Good Friday Down Under!!!
Ok i spent the weekend in Australia.Night Before. Goes to airport and checks in before heading to the lounge. I grab a 7-UP and go the computer area in the lounge that had computers looking disturbingly like my own. Talks to people on facebook due to the lack of msn. Attempts to grab my 7-Up but hits the side and it goes whoosh in a circle before returning back to its standing position lacking much of its original content. Despite much persuasion from some (I'm sorry XP), due to the great and overwhelming distance of the servietts, i left the desktop a little more moist and sticky than it was supposed to be. Oh well.
1st Day. Met up with Chris and Jill (cousin and cousin-in-law) and Ah Kim (aunt), and after having half of our plans ruined by Good Friday, we settled for some jet boat cruise. When we first got on they asked for our valuables we did not want to get wet. When this type of thing happens, no one really suspects anything. When the joy ride begins, the captain starts with an introduction, explaining it was their intent to get us all wet. Once again, one does not suspect anything wrong. After speeding up and twisting and turning, we did get a little wet, and i thought that was all....
Then the dude accelerates like a mad man then suddenly does a full stop and we see this wave of water droplets freeze in mid-air in front of us. The thought, "Uh-oh." raced through our minds, and a second later that same wave of water came splashing down on us. A few seconds ago, I was just admiring my cool new hairstyle with much thanks to the wind, and there it was looking like i just had a shower a few seconds later. And my sis and I were wondering why the seats were so wet.
2nd day. I wake up late and get up to eat lunch and then go fishing with Ah Kim :) Ok so i hook on the bait onto the hook and go on to throw the line into the sea. A second later, there's a bite so i reel it in. ITS A FISH! A BLOW FISH <3 But then Ah Kim comes over and says its a pest, and carries on with stabbing it and taking the hook out. This continues on, with her using methods such as stabbing, cutting (with scissors), and stomping. After my 15th blowfish, i give up and try to kill them too. I repeat, try. I take a knife and can't really bring myself to stab it so i just poke it gently.... And the knife bounces off. This continues with me asserting a bit more force until i finally give up. Phase 2: SCISSORS! So i take the scissors from the bucket and try to deflate the stupid thing, once again did not really want to kill it so i did not use to much force, but i continue to press forth until the thing finally deflates, blowing air/water out of its mouth. A second later, it re-inflates itself =.= So i move on to stepping on it. After many desperate attempts to end its life, I finally give up and kick it into the river. A second later, it swims away....
OMGWTFBBQ!!!!
That line just raced through my mind for a few seconds and after which i had a new found respect for blowfish.
Moving on, we went on to the indoor Go Kart area. Drift! Drift! <3
3rd Day: Wake up. Carry shopping bags around. Eat. Carry shopping bags around. Go to airport. Carry shopping bags around. Flight back home. Carry Shoppings bags around. Im home!
