Hmm back from fishing.. goodness wat a waste!! i'm still thinking abt not being able to catch up the HUGE stingray that took my bait. and hook.

goodness it almost pulled my rod and dragged it along the sand into the river swamp.. haha fought with it for abt 10mins, seeing it willfully swimming wherever it wanted to, and the tension on my line was crazy! had to let it swim where it wanted.. as it swam towards the shore, i managed to see it swimming graciously, flapping its sides majestically along the river bed. As i tried to reel it in, it dashed towards the deeper waters, and suddenly.. after a good 5secs, *PIAK* dammit string burst.
My dad's line got beaten off by the barracuda. that would have been shiok to fight. haha..

We caught 18 fish tho..small ones la.. mommy too..



Nicest thing though was the weather and wathcing the sunset over the mountains.. nice pic!

booyakasha!

*Yawn* just came back form LuLu again.. thats the hypermart that my parents visit every night. haha nice place tho.. =)

Well the past few days have been rather low key.. as i only go out at night where the sun's down. Have been seeing more beaches and fishermen shores lately, characterised by the almost-choking scent of salty humidity with the 40degree weather. Thankfully it was only 34degrees when i went! haha.. oh yes i need to head to the gym to stretch those cooped up limbs of mine.

The song 'Beauty and the Beast' by Celine Dion is stuck in my head.. 2:26 AM

i just realised that my photos hardly have ppl in them.. guess its cause i'm the one taking and my parents? haha they think posing is weird. Bahh..

Did you know(s)?
- The world's only 7 star hotel is in the shape of a SAIL, and there is an entrance fee of 1000dhs(est.500bucks)?
- Hello Kitty is an expensive boutique here? So is bossini, giordano and pretty fit.
- The camels here only have 1 hump (they're called the smaller versions but they're like 2.6m tall)
- Donkeys really look abit retarded.
- They charge 3dhs for whip cream @ starbucks.. ):
- Their chicken eggs here are pure white in colour, and taste different, texture too.

haha just got back from RAK.. thats short for Ras Alchaimah (hee dunno if the spelling is right)
went to one of the malls to walk walk.. =X

Okie.. Now take a look.



Thats how the locals dress man.. guys in white, girls fully covered in black.. OMG i tell u abt the females.. when they look at u it's freaki** scary k.. their veil is either totally covered or there is a small spacing at the eye level for them to see.. like some occult grp. Once in a while, you'll see someone with their face uncovered.. these are the younger gals who try to look more hip without trying to disobey the islamic laws.

Fact 1 # the local women (covered in ALL black) are the ones who purchase the most number of clothing in any store. And i hear they wear them inside their black scary veils..(for wat sia!)

Fact 2 # they always stop by the lingerie store (and the lingerie here are all the sexy ero kind) and they are the ones who always buy them. (haha i'm thinking.. they wear so many layers out.. if they wanna try something on.. it'll take abt 30mins man)

Fact 3# The local men here are HUGE.. most are at least a head taller and 2-3 times bigger horizontally than me.

Fact 4# Nearly all of them do discriminate against china. (form the mouth of a local)

Fact 5# The have LOOOOONNNNGGGG noses.. like.. twice our sizes.. (haha think thats one reason they dun kiss cuz well if u can imagine.. POKED)

ok enuff abt them.. more abt the place. Went to the Fujairah Fish market.. well.. you know its a fish market cause..



and man.. its bustling with ppl.. huge fish n man.. they sell 'this' at the markets.. i wanna try!


baby shark! rawr..

Went to their local hypermart n carrefour called LU LU..



they omg everything here is mega sized..

take a look at their eggplants..



one of the more unique stuff here are the spices and nuts.. the variety is like 67467995 and you can smell them far far away..



and if u have a sweet tooth.. these are their sweets. looks more like pastry.





haha ok la enuff updating..
leave u all with the international toilet sign.. (its the same here!!) =X



off for dinner.
Singapore time is 11pm. 11:00 PM

The country is generally dusty and sandy all over! The 6 months of heat has just started not too long ago.. KEL!!! if u do read this.. the airport here is 10 times bigger than the one in sg man! i had to walk like 25mins to get to stamp my passport.. zzz

Food's great! omg the food here makes the prata houses in sg look like they are poor imitation of the REAL stuff! had vegetable curry and naan with raw veges for lunch (its 1.50pm here, 4hrs diff) and it blew my senses alr.. then had beef bread.. which melts in your mouth *yummy*
