an "out-of-spore" experience

During my 2 weeks holiday in Sing-Aust, I went on a little excursion with Meow Meow and Yu Yu (a cat and a fish)......It was a fantabulous day out!!! Cos...not only did I get to taste sandwiches and carrot cake prepared and baked with lovee, but I could also finally ride on the wakeboard!!! the feeling is just...SHIOK!

Always thought Im hopeless in wakeboarding (cos I tried twice in HK but the waves there were just too strong!) and was really afraid that I will not be able to stand ...but I DID and I was riding for pretty long too!!! All thanks to Meow and Yu for introducing me to Jem aka Captain Hoe Say Bo!!!! Just a few words of wisdom from him and I could ride!! Yipeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!! THank God he didnt have to chop off his head that day! (he said if I cannot ride..he will chop off his head)

Im so excited about this new found sport!!! Cant wait to do it again!!!! But nothing can be compared with doing it again with Meow and Yu, my motivators for the sport =P
These 2 ah.....can do change of legs, 180/360 degrees surface, crossing the wakes...so coool!!!!!

We also had 2 mini 'performances' by the pros, Jem and Jon!! Wah...that was the first time I saw live wakeboarding jumps!! Jon could jump and somersault across 2 wakes oh gosh faints!!!!

Quite exhilarating watching em.......maybe i can be like that some day tooo.. **dreams**

oh oh! anoher highlight! Jem brought the whole troop to a kelong for a little picnic b4 wakeboarding too!! was really cool! Dont think I have ever been to a kelong in Singapore b4!!!

After wakeboarding, we went to this not-so-open restaurant in Sembawang for dinner... Quite a cool place, hidden yet u can see the HDB flats from afar! wahahhaa..dunno how to describe ! Really thanks to Jem for bringing all of us there!!
