8 days

I'm finally back from Redang Island! My relatives left yesterday afternoon, and I just hate that they have to leave so soon. The few days spent in Redang were quite enjoyable, and it's like a new experience because I haven't tried snorkeling before. I feel that I've gained quite some weight because i've been having buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner for 4 days and 3 nights. 

Snorkeling was pretty fun! But the sea water kept entering my mask. We fed the fishes bread and they swam directly to us. (Okay, the food.) There were a lot of striped catfish, I don't know the names of the rest of the other fishes. And I think it's really cool, because when you look down, you can see that the water is really deep, and it's blue, not murky at all! The scenery was absolutely breathtaking. But the bad thing about this trip is that the bus journey is around 9 hours long, but when we went back it was like 12 hours, oh gosh. 

Here are the pictures! :-) Didn't take many because i couldn't carry my phone when I went for snorkeling or to the beach.
These are taken during the bus trip at Malaysia! 
 This is the beach. Beautiful scenery!
Our hotel room number, lol.
More More Tea gift shop.
This is the place where we always assemble before going for snorkeling. :-)
This is one of the underwater photographers/lifeguards briefing. His nickname is monkey ha ha. :-)

I'm third from the right.
I look really funny. Didn't seem like there were so many fishes when we were taking pictures.
Before our trip to Redang, we went to Universal Studios. Was a tiring day. I don't recall taking any roller coaster, but we did take a couple of rides. 

She looks gorgeous. :-)
My aunts from HK :-)
Queueing for TRANSFORMERS The Ride, some sort of stimulator. Everyone on the 'car' kept screaming, including me! It was quite an exciting ride!
Love the carvings etc. 
'Treasure Hunters'
This picture is so pretty! 
I recorded their performance.  
I didn't take this. It seems silly haha.
End of the crate adventure. 
 Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure was fun, basically we're on this float and it turns round and round, and it unexpectedly went down the slope or something. I got soaked, then we dried ourselves at the drying booth because we didn't buy their ponchos. Lol. Also took the canopy flyer, it wasn't that bad!
I wish Singapore had buildings like these. 

I shall get some sleep now. Goodnight!
(This is roughly what we did when my relatives came over for the past 8 days.) :-)

Here

What an unearthly hour to be blogging. I've just finished reading the first book of The Hunger Games. It is a great story, but I feel depressed because all the other 22 tributes died and it was really saddening, although I already know the outcome of the story as I've watched the movie. But anyway I would definitely want to continue reading the other remaining books. I can't wait for the movies as well!

My relatives just arrived today, okay it's actually yesterday because it's past midnight. And we had buffet for dinner at Seoul Garden! We ordered more than 4 plates of chicken oh gosh. I mean just the 3 of us. Yep so we're going to the universal studios tomorrow and I don't feel really excited, maybe because I'm afraid of the adrenaline rush of taking a roller coaster. But it wouldn't be worth the money if I do not try.

Okay I should probably get some sleep as I've a long day ahead. Goodnight!
