hey pple, i'm back from batam!

fri, sat, sun! my weekend was great!

thurs evening after meeting at buona vista, i went to dover to look for hc, met up with him for awhile b4 he start his training..then i headed back home for dinner and replenish the guava appetizer..(new found fav! guava with preserved orange peels..yummy!) and well, did final packing of my stuffs for the batam trip..

fri morning dropped by amk and joined hc, headed to harbourfront to meet mq,jas and her parents..had mac for breakfast..then headed in to the ferry terminal..very malu thou, for both mq and me..cos it was our first time using the system..so we didnt know how to scan the passport! tried a couple of times till the uncles behind helped us with it.. :) haha..

ARRIVED AT BATAM! time diff, 1 hr earlier than sg time..

CABLE SKIING:

FUN! and tired! cos i dont have much strength to pull myself..so i only tried a few times for the kneeling one..still didnt manage to complete a single round..kept dying at the junction..so sian lah! and the mud there very soggy..rather swim back to the start zone.. =P but got motorbike to fetch us if we dropped very far away..which is good! no need to walk all the way back..

tried the standing one once..erm..cannot make it..haha..will be going again next time to see whether my arms are stronger..

mq very cute lor..kept insisted on swimming back after she fell at the other end..haha..and jas knocked her wrist..poor her..she also cute..kept saying that her hand will rot..haha..hc most pro..tried alot of times..and played stunts..cool uh! :)

anyway kinda sad that it rained..but still managed to play other than the lightning part..played cards and pool while having lightning..and the lunch there was ok thou..still edible..everything taste not bad when you're hungry~

got other groups of pple playing too..one big group, a couple and got a few caucasians also..

yup anyway
now having muscle aches already..

took a cab back to the holiday inn resort! and it is very nice..5star hotel suite..with bath tub in the masterbed room somemore..nice nice..with carmen's corporate rate,it's damn worth the money!
- damage cab S$2 and hotel S$155/4=S$39 -

had dinner with carmen and his dad at the dragon inn restaurant in the evening..buffet stlye..so erm, ate alot..and was very full..
- damage S$20 -

- damage, i not sure -

back to hotel, showered, played cards with all and watched tv..then time to slp.. :)

sat's breakfast was sumptuous..buffet also ahh..so we ate alot again..haha..then went to play with the pool and slide..soak ourselves abit b4 checking out of the hotel..mq and jas went off first..cos they only stayed for a night..and had to go back due to some other programmes lined up for them..

so me and hc waited for carmen and her staffs, then went to the bowling alley..played quite alot, i think 2 games..and i broke my thumbnail! carmen broke 2 of her nails too! was the last group in her company..then played some arcade games, shopped ard and headed for dinner at seagull~ erm not rainbow..haha..her dad kept rmb wrongly..

sat night went over to carmen's place to stay..saved on lodging..played cards again..consider myself unlucky..cos 3pple play, the diamond 3 gets the odd card..whenever the odd card is small, then i'll get the diamond 3..proven! so suay!

anyway..had a good night there too..bakkutteh breakfast was good, then off to the megamall to slack and played arcades..got 300+ tickets and redeemed for 3 ice-cream cones and a diced-sharpener.. :)
