191114; Hort Park, Ho(r)t Mess!.

Hi
 Made a little trip to Hort Park one Thursday as part of one of our assignment requirements.
Excuse the mess that I am in this post. >< :>
Arrived at Harbourfront later than the girls and we headed for brunch!
 Had feels for Chikkin Rice so I had that..
 Then I had feels for Yong Tau Foo so I had that too. :x
HEHEHE.
We ended up leaving VivoCity at noon (supposed to be at Hort Park by about 11).
Hopped on a bus without being sure that it was the right one HAHAHA.
So Natha asked the bus driver who kindly told us he'll notify us when we've reached the stop. ^^
Dropped off and saw the big sign and silver bridge thingie. ^^
YAY.
Can I just say something here?
I don't know man, sometimes it just bugs me a little that the colour in my hair isn't...even?
Like there's chunks of colours here and there and not all the way through?
WHAT AM I DOING WRONG. T.T
Okay back to the topic.
 "Hey is this a two-way mirror?"
"I think so."
"Look, you can see the blinds inside."
"Okay let's take a picture anyway."
"Okay you can go now."
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA sorry babes still luv you all. :')
Wanted to head to the Pitter Patter Potter Garden and we asked the dude at the services center for directions.
From how it looked at the map, it seemed like such a distance away from the entrance..
But once we reached, it was like O.O
 It was actually just a short distance AHAHAHAH.
 Was quite disappointing though. :(
 Playgrounds..
 Child sized water cooler!
 Adult sized water cooler!
 "I'm going to take a picture of this and say that the garden promotes kindness and courtesy which is part of social awareness." :'D
 Leaf prints.
 "Can we go over there? I want to take a picture. ><"
 Oh, my cute little bun. :>
 Along the way, Wenfy just started to pick up some huge leaves..
I was not impressed/entertained until she pointed out that one leaf was equivalent to half my height.
SAY WHAAAAAAAT.
Step only.
(If you know what I mean.)
 Cool little mangrove area!
Something about mangroves always get me a little excited on the inside.
Think it was that Mangrove Tour I had at Langkawi years ago.
 Walked back to the entrance to record the route but it started pouring..
So we kinda just chilled while waiting for the rain to stop.
 So I had my umbrella on!
Matched my outfit too. :>
Here we go again~
 Look at these weird tiny Banana things!
They look kinda yucky.
 Papaya!
More water coolers!
No child sized ones though. :/
 :>
 Tried taking an artistic picture.
Also, Natha tried pouring some water on the leaves to make it more droplet-y..
Failed miserably though. :'D
 Twisted steps!
 Spiral.
I meant spiral.
 Child-friendly tap with a step so they can reach it! :>
 Hahahaha appreciated it. :>
So we practically walked the trail at least 4 times.. :')
Was quite disappointing but still an interesting experiencing nonetheless!
Would love to walk on the Forest Walk, go on the silver bridge thingie and maybe even go to the Henderson Waves next time!

Till then!

Du vet jeg elsker deg.
Goodbye

D.I.Y. CAMP 15-16 OCT 2014

Hello!
A few months ago, I submitted my name to a 2D1N camp over at Temasek Polytechnic.
It was held mainly over at the Glocal Connect Village, and the entire thing was called Diversity. Inclusion. You.
Basically, it's more of a workshop-ish camp where we discuss the need to accept and include people of different diversities and culture. ^^
The journey over to the East took a pretty long time but the long bus journey alone from end to end was quite nice. ^^

Got mac breakfast (their ham and egg wrap) which was so much smaller than expected. :')
Reached, registered and got our apartment cards!
Just a plain white card with words and number pasted on it.
Dropped off our bags at our own units and met my roommates! ^^
The lock we were supposed to use for when we left the unit.
The first time we used it, Gina left it without changing up the numbers. :'D
Introduction + poster decorating.
This was our group sticker!
The idea was to paste it on other people's poster..
And the one with the most stickers wins!
Markers and stuff.
Lin. Raichu. Gina.
Gina's from NP and Raichu's from TP. ^^
Really soon after, it was time for tea break!
Some savoury pastries and teh tarik.
YAY TEH TARIK!
The food throughout the camp was really good.
YAY CJS!
Moved to the classrooms after that and got a bowl of sweets!
(To keep us awake.)
So glad they could get along with my excessive need to take pictures of anything/everything and even film (with) them. ^^
Had to write our names and paste it on our shirts. :>
 Lunch!
 Look at that fantasticness.
Fried Rice, Tofu, Sweet & Sour Fish and whole chunks of Chikkin.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat. *v*
After the workshop, we set off to start preparing dinner.
Basically, each group of groups was assigned to cook up a dish;
German Potato Salad, Malay Rojak etc.
Mine was supposed to make S'mores but then we were sent to the drinks and decoration people.
Had flowers so we put it in our hair and stuff.
Just being such girls :'D
Basically just put everything in my hair hahaha.
There wasn't enough candle holder things so we made them with the foil.
Major struggle here.
(Not that we lighted them up anyway.)
:>
The Mocktail bowl + Cups!
Spent quite a bit of time poking the umbrellas into the cups..
Also broke a few umbrellas.
(What's new..)
So pretty, innit!
My fruit punch brings all the boys to the yard~
They also had catered food for us :'D
They had eggplants!!!
Was quite excited about the S'mores.
Hehehe.
The guys prepared them. :>
Spot John!
Our Reflection Poster :>
Chilled and took nap at some rooftop which Raichu brought us to.
Bit like Poolside, but more covered by buildings..
Had a little debrief and then we were dismissed to our apartments.
Took a shower and then we discussed our stories to be submitted the next day.
Got up fairly early the next day, did some stretches and made our way to McDonalds.
Free Sausage McMuffin With Egg & Hot Tea!
Yay!
To return to GNC, we had to pass by the Design school..
And we found these really cool graffiti walls.
So pictures, of course. :>
E-tien lent me her fish eye lens, which were awesome!
Look at how clear it is. *v*
"Sleep is for the weak."
Sleep is for the week, more like. :')
I love these pictures!! ^^
 Lunch!
Was really, really good (because it's spicy).
Like legit spicy Indian food hot dayumnnnnnnn~ :>
Gulab Jamun.
I see this dessert alot but never really (dared to) tasted it.
Verdict;
I don't like it but I don't hate it either.
The syrup is really, very sweet but the little balls itself are very spiced (not spicy).
So it's this mixture of spices and aromas and very sweet things.
But it's so cute and round and poke-y.
Weird.
A few more workshops in and out of the classroom and made a few new friends. :>
My head's kind of tilted weird, dontchu think? :/
Love the lens!! ^^
These chumps of mine. ^^
 2 of the workshop holders!
Really enjoyed their sessions. ^^
 Went back to the apartment to pack and get our things and snapped a few pictures too. :>
Basically, from here down are all a random collection of pictures taken.
ENJOI!

Yup.
So glad I met these two babes for this lil' camp.
It definitely wouldn't have been the same with other peeps. :>
Also super glad to have had the other 3 chumps with me, hehehe it was nice to spend all the little snippets of time throughout the camp with you lot. ^^
 
Here's a little something new I'm trying out lately. ^^
  Enjoi.

Du vet jeg elsker deg.
