i have so many things to update, i prob could spent the next one hour just trying to recall the week i had. hmm..perhaps should update abt the batam trip first..DAY 1 --Arrival Dayi barely slept thru the night for fear that i would be late and i had to wake zakie up too so i better dont sleep too much. i had 3 hours of non-quality sleep. did packing again then left to meet ivy at the control station. i kept thinking, " what if no one enjoys the trip? what if they find the place boring?" though i didnt say anythg but i had my mind full of thoughts and i was damn sleepy. however i was elated when everyone turned up for breakfast. even faith was early!! we almost boarded the wrong ferry!! hahha..there goes my tip!!finally found the right ferry to board and we sat separately cos it was too crowded. everyone seemed sleepy, shankar and i talked and i realised that he might be around for long soon..i was so sad and shocked to hear that but i knew where he was coming from. im so gonna miss him!!had lunch before we checked in..didnt manage to stay on the same floor but it was ok. the rooms were comfortable, as usual. zakie was unwell, he rested and got a bit better.due to the rain, we proceeded with indoor games, played table tennis tho it almost became badminton when i played with the girls..hahah..such a wonderful feeling to see all four of us together again. i played pool tho i suck at it. not bad i tot, i got 2 balls in..haha i prefer table tennis.went for massage which was extremely comfortable!! beats the first two times i had it. poor zakie didnt recover yet, we sent him to stupid doctor who didnt really know how to treat him. poor guy gt worse..i was very worried for him, i was so praying that he will get better the 2nd day. everyone was tired..after playing heart attack and we slept.Day 2 -- Zakie came alive!!zakie got worse in the morning, i quickly called a doctor in. thank God she was more meticulous or rather more skilful in her treatment, she prescribed so many medicine and i was so worried zakie will take the wrong medicine again. he rested and i was reluctant to leave him alone in the room but i guess i have to take care of the rest as well.i sent the girls off, feeling disappointed that they didnt have the chance to go for go-kart and seasports. they were very nice, they were amiable with the rest and didnt show any signs of discontentment at all. zakie came down for lunch and he could open his eyes!! finally i could see his eyes and he ate!! i was so relieved but i felt that i was getting listless already. we went to the games room when i felt that i had run out of energy already. i slept on the couch until hui came to get me back to the room to rest. i had a good 3 hour nap but felt very bad that i was the only one who rested...we went to the KTV where everyone was singing and enjoying themselves! there were clapping, dancing, eating and shouting!! and most importantly, zakie finally could enjoy himself! everyone sang so well...we adjourned to the lounge outside for live band performance. the band was awsome, zakie went to sing with them too!! oh man, he is really a singer. elmi was gone long time ago and we didnt bother about him.we played games throughout the night, zakie slapped my hand so hard that i got bruises but it was so funny that i kept tearing and laughing. and of cos my legendary sneezes kept everyone laughing.we slpt for 2 hours before its time for breakfast.Day 3 -- the sun came out!!it was a bright and sunny morning!! we were exhilarated. we went for go-kart after breakfast.i came in 2nd!!! shankar was the only one i didnt catch up cos i went into the grass patch when i was looking out for hui who "lang gah"..poor girl, got muddy and all. we went to the pool!! finally!! i got them to try the slide which i was talking abt all the time and cuiqi almost drowned in the 0.7m pool..hahahahaa...we played water polo, volleyball, ball rally then we went up to wash up and prepared for the journey home.everyone was tired but we had fun and that was what i wanted...
