The Chronicles of Chalet 4E3 OKayyyyyyyyyy.... After seeing so many of my friends recounting their experience of the chalet we had, i decided to write something about it too. DAY 1 I woke up LATE. Meeting time was 11am yet i woke up with a jolt at 10.50 am. PERFECT. Luckily i had packed all my stuff and laid my clothes out. So i chionged all the way from my house and reached Jurong East at abt 11.10am. Phew! Then the rest of the group had to wait for Miss Un-Punctual(= Diana) for about another 30 mins before we finally set off for Bedok. The chalet was cosy and i flung myself on the bed as soon as i opened the doors. Nice! After that wa endless cycling and watching Kok Hien looking hapless handling the poor bike while Jorge coached him painstakingly. Then it was time for BBQ and i remembered i stood in front of the pit cooking the food. Haha.. Had no idea i could cook! A sotong ball is undone unless it expands and looks a lil brown; crab sticks cant be cooked for very long cos it will stick to the netting; hot dogs are only cooked when they have boils around them and chicken wings taste best when coated with HONEYYYYYY! Mis Tan arrived with Kaishin and Liyana behind her and the guys busied themselves chatting with them. I was just contented cooking the food and i felt as if my face was slimmer cos of all the heat. Woo hoo! The night cycling with Diana and Benjamin was unforgettable cos i was talking to myself while i lagged behind them. The cycling left my ham strings and thigh muscles tearing apart and screaming. I couldn't even walk properly. Boo hoo hoo... Results of pure stubborness by using the toughest gear on Darrel's bike. DAY 2 In the wee hours of the morning i sat on bed with Yuan Ruo, chatting abt everything under the sun until Janar decided to stop cuddling his blanket ( yes, he brought his own to the chalet) and broke into our conversation. Man, he thought i was some kind of guru and started to ask me these funny questions. o.O... Did not sleep for the whole night and then went to the beach with Poh Ling and Qiwen and tried to wait for the sun to rise. Argh, i guess we were on the wrong side cos all we could see was darkness and the sea. Oh yeah, and ants too. Really huge ones. Couldn't walk to the jetty with the guys cos my muscles ache way too much and i returned for some sleep. Woke up to Poh Ling's call and retreated to the guys chalet cos Qiwen had a cold and the air con was turned off. Soon, Miss Flaky returned with my Big Breakfast and my saviour, SALONPAS! My thighs certainly felt alive after using those strips. After that we just went around watching how people sleep and well, Kok Hien really looks like Weishun when he is sleeping.. Eeks! Alvin looks really cute asleep and so is Darrel and Jorge. Weishun then helped Yuan Ruo put on a blanket while Yuan Ruo stirred a little, causing dear Weishun to squeal with excitement and commented that Yuan Ruo looks like an adorable baby boy. -_- Went kayaking and i was partnered up with Koky. Janar actually wanted to go solo when he didn't know how to kayak at all! Woww... Bravado! Diana was with Yuan Ruo, Mich with Yayuan, Darrel and Jing Xiang. Had a lot of fun tho my arms were sore like hell. We were the first to reach the shore cos we were smart to make full use of the waves to propel us forward! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA~~~~~ Poor Diana actually vomitted when she was ashore cos she was sea-sick. Yuan Ruo jumped into the middle of the sea to retrieve a wooden block. Michelle and Yayuan looked like they were having loads of fun. Showered and then had a little of the BBQ before heading home with Diana. Diana- Quirky and fun to be with, although was missing Kenneth half the time and constantly bringing sand onto the beds and indoors.. Best bud cos she was really caring and helped me in every single way. And wads with those balloons?!? Melody- Witch skincare fan and a hard-core cyclist. Michelle and Yayuan- Japanese toursits with those sunglasses of theirs, Laughing all the time and sleeping very soundly despite all the commotion happening. Devi and Povan- FUN GALS!!! Poh Ling and Qiwen- very helpful and kind towards me. Can nvr foeget the time we spent on the beach! Alvin- chalet planner, blader, cyclist. And those sexy legs of yours can beat Kok Hien's! And kudos to you and your family who were so enthu abt the whole chalet and u have a really humourous Dad! Darrel- Mr Nice for buying that precious bottle of Evian for me. Jing Xiang- Amazingly fun and wild. Kok Hien- Learning to cycle and kayak in 2 days and as usual, he cannot keep his nasty claws off Janar. And looking like Weishun when asleep! Yuan Ruo- Great person to chat with and the most susceptible to rumours and match-making. Poor you but i aint gonna stop just yet! Jorge- Nice work with the charcoal and setting up the fire. Overall, the chalet was more like a gathering cos there weren't many people. But it had been really wonderful and fun and i had certainly enjoyed myself despite the terrible aches. Will certainly keep these memories close to my heart. |
