Back from the chalet... as usual gg to blog abt it... but before that something else first. The gastric flu that I had last wk wasn't really an entirely bad thing after all =)
Firstly the 3 days off work provided enough time for the skin irritation on my knee tat i got from using the anti-inflammation gel too often to compeletly fade off. So no more rashes hehe ^_^
Secondly i always wanted to lose a few more kg to take the stress off my knee a little... but since i can't really jog for long period now it's qt hard for me... esp when i'm not really gd at controlling the stuff i eat... but apparently that few days where i didn't had much to eat help me shed off 2kg... yay~ =P momentary happiness... since most prob i'm gg to gain it back in a wk or two.... hope i dun though....
Thirdly i quit my coffee addiction... haven't had a cup of coffee since mon... though had the thought of drinking coffee occasionally, apparently the flu screwed up my gastric so bad that the thought of the coffee taste in my mouth somehow makes me hav second thoughts.... most prob gg to start drinking again in few days or so.... but not as much as i use to in the past bah...
And most imptly, I get to see her almost everyday this wk since she has been coming to my hse to take care of me... got to spend more time together.... esp when it's less than a wk b4 she goes canada for a month for her student exchange prog......
Still waiting for my slp-deprived friend to wake up so we can hav dinner.... think by the time i finish this long entry he won't be awake yet...
And now more abt the chalet... It starts on friday aftn and ends this morning but I only reach there on the fri nite since i hav to go back to camp in the morning. Met sk and wb for dinner at westmall first b4 I meet her at je and took mrt to bedok followed by a cab to the ecp chalet. By the time we reach there wp was already a bit drunk though he insist that he's not.. lol.. Watched soccer for a while b4 yh, lh, linda, hy and me went for nite cycling. The feeling of it is juz damn shiok ^_^ There's not much ppl ard in ecp late at nite, so I can juz go cycling at a fast spped and feel the wind blowing past my ear without worrying abt crashing into other ppl's bike.... damn shiok... haven't really had this sort of feeling since I stopped jogging at nite... Cycle all the way to the bedok jetty where there's a lot of ppl fishing and some ppl camping. Had a taste of ferrying ppl on the double bike, and me and yh tried to teach hy how to cycle.. meanwhile linda and lh went back to the chalet to get smething to eat while we continued.. After a while we moved to the cycling track near the seafood center since she said that the jetty is not a gd place to learn cycling... there we spent another hour or two trying to teach her... improvement there is but she didn't manage to get it ... at ard close to 2 am sz and lh joined us again... stayed till ard 4 am bah b4 we went back to the chalet and as usual i went to slp..
Then on the second day we went to have lunch and went into 2 of my senior from nj choir, one of them is from css choir sas well... They opened a waffle shop there... huacheng is one of the owner of the shop too... so some of us had lunch there.... then we spent much of the sftnn back at the chalet deciding wat to do and watching tv... After alex and wh joined us, we went out again.. some go for kayaking and some kite flying... Played till ard 6 plus b4 gg back to the chalet to change.. went to the hawker at ecp after ws joined us at ard 9.. Got to eat a lot of things that i haven't been eating for the past few days =) And discovered one thing too... I'll lose my sense of balance after I'm too full =S Cycled a double bike there but in the end had to cycle a single one back since i can't control the double bike..=p Almost lost control a few times too when i'm cycling back..lol
Accompanied sz back to the chalet to rest since she's not feeling well.... while the rest continued the nite cycling. Didn't go cycling too since apparently I overdid it the precvios nite/morning... hai~ the damn knee haven't recover yet... But anyway... after slping for a while i dun feel like getting up.. Got up once to take a shower when the others came back from a break... but the shower juz made me felt more like slping... hahaha... slept all the way to 8 in the morning while some went to watch the sunrise... damn missed the sunrise-watching for this chalet again. Then check-out this morning b4 taking a cab back home and slp... as usual think i'm one of the few who slept the most for this chalet again =p
Hmm... someone told me that our sec sch class chalet is a complicated thing.... I think perhaps maybe there's been qt a few intra-group luv crushes gg on in the past bah... hahaha =P But maybe there's more to it which i dun really notice... Time passes and ppl change... both physically as well as mentally... i think it's qt a miracle that the 10 plus of us are still qt close after gg through the jc and the army period... Though not everyone showed up for the gathering all the time i would say that we feel qt close together bah... In the past there are a few among us which dun really strike a conversation with a specific few cos we dun feel that close enuff to really talk abt personal stuff... but i guess that has improved among certain ppl in the group... can tell cos they can sit down and talk for hours during the long nite... Qt a few of us agreed that this group of us are gg to be lifelong friends... and some thinks that me and her are most prob wun breakup... esp since the two of us hav so many common friends that if we did the effect will more or less ripple through the whole group... hehe... I hope we won't ever break up too ^_^
But I find it a bit sad that though the bonds strengthed among some of us... some hav slowly moved away from the group bah.... I guess it can't be helped... but still find it sad nevertheless... and also... i choose to believe that things are wat they seems to be... cos I dun feel like gg into anything that might lukes beneath the seemingly calm surface... and i hope tat nthing lies below it.... But sometimes it frightnes me a little when i imagined that wat if all the bonds and friendships are nthing but false illusions? I hope i'm juz thinking too much bah... For them, i'll try to treat each of them with eaqual priority and be there if they ever need me ( of course needless to say one of them is gg to take higher priority than the rest.. hahaha bleah~ ).... No matter wat, they are friends that I'm really luvky to hav... and really want to treasure...
and finally gg to end this entry soon since my slp-deprived friend finally woke up ard 10 mins ago... b4 that for sk the hardcore clubber and bc who led him astry (=P) : dun 'swim' too much in the S'pore pools during the world cup period hor.. i dun want to see the both of u drown in it.. hahaha so wanna watch soccer on the coming wkend?
and i think i need to increase the RAM of my com liao... and also get a webcam soon... hai~ need more $$ =S
