::redang+camp::
Wa, it's been so long since I last blogged!!! Anyway, today is bixia's birthday!! YAY! Happy birthday!! I hope I can get your present soon. =p
Redang was ok kind of fun. I guess I won't be going back there anymore. Frankly, it's a rather boring place. Snorkelling like the only thing to do unless you want to pay more money to go diving and other crap stuff. And there's no jet skiing and water skiiing!!! There's nothing much to do there. We spent a lot of time lingering on the beach doing nothing. It's even more meaningless than mapling. And snorkelling is totally not for me. I hate the fishes especially when they come in schools. We get to feed the fishes in the marine park and when they see the food they come towards you and start pecking your food and you. I only feel relaxed in deeper waters when the fishes are far away. Weird me. When I see pomfrets swimming around I start thinking about them as food. There were eels and sharks and sea cucumbers [they look damn black] and plenty of colourful fishes and reefs. The sea was pretty blue in the marine park. In the open sea, it's mainly a green tone, although my friends disagree with me about that point. Some corals were rather tall and people were standing on them and you could see that the top part was already dead!!! OMG!! Poor reefs. We also saw clown fishes swimming in the anemone!!! It's actually quite an eye opener but still, snorkelling isn't for me as mentioned. The best part of the snorkelling trip was actually the time on the boat. It takes 15 to 30min to reach the destination from the resort and it's really nice with the wind blowing against your face and the sea spray and scenery. There's this tiny piece of land in the middle of the sea that's only composed of sand and nothing else [like the one Ayu was dancing on at the beginning of the BLUE BIRD mv]! Thought that was really cool. Plus we saw blue sand at night!
Now about the resort. It's beautiful and big with ok rooms. Easily the nicest looking resort on the island. [Saw nearly all of them because they shared the same beach] But it didn't give me the impression that it's a five star hotel. If I didn't see the other resorts, I would feel rather differently. The food looks good but doesn't always taste good. I would say breakfast was the best meal!
When I was in Redang, I kept thinking of LJK!!! But when I was in camp, LJK hardly popped up. This shows how occupied I was in camp and how slack I was in Redang. Now that I'm back from camp, I am no longer very interested in LJK!!! OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Even after watching King and the Clown again I still feel nothing much toward him!!!!! OH NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
Now about camp. When I reached home on Tuesday it was already 9+ at night. And I still had to pack for my camp!! In the end I slept at around 1am and woke at 5am in order to reach NTU by 730. But anyway I was still late. My OG was mainly guys, there were only 3 girls! Ching told me the organisers had to reject a lot of guys because too few girls participated. Camp was FUN!!! But I kind of regretted being myself [the recluse that refuse to talk] and missing the first 2 days of it. Missed fright night which was on day 1. I never got frightened at fright nights because I was the one frightening other people as station master [though not always successful o.O]. Ran a lot for Amazing Race and it was made worse with my shorts being too loose and felt like falling off every time I started running. Man, that sucked. Shouldn't have worn that pair. It seemed that the organisers like to have the kind of matchmaking stuff that didn't kind of work for me because I was either too tired or too pissed to talk to anyone. We had a campfire, spent a night at Sentosa, played some really barbaric beach games, spent a night blindfolded and had SP night. Now I feel very lazy to continue describing the camp!!!! But the thing is I didn't regret going for it \\(^~^ )( ^~^)//.
By the way, I went for the MJ concert yesterday. They invited the Aichi Meiden High School Band from Japan to perform and man, they were really very very good!!!!!!!! MJCSB was already a gold band but in comparison to the Meiden High School band, they appeared to be rather mediocre. I was damn shagged at that time due to the fact that I just broke camp but listening to their music made me high!! They could even double up as a choir!!.. and cheerleaders!!! And they had really kawaii MCs!!
Just now my mom brought us to this Japanese restaurant at Katong. I finally tasted the curry rice!!! SO HAPPY!!!! Going to start dieting again tomorrow. I think I grew fatter after camp. My feet sort of feels swollen and my face got darker!! Entire legs ache like mad. Got cuts all over and there's a mildly painful bump on the head and face. Super sleepy now....
