The rainy weekend










Perhaps it was the fact that my body was still aching from the last gym session. Perhaps it was the rainy weather. Perhaps, being the pemalas that i am... i almost didnt want to leave the solace of my own room (even though it was the weekends + payday). But knowing me, i could never keep still at a particular place for too long. My choices were quite straightforward thankfully; either Zouk or every other thing in this world. I opt for the latter. Off i went to meet up with boys to bowl. Initially we wanted to bowl at Kallang Leisure Park. But just by driving along the carpark, the crowd was enough to put us off. The entire carpark was full can you imagine? SO Plan B was to go to ECP. Unsurprisingly, there was a long que ahead of us. I gave them my name and number and they said they'd call the moment there is an empty lane. So off we went again; a Plan B for the original Plan B (Would that be Plan C?). So anyways Plan BB/C was to go and play pool. Another EXPECTED turn of event, there was a waiting list for pool too. YAY! Luckily the wait wasnt too long. So we had a couple of games before the nice people from the bowling alley gave me a call. So off we went yet again to the bowling alley. Despite the fact that this place has been around for quite some time and despite the fact that the balls were all bopeng-ed and the lanes were unstable and the pins fall as and when they like, we still had fun playing. The ambience gave a very nostalgic feel and that difference in environment gave me a personal breath of fresh air. Bowling in East Coast Park was nice; and doing it with good friends was just a bonus.

PS: We had a special guest, the drummer from the local band "Merah", Amer, also joined us and he scored the highest, power giler...
