1st two grad trips has pass, 3 more to go??

I dunno if grad trips were supposed to be just one but did I mentioned I am going on not 1,2,3 or 4 but 5???

Wow...I didn't know how it escalated to so many but it just started to add up from the Seoul trip that the regular BAF holidayers spontaneously decided to buy on Xmas Scoot sale, then Phuket+Bangkok with JC friends was added, followed by Taiwan with the ME guys and Tioman with Tembusu Offtrek. And in May, I booked an extra surprise trip with my friend to Turkey. There is only one word to describe this two months of this year.

YOLO.

I am glad my parents are supportive and encourage me to travel so much before I step into the working world :)

So after graduating from Tembusu and NUS unofficially, (Officially still need to wait for results on the 2 June and commencement on the 15 July.) first is the trip to Tioman which was a really short trip as we only reached Pulau Tioman at about 530pm despite starting the day at 630am due to ferry timing issues. We played around by the beach that evening before having dinner and having a drink at the beach. The next day, we had a 3 hour trek to the next town that was quite hilly but not too difficult as we were not carrying any heavy equipment. Then it was quick lunch before a ferry trip back to our place where Zhimin and I went for a impromptu dive trip. Damn a shark was just like 5 metres away from me and I missed it....zzz... Oh well, at least I got to see the pretty corals and fishes and proved that I have not forgotten everything from Open Water Course 3 years back. Then we went back to find the others, where I snorkelled a bit at the sea near our living quarters. Some of the others spent the afternoon reading, or swimming or kayaking... then dinner time and more alcohol at the bar! The next day we had to take the 630AM ferry back and that was it.

Even though it was not a really long trip but it was action packed and quite fun to hang out with the Tembusu Offtrek peeps. The group was a little big so it was difficult to coordinate things to do for everyone so I'm glad it was free and easy and everyone had a great time there!
