Part of my whole idea of my plan C to go downstairs to Formosa after midnight came from the same idea of you going to Newton and Pacific discotheque (I did a bit of modification). It is just that since I am in Formosa hotel,why would I travel further whereby just directly downstairs gives me better convenient.
That's of course if my objectives were just for the girls and that i do not like partying thru the night.

A few times in my last trip (March),i walked to your room trying to open your room door with my room key,hehehe...(yea,i am lucky not to be able to open your room door with my room key) I have said before some time ago that i could blindfolded myself and yet still be able to walk to "your" room. I guess I wasn't used to staying in other rooms afterall,hehehe... (already becoming a habit to walk to your room)

Lazy and yet least informed person will change their currency in Singapore before coming over to Batam.
Lazy but yet well-informed person will change their currency after they reach Batam ferry terminal.
The more intelligent person will change their currency around Batam building blocks where there are at a few money changer shops competing with one another.
The regular Batam goer will nest around their hotel area (or where they often stay) where they regularly stay for the best-rated money changer shop/s.
The least intelligent will be the one who ask where in Batam has the best rate,yet be staying far from it and later either walk a long way or take a taxi/ojek just to change their currency. A 'penis-wise' but a pound stupid.
Something i observed.
