[[]]

its a happy happy day! i went to sentosa! its weird how life is sometimes. the last time i went there with simin and deph we agreed that we must go back soon. and when was that?? march 2005! whereas this time, i didnt even plan to go there; it was just a last minute thing. haha.. anw su yi and i went cycling. and i'm proud to proclaim that we cycled around the whole of sentosa!! now my bum hurts like mad. we spent 1.5 hours on the lousey bike seat which is so bloody hard!

then we decided to stroll along the beach; let the cold seawater tickle our toes a bit, when i did the world most's stupidest thing ever!! i tossed my sandals onto the beach so that i could rub the grease stain off my calf. one moment later, my sandals were floating right before my eyes and being swept towards the open sea. in all madness, i grabbed at the space before me wildly and managed a firm grip on one sandal. the other one was happily bobbing up and down, drifting further and further away... i thought my heart was going to stop!!! those werent ordinary sandals. they were teva sandals. bloody expensive teva sandals. after staring at it helplessly for a minute or so, contemplating if i should just dive in after in and risk getting pulled away by undercurrents considering i'm such a "professional" swimmer and all, i was ready to throw in the towel and just leave it there, as momento to my visit to sentosa on this very day. but i'd just kill myself for blowing somemore moolah on two pairs on sandals. one lost and one new. so i scoured the beach for any likeness of a swimmer and hit jackpot at the other end of the beach. thank heavens for me, su yi managed to help me beg them and they were willing to help. i actually feel quite bad for having to drag them all the way over to where my sandal was. believe me the strech of beach is pretty long. i nearly jumped for joy when they fished my sandal out. thank the Lord for that!

on to the next point of our adventure. (guess what i did next jan!! we were just talking about it yst!) we went for the luge ride! though it wasnt as impressive as the one in NZ, its still good fun. and the chairlift was really nice, what with the scenery and gentle breeze and all. scary but nice. su yi went down so fast lah! i couldnt catch even a glimspe of her after a while.. all in all the $8 was quite well spent lah. since i was reminded of my time in NZ and all. memories like those are precious.. let's go there sometime soon jan! like after we start work and save up.. ooh i'm looking so forward to it!

and the monkeys we saw today! i'll never forget them. they're soooo cute!! mikki and sakura (if i didnt remember wrongly) haha. their butts are so red... and i'll never forgive sakae sushi for tricking us! those cunning people.. masquerading their food items on similar plates, only to turn the tables on us and proclaim that "oh, the red ones are $6.20 each". bahs. cheated us of about $10 all together. hrump. thankfully for them the food was not that bad lah. then again, just about anything tastes good when you're starving.

my arms hurt like mad now. though i dont feel sunburnt, my mum insists i am. "you look like your face got pressed by an iron." yeah, i suppose it does look rather bad.. at least my legs dont hurt as bad as suyi's who almost fell out of the bus. poor gal. and dont even get me started on how painful my bum is. all that cycling....

thanks for today gal! though it was quite naughty of you to pon work. hehheh. really enjoyed myself. and i think you're right. we always do stuff that's kinda romantic. our future boyfriends should be jealous. hahaha...

where is the him that i’m looking for… |10:35 pm|
