Tioman Trip 2008
Finally got the time to post about my Tioman Trip. Had lots of fun. Made lots of friends. A little disappointed with the Ferry service at Mersing, hours of wasted waiting waiting. Both on the departure and the arrival date.

(Arif, my decade old friend, and my police buddies.)
Well anyway, the 5 of us (Arif, Khazam, Irman and Irwan and Myself) met up at Kranji MRT station at 9am on Saturday right after my last night shift of my vacation Job and left for Tioman Island, Malaysia. We decided to go by the cheapest traveling means but a traded off time for money. We reached Salang Beach resort at Tioman Island in the evening…
Tioman Island is beautiful. Clear blue waters with nice soft sand on the beach. Lots of nice people too. We didn’t go trekking but we went snorkeling and kayaked for a few hours. Enjoyed the sun and had lots of seafood. Oh yes, I like the Sambal Sotong dish too. 
Ariffian taught us verbally how to make the Sambal (Chilli Paste) though nothing registered in my head.
We visited the Beach Bar for a “Beach Party” since it was like the talk of the night. Somehow, the beach party wasn’t really what I expected but yet fun. Arif and I kinda bonded with Nick and Mas at the bar. We were just having small talks and yeah it was a fun night.
All in all, it was an unforgettable experience with my friends and I felt like the trip was too short. We managed to give Irman a blanket party. Made lots of noise in the room playing Taboo till our next door neighbor knocked on our room’s door to tell us to shut up! Lol! Wished I could have stayed longer. Got to know 2 Vietnamese-German sisters and an English teacher from Australia and got in touch with the aquatic world.
Too bad Khairil and Iswandi couldn’t join us.

Twas good, wish we could have gone on to explore more of Malaysia after that, maybe Perhentian islands or Taman Negara, sigh… Too bad, we were working. We’ll its Europe next year, just be ready for that!
Iswandi: The wedding better come with a Videographer hahaha. I wanna watch your performance. I hope our the next trip will be nice on my pocket.
Ariffian: I would have loved to stay on Tioman for another couple of days before exploring the rest of Malaysia.
Too bad we didn’t plan such a long Malaysian holiday. Hehehe.
