I Am

dehydrated. burnt. exhausted.
it's been a hot vb game for the last few weeks. we joked that m brought the cloud back home to blighty that we're left with nothing but scorching sun. 2 weeks ago the sun was hot that i literally jumped in court. last week was the same but i toned down due to the fasting. and same goes for this week. the difference? the sand was way hotter than 2 weeks ago. i reached there put my bag and had a chat while waiting for the on-going game to be over. once done i went in and joined the new game. halfway through game with loads of jumping i realised - i hadn't apply sunblock on! the point was still 12-8 that i just bare the itchiness i started to feel. once game was over i knew it was a little too late but i still applied. we took a sun break and played again. it was darn hot that everyone decide to take a break everytime a game is over. few people actually wore socks, which wasn't a bad idea. i decided 3 game is enough and spent time chilling for a while. those jugs of pepsi, ribena soda *which i have yet to try* were very tempting in that kind of weather. after joining the group practicing awhile i decided to go home. everyone was surprised but i reminded them that i was fasting and actually my skin was starting to feel more itchy as well.
bought food for breaking my fast, a big bottle of coke light that will definitely be gone tonight - regardless of my cough that sounds more like a bark and the possibility of another sleepless night after drowning that much coke, i took a cab home.
now i'm applying aloe vera and mask on myself. my feets are pain from the scorching sand. i sense a peeling coming soon. and to think i'm heading home soon! oh well, i'll take all these as a parting gift from sentosa considering i wouldn't be going there next week.
on another note, i finally made the islander card. it's about blxxdy time. yay!
