fast and furious 5

anyway, hus and I (and kayla) caught fast and furious 5. It was a good movie and good time spent together. I can't remember when was the last time we enjoyed some couple time.
And not to mention, kayla behaved and gave us the little magic. She's there but not there. She slept for 1.5 hrs during the movie, and remained quiet and "watched" the last 30 mins.
thank you children for making today possible.

Diving @ P. Aur

Today is a not so sleepy Monday, but a lazy one. Hus and I just came back from Pulau Aur last evening abt 2030hrs.

We’re away for diving AGAIN!!!

I took a half day leave on Friday cos I was really really sleepy. The journey to Aur is a long one from past experiences. You might not get enough sleep for the diving Saturday.

Hus picked me up from work, and then I accompanied him to finish his lunch before I headed for my cosy bed. I slept for abt 1 plus hour, before I woke up to do ironing. Gosh! I haven iron for the past month. 2 hours of ironing was tiring… where inconsistency pays.

By 5pm, we’re getting ready for the weekend getaway! HOORAY!

FIL picked us at about 6pm and send us to Upper Circular Road, The Riverwalk to report at our trip organizer/ dive operator “Friendly Waters”. The coach picked us up at 8pm and we headed to 2nd link into M’sia. Tanjong Layman Pier to Pulau Aur’s “Divers’ lodge”

It takes us appx 2 hrs to reach the pier, so it’s sleeping time. Then we’ll board the boat "Semudera Dream" and continue sleeping for another 4 hrs before we docked at P. Aur. This time I could sleep pretty well on the bus and the boat so I lack no sleep… Hus always sleeps well, so I think he dun have any problem.

This is the bridge that leads us to most of the places on the island and Divers' Lodge.

This is the Kitchen that prepares our delicious buffet meals...

-this is how we go to the dive sites-

we have to climb up and down that ladder and it's mostly boat diving.

Everyone climbs down in their swimwear to a

speedboat, which is not too speedy.

to the Boat "Sumudera Dream" to dive.

Saturday was a whole day of diving. The 1st dive was just me and Hus, I dint wanna put on my wetsuit so I dove with rash guard and neoprene shorts. Grrr… I was cold. Then the 2nd dive, Huib (a dutch, read as Hawb) joined us. I was still cold… I sat out of the 3rd dive cos I wasn’t feeling terrific, I couldn’t identify the cause of the problem. Maybe I’m just super scared of cold.

But I was guilty during my rest time, I decided to go night diving with Hus. I put on my wetsuit even though I was unwilling, but night dive can be freezing… Hus said the temperature was ordinary, but I trembled under wet suit and rashguard. I feel totally useless. Sigh!

Hus and I cut short the diving trip by packing away our dive gears at the end of the night dive cos the morning dive on Sunday was a little early for comfort. It's at 6.45am, early and cold. We had more sleep on Sunday for the return trip. We had a filling lunch and headed back for Singapore the same way we came. We soon fall asleep after the boat set sail, but the nap was a short one hence I woke up feeling pretty bored. Hus and I read our own books to kill time.

this is the boat, Sumudera Dream, we spent 4 hrs to P. Aur and 4 back to Pier, Tanjong Leman

We watched 2 movies on the return bus-ride. “rush hour 3” and “Evan Almighty”. I thought rush hour 3 wasn’t very interesting, the storyline was bad, only the humor and the NGs were worth the time. Hus and I thought we wouldn't spend $8 to see it in a theatre. “Evan Almighty” is a pretty good film, it sets you thinking about the way you live your life. It’s the sequel to “Bruce Almighty”, it just get you thinking about your spiritual health. Sadly, we couldn’t finish the show before we need to alight the bus. I think we missed 10% of the show… =(

So do you think we’ll watch it in the theatre for the 10% or even buy a DVD for it… I dunno man!

Secret

I just watched "Secret" Starring and Directed by Jay Chow. I wasn't expecting something good as it... Really... it's really good.
The humour was sharp and sweet at the same... I dunno how to describe it any better. The innocence oozed from the campus love relationship is totally heartwarming. When is the last time you watch a love story without heavy smooching scenes and women totally dressed? It's this innocent yet UN-boring...

*aww... doesn't it make you think of your little sweet past*

Although i thnk Jay Chow has too much popularity already, he's all worth it! I love the movie despite the less-than-impressive graphics towards the end of the film. I love Jay's shy and controlled smiles in the film; i reduced my size by half in my seat from MELTING... with Hus right beside me... The dancing fingers on the piano, although i'm aware that the song was recorded separately, was impressive. VERY IMPRESSIVE i mean! He's the TALENT of this day!

I Love it despite the lousy Nachos we bought from the snack bar... The Cathy, you might really lose out in customers due to the quality of the melted cheese... it's too diluted. No longer can cheese be named "cheese" there.

I actually bumped into You Teck and gf after the movie! What coincident!
