It's a very hot day today! Dar, his brother and I went to Toa Payoh Swimming Complex as VOLUNTEERy lifeguard for this event. It's organised by Boys Brigade Singapore, and it's purpose is to raise funds for Cambodians. Oh, forgot to mention...it's gonna be recorded in the Singapore book of records...for the most number of swimmers, swimming from 10am to 10pm! There were 2 female stuff from Singapore Book of Records to eye-witness the whole event.
I didn't know what was going on until 2 hours later.. one swimmer is supposed to swim one lap of the olympic pool, and when he/she reaches, she must touch the wall...and the next person jumps in.. swims one lap to the other side, touches the wall.. the next other person jumps in and continues the "relay" till 10pm! so, can you imagine how many pple came to swim?!
Well, reached there.. waited for the person in charge to give us our "CREW" t-shirt.. waited damn long.. and i even helped myself to the goodie bag...which is not "GOODY" at all loh.. it's just a teenage magazine and a pink towel... wat the.... I'm not teenage already leh.. read already, feel so bored! haha, but started to think back to my secondary school days.. so silly... life is so different now that i'm no longer a teenage..i'm a young adult! alright... then... to make things worse, this band called "Root Of AGONY"(4 malay guys that's not handsome at all) came to play and (obviously can't)SING a few songs(noises) for us... nobody clapped...hahah...damn funny... i bet i can sing and play better music than them.
haven't been a lifeguard for years.. well, just go and enjoy the event loh.. wanted to swim and be part of the relay! but...i never bring my swim suit... coz i don't intend to save anyone that day! haha~ you think i can still remember my CPR?... there are many weird swimmers... some glide thru the waters gracefully... some struggle thru the 50m.. some swam like they're drowning.. Dar even took of his t-shirt, waiting to jump in to rescue that person...haha.. there's young kids (5 years old), old man (70 plus), and even handicapped people.. well, it's an eye-opener... then again, i have to mention...the event will go on smoothly even WITHOUT the "Root of Agony"...which is indeed very agonising!
Went to Junction 8 with darling after that..went to repair his Sony Digi cam....spoilt :( if not can post photos of the event :( I bought myself 3 pairs of earring...or rather, ear studs...silver and round... and i put them on on the spot.. it was a butch who attended to me.. she helped me hold all the 6 ear studs, waited for me to put on one by one..haha.. i even suspect that she likes me... haha.. she ask me why i have so many ear holes...come to think of it, ya hor.. last time sec sch vain mah...pierce so many..now must waste money to keep them... and my earrings always gets missing.. 8 ear holes altogether.. means i spent $5 times 8 = $40 to pierce them last time.. i then dun wanna waste the money to let the holes close back... then we went to shop for carel's present...can't find...went to causeway point..bought her a pink billabong wallet....then went pasar malam...then home sweet home... legs damn tired.. Oh! bought a pair of rings at Bits and Pieces.. with a little design..and a "diamonte" in the middle...darling likes it leh..haha.. Dar bluffed her mom that both the rings cost $1300 altogether, and she nearly believed! ..so, you can imagine the rings' not bad huh! then waited for them to engrave the letters... we went to play with toys at the children department...damn fun.. saw so many carebears! oh.. and i saw this guess watch..i think it's damn cool! it's like a bracelet...it has a cover...open it up to see the clock face.. nice loh! i'm gonna eye on it unless i find a better one.. now i have to decide whether to buy my Gucci sunglasses or Guess watch (christmas present for myself) ..
