Thank you for loving me.

This past week wasn't pretty. It was a roller coaster ride and till now, i still feel its bumps and humps and i suddenly feel like Socrates, having really deep thoughts about life, about existence, about things happening around us if for reason or for one's guilty pleasure.

I have 2 girlfriends whom i love darlingly in life. They were there during my lowest and celebrated with me during my highest, and the tightness between us means we share each other's pains, each other's joys.

But at this moment, both of them are facing a phase where life is giving them a really tough trial. And my broken heart goes all out to them. So this is for you, girls.

K. Darling:

Life perhaps is pulling a very bad joke on you right now. I know what you are going through, no one can fully fathom and understand. Even me, the one out of the three who thinks and ponders so much about life, cannot find an answer to what you are facing now. Your tears, your pain, your woes within you, as much as you look fine, i know you keep it buried within you, hoping time will fade those scars away. I wish i can wave a magic wand and make those pains disappear and let you feel happiness once more. You deserve so much more, sweetie. What you are going through now, know that you still have someone here who truly wants you to be happy and will be here infinito.


J. Baby:

God knows how much tears you have already shed and how much more bottles of wine you have already drank. I am indeed more worried for you. Things may not be what it seems and what weights more is what is unspoken than what was spoken. I am sure you know what i mean. You have always been strong but the torrent of emotions inside you, i sometimes wonder how you manage to keep them at bay. Although i don't know how to help you deal with this hurt but i am going to make sure whatever was unfulfilled, you can find it in us gals. I have faith in you that someday, you will be that person you aim to be. Nothing is gonna stop you and i will be so proud of you.

Seeing you girls at our last drinking session, makes me realise that at the end of the day, we do need people to love us, to be there for us when we are down, to love our every flaw, our every weakness, love us for truly who we are.

And you know what?

Despite my failures, my flaws, revealing to you who i truly am, you girls never wavered in being there for me, supporting me to face life bravely and come what may, when i fall... i need not be afraid because i know 2 pairs of hands will be catching me.

I appreciate you both so much that I feel blessed. To be able to find best friends like both of you. And i hope during this period of time, i will be your strength, your comfort, your encouragement.

Thank you for loving me too.

Desaru Woo Hoo!

Finally, i got the latest break's pics out. I just realised the word "Finally" has such a procrastinator's ring to it, haha. And i tend to use it like, alot. Eeeeks.

Anyways. I had to blog about the latest trip because it was way over my expectations, woohoo! We were told not to expect MUCH at all from Desaru and after doing some online research, there's like nothing AT ALL there besides some plantations and little known farms. But I was desperate for a break and seeing everywhere nearby has been fully booked (yes, last minute bookings get you nowhere), i thought - "Why not? Just give it a shot. At most, i will just go into mediation mode for 3 days if it really stinks and come back and blog about it. Haha. "

But whoa. I was suitably impressed when i first entered our apartment. It was a real cosy double storey little studio apartment with a little kitchen corner built with a sink and has a microwave. For the price that we had paid, it was really worth it.

They have sort of a Wild Wild Wet theme for the kids, where there is a huge water playground for the kids to splash about and a nice long water slide for them to go crazy at. I actually enjoyed the water park myself and looking like a doofees (as what my close friend calls a female doofus), John and i went for the rides repeatedly. And that is also where i had the epitome of Embarassment happened to me *Face turning beet root red*. Not gonna talk about it and those of you who knew what happened, i am glad to have enriched your life with so much laughter. *AHEM*

There is literally no shopping there WHICH i liked so much!! haha. Strange but really REALLY, i am not the "go crazy over the overseas shopping because it is so CHEAP!!" kinda girl. I prefer to buy something of value from the place i am visiting for remembrance and won't purposely find places to shop; sceneries and cultural places interest me more. :)

So since no shopping, we just get to laze at the beach and really do some space-out relaxation. Picked up shells with the little one and more water-slides craziness. This explains why i am a few shades darker now and i am unable to shake off the tan. Poots.

But overall, it was a good break which i needed, to recharge myself mentally, grow more brain juices (i find my braincells tend to grow and sprouts more this way) and re-align myself emotionally.

Here's where i stayed: http://www.lotusdesaru.com/cms/






      


      










We will definitely go back there again and not surprisingly, there are so many Singaporeans there since it's just a half hour ferry ride away from Singapore. 

It is a pretty nice resort and unexpectedly good so if you are looking for a place to chill over the weekend, you can consider Lotus Desaru. *wink*
