Spend the last day of my 19 year old life at this island where u dun nid to bring ur passport, with bf. Was supposed to set off much earlier than we did but there was a light shower in the morning and we almost aborted our island getaway plan. However, drizzle stopped shortly and plan resumed, after bf , being very kindly, helped to tabao lunch to my house. =))
As usual, had to take e short boat ride from changi to the island. LOVE LOVE the boat ride! It's the best way to stay dry yet feel as though u're swimming- the drifting feeling. =) But some stupid hogger just had to stand at e tail of e boat, n so i cldnt take any pics there. EMO.
And then we we were welcomed by super alot of flags. We found out that it was dua peh gong's bday too and there's free teochew opera to watch. haha
What better way to tour the island than with 2 wheels?
BICYCLE!
DOUBLE BIKE IN FACT! =)
this pic is an accidental pic n it doesnt show e bike, but i kind of like the way it makes u sense speed. =X
And then we end up at the mangrove boardwalk entrance where bike's not supposed to enter.
Parking bike in process. See, i dun even need to lend him any hand. He can gao dim himself =X
The bike's really long n heavy...
ENTRANCE
MANGROVE
WELL
Long boardwalk but really pretty. pity it's high tide so there's nth much to see.
But we saw this dead turtle. Super poor thing. The head was missing with the fibre tingling in e water. *pukes*
Met this WILD BOAR on e way. It behaves like a dog, trying to get near human and brush itself against them. But still, it's a WILD BOAR. Totally scared the hell out of me. EEKS.
Climbed up to this viewing tower after that n it sucked all e energy out of me. My legs were already aching from the cycling. Although it's a double bike but i did help to contribute okay! =X Anw the tower's probably like 8 storeys high. *pant pant* But the view's marvelous! You can actually feel the whole tower shaking slightly due to the wind.
Halfway thrgh some ulu path, bf had the craziest idea and make me be the front cyclist. I cant cycle btw. I refused but he used reverse psychology n i had no choice but to conform. Bcos the bike is quite huge and heavy, n im not exactly a pro at balancing, the bike was swaying uncontrollably in every direction, n i fyi, was screaming at e top of my lungs. N ppl coming in e opposite direction was laughing/smiling at me. So embarassing pls! But i think i got potential to be a great cyclist. =P
Before we got some rest...
We went to drink coconut, and this gal serving out quite pretty. lol. But the coconut sucks. It's probably one that has been through alot in life. Super bitter and old. =S
After that we went to catch the boat back to urban world. While waiting there was alot of ppl staring at this thing. Being very kpo, we decided to take a look. To our surprise/horror/disgust/amazement, it was a PUFFERFISH, all PUFFED UP. =/
Anw this is my bday nails- OPI katy perry's teenage dream. So pretty right! But im gonna remove it after my bday. The glitter gel is uber hard to remove hence making this nail polish only user-friendly on special occasions. TSK TSK
PART2 of the day:
Went home to shower before heading out again for dinner with the GANG.
Had dinner together at 85. Ate the oh so famous ba chor mee, had the usual stingray plus orh lua. YUMS! Evil scott left after that n the rest of us head to siglap. Damn random, but we had the udder ice cream. YUM YUM! N i think the place's damn popular! I met like 4 ppl i know there. =O
Anw there's like 30 min left of my 19 yr old life and den i'll be a new member of the BIG 2-0 club. OH GOSH!
Anw anw, really grateful that all of them turned up. Love the company and the present! =D
