Cruise Control

Been crusing on Star Cruises (Superstar Aquarius) last week. One of my few indulgences in life (especially before I head into NS). I must admit it was a very relaxing and pleasurable experience. Just the 2 of us and lots of water all around.

Cost is a bit prohibitive if it weren’t for the off peak season deals, but I guess running a ‘hotel’ on the high seas equipped with a casino (from which JE won a total of $10.20 from), swimming pool, basketball court, bars, restaurants, theatre’s, excellent service, live entertainment, arcade etc.

Stopped by Penang and Phuket, did some sightseeing and shopping, and before we knew it we were birthing at Harbourfront.

And in what might be the most interesting turn of events, I didn’t touch the net once during the whole journey. (Even though the ship had Internet for an attractive SGD$8 / hour). You have my permission to be astounded.

In other news, I’ve added a countdown till NS on the sidebar. Here comes the feelings of apprehension as to what the next 2 years might bring…

    Dunno why I’m replying you here since you seldom re-visit posts, but yeah, thanks! =) hmmm.. lights off as in you’re commenting from the computer in the OCS bunk? =) Regardless, if my research serves me well, life after going to unit is tougher then BMT, so take care. =)

    And I shall just ignore the part about gov not touching ‘elites’. Doesn’t apply to me. =p
