its the holi, holidays....

today's the last day of school & then starts the one week holidays. which means, i have to make the eleventh hour's enquiries & reservations.

the daughter wanted to go to a nearby highland resort with some friends. dad relented, gave in & allowed her to go but felt uncomfortable with the daughter being in someone else's company. see the adults ferrying them there is a friend's friend's parents (yeah, its complicated like that). regardless its a day trip - the dad's twenty-one questions were like:
  • what car does the dad drive? (the daughter doesn't even know the friend's friend)
  • you know there are a lot of slopes there & its quite dangerous right?
  • do you really want to go?
  • can you promise to behave yourself?

he says he worries when she is out of her sight & if he worries, he can't golf well (uh, o.k.a.y). so i suggested that he can golf in the same resort. however, we would do our own thing & allow the kids to their own devices. and we'd make it an overnite trip instead. okay everybody agrees, is happy & i have to book the rooms. but now the girls (the daughter & her partner in chaos) doesn't want to hang out with friend & friend's friend; if the hubby & i are going along. well, no matter...

but then this morning the hubby suggests a beach resort pulak, say the highland place is boring lah & we just went there a couple of months back. so here i am while updating this rant space whilst surfing the net for available locations. and i just hate it that there is a 'click here for picture' & all you get is a picture of the bed up close. duh!!?? some people plan their holidays months ahead & here i am doing it like three days prior. so what do i get? sorry maam, we are fully booked...

sigh, planning for holidays are so stressful..... and the sniffles ain't helping much. ):
