*edited. (so many typos eeekss)
oh wow.. feels like a million events have occurred in the week or so that i havent been able to blog..
`
had myself an awesome holiday which lasted a whole week! hopped from one place to another and enjoyed every single bit of it!!
started out with bintan on Monday.. and seriously bintan was the bomb diggity! absolutely indulged in the abundance of the sun, sand and sea and trust me it was PERFECT! from dragging ourselves out of bed to jog towards the sunrise..
having an ice cold beer in the sweltering afternoon sun while lying on the deck chair, eyes closed but ears open, simply taking in the therapeutic sound of the rhythmic crashing waves.. enjoying an afternoon nap, hearing the active crickets even in broad daylight- a reminder that nature never sleeps..
walking on the soft white sand- toes first..
wading in the crystal clear water- enjoying the initially cold sea water warm up so quickly against my bare skin..
admiring the pretty fish that swam solo- so deft in its way, it disappeared as quickly as it appeared..
freaking out over the jellyfish even though they were oblivious to my existence..
picking sea shells along the way, one for everyone who meant something to me and some for myself- just for keeps =)
taking shots of everything that took our breath away- a desperate move to capture every possible moment.. but so foolish we were to think that any justice could be done, to the splendour nature held before us, by a mere picture..
missing the bus to the local market only to be rewarded by the indescribable setting of the sun.. my-oh-my.. how HE slipped through a tear in the sky into the horizon- where the sea seemed to meet the sky.. how HE disapperead but still left traces of his magnificent worth- illuminating the sky with colours no man can ever paint much less describe..
such simple everyday events, we take for granted but how if we just took 5 mins off our busy day, we could all be left spell bound.. such is nature, so powerful, not even the king of kings can challenge it.. even while it lays dormant.. I'd give anything to be back there, exchange all the money in the world for that peace and tranquility, i experienced in Bintan.. But at least i took back with me, the realisation that anyone could seek solace in the simple things that happen around us.. try i will and try i may.. to close my eyes and remember the sweet surrender and maybe i'll be able to re-live a moment or two.. sigh, i'll put up the pictures.. then maybeeee you'll see what i'm talkin about..
*all dreamy*
`
SO anyways.. came back on Wed late afternoon and was off to KL the next morning.. even
had the energy to make full use of a ladies night at obar ;)
`
KL, was another fun-filled trip.. clubbing and shopping ( yay i got me like 6 new dresses n tops or smthing) and eating and yeah pretty much everything a holiday entails! had a few hiccups tho- all of which have been settled and infact taught me some important lessons which i prob never would have learnt on my own.. we bonded with ma gorgeous cousins- much love to the 2 of you for showing us a fantabulous time! and oh yessssssss the suite we stayed in... wowwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!! blooooooody awesome i tell you! so not only did we party, but we lived like the rockstars huh lavi *winkkkkk*
`
yeah so the week that just passed was one of a kind.. and it was leave in lieu of my overtime hours.. so i can safely say i put all those hours i worked till the wee hours of the morning, so exhausted i didnt even have the energy to be depressed or wallow in self-pity, to FULL USE!! hahaha loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
`
back to work, and all the mundane activities that i left behind while i lived my little dream.. but remember, all it takes is 5 mins.. and trust me that 5 mins i WILL BE taking =) thanks to youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu =) * muacksssssssss*
The heart has its reasons which reason knows not of..
