I have 1 week before I leave... 1 weeekkk!

ok... I think I am freaking out since there are alot of things I still have to pack...

But thats not why I am blogging...

Hmm... let me just tell you how my day went yesterday. I missed church to go to sentosa with my jc classmates. Probably the last time I will see them, esp the guys, before I leave. Was feeling quite torn over whether I should go to church as we were supposed to meet at 11am at harbourfront mrt while my church ends at 11am. As it was, I could have gone to church and still meet them in time at harbourfront before they set of for sentosa. We reached the beach only around 1 with 5 people squeezed on the backseat of Kim's Honda. Lol. Alrite, you can blast me for being unspiritual, but honestly you can worship God anyday, anytime, anywhere(although I did not think about God the whole time I was at sentosa... guess there are some things I need to work on)

Anyway, we left at around 5 as the girls had to go back to celebrate the last day of the new year celebrations. Despite only spending 4 short hours, we had a lot of fun. Thank God for the good weather - the sun was shining strong after a few days of gloomy weather. We played volleyball, and thanks to everyone's lack of practice, the ball was always getting hit out of the court or having trouble crossing to the other side of the net. Once one of the guys hit the ball such that it landed on top of a palm tree and we had to get it out of the tree using bamboo poles and standing on a rubbish bin. It was hilarious and many people stopped their games to watch us try to get the ball down, which we eventually did. The game continued quite smoothly after that. We went kayaking, causing me to ache at my butt and arms, without one of the guys as he had a back injury. We raced and the guys splashed at us, childish, and spent quite a lot of time at sea but when we got back, our dear friend said he wasn't bored. Must have been admiring the bikini babes... haha. By then, it was about 4 and we decided to finally try out the new ride - the Luge! Actually thats the reason why I suggested we go to sentosa in the first place. We took the chairlift uphill... something like those ski-lifts you see in Switz, just that there is not much scenery to admire. And took the Luge down! Really fun and fast, although a tad short if you ask me, it was over before we knew it.

At the end of the day, I was pretty tired, but I am glad that I managed to spend the day with my friends. I am gonna miss them when I leave, but I promise to try and keep in touch as much as possible. Someone lamented to me that he has lost too many friends over the years, well it is sad that such things are out of our control, but I also believe that to sustain a relationship, both parties have to put in the effort. So if you wanna keep your friends, work at it!
