i am so upset that the vacation is over! have to come back to reality and face everything again. the past week was so carefree. first to malacca, then to cruise. just me and bb. dun have to bother about anything. dun need to report to anyone about anything. just relax and have fun! bleah... dislike being back... miss all the times spent together with bb on the cruise. if only we could turn back time, back to the first day when we boarded the cruise... time to reminisce the highlights of the past week...
mondaythe day we set off for our long awaited cruise vacation! it takes smth impt to be able to make us wake up. lol. we left hall at 10+. bb went home to get smth then we set off to harbourfront. checked in our luggage and met bb's sister and niece for lunch at kim gary. had gogo sausage balls and gong cha after that. full full meal. and then off we went on board the cruise! its great to be back on board the cruise, and we didnt have to worry about anything because everything is taken care of. the room will be packed, food will be served, activities planned. all we needed to do was to enjoy ourselves. such a carefree life that i wanna live forever! we went to check out our cabin and camwhored! haha.




love the mirrors in the room cause they make such great camwhore spots! hahaha.
afterwhich, we went around exploring the ship. brought bb to all the public areas to see see and explore. went to check out the buffet at windjammer too. but was too full for much food. haha. we bought a soda package on board too to fulfill bb's daily coke cravings. haha. so we had free flow of coke throughout the cruise. (: headed for the emergency drill after that. its a boring thing but since its compulsory, got no choice. haha. went for more exploring around the cruise. then its dinner time!




the royal caribbean menu! just a snapshot of the menu of the day.

bb's onion tart

my caesar salad. so healthy. hahaha.

bb's prime ribs

my salmon
i forgot to take pics of the desserts. haha. but every meal is this kinda standard. all the good food. i got no idea how much weight i put on from the trip! but still, i enjoyed myself so so much with bb's company!
i have loads of photos of food but i shall not flood my blog with all the photos in case u ppl get hungry. haha. we went to watch a juggling show after dinner. then we ended up in the casino. lol.
tuesdaytuesday was basically roaming around the cruise. watched one of the activities "world's sexiest man challenge". damn funny how those uncles try so hard to win. hahaha. pictures wont do them justice. u will laugh hard when u see what they did. hahaha.




we went to play bingo after that. but sadly didnt win.:( played 2 games and gave up on it so didnt play the last two on thurs. our bingo cards! (:

highlight of tuesday should be the formal gala dinner. wore my mint maxi dress for the second time. lol. more camwhoring!

we were all set and ready to leave the room for the captain's welcome reception.



in anchors aweigh lounge.
we proceeded for dinner after the welcome reception and then there was a production show by the royal caribbean singers and dancers! love watching these musical kinda thing.(:
wednesdaywednesday was the day we docked at bangkok (Laem Chabang)! but too bad the port is too far away from bangkok city, we went to pattaya instead. i spent loads of time checking up on the travelling from the port to bangkok and pattaya but it was damn ex. in the end, the cruise provides shuttle bus at US$16 person to and from pattaya. lol. nothing much to shop at pattaya though. we only bought a pair of sunglasses each. our first pair of sunglasses! haha. like suaku like that. but seriously, singapore got no chance to wear ma. bb bought some stuffs for his family. though we didnt buy much, it was still nice to walk around and explore new places with bb.(:




our new sunglasses! chanel and gucci. hahaha.
we took the 4.30pm coach back to the port and went back on the cruise. then there was a magic show that night! although i dun really believe in magic, but sometimes, i just cant figure out how the magicians do certain things. ah well. and im still waiting for bb to teach me the card trick! hahaha. we went up to the deck to play mini golf at night. so sad i lost! bleah. but still, fun fun! haha. i dun think im cut out to play golf though. its a rich people business sport. not for me. haha.
thursdaykoh samui day! very happy to be back at koh samui since i had a great time with my family here i think 2 years ago? very relaxing place. but the place that we arrived at, which is the pier of course, lol. is at nathon, which is somewhere i dunno. haha. was so suaku that i asked the shopkeeper of a convenience store where that was. hahaha. wanted very much to go to the beach but taking the cab there was damn ex. we were quoted 600 baht for one way. which works out to like 20+ dollars. though its a far journey, i dun wanna waste so much on travelling. in the end, we managed to find a group of chinese uncles and aunties to travel together, so we took a tuk tuk to chaweng beach at 1000 baht for 7 ppl, 2 way. so much cheaper! haha. i made the decision to to go chaweng just cause i wanted to go to the beach. hope it wasnt too boring for them. haha. but there was shopping there too. though we didnt have much time to walk.
so at chaweng beach, we went down to play in the sea!(: been long since i went to the sea to play. haha.

on the tuk tuk on the way to chaweng!




feeling fat these days so only one bikini photo. hahaha.


our super big corn! haha. yummy yummy! bought a mango too and it was super sweet! damn nice. but damn ex. 50 baht for the corn and 50 baht for the mango. got a free banana though. haha.


with out tuk tuk! (:
went back to the ship via the last tender boat. the sea was so choppy that the boat rocked like nobody's business. haha. got a slight seasick i think.=x got back to cruise and went for a shower! my hair was like hay after playing in the sea. couldnt comb my hair cause it was all tangled up! but sweet sweet bb combed my hair for me! i think i would have lost 100 times more hair if i combed my hair myself cause im just so not patient and gentle. haha. but bb was so sweet. slowly help me comb through my messy hair. end up we were late for the performance. bleah. bb even helped me comb when we were getting out coke refill at the bar. the bartender commented that he is taking good care of me. haha. fortunate much.(: show for tonight was piano performance by linda gentille. saw this performance the other time too but she did change the performance a bit here and there. still amazed with the speed of her fingers.
fridayand time just past so so fast when u are having a good time... sobz. last day of cruise. we didnt do much, cause we slept like the majority of the day. hahaha. piggy piggy. went to watch the last show of the cruise. production show, invitation to dance by the royal caribbean singers and dancers. and there was the farewell segment as well. went for the last dinner at romeo & juliet dining room. took photos with our waiter ali and assistant waiter ling ling! like before, they sang songs for us as part of farewell! that's the royal caribbean experience.(:





this was the super cute lobster we found in the room that night! there is an animal every night but most of the pics are in bb's phone. but this was super cute. the lobster is wearing my sunglasses. haha.
after dinner, we went to change and headed up to the pool! had a fun and relaxing time in the pool cause there werent much people. at first there werent anyone actually. haha. then we went to the whirlpool. love the warm water and the bubbling water. super comfortable.(: went for a cocktail drink at the bar after that. at night, had a late shower and bb helped me blow dry my hair. sweet right? haha. i dun even blow dry my own hair.=x thanks for being so sweet bb! <3
saturday was just rise and shine and off the cruise. so sad! so didnt want to leave the cruise. bleah. we went back to hall cause bb got open house thingy to attend to. i slept in the room. lol. then did laundry. bb's friend sent us down to orchard to collect my phone. and bb pei me go to ps to change my sim card which suddenly spoilt.-.- had dinner and drank gong cha. but gong cha at ps sucks! the tea like damn diluted. after that i headed home and bb went to meet his friends.
miss you bb! just wanna say, i really enjoyed the cruise trip with you! thanks for being so so sweet to comb and blow dry my hair for me.(: hope u enjoyed the trip too! cant wait to see u!<3
