Class outing.
Whey- hey, here we go!! :)
Oh, and to that loco who spammed the 3-3 tagboard, you're just asking for a solid kick in the huevos.
Which I'm sure none of the guys would hesitate to deliver.
ZOMFG.
So! With a hey and a ho, and a hey nonny no!
This is us, on the beach. Ah, see? 3-3 loveth the seaside:) Think of all the lovely, fun stuff we could do there. Beach side activities include...
Hole-digging-ambush-setting by Kok.
Other fringe activities include...
Dress-up and CosPlay! With a Matrix theme.
Ameer.
Zhenting.
The Revered Sage Kok.
Jeremy.
And acrobatics a la Cirque Du Soleil , as shown here in this live demonstration by Theck Yee.
Afiq au secteur des rendez-vous.
Lovely panorama of Bedok Jetty. Photo-taking for amateurs on their first days-out with their camera-phones.
My very artistic overhead shot of casuarina trees.
Another view of the jetty. This could be an open advert for publication, look at those benches so close to the water!!
Oh, and should you dare to trek (or cycle, for that matter) the full length of Bedok Jetty, you'll be rewarded with some really stunning views. And some really painful sunburns. (Tang Ge, Lee Ling and I couldn't take any good photos cos we were staring into the camera shading our eyes) And try not to sit down, the benches are really hot. No, I mean it, really.
The skyline in the blurry distance.
Back off the beach. More photos! Carbon flouride.
Flourine oxide! Yay! :)
Oh, not to mention the simply wonderful cycling there! You trek about how long across the entire span of the park, from Section F to Section B, borrow a bike, and breeze through back! WHEE. And oh. I can't cycle, yeah. So dear Lois agreed to trek with me to the shop and we got a TANDEM!!!
Ahem.
Main Entry: tandem bicycle
Function: noun
Date: circa 1890
a bicycle for usually two persons sitting tandem
For those who still don't get the thing, here's how one looks like. Couldn't get a shot on the day itself, sorry.
3-3 took great fun in this sport. In fact, we organized a cycling expedition to Changi (or so they said:)
LOOK AT OUR BIKES!!!
Joanne, our model:)
(From bottom left, clockwise direction: Joanne, Me, Miao Ling, Jason, Zexun, JingJie, Theck Yee, Wai Hon, Lois, Tang Ge, Lee Ling, Huilin. ) This originally started out as a photoshoot for a few of us, then everyone on the beach joined in. Never mind, we love fun in the sun. The more the merrier, and we love people:)
This is Miao Ling, in the twilight zone.
Every cloud has a silver lining. This one's for me:)
 Dinner time. Yum yum.
The Guest-of-Honour for the occasion was none other than our beloved Class Mentor, Ms Faith. And somehow or another the chaperone-chauffeur party got split along the way, so Nisa and I got really lovely legs from pedalling at top speed around the park (well, Nisa, mostly) while I had a fine time considering what expletives to throw to the other two unfortunates. In the end, Operation Miss Faith failed when none of the parties managed to source the precise location for arrival. And the great lady gave up and informed us that she would take it upon herself to trek into the uncharted (and unlit) terrain. It was two hours until she arrived, no offence:) And she arrived at a remotely deserted barbeque pit, devoid of human teenage laughter, chatter and the utter chaos of familiarity, save for a few determined souls who had taken it upon themselves the task of finishing up dinner... 
While their counterparts were across at the other extreme end of the park returning bicycles. And Ameer treated me to a very dare-devillish ride on the tandem across the park. God sent a miracle, for I arrived unscathed with only a pair of very bruised ankles (I lost my footing while pedalling and that dey was pedalling at such a high speed that my ankles got caught and got whalloped in between the pedals) Theck Yee and Tang Ge took the tandem back across to the shop to return. Oh. And another 2 triumphs. LEELING AND TANG GE HAVE LEARNT TO CYCLE!!! Hence, i pray that you guys can be there for each other, help each other out in your difficulties and ensure that nobody gets left behind. -Miss Faith's speech in the class blog. I reckon that without the help and effort of all you guys, that might well have been quite an impossible feat to achieve. Credit must go to, in particular, Jason and Miao Ling, bonafide cycling instructors and motivators extraodinaire. And also, to all you others, for trailing along and cheering us on... really, it meant a lot. So I reckon that at the end of the year we should have another of one of these things, where we all cycle together or sth, ehehe. YAY!!! *BIG HUG*
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. 
To infinity and beyond.
& je t’aime
