The weekend was uneventful, as usual and the thing i looked foward to the most fell through, an ubin bike trip with my friends yeaterday. The morning turned out to be sunny with a slightly overcast sky but nonetheless we were undetered and prayed hard it wouldn't rain and that if it did it would be a passing shower, but alas the prayer didnt come true and whilst cycling down towards the shell station with zeng to meet drew, it started drizziling. However we still had hope, and not wanting to let rm wait in vain for us, we decided to stick to the first part of our original plan and get to changi v for breakfast, so we did and got slightly wet in the process. There we had an excellent breakfast though i only had some drinks while the others ate. After chatting and waiting for about an hour or two for the rain to stop, but to no avail, we decided to abandon this trip and postpone it to a more sunny day and bike back to drew's house to chill. The cycle back was fun in its unique way, never had we more fun getting drenched in the rain and we enjoyed the workout upslopes-though our legs went numb from the effort-and enjoyed the fruit of our labour going down slopes. The only other event that was to be of consequence was my falling off the bike, well what can i say, at the area outside elias mall my bike went over a tree branch at a wrong angle and my front wheel went off the track with my back wheel remaining on it-like the bike wanted to do a grind on the pavement on its own accord, resulting in my fall, which i escaped unscathed save for a small graze on the heel of my left hand. At last we reached drew's house and there we chilled gor the afternoon, with the four of us watching heroes season 3, playing ridiculously mindless online games, and cooking lunch ourselves and having oddly concocted 'tea'-i shan't elaborate but i will only say that mine was just a little sweet. Following that we headed down to the lan shop at elias where we played dota with rm having his first dota match ever. And then before we knew it, it was time to leave and bid our adieus.
However my evening did not stop there, i biked down to my uncle's place to meet them and my parents for dinner and we headed to oasis where my aunt treated us to a sumptuous meal, which i regret to say pales in comparison to the time we last had an oasis dinner, well i guess they changed the chef for one reason or another and then quality of food dropped. But our desert, mango pudding was gooood. Well enough of me talking, i guess you want to see some photos of the failed ubin trip so here it is....
