The Annual Company Retreat
Hi I am back from Bintan.
Quite enjoyable but could be better if you guys catch what I mean. Went to Martha Tilaar for Spa it not bad but I have to hold my laugher for the whole 60mins because its so ticklish! And I am so tensed up and practically gripping the bad edge to stop myself from bursting out lols.
A view from the villa's balcony. There's actually seaview but our photographer (fellow colleague was too engrossed on our faces rather than the sea at the back LOL.
Back to Angsoka Villa for BBQ preparation then went off to Mangrove & Firefly Tour! The fireflies were so pretty they lighted up the whole mangrove swamp and got one particular firefly stayed on my opened palm throughout the whole boat ride, which lasted an hour plus. How cool! Oh and the sky were dotted with stars its really amazing cos I have never seen anything like that except in photos (those in glossy magazines which were photoshopped I suspected). No photos from the tour cos they were impossible to capture using normal digital cameras. You will need DSLR for those I guess.
I drove the buggy around the resort and I think Kelly and Jeff were so scared by the ride they actually jumped out of the buggy before I stopped (they don't allow me to drive alone as they are still treating me like a child -.-). LOL okay you need to have license to drive one but I have none and this is my virgin experience hence I guess my terrible driving skills were pardoned.
Okay I am at the villa yard in this photo :D
Mahjonged til wee hours and I woke at 530AM in hope of catching the sunrise from the villa balcony and alas the sun is alr up in mid sky >.<

FYI at 530hrs the sky at Bintan is already SUPER BRIGHT. I guess its pitch black back in SG.
Went to the beach nevertheless to enjoy the vitamin D from morning sun and the waves were really strong yesterday (you can't see from this photo). But the place is this bright at 6AM.
But for now, someone to lift my spirits. :)
Okay will only post to here now cos I am posting using the company's camera! Haven't upload from my own cam cos I am tired/ lazy/ totally dead from 5pm yesterday til 5am today and I went off to work after moping here and there and there I am, blogging while working. LOLS.
Will update with a nicer photo with the mid-rose sun and extremely chio waves in the next post.
Am super shag today, plus all the SHINGZ people around I felt so burned out. I guess I just need more sleep and xoxo to recover.
Til then, xoxo <3
