Bintan 31 May - 2nd Jun 06

well, aft coming hm for abt a week, i left for Bintan with 6 other classmates. It was fun, very fun. I bunked with Stella & Jess, slept in the surprisingly comfy extra bed. On the 1st day, Bintan shocked us with a thunderstorm, so we came up with the silly idea of teru teru bozu or qing tian wa wa, made with tissue & strands of hair. lol. The rain did stop shortly aft, but we realised later that was the norm in bintan & not cos of our teru teru bozu.

Aft which we went swimming in the pool at Nirwana, & most of us ordered 'Snowy' at the poolbar. Cheap & nice! Most of the time jus lookin at shuai ges & mei nus hehe. not really lah. Cos not much pple there.

2nd day we went for seasports, banana boat was fun! the other 3 jap gals sitting behind us were loud n funny, they kept laughing & i couldnt help but laughed with them.

aft banana boat we went scuba diving. it was then i got seasick, i wasnt feeling much on the boat but when i got into the sea, it was terrible. Although i didnt hav my glasses with me, but i did manage to see the fishes & some very blur corals. i liked it but the seasickness was gettin to me, so i tried to stable myself with a protuding rock (or so it seems) but scratched my hand & leg instead. a guide then helped me by holding my hand & guiding me ard the place, it did feel better when i was facing down toward the sea. Time seemed to pass faster, the guide tried to show me some fishes & corals but it was slightly deeper & couldnt see anything but tried to pretend i could see it. lol. silly i know.

anyway, the guide is my hero aft tt. lol. Aft scuba diving, as i was still feelin unwell & tt my hand was bleeding. i didnt join the rest for a 2nd round of banana boat. it was much much more fun & exhilirating than the 1st, & Jas fell into the sea whereas Stella & Qing fell inwards into the boat.

When we least expected, Jess got stung by a jellyfish. They were gettin off the banana boat & wading to shore when it happened. Jean & i didnt suspect a thing until we saw the guide(same person tt guided me) rushing onshore to get vinegar(i think) to spray on Jess's leg. Poor Jess, but her leg is more or less better now, just hav to stay away from seafood.

Later then i realised it was the guide that grabbed the jellyfish away frm Jess's leg n threw it on the shore. So basically he is both our hero. but too bad we didnt get to take a pic with him. haiz. lol.

oh & till now i'm still scared of Lay's BBQ flavoured chips, & any other chips tt share a resemblance to it, cos of i had too much of it on the last day.

It was fun, i love the beach, i love the sun (though i hate getting dark), i simply love the place, & of cos e pple. I look forward to the next trip, somewhere else most likely.
