The sucky part bout this flight is the wait for our hotel rooms! gosh we had to wait 2hours before our rooms were ready, atleast the hotel provided us with breakfast so its not too bad... right after a quick shower we wasted no time! off we went on out sightseeing tour! We visited the Blue Mosque and the Grand Bazaar (the Turkish man there are totally "chi ko pek" trying to hit on the female colleagues of mine, there was one that really cracked us up! he went up to Ann and pulled onto her original Longchamp bag "thats lousy, from China. Come i show you mine good come come" HAHA OMG ROFL that guys a real joker. After which i took a quick trip to the walking streets 10mins away from the hotel to get my hands on 1.5kg worth of Turkish Delight for my beloved Otter and family.

Pardon me for this brief post but iam really tired as ive just got back from the Desert Safari tour in Dubai, thank God i passed on the "night life" some of the fellas have planned. Sometimes i wonder whats the fun in getting oneself all drunk and high? an advantage to some and a form of escape for others just a mention a few reasons i can conjure. You can say its pot calling the kettle black, yes ive got myself dead drunk before and iam not proud of it and it ends with me falling dead in bed. Sometimes i wonder apart from socialising and letting your hair down, how would it reflect on oneself if he or she gets drunk infront of a bunch of people whom you have only known for a few days your speech your actions your image, how much truth is there in ones word, someone whom you hardly know. Well ofcourse there are kind souls out there who really care and give you honest comments and feedback, but ive seen enough from where iam from to set my foot down on this matter to say MOST of these "tryers" are out just for a free fuck (both genders included, pardon my language) 8/10 flights and even if you are innocent of such "crimes" its so common being a "GS" you are stereotyped PFFff how negatives that huh? Hmm i must have got carried away... my colleagues and i have been talking bout our experiences for these pass few days and hence i decided to air my views, i'd better stop... for now.
Since thats the case i shall carry on blogging bout my return trip in Dubai. Its start off with touchdown as always (its like once upon a time) anyways yea dinner @ this place called "Silver Eagle" slow service but good food. I managed to get back in time to catch my beloved otter waiting patiently, shees such a sweetheart! it was late and still she waited... 2Am considering she has a flight in a few hours time, how much more can i ask for? sometimes.. no, infact i consider myself lucky and blessed to have her in my life.
The following day aka today, a few of my colleagues and i (Isac, Ann, Jeanie and Latha-Tyra ) booked a tour to the Desert Safari! It was a blast, we went on a 4x4 Dune Bashing trip, a camel ride, Sand Boarding (its like wake boarding but on sand), a wonderful spread of food and dancing under the stars with the belly dancers! in total we spent like 150Dhs/person which is like er.. / 2.5 = S$60. Not too bad for 1/2 a days tour. Ill elaborate and explain more along the way once iam able to post the pictures onto the blog. As iam listening the "The Piano Duet" from Corpse Bride i cant help but think about Edda playing away on the piano... its time to switch off the light now. Gd night folks

Got up early @ 4.30AM to accompany my little otter for a lill as she gets ready for work, she is one of the few whom i know can pull off a perfect and flawless "French Twist", Sending her off to work through the webcam sucks... i wonder how much longer can i take all of THIS (sometimes i wonder to myself if flying is really what i want once i settle down with a family of my own, i pray that God guides me along as i grow in life. ) After a few hours of sleep i got up and make my way down to this outlet called "Choc & Nuts". Sadly when i got there it was closed! reason being in Dubai, Friday is like an off day hence departmental stores and such only open late in the day! my call-times at 5pm and Choc and Nuts will only be opened @ 4pm... iam so disappointed, now i cant get the goodies i was planning to buy for family and friends :( SAD! iam gonna try rush down at 4 and get back by 5Pm before call time.

After checking and asking around i found out the Choc & Nuts opens only at 4.30Pm instead of 4. Call times at 5 which means RUSH! and i don't have that kinda time to spare, making another trip down would mean a waste of time waiting for the store to open and money on another cab ride! Somehow i don't believe that Choc & Nuts is the only store that sells Choco-Dates with almond and good pistachio nuts, armed with my determination and the fact that ive wasted so much time and money getting there earlier today, i hit the streets and asked around! and it all paid off! i found the exact Choco-Dates w/ Almond! and this ones packed in a more attractively then again its a little more expensive. Who care? i got what i wanted and thats what matters! Time to get ready for my flight back to Singapore :)
