The Best Day Of My Life
The class gathering was awesome! Haha.. It seems like it has been ages since I last saw the whole class together. Okay, well not everyone was present. Maybe they have their own reasons. Yerp. People have reasons. But hey, the class spirit is still there! Heh.
Alright, here's a short summary of it all. And sorry, I'm not the kind who do picture-journals or camwhore. And hence you won't get to see any photos here. Heh. Bummer.
Okay, so I officially woke up late again around 12 plus. I had a night shift the night before.. SO yeah.. And i finally got out of bed after my phone got nudged. A text message from Emma. After bathing and all, I had Brunch. Mum made Nasi Goreng along with the sweet and sour sambal covered ultra-big Grouper fish. Mmmm.. Delicioso!
And then I started my last minute packing, ironed my clothes and set off. I took a walk instead to Causeway Point since I've got some time to spare since the meeting time was at 1.45pm. So I followed the going-to-Riverside route. Man, a lot of things changed since I last walk that route.. like 2 years ago, maybe? There's the new walkway for the disabled, a new street soccer court by the Man Fut Thong place (i don't know if i spelt it right. heh.) and also a pay-to-play game shop at Woodlands North Plaza! Sweet! Hahaa.. Oh, and they renovated the toilet there too! Nice toilet seats...
Reached Boots & Shoes early. And so I waited, as usual. Heh. Suddenly, this dude came approaching. He looked underage enough. Some kinda mini-ahbeng or sumthin.. He was like, "Erm.. Excuse me, you 18 already?" Straight away I know what would come next. Not that I could read his mind or sumthin.. Standard M&Ms wannabees.. Cigarettes, of course. He finished his sentence, "Can buy me Malboro Ice Mint pack?" Heh. Typical.
Seeing that despicable look on his face, I took his 20bucks and got him his desired pack. Fucktart. Not even a simple thank you!
About 15 minutes later, someone tapped my shoulder while I was facing the wall. I turned around and Emma was standing there grinning. She was late again and she was really sorry. Heh. Well, I'm used to it. I'm a waiter, remember? Haha.. Oh, and she did sumthin to her hair. Really cute.. Haha..
We took the Marina Bay train, 'cuz she said 'the scenery is better'. Haha.. Yeah.. True enough. So we chatted to kill time on the train, and then listened to some cool numbers from the Sweeny Todd soundtrack she just bought. Cool, eerie tracks.. I just love Tim Burton's movies..
We reached Pasir Ris like finally. The journey took almost 1hour and 15minutes. And then we headed to get sumthin to bite, 'cuz her stomach's growling. Haha.. Ironicly, after that big breakfast cum lunch of mine, I still felt there's sumthin missing inside my stomach. So we went to eat at Mini Banquet. I had some prata and she had 'one tonne' mee. It was raining, and yet we sat outside to eat. Shibby cooling feeling. And nuthin beats good old Ah Mei's Ice Milk Tea when it comes to drinking in the cold weather. Shivers, man.. Nice.
Hmmm.. I can go on non-stop about our journey to the chalet.. Ahaha.. There's just so many things to talk about.. I can even write a book to it. Heh. Serious.. Okay well, let's cut to the chase. We finally reached Costa Sands block B12 around 4 plus. And there were only less then 10 people there. (aww..) So we played some games and then decided to rent some bikes. Cool. I got myself a small GT. So we rode across the cycling route by the beach and God, the wind was just so marvelous! We then stopped by the rocks near the sea and I got carried away.. The scenery was beautiful.. Really. I just stood there, looking across the ocean, enjoying the wind and the view, without much talking.. I was utterly speechless. Like no words could describe it. How I wish I could stay there longer, hoping that the sun would set right in front of me and I am there to witness the process of day turning night.. And then we had to go..
Met the rest at the playground. Oh we had fun, alright. Hahaa.. Though I didn't get the chance to touch the swing.. Hah. Then we headed back to the chalet. We played more games, while the rest started the BBQ. I got myself useful by helping out with the chicken wing preparation. Ahhh.. The marination smelt so nice.. Haha.. All of us were really enjoying ourselves.. Really really.
And then it happened. My phone was nudging and the words 'Delifrance calling..' appeared on its screen. I knew what to expect.. I couldn't stay over.
Time flew real fast. And it was already showing 10pm on my watch. Time to go.. So me and Anders waited for Emma and Joel to return, since they're also going back that night.. Okay I shall stop now. That day was the best day ever.
Oh, did I mention.. I think somebody likes someone.. Haha.. And I really think they'll look cute together.. Hmmm... So... Yeah. Heee.. All the best, dude.
Note To Self:
everything really happened for a reason
and i thanked my manager for calling
how i wish the bus driver had forgotten the route
how i wish the expressway was longer than ever
how i wish the time was ticking much more slower
how i wish the bus wouldn't stop
how i wish the night would never end..
but man..
i know, i'd end up falling
i know, i'd end up like the I in this song
"what do i do with my heart?" it asked..
i know, i'd shatter in the end
i know, because..
i know.
and i think that things should be left unsaid
and i think it's better if she doesn't know
and things should stay as it is..
because i'm not worthy.
