cg outing!

cell group outing today at marina bay! together with e243 and e356. we went for bowling, then arcade and finally steamboat dinner..

well initially i was quite apprehensive about going cos of $$ problem but heck, it's once in a while that we have this kind of things!

bowling.. today i achieved a new personal best! 60! <-- okay,for those of you who get scores in the 200+, this is nothing, but i guess everyone starts with throwing a total of 30, 40 etc... AND.. i scored my first ever strike today! ( i think i threw a spare at Chevrons the other time though, can't remember if i did anything like that before back in my RVHS days in 2000, which was the last time i bowled prior to this year.)

and i think the system in superbowl marina is a bit faulty... it didn't recognise several throws giving my team mates free throws... there was once, one of them even scored a strike because the system didn't recognise her first throw (which knocked down i think 5 - 6 pins) so she had another throw (which knocked down the rest!) so strike lor...

den later arcade, played daytona with eddie! i guess knowing a bit about real life driving helps. cos i actually did slow down at the bends so i didn't crash as often as he did, so tho he was ahead of me initially, i caught up and won!

knowing about real life driving actually changed the way i played daytona. in the past, i had my right foot on the accelerator, and my left foot on the brake. (for those who dunno, the left foot is only for the clutch (in manual car), in auto car (i.e. all arcade racing games) the left foot is not used at all. ) so everytime i did that, the car would spin out of control. but now, i know better.. heh.

though it works only to a limited extent, haha! if we use all the rules of real life driving to daytona, we will lose due to time limit! but if we drive like we play daytona, its a matter of time before we lose our licence (that's if we even passed our driving test in the first place!)

daniel came down in his CLT uniform! heh.. and it was the butt of jokes esp that quite a few of us there had gone through / serving NS and thus are technically higher than him. yup but he's okay with it. though i dont think he'll wear his CLT uniform to see us anymore, haha!

dinner was quite good. a lot of CHC ppl were there! but i enjoyed the fellowship, thats the most important thing, also got to understand my fellow cg members better...

we shd do this more often! but not marina always.. haha
