G.R.A.C.E Guts, Rythmic, Articulate, Endeavours: Perfect beach day

Saturday - 2/7/05

I woke up 7am in the morning and looked out of my window. Sunny day with bright sunshine. A smile grew within my heart. This was a hint given to me as it had been raining cats and dogs for the past few weeks. The weather for the past weeks was really nasty and unpredictable. Even more unpredictable than the PMS syndrom of the women. As if running a mood swing competition against the women, it changes from cloudy to sunny and from sunny to rain, in just a blink of an eye, a click of the button , a strike of the lightening or any other best adjectives you can think and describe of.. Yes it was that fast. The hint was obvious. Perfect day for the beach. I trust my intuition and I'm glad it didn't disappointed me.

Without wasting any more time, I quickly went through my bibble a.k.a the travel guide book, looking for the nearest and good beach to go to. Repulse Bay , that's it ! It said on the book one of the popular beach in Hong Kong. I wouldn't want to compare the beaches in Hong Kong to the ones back in Malaysia because it will be pale in comparison to what we have in our tropical land. So I qucikly told Yurgo about my plan and asked him to gather all the IEASTE people as fast he can. Three hours later after we got our lunch and went for the bus ride, we find ourself lying on the beach of Repulse Bay. Amazing :)

Of course the water is not crystal-clear ( instead I noticed myself swimming with other unexpected companions like plastic bags other than with the girls), the sand has rocks which is big enough for me and Kian to play the Malaysian childhood game "Seven Stones", but then again ....we were having so much fun with everyone here engaging with their own activities ( for guys it were the 'Bay Watch' ;p , for girls were the frantic sun-block application competition ) , so who cares about the sand and sea as long as we were lying on one ?

It was my intuition and impromptu plan but everything else just fell nicely into without any pre-arranging or pre-planning. Perfect isn't it ? :)
