i think it's time to stay away from night cycling for a while! anyway, what a way to start the chalet for weiyang, it took only like 5 hours before he became like that, haha! gee, take care man.

anyway, a recount of the incident, for bad time's sake, hah!

so we were out night-cycling, along bedok i believe at the time of incident. we planned to overtake these 2 lagging tortoises in front of us, so kenneth went first, then dennis, then i. just to check on the last guy (weiyang), i glanced back.... voila! poor chap's tumbling on the ground, before recovering with a stagger. one look at the way he's gripping his arm, any idiot will know it's no joking matter. (like kenneth said, good thing it's nothing to do with the bones/joints.)

so i reached him first, and knowing nuts about first aid, i kept my mouth shut and examined the wound (for the sake of curiosity). next came dennis, firing a string of frantic questions, of course marked with concern. 10 minutes later, kenneth finally returned! back to me, the only thing i know about injuries is, do we need to call the ambulance? so that's what i asked. weiyang advised calling 1777, so that i did. they turned me towards the emergency hotline though, i must've made it sound too serious over the phone. anyway, weiyang was suggesting, 'call 1777 again'. dennis shot back, 'call 1177 again?'

at that, i chuckled to myself, dennis's not thinking straight. all these while, i was kinda hoping we'll end up calling 995! how exciting can that get! but pity, a taxi approached, and dennis flagged it down quick. kudos! off to changi general hospital they went!

oh, i realize i haven't said anything about the wound. so imagine a stone with the dimension 3cm by 1.5cm by 1cm lodged into your arm, then ripped out, leaving a crater... that's what it looks like. much blood were wasted on the ground! being the seventh month and what-not, kenneth and i fled the scene (with 4 bikes) as soon as dennis/weiyang departed for the hospital.

alright, i'm a little lazy to talk about the aftermath, so that's me, signing off now.
