title: Satisfying aches
I spent the earlier part of yesterday at East Coast with my cell.
Getting there was kinda...strange though. I had to cross the flyover and since I was on the wrong side of the flyover I had to walk under it through unkempt grass after I came down. So my feet were kinda wet with dew and stuff. And when I got there at 1030 I had to wait 20 minutes for the rest to come. (Meeting time was at 1030. LOL.) But Lagoon was quiet and peaceful at that time and I was kind of enjoying the momentary solitude ;)
We walked/cycled over to the volleyball net and played frisbee for about an hour. Apparently the vball net is new and no one uses it so that area is nice and empty and free for our use (if we decide to go back there soon :D).
The hokkien mee at Lagoon is awesome! Although Mel and I ate ours without prawn or squid and I think the stall holders must be thinking what brats we all are since Kevin, too, asked for no dou ya for his. Haha!
[this was carried out in Chinese]
And then we asked the auntie, "What's squid in Chinese?"
And the uncle was like, "Sotong. Oh that's Malay!"
Then they said something like "Pu yu" or something.
And the best thing was, the auntie said, "你们在学校里没有学到的meh?"
Then we were like, "No."
She must have been thinking the kids of today are just. SAD.
After lunch we returned to that cosy spot to play volleyball after the-one-who-owns-the-volleyball aka Evan came at only 1 plus (!?!). After a particularly uneventful attempt at volleyball we decided to play soccer on the court which had no net. Mine and Kevin's slippers were the goal posts. And we actually had quite a lot of fun, what with flying sand, ankle-smacking and what-have-you!
I now have a weird sunburnt spot on the top of my shoulder where I forgot to apply sunblock! OHWELLZ.
But it felt great to be back together having fun after the O's snatched away everyone's freedom for a few weeks. :D :D
Btw I managed to get this awesome Steve Madden bag from the Robinsons Expo sale today! Don't ask me why I went there because I normally hate expo sales due to the absolutely sky-high numbers of people there, but Joni said there was something there I might like for my prom shoes. Well in the end, I decided that I'm sticking to my original pink pair of Steve Madden's. LOL.
