Came back from Vanessa’s chalet the other day, lookin like I’d been in a brawl.
After goofing around on the seaweed-ridden beach, we decided to head on to old Changi Hospital (yes, the one which is supposedly haunted). We had to climb up some pretty steep steps. When we walked up to the top, we found that the guard wasn’t there. A few of them walked into the hospital but didn’t dare go further in. Lihui was plucky enough to mess around with this bashed-up-looking table hahaha. We decided to walk about the outside of the hospital. Chanced upon this bunch of teenagers, and there was this girl who was sorta hunched over unmoving. Some of us got pretty freaked out and decided to leave. As I was going down the stairs, I tripped and fell. Since the hill was sloping down, I slid down on my boobs extremely unglamourously. Must’ve seemed like a huge flying squirrel catapulting down. Talk about dramatic, but I could really hear the shrieks coming out from the people behind me as I slid down. When I thought I was about to stop, I started sliding down again. Miraculously, I stopped right behind Vanessa’s brother, who was scared stiff. He stood rooted in front of me with clenched fists. Wanted to get up, but my whole body couldn’t move at all. Had the wind knocked out of me, felt like I’d been rammed into by a bull. Gosh, it was scary lying there, not being able to move. Even though it was prolly less than five seconds, it seemed like I’d lain there for eternity. Finally managed to stumble up with help from Jasmine and Lihui. I was fine other than the numerous cuts and bruises and a deep gash on my leg. I’ve had really nasty falls, but this was by far, the worst. Was more worried about my Bermudas, which were covered in muck, ewww.
After that, we went back to the chalet and played cards, and everyone was kinda freaked from the incident. Found out that I my leg had gotten caught on this green wire. Couldn’t really concentrate when they were playing cluedo, I was in some kinda daze. Must be post-traumatic stress. A delayed one, hahaha.
After awhile, they started speculating why I had fallen down. They seemed more freaked than me even though I’d been the one to fall hahaha. During the night, a few people got injured and they got paranoid and started to think that all of them were going to get injured too. Was kinda like [O.o] but I didn’t say anything.
Shuffled to orchestra practice on the next day with bruises on both kneecaps (which I promptly christened “Twins”) while balancing my erhu on a sprained neck.
