after lesson on thu, naz, sharlene, sc, mei yin and i went lido to watch Eye 10. was a humourous cum horror movie, all about 10 possible ways to encounter ghosts.

after the show at 11pm, we drove to changi village for supper. ate nasi lemak, and i drove home after that.

woke up at 1.30pm on Good Friday when mei yin and hui xin called to ask if wanna go sentosa.

left home at 2.30pm for outram park cos mei yin will pick me up there.

drove into Sentosa with naz, sharlene, sc and mei yin. met up with hz, hui xin, wei cai and ho hng. rented bikes and cycled.

halfway up a slope to parade square carpark where we parked the green elf (Hyundai Atos), the chain on the bike sharlene and i rode became loose and i had to fix it back.

went to take some drinks from the car before cycling down the slope to palawan beach.

unfortunately, i lost control and our bike slipped. we fell and bruised ourselves. wat a misfortune. sharlene can still laugh at my saying "Ouch ouch ouch". my spectacles flew off with scratches and my right palm bled.

but it was a minor case. cycled back to siloso beach where we returned the bike at 5.50pm. walked back to parade square carpark where i drove to visitor arrival centre and back.

then i drove hz, hui xin and ho hng to visitor arrival centre where they then took bus back to the mainland.

left with naz, sc, sharlene, mei yin, wei cai and i, we went to bugis' flea market, before heading for east coast park for pinic. it was a memorable event, and my first time picnic. spreaded tuna on my bread, coupled with some tidbits and drinks. it was dark and we were the unusual group of insanes to picnic at this hour, about 8pm.

we left for a carpark near fort road to have a rounding. wei cai and sc tried their first time driving. we left at 10plus. mei yin drove this time and not long after we drove off, a car hit head-on onto our car's bonnet. that car was supposed to stop behind the stop line but it didn't. after taking their personal particulars, we drove off but the car broke down halfway along Bedok Sount Ave 1.

Luckily alan and sis were driving towards this direction and they rendered their help. the most fun part was when we had to push the car into the mobil station from the traffic junction. it was like a funeral possession indeed. we waited for ages for the other party to come. the car owner also arrived and negotiations among them were made. but we aren't sure of the conclusions thereafter. it was up to them to decide.

we changed to another hyundai car, a 1.5 litre one. went to the accident spot to take some photographs before stoping over at macdonald's to visit the restroom.

drove to changi beach, our last stop, at 3am plus where we pitched a tent for the night.

naz left at 6am and the rest of us left at 8.30am. returned the car at aljunied before going home. it was one of the most adventurous trips i ever had.

so many things happened in one day, from falling off a bike to meeting a minor car accident. it was certainly a moment worth reminiscing of.

Saturday, April 16, 2005

ytd (friday 25 Feb 2005) morning, i met sharlene and mei yin at aljunied at 10am to collect the car we rented.

it was metallic green hyundai car which costs $55 from 10am to the next morning 10am. we drove to school and during break time, sharlene, mei yin, siew ching, hui chen, wei cai and i drove to toa payoh where we had lunch, before driving back for tourism class.

as dusk falls and sunset, the night came alive with a myriad of activities. we drove wei cai home first as he needed to give tuition. alighted him at hougang before we went to east coast park where sharlene and i had a great fun driving recklessly at the spacious carpark, driving reverse at high speed and applied engine brake, such that a mum with her child was looking at us shockingly.

went to the beach before going to tampines for a refreshment stop where we bought old chang kee snacks.

drove to hougang to pick wei cai up before finding our way to old changi hospital.

we finally reached at almost midnight and the domineering hospital was situated atop a hill which looked very eerie. no single soul was spotted and we climbed cautiously up the stairs to the abandoned hospital.

the trip was spine-chilling and we managed to enter the hospital without being caught. walked through many wards, lifts and sanitary rooms. all were spooky and the darkness was all the more daunting.

after a walking tour, we returned to the ground floor where we heard giggling sound. we were terrified but later came to realise it was just another group of explorer. they were a group of 4 malays whom we later joined to explore the hospital.

walking along the corridors of the ward, we saw blood stains on the floor and one could have easily imagined the critical moments of rescue back in time, with nervous situations of patients being unloaded from the ambulances to being pushed into the operation rooms.

we wanted to explore where the mortuary was but the gals wanted to leave. so we left, leaving behind a mind of mystery and unfoundedness.

we drove to the nearby changi village where we spotted some transvestites who were stationed along the roads, waiting for their potential customers, before having supper at geylang, where we had beancurd with you tiao.

then we drove through some streets to have a look at the prostitutes, before driving to mount faber.

unfortunately, while mei yin was reversing the car when parking, she mounted a kerb and the rubber pad fixed near the rear tyre dropped off. we headed and reached east coast park at 4 am plus where we laid on a breakwater and slept till 7 plus.

as we wanted to buy super glue, we drove to the 7-Eleven near ecp's macdonald's but it was out of stock.we then went to a store at my neighbourhood where it was available, and tried fixing the rubber pad back to its original position.

i left home thereafter and had a great sleep.this trip will certainly form part of my memorable experience and i am sure to look back to this day with great memorability.
