at sea
for once, we had breakfast at red velvet to try it out. finally able to scale down my food intake! seriously need to work out!!!!! walked round the deck for excercise and saw our african friends. tried to make paper flowers but i just couldn't do it! had the same teacher as the salsa dance. so embarrasing! i'm the only one in the group who can't make the flower properly. did 4 and only had 1 successful one cos that one was half done for me by my mexican teacher! lunch was vege and desert, couldn't eat! went back to sleep before dinner at red velvet again. today's theme is italiano! so everything was italian. boat was decorated with red, blue and white balloons and italian flags. even the dinner table and the waiters were dressed in the 3 colours. had a special desert which the waiters brought out and paraded round the room before serving. and we had various small cakes. had more time to talk to our waiter, who's from yogyarkarta. many waiters are from indonesia too! watched an italian singing show, with the last song being 'time to say goodbye'! the female singer spoilt the song but the male singers made it fantastic! after dinner, received the flowers that were given out. these were the same flowers that i made, but those i made were red whilst those i got were white. different batch of flowers.
