all's been better!i'm so excited about the trip i just booked.
firsly, finally i'm travelling on a plane on my OWN holiday trip to somewhere!
secondly, it's our first real holiday together(genting doesnt count cos it doesnt involve a plane ride."
thirdly, it's the first holiday i diy planned, so i'm looking very much forward to it.
so on the 19th, i'll return to singapore from my icn-sfo flight at 1.20am.
then i'll take my free company transport home, since the arrival time is after midnight. probably take a quick short nap cos coming home from flight always means -super shagged-.
wake up about 5.30am to get packed and prepared for the trip... and leave for the airport at 7.30am.
then shop in the airport for about an hour, as i've always wanted to do, even though i go in and out of the airport so so often... -_-
AND, at 9am we'll hafta check in for our flight to BALI by AIRASIA! =)
we've picked Harris Tuban Hotel after browsing through so many hotels reviews for 3nights! but finally decided on Harris cos of the special package they can offer to cabincrew. only $309 for 5D4N and inclusive of our daily breakfast! it's not the cheapest we can find, but Harris is relatively new compared to the other hotels photos and reviews we've read... and on top of that, Harris is only 5mins away from the airport, which means we dont hafta wake up in the wee hours on the last day to travel back home.
1 review said, " harris is so near the airport that we arrived the hotel, before we could say 'terima kasih' "
anyway, on the 19th we'll reach Bali by noon, and the hotel offered to pick us up for free. most hotels i checked only offered transfer back to airport.
and i've planned 5days consecutive massage/spa treatment for the both of us! i'm so looking forward to feeling oh-so-shiok and rejuvenated after the entire trip! maha.
right now i cant stop thinking about the massage i had, the last time i had a nightstop there. my crew brought us to the spa that's frequented by crew and the service was excellent.
i had 2 masseuse at the same time for 2 hours. 1 massaged my back while the other concentrated on my legs, i felt like a king! and all that for only 35bucks.
where to find sial......i'll be back in singapore on the 23rd afternoon, just about enough rest for my auckland flight the next day at 6am. but i'll bet i'm gonna be so re-energised after the whole trip! =D
that aside, i just bought a new fridge and i'm loving it! the old one that we had was frigging old and spoilt and...disgusting. can you imagine finding ants in your fridge??? and
its owners did nothing to take care of it, the insides had blotches of yellow stains and even glooey stuff left probably from over-kept rotten stuff.
our new samsung fridge costs us 650bucks but i'd say it's money well-spent! now i can start saving money by stocking up my fridge with food so that i can eat out less and have healthier meals at home. =)
that day when the fridge arrived, we had to clear out the old fridge, and we found rotten green apples at the bottom of everything! i jokingly asked fi if the apples were red ones initially. the smell was frigging bad and i had to throw away a lot of other stuff that came into contact with it. i bet if i werent the one doing it, fi and his brother would probably have continue keeping those stuff till they in turn rot as well.
other than that, i'm enjoying my job a little more now... just the last trip to christchurch, i had an adventurous self-planned trip, drive-out 5hours out of town to mount cook to see the mountains. and my batchboy was on the flight. =)
it's trips like that that makes flying more enjoyable. (other than, obviously, the money lah.)
and i'm so loving the whole of today, we cooked my special tomato-based celery/carrots/chilli soup and had corned beef with onions on bread. stayed home and do nothing the whole day. it's days like that in singapore that i awfully missed. and it costs next to nothing!
gonna upload my christchurch photos on facebook soon. go see! =D
