new zzzzzz record!
hmmm...pretty long time since i blogged.
yup, jus returned from my cruise fri noon :)
n slept until afternoon today~!!
15hrs of continuos sleep man. then woke for 2-3hrs play compt then go back sleep for 3-4hrs...ummm...19hrs of sleep in total??
gawwd.
yeah, din get enuf sleep on the ship cos was so busy playing away the two nites there =p
to summarize, its two whole days of shopping, eating n jacuzzi and 2 whole nites of singing, drinking n flirting ;p
hmmm... really an ego booster being with the sweet-talkers onboard.
they must have eaten honey n chocolate syrup every meal to develop their glib tongues man. haha, but its onli wif xiang that i can get the courage to flirt so...hmmm...how can i describe it... pro?? cos its not like we throw ourselves at them (more like the opposite?) or that we deliberately sek any attention from them, or even initiate any chats. jus harmless flirtings n endless small (albeit sweet) talks.
haha, xiang even bluffed a bar-tender (a pretty suave looking indian, charming n eloquent speaker, engineering grad...no wonder) at the karaoke lounge we were in that it was my birthday that nite n he promised to get me a present... which he really got me the next nite!
wow... so nice of him... n we'd onli met for a short while (couple of hrs) n he'd taken us for our word. n he'd even gotten me a birthday cake when we went down the second nite! as in really paid for it himself. one of the waitress saw him giving us the cake n was bout to go up n tick him off even, before he stopped her n told her that the cake was on his bill. so sweet of him... felt abit guilty =/ cos xiang n i got the impression initially that the workers onboard starcruise are low labour workers (most of the waitresses n cleaners are at any rate). but he seems ok i guess...else cant be ang mohs also go onboard be bar tenders rite?? else wat they earn?
anyway, we dedicated a song to him after that in return: "how do i live".
one of the onli few english songs we'd practiced the nite before =p
how fortunate issit that its a song he liked n that he'd noticed us singing the nite before?? its a "nice song" n i had a "very nice voice" (think a bright-eyed sincere look).
Lolx! tell me he has not eaten honey or wat?? =p
but then again, we'd dedicated the song to him so cant say its not good rite?? haha.
yup. had an outrageous n worry-free time flirting onboard wif my best fren; wat wif all the "pretty gals" n other lavish praises n compliments we'd heard the 2 days onboard ;p keke. but yeah... all cos xiang's so beautiful. gave us so much trouble trying to shake off all those bumble bees after our honey trail =p haha.
oh! did i mention that we'd been mistaken for sisters so many times?? i didn't? well, i say now... everywhere we go pple tot we're sisters cos we look so alike! they din ask or anything, jus assume. while they're taking photos, at the receptions, at restaurants, while collecting photos, while flirting/small chat-ting, on deck, everywhere! ahaha =p
finally!! after 8 years of being together we've finally STARTED to look like each other as best frens shd! :p
Lolx~
so happy. cos xiang's pretty so looking like her shd make me not that bad too rite?? ;p ahahaha~!! ok ok, i thick skin =p Lolx.
hmmm.... back to singapore now =/
such a change from the carefree live onboard.
most obvious being the horrid change in weather!! =[
hot hot hot n humid back in singapore!!
not to mention all the stress n noise as soon as i touched land.
my sis asking me to meet her to study (imagine!), xiang n hairy, etc etc.
sigh... prefer to go back to the stress-free n carefree life on board n jus enjoy the feeling of being pampered =/
thats y i switched off my handphones the moment i reached home, before i slept like there's no tomorrow! yup. no alarms, msgs, calls to wake me up *chuckles* =p
slept away lyn's cries n whinings, xiang's wake-up calls, glo's n the class' disastrous announcements of my prelim results and even mrs. chua's calls to wake us up to go bt!! *whoots*
ok, i shdn't be happy i hide from my stress so recklessly...but imagine...15 straight hours of sleep?!!
Lolx~!! plus the 4 hrs nap after that...think i've set a new record to top or at least, even my last zzzzzzz record le ;p ahahaha!
been down to bt at nite wif xiang (jus now).
supposed to have gone down on fri nite after the cruise one, but the two of us slept like that le boh pian. n mrs.chua even left me voicemails when she couldn't get me... so busy on a fri nite n she was giving me n xiang wake up calls so we wud go down...she's the boss for god's sake!
felt bad... but reflecting on the 15hrs of sleep?? worth it :p haha.
so went down tonite to make up for yesterday.
quiet nite as usual on a sat nite. onli sand a few songs cos our voice was hoarse from singing on the cruise le =p
n ah hock was there!
hohoho ;p
chat wif him for quite some time.
n really...we cant judge pple from their looks...he's damn rich man, the chou ah beng!!
an engineer/doctor working at KK hospital, drives a good car, lives in a good house, etc etc (ok, we were joking in chinese so it may turn out wierd translated like that).
ok, shan't tok bout him anymore... dun wan to give xiang more materials to tease me about le. she's still teasing me bout my entry bout his "nice, broad hands!!" from dunno how many ages ago arh! hmph =[
but yeah, every nite at bt is a heartwarming one....
felt so welcomed n at ease wif judy n mrs. chua :)
judy has the nicest hugs any person could give...prob cos she's so lavish wif them n so substantial to hug?? haha, nah, that did sound to good...but she's really nice to hug, like a big teddy bear. n her hug is very generous n unheld-back...a big bear-hug. me like =)
felt so pampered n taken care of there.
haha, wat can i say?? i like being pampered =p
oh, i havent mentioned have i??
i'm suffering from a flu n a congested nose n face now!
*grrrrrrr*
all cos of the sudden change in weather/temp when we disembark from the cool ship (at the international waters) onto land in scorching singapore (at mid-day! imagine).
hate being sick.
prob oso half the reason y i slept so long oso =/
wun be surprise if i repeat history tml.
so pple, dun call me.
i'll call u.
p.s glo! dun need wait for shihan or gil to jio u go swimming! i oso wan to tan!! go someday next weekend or wat ya?? after my dratted nose stop leaking....grrrrrrr >.<
