zzzzzzzzzz....feeling so bored in the office...which is rare cuz its MONDAY!!! but touch wood lah.....maybe cuz i had to do like 4 proposals last few weeks at the same time so now its "relax" time. oh well, better enjoy it while it last.
quite pissed that had to pay $336 for a burnt table in bintan! warning to all ....NEXT TIME...DO NOT put the portable bbq pit on a poolside table!!! no matter how sturdy the table looks! it WILL BURN!!! quite funny cuz during the beg of the bbq, somebody asked "hey...will it melt the plastic?" and everyone looked under the table and said "looks fine and continued bbq.."
then the food got cooked real fast as the heat was quite intense....i said "wah this portable pit not bad ah......so effective and so convenient! hhehhehe"....at the end of the dinner, while clearing up...the shock came!!! "er...rob rob...come and see this ah....." newspapers were removed and 2 big burnt holes appeared on the white tables!!! aiyo! siow liao.....the plastic melted and driped down like a candle wax ...below the table were rather beautiful formation of the masmellow like plastic.......haha.....oh no...how much will this cost us man......and any way to dispose evidence?
maybe throw in the sea! hee....no lah, my company will know of it...sian...
no wonder there was a caramel like smell earlier, it was odd but not unbearable .......please ah touch wood...hope this plastic thingy is not cancerous!
i though this might end up like $300 a table cuz outdoor poolside furniture - the good ones are expensive. Plus hotel cut throat prices....ooohh...:( but oh well, at least below my estimation. but they converted the bill in SGD to Rupiah ...terrible lah...at 5700 rate. so a little bit more than the $336. none the less, the weekend was fun! good to getaway from spore and just chill out at a resort. the buggy attached was quite a highlight for all. haha. those that do not have license had chance to drive.
the bintan resorts are usually full of Sporeans (where else can we go for a quick getaway?) but last weekend, less sporeans cuz of polling. nonetheless, the spore expatriates and korean tourists made up for the visitors. find it quite amazing where so many korean tourists in bintan? its been like this for the past 3 years. after all it was not Bali...in fact just a small island off Spore and basically have to come thru spore to visit bintan (easier way). the massues (massage woman..haha) said that many of them come for honeymoon and added they all marry young like 20s. whereas spore couples who come all like 30s or late 20s. they like the sunny weather cuz korea is normally cold...and suggested i go korea for my honeymoon next time as its cool and nice...not like Spore and Bintan... javaese massage is fantastic....just different from those massage in spore. dunno why, but they massage well and you feel the blood circulating and you feel very relaxed. for $38 an hour, they will come to your room for the massage. and i heard some sporeans massage every day whjile they are there esp those playing golf. wow....what a life
when going back at the ferry terminal, saw class 95 DJ rod monterio.....he was there too...played golf i presume. i do find his shows quite funny on radio...although corny but will make u laugh. he is better than glenn ong. and music is also geared towards good 80s stuff. anyway, the ferry terminal was full, i guess sunday evening was the most popular timing. before the gates open, pple were queing up already from the glass door. i know in everyone's heart, we all wanna rush for good seats and not sit with strangers. when door open, everyone sort of rushed towards ferry quickly.....a bit kiasu action....as expected Rod commented on this on his show yesterday...saying that why sporeans so kiasu etc etc...resort shld relax lah......say how he was suprised pple acted this way....i felt like calling in!! as if he didnt rush to the door when its time for boarding? did he seat down and waited till everyone board then he board...no man!
although its yeah, kiasu beahviour but lets face it if you dun walk quickly of line up earlier, trust me you are going to end up in some corner seat alone! or look silly walking up and down the arles looking for a seat. further more of course famililies wanna seat together. i find as long its not running and pushing pple ok lah. but i am sure he is guilty of it.
Angsoka villa!
