this, don't wan that, don't like this, don't like that.

So frustrating and irritating!
带他们出去真麻烦!

But anyway it was until the last day when we were on the coach back that everyone was so pissed off. So actually the trip was really nice and fun :)

Snorkeling wasn't as bad as i thought it would be, in fact it was quite great hehe :):)



still filtering the photos, so maybe post another one later when i'm done :P I'm on leave!! wahaha.. but i still don't feel like working tomorrow, or the day after for that matter. :(
