kampung girls and boys
Spent the best parts of the weekend at Sentosa Costa Sand Resort. Not the chalet but the more economical kampung huts there. Since most people were only free on weekend so no choice and to book the huts during weekends we need to book two days. So off we (actually only 4 of us) went on friday afternoon to check-in. 2 more joined us later in the evening. What kind of gathering this was is still to date undefined. Let's just keep it as that. We know who we are.
First thoughts when we entered the hut:
+ Wah wah wah... a bit small and cramped hor (since we expected around 10 people somewhere along the course of the stay)
+ Wah wah wah... the floor a bit dirty and sandy hor
+ Wah wah wah... the beds also a bit dirty hor
+ Wah wah wah... is our air-con spoilt?? Why not cold one??
+ Wah wah wah... why so many mosquitoes one??
+ Should we go home and come back tomorrow since that's what some people are doing??
Haha. A bit whiny right?? But felt quite low there and then. But decided to stick to the task still. Toilets also very dirty. In the end for the next two days we used the toilet at siloso beach (new one...bery nice) more instead. Nothing to do since night already. Decided to explore. Started walking towards palawan beach. And there we found our favourite hangout for the next two days. Ladies and gentlement let me introduce to you... 7-11!! Yeah. Think we made countless trips there. Like i said we walked there the first time and on the way back found that there's a beach line bus service and we took it. Turned out the bus is cleaner and more comfortable than our hut. The thought of not going down and camping on the bus immediately came to our minds. Went to the "southernest point of asia continent" after that and for the second night also.
But got a girl keep complaining she's tired and sleepy and wants to go back hut to sleep. 1st night also no one so we go back sleep. But after bathing and when everyone got comfy in bed and lights off already she then say she not tired anymore and can't sleep. WTH. Two days running somemore. Think everyone getting old. Slept a total of 11-12 hours over the two nights and that could be a record high for a chalet stay.
Cycled on the 2nd morning with two more joining us. Rented for one hour but after half an hour like that started to rain cats and dogs. The grown-up kind. The process was kinda dramatic. Stuck at a pavillion for around an hour. When we went back to return the bikes the in-charge compensated us with half an hour foc. That i say is the right way to do business. Then off to sakae for lunch. Went back hut to slack. Then onto the exploration of the magical sen-TO-SA island. They say sand wet so don't want to go beach. So sad. The weather joking with us i tell you. Saturday rain and drizzled all day. Then today when we checked out already the weather good like f**k. Went one day too early. Timing all wrong. Wasted. Today then is beach day not yesterday. Walked around, had "Open" Subway for dinner and off to the musical fountain to rekindle some memories. A lot has changed since when we were small. Last time was only water, music and lights. Now the main attraction is laser show instead. Got fire somemore. Literally. Very hot although we were sitting quite far away from the stage. The show was ok lah. Technology. Too tired to remember or blog everything.
Quite a bo-liao 2 days there actually. Accompany a friend to SMU for their ECA fair after checking out. Their campus in the city. Very new leh i must admit. Very nice also. But their school fees more expensive. Got pool tables in school somemore leh. Saw another couple of friends there. But can see SMU quite different from NUS and NTU... at least from NUS. But it's no longer like a school. More like a office building if you ask me. The new central library also. Very new very nice but no longer feels like a library anymore. Things changes with time i guess. Maybe shouldn't change everything. Sometimes we are moving too fast for our own good i feel. Very unorganised blog this one. But i don't know what to write also. But a long time since my last chalet anymore. Maybe will be a long time from my next chalet also. Who knows??
A bear is chasing you and your friend. You do not need to run faster than the bear. Just run faster than your friend. The new-age way of thinking maybe. Just me myself and still myself. Is this right?? You ask yourself then.
A good friend will visit and bail you out of jail. But a great friend will be in there beside you telling you how f**ked up we are.
