oo... ok.. i've not been blogging since.. last last saturday? well.. lots of things have happened during this long long period and here i am today blogging abt them.. haha!

so truncated.. i cant remember much abt that last week just that sarah thomas pon-ed school for the last two days.. well, at least i can concentrate better in class.. haha! and limpon couldn't come for EL and chinese because of her trip to indonesia.. so back then, we discussed abt class chalet. so yeah.. it was confirmed we are gg to have it.

last saturday. woke up early in the morning to prepare myself for the 2days 1 night batam trip at KTM resort. before leaving for harbourfront, went online to order the food for the bbq yesterday, monday. so it was ezb and the food was delicious.. the class cleaned the chicken satay in a matter of mins and stingray was also on the large.. LOL! it was wanted badly.. reward? haha! tasty sambal stingray? so anyway, batam trip. overall an ok experience.. the uncles on the trip will super hilarious.. they joked abt spa, money, food, practically everything la.. was really fun hanging out with the different uncles and aunties.. yeah.. and also! it is kinda funny when u meet a teacher's aunt on the trip.. LOL! my mum wore TKPSG's shirt on the last day. she was the organiser for the whole trip so ya everyone noticed her and her shirt so this lady talked to her abt TK and she was ms koh's aunt.. whoa. haha! wat are the chances? LOL! ms koh come better? haha! ok.. so ya mrs koh i presume, she asked how was ms koh as a teacher and talked abt ms koh and her daughter who was from tk too.. from band? yeah.. so ya.. i don know who but her daughter has left tk last year.. so ya.. band seniors.. anyway, got pictures from the trip.. just the place.. yeah.. it was really a plesant place.. except, u can totally hear frogs croaking at night.. and they are just outside your room.. haha! but overall. totally cool place.. the tour guide said that many indonesians will book rooms on new year eve, so they can watch our fireworks.. LOL! pro.. they actualli saved boat ride fair.. and u cant imagine how close the resort was from singapore.. i managed to contact ruiwen from the resort.. so ya.. rest assured and stay there, u will be away from singapore at all.. except when u get out from the resort for shopping and stuff..

so the pictures..

this is the resort's name. KTM RESORT.BATAM

they had go-kart? at the resort.. 20 sing for 40 mins.. so ya.. track is super small if that was the designated track..

they have many pool tables there.. and to me, the tables are huge.. it was situated at the dining area.. the background is the dining area.. breakfast was horrible.. seafood shld be just fine. since they are just beside the sea.. LOL!

this are some rooms beside the lobby.. they are i guess smaller than my resort hse.. yeah.. it faces singapore directly though.. haha!

this is a rock which u can see clearly.. which means the sea is quite shallow? well, this is near the shore.. quite clear waters? nah.. haha!

ooo.. the resorts room, tents for the swimming pool from dining area.. u can see several huts at the background.. those are the resorts house..

the guan yin statue.. it is 21 m or feet tall? there was another small statue, erm.. one-third of this statues height.. the smaller one was made small cause the indonesia govt didn't allow a tall statue of guanyin.. but the owners decided to build a taller one facing singapore so that indonesia's govt cant see it.. haha!

ooo... this was taken from my resort which was up on a hill.. the red roof is the dinning area.. background? SINGAPORE! the tall bulidings and all that.. that is marina south? yeah.. oh ya! u can totally conclude singapore is a bright city.. from my resort room, u can literally see how bright the sky was above singapore and how dark the sky was at my resort.. u can see the stars at batam but not at singapore.. looks like we are too bright.. haha!

the back of one resort.. look at the length..

closer view.. they have a balcony for us too.. total coolness.

the fishing area behind the dining area.. a lot of ikan billis..

the left view of the fishing area.. quite a cool pic cool place.. haha!

same left side.. my purpose while taking this pic was a desktop pic.. so ya.. the cliff is on the left so the right, can be filled with the icons.. haha!

fishing stand? LOL! it is a ledge for fishermen to stand on and fish..

a salt water millipede? this is half of the body from previous night's fishing..

three pics show the seawater-filled pool and a small pond beside it.. the red board i think states the prices to use the pool? i don know.. but if it was so, then it would be lame to pay and enter the dirty pool.. u shld see how yellow the water was..

the dining area.. fully air-conditioned by the sea breeze...

this is way to my resort room.. the one on the left is my room.. no. 2.. yeah.. they have a log built bridge to connect from the room to the rooms.. realli realli cool..
