7th May 2005 - Miami

We drove from about 7 pm the day before and reached Miami Dezerland Spa and Resort at around 1 am in the morning. We didn't do much but decided to just chill out.. sleep early.. relax for a lazy day at the beach tomorrow. Ohhh beach, and that means hot naked people! Yeah yeah :P Our hotel wasn't at South Beach, instead we were at North Beach and it was good because it wasn't as crowded and we got to enjoy the beach. I'm so not a beach person but I felt that I so needed some injection of sunlight into my life.. and so I decided to tan. I went down at around 1pm and came back up at about 5pm... check out the photos! :P

This is a picturesque picture of the beach that ting took. Beautiful isn't it?


I think I took a pretty nice photo.... a little fat though but I managed to get a pretty good angle to look slimmer...


So like a shampoo advertisement..


Nice? I like this photo


The beach was just awesome ...

Ok.. enough of beachy stuff... after the beach, we decided to go out for dinner.... some cuban food as suggested by Ramya and we were strolling happily to the car... we got into the car only to discover that it was vibrating very oddly... we got out of it and discovered...

1 flat tire! and we thought that was it... until.....

we saw the second flat tire! oh my god... we thought it was foul play.. but the hotel insisted that we could have drove onto something that slashed our tires.... we thought we were in deep shit...

2 flat tires at the same time... this sucks.... we were quite at a loss until I told ting to try calling the car company cause I suddenly remembered that they have a branch nearby.... she did and then we were wondering how they could help us... and then suddenly they told us that they were going to send a new car over! That's because we bought insurance and everything's covered... oh mi... Remember in my previous entry where I mentioned that we almost didn't get the insurance? We were so lucky that we did. PHEW

We waited for about 1 hour before the trailer and the new car came.... hey at least there was a new car for us to drive! Remember people.. always get insurance! you never know when you'll need it...

After that, Ramya wanted to go eat Cuban food but we couldn't find the place, we ended up near 14th and Washington Street and ate at this fast food like place that sold comfort food (think long john silvers, KFC, mcds etc)

We walked on a little and then ting was itching to go clubbing but sheena and I were totally un dressed for it....and so sheena and I just walked into a shop and bought chionging tops. It's one of the craziest things I've ever done in my life man! We looked hot!

We walked around and we found this club.. "Crobar" that natalie (the argentinian) mentioned over the Kobe dinner. Wow, there was a long queue and we wanted to find out how much it costed. Ting went up to them and asked how much was the cover.. the bouncer took a look at her and let her in for free! Fantastic! So Sheena and Ting walked in while I followed behind. They checked my passport and let me in but then they checked Ramya's passport and realised that she wasn't 21. They rejected us and pulled me out from the entrance. Oh my god. I thought that florida was 18 years old but apparently not! Then Sheena and Ting were told to leave the club.

We then decided to walk to other clubs and asked around and realised that it was indeed 21 to enter. This was south beach, no longer orlando. Damn! In the end we sent ramya back to the hotel and we drove back to the club at 2 am. We tried again (cause they already attached the crobar pass on our wrists) and they let us in, no questions asked... weird...

While inside, it was the most happening place ever, so many people, I got a vodka sprite and flirted with the bartender a little haha then we explored upstairs. We found this restricted area where members only were allowed but we decided to try our luck. We flashed our wrist bands and they let us through.. we then realised that we had a somewhat VIP like pass for the night and we were free to go anywhere! Oh my, this is what star treatment vaguely feels like and it was awesome. I never get such treatment when I go to zouk.

We took to a corner and started dancing. Then I realised this really cute guy kept coming up around us then he suddenly came into our group and asked us if we wanted drinks. I immediately thought of drugged drinks and I said no. Ting and Sheena said no too and we continued dancing.

After that, he asked ting if she wanted to dance with him but she said no and we continued to do our stuff. I observed him from the corner of my eye and saw that a lot of hot babes (think supermodel figures) were chatting him up and giving him kisses while the 3 asian chicks just kept in our circle, ignoring him. The bouncer at this point of time walked past us and him and he went up to talk to the cute guy and somehow pointed at us. Something seemed wrong at this time.

Suddenly, 2 guys (one fat, one ugly) came up and pulled Sheena and I away from Ting to dance. While we were pulled away, the cute guy once again asked ting "so now do you want to dance?" and then she did. It got quite sleezy with the fat guy trying to get cosy with me but as usual, I'll do what I need to do and keep his hands at where it needs to be. Lucky for the tummy, I didn't have to feel too much genitalia. Ewww. Sheena got the bald and flirty guy, poor girl. Anyway, from the corner of her eye, sheena saw this other girl who kept giving the cute guy a "throat slashing" gesture, signalling for him to go for a meeting. He didn't want to leave cause if he left, he knew we would go. What he did was to ask his 2 side kicks to continue dancing with us, while getting the other guys to dance with ting.

Sheena knew that this wasn't a simple guy and we decided to go. However the bald guy didn't let her off and she was really freaked out. Sensing her signals, I immediately told the fat guy that I really needed to go and gave him a customary peck on the cheek. (not the kiss, the friendly "smooching sound" when you put your face against the other person) I pulled the girls and we were gone.

Why were we so freaked one would ask... well according to Sheena's analysis, prior to dancing with us, cute guy popped something into his mouth, he has all the other girls falling at his feet, he was chummy with the bouncer and he knew a lot of people at the club. Furthermore which booboo would be asked to go for a meeting at 3 am in the morning and has a string of body guards / sidekicks except for a mafia's son? We concluded that he was one and the fat and bald guy were mere his 2 side kicks.

Quite at adventure I must say, but ting got the best deal of it all with the cute mafia's son... I must tell you, he was definitely one of the cutest guys around... *swoon* but then again, it was a dangerous night... Scary but exciting.. hehe... only just this once.. no more no more... anyway enough of this verbal vomit for a while, good that you managed to last till here... here are some photos for you!


Our "fast passes" aka as the priviledged passes...


Me looking weird in my chiong top.. supposed to show tummy but i stretched it down to cover my stomach... I was wearing my bikini under it... so yeah no boobs. :P


Ting.. after being picked up by the mafia's son.. but still looking damn good...


Sheena's chiong top.. quite chio... but apparently I couldn't fit into it.. so I didn't get that...
After taking the photos, we decided that 5 am was too late for any more activity and we just fell into a deep slumber...
