The much awaited class outing at sentosa finally came today and at first i was wondering, what on earth are we going to do at sentosa for like one whole day? Im certainly not gonna swim, not without an extra set of clothes and i dun think we can actually play any sport for like so long without any real ball present.
But that i found out in due time. After a nice but messy lunch at subway(where i was the slowest to finish my meal. Not surprisingly, i've converted back to my old ways...), we took the train into sentosa at the rate of 3 dollars for entry 24 hrs...Sherf was pretty excited over it and you could tell by that additional sparkle in her eyes. The whole group of us marched into the train and invaded the entire cabin like a flu virus. I must admit that I myself have never taken a train into Sentosa before. In fact, I don't think i knew that such a train even existed!
At Sentosa, we took a tram to some beach with a funny name...the GYA beach.(reshuffle the word yourself! Ooh and not to mention the few jap words we all came out with-naiyigeshigei?Tokenengshigei!!) There we enjoyed the sun of the beach, pun intended. Not all embraced the warmth of the sun tho-the TAI TAI clan ramained huddled under the shade of the mini pavillion and gossiped among themselves. On the other hand, i felt that it was us KAMPUNG KIA that had the most fun! I shant elaborate much on what occurred during the TAITAI clan gathering but the full account of our KAMPUNG KIA adventures are here as follows:
For the warm ups, we( me tpz qiao yini sherf kejia sheena baby yiwen mayqi jessica...did i miss out anybody?) trudged along the full length of the beach(which was sadly, not that very long...but what can you expect? Singapore also not very big to begin with, much less Sentosa) and feeling the cool water caress our little toes... And before we knew it, we're all done with the beach stroll and stuck with very little idea of what to do.
Later someone(i cant remember who tho) brilliantly suggested that we go into the water to have some fun. Joined by Wan Ling later and we went to the water to cath tiny little fishes. There were some in between breaks where we went to play water coconut(a monkey type of game except in water and using coconut as the ball), captain's ball and to meet mr lim's wife. Sheena was the most unlucky one durong water coconut. The poor girl just kept being targeted by the coconut. First it hit her on the head-thank goodness there's no concussion, then it splashed a great big deal of water on her...and then sea water got into her eyes.. Skipping all the intervals, we KAMPUNG KIA were almost having some kind of outdoor field trip where we waded among shallow waters and captured several species of marine creatures.
Mr lim was pretty knowledgeable about the type of fishes we caught. He seemed to be able to name all of them. And of course, his wife, a pretty Russian babe with model looks, was all proud of him. The species we caught included: 1) File fish, a tiny fish with mini pricks around it, apparently poisonous when it stings you 2) Baby squids which change colour as it skids about the water surface and swims around wildly..those are the easiest to catch, since squids are likened to being BLUR LIKE SOTONG!! 3)Another type of silver fish, small and cute 4)Horseshoe crab! I never thought I'd actually see it but I did! Qiao found it and thought it was dead, but it moved! Such a cute little minature creature with a tiny tail. Then Mr Lim added another thing to our collection-a crab!! It struggled like mad when caught and seemed really furious when mr lim caught it and turned it upside down to check if its a male of female. To show its wrath, it held on tightly to my dear form teacher's finger, refusing to let go. Our teacher showed no signs of being in pain, perhaps its as we suspected, because his wife was around and he was putting on a brave front? When we placed the crab back into the bottle again, its eyes were moving very frantically and I started to wonder if the crab was muttering some crab curses in crab language at that very moment. Oh, just to add on, we named the crab Pepper. Not a very auspicious name for the crab, i would say, since it reminded me of black pepper crab and made me really tempted to cook it in pepper.
Later during its release, the cunning crab actually faked its own death! Me and tpz were actually feeling a little sad over its "death" since, after being with it for a little while, there's bound to be some feelings for it. Then Jiaming was pretty convinced that it was faking it and truth to behold! When we threw it out, it moved! And started running away-I mean, which crab wouldnt? I'd no sooner go back to the waters than stay with crazy humans who like to poke me.
I hope the crab's smartness only signify one thing-Good luck for our promos! It'd better let us all get promoted and keep our 4 H2s!
As it is pretty late now, i'll just summarise what happened later. We went back to vivo, had dinner, a little shopping and then went back home... Might go into details tmr. But for now, im off to bed. DEAD BEAT!!
Our Promise (:
