Singapore Botanic Garden

Went to Botanic Garden last weekend for a walk in this tropical Eden. Nice weather that day. A bit humid because heavily rain few hours ago. Botanic garden has 63 hectare large. And, we walked from Tanglin gate (one end) to Bukit Timah road (the other end) within 3 hours.

First we met up at visitor center to get the map. Journey begins! We stopped at the bandstand for photo-shooting. This bandstand is a landmark of this garden.

And then we saw some stunning sculptures such as 'Girl on the swing' and 'Lady on a hammock'.

Swan Lake. Initially those swans are trapped at the middle of the lake. We couldn't even take a picutre of them. When the tourists (including us =P) start gathered near the lake, those swan being set free. They even come nearer to us.

Main gate of Botanic Garden.

A lot of people from photograpy society also come here for practising their photo shooting techniques. I'm not interested on what they snapped in the garden, but I'm interested on their SLR camera. =)

Next, we found the heritage tree. Why is it so famous? because it appears at the back of 5 dollars note. Hehe... see, that's why we are holding 5 dollars in the photos.

The shortest sign board in the garden.

Water lilies garden.

Bonsai garden.

He was curious what this 'ah yee' doing in this children playground. =P

Jason Goh's farewell at Kuishinbo

We celebrated Jason Goh's farewell at Kuishinbo Jurong Point. Last year I missed the opportunity to have this japanese buffet with just paying 7 dollars (company paid for the balance). This time I have to pay it in full price, around $40 per person. T_T Really pricey. For your information, Kuishinbo is an authentic Japanese buffet restaurant serving a wide variety of excellent Japanese Cuisine, fresh Seafood and other foods. Most important is they serve long leg crab. =)

All the best to Jason Goh. He will be working as a teacher then. No more Singlish! Hehe...

Southern Ridges Walk

Joined colleagues for southern ridges walk. Initially, I don't even know where we are supposed to go since Song the guide never give us information. However we still found it out when we reached there.. =P

We met up at RedHill MRT and then took bus 145 to our first point - Mount Faber Park. The southern ridges walk spans across Mount Faber Park, Teluh Blangah Hill, Kent Ridges Park and ends at West Coast Park.

Henderson Waves that connects Mount Faber Park and Teluk Blangah Hill. It is the highest pedestrial bridge in Singapore.

Clever Momo chan is learning to walk on Henderson Waves.

The English-syle staircase.

What is in the end of staircase? A garden. People is playing KungFu here.

Experienced the Hilltop walk while across Teluk Blangah Hill.

Lastly we stopped at HortPark the gardening hub. We did not continue our way to Kent Ridges Park and West Cost Park because it's time for Momo chan to have her lunch, so as us.

Seems like I forced her to take a picture with me. In fact, I'm not.

A very tiring day, but it's fun. =)

Hustle and hurry world

阿嬷的温暖

早上在等待巴士的期间, 听到了一对婆孙的对话.

孙女：阿嬷，我头好痛, 好不舒服。

阿嬷：昨天都叫你别吃汉堡包, 你不听. 天气热, 应该吃粥。

孙女：。。。。。。

阿嬷：很痛吗？

孙女：嗯。可以不去上课吗？

阿嬷：。。。。

阿嬷：那回家吧。

曾几何时，我也像这孙女一样撒娇. 明明不是病得很严重，纯粹就是不想上课而已. 这让我想起了我的阿嬷。小时侯, 阿嬷总是骑着她的老爷脚踏车, 带着我去看医生。看完了医生，她就会带我去书局买漫画. 因为病了嘛，拿了病假, 就躲在家里看漫画囖！嘻嘻！当我生病时, 阿嬷总会煮粥，难怪我这么爱吃粥。

上了大学后，我和阿嬷的感情开始疏远了, 我了解我该陪陪她的, 但就是心有余而力不足，结果代沟也越来越深。

就是这一对婆孙提醒了我, 提醒我该回家陪陪她老人家了，该好好孝敬她。

Looking back on 2008 | 回顾2008

台湾游
夏秋的旅行。 一起同游的有老妈子，OSK 和她的大姨。老妈子的第一次出国旅行，第一次乘撘飞机。尝过了臭豆腐，依稀还记得它的臭味 =_=''' 到访了台北101大厦，看到了台北城市。尝试了露天泡汤，差点把自己蒸熟了=P 下榻于Shangrila Leisure Resort，享受一个与众不同的环境， 享受一次宁静的夜晚。参观了好多的名胜地，游览了台湾夜市。


新笔记电脑
跟随我的NEC笔记电脑宣告退休，也给自己理由来换个新电脑。哈！

Calefare初体验
参与了新加坡电视连续剧的临时演员，也是第一次和剧中人和照。超开心的。兴奋又辛苦的演出工作，连续坐着好几个小时，也同一个动作做了好几次。


姐妹
第一次在朋友的婚礼上扮演姐妹的角色，好兴奋！第一次可以光明正大地欺负男方，无需考虑地‘虐待’男方，哈哈！


澳门游
约好了好友去澳门旅行。在全世界的经济开始衰退的当儿，我们还是朝着我们的目的地前去，证明了我们是多么的。。。贪玩. =P 吃遍了澳门美食，一天内游览了澳门名胜地。

香港游
从澳门，我们来到了香港，也开始了我们的背包旅行。在这秋冬的季节里，4天内都以脚待步，每晚脚都喊救命*夸张了点啦* 在香港吃了2 次的麦当劳，只因为猪肉在此销售，哈哈！在山顶"抱"过了无数的'大明星'，也吹尽了冷风。抢购了各饼家的手信。在这一次的背包旅行中，也对方向有了一定的了解，好开心！原来我也会看地图的。=P


第一次在新城唱K
已半年多没开唱了，终于这次集合了几个同事在Marina Square K Box 痛痛快快地唱一番，也是我第一次在新加坡唱K。

再见，智慧牙
为了能尝更多的美食，我把那隐隐作痛的智慧牙给拔掉了。想不到这蛀掉的智慧牙也把它隔壁的那颗给蛀了，T_T 我在一年里没了两颗牙。

迎接2009希望世界经济可以从低谷中走出，让我可以有更多机会出国旅行。=P 让我可以再次带老妈子去旅行。*怎么都离不开旅行啊=P* 希望我梦想成真，呵呵！^_^
