I just received from Muihwee the photos that we took during chalet which was about 2 weeks ago... Hm... Quite miss that short chalet, although only 3 days and 2 night spent at Sentosa Costa Sand, but it definitely is a great one!!! This chalet on the whole was quite fun and interesting. On a whole, I shall rate this chalet 4 out of 5 stars... I didn't rated 51 star because we didn't *tong* the whole night. Surpose chalet cannot sleep one, then played the whole night out, but this chalet which was for 3 days and 2 nights, we didn't. We slept quite a lot especially someone. (Miss Lee)
First day of the chalet (23 May 2006):Nothing much happened as since we can only checked into the chalet in the afternoon, so me and rong decided to go after our work. While Muihwee and her boyfriend went to check in first without us... After our work, suppose to meet rong at Habour front NEL however, she told me that she could take a us from her workplace down to my workplace, so that she can accompany to Sheng Siong Supermarket to buy some things. I waited for around 1 hour plus for her, as she needed to walk a long distance before she can get into the correct bus-stop and that bus took very long from orchard to reach my workplace here. Luckily, she came, otherwise I don't know how am I going to carry so many stuff to find her but those mosquitoes cause my scars on the legs... Sobz...Guess what, we took cab into Sentosa as we were carrying so many stuff and furthermore, it is quite late already... When we reached the chalet, muihwee and Zhi Chang already finished their swim while waiting for us to have our steamboat dinner... We rest for a while before steamboat preparation. Look at our mouth-watering food on the steamboat... Got quite a lot of varieties: crabsticks, hotdog, Cheeszy hotdog, Yong Tou Foo, Needle-like mushroom, Vegetables, Chicken, Pork and fish... Yummy...
After a feastful dinner, very full, very soon, it is 10pm, my Chang Jin time. So no one shall disturb me during that time, got to shift all my attention to this show... Think I am like a TV-holic, being addicted to seeing show... But Sentosa, a small island out of Singapore, their reception is lousy, cannot blame it is off-island not in Singapore... hm... luckily, still manage to finish the show... After the show, Yirong went to bath so as to have a conference talk later with 7 people, crazy gal, didn't know that conference can 7 people together talk, just like a meeting, so cool... i tried before 3 people conference then already cannot differentiate who is talking to who liao, then this time round, she is tying to conference talk with 7 people, that must be really noisy and confused.... haha...
In the end, Yirong conference talk for almost 1 and a half hours, wow, ear must be real pain... That time was past midnight already, around 12am plus... It is time for my bathing... Then after that, we were deciding whether to go to stroll in the beach or go outside to walk walk... That was Yirong's idea, wanting to walk in the middle of the night down to the beach, the 4 of us??? hm... a bit errie... On second thought, we lazy to walk so far down the beach, we dropped that idea, decided to stay inside the chalet rot, talk and slack... However, some pig suggested wanted to stay up the whole night, fell asleep first. So, me, muihwee and zhichang played "Dai Tee" together... hm... Very coincidence as for every roung, muihwee always got the diamond 3, that is why she is always the first one... We have been playing for almost 7 to 8 rounds, but always muihwee got the diamond 3, think she is fated with that card... haha.... We only played till 2am, then sian already, turn on the TV and watch TV while lying on the bed. I liked the TV placement as it is at the top of the bed, quite cool, lying on the bed and watch TV, so shiok! Not really fun as we slept so early should stayed up, but that "pig" slept first made all fo us feel sleepy too:PSecond day of the chalet (24 May 2006):
We woke up around 10 plus, unwillingly, as all of us were lazing on the bed, refusing to get up... However, if wake up late, means less things to play... So we got out from the bed to brush teeth and wash up, get ready for breakfast. We had cereal plus milk for our breakfast. Then muihwee and zhichang thinking of making half-boiled egg using the hot water that we cooked. However, don't know is it the water is not that hot or what, the half-boiled egg turned out to be uncooked egg, so watery. However, we managed to make one half-boiled egg but a bit to the raw side, luckily we tried and nothing happened... Uur breakfast menu: cereal with or without HL chocolate milk; vegetable crackers, half-boiled egg and cup noodles... Quite a lot of stuff so as to enable us to have enough energy to play the whole day...
First of all, we went to play "luge". If we buy 2 rides, free 1 ride, so that means total 3 rides for $15, considered quite cheap... Can play 3 times of luge and chairlift... When muihwee and yirong saw that chairlift, they were shocked, but I kept persuading them to play as this was my third time playing this luge, very fun and anticipating... We played the luge ride under the hot sun, it was around 11am when we played. The weather was sunny and humid, we played chairlift first then luge. The chairlift and the luge were super hot due to the sun, they scorched our butts so we decided to come back in the evening to play the other 2 rides...

This photo is the best out of the 3, as muihwee's camera is sensitive to light... BEST PALS FOREVER!!!
After that, we were deciding whether to swim, to cycle, to canoe? Then if want to swim, I don't have my swimming costume... So I decided to buy a swimming costume, tried out quite a few before I made up my mind to choose one of it... hm... After that, we then want to go canoeing... We went to the booth by the sea then they only offered a package for us which allowed us to canoe for an hour, played 2 rounds of pool and played volley ball. In the end, we did have a great time canoeing at the sea, me and yirong one canoe while muihwee and zhichang another. At first, muihwee felt dizzy, but after that she got used to it... We canoe here and there the 2 small island inside the boundary; when we went to one of the small island, saw quite a lot of black seashells on it, guess what, those seashells were alive, they moved, so scary, no wonder no one want to pick them up... Haha, time flies, 1 hour was so fast but quite fun too, luckily none of the canoes capsized... After that, we went to play pool inside the bar, so pai seh, none of us really know how to play, so we anyhow play and gave up our ticket to another group of people to play..
The green banner given to us when we played that package mentioned above:

Can you guess which one is whose hand?
Soon, it was lunch time and our stomach started to rumble... It is time for food!!! We went back to our chalet. We had cup noodles each as well as tibits to add on... After that, we watched a little bit of TV while enjoying the Air-Con, then we went to play arcade just right below our chalet... Guess what we played? We played Daytona, Sega Car Racing, and the game that we got addicted was "Find the difference." In the end, we did managed to come to number 6, so great achievement... haha:P Time just fly without us knowing, it is about 5.40pm already, imagine, Luge closed at 6pm, we hurry dashed down the beach and run... Muihwee is so fortunate to have zhichang to piggyback her when we ran... Luckily, we did manage to be there in time for our 2 rides or luge and chairlift... Imagine the whole luge track only left the 4 of us, since we were the last, we decided to wait for each to have the photo shot:
I really loved this photo as you can see we all really can pose really well, both timing and coordination were quite good. Moreover, this photo was given free of charge, thanks to the handsome generous guy:)Soon it was evening time, we took the bench train to 7-eleven where we shared a cup of Slupee, so cooling and refreshing... Then we went to stroll on the bench, when we started our photo-taking craze:
Don't know who is the one who took this candid shot of me without any warning... hm... Don't let me know who is it, snap the ugly side of me...
Look out for all those candid shots that we took:


Me and rong acting cute, rong said that she loved the background behind us:PThe 3 of us taking a few shots, trying to satisfy our photo-taking craze while poor zhi chang (stressed photographer) had to retake a few shots so as to make the 3 of us satisfy...



Enough of the 3 of us, it is time for the 4 of us to enjoy photo taking:
Trying to take a shot where everyone of us jump up...But how come only I jump? The rest are slow...
Timing was not right, only muihwee and zhichang jumped but me and rong were only preparing to jump...
Oh no, everything were in a mess, weird hand signs...haha
This shot, we were all slow, due to someone who shouted the wrong timing lorz...
Finally, this shot seemed quite okie, at least everyone had their hands up...
Decided to change pose... Pointing left and right.

How about our backview?
Our Ultra Men Pose!!!
Trying to have a coordination...
I loved this photo... The effect was quite nice though...Finally, enough of all those photos taken at the bench, time to ehad back to the chalet. Before we do that, let's take pictures in front of the Costa Sand Resort signboard:
When we head back to our chalet, we were hot and sweaty, time for a swim, cooling time, we then swam for quite long. Muihwee and zhichang went up first after 1 hour as they swam the day before, so me and rong continued to swim... We also talked mostof the time... After that we went back to our room and started to prepare our second round of steamboat dinner:A top view of our uncooked food, was stirring the soap base:
It is cooking time:
The 3 cooks Say Cheeszy while someone just sat on the bed waiting for food to be deliver to her mouth...
Oops, the food is a bit on the burnt side...
That night, after our dinner, and after my Chang Jin time, we cleared up everything, washed up the utensils as well as threw away the left over food... Guess what, that pig was the first to fell asleep then she still say got to wake her up, but to no avail. After we packed finished, we sat on the bed and played cards again while watching TV... Then we also slept around 2am plus...Last day of the chalet (25 May 2006):Imagine me and rong had to work the next day, I woke up around 6 am to wash up and bath. hm... I still had to wake that rong up, she slept longer hours than me, still dare to sleep later than me... After that, we left the chalet around 7am plus, we walked from the chalet to the bus stop, quite far away... And guess what we took cab out to Habour Front again. Lazy to wait the bus and somemore got to change bus... Might as well take cab, faster and easier... We settled our breakfast (Nasi lemak plus a cup of soya milk) at the habour front interchange hawker center before both of us set off to work. On the whole, I guessed all of us had greatly enjoyed this stay. We yeaned to have a Malaysia trip next year perhaps to Sunway Lagoon... So start to save up:P
