Hm today was quite fun actually, other than all the pukey and almost dying while running feelings.. and Kim was a great partner haha I love you Kim! :D We didnt realise the location of the checkpoints were given on the map until we were at the third checkpoint so for the first two checkpoints we looked for random orchids and bananas which unfortunately looked very different from the ones we were supposed to find so we got them wrong ogh.
Lady On a Hammock
Kim and I almost screamed when we finally found this irritating naked statue after looking for every single statue/sculpture cos like I said we didnt know the checkpoints were given on the map >:(
Then Kim dropped our paper with the checkpoints halfway cos we were super tired so we re-traced our path and! Found it somewhere outside the Evolution Garden all brown and wrinkly haha. Oh and we had funny encounters with tourists/a caucasian.. when we just finished one of our checkpoints, this lady came over to us and went "You, me, please?" [does action of taking a photo] Heh then when we were at the swan lake we were deciding [quite loudly I guess] if the long brown thing we saw at the lake was a bridge and this Caucasian who was jogging past us went "Yes" and continued jogging.
Then.. after the fourth station we went back to the visitor's centre cos we were afraid of exceeding the time limit haha hey its good to be kiasu man. Anyway CONGRATS CHLOE QIYING VIOLET HAZEL you guys can do it!! We'll be there to support you haha.
I have two blisters on my right foot now sigh but well poor Qiying has like 5 on both feet so :Z And then the NCOs gave us a geog lesson on why some trees have buttress roots when we went past a huge tree heheh. Went for lunch at Tanglin Mall with them after that and they treated us to sundaes :) Haha thank you. Took 132 with Hazel and Violet after that zomg the bus ride was so darn long both of them were going to Hazel's house in Thompson and after they alighted, the journey back to Hougang was as long as the journey to Thompson from Tanglin so in the end I travelled for more than an hour argh.
PIANO EXAM TOMORROW!!!!!! Please God let Chongying and I pass I think we'll just die if we have to go through the horrors of grade 8 again :( Even the thought itself is.. nauseating ugh I'm serious man and the exam fee isnt pretty either. Good luck Chongying we can do it :)
