memories for today will be always be with me for it’s burnt into my brains.
This was 2004.
This is on the 25th day in September of Man’s 2005th year
It was 8am in the morning. i prayed hard for the curse to go away, for it always had to rain, ALWAYS. Appreciated the works of nature and the fickle minded weather we have in here. It didn’t take long for the sun to appear. It was high up in the blue canopy… or rather.. azure blue sky with specks of mongolia. HAHAs. cliches. maine knows it too.
IN short. it was. hot. sizzling hot. like.. HOT!!
We arrived and settled down at our usual spot. then, we asked for the ball - to play volleyball. Yeah, we were acting pro.
We somehow expected a standard volleyball, but we’re..hmm…surprised? don’t know..by ting’s multi-colour ball of 5 cm in radius. Tried playing w e ball, but, due to the lack of skills, it was difficult to continue the volleyball game for … the ball lands on the grd after every serve.
Interesting Part 1: someone served the multi-colored ball, MAINE hit back. But the ball went side-ways and landed on the coconut tree beside her. It hit the leaves and the coconuts. It dropped down due to gravity and "TONG!" - it had a hefty fall onto a man’s head! *it was continued by the out burst of horrible and apolegetic laughters*
Continued w the game but brilliant von suggested soccer so as to refain ourselves from…throwing our faces out into the sea. Great idea! But, the soccer game only lasted less than 15 mins and we were back to the sandy beach w dai dee.
Had a splendid lunch as everyone brought something. Nicely decorated fried rice, potatoe salad, hot dogs, sandwich, water, fishballs.. i think we ate more than we played. Nono, we did something more than eating. It was sun tanning.
Interesting part 2: Drea’s mouth was stuffed w food, when she wanted to say there was fish balls, she ended up saying.. Hee-bawl!
We tanned under the sun who generously shone it’s rays on us. THANKS.
We flipped, sang, played water-sea water. We chatted, drank, ate more. Was meaningful and enjoyable to just waste time w my dearest frens. =)
We talked about ourselves, our ambitions, people, schools.. hahas.
Bathed, cleared the rubbish and scramed.
Bathing was interesting cos it was only then all found ourselves burnt. Some satisfied. Some not. Some regretted the damage we did to our skin.
Poor han. they were calling her black instead of the pleasant word "tanned"
Drea n han n ting headed home. Maine, grace, von and me went to citylink to buy evelyn’s present. then, grace went to meet up w her parents while the 3 of us took the train home.
not sure how’s the rest surviving, maine, drea and mine’s bad. Drea’s having prob slping normally for her back is badly burnt. maine’s feeling radiation. while yours sincerely cant really think properly for my entire head is hot to the extent… i cant win pictionary w maine and drea! hahas.
"when will we be coming back?"
"After Os!"
"When will we be coming back after the time we come after Os?"
"nah..dont’ ask!"
