post prelims

heya all! Its post prelims already, for most of us that is.. those taking H3 math good luck and you can still enjoy 2 days after that.. :P

The past 2 days have been totally wacko... friday, right after chem mcq was over, we all adjourned to Dhoby Ghaut for a mass lanning session. Reuben joined us!!! Its like a miracle, lol.. (juz joking reub if ur reading this). So anyway most of us lanned for 7.75 hours and it cost us a total of $15.50, which is like o.O

Then we went to some ulu eatery shophouse at outram where yi ding somhow got lost and conveniently his phone ran out of batt... (why do stuff like that always happen to u man?) The food there i would say is not too bad, but somehow our table under-ordered but we didn't care anyway. Class dinner invloved Amanda, Andrea, Azura, Hui Yi, Julia, Ruth and Xinwei who represented the girls (7/11.. not bad!!) Also Bernard, Ernest, Heex, Milord, Kelvin, Reuben, Myself, Song Jie, Yi Ding, Yi Rui, Zhang Rui and Zhenghong (12/17 not too bad either!).

After contemplating what to do after dinner, we finally decided on the esplanade and we waited for the stupid bus for like 30 mins -.- (buses NOT to take include 162 and 196). So finally we ended up at the place where we had our first class outing of sorts if i'm not wrong. Series or 'Truth or Dare' qns showed how much our class has evolved in a way compared to like one year ago and at least every1 was quite open with wad they said, less of the covering up type of stuff that usually happens and the only dare of the night came from reub how did cartwheels from where we were sitting to the wall and came back topsy turvy.. haha.. (mayb he did it so that he didn't need to answer truth o.O) Finally, we got chased off the roof terrace of the esplanade and every1 went their separate ways.

Today was the BOMB day. after much deliberation like everything else we do, we finally managed to carve out an outing of sorts. People around were Bernard, Kun Man, Heex, Kelvin, Song Jie, Azura, Reub (who came like super late, but at least he made the effort to go :) ) and myself. cycled from my uncle's house and it took me mlonger than expected - 35 mins - to reach the Macs at ECP. Jingwen appeared briefly with Robia (is this the right spelling) and their newly adopted kitten, but after that they left to study (o.O). We cycled for nearly 4 hours from Macnonald's all the way to Changi Airport!!! (we actually cycled the WHOLE length of the runway and more, being able to see the passenger terminal) After that, we decided for the sake of every1, we should turn back. On the way to the 'end point', cramps started to set in but they were still controllable due to availability of water, but on the reverse trip, it almost became unbearable, but pushed on anyway. Finally reaching the hawker centre where every1 juz sort of dropped their bikes and went to buy drinks (i think since i wasn't there). the worst part of they day when i was on my way home after buying dinner, i cycled towards the seafood centre and due to fatigue, i decided to take a short break. BAD MISTAKE!! my whole right quadracept (or however you spell it) just seized up. OMG, i thought i was gonna like stay there forever, though it only lasted at most 1 minute. pushed on back to Macs where my other muscles were also acting up, and decided to juz take a taxi instead of risking cycling back. If my leg cramped again when i'm cycling on the raod, i would feel super GG >.<

So now back safe and sound at my uncle's house, i foresee a bedridden tomorrow :( but well, to think we actually wanted to try to cycle all the way to changi village, i would give it to us tht we were ambitious :) haha... mayb we can do it next time :P I'll find out the approximate distance that we've travelled today from Macs to where we were soon. Hopefully, it can give us a sense of achievement :)
