my search for verve

Wednesday, December 15, 2004

I just woke up from a power nap.

I am still super sleepy, but super happy cos I had a lot of fun at my NUS class chalet!I went to costa sands yesterday afternoon, and we played volleyball by the beach the whole afternoon..hence the bruises on my arms right now..we got all hot and muddy and sweaty, but volleyball's always a blast!esp with my class.. :)

We then went to rent bicycles for the night..JJ flirted with the bicycle auntie, and she agreed to lend us bikes until 1030am the next morning for $8!We then went for a short bicycle ride. and back to the chalet to eat dinner, play bridge, watch tv, sing songs and of course play mahjong:)one of my classmates played guitar while the rest of us gathered around the single piece of sheet music to sing along with his playing..we made a huge racket..the neighbours must have thought we were crazy..I can just imagine them going, "The crazy nieghbours are opening a bicycle shop." (We had parked all of our rented bicycles in the tiny porch area) or "They must be a choir group having rehearsal during a chalet."

We headed out for our cycling marathon at about midnight..the plan was to cycle to changi food village for supper and head back..it was a LOT further than we all thought it was though!The guys took the lead, and they took good care of us girls..making sure everyone stayed single file and nobody got left behind..it was a pretty exciting but exhausting trip!There were even a couple of scary dogs which chased us along the way!scary. And the weather was just perfect for a night of cycling. The cool night wind was invigorating and it felt so great zipping through east coast park without having to worry about crashing into any other cyclists..It took us about 2 and a half hours to finally get there..We were super tired, and quickly fuelled up on wanton noodles and iced drinks..we left changi at about 330am..we decided to opt for a different route back, which didn't involve us cycling along long, boring, dangerous stretches of roads, where cars tended to zip past us alarmingly..

We ended up cycling from changi to loyang, tampines, bedok, marine parade and finally back to east coast!whew. By the time we parked our bicycles and staggered back into our chalet unit, it was 6 am and we were literally dead tired. All of us just sat there dazed for a moment, then we looked at the mahjong table and my classmate asked, "Anyone up for mahjong?" And 4 of us crazy people proceeded to shuffle the mahjong tiles at 6 am in the morning. The more sane people headed upstairs for some well-deserved rest. I ended up playing mahjong until 9am..After which I was so tired and zombified I was seeing everything in a daze. I had slep 2 hours in the past 48 hours!I had definitely not recovered from my jet lag yet..

Think I'll go bathe and go to sleep again now..oh my poor aching legs..haha but it felt great cycling the whole night through..thanks cn5a for the great time i had!
