I'm soooooooooooooooooo tired right now. But I must at least update a bit!!
The moment I got up this morning, I didn't feel like waking up at all man. Deep down inside I was like trying to convince myself to go back to sleep till afternoon then join Desmond for soci lecture. However, I had promised Amos to study with him the night b4 so bo pianz!! After spending some time struggling with myself, I finally dragged myself out of the bed at 8.30am!!!
Changed and washed-up and out of the house by 8.45am. Caught the 8.50 bus and managed to reach school exactly at 9am!! Hee hee! So great to live near school ya? Joined Synn Ying for lecture! First time I'm seating with her after knowing her for so long! She got so excited just by seeing my phone.. crazy girl!!
So went up to the student lounge after school with Amos to study... then there was this bunch of inconsiderate RMIT students who kept talking all the way very loudly. It was this girl especially!!! Her phone kept ringing non stop then make so much noise. Aiyoh.. She see pple studying should be considerate a bit mah... Kaoz... so in the end buay tahan liaoz, then we left for Sim Lim to buy CD-Rs!
So now I'm back and tired... Argh... tmr still have tournament at ginza! Wish me all the best man. If I win then can get $400 plus World of Warcraft Woot!! That's wat Gary told me la... I'm blur blur one... just let him call the shots then I just play my own game hee hee!
It feels good to have the wind in your face again!
Wooot!! IT's now 4pm and I just got up thanks to my sis's phone call!! I think if she didn't call me I would still be zzzing all the way man!! Check out the weather today!! Cool and rainy! The perfect weather to sleep!!! SO what did I do last nite huh? I got back to cycling again!!
Met up with Pangwei and Wayne last nite at Lau Pa Sat! Supposed to meet at 9pm but i left house only at 8.40pm hee hee! So i pia down by Pasir Panjang Road then reached there by 9.20pm loh... The feeling of going down the straight road it's so darn cool man! Cuz it's been so long since I last cycled! I think it was during the night cycling trip I had with the ODACsians last time.
Watched PW eat dunno wat! He's really a rubbish bin man!! He can wallop such a big plate of rice with only one small chicken piece loh... dunno how he can eat up all the rice!! Then we tot.... hmm... where to go next huh? Then since Eve was supposed to join us but couldn't in the end, so why don't we go visit her at her place? So we pia down to this place called ABC market!!
I dunno why we went all the way down to meet her... maybe SOMEONE wanted to see her? Hahahaha!! Anywayz, PW and I ate this red jelly thingy with longan and evaporated milk dessert. We were all so thirsty cuz the trip down was rather fast! PW siao one!! His bike so much heavier than mine yet he can go so fast... I admit defeat liaoz!! Then Wayne at the back seh seh liaoz. Wahahaha!! We chatted till like 1am? Hahaha the four of us always chatting about the same stuff one leh!! Eve's bf criteria always popped up!! And if u ever have a chance, ask Eve to show you how she looked liked in Secondary School... She really put in a lot of effort to get where she is now today sia... You have to see it to believe it!! Then we "walked" Eve home! Next destination for the night, Mt Faber!!!
Actually, we planned to go Labrador Park, but Mt Faber came up first so we went up lohz!! The climb up was madness man... That was like the 2nd time I went up Mt Faber on a bike! PW and I made it to the top but Wayne had to push his bike up halfway cuz it was REALLY REALLY TIRING!! Legs all jelly by the time we reached the top!! Great view up there I must say!! Most of the way all couples one loh... so romantic! Hee hee!!
Arghh! Hungry liaoz!! Hmm... Where to go eat huh? Geylang!! So down down down we went!!! The ride down was sooooooo thrilling!! The speed was crazy!! I was like going down the slope at 42km/h!!! And PW even had his hands off the bar!! He's a crazy nut man!! I wouldn't ever dare pull a stunt like that!! I love downslopes!! I think that was the thrill of the night!!
When we reached Geylang, my legs really like jelly liaoz!! Then we couldn't find the Beef Kway Teow store!!! When we finally found it, it was closed loh!! Then bo pianz, eat the frog leg porridge!! HMm... I think that it was not very fantastic, although the frog legs were really good! Nothing special about the entire thingy so it was rather expensive!! $8 for one bowl... hmm... not worth it loh!! So went to eat tau hwee ah... how to spell ar? Then suddenly RAIN!! So we chatted till like 5am then it was finally time to go! Cuz I was kinda seh liaoz, then thinking of the route I had to take back all the way... Wahhhhhhhhhhhh!!! Sianz Ze bua...
Said bye bye at Geylang then I cycled at like 25km/h all the way down to Jalan Bukit Merah then no strength liaoz...Reached Jalan Bukit Merah in 30mins... but after that I realised why I cycle so fast for what... not competition mah.... hahaha then I slowly cycle loh...so reached home finally at 6am in the morning! I wanted to blog but was too seh to do anything liaoz! No one online!! So boring!! Hah! Sleep time!!!
Had a very wonderful sleep hee hee! Except for a sms that disturbed me!! Now gotta get ready then time to do sociology liaoz!!! See you guys in school!! =p

Met up with Nat, SL, Eve, PW, Ave, Des, Shihui, Wayne, Weiling, Dean and Qing Yang(extra friend who came from NTU to crash) for lunch at megabites on Monday! So many pple meeting up so no space loh... so i bo pianz fall back then end up eating with Adeline and Annie! So real sorry to them for pang sehing them hee hee!!

Tuesday... Desmond talked to me... I heared what he had to say and I was so sadz... didn't know what he was talking abt...then he also dun wanna tell me some stuff... to me, it's like brothers got no secrets one mah... then when he held back something, i couldn't really take it anywayz.... so after the break my mind kept thinkin abt one thing only... my hopes had been dashed. So I was like all sad and stuff... went for my final driving lesson with a dark cloud hanging over my head... I was like totally sad the entire day, and that nite, Qing Yang called me up then cheered me up a little! So thanks to Qing Yang for talking to me that day!!
Spent Tuesday nite doing my IBM assignment, so hopefully it all goes well!!
Wednesday! Spent the whole day sleeping and dreaming lehz... Hee hee!!! Then finally woke up at like 3pm then realised I had yet to have my lunch so went down to Macs for a bite!! Tried the quarter-pounder then realised that the big-mac is nicer loh... so if u ever wanna eat that, don't!! So wed went zoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom! Then it was gone!!
However, that nite I had some of my questions answered! Hee hee! Luckily I stayed online till like 12am... I was like going to sleep liaoz... So that nite I was pretty happy!! Yeaahhhh!!

Anyway, i like the above quote cuz I think it applies to most things in life! So keep that in mind!!
Phew!! I'm finally back from the SIM Extreme Challenge and boy was it an amazing one!!! The pics are all below so enjoy ya?
I'm extremely tired after the race. This was a very good one with lots of ups and downs and huge excitement! Especially towards the end! So let's start the ball rolling!!
Friday 191104 5.30pm
Flag off from SIM HQ! Had to down a can of red bull before we could get the first clue! It was to find a car located somewhere on the campus! We finally found the car and next clue was: Rock Room in NUS!
Had to climb this rock wall and soooooo blardy tough loh!!! Really really hard! I climb until my arms shaking!! So we finally got the clue and we got some funny clue with numbers on it! Managed to decipher it after like 5mins when off to Woodlands we went!!
At woodlands we had difficulty finding the checkpoint cuz it was at some dark and ulu place loh!! Then Gene and Theo were there! Had to gather like 10 5-cent coins, 5 branches of the same length, 20 bouganvilla flowers, 5 bus tix, 20 serviettes and a size 11 sandal!! So we all ran off in different directions looking for them!! All gathered back in 5mins and we had to sing a christmas carol for Theo! Then off we ran!
Next checkpoint: Taman Jurong Super Bowl! Had to built a structure of sticks and masking tape to the height of Aizah's shoulder! YC came up with a strat then with luck, we managed to built it fast fast! And it could actually stand wahaha! So we're lucky!! Then had to find a girl somewhere in the building with a watch! Desmond found her fast fast too then off to the next place!!
Jurong Hill Top Restaurant! Took bus to Boon Lay then met up with Shihui's team! We were so happy to have caught up to 3rd placing!!! Wooo!! So we took the bus together to Jurong Bird Park then when we reached there we realised that there were like 3 teams there already!!! Arghh!! So have to pia again!! Had to take photos from the top and that silly pic where u see the 5 of us lying on the floor came from there!!
Next location: Kent Ridge Park! This time with Pangwei's group we took bus together and completed the tasks together! This one easy easy lah! Make the joss stick burn finish then can go! Basically they were like giving us a break but it was too long!! And by the time we finished the task there was no more public transpot!!
So how? Walk lah!! Next place: Adam Road Food Center!! Finally reached there, forget the time liaoz... Legs all shagged out. Then met up with Guan Heng for the next clue and some food! This was basically a rest stop cuz we had more walking to do!! After 2 bowls of Xia Mian we like 30mins of rest we started our walk to Mac Ritchie Reservoir!!
Task at Mac Ritchie: Seperate the green/red beans from a bag!! So we pia!!! Finished the task in 10mins then we had to drink down a bottle of celery juice!!! It was here that I found out Nat can drink almost everything loh... Regardless of how bad it tasted Nat can just drink it all down!!
Next place: Chomp Chomp at Serangoon Gardens! Mode of Transpot: Our legs Weather: Heavy Rain Time taken to reach: 2hours How it felt along the way: My legs were actually sore from walking such a long distance in the rain! The heavy rain slowed us down a lot and it was so freakin' cold!! How it felt after the walk: I was freezing!! My mind shagged out, couldn't think.
The rest at Chomp Chomp was meant for us to rest since the buses were not yet avaliable and walking to Serangoon MRT in the rain would do us no good! So we found a nice cosy spot outside one of those closed kopitiams then slept there till the buses were avaliable! When I got up, my contact lens was like going to pop out of my eye cuz too dry! Heng never drop out if not "gg" liaoz!!
Next Location: Harbour Front! Breakfast and some rest there!! Slept on the tables at the food center! I really fell alseep for a while.
Saturday 201104 8.45am
Time for a shuttle bus ride to Sentosa! Reached there had to swim, find ping pong balls in a huge sand box( this one killed all the teams cuz it's just so hard to find those darn balls!), wear pampers, and drink half a bottle of lemon juice! Thank goodness had Nat to drink man! If I had drank it, I would've puked man.
Swim and ran kinda shag man... First time I swim and run together loh... After those games we played my body seh seh liaoz. Then took a nice shower! Wahaha! Cuz we had so much time to kill!! Came out all clean again!! yeah!! Then the beach was such a nice place to chat. Nice breeze, nice scenery, great company!!
12.45pm Finally left Sentosa! Next location: Marine Parade Library Starbucks! This clue was the toughest in the race, 3 words only.
Fly 2 BK Got it yet?
Changi Airport Terminal 2 Burger King lah! Hahaha!
So we were told that we could still catch up and our spirits were lifted again! Caught a bus to the Airport and met Rae there with the next clue: The Sore Thumb of East Coast Park
We were told that the time lapse between the first team and us were like 20mins? So from a huge gap of 45mins, we managed to cut down 20mins!
Ran down to the bus stop again waiting for the 36 to bring us to ECP! I fell asleep on the bus then next thing I know I was woken up and then we were running down the bus! I was in a total daze loh.
Bedok Jetty!! Run run run!! Run until shag liaoz then while we finally reached the end, saw Gene and had to find another piece of paper along the jetty. Thanks to some passerbys, they told us where the paper was and we manged to find it after like 10mins! Oh yah! When we were running down the jetty, Shihui's team was running out liaoz! So were like omg!! We caught up with them!! So all the more motivation we had!!
Next clue: Costa Sands bench
Decision: Borrow bikes
Desmond and I ran all the way to the bike shop so that we could borrow bikes for the girls! Reached there all shagged out!! Then we pedalled fast fast to the bench before we realised, that was the end of the race liaoz.
I was like DUH!! How can end so fast?? I expected like more clues so we could have a higher chance of catching up!! So that was the end of the race!! Pangwei's team won! Congrats to them!!
Since we borrowed the bikes then still have like 1.5hours to go, we decided to go for a ride loh. Hahaha! Nat and I was using the tandem bike! So it was rather thrilling to make her scared wahaha!!
We had a nice chat at the beach at a bench! I'm really happy for us!!! And I'm really proud of Shilei and Natalie for doing so well! We worked well as a team, completed the entire race as a team. No quarrels, no disputes! The important thing was that we didn't give up even though we were last!!! Everything is possible! And we accomplished our goal: TO HAVE FUN!!
So here we are, all still in one piece! Our frienship has just grown closer and I hope it'll stay that way from time to come...
Haven't been updating for a little while, soooo busy every nite ya? Wahaha! Dunno what I'm doing also! Definitely not much studying!
So my right arm is aching due to the badminton game I had on Wednesday!! I was rather surprised to be invited for a badminton game by Damian! It was really great to hang out with some new peeps! So played badminton with him, Annie, Yulia and Rachel! Rachel is this girl whom went for the nite cycling from group 2 one... Thanks to her I got evicted to group 4! But I'm not regretting anyway! Hahaha!
Ok, note to self: Must learn how to play badminton properly to prevent my arm from aching in the future!
So Wed breezed past like dat... no work done yet again... Sianz!!!
Met up with my teamates for lunch today at Mega then only managed to confirm some stuff after Yu Zhong left...oh well... nvm still cool. Then Pangwei's team joined us for a little while then they zao liao.
SL and Nat heard the music then rushed down to the atrium to see the dance act but by the time we got down it was over liaoz. They they realised that the dance was the same as the one they did they day before! Wahaha!! Then went to shop shop look look.
The sunglasses that SL wanted to buy not good leh.. so in the end after trying like a dozen times(including the day b4), she didn't buy it. Reason? Left 2 pieces and one of them was crooked loh... then the nose bridge thingy not adjustable so cannot really rest well on her nose bridge so wat's the point if it's uncomfortable ya?
Went to look at those ceramic necklace thingy then Pangwei and SL both bought one each. $5 for one leh... a bit ex i feel... oh well... i dun think i look good in such stuff so dun buy loh...anywayz most of the time i buy liaoz, wear for a few weeks then get bored of it and throw it somewhere on the table, never touching it again!
Made lotsa useless phonecalls but I must really thank all my friends for being so supportive of me!! Haiz... still make me think so much just now kaoz... I tot we're stuck and I had to do so much. Oh well, glad that's over so dun have to think abt it liaoz.
Anyway I'm off to bed liaoz! Tmr got my advanced theory test should be no kick lah! Feeling sianz leh...dun feel like going for the lesson after that cuz got amazing race... so need lotsa rest tonite!!
I don't know wat's wrong, neither can I feel ur pain. The reason is simple, by reading ur blog I can't feel much from it cuz I don't know wat exactly happened. And I was bz studying just now for my advanced theory and I don't wanna fail. I know you're sick and all but what do u want me to do... You wanna treat me so coldly then expect me to care at the same time I can't... Whatever it is that you're going thru, just wanna let you know that I'll be here for you when you need me ya?
Wow, another long day and tiring day today!! Slept at 1am the nite before and woke up at 7am again! It seems my biological clock is set permanently at 7am in the morning!! So wat did I do today you're asking?
RUN LOHZ!! So I got up early today just to go all the way to Kallang to run k? See how much I sacrifice man!! Live in the west go to the east to run!! As usual, we waited for the usual people, then by the time start runnin was like 10am? Hahaha! I lost track liaoz cuz I was going soooooooooooo slow! Hee hee!! No lah, Team Integrity k?
Today got to know them better again! Hmm... everything seems to be going smoothly so I don't want anything to go wrong at this point of time! I enjoy their company greatly and I hope this friendship can last!! I'm already like thinking how we can spend Christmas together liaoz hee hee!!
After the light jog, we went down to Suntec for lunch and boy was I hungry man... I whacked my duck rice super fast lohz...Then I was soo thirsty then went off to buy Cheng Teng for dessert!! Seeing how good my Cheng Teng looked, all of them bought one too hahaha! Yum yum! It was really a thirst quencher man!!
Walk walk at Carrefour then this SL damn zai... the last I heard from her was:" EH! Ice creaM! Looks so nice!" Then next thing we know she went missing!! So PW, Nat and myself went back to look for her cuz we were in the fruits section then upon searching for her, we couldn't find her!
Nat then realised that oh! She must have went to the VCD section to look at the latest VCDs! And sure enuf when we went up she was there browsing loh!! She can just dissapear like that and she didn't tell anyone!! We were like contemplating whether or not to go to the customer service and ask them to page for a little girl named SL in a white singlet and TPJC shorts hee hee!!
So we walk walk walk then next thing we know it's like 3pm liaoz loh!! Hee hee! Soooo late liaoz! Time to go home study!!
But along the way home, decided that I was feeling kinda confused? Oh well... I still am at this point of time!
My family came back from Australia today! And the first thing they said when they saw me was : " WAH SO DARK!!! LIKE INDIAN!!" I guess they haven't met Pangwei yet.
Hee hee today spent half the day in the sun so u can expect me to be darker yet again... Went to Escape Theme Park today with Pangwei, Nat, Shilei and Eve!! Woo woo!!
First time I'm going there since the park opened! So i'm like kinda sua ku ya?
We were discussing the nite b4 and like we said we were going to play from 10am to 10pm. I was like "SIAO AH?" But eventually, we DID play from 10am to 10pm loh!! CRAzy ritez? We like sat on ALL the rides in the park except those that were down, mainly the inverter. Dunno wat that ride is all abt but SL said it's not that scary! So yeah! who cares ritez? It's the company that counts!!
When we first reached, we decided to try this ride that like spins round and tosses u back and forth. I sat this ride with Nat and she was like screaming for her dear life wahaha! I was practically laughing through out the ride wahaha!! So farny!! SL and Eve also laughing at her! Hahaha the way she takes rides it's really hilarious so if u have a chance, must try riding some challenging rides cuz she'll surely put a smile to ur face!!
SL and Eve were like totally not scared of any of the rides loh... The only one SL was kinda scared was this ride named Panasonic. But we only got to seat it once cuz after that the ride was under maintainence!! Kaoz!! Super sianz!!
My all time favorite was the Go-Kart loh!! So fun!! I actually get to drive fast fast on a track lohz!! Then can race like dat so darn fun!!! Pangwei is a mad driver man!! And Nat is a total scary driver loh!! Cuz one of the rides must pair up one then I let Nat drive since she was like soooooooooooo gian then next thing I knew, my life was in her hands!! Like every turn I had to cover my eyes in case we crash loh!! Yes! She's that bad!!
*Ssssh... if u read this dun tell her I wrote this*
The wet and wild ride was fun too hee hee then we can take wacky poses on the camera!! Sooooo COol loh!! Then weird stuff started to happen when Eve and I took the rides together! First was when we started to climb up the taller downslope then suddenly the power for the wet and wild ride stopped!!! So Eve and I were like stuck on the way up!! Thankfully, we were quite near the bottom of the upslope so still can climb down hee hee hee!!
Then next thing was the first ride we took. Forgot wat name liaoz cuz I didn't notice... But we ended up sitting together yet again, and then the ride barely started then some problem occured then the ride had to be restarted!! Arghhh!!!! Lame loh.. then the rest came down after the ride then blame ME again lohz!! Hahaha everything seems to be my fault horz? Kekeke!! So Eve and I decided we cannot sit together for the remainin rides then to our surprise, there were no more problems!! So could it really be cuz we were sitting together? Hahaha dunno lah!! All so coincedental.
I seriously can't believe how we could spent the entire day together!!! Anyway those pics below were taken on the bus ride before and after the fun we had! These girls seriously kick ass man! Wahaha... Then still make me tell story... so Nat and Eve knows now huh... Whatever was said in the Ferris Wheel stays in the Ferris Wheel ya? Kekeke!
Anyway, I'm totally shagged out now man... Need to rest liaoz... My body wanna collapse liaoz... So i'll sign out now and see u guys on monday ya?
The moment I woke up this morning I knew that it was going to be a good day.
The first thing I did when I got up was to switch on the radio and the song She will be Loved was playing on the radio!! A wonderful start to the morning I must say! I prayed last nite that the weather today would be perfect and I asked God for a wonderful day and boy did He give it to me! The weather: Perfecto!
So here we are at East Coast Park again! This time we're here for a kayaking trip!! Met up with Shilei, Natalie, Yu Zhong, Desmond, Nixon and Pangwei at Big Splash!! We intended to run in the morning but since the weather was so irresistable and we didn't know how long the good weather would last, we decided to just kayak first and see how later!
The trip went rather well I must say we basically just had fun playing around with the kayaks cuz it has been so long since we last played in the sea water!! OMG!! So fun to be kayaking in the sea again!! We intended to kayak till Gay Beach but due to the great body that Pangwei has, we decided that it would be rather dangerous if he went there!! Wahaha!! So we beached before the beach and played in the water and talked crap as usual!!
I feel so comfortable with this group and the feeling is really good with the people i'm with! There are no barriers whatsoever and everyone is so friendly to every other person!! I hope then I can further build this relationship up with this gang I'm with now! Play play play in the water then we went back to Paddle Culture!
I was duped into going near the guys and all them held on to my kayak and capsized me loh!!!! Kaoz..... Then I had to tow my kayak back all the way to the shore!!! Crapz pple!! But anyway, quite near to the shore lah so still ok!! Then once I emptied my kayak and parked it on the shore it was time for me to make some people capsize!! Hee hee hee!! Had lotsa fun in the water but wished we had more time!! Due to the high cost, we had to finish up by 1.30pm and return the kayaks!
Lunch was at Parkway Parade once again and this time we went to Fish & Co!! Hmm... the last time I went there was with the ODAC exco and I didn't get to eat my fav seafood platter the last time so this time I made sure I got to have it!! And they had my favorite soup: Clam Chowder!!! OMG!! It's my all time favorite soup man!!
Then Melvin called me up during lunch and I was kinda shocked to hear from him after so long!! He was my CQ course mate during Army and he's still serving since he's a regular! So it was great chatting with him and catching up a little!! Hmm... promised to meet up with him for a talk cock session so I must make sure I keep my promise to him.
Okiez! After lunch all of us were practically shagged out and we were just sitting at Spinelli stoning loh... Yu Zhong and Pangwei were like falling asleep loh haha so in the end we all zaoed the place by 4pm!
I totally enjoyed my day today and I can't wait till Saturday when I'll be hanging out with them again hee hee!! So fun to be with them I must say then can tease Nat all the time! Kakaka!! But she's getting smarter now... she even knows my tricks liaoz so time to change some of my tricks kekeke!!
Ok my body is not functioning so well liaoz... Eye lids closing... Need to sleep... tmr still have stats lect in the morning so off to bed I shall go!
Phew! Just got back from a run with Bro! Dunno why today he so siao on today!! Ran 5km... this time timing slightly better lohz... but had a slight stitch(is this how you spell it?)! So ran slower loh...
Went "training" with my teamates today!! Today get to see Nat and SL swim... Nat still can SL can't. But it's good we know each other's weaknesses! So we'll be prepared in the future!! Yu Zhong did well today he kept on swimming non stop so i'm sure he can make it one loh! Now just see how Jez fares!
Today swam a total of 35 laps!! First time lohz... So kind of an achievement for me!! Hooray!!
Dinner with Yu Zhong, Pangwei and Bro!! My favorite half - chicken rice hee hee!! Then went for guy's talk cock session at the tang yuan place! I full till cannot eat lohz...then YZ and PW still can eat lohz...siao on sia... So we realised all 4 of us are nice guys but no girlfriends!! How? Hahaha!
Oh man.. my eye lids closing liaoz and it's only 11pm... Ok I shall update you guys another time then!
Kaoz! I'm going to RANT today!! So pissed when I reached school!!
Today was tent washing day. Knowin' that ODAC has a habit of being late, I decided to take my time today. What's the point of being early if they're always late... So there are like 22 people in the entire group so missing me in action shouldn't be that bad yeah? So I planned to reach school by 10.30am!!
However, breakfast took longer that expected cuz the queues were all very long loh!! So paiseh to the people who were waiting. I was really scared that they were going to kill me since I only reached school at 10.50am.
Thinking of what reason I was going to give, Amos and myself walked over to the school cafeteria... And guess what??? 5 miserable people only. Yu Zhong, James Ng, Desmond, Amos and myself. WTF???????!!!!!! You call this tent washing ah??? Out of 22 people, 5 people wash.. Kaoz.. Sianz loh... I dun mind if everyone comes down and help like maybe 10 people wash understandable loh... but 5??? It's not that we can't handle it... It's about responsibility.
This is a serious problem... If people are only willing to go for the trip and not wash the equipment, then the poor Log I/C will have lotsa problems and the person taking over him next time will suffer a lot loh... Looking at the poor attendance today, I realise that if everyone can give a reason for not coming, why am I still here? Why did Amos come when it's his gf's bday today? Why did Desmond come? We didn't arrange to meet at all FYI!!! It just goes to show who the responsible people are. Although we complained about it, we still turned up cuz we are responsible for the equipment we use and it's only right that we clean them and return them.
I'm totally dissapointed with how shallow people can be... Sighz... Pissed off.
Went down to town with Bro after the washing session!! His Fossil watch spoil liaoz so need to repair... then the lady said Wednesday then can get back loh... So we go walk walk then see the Quiksilver and Ripcurl shop @ Pacific Plaza! Wah I saw a pair of nice board shorts and berms and t-shirt loh.... So tempting but cannot anyhow spend lah... my mom will kill me!!! So we both resisted the temptation and went over for lunch at Sushi Teh!! The set lunch offer is simply amazing loh!! Very worth it so must go check it out ya? 4 set meals for the price of 3 so if you go must go in multiples of 4 hee hee!! Don't say I never warn you first hor! Their set dinner also very worth it!!! Great lunch!!!
Went to shop shop after lunch then I saw this pair of Oakleys!! I needed a pair of sunglasses anyway so I went to try lohz... Then find one of them not bad sia... so tempting... But needed more time to think first so walked over to Paragon for a drink @ Starbucks!! Then we saw Annie standing and looking around. She actually looked over in our direction but she didn't see us. It wasn't until she was like very near us then she noticed us!! Annie looked very different today!! She looked good!! Must be the hair lah... Hahaha!! So said hi to Adeline and their poly friend! Chatted a bit about ODAC stuff and the wat has been happenings!!
4pm liaoz!! Oh no!! Going to be late!! I decided to buy the Oakleys! Rushed off to DFS opposite Far East to look for my Oakleys cuz the sales person at the shop I wanted to buy from not very nice... We walked all over the place loh... Went up to the 4th floor then realise that it was sold on the 2nd floor... Sianz... There the range very wide!! But cannot find the one I wanted so bo pianz!!! Then walked back to Far East then after further consideration then I bought it!!
My new sunglasses
I've finally got myself a pair of sunglasses!!! Wooooooo!! Cost: $342 Wallet: $0
So now I'm broke... Someone please support me until next month??
Wow wee!! I totally enjoyed myself today!! Spent an entire day with friends whom I wanna get to know better!!! So it's soooo cool!!
As you guys all know, the Amazing Race is coming up so my team has decided to start training!! So our schedule today was to run in the nice breeze at East Coast Park!! Although Yu Zhong and myself live helluva far from ECP, we made an effort to go down there to meet the girls since they live nearby!! So we arranged to meet at the bustop after Katong Shopping Centre and walk over!!
Arranged time of meeting: 8.30am Time Yu Zhong and myself reached: 8.30am Time Natalie reached: 9.00am Time Shi Lei reached: 9.15am
Conclusion: The nearer you live to the point where you're supposed to meet the later you'll be!!
So now we know who owes us all a treat ritez?
Hahaha! Okiez, so we proceeded on to ECP and deposited our bags @ Paddle Culture! It costs $1 per locker so next time if you need a place to keep your bag you know where to go now!!
Started warming up along the path when we saw this indian guy wearing a cap walking towards us with 2 guys around him. He looked kinda familiar so SL was like totally staring at the guy loh... Then suddenly she realised that OMG OMG OMG!! It was the President!!! S R Nathan!! One of the bodyguards kept staring over at us while they were walking past us!! Sooooo KEWL ritez? Got to see the President in person!! Hee hee!!
After that wee bit of excitement we started the jog!! Nat and YC in the front, SL and myself at the back. I was basically running with SL all the way and keeping her entertained so that she would not give up!! Considering she hasn't ran for over a year, she's not bad lah!! Hahaha!! Cannot say too much wait she read my blog then I die!! Sssh... dun tell her hor!!
I lost track of the time and distance but we did some "exercises" at one of those exercise stations along the running path! Not bad lah, SL still can do sit ups wahahaha!! Anyway, must say that I didn't know Nat is so fit man... Ms Talented is not only pretty but fit too!! Really admire her! So we got to know each other slightly better from this running session, not too shabby!
Taught Nat how to cycle after the run but I guess I'm not as good as I think I am cuz I didn't manage to get her to cycle straight. Sighz... Me fail as a teacher liaoz... Bleh!! Nvm, I'm sure she'll succeed the next time!! But as SL was saying, when you get older, it gets harder to learn new stuff!! So must always learn when you're young!!
So while Nat was busy learning how to cycle, SL went to rent a pair of rollerblades to practise her rollerblading!! But she's so shaky loh wahahaha! But after some practise she managed to blade smoothly!! So good for her ya? Cannot run but at least can blade!
By 2pm we were all hungry people lohz... So we returned all the stuff and changed into a set of clean dry clothes! And off to lunch we went!! Walked over to Parkway Parade and boy has this place changed!! I remember I used to go there for lunch when I was in primary school after church on Sundays and there used to be lotsa small shops at the basement and the entire place smelled of food! But now the place is totally different! It's like a shopping mall in town!! So many shops, restaurants and even Starbucks and the Pacific Coffee place!!
Chatted with them from 3pm till like 5pm then realised wah so late liaoz ah!! SL as usual sleepy pig one... Then she say tired wanna go home sleep!! And watch her drama serials!! I guess the moment she reached home she went to sleep loh... And the thing is that she woke up the latest among us loh...She's too pro liaoz!
Reached home and so lonely... so I went to buy my fav seasoned octopus from NTUC then reach home and rot all by myself!! ARghhhh... why no one tell me next week is holiday.... Grrrrr...
Received a call from Pangwei at 8.30pm saying he wanted to pass me the tent so tmr can go wash! I live so far from him leh... then I asked him to contact SL since she lives nearer but he couldn't get thru her cuz our dear friend was sleeping!!! Only when I met up with Pangwei at 10pm then she smsed him!! Hahaha!! So had a great chat with Pangwei till he had to catch the last train home... He looked damn shag man... Go for Kayaking Star 1 Instructor Course AND Dragon Boat Training on the same day!! And he has to do it tmr too!! Crazy guy man!!
So that's it for my day! Got to know these few friends better! I wanna start making good friends around and find my real friends ya?
Today is Lexin's 22nd Birthday!! She's the girl in red!! Hahaha! We went to this place at Holland V called irresistable brew or something like dat... not very memorable since the food wasn't fantastic. I had foccacia bread with some cheese and mushroom thingy and the rest ate honey mustard chicken. I guess the serving was a bit small so I'm not exactly filled... But since I'm still down with a sore throat and cough I could only eat the bread loh...
Anywayz, here's a pic of us at Haagen Dazs after dinner!! My JC Classmates!!
There's this flavour called Caramel Cone Explosion!! It's like soooooo NICE!! I'm in love with that flavour from now on!! It has been like ages since I had such yummy ice cream!!
Today super tired ... And I was like super blur the whole day lohz... went for lecture in the afternoon and I forgot to bring my notes even though I already prepared the notes to pack into my bag!!! How blur could I be?
So in the end went for lunch with Jarrod and gang then waited till Bro came before I entered lecture with him during the break! The maths test today was horrible since I didnt' have enough time to prepare for it and I was menatally tired... so bo pianz...
Oh yah, gave out like 9 Cds today of the pics! Hope everyone is happy k? Dun say I'm slow since I'm very efficient one horz! Amazing race I still dunno how... now Eve having problems lehz... dunno whether she can take part or not... so we'll see how everything goes... Best is if she can make it loh! Sighz...
Ok i'm really going to collapse soon so I better be off to bed!! And my leg is itching like hell lohz... dunno why... everytime come back from trip sure itch one!
Alrighty! Here I am back from Berkelah Falls in one piece!! Wow!!! What a trip I had!! It was filled with danger and excitement!!
DAY ONE
Met up at Kranji @ 7pm! Haha! I wasn't late this time, in fact, I was the 2nd person to arrive there together with Amos!! I'm normally like 30mins late one loh but this time I proved everyone wrong!! The first to reach was Li Chin who actually came from school and was having her dinner on the floor... so sadz!!
Grace was the 3rd to arrive then after that the rest came liaoz so by 8pm we managed to set off from Kranji! Anywayz, cleared customs and reached Larkin by 11pm so we had enough time for a short meal and Macs before taking the 6 hour long bus ride to Berkelah.
I couldn't sleep much on the bus at all cuz it was freakin' cold!!! My legs were like super cold and it wasn't until the air con was off that I managed to sleep an hour or so before we reached a kopitiam for morning breakfast!! After a nice meal of yong tau foo, it was a 30min ride to the base of the falls and then the long hike up began!!
DAY TWO
Lotsa danger along the way cuz of the slippery rocks and we had to use ropes for the river crossings as well as some higher difficulty slopes! Thank God for the ropes if not most of us wouldn't have made it!! That's how tough it was!!
It was a 2.5hr hike up from the base to our base camp which is like almost halfway up to the falls. Upon setting up our tents and the shelter, it began to rain... All our hopes of going up to the waterfall was dashed!! When the rain stopped, Jarrod and Xuan went up to recee for the rest of us to see whether we could all make it up safely but to our dismay, we couldn't. Firstly, there wasn't enough time and secondly it was too slippery due to the rain.
Since bo pianz, cook dinner loh!! We got to taste Jarrod's cooking once again and I bet it was good cuz I could see the look on everyone's faces!! But too bad for me I couldn't taste it cuz I was down with flu and hence my taste buds all gone leh... Anyway we had chicken with lotus root soup, prawns, fried rice, chicken, kailan and longan for dessert! Cool dinner horz? Hee hee~
Rae made some tea for us and it helped ease the irritation in my throat. By 11pm we all sianz liaoz nothing to do. We took all the pics we could and ate all the food we could eat! Marshmellows make good supper i would say! However too sweet liaoz!!! Now I must cut down on my sugar supply for the next few days if not sure kena diabetes one!! They even took out the canned peaches and dipped it in hot chocolate!!! SINFUL!!
Slept in a 6 man tent with Pangwei, Jarrod and Sharon Ong. And guess who snored? SHARON ONG!! Hahaha! Actually I also don't know cuz I was sleeping like a log... But according to Jarrod and Pangwei she did make some funny noises while she sleeps! Hahaha!!
DAY THREE
Got up at 7am in the morning and Jarrod made breakfast!! Nice pancakes and rosti. Feeling much better today!! We left our camp at 8.45am in the morning and proceeded to finish our climb up the falls!
A very treacherous climb indeed I must say. There were many points in time where I could've slipped and fell into the river! Due to the heavy rain the day before, the moss on the rocks were wet and slippery so every step that I took I needed to find a steady footing and handhold before I proceeded on!
After an hour and a half climb up we realised that there wasn't enough time left to climb all the way up so we stopped at one of the smaller falls along the way and played in the water there!! But after a while, we needed to make our trip down to base camp to pack up our stuff as the bus was waiting for us at the bottom. Bro hurt his back while we were playing cuz he was swept down by the river and the rocks hit his back... Hope he's feeling better today!
Sadly, and fairly dissapointed we made our way down with a sense of unsatisfaction since we did not see the big falls! Oh well! Due to time constraints we made our way down. Everything went smoothly from there on although we were behind time by an hour and a half! We arrranged to be at the bus at 1pm but ended up we reached there at 2.30pm!! We took a quick shower at the base of the falls and changed into some clean dry clothes!! Phew! Finally in some comfortable attire!!
Went for a sumptious meal of seafood in JB again and this time I felt that the meal was much nicer!! Jarrod knows what stuff to order hee hee!! So everything that came was real good especially the crayfish!! OMG!! I totally enjoyed it!!
Overall, I enjoyed the trip and the company I had!! All the odac peeps were so nice to me when they knew I was sick! So thanks to ALL of them especially Aveline, Xuan, Rae, Pangwei, Jarrod, Shilei and Sharon who showed care and concern!!
Alrighty! Finally done with this entry!! The pics will be up shortly on the net for u guys to view takes some time to upload ya? So chill out hee hee!! Time to prepare for school! Later on still have maths test... sianz!!
Oh yah today is Lexin's birthday!! Going to holland v to celebrate later!! Can't wait to meet up with them and share stories again!
