feeLing yOuNg agaiN?…mAybe nOt..

3rd lesson of my bronze cross certification today..

i still haven’t change my mind about young men (i mean boys)..
perhaps i am too old for this…too old for them..
not at all amused by their jokes and kiddy acts…
(somebody please kill me)

besides all that..
i guess i enjoy this module of life saving course very much…
swimming in the sea…in the sun…with the sand..
is just a different thing altogether than my lap training in the pool…
definitely much more alive!!..
maybe it is also because it is closer to how it is like when i go diving…
something i love & miss very much…
(3 more weeks to bali!!!)…

erm yeah…that’s my instructor…

attentive?…
i guess not all…
boys being boys….
their minds will be everywhere else but listening to the right things..

loving the sea water!!!…
(though not all that clear & of course…i don’t want to know what’s inside)

lian yu the garang chick…

instructor: there’s a lot of stone fish in sentosa..
us: really?..
instructor: really!!…

weiyang..
the lifeguard for the lifeguards… 😛

what can i say…
– nothing –

that’s little miss scream-a-lot-over-anything-&-everything..

iron woman shuwen..
who is already a lifeguard in sentosa…

*fAbuLous sUndAy ^^

it has been a while..
since i hang out at the beach in singapore..
kenn had grown fairer than me…
and that certainly eeeks him…
that’s why we showed our faces to the burning sun at km8 today…

indulging in a jug of refreshing mojito…
we feel nothing less than fabulous…

*a tOur!st in my oWn cOuntRy..

sentosa

can’t get more commercialised than ever. at the same time, it seriously look like a dump now, with all the super major construction going on now for the new integrated resort..casinos…theme parks..hotels etc etc….

when i took a ride up the carlsberg tower to experience the “view”…eeeeek… what a mess. but still it was fun taking a slow spin round and round up the tower. if only it was open air…the wind must have been really refreshing.

the carlsberg tower
tower height: 110m
viewing height: almost 50 stories (131m)
lifting speed: 1.2m/sec
weight of tower: 197 tonnes

singapore flyer. the new one.

ferry’s wheel is really quite fun and not so scary after i tried the one in osaka for the first time. i think it’s fun to feel like you are on top of the world. for a few seconds… 😛 especially when you get to stand up in the capsule, you can just scream inside.

my own ticket!! (like winning a willy wonka ticket to the chocolate factory)

view from above..

when i finally reached the highest point…the sky has darken. and the singapore flyer now looks like an ah-beng spaceship. (i just wasn’t sure about all the blue lights)

just some from the fleet of 28 capsules

i accidentally took this picture with low light and it reminded me of the flames on my mum’s gas stove…

the night ended well with a really good place of carbona at 1 of my favourite italian restaurant al forno. (not forgetting a big dish of clams whipped up in white wine sauce…*drool*)
