SUAY TO THE MAX!

Ok. This post is going to be image heavy and it shall start on a not so happy episode of my life but nonetheless, it was quite a dramatic day... hahaha! Of course I gotta blog about it.

Alrights alrights. So everyone's been asking if I'm ok or if i'm dying or if I can walk. Answer is Yes I can. Even after being stung by a Portuguese Mano!war.

The blue colour was really pretty. Even in my state of panic, I noticed. :)

After abit of research, I realise, its not EXACTLY a jellyfish. More like some species similar to it. And its a really beautiful blue in colour thing although yes, its sting does hurt like hell. :(

Let me tell you about all that drama.


So we were at Lanikai beach (yes I must say it is THE MOST BEAUTIFUL beach I've ever been to in the world. EVER. So far anyways.) with Ping and Eun and I decided to head over to the water and dip ourselves in the translucent, greenish blue water that was just absolutely beautiful but FRIGGIN icy cold. Imagine waking up to a sight like this each day. Your private beach.


The houses around there cost 4-5 million bucks. I can see why....

Ping. :)


So anyways, after dipping in we decided to lay flat on our tummies at shoreline to just talk and let the cooling water seeping around us. *blah blah blah* and all of a sudden this sharp pain gripped my leg. Felt like some sort of needle just piercing my shin and my calf getting a whipping.

*SCREAMED LIKE HELL* and turned around and started yanking out the stuff stuck on my leg. It was like those korean people eating the squid and its tentacles just stuck to you. And not knowing it was dangerous I used my fingers cos I was in a state of panic. (Thank God I didnt get secondary stings on my fingers) and SPRINTED all the way back to Ping, who started washing the sting with water. Thank goodness the pain subsided and the swelling started but disappeared after awhile.

This is my wonder sting. Swelling. But its gone now. :) *click for clearer view*

Went over to Kailua Beach Park after to get the lifeguard to spray vinegar solution thingy on the thing. Told me it wasn't dangerous and that it was common in the area. So I'm alright! No fever or pain or vomiting or anything. Just that there's this super UGLY red line on my shin now. I hope it doesnt scar me for life! :(

Ugly ugly go away... :(

Ok but other than that, we had a really awesome day! The weather was just absolutely perfect and Ping was a great host in showing us the entire windward side with all the tiny islands and just absolutely amazing houses. If only I had that amount of moneyyy... Sighhhhh...


Thanksgiving & Black Friday

Realised that I didnt blog much after Thanksgiving. haha! Maybe it's cos I was just too busy packing away all the shopping that I had no time to blog about it. hehe!

So went over to Jamie's house for thanksgiving where her husband cooked a really nice turkey meal. Delish! And we just sat there for a time of fellowship and movie watching. LOVE ACTUALLY! :) Oh and of course discuss our plans for black friday.





Eunice and Jamie! :)

For those who have no clue what black friday is... its basically a HUGEEEEE sale that happens throughout the US starting the day after thanksgiving. Malls open at 6am. Certain big names like MACY's and Old navy opening their stalls at 3am. Basically, its shopping MADNESS!

So Eun, Jamie and I met at the mall at 6.20am. And OMGoodness gracious me. We were 'late'. The queue for our vice, Victoria Secret already had lines that were SNAKING out of the shop. It was about 100m away from the shop ok.

Look, The shop can't even be seen, but its past lego. lol!

Ended up buying massive bags of stuff for OTHER people. hahaha! And shopped for a whopping 12 hours!!! Believe it or not, but I have broken my record and my wallet. hahahaha!

Our shopping by 10am. haha!




LOVES!
