Bonjour!

Spent around 12 hours outside today! Man, is really a super long day I must say. This will be a pretty long post I think, filled with chunks of words and tons of pictures.

9am. Met a couple of my friends in school to go for the YOG briefing together. The briefing was funny but chaotic. There were so many volunteers and just queueing for the registration took up an hour! Furthermore, as I had already registered together with my course mates as a big group together, there was actually no need for the registration again! But we queued for an hour just to get a small slip of paper, for us to reply whether or not we are accepting our allocated positions. After getting the small slip of paper, we had to proceed to the various Lecture Theatres for the briefing about YOG. (It felt more like an induction programme on what YOG was about)

To my surprise, I met many friends at the briefing, be it from my secondary school or from I-guides! Thankfully, I didn't give up waiting for the registration. I was so tempted to give up and walk out of the large crowds of people! However, my friends persuaded me not to. Afterall, it is a once in a lifetime experience. It was so heartwarming when I see so many people I know volunteering for YOG.

The briefing ended very early. It ended before noon, when it stated 3pm in the e-mail they sent us. Oh well, went shopping with Raquel and Monica at Orchard instead. We talked about quite a few things as we caught up with each other, went deep into talk about our dream guys and the comparisons of behaviours between a guy and girl when attached. LOL, lots of difference could be discussed, mind you, really extremely different. After buying some stuff, we went to Mos Burger to rest. Had clam chowder for high tea which is delicious. :) Upon energizing myself, I made my way back to meet my family to have dinner together...

Headed off the East Coast during the evening. It has been a long time since I was there. East Coast has always been a good place to rest and relax, be it individual or as a family. Personally, I find that it is a place which bonds many families together, for couples to have their 'romantic' moments and individuals to chill and let out their frustrations.

As always, I rented a bicycle at $6 for 2 hours and went off cycling. Finally, I did some exercise! Saw many groups of families enjoying their time there - BBQ, picnic, enjoying their quality time at the beach etc. Saw many students having BBQ as their class gatherings too! Awesome :)

Overall, it was an enjoyable time spent there, very meaningful in fact. It has been such a long time since I had so much fun. Oh oh, I saw the sunset too! Together with the large crowd, I sat by the breakwaters to enjoy the fascinating moment. Beautiful and memorable. Fortunately, I took several photos of it and shall upload all the photos together with the post ^^
