Giraffes for friends
A short one today. Taken at the zoo, such amazing creatures.
The heat has been so unkind! It makes going out so hard to do… makes doing anything so hard to do. I did go shave the bottom half of my hair off tho.

No, let it be Sunday all over again
Ada was back to visit a few months ago! There’s more to see on her blog, she’s one heck of a lucky girl, going to Disneyland and all that.
Also, this post marks the beginning of many more plant-nature-green related posts to come. These were taken at the eco garden at the Science Centre.

In spirit of the General Elections, I thought I’d post some photos that speak of me and Singapore. I’ve accumulated so many photos of greenery and nature and animals and trees cos I went to the zoo and a farm and an eco garden and then the orchid garden at the botanic gardens!!!, so I sorted these few out of the lot. And in these, there are still trees!
Anyway tomorrow is Polling Day, a huge day for all Singaporeans and it’s gonna be my first time voting. All my friends and I are super excited. I can’t put it into words, my vocab is at that place where everything is either awesome or not. And I’m also feeling a huge sense of responsibility so put the two together, I’m feeling awesome responsibility! Ha!
Coming back to the photos, sometimes I can’t decide if it’s better to write captions under each photo or not. Sometimes I do it that way, sometimes I don’t. I dislike the inconsistency but it’s weird to list down the captions and then talk about the Elections. But if you want to know where the photo was taken or what’s it about, I usually write down some words on the Flickr page so click on the photos to get there oright?

Back in February
My grandmother’s walker + little basket of neatly folded tissues
This is she!
Together with me mom
And this is my ahgong (grandfather), and part of me dad
My grandmother’s room
Some super old and super cool ointments which my grandfather dug out from the storeroom (they still smelled like working ointment!)
This was taken during Chinese New Year which is why both the ladies are wearing their floral bests. I should wear something floral next year to join in the festivities huh, maybe I will. I see now that part of my dad is cut off in the photo and I can’t help but evil laugh because he said my face was getting chubbier right before I took out my camera so maybe…. just maybe I wanted to cut him out. Evil wicked heh heh heh.
