Kissed by the sun

Im burnt.

At first, i thought the red glowy-ness of my skin's kinda cool..and the fact that somehow, the combination of sun and saltwater tightens your skin into a naturally botoxed state was splendid....then the reverse happened...

Red has turned to black..and my tight skin has given way to flaky skin...Gargh.

Tioman was fantastic nonetheless. A nice, quick getaway sums it up. Went snorkelling and stuff. So nice!! The waters are pristine and definitely inviting. If only the waters in singapore arent so polluted. Maybe then i'd venture to swim at the beaches here. In any case, its good that the beaches in Malaysia are nice enough. It took me only 4-6 hours to get to Tioman. Nice.

The journey home was scary tho. It was raining and so the little speedboat we were on had to brave the choppy waves. Each time we collided with an incoming wave, it felt like we were hitting concrete. I've never been so afraid....we were at the mercy of the vast sea. But faith...a whole lot of it calmed me..and i know we'd be okay. If youve ever watched the movie A Perfect Storm or the likes of that, then im sure you'll know what i mean by choppy. And scary.

After surviving that 1 hour ride, we landed safely in Mersing only to almost fall prey into the hands of this cheat-of-a-driver. He wanted to charge us his "special" price of RM$240 to singapore. What rubbish. We paid only RM$110 to get to Mersing. I guess he saw my dad's golf clubs and expected us to be willing to pay. He kept tailing us even though my dad said No. Eventually, he brought it down to RM$120. So we agreed. Then, even before we left, he pretended that he needed some money for gas and that he was out of it. He kept turning the ignition switch when my dad told us that he saw the tank was full....so the guy dropped us off at the gas station and went off! (he could still drive off when he claims his tank was empty?!!) Then, another car from behind, which my dad thinks had been tailing us, offered to send us back. So dubious. Luckily, a bus to Johor was parked at the station.We hopped on the bus and were off. From there, we took the singapore-JB express and my gosh, i felt so safe to reach the singapore immigration. So safe.

Bidding has commenced! I hope i get the mods i want. So far, i only need to bid for abnormal psych in this round.

Going to run some errands with my sister in a while...and i have YET to clear my room and revise my french...

PROCRASTINATION is EVIL.
