Cold

How long can I go on

taking in those sharp mindless comments that sliced through my heart?

How long can I go on

listening to empty heartless words that play with my emotions?

How long can I go on

withstanding the cold?



Feels as if I'm always the one that is standing outside the door.

In the cold.

I'm always the last one you would ever think of.

I might not be even the one you had thought of.

It's cold, has always been...



Your heart is so small, there's no more room for me.

You do not see nor hear me.

I'm invisible, out in the cold.

There's always someone else before me, above me...

I do not exist.

But I'm just outside, standing in the cold.



I feel so tired...

It has been going on for so long yet I still feel the cold.

I can't understand why do you always do what you did to me

You forsake me, you reject me

I can't find the way to your heart

I'm so cold out here..

Burnt Toast

Wheeeeee I'm back.... As in back to my blogspot I mean...
And I'm back from my holidays tooo....
Ain't went nothing far but me and my SO decided to have a break at somewhere quiet *sighz*
Singapore is way too busy for us, man...
We spent our little holiday at Bintan Agro Beach Resort.

I absolutely like it there coz it is not too commercialized ie I won't be waken by screaming kids early in the morning or having to fight with millions of others for space at the pool.
Not that I can swim but it does feel good when it seems like the whole swimming pool is for me and my SO only and that's what we got for our holiday.

Okies maybe we were there early part of the week thus the whole resort seemed like a ghost town. Yet my friend whom recommended me this place, had been there on a weekend and it feels juzt as deserted. *good*



~SO Being devoured by mysterious teddy bears~


Day 1 - We tried one of their spa package for couples and it was really good.

First the lady asked us to strip and soak in the jacazzi.

"15 minutes and I come back" (they can't really speak good English)

My SO must be a bit slow coz he was like, "where is the undies? Am I gonna be naked when she's back?!"

I couldn't help but laughed at him and merely enjoyed my soak in the tub.

When the lady came back, there was another (lady). They proceeded to scrub our bodies and we gotta rinse the coffee smelling scrub off. Then came the massage, that was sooo good it put us both to sleep.. *blush*

Next was the body mask, another coffee smelling thingy and we were wrapped up in some plastic sheet. Last was the herbal bath which kinda made us uneasy. Why? Coz the water was kinda hot, too hot for the smothering heat outside and we were perspiring and dying to put an end to the whole session.




~ Spa room layout ~ (pardon my pic taking skills)

In the evening, we chose to take a ride out to the main town of Tanjung Pinang. The itinerary stated that we would be taken to a 2 popular spots; a shopping center and a outdoor eating place.

We were aghast upon reaching the shopping center, for it looked exactly like the Sheng-siong main outlet in Serangoon. I was really expecting to see clothes or some local products which I can bring back home but Bintan 21 was really more like a mini-mart. Period.

Me and my SO decided to satisfy our hunger pangs and we went to this Sam & Anne (I think that's the name coz I couldn't bother to spend too much time reading a neon signboard) restaraunt. It's more than a Asian version of Wendys, I guess. You get fried chicken with white rice, a handful of fries and coleslaw that look so pitiful, I wonder why they were there on the plate in the first place. Couldn't care more, we were hungry and we devoured our meal with relish. Ain't good but it filled us up. Proceeded on the journey to the eating place jus to have a look to satisfy our curiosity. Amother bad move coz the place was nothing more than a few stalls in a dark dingy place that's facing the sea. I had seen more life when we were travelling to town. Me and SO took a 5minute walk to and fro the place and decided to get out of there. We requested to go back to the resort which was another 45min ride. By the time we get back, Minority Report was already half way into the show. Nevertheless, that was entertainment for our first night there.


The 2nd moring I woke up bright and eager. SO had said we shall wake up early for the sunrise. Alas he always forget the fact that even if the sky falls down, he would still be sleeping. Meaning I woke up early but failing to get him out of the bed, I went back to sleep too, missing the sunrise. When we did finally got up, we were the last persons in the breakfast queue. (to be frank, there was no queue, we were the only ones there eating brekkie)

After brekkie, we had the option of foot massage or island tour. Chose the island tour coz the sun was good. Island tour means they would bring you to a small isl opposite the resort. You would be left alone on the isl and the boatmen would come back for you in an hour or two. (pending on your options) We took a two hour option coz I wanna a tan and an hour doesn't seem enough.

How wrong I was! Now I'm burnt like a toast and it was sooo tedious having to bathe and slather cream to smooth myself down. SO ain't doing that good either. He seems to be in pain more-so than me but served him right for not applying suntan lotion.

We had dinner in one of the restarants in the resort. The whole meal came up to S$27. There was fish in lemon sauce, squid rings in chilli sauce, chicken soup, kangkong and 10 sticks of chicken breast satay. (SO didn't like chicken breast and so I finished the bulk of them *burp*)

Overall it wasn't too bad, better than what we had before in Sam & Something restarant. Then the wait staff cleared our table and brought out some side plates.

"Did we order dessert?" I asked wide-eyed at SO.

He smiled and said nothing. Then there was a birthday cake!

Pretty smashed up... I believed the resort staff had got it in a hurry and thus had caused the cake to be smashed against the box. But it was a sweet gesture from SO and there was a pretty red rose from him too.

*awwwwwwwwww*


Too bad the wind blew out my candle before SO could finish singing the birthday song. Nevertheless I made a wish. *winkz*

We couldn't finish the cake and the balance was for all the wait staff in the restarant.




~ my cake~ ~pretty smashed up~

Third morning, SO was rather sad to return to Singapore. Me too. I like the quietness of the place and time really seem to pass us by slowly (but not slow enuff!) The place was like a paradise, so hidden from the world. Me and SO talked of going back there again and I definitely hope it will be soon. *wide grinz*
