Just got back from Rotorua last night! We went there with the whole KBRI people. The trip was fun, although it was much more fun two years ago when lots of my girl friends went there too. This time, the girls were only me, Likta, and Fifi. Oh yeah, we went there on Friday morning. And I was in the same van as Fifi, heehehe =P
The most fun part was when we went riding on the Luge! Gladly, this time I wasn't the only Indo girl who played the luge. Cos last year in Queenstown, it was just me and a whole bunch of guys (Yuli would just sit down 'n watch, same as Ayu). This time, Likta & Fifi were excited to ride the Luge! Hehe!
Well, it wasn't such a bright day when we started riding the Luge. The sky was cloudy, but gave no signs that it was gonna rain. Anyway, on our third ride, it started to rain a bit. At the end of the 3rd ride, we got wet of course (but only our jackets & butts, hahaaa, it looked as if we peed on our pants!!) We didn't care, cos we still got 2 more rides to go!! So instead of going inside the restaurant to wait for rain, we continued to our 4th ride. In a few seconds, it was raining real hard!! And in the end, we got totally completely wet!! Literally!! My pants were ALL wet as if I soaked it in a bucket of water. For real! I'm not kidding! And my hair got all wet, as well as my face, and the rain began to soak underneath the I-thought-it-was-a-waterproof jacket. After the 4th ride, we thought it would be crazy to continue to our final Luge ride, so we decided to stop and went back to the van. It was already time to head off to the Thai restaurant for dinner anyway. But surely we couldn't turn up looking like we just swam with all our clothes on. So we had to go back to our motel first to change clothes.
Oh yeah.. my black-framed glasses that I got 3 years ago from Indonesia got bent!! Aaarggh! How dumb! I hardly felt like wearing my glasses, so on my 1st day in Rotorua, I put it inside the pocket of my brown cargo pants, and nothing happened to it. But on the 2nd day, I was wearing another pants (and it's got no pockets), so I put my glasses in my bag. I thought it was gonna be OK, but in the afternoon when we reached the Gondola thingy, I wanted to wear it, so I took it out of the bag. And to my surprise, my glasses got bent!!! It was weird, cos I thought that if someone bent it like that, it should've got broken. But nope, it didn't break! And I thought that if I sat on it, it should've got broken as well. But nope.. it didn't break! It just got bent in a way that it should've got broken!! And till now.. I still kept it a secret from my parents. I'm gonna have to get it fixed in a glasses store soon..
As I had predicted, my hunny bunny didn't even make an attempt to contact me at all when I was in Rotorua. How disappointing.. how sad.. how pissed off I am 'til now!!
Hmmm.. OK then, that's it. There's a lot more to tell about my trip in Rotorua, but I'm sleepy rite now, hehee..
