BACK! After 60 hours.
Too lazy to blog. Hurh. I shall just rant everything in weird order.
Australia
Er, let's see. The Aussies have a really cool accent (esp this hotel manager called Jerry somethingorother) and most of them have really really pretty eyes (ie.
blue
and
green
)
and everything they sell there is like bloody ex. Even Billabong Australia is cheaper here in Singapore lah wth. And the food here is much nicer and cheaper.
And Aussies have really big tummies. After 6 days in Australia I nearly wanted to do something tremendously stupid like
get a tummy
. But of course I didn't. I'm not an Aussie, so I doubt I'll look sexy with a tummy. Man I'm jealous of them Australians.
Went white water rafting the first day, up to Kuranda on the second day, snorkelled and parasailed on Monday and scuba dived on Tuesday. Rocks. Forget a private jet. I'll save my husband some money and get a personal boat instead. (:
Oh and I found new eye candies: WOMBATS. Yes they're this really cute nearly-a-lum-of-fat animal which largely resembles a mini pig only cuter. Hahaha. Shall post a picture of Winnie the Wombat next time round. They stink though.
Genting
2 days in Singapore before waking up at 430 am on 23rd Dec to head to Genting with mom dad sis, 5 uncles, 5 aunts, 2 grandparents 5 cousins and 2 second cousins. Drive was really scenic and disgustingly long. Along the way funny things were said, like:
Me: Dad whats km/j? Kilometre per joule?
Dad: -laugh- no. J stand for jam. It means hour in malay.
Me: Oh no wonder we keep getting caught in traffic jams. 110km/jam is a very long jam.
Hahaha lame lah. But I don't remember Dad ever drive at 110 km at all. Hell if it were in Singapore we'll be like flying across the island but in Malaysia it seemed a pretty normal speed. Anyway like after a really long drive and about 7 million turns here and there up the hill we finally got to Genting and it was freeeeeeeezing. Brr. Joined another 4 second cousins, 2 aunts and 1 uncle.
Fast forward to 2nd day. Went to the theme park and I got pissed not once but like a thousand times cos their service was effing horrible. Rarr. Went to play a bit of archery. Ernest was there with Uncle Johnny but I kept laughing at him cos his arrows kept hitting the floor.
Then there was the teacups. Raymond and I sat out cos we get dizzy really easily so sis, Eugenia and Teri took one teacup and Terence Randy Ernest and Pong took another and they had this competition to see who could spin the fastest and in the end me Raymond UJ and Auntie Annie had a wonderful time laughing our abs away cos it was so funny to see noone spinning except two crazy teacups.
Anyway, the point is, Ernest loves me! Hahaha ok no connection but yes he does. Poor thing's scared of heights and Eugenia and Raymond and Randy kept making fun of him so I told him I'll sit with him for the cyclone and since then he kept wanting to sit with me! Hahaha. Stupid Randy kept tickling me during the flying coaster thing (no thanks to Raymond who kept tickling him the previous ride). Nearing 930 at night we went to take the flying dragon thing and Ernest was sitting behind me and Raymond with Uncle Johnny,
UJ: Ernest! You scared arh? Why you sit so close to me and hold so tight?
-Ernest nods-
UJ: You better don't hold so tight leh, after the ride your hand cannot let go how?
-Raymond and I laughed-
UJ: Don't hold so tight leh, later you pull the whole thing off, not only you scared, I also scared arh.
They headed off to play spinner and since me and Raymond are the lousy dizzy freaks we ran off to queue up for corkscrew (and at the same time go a few rounds by ourselves) and GUESS WHAT? By the time everyone came the ride was CLOSED. Muahaha raymond and I were sitting in the carriage laughing at everyone who had this "not fair" look on their face [including sis]
After that we walked for a while and then decided to take a photo at this [artificial] waterfall. We were taking a kids photo then after we were done Teri beamed and said "OKAY ADULTS YOUR TURN!!" cuteness. Then kang pointed to the waterfall and asked "How do you play this?" hahahaha. Raymond crushes kang. Even when kang asked him why he had a pimple on his nose [kang's only 7] Raymond just started laughing. But it's true; Kang giggles cute<3.>
Didn't shop much there. Things at Genting aren't exactly very cheap. But I did hit a Nike/Adidas sale on the way home and got myself
new shoes!
Brilliant. Blue Nikes. Pretty.
Long post sia. I doubt anyone will read the whole thing. Ok wth mom's acting like a total grandma. Sheesh.
Sorry gor. Yes I was angry that you sent me to that dumb counselling session with Darren but I know you meant well. Love you and you.
As little children
We would dream of Christmas morn
Of all the gifts and toys
We knew we'd find
But we never realized
A baby born one blessed night
Gave us the greatest gift of our lives
We were the reason
That He gave His life
We were the reason
That He suffered and died
To a world that was lost
He gave all He could give
To show us the reason to live
As the years went by
We learned more about gifts
The giving of ourselves
And what that means
On a dark and cloudy day
A man hung crying in the rain
All because of love, all because of love
I've finally found the reason for living
It's in giving every part of my heart to Him
In all that I do every word that I say
I'll be giving my all just for Him, for Him
He is my reason to live
