ok i've just recovered from my weekend.
had a class chalet from fridae till tdy. more fun than i expected i suppose.... now lemme try n recall the events... hmmm

day1
gathered at tanah merah mrt at abt 1pm. not very many ppl at first. abt 10+ only? JOHNNY went to ask the shuttle bus driver sth. den he told us to wait at the taxi stand. in the end the shuttle bus went there, picked up one person n left without us. hmmm. guai lan. so anywae we all ended up taking a short cab ride there. the chalet unit itself was great. some 2 storey bungalow with 2 rooms n 2 toilets n a kitchen, flat screen tv, CABLE and KARAOKE but we din use the karaoke in the end tho cos no one brought cds heh. hmmm i think we went bowling after tt... den played some pool (which was 2 bucks a game!!!!) oh yea n somewhere in between jtay ordered pizza with his 250 bucks. hmmm... den at nite me, sean, aaron n poh wei took a shuttle bus out for dinner n to da bao food for the rest of the guys. came back at 11+. hmmm.... we din sleep for most of the nite as a bunch of guys were playing an uber long game of risk upstairs n some guys were playing mah jong, some were busy with some soccer ps2 game n i myself was busily earning income thru furious poker games. in the end our corporation (me, sean n she hern) won abt 20 bucks tt nite.

day2
hmmm... wad de hell did we do? errr.... i think i remember going bowling again n playing pool again.... we played poker again somewhere n we stretched our earnings to 25+ bucks. so in the end each person took home abt 8.60. ok well highlight of the dae was de bbq. sean ordered from wendy chen hu is none other than our canteen's green plate auntie. the cost was 260 at first but in the end the uncle only charged us 200. so they drove up in their black mercedes benz n began starting the fire for the bbq. initially we had invited alot of teachers but most of them all din turn up in the end. only png came. n so it was tt the bbq went on... oh yea john lee was caught sitting in front of the tv alone watching miss world. n was later joined by various other people. sean was stuffing himself ni a bid to clear up the food while andy, she hern n hongkai were playing cai quan to try n clear up the fried rice. quite unsuccessfully i might add. at abt 11 we went to play pool again. den i watched the others bowl while trying to curb my spending. when we went back, everyone din do very much n most ppl were already fast asleep. u noe it always seems to happen tt way, everyone'll be busy playing the first nite n busy sleeping the second. always u noe. every chalet. so anywae, i went to sleep too...

day3
nothing much happened. we just woke up at abt 8 something to get everything cleared up. check-out time was like 9-10 so everyone was pretty busy. in the end we waited at the bus stop toking cock for abt 40mins while waiting for the shuttle service to get us out of the place. den everyone took the mrt n began splitting for home.
ok so i suppose tt's abt it.

the place was pretty good la cos the bungalow itself was pretty large n could accomodate our 20+ ppls fairly well. but the location was very very ulu. after 8 u cant even get a decent meal for cheap. cheap as in below 10 bucks. bowling was cheap on weekdaes at 1.80 but on weekends it was o-k at 2.80 per game. pool not too good as it was only per game at 2 bucks. cycling was like 5 bucks per hour or sth. crazy shit. n if u wanted to get out u had to wait for the shuttle bus or take a cab. i heard some guys took a 1h walk from there to east coast tho. in tt sense i suppose pasir ris n east coast are better.
in any case, i guess i've enjoyed the chalet pretty throughly, for a while i was able to forget most of my troubles. i think the class is relli bonded much better after it. i noe i myself finally began to get to noe some ppl better which was relli good.

sNooZe.
