tour de ubin (:
8.47pm
jiayi weijie bryan leonard me zhaolong elvis
polaris platoon 5 section 3 [FULL]
(like they always say when i download movies haha)
went with my section to ubin today
in place of the (yet again) postponed msia trip.
met up at 9 at tampines.
took bus 10 from my house to tampines (~$2)
then 29-ed down to changi jetty there (~$1.50)
and then another boat trip to ubin. ($2.50)
transport fees are killing me ):
oh btw anyone wanna AWOL to ubin? :D
yea finally reached at abt 10plus am.
supposed to be a biking trip
so uhh we got bikes la.
$7 for the whole day,
not too bad la, though we were looking
for this $2/day shop bryan found on the net.
yeaaa anw just cycled loh.
bryan and elvis wanna go take photo at quarry there
cause they say v nice so must camwhore there.
so like okayyyy
and this led to our 3 hour odd nightmare
trying to find the elusive best-phototaking-spot spot
all round some random quarry D:
taken at ground level,
but then again they weren't satisfied
so yeaa we had to do some hiking and bashing
up the damn hill to get to that lousy top
of the quarry haiii.
hahah i rmb this spot
we came here during obs when i was sec 3 i think.
they said it was the highest point of the island
haha any higher and it'd be unsafe for us.
but then again.
we're in the army
we've been through worse
so wth haha we went up further.
another spot further up,
but being ns men,
white tape = no go.
so higher up we went (:
walking on
and on
and on
and on
until we finally reached.
okayyy la haha the view wasn't too bad,
but then again its really really really high.
and steep also D:
something just short of a cliff.
look down balls really will shrink that kind.
yea haha and my typical
don't-look-at-me-its-not-my-fault pose :D
and in memory of our buddies
who weren't here today
jovin the psp/ds playing dood-who-never-closes-his-mouth
and zhao long who forever wakes up the earliest
to stand-to (or whatever) in bunk.
yeaa and the section.
okay la this was a series of 10shots
that nobody knew was shooting.
then bryan suddenly went like
'oh its shooting alrdy leh'
and then everyone just started pushing around
and doing random and stupid stuff.
ya okay so bryang and elvis happy liao,
then we went all the way down again
for our much needed break.
at some random small shop
specially decorated to attract attention. -.-
very lame, but whatever,
quite hip for a 60plus y/o man la i guess..
yup after our long long long break
(no thanks to the giant fan that man put in his shop)
cycled to like the legendary chek jawa
so widely promoted by ms yap my geog teacher in sec 2.
haha actually we planned to go at low tide one
but after our morning exertions
of course we late la.
and we reached at like super high tide can.
hahah can't see nuts at all.
but still,
super super tiring can
the road there is like
one long uphill
then another long down hill.
uphill super sian la,
muscles burning like crazy hahah
we all too slack liao la after the zhuo bo OM course.
then downhill also sian
cause the more we go downhill
the more we know we have to cycled up
later on the way back. D:
oh but more excitingly
after we went to chek jawa
the coastal boardwalk there
can see bmtc at tekong! :D
hahha yay lousy juniors
say hi to your prison for 3 months next year! :D:D:D
of course walk in the super hot sun
must take a break la.
thank god for the shelter built in the middle of nowhere
(: oh and break = more camwhore for elvis and bryan la.
so yup group photo!
and the only sort of wildlife/nature we saw today
mudskippers! hahhaa
cute la. but whatever haha.
then ya by that time zhao long reached ubin liao
after his church dunno what camp meeting
so yea cycled back to meet him
then had a very very late lunch D:
hungryyyyyyy
our very latecomer. D:
and his act cute buddy.
and our very very expensive lunch.
okay la quite budget la actually
for seafood, $20 per person is quite cheapo liao
but when you have like $30 in your wallet,
can die can hahha i had to borrow (more) money
for the boat ride home
):
:D foodfoodfoodfood!
and the latecomer :D
and there goes $130.
craaaaazy for someone with $10 in my bank
(PAYDAY IN 2 DAYS TIME. HERE'S TO MY 1.5k ALLOWANCE :D)
yup then left at like 5.
cause i had to meet the band ppl at 6 at city hall heh.
late la but aiyah nm la.
afterall its probably the last time we're going on an outing
now everyone split up into diff companies liao
then i posted back to gedong some more.
won't be seeing them as much.
yup so another boat ride back,
another bus ride back
another train ride to city hall
and that's more than $10 on transport today.
bike fare not included. D:
the horrors of being an adult.
yea haha met sean weely sheng heng cheryl chungyan
at glutton's bay there.
then they ate while i uhh watched them eat.
1. i eat a lot, but not THAT much la D:
2. how am i supposed to eat with 40cents in my wallet D:D:
haha then wanted to watch my sister's keeper
since all of us haven't watched yet
minus sean, who was willing to watch again
(and spoil it all for us -.-)
so yea went to kallang leisurepark to watch
kinda far for them,
but i'm not complaining :D
awfully sad show la,
after the show every one was like
super sad can hahha
okay except sean la who was being
an ass as usual.
hahah then yea andrea came by on her way home
then talked a bit
then they all had to catch last buses home,
so yea hahhah that's the end (:
okay la although i was like super tired and aching liao
i walked home in the end.
