Welcome!

today I'm happy. I had a pure family outing to East Coast Park from morning till around 4 plus. as usual, we took the straight bus from Woodlands to Bedok interchange. after dad bought our lunch, we took a cab to our destination. we cooled off at one of the barbecue pits (but didn't barbecue) and started eating. from my view I could see matreps with hot bods skimming the sea.

after eating, we left the pit for the bicycle rental shop. my sis, bros and myself each rented a bike while mom and dad settled with the double-seater. we then cycled to the other end with Aniq always being left behind since he got the bike with the smallest tyres among us all. my bro looked so cute when he stopped once in a while to wipe off beads of perspiration from his head. that proved how hot the weather was and that my bro simply was having a hard time trying to catch up with the rest of us.

we then returned the bikes, laid down the mats not far away from the sea and mellowed. I had gone down to the sea and just let the waves sweep my feet. minutes passed and mom called me up. my uncle and family were also at ECP but they wanted to go to the F2 carpark so we just followed suit. I thought the next spot was pretty boring cos there weren't many souls at sight. the sea was clear with practically no one around. I guess the rest had sensed the boredom too so off we went to our next destination: Pasir Ris Park.

I regretted and felt sorry for my cousin brother for stumbling upon this idea. PRP was even worse! the surrounding was almost calm and serene. I could barely hear the sound of the waves, the chirping of the birds and the voices of human beings. there was the gloomy weather to add to the already gloomy atmosphere. just as I thought of sitting on the rocks and face the sea, there were red ants crawling around me. I immediately jumped out of my skin. that was absolutely the worst ever beach experience so far.

not only that, I wanted to rent a bicycle again so I jolly walked along the pathway in search of a rental shop. and yeah, you guessed it right. I wasted joules of energy for that. at the same time too, mom wanted to use the toilet but it seemed that all the nearby ones were under renovation. subsequently my uncle drove her and my auntie to the toilet at the nearby end.

when I returned to our "picnic spot" again, I thought of doing something to fill the void. so I ended up joining my siblings for a game of soccer, volleyball and lastly rugby when my cousin and his girlfriend joined in. we played until it rained and after which, everything was packed up. we left the place and headed to my auntie's.

after doing the dusk prayers, we drove off to the Al-Ameen restaurant in Woodlands. we had our sumptuous dinner there before going to my house next. my aunt and uncle waited at my house while their son sent his girlfriend home.

so yeah. the above roughly describes how my day and night were like. as for now, I shall have a good night sleep.
