cycling part 1
so i practically spent 99.9% of my holidays with the beloved exco hahaha!
we met up to cycle 2 tuesdays ago and here's how it went.
started the day off with lunch at the marine parade market and then we walked to ecp to cycle :-)
i guess the highlight of the day was probably how our supposedly planned leisure cycling turned out to be a complete cardio workout :P
we cycled from area's c bike shop all the way to changi beach? yeah somewhere there.
and apparently it was a whopping distance of at least 30km!!!
omg i can't even. #excoyolo
anyway thanks freda for biking me around 70% of the time :-)
i swear i have been so much of a burden (like literally because of my weight)...
but yeah nevertheless you still biked me around with no complaints at all :)
lovelove! ;)
and then the other 30% of the time it was nigel hahaha.
it was actually quite funny how nigel had to be "deep in concentration" everytime he was riding.
he seemed so lost in his own thought he nearly didn't see the oncoming bicycle oh my...
but yeah though the bike made a weird "clack" everytime we tried to find our balance but thanks for biking me around too nigel!!
and then the remaining 500m back to the bike shop with gary on the bike was as good as hell....
he kept on swerving violently left and right to scare me tsk omg...
just imagine my endless screams.
ahahahahaha gary you die.
anyway after biking we bus-ed down to the airport because david wanted to get his gary plushie hahaha.
lepak-ed at t3's cbtl and i bought mocha frapp again (better than heaven)...
walked around in the shops and played with this giant globe which we had decided our holiday destination as excofam.
picked out the most random location ever; hawaii.
HAHAHA let's go the beach-each-each guys.
kidding; it'll probably be too expensive and far...
anyway, played monopoly deal at the viewing gallery and xiaohui managed to catch the game...... a little slower than the rest.
hahahaha oops too funny.
so in order for david to buy his gary plushie at $3 we had to spend like $60 at the airport...
ate astons' for dinner to make up his expenses to $60 while he bought a $20 dinner voucher hahahaha.
and the moment when he got his plushie omg his face totally lit up...
like a small kid!
on the train ride back home it was the same situation too :P
that day's photos!
stopped by for ice-cream at a shop while waiting for xiaohui to catch up with us hahah!
yay for the red grape ice cream omg ultimate fave
while waiting still.... more photos :)
as they all started streaming in and catching up... :-)
AND YAY!
full group shot after everyone caught up :-)
this is what you do again while waiting for people to catch up hahahaha keep calm and take pictures.
it was damn shiok to actually be able to ride hands-free while holding on to a speaker to blast music :-)
thanks freda :*
after the 30km cycle we had lunch at burger king and omg wow all that cycling was in vain...
calorie intake x1000 hahaha oops.
but it's okay food doesn't matter; it's the company that does ;)
occasional study meet-ups inbetween
yup so we did meet up for 2 days in between to study at nlb!
productivity wasn't too bad but i had to leave early both days thanks to tuition ugh :/

these were taken at kinokuniya during our lunch break while slacking and looking at books hahaha.
tried to take an artsy-fartsy shot of me reading a book but no it failed 'cos 1) i didn't look studious enough and 2) i looked fat hahahaha.
cycling part 2
so we went back to ecp for a canopy biking competition exactly a week later on the eve of christmas because we signed up for it when we returned our bikes the other time.
went "early" to reccee the place hahaha ended up just sitting there and talking because we arrived way too "early".
we were the first to flag off for the competition and omg it was really funny.
so xiaohui, jasley, gary and i were on one canopy bike while wanrou, nigel, david and freda were on the other.
we had to split paths and find our respective numbers at the allocated areas, but apparently the organisation was quite screwed and they actually swapped a lot of the numbers.
cycled back and forth like some retard and we kept screaming and laughing LOL.
our bike was probably 10x slower than the others'.
while awaiting the results we played heads up and had a lot of fun hahaha!
the emcee had organised some games for us such as who has the... and guess the song.
pretty funny how everytime we sent out a representative we couldn't help but laugh at the crazy things they did.
like hearing freda attempt the highest-pitched scream (and won yay!), gary and wanrou attempting to hold the longest note, jasley and david for smallest eyes (is it?) and nigel and i for the biggest biceps but obviously the both of us automatically walked back to our seats upon hearing the criteria hahaha.
#goodmemories
later to our surprise we discovered we actually won 7th place and a hamper and free dinner!!!!
considering our super delayed timing, we were seriously damn taken aback hahaha!
our other team of 4 won 2nd prize and got a bike and free dinner!
our other team of 4 won 2nd prize and got a bike and free dinner!
omg the bike's worth like $500?
time to sell for some kaching-kaching!
had a buffet spread for dinner and omg it was probably one of our quietest times together LOL i guess we were all too hungry to speak.
had some song dedication thing and we requested for tonghua and some kpop thing that got wanrou and nigel totally crazy hahahaha.
walked back and forth for at least 1.5hours finding a bike shop thereafter to sell off the bike for $.
but one of them said our bike was only worth "$50".
seriously dude, who you tryna' kid.
but after what seems like forever we also found out that our bike would probably be worth about $300-$400 'cos it's not new-new like, super first-hand, and plus there's no warranty.
but that was good information too though :-)
sigh then again we ain't sure if winning the bike was a good thing or not.
it was such a freaking burden #burdenpatrick
lepak-ed around marine parade while waiting for david's dad to arrive and went crazy with photos and talking too.
went to download oovoo that night and guess what... our countdown to christmas turned into a stay-up-all-night-till-sunrise-at-7.03am video call :O
though there was only me, jasley and gary left but still... #excoyolo #excosuperyolo
MERRY CHRISTMAS XX
while waiting in burger king!
