Millions and zillions of apologies for the lack of updates.
Have been really busy with school stuff this week that the time I have for myself was also restricted.

Many projects and reports coming up.
Sigh...

I can't wait for the end-examinations to come and then followed by the 2 months term break!
HURRAY !!

And bcos I wanted to blog so badly, I actually skipped lunch to resize photos and blog.
Thankfully I have those tapioca chips with me.
Else, I would have prolly been dead by now.



08/07/08 [TUESDAY]

A day which I've been waiting for..
It's our Sungei Buloh trip organized by our GreenVision Lecturer.

But before I proceed, I must warn u guys that this would be a picture-filled post with many sceneries, plants and animals.

If the S'pore wetlands doesn't interest you at all, then I will strongly encourage you to cross the window and wait for my next post.
:) :) :)

There was even bus provided to and fro.
How nice!


But, to our disappointment, the sky got darker and it started to rain very heavily.
Hence, we slacked on the bus while waiting for the late comers and the rain to stop.


With my beautiful girls in the bus..


Jin girlfriend.


& of course, my diadia girlfriend.

Upon reaching, the weather got better and the sun was smiling heartily at us.

And our 1st stop was the toilet before entering the theatre for a short video clip on Sungei Buloh Wetlands Reserve.


To our surprise, the toilet is oh-so-classy can!!

It's way beyong our expectations that we wld see sucha toilet at a Wetland Reserve.


Clean & Green with many beautiful plantings.
No wonder it's a Nature Reserve.


The full-length mirrors that occupy amost half of the toilet.

SungeiBuloh really understand and meets the needs of their visitors esp the women.

haha!


I don't mind spending more time in the toilet but we were late for the video clip

:'(

Video clip wasn't boring at all. Not a singel minute of it.

I was so enthu abt it that I actually noted some important points down as references for my trip's report.

Michelle is sucha good & hardworking student. haha !

After the video is the exploring of the wetland reserve.

Though the route we were walking is one of the shortest and we gave the others a missed, but the journey was fun-filled and excited.

And of course, knowledge was also gained from the walk.












Oops. Was caught stone-ing,
haha..



The home for the crabs.


The fiddler crabs.

How are these crabs differ from normal crabs?

hehe !




my 2 darlings..

Fungi spotted by Jin..


Take a closer look or try clicking on the image.

You'll be able to see the crabs.



Pencil roots.



I look like some kinda cancer-like patient here..
Cap/Hat is a big NONO for me.



Jin loves the fresh air there.

She was constantly telling me how fresh the air we were breathing was.





















Off-coast is our neighbour country, Malaysia..


Caught admiring photos w/out me !!



I wonder who actually went on the mud...

Definitely not those mud-skippers.


They were seeing the cars on the road of M'sia.



Spot the mud-skipper?









Jin and ferns..
haha





An example of why wetlands reserve is imprt.




Hanging roots...



I was potinting to a very huge monitor lizard.
Sorry for the dark resolution bcos we were afraid that the flash light my scare off the animal.

you see it ?

It's walking away from us...


A smaller hole for Lydia.
She was saying that that's her hole.
LOL!

The little Egrets.
They're not the migrating birds though..
However, they're beautiful!
Special-like kinda roots..





Poor Kelvin, he had to slouch so much to accomodate Lydia.





Our guide for the day..



The entrance before leaving the place..


And guess what? The monitor lizard came to bid us off.
I don't know if it's the same one that we saw earlier..

BYE!!
Many asked, " Huh? You go Sungei Buloh? Sure or not?"
My reply, Yes! I've went and Im gonna visit there again soon!!
If you guys haven't been there, then I strongly urge u to do so.
Understand the nature and the importance of it.
Gradually, you'll adapt to the likings of wetlands like the mangrove swamps.
The 3 of us, with 3 of our male classmates dropped at Bukit Panjang Plaza for lunch while the rest went back to school.
After a long consideration, we finally settled down with Cafe Cartel.
Slacked, chilled and talked alot until Daddy & Mommy came to pick me while the 5 of them stayed.
Went to accompany them for lunch and off to a showroom to pay one of our interior designers for a talk about the renovations of my place.
Home-sweet-home after and tessa was alrdy at my place waiting for me with another interior designer. haha! Mom is sure busy !



I glad that each time i see you, you're getting healthier.
Take my clothes as ur motivator and aim towards your goal.
Im sure you're able to do that.

See ya soon again sweetie.
