i will tell you one time

heyhey,

gah i miss christmas island sooooooo much.
i woke up at 4 pm plus today,
and there was nobody at home.
i miss the feeling of waking up with friends all around me.

well, a summary of what happened..

almost everyday we got wet.
because we go to ddifferent beaches to spent time there.
we went to this place where there were blowholes.
it was really pretty
it looked like a different place all together!

at the beaches, we would either be swimming, playing with the waves, picking shells or exploring.
found many hermit crabs too.
really fun :)

we would wet the bus seats with our wet bodies.
(:

we watched TOOTH FAIRY on saturday night.
it was an open cinema.
unlike singapore.
it had natural wind.
the stars were above us.
it was really cool, once in a lifetime indeed.

there are only certain shops, no shopping centres.
only one supermarket.
one post office.
one souvenier shop.

its a really small island, on the tip of a extinct volcano.
how cool is that!

that fateful night when ranran and i spoke to mr jo before speaking to everyone.
mr jo was really funny.
when some of them walk past us, he quickly changed the subject to christmas island.
ranran and i stunned there for awhile.
hahaha,
he was really quick.

his GOODJOB is stucked in everybody's head.
well at least mine, and a few others.
GOOD JOB!
with that accent/tune/tone.

nightly debrief in the home ec room.
and the natural way of saying..
"good evening mr jo and ms lin"
everytime we start our debrief.

being on a small island that is surrounded by INDIAN OCEAN.
with all the aussi people greeting you ,
making me feel as if i have known them for a long time.

going into the jungle/forest, to see the small cave,
to count the number of red crabs and their burrows, the seedlings,
and everything.
walking through spider webs,
stepping and crushing branches,
holding a stick as my protection.

picking shells at flying fish cove,
walking by myself all the way to the other end of the beach,
lying on the ground with my friends ,
star gazing, and singing songs at night.

tricking mr jo that we saw a dolphin in the sea.
hi-5 ing with each other..

having sandwiches for our picnic lunch,
bbq at different places.
eating the school canteen food,
pigging out at the home ec room at late nights.

using the mac at the imac lab.
having lessons with bernie and eating snacks to keep ourselves awake.

fighting for toilets.
ahahahah,
bathing in the male toilet :P

doing a flip off the speed boat.
panicking, because i didnt want to be eaten by the baby shark and other fishes.
screaming unnecessarily to make our speed boat ride fun-er.

crashing ms lin's room,
and playing truth or dare with her,
lying at the beanies in the library, listening to the stupid and retarded stories vong tells us.

snorklelling , and counting coral reefs with dee.
seeing all the different fishes,
trying to touch them but always failed to.

getting mozzies bites, and putting a lot of sunblock.
being in the INDIAN OCEAN,
playing wiht the water,.
seeing all the crabs,
trying to get them,
going to the waterfall.

doing our report for our presentation,
last minute realization that we gotta put in everybody's compiled data.
heart beat was skipping fast.
crying and crying.

crying at the airport,
and all the officers would be asking us why were we crying,
telling us that we can always come back.
but the thing is, we need everybody to go back,
if not it will be totally different.
the thoughts of burning our passport.

and seeing the moon just before we boarded the plane.
for the first time,
we saw a moon there.
when we had been wondering why were there so many stars but no moon.

oman.
time just flew pass so quickly.
it seemed like we had not been there at all.
or it all seemed just like a fairytale.
a really long dream that i had.

i dont mind going back there again.
(:

I LOVE CHRISTMAS ISLAND!
the best place ever!
