Without this emotion, we are only robots
More, cacti & succulents this time.

I had a long week, my (paternal) grandmother passed away last Friday. I have no grandmothers around anymore, and knowing that really really sucks.

Now the future’s sorted out
A story about flowers: a few years ago, on my birthday, I received some lilies as well as a nice expensive-ish kitchen knife for presents. Back then, we were living in a tiny space, no obvious division between kitchen/dining/living kind of small space. I had the lilies in a glass bottle next to the sink, and next to the glass bottle next to the sink was my drying rack where the knife was resting to dry. Indie (our cat) jumped onto the kitchen sink, I was standing there and got a nice fright. I jerked and somehow caused the lilies to fall onto the knife. The lilies were in bloom and its yellow pollen pollinated the knife, entirely. Birthday flowers killed birthday knife…
Since then, I’m not fond of lilies. Or having flowers in vessels. Pollenphobia. Am open to potted plants tho.

It’s a small world, it keeps recrossing itself
This is inside the Cloud Forest conservatory at Gardens by the Bay. It’s pretty amazing what they did with the place. Closeups to come!

Hanging from chandeliers, part two
Remember these guys? I went to see them Supertrees in the day but oh my lord, they are 1000x more enchanting at night. It’s like being inside Avatar, and feeling like a tiny creature under these magnificent structures. I didn’t want to leave!

Hanging from chandeliers
SUPERTREES! Yup, the newest most photographed thing(s) in Singapore right now. I haven’t been up to the skywalk, where the tiny people are in photos 2 and 3. Ran out of film after I snapped these. Haven’t been into the conservatory domes either. But I really like the boardwalk! I.tend.to.like.most.boardwalks.
