Feet Nibbling Fishes

Every Birthday party has a different flavour..for the six goddesses..Mellies was totally a new experience. after a nice scrumptious Chanpagne and Italian food lunch it was a surprise treat at sentosa..No one except Mich and Yvette knew what it was..Normally so far it was just the birthday girl who got a surprise but this time it was different..4 of us, Mellie (the birthday girl), Mel, Yinnie and me were in for a surprise..At Sentosa at the Underwater world ..no one really knew what it was till we saw the spa..ooh massage we all giggled..in we went with our Champagne bottles..and the friendly staff there helped us chill our bottles and allowed us to sit in the lobby/reception area and dunk down our bubblies..And then we were taken in..to a small shallow pool filled with small tiny fishes,,how cute we all thought till Yvette said okay lets sit with our feet inside the pool..really???can we do that?? and then as soon as the feet went it..these small fishes came in to nibble at the feet..dead skin!!! kinda gross..I was too terrified ( am not really the adventurous sort) Mel in her elements cried out to the fishes..meat fesh meat..!!! Yinnie and Mich had their feet in with Mich having a fishy footwear!!! ( gross yes again) Mellie and I still were gaping into the pool with experssions hard to put in words!!...Do we do that??? Legs still hanging a meter above the water...Great courage and there they went in.But as soon as the fishes came near to our feet..screaming we pulled them out!!!! Must say the people around were very patient..6 partly drunk screaming girls..anyways finally with a lot of encouragement from all around ,with great courage we did put our feet in again..It was kinda tingling sensation with the fishes biting... we sat there for about 15 minutes..Was a different experience..Though after this fishy ordeal the feet felt actually softer,shinier and nicer but I dont think i would ever go for it again...I am all for eco friendly things but for my next pedicure i would still fix up an appointment with the Pedicurist..No more fishy pedicures for me please!!!
