OMG it's been almost a month since i blogged, thx to maldives and then the stupid IE dying on me. mus be my stupid brother who always plays online games and attracted hordes of virus, adware, spyware and the like. brrr. nvr got a chance to blog before leaving for the maldives cos we thought there would be time at the airport. blah wadever. at least my IE's working now and spyware and adware sux.

Maldives was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. On Kudafari, Noonu Atoll, 186 km north of Male, Maldivian capital, I spent 10 (ok, 9) days with 34 other people without internet or mobile phones and only the sun sand breeze and sea! yay!! haha. Life was very simple. Sleep, wake up, eat, work, play. No need to think of time, cos traversing cross the island took only 5-10 at most. No need to think of wad to eat cos u jus ate wad the villagers prepared for you. no need to think of wad to do cos there was always work to be done. It's jus a simple life and the people are nice and the place is beautiful. and the 9-10 days let us got to know each other better cos there was only us to distract ourselves and no major disruptive influences of modern technologies. Even disruption in power and water supply could be overcome with listerine. and there was lotsa fun to boot: night-fishing where i didnt catch any, visit to tsunami devastated islands, visit to uninhabited island and bbqed fish and of course late-night bitching/gossiping in the room or on the net-seats under the coconut trees. oh ya and island exploring and radio channels when moving sand and all the AJC and ACJC activity. haha too bad if u dun understand, cos who knows who's reading this. all the irritating First Aid nonsense and the comcomm guys and log comm and food com ppl. then the IP kids haha sorry. and the villagers. argh. cant stand it anymore. oh ya and the school was so simple and so small. Ppl in NJ, dun ever complain again. actually Aj also and all other schools in singapore. their sch, up to grade 10 (equivalent O levels) is not even the size of 1 football field. Then there were always the friendly neighbourhood stalls of Kuredhi's, Sahtha, Naadu and Moonima's!! and literally kicking up a storm(sand) when the whole herd of us walk through the streets, waking the dead of the island in the process haha. dont regret going, who cares abt common tests? there's always CT 2 but no Kudafari part II.

Kudafari,
in the deep sea,
this is where,
i wanna be.
Kevin sim,
my best companion,
with my backpack my buddies and me e e :)


PS: anyways for the CTs, we(ok at least S6 students) have survived 3 SPAs, 4 A-levels subjects and 1-2 AO-level subjects in the short span of 3 days. Kudos to all of us. left a bit more on mon. all the way.
