BINTAN UPDATE! :) Day 1 Woke up at 7 30am to get ready and checked if I finished packing everything. Amanda came to pick us up along with Ben and we went to have porridge. I have to say it was pretty nice but the portion was quite a lot and I hardly eat breakfast so I did not finish it. haha. After that drove to some yacht place where we saw people fishing and I saw 2 Malay people fishing and it was rather interesting. But like they kept throwing the fish back into the sea. Quite sick to see the fish being caught, like the hook went through the eye but they still threw it back into the sea. GROSS!  So we got dropped off and we waited for Benedict, Paul and Kenneth. Amanda's bag was like seriously huge, it was rather funny! haha, at the end of the trip we realised we brought too much clothes. haha!  We only could go in at 1 something so we started to camwhore. haha! picture after picture. =p .JPG) Just a few faces of Shu En and I. HAHA!  Kenneth kept wanting us to take pictures of him, how egoistic can he get siax! HAHA! kidding. =p We boarded the ferry and I preferred the ferry ride back then going there, but like I still like boat rides, I love all kind of rides except rides that are slow and goes uphill. (chairlift in sentosa does not work for me) Yeah, so we got to Bintan and we took a bus all the way to our place. :) We got the Cempaka 52 Villa. It was really nice and the master bed room was really nice. The guys were nice enough to give it to us. :)  So while everyone was unpacking and all, Benedict saw a frog I think, freaking funny! It was rather cute and it was trying to jump away but it could not, so Amd went to call room service to get the frog out. haha!  So after that, we watched some tv then Kenneth made a call to the restaurant in the town to reserve a place for us to have dinner and like there was some miscommunication between him and the person at the restaurant because the person told him it closes at 7pm and like we all could not believe it so Paul went to call the place up again to check and it actually closes at 9 30pm. haha! We drove our buddy to the lobby and a cab picked us up. I made a stupid mistake by sitting in front because the driver kept talking to me but like I could not understand him. haha! We got to the town Pasar Oleh Oleh and we were greeted with so many people asking us to go visit their shops and all.  See the dude in white? He followed/waited for us the entire time we were at the town. haha! So we got there and like there was hardly anyone the guys went to walk around and Amanda, Shu En and I went to get a foot massage. haha! Amanda kept hitting her leg where the cream was like the guy had to keep cleaning it off for her. HAHA! After we were done we went for dinner, and there was like no one there. we were like the only ones there. The food was pretty alright, the service was really fast and all. HAHA   After that we headed to some polo shop and like Amanda, Benedict, Paul and Kenneth all bought stuff and they were pretty broke from that day. HAHAHAHAHAAH. So that marks the end of Day 1. :) Day 2 We headed for the beach and to tell you the truth I was seriously blown away by how beautiful it looked. We took like a millions pictures there and like we played water sports too! So we got there and played with the sand and looked at the beautiful sea and all. :) really pretty! So we did Banana Boating, Snorkeling, floating in the ocean, boat rides. I have to say I HIGHLY dislike getting onto boats. It was seriously the most embarrassing moments I ever had in Bintan. And I got like so many bruises thanks to the boats. But anyway, water sports was pretty fun! :) During Snorkeling, we saw lots of coral and fish. even though it was milky I have to say it was rather fun. It was Amanda's and Kenneth's first time snorkeling and I thought it would be more fun but I guess it was alright for a first time. We got to see the Nemo fish. :) The guy in charge was so cute he was like" You want to see nemo?" HAHA.  We did Archery as well too! and I have to say I never had so much fun, maybe because I could hit the target and my score was quite close to the highest, like about 20 more points? HAHAHA.   That was about all for the second day, Shu and Amanda cooked such delicious dinner! HAHA, At first Shu told me to taste the pasta and I was like why is there a sour taste? HAHAHA, But there was no sour taste after a while. HAHA, cooking was great fun! =p I seriously enjoyed boiling water using the kettle. like those olden days. HAHA. Day 3
HAPPY BIRTHDAY KENNETH YEN!(MEL)  So it was Kenneth's Birthday and like we woke up at 7am to make the cake for him, we are how thoughtful please. haha! we wanted to play a prank on him but we did not manage to do it. Wanted to paint his nails pink but like when Amanda opened the door, he woke up and to make it even weirder, Amanda waved at him. -_____- haha! We played darts while waiting to play laser quest and like Shu En was seriously good at it. We played Laser Quest after that and the guys were seriously good can! I got hit 73 times by benedict! HAHAHA, and like my score was the second lowest of the bunch, kenneth got like 501?!? so retarded.
After that we headed to the beach and we played volleyball and like my arm still has bruises and like the guys working there tried so hard to teach us volleyball and like I think I suck at volleyball. HAHA. Amanda and Shu En did some really cool jump shots and like I edited to make it nicer. :) .JPG) Pretty huh? Amanda, Shu and I camwhored even more again. HAHA. :)
And I tried to take artistic pictures and I edited some of them again, I really love the jump shot ones. :) and the picture with amanda and the beautiful ocean. :) Amanda, Shu and I also wanted to braid our hair but it was like 45 sing so we decided not to braid it and instead we went to take a short swim and we ordered drinks, that was the life man! I wish everyday was like that. HAHAHA. :)After all of that, we went for the dinner, and I have to say the food was so best we ever had the entire trip. The fried rice was the best and the fish would have been better if it was bigger, but I have to say I enjoyed dinner! And while waiting for the food, Amanda, Shu and I went to sit on the road to look at stars and I wish we could see as many stars as we saw in Bintan, I have never seen so many before in my life. It seriously took my breath away.  The last night there, we played games till 6am and then at 12pm we had to leave. :( The boat ride back was really nice even though it was rather rocky. When we got back to Singapore, jon sent us back! Thanks a million for sending us back even though you were so tired and thanks for lending me your phone. :) So I have to say, the trip was quite fun! I enjoyed most of it and I won't mind doing it again. :) Thanks to the people who went Benedict, Kenneth, Paul, Amanda and Shu for making the trip so fun and interesting! :)  Goodbye Bintan, there is so many things I loved about Bintan and I'm sure I'll be back again! Ps: A lot of things happened there like buggy rides and all. Too much to type, if you want to know just ask any of us. :)
