we are all born mad. some remain so.

came back from malaysia... truely asia~ :D

horrible day. imagine sitting on the bus with 39 aunties and uncles, hokkien pop/opera remixes like besame mucho, bengawan solo, one way ticket (OMG) and the likes blasting away on the stereo in the bus... plus crude jokes/remarks... really. none of you will want this.

the trip was to desaru and kota tinggi (finally got the places right) to the ostrich farm and fruit farms... but we ended up going temple after temple... not that i dont respect others' religion... but to give us a phony schedule is the most incorrigible thing. we DID go to the ostrich and fruit farms... but we spent like 15mins there as compared to an hour in the temples... where me and my mom stayed on the bus with the stupid remix CD on. i couldnt decide which is worse.

the main attraction was the food... lol. im so seriously dead fat now. in the morning we stopped at this place called queen park. i had half wanton mee and fish porridge (shared with mom) omg its SO nice! the fish~ so tender and succulent~ and the wanton noodles~ omg... so elastic! for lunch we had lobster (puny!! sobx) crabs (yummyyyyy) oyster omelette (WOHOOO!! but i ate only 3 oysters SOBXXX) haha... plus some insignificant fishes and chicken and duck... dinner we had prawns and juicy kampong chicken plus some other stuff. ARGH SO NICE haha!

ANYWAYS. haha... the ostrich farm was nice! theres this baby ostrich that just hatched for one day!


and i couldnt help but take a photo with it!


and ostrich eggs made into lamps! damn nice...


case of the disappearing mangoes...
when we got to the fruit farm, the mangoes there were HUGE. they called it the "golden pillow" -_- guess they're watching the show on telly now... lagging as usual. whoops. the whole farm is full of mango trees here and there... and mom bought 2 golden pillows (wth it really sounds silly) and so did some other pple... when we got back on the bus (facing the trees in cultivation) we saw 3 people from another singaporean tour bus stealing mangoes from the trees. one... two... three... FOUR... and they went deeper and deeper into the farm to steal. its damn bloody irritating lah. i mean, its just some bloody MANGOES. they even used a BOX to hold the mangoes they stole. the farmer was still oblivious! arghh... then one of the kp aunties on my bus went down to inform the farmer... who went to catch the theives. and only managed to retrieve... ONE mango. -__- WHATEVER.

firefly stardust
at around 9pm we took a boat to watch fireflies. omg. words cannot describe how horrendously beautiful they are. i couldnt take photos cos you cant capture it on camera. what i can say is...

those fireflies u see on TCS8 shows? CRAP.

its nothing like that! fireflies are so exquisitely beautiful! their glow is WHITE, not YELLOW. and they are so tiny! they didnt fly around much, they just stayed on the trees. christmas lights around the tree must have gotten the idea from them. their gentle flickers make it seem like magic stardust sprinkled down from above. and im NOT exaggerating. they are like stars in the night sky settled upon earth. its just beautiful. and the most romantic thing in the world.

that was the best part of the whole trip :)

i bought DVDs! oops. haha... passion of Christ, the 2 bourne movies, incredibles, big fish and mystic river. all for less than S$20!!! WOOHOOOOOOOO.... and we also bought ALOT of fruits. haha. ALOT.

rushed home to watch federer versus roddick. feels like watching a retelecast of last year's finals. this time round fereder simply did it. unlike last year, i wasnt roaring in disappointment and anger as much at federer's more-than-merciful shots at roddick. and i was soooo happy for mirka, federer's girlfriend! she is SO sweet! and a tennis player too! faster faster faster get married! and go watch fireflies together! awwww... :) ok joel must be rolling his eyes. haha...
