sentosa 181207!

woke up nice and early to buy breakfast for myself and my mum before packing to get ready for the sentosa trip with sora...the funny thing is i lookout of the window towards the city area...the sky is clear and sunny...i look out of the window towards the vivo area...grey clouds...so which one am i supposed to believe? deciding to take a small gamble...we decided to press on with the outing...hahaz...

the meeting time was supposed to be 9.30am...but as we all know...meeting timings have a buffer period of around half and hour...so i reached the harbourfront station @ 9.30am prepared to wait until 9.30am...hahaz...then ee kai arrived first...followed by yong lai and gerard...then i gerard and yl to go help buy some drinks and snacks for the trip...one by one...shiqi...oi fong...chi yuan...sheng qi and tony arrived...james would be very late...audrey joining us after her training while andy ng had sth on last min...could not join us...

the moment we exit out of the lift on the third storey of vivo city...we were greeted by the site of rain! argh...but since we are all there le...we just decided to push on...at least it was only light rain...took the sentosa express over to sentosa...luckily for us...by the time we reach the beach station...the rain stopped and the sky began to clear up...hahaz...yay! we chose a spot with the shelter @ siloso beach before apply the sun protection...ee kai and gerard super gung ho...never apply...we shall see what happens...hahaz...

played beach vball at the nearby court...by then the morning sun was out! hahaz...super sunny! convinced the girls to join in instead of "commentating" at the sides...hahaz...but soon they were complaining about the pain of hitting the vball...=P...after a long game...we all retreated back to the shade...played some frisbee...by then it was lunch time...so a group of us proceed to walk to koufu food court @ palawan beach while the rest stayed back to look after our belongings...ate a $4.30 chicken rice set...which i truely believe is the cheapest food avail on sentosa...hahaz...after lunch went to the bball court for some shots...hahaz...

while playing bball...the dark dark clouds started to loom omniously over rasa sentosa...we all knew that the predictable afternoon rain was coming...hahaz...so when it really came...we all seeked shelter @ the sapphire pavillion...playing bridge while the thunderstorm battered the island....it was really heavy heavy rain! hahaz...there was a funny episode with shengqi and her folded contact lens stuck in her eyes...of course...tony was busy scanning and surveying all the beach-goers (female ones) and "evaluating" them...|||o...haix...he ah...after around like 40 mins hiding from the rain...it turned into a light shower and then a light drizzle...seeing that...we all venture into the vball court again to play another round of beach vball...hahaz...

we played until the point that all of us were stoning and becoming "vases" on the court...so we all decided to end the day by soaking in the waters...hahaz...up until that point only a couple of us went into the water...people like shiqi, shengqi and james were hoping and praying that they can end the day without getting wet...yar right...as if we would let that happen...come on...go sentosa and not get wet? where is the logic in that? hahaz...one-by-one...we all dragged and dunked everyone into the waters and just lazed around there...until around six plus then we all got up...but not before a couple of group photos...hahaz...

took the sentosa express back to vivocity before deciding to have dinner @ seah im food centre...after dinner...it was adios to everyone...since we all have the industrial visit to PowerSeraya tomolo...hahaz...

busy busy busy!
