Goodbye weekend
18th November
Alritey, enuff of ctrl c, ctrl v for old bananasaviour blogs. The purpose of that is so that we can read back and reminisce on old times. Yep. So let me catch up on the backlog of events.
Next is the Pasta Mania and 'goodbye for the weekend' episode.
So, Shutch and myself were to pay for the air tickets at Adelphi. The company is splitting to market our products to the world - to the East and to the West. Pengy jiejie and Papa Ken to Taiwan and HK and Shutch and myself to NY. So cool hor... Haha! Somehow I wish we had gotten to know each other better before and then we could have gone on a long holiday together! Nevermind, there will be times when all 4 directorsgo for a retreat! Hee. Maybe to Perhentian for snorkelling? =)
Yep, returning from the tangent... the meeting was rather impromptu. Cos I figured that we wouldn't see each other over the weekend cos I was going to Phuket with my friends and shutch was going to Johor for a church retreat. So i thought mebbe we could meet for lunch before mah. So although Pengy had GESL in the afternoon, she still came to meet us for lunch. Ken popped up from somewhere too! Hahah! Oops. Anyway, we went to pay for the tickets at Adelphi (opposite Funan) first. I've never been inside before. Quite ulu-ated... selling high-end speakers and stuff.... Hmm, we went up the escalator looking for the tour agency. We spotted the agency's board before we spotted the shop. Then as we walked towards it, we realised that it was rather dark inside and for a moment, our hearts stopped. (Oh no! You mean the tour agency is really phony and THAT dodgy and we had been had?!! Cos you must understand that this agency was recommended by Wesley to Shutch! Hahaha!) Anyway, we spotted a shop at the corner... in operation! And we both burst out laughing! Hahahah! But it's still strange cos the agency is Indian-based... with Indian gods in it and stuff. Hmmm... strange. And quite unprofessional one... either pay cash or transfer money into their account... no NETS one! Aiyoh!
Anyway, Ken chose pasta from the "anything" answer. Heh. So Pasta Mania it was, at Funan. We waited for Pengy there. Pasta tehre so-so only lah... cun wait to eat my Italian pasta!! Haha! And poor Pengy din eat the bacon cos it was too salty? Heh. And during lunch, I tried to dissuade her from going to SPCA for GESL! hahaha! So eville! Oh well, Ken drove all of us to SPCA anyway, and left Pengy there. Then we sent Shutch to Kranji MRT where she would take the bus to Johor. And I believe they laughed at her pink Tigger handphone pouch which Pengy bought her! Hee. (I think people might laugh at her PINK winter jacket too! Haha! No lah... you look really good in it! Hee) And then we went to pick Pengy up again... she had done nothing there lah... so dumbo leh GESL... Haha! But I like this impromptu-ness... it only happens when we like each other enuff. Then it was my turn for the airport. Thank you Papa Ken!! Yep... just 1 of the many times going to the airport in a matter of a few days. Sigh... it's not cheap somemore! Why do we have to fly at night and/or early in the morning?!! Taxi fares can KILL leh!
Yep, and that started the weekend.
I went snorkelling at Phi Phi island. It was really fun to see all the fishes so near you... and if you dun move, they dun suspect that you are a foreign being... or mebbe fishies are just curious. They come banging into your snorkelling mask... but they bit me too lah. Haha! Really cool when they throw bread down near you... then all the fishies come up to you! hee. but not when they threw a piece of bread and it landed in the woman's swimsuit! Hahaha! Imagine her screaming and whacking the water (and fishies)! Hahahhaa! I had a good show... *eville*
Yep so here are some photos....
No seafood! That was the only problem. Heh. And I wish I had asked you all what you all wanted, earlier. So yeah, now I only have dead corals. Haha! And letters. Sorry I only wrote letters to the girls lah... Hahha! But it doesn't mean that I dun miss you as well.... Cos all the time when I was there, especially the snorkelling part and the food part, I wished we were all there on holiday too!
Something geographical...
Wave coming in thru the notch.
Island from the airplane
Rocks at beach
We should really plan for a weekend getaway...
