♥ 8:45 PM
haven't been blogging that often.
just came back from a well deserve trip to bali. actually is quite hard to believe that i am back in singapore and when monday come i will be giving instructions, taking care of the guys in camp, doing servicing and back to the regimental life.
how i wish i can wake up at 9 take my time go for breakfast with the amazing view of bali welcoming me. go for a short swim before taking the shuttle bus to kuta. heckling with the locals before getting our stuffs, going for all kinds of water sports, etc. they say good things never last. seem like i just woke up from a good dream.
i can stand by this when i say i have no prob staying there for a good 6 months before coming back to singapore. which led me to ponder to the future maybe when i make it big and everything is settled here in singapore i am gonna get a house. ok not a house at bali but at australia and shuttle between singapore and australia spending half a year in each country without renouncing my singapore passport.
excluding JB i think the last time i took a plane and travel oversea was 6 years ago after my N level i went to japan. although i really feel sad and find it hard to come back to reality, the good thing is me and my friends we are probably gonna plan a Bali 2 or maybe to some other country. at the mean time i am definately saving up to go either japan, usa or europe next year for my ORD trip although initially i thought of heading to spain. but all could change.
i think Bali is amazing. i think if you asked around no one will tell you they spent 6 days there but thats how long me and my camp mates spent at there. not a day was filled with boredom. for me the highlight is definately the river rafting followed by me finally getting a tattoo.
spent abt 800 to 900 down there. but is all worth it! time spent with my close friends in army and also getting to experience alot of new things.
i have been trying to shed off some of the old image and probably infuse some new image. i can say that this trip really lead me to know myself even more and also slowly changing me. also i need to thank my wonderful friends for helping me. although i always am the butt of johnny's jokes.
i must say that our trip is sort of supposed to be model after this movie "THE HANGOVER". The main plot follows four friends who travel to
Las Vegas for a
bachelor party, only to wake up the next morning not remembering a thing and missing the groom, whose wedding is scheduled to occur the next day. minus the dazzling las vegas and bachelor party and groom.
ok there was no hangover at all. but we wanted to model it like this movie and kindda sabo our friend nickname white hair. but in the end i think i ended up being the one whose spot rightfully should belong to him.
i don't really remember buying anything for my mom. going there i see tim and johnny getting stuffs for their gf and family. plus my 3 other friends who are still single getting stuffs for their parents i was like the only one there spending the least as in buying very little stuffs. decided to spend US$50 dollar on a top for my mom. ponder for a few days which one to get for her. in the end decided to get the top from this shop call ULUWATU. that shop sell handmade top, dress etc.
wanted to get that dress for my mom if i was attach i would have gotten that beautiful dress for my gf. but it cost a bomb US$100. so in the end settle for something that is half that amount as i could see a huge hole on my pockets. my friends were telling me to get XS for my mom as most of them saw my mom before. however i bulk at that idea even though my mom is petite but definately not XS. got a S and i am glad it fit her real nice. even my dad commented that the top look pretty.
scored another point in the family history book.
even good dreams will come to an end. adjusting back to singapore life. toning down the havoc side. and can't wait to ORD which is like in 7 months - 8 months.
