Meet up with SJ and Simon again for blading. They were both late and I was supposed to get free lunch. Weather wasn’t on our side after breakfast. It rained as we were walking to ECP. It didn’t dampen our mood as we were all geared up as soon as the rain got smaller. Simon is nice enough to offer carrying our bags as SJ and me were still a novice at blading. Jason (friend of Simon) is supposed to join us for blading too, but he loves his blades so much that he could not bear to let his blades glide along the wet pathway. His rational being, it spoils the bearings. OR perhaps its just an excuse, he is simply too shy to blade with SJ and me..haha! He left shortly after. I had some improvement, but still cant blade as fast as SJ. But I had made a record breakthrough by falling down, hard on my butt for THREE times in a day. The first 2 werent that bad, only suffered some bruises on my elbow. All thanks to the disgusting twigs that caused me to trip and fall. The final run amok fall came when I wanted to get back to the Mac from Bedok jetty. At the speed I was blading, Simon reckoned that I definitely could not make it on time. He offered to do me a favour by giving me a LIFT. There I hold on to home from behind while he bladed. I must admit it was kinda dangerous, but the feeling of going fast was cool with wind brushing against my face. At one point of time, I lost control of my blades and I let go of my hands. BANG! I fall. Hitting hard of my left shoulder and of course, inflicting great torment on my poor butt. Thankfully, my bones din give way. I was practically lying across the road for the next few seconds. I could not move an inch. It was extremely excruciating. I wish I was dead that moment. Tears well up in my eyes.
When I got home I realised I brought back some souvenirs- 2 huge palm sized-blue black on my left butt. Goodness! How ugly is that. I could endure no more, took off my blades and walked to Mac while SJ and Simon continued blading to Parkway. I met YH for lunch at Mac. Then, started blading again. This time round, I managed to reach the other end of ECP. I was drop dead tired, especially my legs. Had dinner with our IA buds at BAB Noodles, Millenia Walk. It was a dinner gathering to celebrate KC and Susu bday. After which, we walked to Esplanade- Harry Bar for a drink. Crowded as it should on a Saturday night, we managed to get a table right in front of the stage and got the Jazz singer to sing a bday song . I had chilled passionfruit Bartania. It was a sweet alcoholic drink with a cherry. We made the bday boy drink a fiery Martina and set an impossible task for the bday babies. Both of them failed to accomplish the task and the forfeit was to make both of them smack each other on their lips. Cream war was next. I was super drained by 1am. YH, WX and me make a move first while the rest went for supper. I ended up with a sexy voice that night after shouting across the table. My lungs were at the verge of bursting. It was past 2am when I reached home. To my horror, I realized I had suffered from more bruises and ugly blue-black! Dammit!
