Yesterday, kq, shimin, shiru, jiayin, xuanyi and I went to East Coast! It felt great to be by the sea, it's one of the best feelings to me! Although the heat was rather intense as it was 2pm by the time we reached! :/ haha so we rented 6 bikes and whee* we were off! Haha so we cycled, some sang while cycling, some sped off with their powerful hamstrings and one was rather wobbly. haha no prizes for guess who ;) heh dun wry dear, we know you're a newbie! :D

So after 1.5 hrs of cycling, we were in pretty much pain. haha. Makes me wonder how those pros at Tour de France cycle miles and miles seemingly effortlessly! They must have some really good padding down there. hmm

We stopped for a nice shot! Photo stolen from Geejaywhy! :p

After that, kq and I went for dinner with Ritz at Wheelock. The queues were super long, coz it was a fri night, so we waited about 1/2 hr before we got our seats! But the yummy lagsana and mudpie made it all worth it, plus, of course, the catching up!

Then, I took bus with kq back. It's always nice to talk to her. We talked about the possible future, our insecurities, our fears, our hopes. haha and kq was whining that she "doesnt want to grow up" because growing up comes with many more responsibilities. It's true, the past few months have been crazy, all the instability, speculation, mad rush and even disappointments. That period made me realize what it means exactly to be at the crossroads. Sometimes, you just feel like just standing in the middle and get run over. But I'm glad this period is over for most people and for those who are still struggling, I really hope things will fall into place soon, it will (:

Today's a perfect sunless day to go swimming. I had lotsa fun watching some kids learning how to swim! In particular, there was this really skinny little boy who was taking ages to inch forward towards his exasperated instructor. He was just hanging awkwardly in the water; looked so much like a puny prawn in the deep blue sea haha.

It feels good to have worked out your body in the day, coz it gives you an excuse to laze around and do nothing the whole night! I'll probably just sit around and watch the Live earth concert or something, although the bands featured so far are a lil wierd. According to my dad, they're a "bunch of youngsters high on drugs who have nothing to do with saving the earth" haha. He must be rather disappointed as he was probably expecting some familiar music from his generation. Maybe Frank Sinatra or Michael Jackson?

I didnt remember to wear green today, but I tried to do my part by asking for one less plastic bag at the swimming pool counter just now, haha :p Happy Earth Day Everyone!
