This was another trip to Pulau Perhentian Besar off Kuala Terengganu on 10/06/2006  . It was truly a trip full of fun & laughter  and packed with unforgettable memories. This trip is dedicated to my close buddy on land and underwater, Ridzal, who will be leaving Singapore to the land down under (Australia) for 2years.  So this trip will indeed be a milestone for us or at least for me. Unlike other trips, this was a road trip that covered a distance close to 1300km along the coast of Malaysia. (back & forth) It was the longest drive I had ever taken my new car on and did ‘she’ do an excellent job 'or what' throughout the journey. We had awesome company throughout the journey as 6 of our best friends came along on the trip as well.       This was a road trip and diving experience all in one. I had not dived at this island before so i really didn’t know what to expect from it but unlike the last time I dived in Manado, Indonesia I just kept an open mind about it. Pictures tell a thousand words so I hope you enjoy viewing some of them. There will be some underwater pics as well. They’ll be up soon enough.

Took a short diving trip to Manado, Indonesia on the 2nd of Dec. . It was really not how i expected it to be.  I had a great experience diving in the Gili islands, which is also in Indonesia, very near to Bali. Hoping to experience somethin like that,i went to Manado expecting turqiose blue clear water, but got otherwise. Nevertheless thanks to my diving buddy, Ridzal, who invested in an underwater camera for this trip ,i got a hand at taking some pics underwater. We did see lots of small creatures in the waters of Manado. I'll be putting the underwater pics as soon as i get them from my buddy so do look out for them and give me your comments (if you wanna!!). This are some of te pics we took on land. Hope you enjoy viewing them. Jumpa Lagi ya..... 
P.S--> I clocked a record dive on this trip. 1hr 20mins underwater.(Wow! and *phew* i didn't run out of air)

Hi Peeps,
Another remarkable diving trip to record and what a beautiful one it was. Initially i had planned to revisit Cebu in Phillipines for another round of diving but we ha some problems and settled for Lombok, Indonesia instead. NO REGRETS AT ALL!! You have to see the underwater pics taken to aw at the beauty of Mother Nature at HER best. The trip was really another life changing experiences for me. i went on this trip not expecting much but i got more than handful i must say. I really missed my 'Sweets' very much during the trip and i really must thank her for letting me have this experience in the first place. Really appreciate her for the support she's given to my hobby.So guys hope you like the pics and if there's one place you wanna go to get away from the stress and bustling city life, you have to visit the Gili Islands. You won't regret it!(provided you like snorkelling n stuffs like that). ENJOY VIEWING THE PICS!!! 
(P.S--> Viewer Discretion Is ADVISED)

Mission:- To give my room a new look in 3 days.
Never thought that painting could be so therapeautic.it took me the whole of the long weekend to complete this task. No time to even spend with my friends or sweets. Really a test of my character.. i'm glad i PREVAILED!!
