Beach Bums
Monday, February 27, 2006
Well, yesterday we went sentosa... me, sy, dan, jp, bc, yh, and qiang... even though he left pretty early. We went to the beach 1st. Slacked a lot before everyone eventually stripped and went swimming...more like wading for most. Jp and dan rented the kayak and sy and yh swam out to try and capsize them. Yh swam a lot faster than sy even though the latter 'trains' i think like 3 times a week. But the kayak just evaded them. Yh and sy came back to shore tired and unbalanced. I hated the underwater floor cause it was smushy like a thousand dead jellyfish and had a lot of nets and seaweed. Then i was persuaded a lot to go try the kayak and its so not a big deal. I mean it was tiring paddling and the ride was totally not exciting... unlike my memorable jet ski ride in indonesia like 2 years ago... that was awesome and the jetski even flew in mid air for a few seconds cause i like rammed a big wave head on. Even the instructor behind me thought that was cool. Anyways... sy ended up giving the rest the personality quiz thing... turns out bc's sex drive is like a 1 out of 10. heheh. Then while sy and yh went to the changing room to shower and wat not... they took a really long time. I, jp and bc just rinsed at the outdoor shower thingie then changed behind a towel. Dan didnt bring any change of clothes.
Then we took the chairlift up... shouting the school song on the way. this is us...
Yeah... then we trekked throught the dragon trail... even got side tracked. We came across a lot of nephilas and when we were almost out, i saw this real big one. So like dan wanted to throw stuff at the web, and i took this branch and pulled it down. I asked jp to take pics of me holdin it but he's a sucky photographer so i did it myself... gettin a lot of web around my hands and my phone. The others were like shouting for me to put it down and tellin me i was crazy and stuff... here it is...
After parting with the big sucker, we said goodbye to yong hui and went to fort siloso. As we entered, one of the guys stopped us, sayin we had to get tix. I mean i remember no havin to pay anythin to get into fort siloso last time. Haiz. Then, as we were walkin out, this tourist like gave us free tix cause they decided not to go in so whee. Free entry! The guy who stopped us before must have thought we were damn cheapskate. Yeah, so we went through the scary tunnels that sure are haunted at night.. then we found this playgrouund-like obstacle course thing. And just as we started enjoying ourselves, these 2 staff people the place is closin and we need to get out. So after a last, really long undergroung exhibit, we left and jp bought dog tags at the souvenir shop on the way out. I mean ok, they're only 3.90 but they have the word sentosa etched on the back... soo not sexay. Heheh.
On the way across the bridge back to mainland sg, we kept stopping to gaze at the water below. Something about the swirling currents had a hypnotic effect. Anyways got home, had dinner(my dad brought these two huge packs of lamb home frm aus so we had one of 'em). Then it was my usual dose of late night tv. After the extremely repulsive wildboys, there was this mondo magic thing in singapore. And throughout the show, most of the girls who were shown the tricks were like totally retarded or something. Bad image of singapore. Haiz. Then there was faking it on discovery T&L where this shy radio dj had to fool judges into thinkin he was a pro actor. Then he went through this retarded excercise wher everyone was supposed to behave like 4 yr olds. totally matthew lin(a retarded smart boy i knew, although not clinicly retarded) Then when he was asked to pose nude for an art class... to get him less scared of crowds, he declined and cried backstage. Wth. Anyways, he went for a bellydancing class and in the end, he managed to fool all the judges.
