Timeless Trinkets: Singapore Adventures 3

Singapore Adventures continue with Jonah and Alvin being kept captive in the college..however there came a time we heard an upsetting and saddening news about Sis Meow Cheng, mother of Eliza and wife of Bro Victor. We decided that it would be good to pay them a visit and our last respects. We went to Bradell View with Isaac and Ernest where we met up with the rest. Eliza was in slacker mode lol(she's always in slacker mode :P). The next day we returned to Bradell View to participate in the wake service where Ernest's dad gave a heart-moving speech and Jon Yang led the singing. I can tell Sis Meow Cheng was a very loved and cherished person as there were many ladies weeping and mourning over the loss of their beloved sister in Christ.

So, day to day we study and study. I must admit, there's many things to learn from the Bible despite growing up in a churched background. Anyway, all work and no play makes Alvin a dull boy. So, the LAP youths arranged to take us out on a trip around Singapore city! We took an MRT to City Hall station where we met with Ernest, Jun Wei and Cheryl(I hope I spelt your name right). From there we met with Jon Yang and went off to the Esplanade aka Giant Durians aka Humongous Flies' Eyes. We traveled using the underground passageways which connects from building to building. Lo and behold, Jon Yang looked afar off and saw..AN ARCADE. Immediately he decided that we should have some fun there. Jonah and I were stuck at the Guitar Hero 3 while Jon Yang went round playing the classical Shoot 'em Up games.

look at the concentration in his eyes..wait..you can't see his eyes..

We were joined by Eliza and Ser Ern later which was the first time I saw a girl enter the arcade and play a game. The girls played some kinda banging game where there were many challenges and you only have 2 buttons to press lol. Ernest pretty much owned them in everything xD after an hour or so we headed off to places like Suntec City and Marina Square where Jon Yang once more lifted his eyes afar off and saw..A WII EXHIBITION! . So we zoomed right down to get our hands on a free Wii! I played Sword fighting and Ping Pong with Jonah.

*deep breathing* I am Lord Vader..EAT MY LIGHTSABERR!!

While we were busy slashing and stabbing, Jon Yang and Ernest decided to play archery which was an interesting alternative.

readiee..steadieeee..FIREE!! shag i missed

After meeting up with Alan Poon we headed off to makan! Jon Yang treated us with JCO doughnuts which tasted and looked just like Big Apple doughnuts lol. Once more, Jon Yang looked afar off and saw through the walls, spotting...AN INTERNET CAFE! Without hesitation the guys agreed to have a game of DotA and L4D2. Sadly, we couldn't play DotA cuz we lacked time but, the L4D2-ers went ahead. Surprisingly, ELIZA was playing. It was her first time.

Eliza: Why can't I mooovvee?
Benjamin: There's a zombie in front of you, shoot it and follow us.
Eliza: *shoots the floor* Why can't I shoot ittttt??
Benjamin: BECAUSE YOU'RE SHOOTING THE FLOOR!
Eliza: Helpppp meeeeeee!!! EEEEEEEK!

Benjamin: OK Eliza, press 4 and hold down your left mouse button to heal
Eliza: *presses 4 and clicks on left mouse button continuously* Why can't I heeaaaaalll?
Benjamin: It's gonna be a long long day..

We then tagged along to a "Teachers Appreciation Dinner" at Mad Jacks. The guys weren't happy they couldn't play DotA so they once again headed off for DotA at the nearby LAN shop. Maan, what a very fulfilling day xD

Oh, I decided to add some facts of interest in every Singapore post :D

Did you know..
We normally take lunch at the food courts behind the church building?
