1. Our big outing for the day was a dinner sunset cruise, meaning that we had the whole day to lounge around the resort.
2. Lounging around the resort consisted of numerous games of ping-pong, to which I got crowned the “Queen Pong” by some vacationers, and lots and lots of swimming. Snickers and I definitely are common faces at the main pool at the resort. The towel dudes, pool waiters, and even many of the other pool-goers know us now.
3. Snickers and I have stuck to our rule of speaking only Korean when others are around and that in itself has definitely brought much amusement to us considering the strange things we’ve been able to talk about in front of others… hahaha. So far I’ve had plenty of practice with my Korean, the other day I got to practice my Polish with the crowd of Pollacks playing volleyball, I threw some Japanese words out the other day to a father and his son playing in the pool, and then today my French got tested. The “No diving” lady that yelled at Snickers the other day repeatedly shows up at the same pool Snickers and I hang out at but today she was a no-show. Two of her friends approached me today and apologized for her yelling at Snickers. In high school I took enriched French up until about grade 11 but that was about 11 or 12 years ago and so I haven’t practiced in forever. Surprisingly enough, a lot of it came back but I had to laugh because every time I stumbled to find the right word I ended up blurting out Korean as supposed to French or English.
4. Amused the French couple by reciting a French speech I had memorized long ago for my grade eleven final exam. Coincidentally, it happened to fit in perfectly with what we were talking about, family.
5. 15 minutes worth of Internet cost me about $3… ouch!
6. For our dinner cruise, Snickers and got picked up at the resort and took a one hour ride to where the boat was docked. It had started raining a bit but oddly enough the rain just totally added to the romantic feel of the evening.
7. What killed the feel of the evening though, temporarily that is, was the appearance of yet another he/she performer. I ask ya, what’s up with transvestites being the big in-thing here?! And the thing that I find so funny about the whole situation is that they stick out like sore thumbs because they always seem to go so extremely overboard with trying to look like a women. I’m talking about over-the-top sexy clothes that kill the sex appeal because of it being so over-the-top, caked on layers of make-up with exaggerated eyes and loads of lipstick, and ultra fake looking hair. There weren’t a lot of us on the boat cruise but the he/she had way more make-up on than all us females combined… scary!!!

Sorry for the bad quality of this picture but we had traveled in an air-conditioned van for about an hour and so the lens totally fogged up when we went outside.
8. Snickers was quick to pull me out of my seat and take me up to the rooftop to seek relieve from the horrors of the he/she. We cuddled in the seats and chatted away about random things.
9. Snickers’ new dream – buying a boat and not just any boat but a huge cruise ship instead. He’s got big dreams of hitting it big with his boxing and aims to become a world champion, so he’s always making up promises of what he’ll do when he hits it big. I, on the other hand, of course I totally support him and don’t doubt his incredible talent in boxing but am perfectly fine living the life style I currently am. Unlike so many people who are struggling to get by or are in a job they hate, both Snickers and I are doing more than fine. Anyways, Snickers had talked earlier about wanting to take our families on a trip together somewhere some day but tonight he came up with the so-called perfect solution with regards to where to stay and where to go. “If we bought a boat we can just sail to where ever whenever and sleep on the boat!” he said with a huge smile. 
10. Returned to our resort after watching an incredibly beautiful sunset with no real plans left for the evening and so we went swimming. We’ve been doing plenty of swimming. There are four pools at our resort. One pool is solely for doing laps, while another one is designated for playing basketball. Another pool has a volleyball net set up. It’s set up to look like a beach and so there’s sandy beach shore that lines the pool. They also host daily exercise classes and games in this pool. The pool that Snickers and I are huge fans of though is the main pool. It’s got an island in it that has palm trees on it and there’s a bar also in this pool that you can swim up to.
