Well, AhGoh invited me to coauthor for this blog; so, well, here I am — my very first entry. NICE.
First thing first, hmm…I have a confession to make(sort of) — welllll, I’m very much an arty farty, anime-crazy, photography has-been, nature-loving kinda guy. Sooo (to avoid any future complaints), I guess I have to state upfront that what I’m going to bring in will invariably be different from our hyper-active and super adventurous Mr Goh here.
It will mainly revolve around the Arts scene — exhibitions, galleries, museums, workshops, concerts, movies and all that kinda stuff. Yup. And, I have to add that I’m a proud advocate for ‘free entertainment’. Well, I’m helping you save some of your hard-earned $$ too, you know. Heh.
Taste the sea water. Dance with the wind. I know you'll have a good time with this ,watersports lovers. Also, if u guys wanna try out something new and exciting, this is it for you cause its really fun!
What: Wakeboarding
Verdict: Absolutely cool man! Although I've only tried once and have problem even maintaining a standing posture across the water, but wow! Its still totally awesome and a totally new experience. Bring some sun block or sun tan lotion along you'll need it. Recommend you guys to try it. Remember, have fun and don't waste your weekends!

Verdict: Ok, I've made some enquiries with the people there and they've mention that the slope is gentle and inclined @ around 20-25 degrees and hence require some pushing at the top for the ball to roll.
How fun is it to roll like ball and then climb back up like a hamster? I leave it to you guys to decide man. Remember, reinvent and have fun with your weekends =)
