Scheduled a Batam trip with Mel after the end of my internship and boy was I glad for the breather it gave me. 

I was drowning under the work load I imposed on myself that I just needed to get out and do nothing much but to chill, literally.

It was a pretty awesome trip just because we got to do what we intended to do there, which was nothing.

Woke up super early, like 6am or something 'cuz we had to reach Harbourfront at 715am.

Thank goodness I had a friend send me down if not I'll never be able to make it on time.

And I literally survived on only 30 mins of sleep because I was out the whole night.

Met Mel at Harbourfront to check in before we went for breakfast ^^

The ferry ride took us about an hour or so and I'm super happy to announce that I didn't get seasick at all! Was so worried I would and that it'll ruin the trip.

The first 8 hours or so since we reached Batam was consumed by a city tour. Sadly we had to go if not we'll forgo our massages so we dragged ourselves from stop to stop.

I can't even remember most of the stops that we went to but this was taken after lunch.

Then we went to some temple......

And had some weird performance that was seriously disturbing...

And a bunch of other places that I can't remember 'cuz we didn't take photos there heh.

But we reached our hotel at about 4 ish and I felt that the hotel's pretty decent for the price we paid for it! 

Just look at what greeted us as soon as we took the lift up to our floor.

And when we started unpacking....... Heh.

Check out the amount of skin care and cosmetics that 2 girls bring out with them. Mind you, we were only staying for one night.

We decided to have some drinks before heading out for dinner!

If you like pina coladas and getting caught in the rain~~~~

And basically, this was our agenda for the trip.

Went shopping a little when we were out for dinner and we got matching bags and wallets yay.

Slept pretty early 'cuz I was totally exhausted and then we woke up early the next morning for breakfast and some time by the pool.

Managed to order room service and the food was pretty decent! Both in taste and price, think it costed us only $25 to order 2 mains, a soup and drinks?

And then sadly it was time to pack up and leave. I'm already missing the days we spent there because my life is back to being its usual face-paced self again :'(

Seriously longing for another mini getaway or even a staycation.....SIGH.
