September Holiday Part I
Batam Trip (24/09 - 26/09)
Batam trip was enjoyable, at least for a short getaway, I guess. Tour was alright, I guess, just a little draggy. Overall, the things there were affordable, but I guess I overspent a little too much. Massage was not bad at all, and A & W was good, but language was a barrier that I hate. Gokart, water cycling and shopping, Insidious 2. Hotel was not too bad, just that lighting in toilet can be improved. Beer and alcohol for both nights, as usual. Cool trip with cool mates, just that I'm still pretty quiet throughout the trip. I feel a little drifted from my mates. Street foods were good and cheap, like really cheap. The shag feeling of coming back to Singapore again.
Secondary School Gathering (27/09)
It's the usual meetup but Happy birthday to Annabelle and Karin! Good catch up with so many secondary school people that day at Timbre, with good food followed by ice cream at Upper Thomson.
Primary School Gathering (30/09)
So glad I agreed to attend this gathering, get to see my childhood mates, after a long time of 9 years. Indeed a long time, but good to see all doing so well in life. 15 of them turned up, breaking previous record according to Liting.
Ice Skating (02/10)
So much for the first time, I nearly broke my knee and arms while trying to ice skate. It was not easy but I guess I don't even know how to fall properly. Runner runner was a good movie, but comparing to Batam's theatre, Shaw was nothing, though I have yet to try IMAX. Ice Hockey was a fantastic game, especially watching it live after our movie. Comments of me, is still depressed, and sad. People claim I bring sadness with me wherever I go, and I guess it's not true for the time I spent in Korea as a tourist.
At least, a good summary of recent events for me. I guess I have to save up a little. Can't wait for driving lessons, but thinking of FYP gives me headache, and I sense internal competition which I've no intention of competing. I need to get out of this comfort zone before it's too late.
