Mosquito hell!

After a pretty stressful and tiresome week, me and a few of the girls thought it would be an excellent idea to pamper ourselves at the weekend. We thought, Thursday night shopping in the posh mall (City Stars) since we'd just been paid; go home get changed and boogie at a local club; then chill on Friday at a posh hotel with some nibbles and giggles, maybe even get a we spa or pedicure or whatever! Sounds great eh??

Well....the shopping went well...bought lots of goodies :D but traffic on the way to the club caused a little frustration and the fact that we weren't that sure where the actual location was did not help matters! Not to worry...we changed venue and managed to fit in about an hour of dancing!
Next day...hit the pool at the beach and hat an epic night of girly chat on the balcony of our hotel room. Little did we realise that we left the balcony door wide open for hour with the lights on.....oh dear, i hear you say!

Yes, that's right, we killed over 60 (no exageration!) mosquitos in our room and thinking that we may have been successful in getting rid....we headed to bed for a nice early relaxing sleeping. Next thing we hear....zzzzzz...you know the sound i'm sure, of that really annoying mosquito that you can never seem to hit when you turn the light on to kill it. Grrrrrr!!!
After a few hours of absolute frustration we try to get help from the hotel staff which i say politely were completely useless!!! We finally end up changing rooms and sleep for a few hours. I of course wake up to find my eyelids swollen as though I have been beaten up. It was crazy, I'd never seen myself look like that before, my eyes wouldnt even open properly!!
After taking antihetimines and sleeping a little more and treating myself to a well deserved pedicure I felt slightly better and the swelling went down slightly leaving behind a lovely shade of pink. I still have the remaining mosquito bites over my arms and bum though (how random!)

Ah well...it is a funny story to remember (maybe not so funny at the time though!)...
