on bali, diving and car rides.
2nd night in bali but felt like I have been here for more than that. Spend the first night in Sanur, accomodation was about 35sgd per pax. Nice and cosy enough with a delightful French owner. Went to their night market to tabao back some dinner after booking our tours.
The place looks and feel even more laid back then krabi but their people is as nice, if not better.
It's interesting to talk to people when we start off on the same topic then each went each way and leaving each other to laugh. Then we say good day and good bye. No strings attached.
Went diving early today with the intention of swimming with mola mola but was not lucky enough. But some mantas decided to show themselves over our head. Again and again. Everytime the divemaster points up, I will look up, hold my breath and say a silent "wah......" while the mantas glide past, oblivious to the tens of divers underneath. I'm sure most were holding their breath or letting go in small breath in case the bubbles deter the mantas from gliding over. Loving diving still.
Den we went down towards the sea bed and I could see nothin but sand, dull corals and some fishy. Until my fm picked up a metal stick and tap on some sand. Woosh.. check up that hidden stingray getting away in fright. Reminded me of darcy when I will purposely slap his butt when he's sleeping with his face facing away from me. Haha. So fun. I saw a few more rays trying to camouflage themselves, unsuccessful. All the while shivering in my wet suit. My goodness. It was 20 degrees in the water.
After we surface and went back on the boat, I was shivering very badly until the kind Holland 叔叔 handed me his towel. Den I felt better. I sleep up my 2nd dive as I really couldn't take it and I was feeling super tired. I heard from the dm that it was due to my body losing too much heat. Anyway, I slept. I reckon I was and still is very tired from work, short sleeping hours and heat loss.
Took a pre-arranged transport to Amed. Took us about 2hrs to reach this supposedly sleepy fishing village but is slowly becoming another tourist attraction.
Now, after dinner and showering under the stars (which is not such a good idea when the cold breeze blows), waiting for the hair to dry while listening to the waves falling onto shore and checking out the blinks blinks hanging in the skies. Will I be able to own a house like this next time?
Diving tmr@ 8am. Wish my luck for my sunrise quest tmr.
Goodbye 27!

一步一步的走向明天。
Time flies when you least expect it to. Sept has always been my fav month but somehow it has pass me by. Leaving only 3 days for me to pick myself up.
Life has always been kind to me. Giving me more than I deserve but yet, there will never be enough.
Not enough of this not enough of that. Unhappy because of this then that. Once again, it has become a chore to be happy. I feel like I'm losing myself. I have become someone who has given up hope on ppl and couldn't care. It's everyone for themselves. It doesn't matter how much you have done in the past, its the present that matters.
I want to find back me before I lose to depression. Will i?

pride of singapore
A conversation between a group of taiwanese tourists and me
Tw: 不好意思，请问一下滨海艺术展览馆在哪?
Me: ..pause.. 是esplanade 吗?
Tw: ..pause.. 是那两粒大榴莲。在哪?
Me: 哦。这里上去就是了。
Well done SG!
Actually, I should have corrected them. It's 1 not 2 big durians. It's 2 halves.

what will you do??
Do you...
1. Shift him to the edge of the bed to teach him a lesson, when he turn n drop off the bed? Or
2. Lies there and let him kicks as he is your darling pet? Or
3. Logon to Blogger and write a post on your sleeping dog?
Drinking coffee milk aft dinner is not a wise choice..

the little things tt woke me up this morning.
The first was the sight tt greeted me when I step on board the mrt at 6am.
I saw this upper secondary (geeky looking) sch boy holding 2 similar bouquets of roses. One red, one yellow.
First thought, "what was he thinking? Giving 2 girls similar looking bouquets? 没死过?"
Next was "wow, a geek yet he has 2 girls to give flowers to.. impressive!"
Then was "it it some special occasion today? 东方情人节？"
Next came "wait. Did he lose a bet? Hence being sabotage."
Finally, Eureka!
HAPPY TEACHERS' DAY!
But still, a bit wrong to give your teacher roses. Esp red roses!
