Back from Phuket!

Wow...nice things are always so short! I really enjoyed myself in Phuket although I overspent my budget. I realised that I can do so many things I like on my own with God without Terrior. The thought of coming back to Singapore is like a nightmare on Elm's street......Reality is always so ....Hainzzz.....

Day 1 Phuket (15 Oct):
Yuqin & I had a smooth & safe flight. We reached hotel (Grand Tropicana) around 4plus Phuket time. Our hotel room is just outside the level 3 swimming pool. Quite nice....We headed for the Patong Beach to start our shopping spree and diving cost hunting. Halfway through, we stop by the chinese seafood centre and ate Lobster! The lobster is so heavy (1kg) and cost me S$44. Expensive yah.....my heart feel so "tia". I would rather spend the money on diving instead of eating. But to satisfy my fren i have no choice but to give in lo. (anyway I shall have abundant from God). Much to my despair, the diving trip cost at least $3200 baht (S$124). I know my friend would not pay so much for a dive trip. I was so dissappointed. I diverted my attention for rafting trip. So we gather all the information and hope my other 2 friends will accomodate for it when they reach Phuket the next day (Sat).

Ou and me return to hotel rather early. Around 10plus to have an early night. We intend to go for a spa massage the next day to pamper ourselves. So we decided to have an early night and wake up late the next day morning.

What a relaxing day after so long........Zzzzzz

Late at night i heard it was raining outside. I quickly pray to Father to have a bright & sunny day the next day and stop all rain....then i fall asleep again.....

Day 2 Phuket (16 Oct)
Woke up early & heard ou complain abt the bed was so hard. Ha.....The rain had stopped and the Sun is shinging bright! We decided to go for a swim after our breakfast followed by a spa treatment....and then meet Sam at the hotel around 4 plus.

At the swimming pool, the sight of the fat angmos wearing Bikini stirs me up inside. If they can wear, so can I! hee.... So we were determined to get a cheap Bikini later at Patong Beach and try our guts.Hopefully the guys will not puke. ha....

I feel like a queen in the spa. It cost abt $2500 baht (S$100). heee....once in a life time pamper! They massage my leg and body. Even have a nice shower room attached. I really feel like a royal princess there.

Finally met up with Sam at the hotel and I was sooooo disappointed when they were not interested to go for the rafting trip. But thank God, they wan to go for a snorkeling trip to Phi Phi Island for $1100 baht. At least i get to feel the sea....Bo "fish" , "prawn" also hor! No dive but at least i get to snorkel. We end our day for a $500baht Thai message. We requested for extremely hard one but they were still so soft. Haiz....not so shiok...

Day 3 Phuket (17 Oct)
Yohoo!!! Woke up extremely early for the Phi Phi Island trip. Its a bright & sunny day again. Thank you father for so being faithful....He is taking care after me.

I was very glad that the dive agent, Scuba Cat, we signed up for the snorkeling trip, was so good. All of them are ANGMOs!!!! Cute one too!heee...... No noisy chinese or kiasu singaporean. However, i was so envious of them as they were all going for diving. I started a small talk with the Instructor Bob, and told him of my desire to dive. However, I never bring my open water licence. Thank God, my last minute desire can be fulfilled. He was able to take me in with another cute angmo for a beginner dive! Thank God....I keep praying to God asking him to take care of me and let me see special fish......

The first dive was good...saw Dory and a leopard shark! It is so cute with white colour with brown spots sleeping at the sea bed. Too bad my maximum dive is 12 meter. cant go any deeper as the angmo did not have diving licence. Pass through a coral which look like the Great Barrier Reed. A strain of fishes swimming vertically along it. It was such a nice spot! Its really amazing that under water can be so beautiful.

My 2nd dive was good....but no special fishes was spotted. However I saw Nemo in his home. Exactly like the one in the cartoon. But the fin is balance in size. He is so tiny & cute! Hainz... the fat cute angmo run out of oxygen again...so time to go up again..While waiting for the boat to pick us up, we were bitten by the tiny jelly fish at the Phi Phi island. Ouch!

We went back late and Ou was waiting in the hotel room until 7pm. We went to a restuarant to have Black Pepper steak for dinner! My My! I never tasted such delicacy in Singapore. It was extremely tasty!

The night ended with a downpour. It cancelled our plan to have another message session. We ended up shopping for a while and return to our hotel drenched. Hee.....

Day 4 (Last Day)

We have to leave Phuket today at 5pm. So we started our last minute shopping spree. I did not buy much as I was broke liao. The diving and the spa and lobster almost consume all my expenses. what a sad moment to leave my vacation.....
