View from Thai Restaurant where I had my dinner the 1st day there. Very nice ambiance. Windy, nice sunset, moon & stars at night sambil ada orang hiburkan dengan mainan guitar yg sangat lembut dan calming.

Afterwards berendam dalam bath tub, syampoo rambut, hangout with friends @ the lounge while waiting for 12am to wish myself a happy 29th birthday. All in, perfect day.

Earlier, after check-in, masuk bilik and crash onto the huge bed (which I had all to myself), read a good book by the window, hangout at the balcony overlooking the garden and the sea.

Petang tu went out to checkout what's around the resort. My room is conveniently located near the main building so I don't have to wait for the shuttle. Redup, because trees all over. Tapi ada monyet, but they're friendly. Walked down to the beach, hanged out there for a while.

I was the only Malay there on my 1st day. And, I was alone. I can say all of their staff did a double take at me. Must be because I was alone, walking cheerfully, but then dressed so selekeh tak suitable nak jadi guest hotel kot. Jeans lipat2, selipar jepun, pasir dari beach penuh kat kaki dan jalan tanpa arah tujuan.

Almost everybody became my friend that day. They're very friendly. And they HAVE to ask if I'm there alone. By the time my friend checked in that night, I was already her tour guide for the hotel and every story the hotel staff told me. Ye, aku sangat kepoh. Segala benda aku nak tanya staff kat situ. Aku cakap dengan semua orang, except the AngMohs sebab aku bet diaorg ingat aku tak geti cakap omputih. Ekekeke..

Next day when I checked out, finally pakcik yg jaga shuttle to tanya, "Dari semalam saya nampak awak ni jalan sorang2. Awak memang sorang2 ke?". Hahaha.. And then came those younger guys barulah nak gelak2 sekali. Cet! Sepanjang aku kat situ takmau tegur ke, berkenalan ke.. apelah!

It's a walking distance between the resort and the cable car, plus shuttle boleh hantar for free.. so I went lah. Absolutely empty, unlike the last time I was there during CNY, had to beratur berjam2!. Anyway, of course the view was awesome. I stayed up there for like, an hour. Wanted to go on the bridge, but tak ramai orang takut jugak kan.. and it was SO hot! So I stayed under the shades just staring far into the ocean.

It's a great break for my brains. I love it up there. This is my 3rd time being up, and definitely will go again.

I made friends with a guy who worked there. Budak lagi, baru habis diploma. I was alone in the cable car and he wanted to accompany me up. So I said yea, why not. We chatted. Of course didn't exchange phone numbers. He looked kinda shy. Maybe he was looking for somebody fun, but unfortunately I'm kinda old and gave him a good talk about cari kerja baik, how to search for jobs and basically how to live life. Hahah.

Hanged out with friends afterwards @ Kuah. Didn't buy anything, tho. Kinda tired of chocolates, too young for Corelle and liquor is off limits. So, keluar masuk kedai tak beli apa2, cuma tanya2 soalan bodo2 kat tukang kedai jek. Padan muke diaorg. :P

Flew out @ 9.30pm and so damn tired this morning nak bangun gi keje. Nak MC tak sampai hati. Why oh why!

Emotions still in control having to face him today again after a whole weekend break.

Go, self. You can do it.
