Salam.
Well, getting bored with updates about only some of us? Wanting to know about us in whole? Now, you have it. It is about the six of us in a tow. Six? Yes. One couldn't make it. But of course, she is still in our heart.
So, wanna guess what was the choosen place of our gathering? Sentosa? Pulau Ubin? Kallang river? No, no, no. The new Marina barrage found its way into our heart. So, Marina Barrage it is! Yeah, of course we want to visit the latest addition in the city. To come up with colour theme wasn't successful as some had already planned of what to wear.
So on the day itself, we met at the nearest MRT station. Wow, everyone came just on time. Very good! The weather was scotching hot by the time we were walking to the bus stop. Why, it is in the middle of the hectic constructions.
Before confirming to go to Marina Barrage, there were a lot of comments from people telling us how hot there is. But we don't really mind. Back to the story, there were quite a lot of people. Maybe they were just like us, first-time visitors.
Our basic plan is just to have a gathering since some of us had been studying overseas. It's been a year since our last gathering and that wasn't incomplete too.=( After all, we just have to go on with our plan. When is gonna be the next time? We never know. Despite the basic plan, a birthday surprise was also planned last minute. We just want to make it a normal birthday surprise with a slight touch in the heart. The birthday surprise is for our Along belated birthday and Angah advanced birthday. Poor Along, we couldn't celebrate her birthday since she was at KUIS that very day. After all, we were very happy to hear that both of them, Along and Angah were contented about it. A big sorry for Along for the lie. Cousin's house, huh? Hehe.
Along the reservoir at MB, we found a so- called resting place and made ourself comfortable. It is better to enjoy the scenery in the resting place than suffered the hot weather walking along the bridge. So what are the must-do thing there? Camwhoring, people! Come on, it will be such a waste to go all the way there and never bring something home. The pictures will definitely store a lot of memories. BUT, the memories will never fade in our hearts.
So, we celebrate Along and Angah birthday there. It was so hard to start the surprise as the place is very limited hence it was so hard to give signal. But we were to blame for not planning beforehand. Story-time started after that for each and everyone of us to give the latest update about themselves. We called ourselves sisters but sometimes don't know what are they doing right now. So, this is the best time. But of course, all of it are better kept confidential and are only for us to go through. Pray for us.
Along the session, we hop on to the third floor. It was so awesome and very green. Did I mention that we could see the Esplanade area from there including The Eye? Maybe you guys should go there to see for yourself. There were some people flying their kites and one of them managed to fly his kite very high up in the air. If only we could do that. It was almost time for Zohr prayer and we thought of praying at the corner. But because of some problems, we decided to go all the way to Bugis to pray at Sultan Mosque. And we are not complaining. Before we left the Barrage, we took opportunities to capture as much pictures as we can. Some more with the oh-so-beautiful scenery. Despite the very hot weather, the sky was starting to darken and the rain eventually pour and it became the wettest day.
Using the umbrella wasn't really a much of help. Some of us were half- wet. But yeah, we shared the umbrella, 2-in-1. After tired being so energetic, we really need to fill our hungry stomach. We thought of the fast food. But Minang became our choice as it promises a more private dining together time. So, it was really private. Only the six of us on the second floor and it was so romantic. No, it wasn't because of the only six of us there but the music played was very romantic. It is so funny. But one of us said that it could make us cry. Yeah, since we didn't really enjoy the romance part of the song, it became so sentimental.
After eating, we took our own sweet time capturing more pictures and made ourselves home on the second floor of the restaurant. None of us had the idea that on the first floor, the tenders were cleaning the restaurant and were getting ready to close the stall. Fortunately, we somehow realised it and went down just in time. If not, we will be locked up and this post will be longer to elaborate the suspense. So, all wells ended well and alhamdulillah we enjoyed ourselves very much on that day. And yeah, thanks to the sun for tanning one of us. Overall, it was a splendid and thanks to eveyone.
Where's the pictures, you ask? Don't worry, it will come right up.
