12:50 PM...............................................................................
I figured today is a good day for blogging.
Because i woke up with no new smses to read on my hp.
The bible says "Sunday" is the day of rest. Needless to say, the bible is right.

I was at vivo yesterday.
In fact, i've been out almost everyday.
I've reached the "I better go out or i might go mad" stage already. Ha-ha.

Oh yes. Back to vivo. Know the Swedish ship that is docked at vivo?
My mum bought tickets and we boarded the ship for a guided tour. Yeah, i wasn't keen on paying 10 bucks for the tour initially. Felt it was a -complete- waste of money. But since my mum insisted, what can i do right?

So we were brought around the ship by this 21 year old smoo (term borrowed from sharon) chap.
Apparently, he has been on ths ship for a month, working with the crew, travelling from Sweden to China to hk to indo to Sg. It's pretty obvious in enjoyed the trip thoroughly. Guess he fell in love with the "love boat" he was on.
Oh. He also fell in love with something more than the ship, but only realised he "missed her after she left" the ship. Aw~.
Right. I suppose to blog about the ship.. Hm. It's made of solid teak and oak. And i really mean solid. No "空心" type of wood. Steady.
Showed us the sail. How life on board the ship was like. They had a library, internet corner, kitchen, bedroom and erm a barrel which is the laundry monster on the ship.
Learnt alot from the tour.
There are also more females than males on board. How cool.
And according to the tour guide, the Swedish are real nice peeps without a false front unlike us, "ugly Singaporeans". I guess. Like what shan said, you can only see how "ugly" we are after seeing the rest of the world.
But at least we didn't pee and spit on board like the Chinese did. What a disgrace to us yellow skin people.

Really admired how people can like take a sem off their studies and go sail half way round the world on a Swedish ship. Gawd~ I can never do that. That's why my life is miserable and boring and pathetic staring at the bidding system hoping that i won't be outbidded/taking modules alone everyday. (No offence intended)

Yep. Help the ship travel a little further by visiting the ship lah. (which is gg to sail away soooon...)

Makes it hard for a depressed person to be depressed. Press press.
