Vacation : What really happened.


Hm, what is there to say about it? I literally did not go anywhere. Well, I did, but only the usual places. 75% of my holidays were taken over by movies, the Sims and casual get-togethers. 

The highlight of my holiday would probably have been my oma's birthday and when my best friend Anna, came over to visit.

Anna and I got our belly’s pierced, which was quite an experience because it hurt more than it did when I got it the first time, a lot of blood involved too. Thank the lord the process of getting mine re-pierced wasn’t as bad as Anna’s. It was the worst feeling in the word watching Anna get hers pierced, the piercer was pulling the newly pierced skin, and blood was everywhere, not to mention that Anna was screaming in pain and that she had to get it pierced twice. Not saying that this specific pain that my dearest friend had to go through will happen to everyone, but you never know. I cried though, legit. But surprisingly, we went swimming the next day. Risky... But you only live once! Painful yet a fun week, sadly she had to go back to the Philippines. I guess good things do come to an end. (I apologise for writing this 'gruesome' paragraph!)

This was taken at 2 in the morning, ignore the panda eyes.
Moving on…

My oma's 63rd birthday party! It was fun, in a strange kind of way. A gypsy attire was involved, but I kind of messed my wardrobe up and I ended going with a dress and a pair of flats. But there was a DJ and a lot of other things you would not expect to have happened at a 63 year olds birthday party, also a cake with 2 awesome candles! Apparently, if the party didn’t have a DJ, she felt like an old grandmother who knits all day in her living room. Don’t get me wrong, I have nothing against grandmothers knitting.

Old mama's.

The cake.

Grandma with her Tumpeng. It's a cone-shaped rice dish like mountain with its side dishes (vegetables and meat)

One of the upsides of living in a hot, humid, tropical country is the fact it's always sunny. It's a sort of  a permanent summer, reallySo visiting the beaches, being all tourist-y was fun, especially in the hot, hot sun. Awesome rhyme right there. 

Waterbom was great fun too, also the beach club in Dreamland, known as 'Klapa' was a regular destination. Its nice but don't expect anything too fancy, it's not California, but it's clean and breezy.
 A nice place to just chill and have fun with friends.

Yes, those were basically the best part of my holidays. Other than that it was out for lunch/dinner, play the Sims, watch a movie/tv series, dance. I was such a lazy-bum this holiday, but oh well. It wasn’t a bad ‘summer’ after all. 

Though I feel like I had the most boring holiday ever, compared to everyone else in this class.
