Vacation to Kuantan...

On the 19th to 21st of November, my family and I went to Kuantan for our vacation. We spent the first night at a 4-star hotel. Personally, I really dislike that hotel. It's like the dead city, or rather hotel althought it was broad daylight. It was quite dull and old. The pool was okay. I have an issue with my room's toilet. The floor is yucky and sticky. I can't flush the stupid toilet and I have to throw myself against the toilet door to close it. The room view was okay, I guess. The sliding door looked out to several shady trees, a wooden old swing and the beach is furthur down. Fortunately, I only have to stay there for one night. The next morning, I was waken by the maniacal laughter of children playing on the old swing. My parents, one of my brothers (the other one is sleeping like a pig) and I took a stroll along the beach. Oh, the beach was fantastic! The sand was soft and powdery under the soles of our feet and the sea breeze was soothing. The sea water was quite warm. I think we walked and ran 3 km along the beach. I even raced with my brother although I usually hate racing. The only good thing about that hotel was the beach. We packed our stuff and moved on to another hotel. But, this time, a 5-star hotel. I can't describe how it feels to step in the luxurious space of the lobby. That was the first time I step foot in a 5-star hotel. I can find no fault with the rooms. The beach view from my room was spectacular. And, this hotel is not the dead city. It's a place where a lot of activities are going on and there's not a minute of absolute silence. The beach was not as nice as the 4-star one, though. I don't know why I could sit on the beach for hours and not feel bored. I mean, really sit and do nothing. Except splashing water. The sunset was really beautiful. Anyway, gotta go. My brother wants to use the computer. Catch up later! *Finally found a blogskin that I really like.

First Day of Holidays and It's Siew Kwan's Birthday!!!

Sigh...It's so nice to wake up whenever you want to, dawdle at doing everything and not having to do things according to schedule. Too bad, this kind of life isn't meant for me. Every day precisely at 0803, an alarm will automatically begin ringing in my head. And, I would have to wake up. No matter what I do, I just can't fall back to sleep. I don't know since when this became a habit. I tried setting my handphone alarm to 1000, but I still woke up between the minutes of 0800-0803. So this morning, I started to read my latest novel - Shopaholic Ties the Knot. Great book, makes me laugh. Then, my maid (and also one of my best friends, though she's quite special coz she's my only friend whom took care of me since I was dripping saliva, that was 3 years old, until now, I'm 14) came barging into my room. I became her experiment. She wanted to try to do manicure and pedicure with those transaparent nail polish, so she did those on me. My nails now look...different. And the whole time, I was reading Shopahlic.

I now come to the end of Form 2. When I looked back at events of the past, it all seemed very distant to me. I can’t remember anything specifically, unless those really exhilarating-mind-buzzing-stomach-turning-heart-pounding times. Time can be a real pain. It ticks for like an eternity when I’m bored. Then, when I’m enjoying myself and not aware of it at all, it comes hurtling by and just vanished before I could blink my eyes. 3 more years and all the friends I know will be leaving me, or I'll be leaving them. We would go to college and then fly to universities at the other side of the world. We might click when we meet again, we might not. Well, never mind of that now, I've still got 3 years to savour every bit of my friendship. Not to say 3 years is a long time.

Exiting...Craving for a Chocolate chip ice-cream...I'll go get some later...
