Wolfmother's White Unicorn
Haha.. I am finally back. And it's quite safe to say that it was better organised than the 4ST chalet I had earlier this year - where we had this really poor conditioned chalet in downtown east - and there was amazing food from Pepper's parents. They cooked stuff like chicken curry and cheese hotdogs and baked pasta.
The thing about our house was it was just NEXT to the pool, NEXT to the main facility block, and NEXT to the beach. So it was gooooooooooood. Hahaha, just that the whole resort itself was in the middle of nowhere in Changi. 5 Miles from civilization. And that sucks pretty much. It's also the only chalet I've been to where I see loads of people jogging and cycling at the beach outside. So I found that pretty unusual.
But then, it's a National Service resort right?
Haha.
Err... cheese?
We went to the beach and the girls went to collect shells while we played frisbee. Next time, if you wanna work out the muscles in your butt cheeks ah, you really gotta play frisbee. I don't HOW on earth frisbee trains the butt, but it works. Haha. Hanif and I got really sore right buttcheeks the next day from playing frisbee.
And then Clarence and I got into a frisbee fight cause we were trying to slap each other's butt. Yeah, I know it's stupid.. but that's us. We're always doing stuff to get back each other.
*I must give Hanif a special gratitude speech for coming down the chalet even though he was suppose to be in the middle of fasting month.* Haha.. funny thing was he was really laid back cause I think maybe he was trying to conserve energy until dinnertime.
We played games like throwing cards on the floor and shouting out a number and you have to find those cards. And the girls were viiiiiciiious man.. hahahaha...they grabbed for the cards like it were diamonds. And then we played Heart Attack and somehow Dilys always gets it.
Karaoke
When night came we ate more curry chicken and instant noodles, and Pepper took out this $5 karaoke vcd with 2001 english pop hits. Hahahaahahahahahaa, and we thought maybe the CD will play the the music videos while we sang along. But ALAS, the videos were all cheesey settings with some women walking around aimlessly, flinging their hair. HAhaa so anyway the whole karaoke experience turned into something like this:
LOL
Project: Annihilation
Pepper got bugged out by this huge lizard in the kitchen. And the three of us came up with a scheme to kill it. Clarence said using hot water will kill it, so he stood on a chair and he poured hot water down on the lizard and it ran down the wall, and he splashed it again. And then it ran out to the living room, while the three of his murderers follow suit, with Clarence pouring more water until the lizard ran to a corner. And Pepper took her insecticide and prayed on the lizard for a good 30 seconds. But it was still alive and it was running to our sitting area so Clarence too the mug he was pouring his water with and use it to slam on the lizard's head. And then it was. The poor lizard died flattened, and project annhilation was over.
'Clubbing'
And then we had a movie marathon and we started with Honey. Honey was all about dancing. So after the show we all sorta got hyped up to dance. So we replayed the ending song of that show and turned off all the lights and all of us started to caper and girate and tap dance like as if we're in a club. And Clarence (our pro dancer) taught us all some moves. And I remembered it was the first time ever I saw Shaun paul go so wild hahahaha.
The Rapture Talk
After that Pepper and Dilys went to 'sleep' (I'll explain later), while the rest of us: Hanif, Clarence, Me, Shaun Paul, and Faith continued to watch The Omen. Haha and we were like teasing Faith to be one of guys cause she didn't sleep with the other girls. So anyway after The Omen, we paused the movie marathon for awhile and we went into this discussion about God, the afterlife, sins, Muslims-Jews-Christians-have-the-same-God, love, hell, and alot of other stuff relating to rapture. It was a TOTAL inspiration to listen to Faith and SP talk cause both of them were really rooted in Christ. And Hanif were telling us about his faith and everything. It's like the first big serious discussion I had with the group of them. We're always all jokes and all fun and it's comforting, that we all can confide about mature stuff too.
I think the end is inevitable. I think it will happen. But you know sometimes our belief in the end is so strong we give up trying to change the world cause we know it will end in chaos anyway? I don't wanna be like that. I still wanna change the world. Cause like Faith said, rapture will probably be in our generation or the next. And in this period of time there's still so many people out there who still don't know about God. And that's kinda sad. Sometimes I pray for the people I read on notproud.com. I read their confessions and sometimes it impacts me so much. Cause for some reason I know these people who wrote about their most sickest, awful, tragic sins all have that willingness to change. I guess what I wanted to say is I don't want to give up. Even though I know eventually my efforts will cease into waste when rapture comes.. but in the midst you have put in 100% in living out your life and that feeling is so so much more satisfying than giving up.
Haha I digressed huh..
As I was saying we ended with watching resident evil and then we went to sleep. Hanif and I went upstairs to the guy's room to sleep while the rest 'slept' downstairs.
Birthday Surprise
I immediately fell asleep, and had this spooky nightmare that my neighbour was a girl whose parents recently died in a tragic accident (it must be all those horror movies). And for some reason I was lurking around in her house in total blackness. And then suddenly, I heard screamings and shoutings and my whole body was being shaken awake and it was the freakiest moment in my 17 years of existence man. I thought something pounched on me in that house but then when I woke up, I realise it was this:
Haha, okay. So I guess Happy Birthday to me.
Apparently none of them actually went to 'sleep' and they were all planning that. Hahaha.. they were all whispering and everything when I was asleep, but then I'm such a deep sleeper Clarence had to jump on the bed just to wake me. Haha anyway he looked damn retarded right.. hahaha.
And I must thank all of you who made the birthday surprise for me....Pepper, Faith, Dilys, SP, Clarence, Hanif. I didn't see it coming at all, and thanks for making my 17th birthday count so much.. hahaha, love ya guys w0rxxxxs.
We all woke up around 12 the next day. And when Joel came over to join us we went bowling. Hahaha.. it was my first time bowling and the balls are so bloody heavy I had trouble getting used to them. So we split ourselves into two groups and we battled it out. Our team won the first round, and Clarence's totally nailed the second. Joel was such an excellent bowler la. So it was kinda duh they will win.. hahaha.. see I'm such a nice guy. I complimented Joel.
The pro player : Joel
wo shi xiao long nu w0rx
Then we went to the arcade for abit and played time crisis which was an absolute-coin-waster. And we went back to eat Pepper's baked pasta and we played some games. And I played Jenga for the first time too. It's quite stressful when it gets unstable and the slightest swaying of the blocks get's you trembling, it gave me pre-o-level syndromes. Tsk tsk.
Hanif left cause he couldn't stay for two nights and we continued playing while Mr Choong and Mr Tan were watching 8 Mile and continuously adding the F-words whenever they censored it in the show. So in the end the movie wasn't really very family-oriented. ._.
But Joel gave me this funky present he made himself and it was cool. It was like an 'instruction manual' to listening to metal and there was a CD he burned with some metal songs. Hahahaha. Thanks.
After Joel had to leave and then it was back to the few of us, and we watched more TV and then the girls went to the beach so SP, Clarence and I went swimming. So we were swimming to the other end of the pool (which was very deep) and then suddenly SP started to struggle and he asked me for help. I was kinda shocked and immediately swam up to him and tried to bring him to the other side. The lifeguard came and gave him a big hooha speech about staying near shallow waters. So eventually we found a spot and we talked for a good hour. And I really wanna be a lifeguard in this kind of secluded resort man. It's good pay and it's good calm environment.
Rapist?
Pepper and Dilys were freaked out by this man who was lurking around our house wearing an angel suit. He came the night before and sad he gave massages for 20 bucks, and then he was at it today and the two of them kept thinking he was some rapist. Hahaha, kinda funny..
JT, SP, Pepper
We went back to the chalet and Jing Ting finally joined us. And then she started to rant about how she was trying to catch up with Shinhwa and then their manager shouted at her and she was so malu. And she talked about her work and about this really mean colleague she had. Haha I really like to hear her angsty rants cause she's always so animated.
Our Jenga that night was GG
JT takes her towel and poses as Bae Yong Jun
*must keep smiling ahh, must keep smiling*
Fondue and Project Runway
And then Vivien, Elizabeth and Jacque came and we sat down to watch Project runway. And Jing ting and I started to diss this contestant who looked like Terence and Elton John together, and he made a hat out of a basket and it was quite hilarious. And then there was one contestant's work that one judge said looked like grandmother panties and we were all just bursting out with laughter. And we also watched a Finer Side and saw how Dick Lee splurge like no one's business. Faith said it was so wrong.. he like instantaneously spent $300,000 for his birthday! Hahahaha and we were discussing how many macbook pros and DSLRs you can get with that amount of money, and how Dick isn't really that rich and he shouldn't do that. Then VIVIEN made some awesome fondue and we had fondue banana and marshmellows. And they kept making the chocolate drip higher and higher from the bowl like as if it's Yu Sheng.
Fondue - Yu Sheng
Vivien and her yu sheng fondue
Drama Drama Drama
Then after that Jing Ting started to argue about how Jacque's name is supposed to be pronounced. And Clarence and SP tried to diss her back and I took a vid of all that.
Lololol....
And then we watched Over The Hedge which was super adorable. And we ended with watching Joel's The Cube. It was so engaging that it got everyone trying to come up with theories of what's going to happen and stuff. By the time cube ended it was already 3 am, and then Elizabeth and Jacque left, even though we tried persuading them to stay. And then we watch cube 2: hypercube which to me was a bad rendition of the first cause it was quite pointless the whole time until the end. And the cubes kept giving Dilys and Pepper headaches.
Me, Elizabeth's boyfriend Jacque (the stupid one standing),
Clarence, SP, JT, Faith, Pepper, Dilys,
Vivien and Elizabeth.
As usual, Clarence scurries to the front and blocks everyone. Lol
In the end it was 4 plus. And Somehow we couldn't go to sleep. So everyone decided to not sleep at all and last it out till checkout time. So we all went up to the girl's room and their huge beds and squeezed 8 people on a queen-size. Haha. And we talked about how we got to know each other and alot alot of stuff until 7.
And the day ended when Viven's dad took us to the bus interchange and we took our buses home.
Must really thank God for these awesome people and how we made this whole chalet the most memorable experience ever. And thank you to everyone who was willing to come chalet. Hahaha, you all are for the win.
This is really such such such a long post.
Okay, my fingers hurt. Lol
