PulauUbin
Yup went ubin today! had lots of fun!!! totally enjoy myself...but back with aches, heat rash, bites and bruises...haha reached there at abt 11 plus...could have been earlier if not for the silly bus from tampines to changi village...SUPER SLOW...supposed to meet my cousins at 10.30...ended up there at 11...felt so bad...anyway...weather was SUPERB...SUPER HOT...which explains the heat rash...
Off we set off in a bum boat...my first time there hence super excited...several stalls around..so were browsing to see which gave the best deal...rented my bike for 4 bucks...for the whole day!!! started off fine till i realise vans travel on the same road as us...a bit sua ku i noe...haha quite scary...anyway abt 15 mins later, my bike's chain entangled...the peeps helped to undo it but to no avail...the guy had to cycle the spoilt bike and get a new one for me...tt i have to thank him...my cousin made sandwiches for us...so at the next rest point...we ate the lovely sandwiches...YUM...
2 other peeps join us later...we visited chek jawa...which was quite disappointing...think it was high tide...hence couldn't see the sea creatures...cycled to the other part of ubin...it's damn tiring...where there were no proper tracks, had to cycle on rocks and superly uneven steep ground...veered off course twice...the first was really scary...in the middle of the slope...my bike lost control...luckily i held on to a rock wall nearby...if not think i might have landed on the ground...second was my bike went over big rocks and lost control...fell to the ground but was able to balance...hence, wasn't THAT bad...anyway overall, it's really fun! and we ate lots of bread and drank lots of water...didn't take pic (except 1 at chek jawa) cos our hands were dirty and we were all sweaty and tired...stopped cycle at abt 1630...cycled for 5 hours!!! longest i ever done! can imagine my butt is damn painful now...but it's really quite an experience i would say...NO WONDER my cousin said she finds cycling in east coast "no kick"...now i fully understand...really challenging...not for the weak-hearted!
headed for dinner at an eating place...ordered quite a bit of dishes and all 7 of us tucked in...the food was generally good...and we ordered lots of drinks...lemon tea, coffee etc...think we really lost a lot of water...the bill came up to abt 79...thot it was rather cheap...looking at the food we ordered...then we decided to head back since we were really damn tired...it was quite a happy day...i enjoyed myself a lot...
TILL...the guy msg to say his phone got scratched...kind of had a slight argument over the phone after that...was asking how it happened...but it was not impt to him since it ALREADY happened...anyway conclusion is he needs to be alone for awhile...fine...it's not that i won't let you be alone...jus tell me you wan to settle ur emotions then reason things out (which he did at a much later time of our conversation) anyway really quite pissed...cos it's as if it's my fault (since i asked him to put my water bottle in his pouch...BUT no one knows what caused the scratch)...anyway i took it upon myself and searched for a spare battery cover online...even emailed htc to ask where i can find it...and joined a forum to ask if anyone knows where to find it...i dun care if it's in euros or watever shit currency...jus want to get it done...even to the extent of buying another phone and taking the farking scratched cover...will see...sigh thought i could spend some of my avc on myself...oh well, shit happens i guess...
my hands are really aching badly...to be specific, my palms...not sure if it's cos i held on to the handles too tightly or it's jus a result of 5 hours of cycling...if dun feel good tmr, won't go run...will jus nua and recover...
