outings outings II !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

episode 2: downtown east with The Brother! (not the big one. the skinny, cool, smartass one.)

:D

suffice to say that tomorrow, after the 6 hour long screamingscreAMINGSCREAMING session, i think i'll have no more voice left. recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy here i come :D

anyway i think it's quite senseless to try to give a blowbyblow account of what we did, so here's the incredibly concentrated itinerary:
10am - wake up... VERY LATE. haha. made off for pasir ris via the long mrt route cos i thought there'd be seats. WRONG. even later. haha.

12pm - hit orange julius at escape theme park for a drink and rehydration before the adrenaline kicks in and symapthetic overdrive occurs, whereupon the ADH overload just kills any idea of thirst. haha. the triple berry was reported to be very satisfactory... the mango chiller was a tad too sweet. haha.

12.15pm - 1st ever theme park ride for nana, trial warmup for bro. looks bloody innocuous and tame, just a row of choochootrains on a teeny, teeny wireframe going at abt 30kmph. try it yourself... the accelerations, turns and swoops make things WAAAAAY different when one is trapped in the cart than when one is placidly criticising from the ground. gave brief thought about calling up the insurance agent and checking the last will and testament thing. haha :D

12.30pm - "Strike while things are HOT!!!!" proclaimed my brother. so we tried the inverter. i died like 3 times in 5mins. crap, just thinking about it now makes my head spin and gives me vertigo. haha. screamed my larynx out. and seriously, seriously thought about the insurance. haha.

12.30 to 6pm - went on the 360deg cup thing called flipper, the rainbow ride that swings this busload of people up 4 storeys high and tosses them down forcefully again, the haunted house, the lie-down-and-play-superman ride, THE PIRATE SHIP THE PIRATE SHIP THE PIRATE SHIP (i SERIOUSLY understood what it meant by people with heart problems please refrain from taking this ride), the daytona go-kart (lost to bro... shucks. but accelarating down the slope was uber fun in a concussion sort of way), the inverter again, the game stalls (won a totally totally adorable puffer fish... the rest were crap. haha.), more pirate ship, flipper, inverter... you get what i mean. in the end we lost count of the times we rode each ride, the amount of screaming chalked up, the winner of the no-hands-scream-OLE competition (i was an idiot for suggesting to have no hands for the inverter. WHO THE HECK WAS I KIDDING????) and eventually, our names and addresses. lolx. it was a blur. a very very scary, heart-stopping blur. haha. but every single ride was a hoot. after we managed to stop sweating and quaking from the vertigo and fear. haha :D

after all the excitement (understatement of the year) we indulged in subway!!!!! subway club rocks. and their cookies rock!!!! :D we luvluv subway. wanted the waffles but i was too stuffed to even talk coherently, so we're KIV-ing it til we come back for wild wild wet next week :D

then i got expensiveexpensive ben and jerry's S'MORES for church cell outing!!!! (cheaper at cheers lorh...) and we played heart attack :D where jackie had magical fingers and slapped kunfu 3 times!!!!!!! :D haha. too bad we didn't have a forfeit... haha. the chicken and pizza was nice! but i was seriously too full to eat anymore than a little of each :P faith gave us all a lift home - ANGELANGEL luvluv faith. haha :D if she didn't we'd all be cinderellas.

okay. so conclusion of today - my brother is the lamest human being on earth. and he's a recalcitrant liar about the "not scary la"-ness of theme park rides. and i scream less like a gal than some BOYS who sat behind us on the inverter! yes. they squeal like girls. really. and YESSSSS nana managed to stifle a scream for the entire duration of an inverter ride on the 3rd try!!!!! so did my bro... i vaguely remember yelling at him halfway through the infinite ride: "scream u bugger, SCREAM!!!!" so that i could scream without being a loser :D haha.

here's the pics! too tired to give commentary larh so just enjoy the pics!!!! :D

okay i can't resist.

mister fish has thyrotoxicosis, people! :D

note the gross exopthalmos, lid retraction, proptosis, chemosis and opthalmoplegia.

he also has saggy crumpled fins/spikes from being squashed in captivity with his fellow fishies in the rattan net!

bro says he wants to iron mister fish's spikes to make him look more fearsome with sharp pointy spikes. lolx.

you look a bit better if you were on a sashimi plate with some wasabi...

guess which one has smaller brains! :D

cool man.

cool, man.

another inmate to woodbridge.

hyukhyuk :D
