went Batam over the long wkend! spent 3D2N at Harris. very slack and spent most of the time in the resort. Almost the whole resort is occupied by singaporeans. cant find any place which sells food nearby and so had the 1st nite dinner and next day breakfast at the resort.

1st day went exploring ard the resort, den went back to swim awhile b4 heading to the cable ski park. First time trying it and it wasnt as easy as it seems, haha. Tried the kneeling down one, and i tink it was a wise choice. Cos its was already exciting enough and not easy alr. The pulling force was very great and have to grab the rope very tightly, keeping arms straight while being dragged around the water. Din get past the 1st turn the 1st time and landed in the water at almost the other side of the water park =(. Very tiring to swim from where u drop to the bank and have to push the board while swimming. keep kicking and dun seems to be moving and so used freestyle to swim. got quite breathless and had to rest a few times. no stamina, hahah. And the most gross part was the green and muddy water. and when i walked on the bank of the water park, it feels like stepping on shit (not stepping on myself). Initially thought i had to walk all the way back and told myself i dun wan to play anymore, haha. But after a LONG LONG while, a motorbike finally came and rescue me back, hahaa. 2nd time got past the 1st turn but couldnt get past the 2nd turn. Irritated, haaa. SO after swimming in the gross water for the 2ND time, decided i had enough. $20 for 2 tries. At least it was an experience cheaper than that in SG.

Dinner was buffet, including some bbq food, at the resort, with live music entertainment by the hotel staff. they even go from table to table to ask ppl to sing or dedicate song. and they noe all kinds of songs, ranging from Jason Mraz to Beatles, from Eng to Chi, cantonese, hokkien songs, though i cant really understand wad they were singing at times, haha. but generally the buffet was overpriced la, for the quality and taste wise. though the staff were really quite entertaining =D

Next day morn was v nua. woke up at i-cant-rem-wad-time, had breakfast at the resort again, cos i was really too hungry. not worth the price again la, but wad to do? need to feed my hungry stomach. slacked and took nap in the room after breakfast =p. aftnn took the shuttle bus provided to Nagoya shopping centre. basically not much there either. but at least there were better food. Had A&W for lunch, but it wasnt really v nice either. wonder where to have the nice original A&W. bought KFC back to resort for dinner and bread for next morn's breakfast. went for a 1hr foot reflexology which was not bad. But still feel like kicking the person in the face when he massage certain areas of my legs.

A very slack weekend. but time still pass very fast. sometimes I wonder, y is time ALWAYS in a hurry, cant wait to fly by, refuse to slow down and it will always have the last laugh at those who try to compete with it.
