Summer is over, again!

Thursday, August 30th, 2007

I cannot believe how cold it was this morning, I’m not joking I had my scarf on walking to the office. By the time we get back from Bali I probably need to get my winter wardrobe out again! We hardly had any summer this year (what global warming!!) We were so lucky to have a sunny bank holiday weekend last week, although our annual Bournemouth trip with the gangs has been canceled and we ended up relaxing at the park and having BBQ etc which is equally as nice!

So yeah, 3 more days to Bali! Very excited! We are dividing our stay in two locations, Ubud and Jimaran.

Ubud in central Bali is known for it’s art and Balinese culture & tradition. This is going to be our home for the first 5 days - 1322160_6_b

We are spending another 6 days in Jimbaran , I believe there’s nothing to do except lying by the beach sipping cocktail and sampling the local delightful seafoods!Intercontinentalresort What a boring place!! :)

Hopefully we won’t be gaining too much weight, I am ‘planning’ of a yoga session everyday in between those spa treatments and sunset dinners on the rock. I will make sure Mike bring along his gym kits too :p I will be posting all my lovely photos on my return, speaking of which, I’m still waiting for my lens and camera bag, they better turn up tomorrow!!

I love first day of the month cos it’s pay day! AT LAST!!

I needed the money as I have decided to treat myself after completion of 6 months probation, unfortunately, I have spent (much) quicker than I can earn so I doubt there will be much left once I have paid all the bills & mortgage… oh well, just another 31 days to go before the next pay day!! and by then, we are off to Bali for some decent sunshine! I’m counting down…

Must get back in shape though or I won’t fit into my new bikinis (yes, I have bought two new sets this year) I’m lacking abit of motivation lately, plus all the indulgences of comfort eating didn’t help (all those pastry, coffee, wine, crisps…) Need to get my ass back in the gym!

Oh yeah, took my niece out for dinner last Saturday for the first time but I doubt she’s enjoyed her first restaurant experience. She spent majority of the evening screaming & crying, I guess all those people and noises must be quite scary for her, but at least she enjoyed checking out the bartenders and she love sucking her whole fist.. aii baby!
