Twilight Sailing
Saturday was my first time experiencing a twilight race. It was fun actually, although I was constantly feeling stressed during the competition. In the end, First Light ranked 5th out of the 7 boats competing. We finished the race only about a minute plus after Relax Lah.............First Light's sibling boat. As a penalty for losing the race (coz we didn't even clinch 3rd prize), the skipper (unc Kok Hwa) and the helmsman (me) were made to chug down a cup of beer during the Sailor's BBQ dinner. They were going 'Come on!! Drink up boy!!' lol. It was quite a fun experience if you ask me. The penalty for being a first-time twilight sailor was also downing a cup of beer (I fell into that category too). So it was another round of beer chugging with some of the 'virgin' twilight sailors. 'Friendly' penalties and protests were lodged and pinned against individuals after that with more laughter and beer downing :)

Went to Jason's bday party after that at Pasir Ris chalet. It was fun.....met some new people and all, but I was super tired a couple of hours later. Thank god Geryll had a car so he drove me, Dora and Jonathan back home. Whew!! It was like 4ish when I came back.........
