I’M BACK
From some weird kelong thing that I’ve been at for the past two days. It’s been fishing, fishing, more fishing and occasionally sotonging for all the time I’ve been there with Fariha-ha, Kenneth, Jonathan, Xiangfeng, Meiying, Wynee, Clement, Jiawen and Anthony.
Stuff that I want to remember from the trip:
Learning to fish
The speedboat ride there had had us bumping over the surface of the water – I bet the driver enjoyed our randomized screaming
The wind
The friendly people there who taught us rudimentary fishing
The double bunk beds from Bed Hell, with ants and a weird couple sleeping beside me and Fariha
Jonathan accidentally calling for Anthony (who snores loudly) to sleep with him when he was actually calling for Kenneth
The first game of Bridge I played with Fariha, Kenneth and Jonathan, where the Ace of Spades went missing and it was the card that Jonathan called to be his partner and we all didn’t have it and we all played against him and halfway through the game he realized that he didn’t have anyone helping him and everyone got very confused as no one had the Ace of Spades until Kenneth fished (argh pun) it out of the packet and ran away when we all made a lot of noise
Actually catching fish without using bait and using your hands to remove the painful hook from their mouths
Anthony getting stung by some poisonous fish (he brought it back home to eat)
Star-gazing and looking for a meteor shower at 11.30pm in the night when we actually didn’t know what direction to look in *Extra: When we were looking at the stars, someone commented on the validity of the meteor shower at 11.30pm and JonP in his traditional, lame set of slack humour, said: 'Maybe it finished bathing already.' As expected, there was a brief pause as everyone digested what he just said before cries of 'Jonathan!' 'Jon!' etc etc issued from everyone else. End Extra*
SUNBURNS and forgetting that UV rays exist
Bathing in the wind and ice cold water
Sea snakes and barnacles getting caught in fishing hooks
Actually discovering where the phrase ‘hook, line and sinker’ came from
Rediscovering how gay ODAC guys can actually be and considering once again, if they actually fit into guy category
Screeching at Kenneth, Anthony and Jonathan who did not bathe for a whole day after being slapped raw by the (salty) wind and getting hot and sticky because of the sun
Being freaked out by H.P Lovecraft – he’s really very creepy
Copious hours of sleeping on the van when there was nothing much else to do
Cam-whoring – I expect full albums from Meiying, Jiawen and Wynee
Anthony kissing a dead fish
Jonathan attempting to eat that same fish (I think it’s really badly traumatized)
Fariha getting wet twice on the same boat ride in the same seat
The rain

Thank you, Meiying’s family! =)

And then Aggie lauded me with this.
