although i came to greet abit too late, but it's the inside that counts, right?
how have you all celebrated your new year countdown?
well, for me, i celebrated my countdown at sentosa beach party.
it was really fun and awesome as everyone countdown and dance to the music at the party.
1 word, Shiok ! .
Anyway in my previous post, i said i gotten post about my trip to kukup, and yes! this post will be the mix of how i feel, during travel and life at kukup.
It was 2011 still, when we plan to travel out of singapore for holiday and indeed it was plan and go on 2011 christmas day.
did i even tell you that i love to sit in the bus listen to sentimental music and watch the environment passes by outside the bus? i really love to do that, and during the trip, i sat in the bus looking at the mountains and some plantations growing in the big open field out of nowhere and several small house were build beside the plantation and without much of what you and me have now, like computers and whatever high-tech equipment, let's not talk about iphone or smartphone. infrastructure is horrible, traveling is a pain in the ass, and how about water?
Some of the people out there live in the plain house by the road side out of nowhere near any town, and for them to travel to town or any market (which i don't think they need since they grow cash crops or vegetables/fruits), it takes them about about 30mins to 1 hours by car, while over here, convenient store is like 5mins to 15mins walking distance in a normal HDB settlement. Wondering what are their parent or those adult working as? how much they pay for their expense and the land they stay in per month, really had me wonder. During the travel to kukup, just by looking out of the window, you really can see 'life', how much stuff we have taken advantage of yet we are still asking for more, the mix feeling i have during the travel can't be written in words.
Which after, we reached kukup, it was flooded, due to the high tide from the sea actually.
kukup is a village by the sea, feel relaxing and definitely a good getaway from urban city at a low budget. Went to fish farm in the middle of the sea and with KTV and mahjong in "chalet", 2 zi char for lunch. and 1 BBQ dinner included.
it is definitely worth it. and also during night, we bought fireworks to play and also to celebrate christmas and new year. 2 days 1 night, it was all we had, and awesome enough for the time over there.
peace yo.
