I'm home. I'M HOMMEEEEE! I got back more than a week ago actually. A very very much delayed post, I must say. Sorry to keep you all waiting. :)

I did some shopping over there, and got some realllllyyyy good bargains. WAHAHA. So, that makes me a very happy happy girl. The malls in Surabaya are like WOAH. Imagine the ones in Jakarta, even better. They put malls in Singapore to shame. And the stuff there is like 1000000000x cheaper. Can you believe how happy I was whenever I went shopping? LOL. But considering the stuff I bought, I don't think I spent alot. Mummy and Daddy paid for my loot, so I don't really know either. Wahhhaahha! But I didn't buy much either lah.

I would prance around all the shops, twirl my hair around my fingers and tell the sales assistant, "I want that (points at the bag), that (points at the heels), and that (points at the jacket). Oh wait, make it four of everything in the different colours." Yah right. That's just a dream that hasn't materialised. But maybe it'll in future. I hope. :D No pressure for my future husband. :P

So, anyway, while I was there, this is where I stayed. And that's actually the back view of my house only. I've a fountain behind my house. Nice right?

YEAH RIGHT. I'm dreaming again. This was the house I could see from my parents' balcony. It's fucking huge. Probably 3 times of my present house. And they probably have 20 maids in there.

This is part of the golf course I see from my dining room's blacony.

And this is the mini park downstairs which can be seen from my room. SO PWEEETY!

Besides shopping, swimming, jogging, watching cable and lazing around at home, I visited some attractions also. Well, must do they typical tourist-ish things when you visit a new place what!

The wife of my dad's colleague, Lisa, who's only 28, brought my mum and I to the safari park and an apple farm. Woweee. The animals at the safari park are skinny, and the apples are teeney weeny. She wanted to bring me pubbing on Friday, but my dad was being a brat so he said "NO". Ptoooi.

Anyway, this safari park is soooo cool. The animals are roaming in the wild, so we drove our car into the safari park, but cannot wind down the windows lah, or the animals will probably claw you. Wahhahha.

ROAR! Very skinny lions.

Mountain goats? Billy goats? Whatever you call them.

The very impolite hippo.

One of them had its ass facing my window and it was poo-ing pebble-looking shit.

We also visited an apple farm. The apples were very small!

I never knew apple trees were so short.

Very bare apple trees with no white flowers or apples.

Pretty nursery at the apple farm.

That's about it for my Surabaya trip. Nothing remotely exciting happened, but it was a relaxing getaway I must say. I miss having the driver holding the car door open for me to get in our out of the car. I miss the maid ironing my pillow cases, bedsheets, pyjamas, and even my panties. WAHAHAHA!

Ever since I came back, haven't been doing much except for lazing around. Went to enroll for driving finally, and I just went for the theory lecture on Monday. It's Wednesday already, and I haven't started studying for the theory exam, which is next Monday. Got 500 MCQs to look over. Yuck. I hope I don't fail, cos if I do, I'll bury my head in the toiletbowl. It'll be too much of an embarassment to fail my theory. And no, I'm not gonna bribe the JPJ people so I can pass.

Doreen turned a quarter of a century old on the 20/03. You're old, but Happy Birthday. :D Daphne's turning... 23 on Saturday. TWENTY THREE, DUA PULUH TIGA, ER SHI SAN, VINGT TROIS. So sister, stop living in self-denial. You're 23, not forever 19. WAHAHA. Sorry to burst your bubble. :P

The boyfriend and I went beaching yestersday. The weather was horrendous. It was gloomy and was practically drizzling the entire day. We were so smart cos we forgot to check the weather forecast. So, most of our day was spent under a small pavillion- eating, drinking, playing Scrabble (nyeh nyeh! I beat you at Scrabble!), reading, and talking. Sad weather, but very happy people at the end of the day. And we took the beach tram ride a round trip, like freaking tourists. WAHAHAHA. And then we walked here and there at Harbourfront Shopping Centre, had early dinner and someone got a new pair of very very pretty slippers. Levi's lagi. Lucky ass. But I would never spend extravagantly on a pair of slippers. Not my style.

So, anyway, I'm going to send my laptop to MEL Centre for a reformat this Friday. This poor laptop of mine is always half dead. But I love it still. Love it almost as much as I love my boyfriend. WAHAHA! Or even more. :P

Ouch, the right side of my tummy is starting to hurt very badly again. I woke up suddenly today morning, trying to turn myself to the other side, but then I had this sharp pain in the right side of my tummy tumtum. I had no choice but to wake up, lie on my back, and continue reading my Sheila O'Flanagan book. It's not appendicitis. I had mine removed when I was eleven.

Think I should go take a shower now, then study, or I'll fail the theory exam, which means then, I really need to stick my head down the toilet bowl.
