Wow. I really haven't blogged in a long while!!!
Anyways, over this period of time, a lot of things happened and not just me but also all the people around me have grown and matured much.
The last post was like dated in March, when Mr LKY passed on. That's like around a year ago. Anddd after a year, I AM BACK. BACK to this dead dead blog that I used to share all my foolish thoughts on HAHA. Oh wells, everyone used to be young right.
Okay so update is: 'A' levels started on the 2nd of November 2015 and officially ended on 26th November 2015 for me, I dyed my hair red at STORM and then i subsequently dyed my hair brown using liese that I bought from Taipei. It's damn cheap in taiwan btw cause its Japanese goods. And then I had two driving lessons so far omg it was so so fun HAHAHAH but its really scary driving a car because of all the responsibilities that come with it. Its too early to say still anyway, I can barely control acceleration beyond 20 KMH.... The instructor was really pekcek that I was driving at such a slow speed. And there are many other firsts this year, I finally used my sewing machine and I made a few pouches as an experiment using fabric from my old pants. But my skills aren't really good enough yet haha nothing compared to Tania's mom okay. And YES, i plucked up all my meagre courage to sign up with 'O' School and completed a lyrical jazz course and a hiphop course. Now I'm regularly doing open classes with Ronnie, Terence, Ryan and Ahlee. I think O school rly boosted my confidence in front of strangers. Thats a good thing right haha. Before I knew it, 'A' levels results were released and I did well, which was really a surprise for me I totally cried on the spot. Most probably going to Pharmacy I guess... ANND before I know it i may become a temporary teacher for Magic Fiddler. It's going to be a very good experience for me.
On a side note, a lot have changed about the people around me. Many friends which I used to be close to start to drift away as everyone leaves one by one for NS, and start considering about their future. Which is quite sad I think. Everytime someone tries to start a conversation or get everyone out for an outing, barely a fifth of the whatsapp group replies. It's really quite qi1 liang2... This time I really tried to get everyone to go for an outing. Not everyone is able to make it, but I really tried my best. Because majority of the group is made up of guys, and most of us have drifted, I know that maybe after another month or so we may not see each other for the next few years or even forever. I really miss the times where we used to talk in the whatsapp group till late at night even though what we really had to do was study and when everyone was so happy with each other. I'm responsible for part of the drift between us I agree, but yea, the truth is, you can't keep everyone in your life. People come and people go. When we enter NS or university, we make new and possibly even longer-lasting friends. Its all natural and a part of us maturing. Its just very ke3 xi1 lor.
Today I went to Zoo and Rive Safari HAHA. Its been like almost 10 years since I last went to the Zoo and this is my virgin River Safari visit. I was particularly excited for River Safari because Dydy and Goofy worked there today.
Zoo was really good! There were a lot more animals that didn't exist in our zoo like 10 years ago. What I find weird is, the white tiger is supposed to be rarer, and is a result of a genetic defect in normal tigers that result in albino offspring, which is a bad thing, but there was only a white tiger enclosure (or maybe i only saw the white tiger one ) and not an enclosure for genetically normal tigers. LOL um the giraffes were cute though! Jubilee was cute hehehe. A pity we did not get to see the Lions. Some animals like the rhinos were difficult to see because it was a really hot day and all the animals prefer to hide in the shade, like the foxes, painted dogs as well as the big cats. The monkeys' red butts look really weird too HAHA . But River Safari really made up for it! Goofy has too high expectations maybe haha he keep telling me don't expect too much, but I thought it was really not bad. The first person I saw that I recognise was Edwin at the entrance haha. I have no recollection of the fishes we saw when we went in cause honestly in my mind I was wondering where dydy was. But yes the pandas. THE PANDAS AND THE RED PANDAS. OMG CUTEST THINGS ON EARTH. I honestly prefer the red pandas to the China pandas. They look like raccoons and I really like animals with this kind of style. Like you know raccoons, meerkats, otters and red pandas, those animals along the kyeopta line. At first we thought that Jiajia was not out because we only saw Kaikai gorging on bamboo leaves like a true man, but YAY jiajia was after that. She was really graceful compared to her male counterpart hehe and really cute. Reminds me of meimei!! The red pandas were just so adorable I have nothing to say about it. OH another point to note was that on my way to the panda place I saw justin and then outside the air con place that kept the pandas i met Weany, who didn't recognise me until I went really close to her. She's so funny omg!!
We tried the Panda Pau. It was not baddddd! I ate the chocolate custard one! And everything in the zoo and river safari is reasonably priced compared to resorts world. (Anything is reasonably priced after you've seen the prices at USS please.) After that we went to take the cruise ride and there was Goofy scanning tickets. The cruise ride was good, and we got to see the rhinos from the front which was really heartwarming because we only saw their butts in the zoo =.= Saw growie and jubilee again as well as some elephants and birds. And I mistook a man for an animal. All he did was to try to feed the elephants. My bad. The guide on the cruise looked like a more good-looking mix of korkor and kangpeng. Then the boat ride was not bad the amazon thing. Lye mun was there. I don't know her personally though. YES THIS WAS FUN! I was really scared when I saw the slope. I am thankful there were only small splashes HAHAHA. Wendy asked me to go to the squirrel monkey forest and I meant to reply her on snapchat with a shot of the reservoir saying okay but i accidentally added it to my story instead. But that aside we went into the enclosure and couldn't see a single one until the moment we were going to exit. The squirrel monkeys are so puny omggg but really really cute. Apparently our timing wasn't very good though goofy said in the morning there were so many. But its alright, we did see one cute one anyways!!
Anyways I do highly recommend going to the zoo and river safari in one day. Its really quite fulfilling and educational! Its like a breather from all the stuff in civilisation, but of course not the poop smell.
Today I saw a piece of poop from a manatee floating in front of me omg. I ALMOST FORGOT THE OTTERS OMG. THE CUTEST ANIMALS EVER. The giant otters were soooo active!! Going in and out of the water and playing with each other. (I highly suspected there was a giant otter double date)
Today was a really enriching day for me :D And now i feel really tired from walking all day. Most active day ever haha my phone is like praising me because I completed more than 18000 steps today :D:D
Shall update with the photos I took using my note 4 again next time, probably soon, because I want to blog as frequently as I can remember before I become too busy in Uni to blog.
SO TIRED. MEETING KEE tmr though!!:D
Good night dajias!! xoxo!
