Missing In Action

Well, we kinda take turns to be MIA. First it was Juls then it was Mr. Chan and then it was me and not forgetting Mr. Chan again (Oh did I mention that Mr. Chan is into “fruits” lately? That’s why he’s constantly MIA. Haha!). But, Juls said that I still got hope and so I'm living up to her expectations. It's time to blog again. So what's been happening?

Let’s see... I think I need to back date slightly. After Juls has left for good ol' Beijing, I finally completed my MBA studies. Did I mention that it came out in the papers? Yeah, both The Star and the The Sun. My colleague picked it up and posted it on the notice board for everyone to see. No big deal. I mean graduating is one thing. Making full use of what I've learnt is another. So... life is back to normal again after killing myself for two years with my studies and work.

So… First of all, it took me a long while to get used to not having Juls and Mr. Chan on msn. Awww... No more constant updates and gossips. Man, what a lonely planet. Some people did ask me bout the two of them. Well, to some I said they've eloped and to others I simply say work.

Since they're gone I mean not literally but still... I've decided to find my own entertainment. No no. Not with camel though I do keep in touch with her. So last 2nd half of the year, I went to Singapore twice. Once in July and the other in November. Both times also for shopping. What else? It's nice shopping in S'pore. Everything seems so much cheaper there until I convert them back to RM. But who cares. Most important thing is I enjoyed myself. Tell me which girl doesn't enjoy shopping?

In December, I went to Phuket to spend my New Year there. (Now, this will be the highlight for my blog). It was truly awesome! It's a tropical paradise! You practically wake up and think of what to do for the day. Unlike KL, the time doesn't run by you so quickly and most importantly, I get to eat my favourite lobster and drink beer for only 5 bucks!! Hence, I drink beer every other day, more like every other time! Seriously, I've never had so much beer in my whole life coz I'm not really a beer person. But again, 5 bucks!!

Other than beer, I also get to visit the island that got swept by the tsunami - Phi Phi island. Did some snorkelling, swimming and well sun bathing. But, I'm still as white as snow. At least that's what everyone's been telling me, "Wei, you sure you went to Phuket? Still so fair??" Sigh! What to do.

As usual, shopping is part of my trip. I did not buy lotsa stuff for myself coz not everything is suitable but I did buy lotsa souvenirs to be given away. I saw lotsa interesting stuffs too during my shopping spree such as weapon of mass destruction, Star Wars characters made out of motorcycle chains as well as wires, wood carvings of frogs that when touched with another piece of wood produces the sound of frog and the list goes on. There’s this one thing that will interest Mr. Chan for sure. They sell lotsa SM equipments. You name it and they have it. Plus, it’s not that expensive. Mr. Chan not only can get cheap SM equipments but he can also hook up with some local so-called ‘chicks’… Go figure.

I encounter lotsa first time experiences during my trip. It was my first time on a tuk-tuk. They drive really fast and if you are unlucky, you might just fall out of the car. So remember to hang on tight when you hop on. And, it was also my first time seeing transvestite dancing and parading on the streets. I took some photos with them but unfortunately blogger does not allow me to post so too bad. It was also my first time drinking beer during the day and on the beach. As mentioned earlier, beer is 5 bucks, so drink till you pass out.

First time in my life, I did Thai massage. I went to this spa called Blooming Spa. Everything seems really nice, cool ambience, comfortable and friendly people until they started to use their 'hei kong' on me. I did not enjoy myself due to the pain. For 2 hr and 45 min, I had to endure the torture. It's nothing like the aroma therapy type of massage I enjoy back here in KL where I can doze off until the whole session is over. I was practically hoping that the Thai massage session will be over in no time!! Somebody help me! Nevertheless, I endure till the end! There was this last part where she’s supposed to ‘break’ my back and when she did, I kinda fell out of the bed. When that’s done, the session is finally over. To my surprise, I felt really nice after the massage. Every muscle in my body is loosen.

All in all, it was a good break away from the city life. I hope I can visit there again or perhaps another island – Koh Sa Mui?

Till then, this is Mat Rempit #2 signing off.

Wow, sounds like you had a nice wonderful trip.

Mr. Chan and I wished we were there.The girl chun or not? We wanna try the massage as well. With a little bit of 'happy ending'.

Bear in mind people, when guys go to Phuket, it's always for WORK and never pleasure.
