Yay today I have a LEEETLE bit of time so I can post about Kukup! Yay ;D
It was uber fun. Except at the suspension bridge. Was screaming like a mad woman. :D Heh.
Somehow when we walked in the mangrove trail, Jia Le, Tiff, Chels, Esther, Bella and I... ended up following Mr Evans around. I think without him we would never have seen anything worth seeing at all lahh. So grateful XD
Like.. at this point, this junction thingie? Met Ms Hoo and she said some stuff I couldn't hear... And Mr. Evans went : "I have a bunch of stupid Singapreans behind me." !!!!!!! We were behind him!!!!! O____O gahh. But never mind. We were really sorta blind.
Saw these two horseshoe crabs. Like, zomg?! The smaller one was like biting on the other one's butt area, and I took loads of cool pictures! And Mr Evans said coz there were two, they were likely mating. Zomg again. How many times in a lifetime... chances you get to see that kind of thing? And they were like swimming around. Were we making too much noise? They swam to deeper waters so we couldn't see them. Maybe even crabs want their privacy :P Heh. And as they were swimming around the one behind... had these black antennae thingies rising out of the water now and then. Were we not supposed to see that? Huh? Was it something wrong we shouldn't have seen? ;P HEHEHE. *pervertic nature takes over* Aww never mind. Got loads of brilliant pictures.
Saw lots of mudskippers! Especially at the kelongs. Is that how it's spelled? SO MANY. I was so fascinated but Tiff was not D: She said if something is so common it's not interesting anymore. And THOUSANDS OF SNAILS. The ones in the kelongs were really big. And Mr Evans told us all about the snails attached to the trees in the mangroves. He said that the seawater from the sea flowing into the mangroves would kill the plants, so the snails collect the salt and deposit it on leaves, which turn yellow, wilt and die, and float away on the water. So heroic!!! O__O I feel. very 自卑. Haha.
LOADS of motorbikes and bicycles in the kelongs. Risk of getting knocked down in the small alley, whew.. Hmm what else is there?? Ah well. I think Mr Evans' a great teacher. He explained stuff so well luhh. We are blind without him *heh sounds weird.*
Bored. Tomorrow have to go Toa Pa Yoh for the ageing population thingie.. today's musuem trip was a little boring... interesting at some parts... but the washbasin explaination/dialogue between some man and woman was a little... ermm. Disgusting is a weird word to use. What's perverse? I always wondered.
Didn't understand the definitions. But they gave synonyms.
Synonyms:1. contumacious, disobedient. 4. stubborn, headstrong. See willful. 5. evil, bad, sinful.So I guess it can be used? Ah well. Have to go :D
See ya all tomorrow. Luvs.
