Street Luge




"I WANNA GO FAST!!!"

that was all that i was thinking as i was speeding down hill on the luge course today at sentosa.
bloody fun but rather short ride down the hill. (ps, thanks for the help rachel, I LOVE U!)

im actually picturing my friends and myself going there on a remote morning and having luge races down the hill. WOO HOO!
U HEAR THAT PEOPLE??? LETS DO THAT SOMETIME SOON.

anyway, the ride down was exhilerating but super short.

the ride up on the sky chair(think ski lift cos its the exact thing as a ski lift :)) was scary for me la.
i was alone on the chair with my legs dangling down with a latch that could be pulled up and have me sent plunging down to my death.
erk, scary scary, i dont like the feeling of dangling on a line alone from a high place.
it makes me kinda feel helpless.
in fact i actually planned on taking photos while up in the air but decided keep my phone in my shirt pocket cos i had a feeling it d slip and drop down if i didnt keep it.
i was like super pissified such that i was praying to GOD and i kept waving the the indian men in the other carriage and was trying to sing the indian song that one man was singing out.

its just me, i have a phobia of cable cars, high things that lock me in without any way of exit and also being held in a position of helplessness.
imagine if the sky chair gt stuck halfway, i ll be bloody stuck there without anywhere to go for a few hours. or imagine if the lactch flung up and the chair jerked and i fly down. haha. things like this can happen and has happened before!!

is like if u re on a train and the train jams, at least u can get out to walk away, if u re in a boat, u can swim. but when u re high up above, THE ONLY WAY IS DOWN DOWN DOWN :)
