Hello people! Just got back from the botanic gardens... what an awesome trip!
Now, let me make ths clear. I am not fond of plants in fact I hate things that are stationary. It just makes things boring. However, this trip to the botanic gardens was just super fun!
I mean it... despite the terribly hot weather which makes sweat pour down your face, it was really cool.
Our tour guide was showing us how each flower has a dif way of attaching its pollen to the visiting insect. One flower has a antennae that triggers the pollen to shoot out attaching it to the insect. I was impressed...
Then of course we learnt many things abt orchids... I even saw the fruits of orchids. And alot of orchids named after VIPs. There was one flower that I particularly liked. It was appeared all white but upon closer inspection there were streaks of pink at the very ends. It reminded me that no person was ever one sided.. Even if a person's life seems perfect from the outside, there are problems hidden and only upon closer inspection do you find out that the perfect reality the person lives in is nothing but a facade but the hurt they feel inside is so real.
Ok enough emoing for one day... moving onto happier things... I am going to stay at Sentosa from mon to wed so fun! Three days of utter laziness await me! I cant wait to get started. BUt b4 that I really have to finish my HW I haven't done anything else besides the chinese hw and bio hw...
I dont know how to do Geog hw cos I lost the textbook so I guess I have to leave that one to the 1st day of sch. Heh.
lalalalalala,
Carol.
