My most 狼狈 day of my life. Last Saturday, I was feeling really bored so I asked a couple of my friends if they wanted to go cycle with me. Only my sweet and beloved little cousin, Benedict agreed. After that Andrea joined in when we reached there. We didn't go to the usual rental shop to rent our bicycle as the shop is almost empty so we went to the shop next to it. They are pretty slow in handling customers so maybe their business is not as good as the one beside. When we started cycling, it was already 5.30pm. So my usual routine is to cycle to the jetty and most of the time my final stop would be at the airport lane to see airplanes taking off and then head back to return the bikes. The furthest I have gone is to the Changi Beach only. Today, I broke my usual routine. We went all the way, not only to Changi Beach, we went to Changi Village and have seafood at this Ubin First Shop Restaurant. The food is good, nice & considered pretty cheap for seafood. We spent around $75 for 3 people for 4 dishes which includes veggie, cray-fish, clay pot chicken and crab.
Our bike should be returned by 7.30pm. But at 8.30pm we are having our dinner. And 9.30pm they are closing! Nice one! So at around 9pm plus we went to find taxi with our bikes hoping some kind souls will give us a ride. But difficult to find a driver these days who know how to put the bike into the taxi and have a kind soul to give us a ride. Andrea and Ben luckily able to find a taxi each. Whereas for me, damn unluckily, being rejected by a few taxi drivers and finally I managed to get a taxi via booking. When i got the taxi is already 10.30pm! Oh my goodness! and in order to get my bike into the cap, the wheel was took off. Some kind soul helped me to take the wheel off.
Finally I reached back to the rental shop safe and sound but not the bike! One nut is lost! I called the taxi driver but it wasn't there! Damn! I thought I was in deep trouble! But the boss was kind enough said never mind, don't bother about this stuff what important is that you guys are safe and sound. I was really touched by his words. He returned my driving license not forgetting to take a look at the photo and commented. "Are you sure this is you? How come you look different? You seemed to put on weight. Eat lesser." I was like... thanks. Thanks for the truthful words. I will surely go back to rent his bikes again but of course will get back in time and not giving him trouble! Haha!
Preparing to go down and meet a friend! I think he is really bored that he is willing to come all the way from Jurong to my place to have milo when the time now is 1.32am. Nice one!
Okay, more updates soon!
Love,
Sam
