Bintan

The bintan trip was really fun. Packed loads of food, since it's sorta like a chalet which is equipped with crockery, microwave and the works. First day we had fun with the buggy, driving it around, checking stuff out, watched tv, had a really full dinner, watched tv sumore and fell asleep. 2nd day woke up to more tv, then pick up jon's family messed about, went for pilates class (since i had nothing better to do), bumped into my tutor and had a chat (was really surprised), swam in the pool, came back watched soccer (more tv), mahjong, sleep. 3rd day, mahjong, went to the beach, got a marvelous tan which will peel off soon i suspect =(, but at least i don't look so pale now. Went to the Pasar Oleh Oleh which had nothing much to look at. Really small little area with a duplicate of each shop, came back packed stuff, and we came back this morning.

Highlights:
Mahjong, since i haven't touched in for quite some time
beach + pool = tan
pilates class, and i was the only student so you'll see these two woman doing obscene moves (with me zhao gng, well not exactly since i was wearing sports shorts but still not v nice) on the field next to the path where everyone walks from the beach back to the pool and main lobby where they park their buggies. Which means everyone who went to and from the beach during the one hour i had my pilates class, nice.
Just spending time with jon's family, esp his younger sis. Coz if you know me sometimes i can't really be bothered to engage people, talk to them, when i'm not in the mood. I was on my 'entertain people' mood over the weekend, even lately as well so it's gd i guess.

Oh oh!!! I saw a Edvard Munch painting going for $68 at the simei care centre, his most famous painting which got stolen some time last year or the year before during working hrs of the museum it was housed in.
