went rock climbing today! woke up at 0650h. prepared a light breakfast & coffee and surfed the net for a while. before i know it, i'm rushing off to safra yishun. i took a cab. was the earliest to reach the place. jm was next. then llewell and his gf, pink. lifen(fren of pink) who lived nearby them came together with them. her bf alvin came much later.
the course started off with a mini-lecture/tutorial teaching the theory part. covering the different equipment etc. spotting condemned & unusable caribiners, ropes etc.. i was pretty naughty in class.. causing some laughter with dumb answers to the instructor's questions.
hands on straight after lunch. we learnt how to put on the harness. then proceeded to the wall. they demonstrated the way to belay(be the rope man) to us. then let us each have a chance to try climb up a flat wall as well a chance to belay.
after we 'graduate' from the flat wall, we proceeded to the more challenging ones.. we spent the whole afternoon pitting our wits and skills with walls 4, 5 & 6. jm was by far the best climber among us. his initiative & alertness while belaying is good too. wall 4 is the hardest among the 3 walls.. lotsa bumpy surface. none of us manage to 'conquer' it. will be going back again to practice more another day.. (pix will be uploaded later..)
after getting our sports climbing level one card/cert, we went to a coffeeshop near northpoint for dinner. we split after dinner. me n jm went to gv and got ourselves tix to batman begins at 2110h. watched all the way to 2345h. i slept quite a lot in the cinema. i find it pretty boring. plus all the fatigue accumulated from lack of sleep & also the rock climbing etc.. took a cab home.
a fren's going on holiday to genting. hope u'll enjoy urself.. wish u health & strength on ur trip. wish u eat heartily and happily with ur family and enjoy the family bliss i will never ever enjoy again.. take good care of urself..
another fren's down and veri sad coz of a family argument. police report somemore. u din tell me much coz u said "jia cou bu ke wai yang". i respect that decision. juz hope u'll recover ur normal self soon. i'm down too coz of this. haiz. i feel so helpless. i wish i can be ur listening ear to console. to make u feel better. take good care of urself too..
