Hihi USA (13)
Star-gazing at the Grand Canyon. All the enthusiasts brought out their super expensive-looking telescopes. I actually saw Saturn and its moons!! They also had all these crazy laser beams that shoots into the sky and I actually saw the Big Dipper, Virgo, and more by following the laser beams. On our way to Sedona!! Fantastic breakfast at IHop. Birthday boy. Happy 25th! Super good steak omelette. Buttermilk popcorn shrimp and fries. W0000000000t! The canyon is alive at Coconino! The red rocks of Sedona. Super fun! The water is very cold and fresh…very dangerous too because the rocks are super slippery. The cutest little girl ever. At Sedona! This place totally looks like Chijmes, only a million times better. The Americans are selling Christmas merchandises already. It’s really a big deal here. Hundreds of windchimes in the garden. SLIDE ROCK STATE PARK! This place is superrrr funnnn..so fun until something went terribly wrong. There was a cliff that was at least 10-metre tall and below it is a clear pool of water. Being the silly idiot that I am, I decided to take a plunge into the water. I actually hesistated for about 15 mintues because it’s god damn fucking scary..but I thought “OH heck, it’s now or never!”..so I took a few steps backwards and ran forward and jumped! And as I jumped I heard people going, “YOU GO GIRL!!!” hahaha because I was probably the only girl who did such a silly thing. OMG IT’S LIKE THE SCARIEST FREE-FALL EVER. I was thinking, “Why am I not in the water yet’ and then the water hit me, hard, on the bottom of my spine and on my thighs. Apparently I landed really badly and my skin felt like it was being split open into halves. My back got injured really badly and I couldn’t even walk. The worst thing was I had to climb all the way back up to get out of the pool and it was IMPOSSIBLE TO DO IT. I felt like I was on the brink on death but luckily Clemence and Heng Kia were with me and helped me along the way. My fucking god..it was the wost feeling on earth. Thinking back, it was a REALLY STUPID THING TO DO. I could’ve hit my head on the rocks or died. And I also could’ve gotten a really big fine for jumping. Went for an X-ray the next day and the doctor told me one of the sections in my vertebral is compressed and it might be serious..so I’ll need to go back to Singapore to do a full-body MRI scan. Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit -.-. And I no longer need to be a server because there is no way I can carry any dishes in my condition. I don’t even think I can do any work now. Sigh. And the gang actually went for a super delicious Chinese buffet after Slide Rock..I had no ability to eat anything…wanted to dieeeeeeeeee. This is actually my 3rd day of resting and I still feel like crap. I hope nothing serious has happened to my spine. A dream catcher..in the middle is a gem of a native bear..forgot the name though. This is soo pretty And I shall go and rest my poor, useless back now.
