~Damai Lagoon~...........Ultimate fun and relaxation

Just came back from Damai Lagoon , Santubong yesterday. We had our line dance retreat there. It was so fun being together with ur frens despite all the other aunties. I thought i'll be alone with my other siblings only but in the end some of my good frens (boys) join line dancing and also join in the retreat.

Starting from the beginning.......

My family packed our stuff around 11.00 and had fried rice before fetching my sister from school. We embarked from home quite late because of my brother who was last minute packing his things. After fetching Lavender(my sis), we head on to Tabuan Jaya to buy some titbits and junk food(hehe). I bought some meat pies for my mom and some "Kong Pian" or "Kong Pia" which is a local Foochow mini minced pork buns(something like mini burgers)for my brother and I to eat at Damai Lagoon. We enjoyed the trip to Damai. But one thing i hate the most is the super duper hot heat rays from the sun. I tell u i could have easily been cook in the car. Beside that i couldn't really feel the cool breeze from the air-con. Maybe it is spoilt......

Anyway, i was greeted my lush green coconut trees, four traditonal statues, and a nice fountain with cool breezes from the beach upon our arrival. Damai Lagoon is well known for the strong breeze so that's why the Lobby doesn't have any fans.Well i think our family were the first to arrive. I sat at the lobby and tried to rest because i felt nauseous. After a few minutes, aunty Shirley who was the one who book the room for all of us, checked in. There was about 7 or 8 rooms which were booked. My parents chose one . It was room 201!!!!!!!!!! The horror!!!!!! Teng teng teng!!!!!!!!*scary music from background*
Kidding kidding....Fooling around.........
Went into our room. I admired the hand-carved doors. No wonder the room rates are so expensive. Anyway, i ate my "Kong Pian" and enjoy the scenery from the window in our room. I also met Aunt Josephine who was one the ladies who took charge for the Kiddies Club in Damai Beach when i was young. She was shocked to see me at Damai Lagoon all grown up. She's now working in the tuck shop there. I bought a packet of chocolates since my mom was asking me to buy one. Along the way back to the room, finally Samuel arrived with his family. I greeted them.
Around 2.30 i went to the swimming pool and swam around . The pool was really dirty. A lot of mosses and SLUGS!!!!!!Addition to that, the pool has a lot of sand and sharp rocks. I got a few cuts too. But i manage to enjoy myself with Daniel and Samuel. We got out of the pool around 3.30 and ajourned back to our rooms. The line dance will start at 4.00 so i got ready and drank some 100 plus. The line dance team found a nice place to dance. We revised our old dances and learn a new dance "Butterfly" which is to the song "Butterfly" too(duh)
i'm your little butterfly.......
Green Black and blue................
The dance was pretty complicated. Took a while to get used to it. We finished at around 6 pm and got ready for dinner.

We grouped together at about 6.45 pm and drove to 'Buntal' which is famous for its seafood restaurants. We went to the " Sri Buntal Seafood Restaurant". Althought there was not much publicity, the homecook food were extremely delicous. I was sad as Samuel and Daniel's family decide to eat somewhere else but will be meeting us later at Damai. About the delicous food we ate:
-Salted chicken with herbs
-Stir fry vegetables
-Garlic Prawns
-Fish soup with Yam(SUPERB...best dish)
-Belacan(prawn paste) with Paku Pakis(wild vegetable)
-Curried bamboo clams
Ooooooooooooh!!!!!My mouth waters as i think about all the scrumptious food. I really enjoyed the meal. The cook cooked to slow...We finish eating at around 9.10..So late! Summore start eating at around 7.30.........

We went back to Damai Lagoon. My parents went for the Line Dancing meeting which was some discussion for the group at aunty Shirley's room. My bro and I went to daniel's room and played PLAY STATION!!!!!It was so fun. Played many common combat games. The line dance meeting ended so late (12.15 am). We make up time by playing longer and eating junk food while staring at the black box. Yawn..........was so tired by then.

I woke up around 6.55 am........I was so cold so i did not have a pleasant sleep. I went for the free buffet breakfast.(food again)Haha.............There was a wide array of different foods form traditional to wetern. I was really greedy......hehe....Gluttony........There was Mee Bandung(Malay noodles), Ampok ayam(curried chicken), Rendang(spice beef), Fried Vermicili, Congee, Fruits, Bread, Crossaints, Tarts, Jams, Yoghurts, Bacons, Cheese, Beef Bacon, Pancakes, Roti Canai(indian bread),Hot dogs, Scrambled eggs, Cereals, Fresh Juices, and SPECIAL OMMELETES WITH bacon, tons of cheese,and frozen vegetables.......Mmmmmmmmmmm......yummy........*mouth watering again. I couldn't eat much as i got line dancing later..... :( if not later got appendix.........haih~ Learn another new dance entitled"no matter what"....got may spectactors........even some white people join in and learn then hurried away....har har har.......I think they feel weird. :0 :).......

I went to Daniel's room and played playstation again......har har har.......a boys typicak game gadget........Went back early as i have to pack the things and check out with my family.....*sob

SoRry..................

I want to say sorry to those who has been visiting quite often and yet there is no recent post. Recently i had been very busy with my youth group and i've been elected as a cell group leader summore.Very stressful. WHo will hear my pain and cry?(over reacting).hehehehe.........But it is quite tiring.
This is what i do for one meeting:
-Call up my members
-Preparing materials
-Planning out activities
-Preparing myself so dat i'll know the materials in and out
-Being the teacher for everything
-Clearing the place up
-Shopping for ingredients
-Making sure everybody feels at home
-Paying for Photostating(sure pokai=bankrupt)

I didn't have only one meeting , i had THREE this week!!!!!
Oh woe...........Oh woe..........

But anyway it taught me a lot how hard is to be and efficient leader. It also taught me how hard Uncle Mervyn had to put up with us and to lead our youth group. I thought dat it will be easy leading but then it was very hard u know.............Because of different types of interest of different individual. Like someone want to do outdoor sports, the other want to some baking. Very tiring. SOMEONE HELP ME!!! Playing games also very hard to handle. If one doesn't one to play a certain game, the other will follow. I felt very dissapointed. I felt dat i fail. AAAAAARRGH!!!!!!!!! To add more on top, i was down with flu, fever,cough, and sore throat.

Anyway, i pray dat the strenght of God will pull me through this time of hardship(hehe).This is the following activities i did this week with my cell group.
-Bible studies
-Line Dancing
-Baking cookies
-Makan lunch
-Guitar lessons from Daniel Tan (thank you)
-Some outdoor activities
-Board(bored) games
-Chit Chatting
-Resting
-Having fun with each other

Good News is, my cell group is expanding from a mere 5 ppl to 12 ppl. Oh so susah(hard)!!!!!!
Haih~
Enough nonsense,
See next time.......
Ps: see my cursor i made............nice aye?
