21 Days and To the Bird Park

Do you know what day is it today?

June 18th, 2009
It is a very special day
Cuz tml is Zhi Yuan's birthday....and Hong Qing's one too!
Hahaha!
So not sincere right?
And as if other people's birthdays are not on today or tml

Ok. Today is special becuz...
It is 21 days to the actual day of enlistment!

21 is a very special number
Becuz....it is my favourite number!
Hahaha!
=)

I would be lying if I say I don't harbour any thoughts
with regards to enlisting into the Army

But with regards to preparation
I think logisitics-wise, I have gone to Beach Road to check out
some of the items and actually there isnt anything you need to buy
Maybe some ziplock bags thats all
To zip all your smelly clothes so that your worried-sick mom
back at home would be washing for you once you book out!
LOL!

And on the fitness side
I think I'm ok lah
Don't think I deserved the term 'enhanced'
Cuz I think my 2.4km running time is cuiz to the max
Like 12+ min closing in on 13?
Haha! That's a ladies timing!
OMG can I dig a hole and bury my head inside please?

Plenty of mix reviews coming from friends who
are actually serving or have ORD-ed already
They say once go in will run until siao
"Army will make you a runner"
Thats what Wei Ying told me

I think generally the main concern is about doing pull-ups?
For me I think pull-ups should be the easiest to clear among them
Compare to sit up somemore
Hope both my arms dont get injured these 3 weeks leading
to the actual day of enlistment
The gyming and normal sporty activities which I do almost
for more than half the week should do the trick?
I think I wont die inside too
Cuz I'm PES A leh!
Medically fit right?
Right?
No chest pain no headache so no problem right?

Ok I'm starting to doubt myself
LOL!

And as Tioman trip draws nearer
It also means its the last of my enjoyment days
Boo~
='(

But anyways
Glad I still have outings like going to the Jurong Bird Park!
Or the regular tennis or the kopitiam dinner at Hougang Plaza

Yup
The Bird Bird entry I wanted to type out























Why do we suddenly go to the Bird Park?
Becuz it's....F-R-E-E!
Come on!
Singaporeans?
~Raise your hand in the air like you just don't care!~

Anyways, like the above pic shown
Its becuz the Health Science Authorities and Red Cross
invited all Blood Donors to go there to enjoy ourselves
2 complimentary tickets per pax of blood donors
And the Red Blood Cell is a cute fluffy person as I gave
it a pat on the back after taking the photograph
Feels....like a pet?
=/























This is Jia Yong

I think he's too hungry
And the volunteers gave us plenty of food
Like bread with ham and cheese, muffin, apple, can drinks etc
And the person who attended to us was from Xinmin
Cai Ying said so

And I didnt believe
Cuz......
HOW CAN I DON'T RECOGNIZE YOU IF YOU ARE FROM THE '89 BATCH?!

What the shit!
I still stick to my stand I'm low profile in Xinmin
Many ppl would beg to differ
But I stick to my stand

Nonetheless I just asked the girl if she was from Xinmin
Which obviously was a 'yes'
Then I asked if she was from the '89 batch
And obviously was a 'yes' too
Then I say I never see you before
Which was kinda rude I think?
LOL!

The classes all so near how can we not know each other?
If you are from the Uniform Groups I swear I would know you
From SJ, NC, BB, GB and whatever
I should know you lo!
But I wanted to ask more before the queue behind force me out
So I'm left still bewildered
Dont ask me why
Just a sense of 'puzzled-ness'


















O.o


















Looks are deceiving
They ARE dangerous























As I say
'Looks are deceiving'
I'm cute and you can bring me home
I bite if you want me to
No danger at all!
LOL!
=p























Food is the best way to tame a dangerous creature
As proven























Did I mention Jia Yong was hungry?
He duly polish off the bento set
Haha
Clearing our load by a huge amount

Ok enough about the nonsense
We were there to see bird bird right?
It was the late afternoon around 2 plus
A humid afternoon after a slight drizzle
It was hot and sweaty

So Kobe made a damn annoying joke
Which I think freezed everyone at the point of time

Kobe: "We so late go there. Later cannot see the worms"
The early bird get the worms

Someday I'm just gonna kick him in the butt


















The parrots were damn bright and colourful
And they take are way BIGGER than those small little one
you see the uncles at the HDB blocks keep in their cages


















Cute pink pink thing as mentioned by Cai Ying

The flamingos are weird creatures to me
I mean they look good
But they have spongy spongy necks
Which they curled into their bodies
And looks like some sponge at the basin you wanna
twist and squeeze for the water to come out

Ok I did not just mean that
=.=


















This is called the "Old Man Bird"
No wonder the bird's head looks like it got struck by a disease
HAHAHA!
Ok I meant that!























Ok but they ARE DAMN HUGE
Like open the wing span more than 2.5m long?























And behind the 2 Officers is the King of Kings
Or so we thought
Cuz it opened the wings and everyone wow together
And this pic must be to compensate not capturing that exact moment
=p























As we hopped from places to places
We stopped to take a pic
See Jia Yong is still eating
And I'm helping to finish off the apples
Which is very sweet!
=)


















Plenty of cute birds
They look damn bright and cheery


















And I dont get the tag in the Facebook about this picture
Why am I being tagged as the one 3rd one counting from the screen upwards?
=(























This is Hui Jeen with her favourite bird


Big, fat and blue in colour
Only can run but cannot fly
Has a bad hair day judging by the hairdo it sports
And they cornered the poor little bird
But by then, another one of the same kind jumped out
of the bushes and we were like totally stunned
Thought it called out for reinforcement sia
Phew


















Motorized bird gliding on the water
They SEEMED mechanical
鸡翅膀 anyone?
=p



















鸡屁股?
























And this fat evil thing which Hui Jeen mentioned
Is a pelican

Yes I know my birds and bees
LOL!

Ok. You can throw a baby in diapers at it and it will catch
and deliver the baby for you
Somewhere I rmb seeing this scene in Finding Nemo?

This pelican is again, SUPER DUPER BIG also
Jia Yong tried to tease it by fanning the map
Then we got scared as we thought the pelican was gonna fly out
Shocked until we nearly want to run away
Hahaha!
But damn funny

The pelican can hold up water amounting to 40 cans of soft drinks!
"Incredible? You better believe it?"

We (Me and Jon) also viewed the bird show
It was quite a show
The eagles were very very well trained
And the way they hunt for the prey
Impressive stuff there
Squeezy and humid and sweaty and hot it was too
=(

So after which
We go to the picnic corner and sat for a while
Jon left for SAFTI (so SUAY!) while the rest of us...
Drew cards to decide where to go for dinner!

Crazy but fun idea
And you gotta hand it to Kobe for bringing cards everywhere

So we each came up with 5 ideas
Jia Yong - Fish & Co
Hui Jeen - Newton Food Centre
Kobe - Chomp Chomp
Cai Ying - Broadway Plaza
Me - AMK S11

The most unpopular choice was Newton
But somehow we go by elimination
And Broadway Plaza was eliminated 1st
Followed by ME (S11 leh!)
I drew a diamond 2
T-H-A-N-K-S
Like a loser leh
=(

So left Fish & Co and Newton
OMG
Totally devastated
Glad Hui Jeen changed to S11 and she won Jia Yong tyco-ly

And that's the trip to the Bird Park
Fun and interesting
And Rasa Sayang Western still rocks
But I think the prices inflated like crazy~
*sweats*

But I still stick to my stand that if I whipped
your face with the chicken cutlet, your face would be swollen
HAHA!
=p
