till next time,

debs who has no tut tmr! *twirls*

eta: i lovelovelovelovelove jas’ weighing machine. *heart* beats the one at home ANYTIME. *heart* *twirls* *goes to eat some chocolate*

I have made You too small in my eyes
O Lord, forgive me
And I have believed in a lie
That You were unable to help me
But now, O Lord, I see my wrong
Heal my heart and show Yourself strong
And in my eyes and with my song
O Lord, be magnified
O Lord, be magnified

Be magnified, O Lord
You are highly exalted
And there is nothing You can’t do
O Lord, my eyes are on You
Be magnified
O Lord, be magnified.

Hello, you!

so today was supposed to be my maiden voyage on a tandem bike where i would twirl my hair extensions while some beefcake scoots me around ubin.

wrong.

it became a walking trip! cuz alot of people couldnt ride either. ah well, i had fun. the homo sapiens had to avoid crashing into the homo cyclus (and its hybrid, the homo tandemcyclue) as well as the homo horny. I’ve seriously never seen so many spiders mate before.

anyway, these were some of the things we saw…

1. hornbills
2. koel (super cool kill-the-crows bird)
3. hermit crabs and shrimp fry
4. bluebacked ruffles
5. civet cat faeces
6. wild boar tracks
7. sea almonds and hibiscus
8. water fowl
9. mudskippers
10. mangroves *googoo eyes* (funny note..the cute indian guide went “oh guys please come back, i want you all to lick something. man! we licked a leaf, mangrove leaf to be exact, and could really taste the saltiness. uber!)
11. mona stroma aka the pochai tree. pochai as in the diarrhoea pill is made from its fruit. can remember the name because aforementioned cute indian guide did a cabaret song on the name. monaaaaaa stormaaaaaaaaaa. *googoo eyes*
12. the most beautiful butterfly mating dance i’ve ever seen. they were huge blue butterflies with white ‘eyes’
13. a mega termite condo. i couldn’t believe the poor guys had to sacrifice their roof cuz dr p konked it off with a rock just to see the tunnels and then ask all of us to go to look cuz ‘after all the top is gone so might as well take the chance’. wow, how flippant. dude! and the amount of ant bites along the way, not very worth it! i had an ant farm before anyway. *pouts*
14. cocoa and coffee plants
15. alot of banana, durian and coconut trees
16. stink bugs and stain bugs
17. wild cinnamon

and much more.

the long and short of it, is the attire of course. i am glad i took the advice of various people to wear jeans cuz i protected myself from the savages. those mozzies had probsicous the size of the BCG needle!! according to K., when he goes outfield, it can bite through the army camoflauge thing. oh boy. after looking at A’s legs (who sprayed half my bottle of repellent on her legs cuz she was wearing boardshorts), i am so glad for jeans. but nearly fainted from the heat, esp at midday no less…

while looking at the watefowl, we decided to look for mongoose too. and then a question came. whats the plural of mongoose. uh. *twiddles thumbs* i said mongeese. someone said mongi. gracious. mongi? wert!! oh and mongooses. hehehehehe

the 3-4hour walk strangely reminded me of the Switchfoot song..Only Hope

Sing to me the song of the stars
Of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again

It was fun! talked to my other modulemates too, know most of them from transport class but still realised some u.sp people are seriously a little whacked out, but fun nonetheless.

i can’t wait for the next one, on 28 Feb at Sentosa!! *smirkies* *yayness* we’re going to find octopi (nono, not a strange eight sided irrational figure), sea grass, coral, stone fish, fiddler crabs and dolphins. yay! *does a mariah carey yodel* it’d be the emancipation of me-me too! cuz i would have finished ism essay and hist test. so yay!

i bet ubin is super nice at night. with little cloud cover and many stars…which reminds me of the Train song..’drops of jupiter’

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back to the Milky Way
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind
Was it everything you wanted to find
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there

yay

till next time,

debs who will be the next david attenborough (however you spell his name) or steve erwin (however you pronounce his name)

Hello, you!

i realise i’m a horse, not a clothes horse, but a horse in the way i walk. i must gallop in some wierd slow-mo sense. ok, trot. cuz the right heel of my birkies and my whacked-out-spacey-uber-cool shoes have worn out. that means i place alot of weight on my right heel, and hence walk in a trot. oh well. *struts around and heehaws*

arghs. freaks out at the amount of work needed to be done. faints.

oh small funny side note…was doing QT on Isaiah 32 and the last verse made me laugh

¹⁹ Though hail flattens the forest
and the city is leveled completely,

²⁰ how blessed you will be,
sowing your seed by every stream,
and letting your cattle and donkeys range free.

i thought, range free…free range cattle. hahahaahah. reminded me of the chicken i saw at Cold Storage..the box said “i am a free range chicken” and “i am hormone free”. mummy and i had a good time laughing at the freezer section that day. oh well!

today was the day we got the sms to wear black to protest a fee hike. i wore black pants. as symbolic discontent of protesting from the bottom up. oh well. *shurgs*

till next time,

debs…who has excess pledges and a big headache.

eta: excess pledge no more! hurrah!
