Part 2 of outing
Part 1 of outing
Hi Elevenies again. This is your OG secretary reporting on the outing on 15 August 2009 at Sentosa in the morning and Northpoint Shopping Centre in the evening.
It all started when Yuhan told Jieyang to wait for him at 9.10am as she is coming early. Jieyang is a good boy and he waited for Yuhan at 9.10am. However, Yuhan never came and after that Dickson, Khia Peng, Yanho, myself and Yingling arrived. We shopped around Vivocity for some tidbits and we bought some drinks and a packet of potato chips from Giant. At 10.10pm, Yuhan arrived and we went to the ticket machine to get our tickets to Sentosa via the monorail.
After getting the tickets, we took a monorail to Beach Station and we walked almost 10 minutes to the end of the beach and we set up 'camp'. There was quite a big space to play and after the girls put on sunblock, we started to play frisbee while waiting for Joanne to arrive. We played ultimate frisbee and due to the unfavourable wind conditions, the frisbee was 'flying' in the direction of the person we wanted but it went of course all of a sudden. After the game of frisbee we rested for a while before the entire OG carried Jieyang to the water and threw him in. He was drenched to the core!!!. Later Khia Peng was the only one who went into the water with Jieyang which I felt was good because at leasst Jieyang would not feel that we are bullying him (since Khia Peng also went into the water and became wet).
After soaking Jieyang, the OG wanted to soak me as well but as I was quite persistent they gave up. It was also good otherwise I do not know whether my skin would become itche since my skin might have some allergies to dirt. After a while, Joanne arrived with a volleyball and we started to play Captain's ball. Joanne, Yingling, Jieyang and myself was in one grp and Dickson, Yuhan, Yanho and Khia Peng was in another grp. my group was winning the game but due to some rough actions from Khia Peng my spectacles flew away and landed onto the ground. I became giddy for a minute and went to rest for a while causing my grp to lose the game 10-8. The game also got no boundaries and thus it was not a fair competition and so we no need to do the forfeit. We then decided to 'play' with Jieyang again and the OG started to put sand all over Jieyang's body. (See photo on tagboard for the actual picture). The final image was quite obscene in some way so I will not go into the full description. Due to the strong wind blowing and the dark clouds we started to pack up and we went to the toilet to wash up. The guys washed up for about 20 minutes or so but the girls took a longer time about half an hour. While the girls were still in the toilet, Xinni called and Dickson asked her to book a seat at Food Republic while waiting for us. The girls ended their shower at 2pm and we made our way back to Vivocity via the monorail to have our lunch. Khia Peng had something on and she left us while the OG took our lunch all having that hungry look.
After lunch we went back to Sentosa to take photos of all the attractions at Imbiah Station. We took photos on some ancient car,some parrot statue, and quite a number of photos along a waterway fountain coupled with some National Dy songs that were playing in the background. We walked downstream for about 20 minutes and the terrible part was that when Dickson attempted to jump in the waterway, he slipped and moved back a few steps but luckily he did not lose his balance and fall down butt first. Then went Yanho passed Dickson's camera to Yingling for her to see the photo the camera nearly slipped from their hands into the water. Dickson and Yingling gave a short scream but luckily once more the camera did not land in the water. Joanne, Yingling and Yanho left us as they had something on.
We took some jumping photos and we went back to Vivocity to meet Huixin. Huixin first words was 'Jiamin never come today?' which I wondered why she asked this question. We went to Northpoint Shopping Centre from Vivocity and this was when Yuhan became the tour guide as this was her 'territory'. Yuhan left us and we had our meal at Genesis BBQ where we were offered students' meal since Huixin had her students' pass with her. We had our dinner and we found out from the receipt that all our meal were just $6.70 instead of the 10 over dollars we had to pay if not for the students' meal. We did some shopping at Northpoint before we took a train home. I remembered that we forgot to take a photograph of Huixin only when we were in the MRT.
The next outing would be in September and it would be planned by Yuhan since she would be the main organiser in September. Dickson would assist her if she is busy with Uni stuff.The venue would be again at Sentosa since we played only till lunch time and not until 4pm as expected. Hope that Shiqi, Wanling, Jiamin and Kexin can come for the next outing.
