sunday...ow....

current status: in pain

loez! you might be wondering what has happened. well, i've been kinda busy for e past few days so i couldn't blog.

on friday, momo,ed,bamboo and i went to the uk funfair!!! some of the rides looked really fun but there are some lame ones as well. (the 'live' werewolf show looked pretty sucky too.) we took 1 ride which we felt was most fun and then we went to momo's house. we watched ju-on 2 which was really complicated and then proceeded to watch garuda. but the graphics was so sucky that i fell asleep slightly after the intro part.

on saturday, we left momo's house in the morning and i went to get my singpass. the queue at the cpf building was comparable to macdonald's when they had hello kitty. i waited for more than 1 hour before i could reset my singpass.

later, i went to school at 5pm for night cycling. we went to east coast park and got our bikes. we first went to a carpark nearby and warmed up. i think i'm the weakest cyclist. haha. so we set off at 10pm i think. we cycled like crazy and it was the first time i had to use the gear system which i barely knew anything about. we cycled from ecp to labrador park, to bukit timah, to yishun, to jalan kayu and back to ecp at 9am. the total distance was about 80km. the road up to bukit timah was really steep and there was a part where we had to ride across a boardwalk and it was really narrow and had many turns. if we fell over, it would mean plunging into the forests below us. that would have been a major oucher. it was a real challenge for me as my turning sucks.the road down was equally steep and i had a great time speeding down. whee! further down, i ran into the baricade and almost fell over into the forest. a few vehicles went past when that happened and i guess i looked pretty silly. there was this long stretch of flat road which was actually pretty nice to travel on and it was kinda misty and so the air was especially cold there, but it felt great! we also had the famous roti prata at jalan kayu. mr ong, the teacher-in-charge, drove a few of us back on a truck which was used as the safety vehicle. but it started to rain shortly after we got on. it didn't help much that one of the female j2's who was sitting directly opposite me was puking into a plastic bag. i just like made some noise and reminded her not to spill the puke and she called me a sissy. right...whatever you think puke-girl. maybe i did sound a bit whiny due to fatigue, but, well, who cares.

well, i must have fell over fifty times in the one night. i also ran into lamp posts, road divider signs, curbs, fellow cyclists, tables, chairs, pedestrians, a van and many other things. a car also almost ran into me. i would say i'm a road hazard when i cycle. haha. now i'm just aching all over with muscle aches and bruises. but i would it was a great experience but i would think about it before going for any similar trips. it's both physically challenging and mentally challenging (having to stay awake.) i slept the whole day to make up for the loss of sleep.

well, other than that.....tomorrow is THAT day! i'm nervous, anxious, excited and kinda scared but there's nothing i can do now....except to get more sleep. *yawn* i guess i'll go now. until tomorrow, cya~ oyasumi~
