Yo.

So I haven't blogged for a month ._.
Anyway.... Exams ended a week ago, and yeap, I've gotten back my results. I shan't reveal them.
Then on 18/5/13, I went to Pulau Ubin with a bunch of YTSAs to get up close with nature and to hill-bike (if there's such a thing since there are no mountains in Singapore and thus mountain biking is not possible).
I wouldn't call it very easy since:
1) The uphills weren't so gentle and I had no idea how to change the gears. Though I knew how to turn the knob on the handle, I couldn't tell the difference. So I stuck to the same gear all along and when I couldn't pedal uphill anymore I had to dismount and push. Duh.
2) My butt still hurts from all that bumping -_-
3) We had to hike quite a few places and it was pretty much tiring.
But all that was totally worth it because:
1) After all the stupid uphills, we were rewarded (so called) with an excitement-filled rush downhill which was really really great because it was really so awesome flying down the slope!
2) It was fun :D
3) After the hiking, we were rewarded (so called again) with lovely views. We even jumped over a fence to take better pictures of a quarry from the cliff of a hill! Here's the picture~


Isn't it pretty? (:
We then saw a wild boar too~




And yes, the whole thing was so fun, I would highly encourage you to go too!
How to get there:
1) Take a bus to Changi Village terminal. It's the bus terminus for bus number 2 and god knows what other numbers.
2) Beside Changi hawker centre, you should be able to find this shop called Ubin 1st stop seafood or something like that. When you walk over there, you should be able to find CHANGI JETTY. If you don't, it's either you're lost or you're at the wrong location.
3) Walk down the stairs and go over to the side that says "To Pulau Ubin". Sit down until it's your turn to board the ferry.
4) After you board, the uncle will ask for payment from you. When I went it was $2.50, but I don't know if they did raise the prices, so well. I may be un-updated.

TTFN! (:
