Am back from Co's Phuket trip two days ago.. missing it already haha.. I'm always like this, in holiday mood after trips keke.. and it will take some time before my working mood is back. Lol..

Amelia came to send me off that day. =) We arrived T2 around 10.30am.. had Mac together for breakfast.. ordered hotcakes with sausage meal and Amelia a sausage mcmuffin meal. Happened to saw Serene and her family there too.

Had a nice trip, relaxing till I don't feel like working so soon again.. needed more rest.. think quite tired recently. I even missed my dizi class yesterday, cos just feel so sleepy and tired that I decided to head straight home after work for an early rest. Really sorry Amelia, she went by herself.. but no worries will sure be there next week. Alright back to the trip.. The first day we arrived Phuket at around 2 plus Thailand time (3 plus SG time), checked in our rooms, rest a while and then played Pool with Lydia, Francis Ow and Linda played Snooker while Ah Hai and Ching Hock played table tennis. Haha.. so funny the few of us.. nothing much to do around the hotel actually.. At night, we took a ferry to the nearby area for our dinner. Hmm.. good ambience but exp.. the food was not bad only, small servings and long waiting time haha.. but alright, guess we still enjoyed ourselves and the food. After back to hotel, bathe and went to "Loy Kratong", the lounge for some drinks and live band performance. Mr and Mrs Lim, Betty and husband, Adrian and wife and Francis Ow were already there haha we (Lydia, Linda and I) were late.. and the live band was only till 11.30pm. Thus, 2nd day, all of us took the shuttle bus to Patong Beach. Journey was about 40 mins, but many turnings on the road.. Linda and I felt some giddy and like wanna vomit.. After alighting, cannot tahan anymore and went for a quick lunch at the basement foodcourt. Francis, Ah Hai and I each had a bowl of noodle soup, i tried the Thai way of eating - added raw sugar into my soup. Linda a milo while Lydia and Ching Hock just accompany us. Saw Betty and her husband, Mr and Mrs Lim there too, guess all were hungry then hee.. Shop around after that.. at the nearby shopping centres, Carrefour and the shops across the road. Quite a few seafood restaurants there.. this time round, big servings and nice food ha.. we esp like the lala (flat clams) and it's gravy with rice! Yummy.. and the price was reasonable too. One bad impression about Patong Beach, the drivers don't obey the zebra crossing lines (maybe different traffic rules?).. it's so dangerous! Imagine they can still keep on driving even when they saw a mother and a child wanting to cross. Alot of night life and westerners at Patong Beach.. those pubs and night clubs.. ermm think got Thai girl "Tiger" show also. Didn't buy much except some snacks for that night's "party" haha! My colleagues bought 18 cans of Singha beer too. Nice night together though! =) Chatting and joking in our room 3320 haa.. Lydia, Linda and I shared a room. Hock Beng as usual the funniest.. others, Francis, Ah Hai, Adrian and his wife, Serene and Boey Choo. Haha they keep calling Lydia and I "Yati"~ wanting more beer..

Didn't sleep well the first night, super sleepy the next morning manz.. had very light breakfast.. this is the day we went to Patong Beach. Weather at Phuket was nice.. not too hot but a little humid, slightly better than Singapore. Hmm.. for those who love shopping alot, might find Phuket quite a boring place.. but it's definitely a very good place for de-stressing and some good good rest. =)

As usual, posted pix in Facebook and Friendster! Go have a look if you have time! =D

Think there has been quite some changes for most of us in recent years.. like work, relationship, studies bla bla.. Guess it's part of life, changes.. be it good or not, a passing stage where we have to go through.. just try to stay happy and not to worry TOO much. Life is such.. though interesting but also fragile.

Take care guys, good nighty! Sleepz...

Bro

A big change over the years i think..

For my 5th driving lesson, the same instructor as previous, which is good. Practising more on the road.. As usual changing gears as well as lane switching, stopping at traffic junctions and turning at low speed control. We have to react fast so as not to hinder the traffic, still bucking up on it. Also.. was briefed on the bonnet and boot of the vehicle. Been through 3 lessons with this instructor.. so far still alright.. have to improve on my "take off" speed - foot always not getting ready at accelerator, my bad habit.

Was taught by another instructor yesterday, he's repeating what I've already been doing for my past lessons and turning my steering wheel instead of me doing it myself aiyo.. but actually felt quite bad for my tired attitude.. Anyway just know that every instructor have their own way of coaching. Follow their instructions and see which method is better for you, cos it's not possible that you listen to everyone of them right. No matter what, they have the common aim, that is to teach new learners. Though kana say sometimes, but nevertheless, learning to drive is still fun and I enjoy the process. =)

Haha heard from Jonathan that some instructor fell asleep during lessons, some more when coaching fresh learner wor. . . dangerous..

I still have lots more to learn..lessons tmr, Sat and Sun! =)

Went to "Tuk Tuk" again yesterday, this time round with Lai. She wanted to print some stuff and after that we went for our dinner. We had Phad Thai, fish cakes and clear tom yam seafood soup. Haha the fish cakes are huge.. and lastly our complimentary dessert - tapioca kueh and sort of banana kueh. The dessert I wanted had been sold out. Haha we were quite surprised when they brought over the dessert. This is my third time there so far.. nice food and reasonable price, can be even better if there are more choices of dessert hee. Glutton me! =)

简单就是快乐。=)

I want to get a pair sport shoes! Need some exercise. Been feeling lethargic and easily tired. No good no good. Time to get down to it..................!

Haha and I just had a hair cut yesterday, with Amelia. After walking round and round, we finally decided to go back to Reds. Though it's quite exp (about $40) for just trimming, but in all we are pretty happy with it. =)
Eh.. but I look like Ah Tut a bit keke..

Rest early tonight.. 晚安!

4th driving yesterday..

Was late by a few minutes. Same instructor as on Tuesday.. Finally had a chance to be out on the real road! When I got into the car, he just told me later we will drive out. Hmm was alittle nervous at first but rather excited and better after a while. Did few rounds of turning before out to the road. Since the previous lesson, this instructor keep insisting that real road is nothing compared to as in circuit.. outside is just turning and turning bla bla.. but my thoughts, it's different, real road is real life situation that we have to handle, this is what I answered him.
When out on the road, I was to keep changing gears up to the 4th and then slowly change down to the 3rd, 2nd and so on. Haha.. have to play with the speed and gears, cannot be afraid as it will be even difficult to learn when you are scared.

But still, I find this instructor abit weird..
