Wa can be any more meticulous anot! Got schedule somemore! haha.
The general plan was
Part 1 - Cycle from Changi Village to East Coast Park Lagoon for supper
Part 2 - Cycle from ECP to Marina Barrage to chill
Part 3 - Cycle from Marina Barrage back to ECP Macs for breakfast
Part 4 - Cycle back from ECP to Changi Village
The first part was loooong there's this super long stretch of road that seems to run parallel with some airport runway so we kept seeing planes takeoff as we cycled down that long road. I was still with the front pack at this point, and the others were falling behind it seemed, cycling very slowly!
And chipang was such a noob omg whining like a girl! Kept saying tired etc. The freshies kept making fun of him haha was quite funny. 'Eh guards one why lidat ah' (he was from Guards)
So we sat at Lagoon and me simin grace and keryu shared a plate of Roti John while we all just... talked abt random stuff. It was mostly GS and CP talking to the other PJC freshies about PJC.
Anyway, we began Part 2 shortly after this, in spite of CP's incessant complaints and suggestion to just chill at the beach.
We headed towards Marina Barrage, including a detour into this gays carpark where apparently gays go to pick up other gays and they'll make out in the bushes. Didn't see anything interesting though.
Along the way, because of alot of people complaining that they were tired and etcetc we ended up heading to Singapore Flyer instead of all the way to Marina Barrage. However, we still had to clear this crazy :
 |
| MONSTER STAIRCASE. It is about twice what is shown in this picture |
Our only route across was to go up this staircase which led to a long flyover which connects directly to Singapore Flyer area. So we had to carry our bikes up this stupid staircase before we could take that flyover.
Oh but the flyover was fun though, it had one of the longest slightly steep downslopes that we could glide down.. AND halfway through it starts to bend so you really have to control your brakes and steer your bike down.. but of course you don't want to brake too much if not it won't be fun anymore! haha. adrenaline rush max
We reached the Flyer and sat near the F1 pitstop area and just talked random stuff for abit while resting... I entered the girl's toilet there! Hahaha. Cos i went with simin and baoyue and the guys toilet was closed so we just all took the girl's toilet. It was like 3-4 AM anyway so sure nobody.
And after awhile we decided to head back to ECP macs, and had to clear that bloody staircase again but this time downwards la. But still have to carry bike.
Breakfast was extremely satisfying, relished my customary Big Breakfast (just about the only thing I eat from the Macs breakfast menu), and then it was the long return leg!!
Ok I don't know why for this leg me and simin were all the way at the back now. It's like the people who were previously too tired to keep up with us were now too desperate to get back so they chiong in front. Then I just stayed behind to cycle with Simin la, more fun ma :)
Was super shack can! The last leg back. Our butts hurt like mad from the seat and our thighs were on the verge of cramping also. Had to keep motivating each other to keep going haha. ALMOST THERE ALREADY.
When we finally caught sight of Changi Village.. OMG SHIOK. haha. the feeling of knowing you have reached the destination is awesome.
All in all it was a great experience, but I don't know if I'll want to do it again haha. Very tiring! And I think the freshies just bring a real nice energy that I like to hang around, unlike around certain other seniors... (shh)
It was also great to cycle and chat with simin most of the time, damn fun man! Though my attempt at introducing some philosophical stuff from PH1102E totally failed because I forgot and mixed up the arguments/analogies xD Was great company nonetheless :)
Though of course I wish certain other people were there, like sang, joann, CANDICE, si en, munch. My usual hangout buddies! Eh and it's not my fault that they're all girls k, the guys are all phantom one what to do. Like wilbur, gary (like almost never see him at all whole year)... noone else sia. PHANTOMS.
Ok this is a very boring post but I just wanted to pen it down so I can read it in the future for memory's sake :)
