then went to meet up wif the rest..think most of us are quite high.. n we r just talking n laughing along the way.. like a bunch of sec sch gals out for excursion..haha then gg to e zoo ,we lingered for quite long at each enclosure of the various animals..oohing and aahing enthusiastically at their actions and behavious..=P then were fascinated by elephants who know how to respond to commands in singhalese..(a sri lanka language) and the rapport between the zoo keepers n them..n also penguins who responded to hp light and did a 'head' dance.. haha moving its' head in the direction of the hp.. n there are penguins chasing after the hp..=P also learnt some knowledge also.. regargding e snakes, boa constrictor and anaconda.. they give birth to their young alive.. not by laying eggs.. i din know tt wor! =P oh then soem crazy things tt we did incld went to children's world then me n huichoon just went to play wif water.. haha then 'ambushed' by a kid who got us wetter than we wld expect.. hee then the other sisters came n join us.. n we took a lot of photos there.. cos it's really pretty wif the water splashing ard.. =P (haha act along the way, we took quite a lot of photos..thank God for Christine .. =))
Generally manged to 'comb' the whole zoo.. which makes the price tt we paid for the ticket worthwhile.. =P
After the zoo trip, thought abt cerain things.. think not the first time tt went to the zoo.. but find today's exp an enjoyable one..act show tt ppl do make a diff..if
nt for e sisters' enthusiasm thruout the trip, dun think this will be a v fun trip.. then also realised act seldom has such a time like yest to really walk ard , observing animals or plants.. or marvel at God's creation.. many times am just caught up with shuttling here n there, reoccupied with studies , thoughts that din even have a good look at the surroundings.. which i am walking in..think reminded em of what my pri sch teacher, Miss Ling, taught me.. when walking, look even at the crevices, keep ur eyes big n u may find unexpected surprises there..=)true wor.. nature is so beautiful.hahah all of a sudden i just feel like becuming a botanist or zoologist..=P
personally, enjoyed gfg .. find tt it serves as an extra opportunity for sis to get to know each other better and deeper at the same time support one another..sometimes feel that the fellowship, if in a grp.. at least got some chaperone then no matter wat will tend to have something to carry on the conversation.. but sometimes feel quite awkward when maybe just alone wif another person cos feel that actually dun really knoe that person and dunno what to talk..then will tend to 'flock' to ppl i know n forever wun know another person deeper.. at least gfg, though may seem deliberate but at least increase my contact with the rest of the sis in the subd..=) ya.. then also when i was still a nb, always feel that other than ministry, hard to find ppl to go out tog..having gfg, at least will have some shared experience n moments of fun tog.. believe will strengthen our r/s also..=) ya.. hmm looking fwd to stepping out of my 'shell' n really take the initiative to know other ppl.. this is one area which i hope God can help me grow in..
