The whole bunch of us from IMD have been going out very often lately; birthday celebrations, airport-ing, catching movies, having meals together, and of course TRIPPING. 2009 might just be the year we hang out the most often outside of school :) Never had I expected that, after our Bintan trip last month we would be going on yet ANOTHER trip to the beach so soon with all 9 of the Bintan people including myself. The destination this time round will be Tioman, mainly because the guys are going scuba diving (they’ll be going for the advanced open water course after which they will be awarded a certificate), while the girls will snorkel. Booked today, thanks to Justin!

I also wanted to learn diving, but it’s not as though I would state that without any fears. Diving is even more dangerous than being in a plane, or so my dad claimed, and I must agree that any emergency situations that might happen deep under water are indisputably harder to handle alone. In the case of accidental choking on water, whether you surface quickly gasping for air or risk drowning for the fear of the nitrogen in your blood, either way you would have to face consequences. The more I imagine, the more it makes my head spin.. So right now I’m convinced by my dad’s decision of not allowing me to scuba dive. Anyway, I can’t swim for nuts so I won’t want to be the only idiot causing trouble during the trip.

Snorkeling with the rest of the girls sounds like a very good idea after all. I’m thinking of underwater photography :D Here’s a recap of the wonderful Bintan trip from 23rd to 25th June at Angsoka Villa Resort with the most awesome group… ^_^



This, feels more like blogging. :)
Tioman, 17-19 August! Beyond that, maybe even Hong Kong or Taiwan hehe.
