title: Ferry on fire ; Tioman
 I love this pics.. I love her hair.. her clothes.. her everything.. Errr.. except the pink background. >_<
Dear Xu Ping,
There will be no more late night movies, documentaries and hang out for you anymore. No more soccer matches in the mid night and early morning. That’s because school officially starts tomorrow. You have to sleep early (not after 1130pm) and get up early (not after 6.15am) to prepare for school. Please pay attention in class and no slacking. I hope you got the notices and please kindly carry out what the notices say. Thank you for the attention and have a ‘great wonderful interesting fun learning journey semester ‘ahead.
From Xu Ping.
(Oh gawd.. do I have to follow the rules???)
---- I wanted to end the post here.. But than suddenly.. I saw sth on the newspaper.
'Ferry catches fire off Tioman, fire so hot rescuers cant get near, 4 died'
When i read the heading i was like 'Aiya, so many ferries go form Mersing to Tioman' Then when i saw the photo of the ferry that the paper shown.. I was totally shock.
Thats the exactly same type of ferry that we took on March from Mersing to Tioman. OMG la..
Extract from the article:
'The blaze consumed the entire ferry cabin in just 30mins. The boat was full of holiday-makers heading for Tioman'
'Many of them probably had no time to put on lifejacket, 4 people drowned and 5 were injured'
'Passengers were panicking because they had to squeeze through the side cabin exits. There was only one on each side of the ferry and they were not very big'
'The lifeboats that were at the back of the ferry could not be used because they were on fire'
'One, who had been working at Tioman dive centre for 6 years say: "They are commonly referred to as floating coffins. Often passengers dont know where the lifejackets are" '
Hiaz..
I really felt luckly about it. Though is like long long ago...
But well, you never know whats gonna happen rite???
