Head of security, John said that we instantly became a target for certain groups the moment we became representatives for each of our countries.
And I didn't really take the weight of what he said until tonight's gala dinner. An assination almost took place. And had I not dodged in time, I would be toast.
But otherwise it was one of a kind.
People asking to take photographs, and just now when HK and I wanted to go to the toilet, the attendant ushered us to a minibus or something... the thing that drives you to the beaches in sentosa, just the two of us with a driver to the toilet, and the driver waited for us before driving us 400m back to the gala dinner. Haha we were in awe.

Alright... descriptions of the place...
The gym firstly is not that big. But the machines isolate damn well. Regualr dumbell range... smith machine... no barbells thoughs, but I don't use them anyway. There are 3 huge plasma screen tvs in the gym, one playstation, you can get games from them to play between sets lol. No gym attire enforced... but all the guys here wear track pants and singlet.... Treadmills and cycyling machines are operated via touchsreen and the moniors are always on.
Instructor to spot you at any time, and attendant to fetch you mineral water and towels.
The buffet spread is long. Ridiculously long. I didn't know where the hell I was supposed to go at first. All sorts of food, sushi, meat... rice, noodle, all sorts of pasta, or you can ask them to make it fresh. This morning there were three types of eggs... sunny side up, scrambled and I forgot what they called the other one.
Speaking of breakfast... omg, this morning I was like damn groggy and sleepy but at the breakfast tables the guys were like... all gelled/waxed hair and everything. I think Mr HK had makeup on? Like wtf?! Godamnit...
Some of the caucasians are HUGE. And the amount they eat is insane. I'm like the biggest among the asians though, but most of the caucasians are bigger, so that puts me in happy middle.

Overwhelming welcome at the airport. Flowers, cymbals, people everywhere.
But what matters is the buffet. Its like a brazils and all you can eat pastamania...
And our first otot iternary was to gather at the gym lol.
They give you mineral water and towers and help spot you. Instead of kao pei when you don't use towels.
Some of the guys here have like level 99 PR skills... its scary. Some are built like monsters. Some can't speak proper english. Dinner felt like something out of mortal kombat... the part with the grand feast. I just hope it doesn't all go to hell tomorrow.
