[edit at 230am]ok so today was spent at pulau ubin cycling. all i can say is, cycling used to be my favourite sport. ok well it probably still is but my love has been temporarily diminished. so a bunch of us met at tampines mrt and bused down to changi village to take a boat down. boat ride was suprisingly pleasant and quick and not too rocky. got bikes. and then my adventurous ogmates decided to go off trail. and i was like thinking - oh off trail fine, just means sandy path perhaps? but NO it was like rocky, hilly and MUDDY. i know i sound like a complete bimbo here. but to be fair, i kind of liked it? UNTIL i had to go up one hill too many, bumped my ass on one rocky path too many, and got my feet and slippers slushed in mudddd. the main problem was the hills. haha before long i just couldnt get my ass up them anymore and had to keep getting off and pushing my bike up. and then even level roads were too much for my tired thighs. and so basically, eventually the only thing i could do was downhill. haha. how loser.
nevertheless, i really did have fun. the weather was perfect - not too sunny. the wind in the hair was great. being close to nature was refreshing haha. and my ogmates are wacky hahah so good laughs all around :) speaking of which, i'm really thankful for steamy and the things we do together cos they arent things i would usually do on my own. and everyone takes care of everyone :)
pictures pictures..

on the boat there.
welcome to pulau ubin!

i am basically saying: stop taking photos when i'm so unglam!! hahaha.
first reststop!
bikes in the foreground make us look like some biking team haha.
last photo stop.








started raining around 6ish so we ran back to the jetty and took a boat back. the boat ride back was even nicer haha possibly cos of the rain and the fact that we sat outside near the waves. had dinner at changi village. yay for jeff and derrick who queued for the nasi lemak for us. dont think i was capable of queueing for 20mins. then walked about a bit at the beach before heading on back. my body aches like hell now. feels like it's never going to recover but that's hyperbole. going to crash soon! shiwenie's coming back today just in time for her birthday! yay :) missed her so![/edit]
