Legendary... Once in a century

Sunday 23 August 2009. Cloudy and cooling day.

Wake up, drag myself to the toilet and was half-asleep while brushing my teeth. Yeap, made up my mind to follow my sis to st. mary cos I had to be back home early to study for the exam before we went out to attend a birthday party. (SUPPOSEDLY)
Unfortunately, we didn't make it for the party at last. Simply because we couldn't find the chalet. The given address was 10 Changi coast national service resort. haha!! despite having all the resources GPS, call-help and road map and we even tried to ask the security guard at national sailing centre, we spent 2 hours going around changi coast and the funniest thing is that we ended up on the same loop near national sailing centre not once, not twice but THRICE. All of us were duper irritated. Especially PAPA. He was hungry ( A hungry man is an angry man).
Yeap, in the end, we found the place. It was actually SAFRA! but they just renamed it as national service resort. Should have keyed in SAFRA country club instead of what 10 changi coast... We were struggling and arguing whether to go or not. Yeap, we managed to find the place BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT TO WASTE THAT 2 HOURS OF EFFORT.
By the time we reached the what they known it as national service resort, the party ended. We were listless and hungry by then. All my relatives came out and we met at the carpark. It was really embrassing as they started to ask why we couldn't find the place. The reasons were too complicated and the place is too remote.
1. "Coincidence"- phone rang. my sis was talking over the phone while my eldest sis was over the phone to find the place too. In the end, the one trying to navigate my dad lost her words. Missed the turn.
2. Missed the same turn... Supposed to drive under the bridge but dad drove...
