WELL!


Vicky Ong so tall!
Here's a picture from the choir concert. SEC 1s! (in tribal costume, in dressing room) sorry, it's long overdue.

still can't believe I'm posting so much. Oh well,
TODAY WAS GREAT PEOPLE! thanks for getting me to come! Cycling was cool, Yolanda, and well, roller blading was dead tiring but thanks Nut for letting me anyway. Yah. Actually ah, how far did we go? About 1.5km? I dunno. It felt longer---when roller blading of course. I thought I was lost! Really!
Okay, let me explain. Got there at about 9.15. Went to Mac's and waited for Rachel Goh. Then we went to rent bicycles (3)and roller blades (2 pairs). oh, and the bikes were the double-rider type--they were pretty tough to maneuver and stuff, till we got the momentum. So, Nut and Esther on the 3rd double-bike were really slow. I don't have a clue what they were doing (okay, fine, mostly screaming). Then Belinda fell down after 5 min on her rollerblades, she scraped off a LOT of skin. Yup, it was bad. Ada (on the other pair of rollerblades, or RB) freaked out. All the motherly stuff she's good at. I like the way she makes the 'tsk tsk' sound. Anyway, we cleaned it up and carried on. Rachel G and Christine were up front, Yolanda n Me behind. The other 4 were messing aroung behind. Belinda fell again. Well, after awhile, Rach G (I'm shortening her name everytime I type it, sorry 'bout that), Christine, Yolanda and I were too far ahead, so we turned around. Met up with the rest about 500m away. Nut was RBing now. So we saw a dying ant hanging from a spider's web. It liked Rach G. It sort of dropped on her---and of course, the usual screaming. Then we took some pretty cool pictures of us jumping into the air. Like, IN the air--defying gravity man! haha. so well, we went back to where RG, C, Y and I u-turned, near the giant sandcastles. The others took more pics. I didn't really want to, so stayed back with Nut in the shed. Nut's feet were aching from the RB, so on the way back, I took over. And I got what she meant. The RBs were HUGE. GIGANTIC! GARGANTUAN! (and other big words). So my feet had to work hard to lift them, and I couldn't balance for awhile. RBed myself back. I thought everyone was ahead and that I was lost. Turns out Ada and Esther on a double-bike...well, it just don't work. They were pretty far behind. Got together, went to return the stuff. RELIEVED THE FEET! And went to subway for lunch. Well, we had to "ta bao" cause Yolanda's mum, who was giving us a lift to Parkway, was there already. So Y, Nut, Belinda and I went to parkway. And then Y and her mum left to "zou zou"---walkwalk. We ate lunch. I bought a nalgene bottle, that I hope will not break like my "virtually unbreakable" bottle. Yes, it said
"virtually unbreakable" on it's lable. Well, then the longggggggggggggg ride home.

Yup. GREAT day.
