just got back from mexico! had a nice sleep on my nice comfy bed for abt 7hrs! really missed my bed, haven't been sleeping on it for quite some time. mexico's quite a nice country, the scenery and everything was great, except for the air! but the badness can't be compared to china's. china seriously need air cleansing man. the amount of dust on the roads and pathways is so bad that when the car drove past, a layer of black stuff comes spiralling up! gosh! lucky for us, the bowling centre is located within the hotel and we ate most of our meals in the hotel too, so we seldom ventured out of the hotel, saving our lungs from any agony!
i realised that i haven't been blogging the past year till the state that i declared it dead. thus i've decided to post a blog in mexico since i had plenty of time! but alas, everything in the webpage appeared in spanish and since i couldn't figure out how to sign in and read those alien words, i can't blog!!!! how sad, :(
it wasn't hard to spend time in mexico! besides bowling, we spent a tad bit of time in the shopping centre! i'm so proud of myself for spending 0 pesos on shopping! other then that, we spent loads of time in the rooms watching tv and dvds! i got hooked on a serial that me and jazzy watched till 3am just to finish that disc and it wasn't even near the ending yet! there was free cable in the room to log on to the internet but i couldn't get connected so i just blamed the windows vista for everything. somehow or rather this vista programme sucks! everything just can't seem to work! why the hell do microsoft keep upgrading their stuff, it just makes things complicated! i had to settle for the free wireless in the lobby! its just so troublesome to keep going down just to use msn!
the event officially started on sunday*i think*. time passed really fast when the competition started, before i knew it, i finished the events already! it was also due to the fact that i didn't qualify for masters! but what the heck! its over already! blah! didn't really bowl well but it wasn't as bad as when i bowled in china! china was truly a disaster, every shot i made was not on line and i pulled almost every shot i made! at least in mexico, most of the shots were on line! proud of that!
everything in bowling alley was expensive! from the mineral water to the souveniers! i guess they jacked up the price of either that the standard of living is really high! a 500ml bottle of water cost 17 pesos, which is abt $2.50, quite costly! the souveniers are so expensive and they aren't really nice, which is why i came back with almost nothing to give away! ahaha! the photographer was the best man! he took photos for everybody, then developed them to sell at 40 pesos each! abt $6 a piece. on the 2nd last day we decided to buy some photographs, i happily took 3 pieces and shoved 50 pesos into his hands and walked away, come to think of it, i was rather mean! anyway, i figured he would have earned quite a tidy sum already! then on the last day, the korean guy gave 200 pesos for all the photos and walked away, i thought it was a pretty good deal for the photographer but the americans just had to make some noise. she complained to the photographer that the koreans are too much to do that and he should not take it lying down. in the end, the koreans returned the photo. gosh! in my opinion, there's no point for the photographer to keep the photos anyway, giving him 200 is better than nothing right? what would you prefer, 200 peso or a bunch of photographs with no use???? outright brainless!
let me back track a bit! the flight to mexico was terrible! we had 2 transits, one in toyko and the other in dellas. when we reached toyko, it was abt 6am in the morning! our flight was scheduled at 11am, however, due to some mechnical problems with the plane,they had to find other plane to fly instead and the flight got delayed 3 hrs. we had coupons for lunch! that made me happy! FOOD! then we took a nice shower! quite an experience! we missed our flight in dellas but luckily the next flight wasn't full so we do not need to stay the night in dellas. we got tickets for 7 business class and 3 economy! and i got sorted to the economy class seat! the coaches and mel was nice to offer their seats to us! and tata! i got business class seat! whippee! my first time! it was nice but the flight was so short! and there wasn't warm macadanium nuts! drats! *i'll get my nuts one day of another, rae wen*
for the flight back, all was well! we had a long transit in japan again. after lunch, we walked around for a while before going for a shower. after that, we went royce hunting! it was a futile attempt! guess i'll have to buy it expensive in singapore! when we were at the boarding gate eve told me and jazzy that louis khoo was in the airport too and his boarding gate was next to ours! we decided to go look for him and walked towards gate 81. i cleverly walked pass louis khoo without knowing it, jazzy was like kicking my luaggage and i didn't even realise it, what rotten eyesight! if i seen him, maybe i'll pretend to fall or something! haha! then i can proudly say i had contact with him whatsoever! after he walked passed and jazzy told me that, i burst out laughing hyterically, and he looked back! i guess he must be thinking that i'm crazy or what! who cares anyway!
looking forward to singapore open now! really hope to do well! haven't been able to participate in it for ages! all because of exams! lucky for me, i differed my studies for a semester! so i've been free for abt 11 months already! my brain is like rusty already! cannot think straight for long! better start lubricating it now before school starts, or i'll die a horrible death!
ooh! after world women, i think diandra's really cute! is cute the proper word? i dunno! haha! but her short shirt and shorts makes her really CUTE! shall post her pic! this statement is so random! but anyway, as mentioned earlier i can't think straight and haven't been writing for a long time, so never plan properly. besides, i'm never good at writing essays! GP was such a torture! okay! shall end my blog here! will post some pictures and videos! bye for now! maybe my next blog will be another year later! who knows!
