I’m so glad that I made full use of my CNY off in lieu today by doing a string of activities with ma ladies.
Morning swim with Ash → squash when Lynn and Vin arrived → afternoon swim (again) → lunch at Robertson Quay using Entertainer app and bill amounted to only $31 for four (cheap thrill!) → coffee at Smitten → super impromptu trip to Sentosa Wavehouse ‘cos Gillian had discount → flowriding for an hour (but actual playtime for each person was less than ten minutes) → wasted trip to Buona Vista as the place we wanted to eat at was closed argh → Ash left → dinner at Lavender Food Square instead with Loti → reappearance of Ash ‘cos she forgotten her house keys.
What a day!
Back to the main highlight.
Feeling ganchiong, humji, and suaku at the same time ‘cos it’s our first time at Wavehouse, despite it being opened for so long.
Took me a lot of falls and balls to finally stand up without support.. for four seconds. I think I fared the worst among everyone :\
But I had lotsa fun definitely. Felt younger and more alive too 😀
On a random note, I love the random backdrop that Lynn spotted then urged me over to strike a pose.

The reason why I haven’t posting much for the past month is because I’ve lost all my arm strength to Climbers Laboratary. *Looking for excuses.
Gearing up.
Game on!
Moving on to the third wall, it was challengingly manageable until the very last bit where the wall’s inclined – I mustered like 70% of my strength to grab on to the last groove.
The route is called ‘See Cups’ and it’s graded 5C+.
Every route is distinguished by colour and See Cups’ luminous yellow.
Fwah! 有风 lei~
Next moment FAIL already.
So I tried and tried and squirmed and jumped and pulled and used up every inch of muscle to merely grasp that damn cup I kept failing at for a split second.
He climbed to the top within seconds like it was nothing :O
To add more dynamism, the routes are changed every quarter so climbers can keep coming back to outdo themselves. I think this purple route should be named “IMPOSSIBRUUUUUU!”
Thanks Eugene for having us once again, and kudos to Lynn for driving us all the way to Toh Guan and help snap many many photos.
Every time when I see people cycling this “family bike” at East Coast Park, I’m like, “MEH. So lame..” until I hopped onto one randomly with my poly clique one weekend and I laughed till stomach pain.
Look at all these laughters man.
What is Jarryd looking at hur hur hur just kidding.
Bunch of jokers since 2005.
Love this group shot!
LOL look!
Man, the petrol kiosk, traffic lights, roundabouts and all. If these don’t look nostalgic to you, you’re too young.
Exciting stuff, but mothereffing tiring.
What an evening!
Just what would I do without these man? I’m in love with swimming, I really am. Apart from the fact that it’s cardio, it makes me feel liberated whenever I’m in the deed. It calms my soul, gives me time to think, and is a cheap and healthy activity to do with or without company. I also felt an improvement in my overall well-being and stamina. My highest record so far was 54 laps last Tuesday (34 before work and 20 after work) lol insane or what! Though I’m slow compared to my peers with a not too accurate swimming technique, I still enjoy doing it. Damn, I must have really been a terrapin my previous life.
With bro and cousin Alan. Kudos to coussie for treating us there!
As a gesture of appreciation, I treated them to ridiculously expensive and disgustingly dry hotdog buns at $4 each, and pathetic nachos with cheese at $5. Daylight robbery indeed, and I fell for it ‘cos they didn’t display any price.
Of only police cars look that awesome.
$6 for a decent salmon shabu shabu set with many many “liao”!
Dead horses walking slow hahaha.
Love this place.
Don’t know what the hell I was doing.
Next up, West Coast Park initially. But we took the wrong turn so we headed to HortPark instead. Not a bad choice ‘cos it’s a good place to cam whore.
Check out Sil’s 眼神. Like super adore me LOLOL!
Everyone at HortPark kept taking photos of the flowers so we must take to prove that we were there too.
Discovered a new bike rental shop with cheaper rates, lighter bikes, slightly nearer distance to our destination, but some rude ah tiong attendants.
On the most boring 8km stretch.
Got the ‘in the woods’ hweeling.
Clad in the most kuku looking and almost useless ponchos, we cycled about 15km back in the rain. An experience, really!
The double bike was such a liability. Sil and I rented it, but in the end the guys had to take over hahah.
Cruise siol!
Ordered six jugs of beer during happy hour. Walau exercise already also no use D:
Look super disco please!
