HELLO!

YOOHOO!!!

I am back! It's been a very long hiatus. Almost 2 years! FML! From my last update since November 2009 until now, what have I done in the past 2 years? Deal check:

1. Any change in my relationship status? Nay. Not married but still with the same sweetheart.

2. Made money anywhere? Nay. Made some and lost all of them in fx trading, nett nett zero. All I can say is, do not invest in what you do not know.

3. Vital Stats change? Uh-huh. Horizontally-challenged. Ample bosom seems a lil extra.

4. New friends, new enemies? Uh-huh. Made a lot of new friends from various industries. Didn't turn any friends to enemies though, but I learned that some people come to our lives for a reason or a season. They gave me so much joy and comfort. I choose to believe they were real, only for that season though. If only I can classify them into different categories, a Reason, or a Season, or even a Lifetime, my life would be so much easier. No disappointments, no pain, no tears and no expectations. For those who came to my life for a season, thank you for being part of my life :)

5. Traveled anywhere? Uh-huh. A couple of times to Hong Kong for biz trip and that's it. Went fishing in Tioman twice. I need to get a life. whatevah

6. New gadgets? Hmm... an iPod which is already old now and faulty, a BlackBerry and *thinking* OMG! That's it!? Totally FML!

What has happened to me? Where was I? Time just seems to bid its farewell 2 years ago, I thought I just came back from Bali Holiday, not very long ago. It felt like the time just paused. Here I am, back, alive and kickin' to document a new beginning. It's never too late, eh :)

Cheers to reviving the blog heart

~*~Bali~*~
(Oct 23, 2008 - Oct 28, 2008)

First night at Novotel @ Tanjung Benoa

Second night onwards at Grand Hyatt, Nusa Dua
Very grand indeed. Grand Hyatt has a total of more than 600 hotel rooms and 6 huge swimming pools from Balinese style pool to modern-riverlike pool.

Hotel at beachfront

Lonely planet recommended this place. I say, "don't bother trying"

Looks may be deceptive

Pretentious I was.

Strong culture of Hinduism

..where Discovery Mall is

This place is so commercialised and overrated

Grand Hyatt Grand Hyatt!!!

Balinese spa at Kriya, Grand Hyatt

Had the Moksha - Harmony spa which cost me USD190 after tax

Everywhere is not walking distance in Grand Hyatt, at least not for me. I walk so much in Spore I had to get a buggy to get me to places within the resort.

Getting ready for some rejuvenating spa treats

..where I had my Balinese massage

After the scrub, I soaked myself in this sea salt island spice

Honey lemon herbal tea was served

I wished the weather was slightly chilly. Imagine soaking in a very warm bubble bath in the humid weather(38 degree Celcius), and drinking hot tea.....*sweats*

Lastly, relax and sip some beetroot juice

Ubud town where the rice terrace is

Enchanted Fantasy resort overlooking the rice terrace

Lurve the infinity pool

Diving trip at Lembongan. Underwater pics will be up later.

Grand Hyatt Lobby

Oh......when can I get my next hollie....

Last weekend was the Formula One season. The little Singapore was flooded with die-hard fans from all over the world. Celebrities like socialite Paris Hilton, footballer David Beckham and Oscars Leonard DiCaprio were rumored to have made appearance in the first ever night race.

I am not an avid fan of F1, but I was lucky to have gained admission to the race. *thanks to my boss, Pauline* My first time witnessing this great sporting festival. Nothing interesting, really.

But scenery was very interesting

Esplanade Grand Premier is where my seat was

I was very close to the track and it killed me coz I didn't have ear plugs

Like this great sporting event, you should not come back empty handed without goodies
...so here it is

spent S$70 on this Ferrari cap
