Pains and Aches

Went to sign the TTA today. It went successful except the personnel there wasn't too friendly. And saw Nicole and Bryan and perhaps her sis there too! Nicole is going to become a teacher too! She's teaching Maths and CPA! So glad to see her again after a year plus, and glad that Bryan and her are still together!! *Clap clap*

After that, we went Congress in Suntec for our brunch. I had wanton mee. It is SUPER oily. Cost me $3.80. And the taste was ok only. My mum over-rated it. JH and CP had prata. CP said it's quite normal. Over-rated again. Anyway, the wanton mee wasn't filling.

Then we took bus 36 to East Coast Park. There I had my first blading session of 2 hours. After I got into the smelly pair of blades and guards, it started pouring and we had to seek shelter at a nearby tent. Luckily, the rain stopped 15 mins later. We then proceeded to the Newbies' Corner. Haha, there I had my first fall. Then a second. Then a third. We tried the roads during the remaining half hour. CP and JH went ahead of me. But JH said I was not bad already on my first try. Then had countless number of falls, and one of them was especially hard on my butt. I still din manage to cross the humps today. Sigh. Well, there were still a few kind souls that offered to lend a hand upon my falls. HAHA. My back started to ache a bit and I couldn't balance myself at the end, and ended up falling and falling. Sigh. It was quite a relieve after taking off the blades. But cheers, I must say I did quite well! HEHE. We proceeded to Mac for drinks and also to meet up with Von.

She came by cab, and we went cycling. JH continued to blade. We went really far this time, and I must say I'm impressed with JH's blading skills. HAA. But her left leg started not to take her mind's control, and she removed her blades. Then the dark clouds loomed, and all of us had to hurry back to return our bikes. Silly her was afraid to let me "ferry" her back. She wanted to walk the looooong distance back. But the 3 of us force her to take the lift. Haha, she was so afraid she didn't dare to move or speak while I was cycling. The always poor-stamina me began to pant, and CP took over. We were just in time to get into the shelter before rain began to pour.

We managed to get a cab to Marina Square, which was only $5.30, cheaper than to take bus! After washing up, we had dinner at Dian4 Xiao3 Er4. Long queue even before the shop was opened! We managed to be the first batch of customers to get a table. We had their house speciaties: Shi2 Quan2 Shao1 Ya1 (herbal roast duck), pork ribs and mushroom broccoli. $12 per person. The service was good, food was not bad, but the portion was a bit small.

Then we had coffee at Pacific Coffee cos' GV only left the first 2 rows of seats for Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire. Sat there till 9pm and went home. We were all tired.

A fruitful day, but filled with pain. Think tom will be worse. Hehe.
