Excerpt from the Phuket Trip...Part 1

It's a week since I've came back from my Phuket trip. Haven't really got round to posting any new entries or whatever. Actually I almost did...just that our dear blogger decided to "error" my post and everything magically got deleted -_-'' Oh well...what can I do then

Anyways, Phuket was nice, though the weather was unpredictable. It could be heavy showers one moment, and the sun would be out the next. The way I see, Phuket (or issit Thailand) has plenty of two things - imitation goods and transvestites. And boy, are their trans pretty! Well I guess most of us would know that already anyway.

We followed an ititnery, but didn't kill ourselves over following it. Was generally R&R. Thankfully the rain didn't affect us that much. Except that we couldn't do much tanning -_- Yeah, whoever has heard of coming back from Phuket but still fair? Doesn't matter. We walked around alot, free and easy style indeed. Explored the place, did massages too. I love their massages! Especially the traditional one. They bend and flip u like some acrobatic stunts, and sometimes the "cracking" of your tensed/tired bones sends some jolts up your body but woah...I tell you, the aftermath is fantastic! You'll feel so relax and "rested", your body is "loosed". Seriously renewed. I think the local (spore) ones aren't as good though. Really cheap and good. Oh, and I braided my hair on the last day, while we had some time to kill before going to the airport to catch our flight. Haha..something different. The peeps at the office got a huge "surprise"...they never thought I would do something so different. Haha...

I just love travelling. The sights you see, the senses you experience...and of coz, it's just rest and relax everyday. And the longer I can go away, the happier I would be. I still have another nine days to clear by the end of this year...residue leave from last year. But these are already reserved for my end-Nov trip to Europe. I seriously have to start saving now. I can't imagine...no shopping for the coming months (except stuff for the trip)! *shudder* Though of coz, I wonder if there will be another short trip in between. Hee....

I haven't really had time to tidy the pictures as yet, so pooh, no pics yet...except for this one:



He got me this plush elephant at one of the places where we went to watch a performance. It's cute coz it's smallish and just lovable...We both agreed that minus its trunk, it could actually double up as a mouse; and we loosely translated to be it to be “像老鼠的大象” ..."Mousey Elephant" - And that, is its name. Hee =D It now shares my bed with me every nite, together with my beloved duckie, which is so far, one of the longest plush that I have carried to bed without fail everynite (unless when I'm not at home).

Have got lotsa to clear at the office since my return. Waaaay behind my deadlines now...means I'm dead meat already. Been real busy with covering events while coping with deadlines. Going to hit the sack now and see if I can go early into office tomr.
