after D's POP on 12th May, it's a long 12 days leave back to civilian life again. booked a short holiday -just the 2 of us- fully sponsored by my dear. hah. and we're off to Nirwana Bintan again! we went last June.. and we're back again this year! swear i'm not going back there any time soon!!
my cookies! just as I imagined ourselves to be when eating it =)
the STUPID camera tripod is so damn freaky SHORT! the wind blow and my camera toppled over! see how short is it in compare with the Pringles can!! ARGH! is that even named TRIPOD?!?!
in the end still need the old fashion way to take photo -_- wind-prove
some people out there collecting dead corals.. those that are washed ashore bcuz of the monsoon season. sigh sigh. poor corals
like wad soci of tourism said. we used photography to slice out a neat piece of time. eliminating the unwanted and including the desired. these photos are such example.. the way i want to frame my memories in according to these picturesque photos. so that when i recall, I remember the touristic formulated sights. well, at least it makes me happy even though it appears shallow and touristic
my Snorlax doing his job -_- thats why i had nothing to do but take photos
wow i think there are a little bit of resemblance.. hahaha!
dinner time! waiting for food to be ready.. we took a walk down the beach area
chicken chicken chicken!! wads new when there's Derrick!! food in Nirwana is really good! never disappointing! always up to the standard and never deviate from the past! love it!
some weekend night party at the Beach Club. plenty of sleazy dancers and weird weird ang mohs around scouting for -----
back to the hotel to end the night, I've prepared cake, cream and cherries back at home to surprise Derrick. a mini-celebration for our 6 years 1 month anniversary. hah. was so worried that I can't pass the custom cuz of so much food! and =D i think i'm smart in transporting the cake there =)sliced cake, chocolate cream and cherries in the plastic bags. frozen for the long journey =)and I did all the preparation while he's in the toilet!
=) surprise cake! just nice for supper!
Happy 6 years 1 month anniversary!
Next day, did some recreation and sea sports. damn i'm bad at using rifle! 25 bullets and NOT ONE got the cans! I can't even hear the cling sound!
archery next.
derrick's result board. hah. not as good as mine! hahaha i shoot OVER, above and through the board =D and i concluded, it's such a lame sport. i rather step ants.
derrick doing his magic =) trying to be romantic using the old trick
exactly 6 years 1 month! =)
lunch! food food food! the only thing we look forward there!
thin crust pizza with salami!
seasports at the beach, cold beer under the sun. I feel alive again! haha
the dinner was damn filling! too much food! we had a great laugh after seeing his humongous tummy! 1 and 1/2 bowl of rice + 4 man tou is no joke! haha!
end of holiday! 3 days 2 nights felt like just one day. the 12 days POP leave felt like 12 hours only. sigh sigh. these 12 days I practically disappeared from the surface of earth and submerged myself in his world. fairy tale is over! now it's time for serious work and date lines to meet. exam in one month's time--I've lost track of school life, readings and family time. aarrhhh!!!
