gab's 21st

The long awaited trip on a cruise with my fellow secondary sch friends came! and went just like that.

Anw, Im glad I went. Many many many thanks to gabriel for the treat and his family for being the host.
its been a long time since I've been on a cruise, and virgo - such a huge ship - and with friends at that.

1st day was spent on checking in, dinner, bingo and board games!
playing Janga while the ship/sea was rolling at its worst.
and k-boxing. 
shared a room with mel, matthew and clarence.

2nd day was the most memorable one.
breakfast, mini golf, and then to Rendang island.

snorkeling! long wanted to do this.
the person didnt really teach us how to use the mask and we end up tasting lots and lots of horribly saly water.
i got some scratches on the corrals.
but with the bread we bought, we managed to get up close to the fishes.
different fishes of colours and sizes.
love the expereince. hoped to do scuba diving some day too!
too bad, we had no photography equipment and had to ask a random stranger to take and hopes she rmb to facebook us some day.

spent the rest of the day at the other part of the island eating, buying souvenirs at the lone shop and watching ppl at the beach.

tried the new slides when we went back to the ship.
it attracted us so much we tried for 3 times! lol
and the jacuzzi.

dinner, playing monopoly, chilling, at the bar and watching a show.
we were so tired and the show wasnt tt exciting as anticipated and some of us actually dozed off during parts of the show

and the trip came to an end today morning.
nearly 9 yrs of friendship!

I hope to continue to have more good memories with them

happy 21stto gab and wanjoo!

returning home, my mum has just finished her 2nd round of chemo.
looking visibly tired but otherwise okay.
Hope she conts to stay strong and win this battle.

now back to studies!
discrete maths is killing me while the rest seems quite okay -for now.
