He he he

Post call i took a day off muahaha~ feels great~

Anyway these are the pics i took the during my 2 trips to Jb.

During my trip dunno when haha there was this really big rain and the river/drain Sg Chat behind my house threatened to overflow its banks again~ the last time being last year when the torrents were so strong it actually broke the banks.

Behold the forces of mother nature.




Don't mess with tht



I was so in awe i even captured it on video




The roar of the river was ferocious and i am now forever humbled and in awe of the forces of nature.



Luckily it did not overflow the banks and post rain just served as a conversation topic. I remember when i was young i would love for it to flood which happens often before they built the protective drain barriers. Cos it usually floods just a little bit and would turn my porch into a shallow outdoor pool~


So 2 weeks ago when i was back in Jb we went to surprise surprise Desaru again~



After the horrible muddy beaches of Kuala Rompin Desaru seemed liked Redang. Ka ka no joking nice clear bluish green beaches. But of course cannot match the beaches on the islands of Redang la. Seems like a lot of the beach resorts are reopening. I hope the one called Impian with the lovely split level family studios and theme park rides reopen again. I mean i dun even noe how the place went bust in the first place. Its like the best in terms of entertainment plus it had its own private beach. Instead those hotels which charge exorbitant amounts for a small room can survive pulak.

Anyway we were really happy at the beach



Since some auntie was visiting i was unable to go into the water. Ended up taking pics as so.




Ans sleeping a lot. Ah bliss.. dunno why my mum wanna take unflattering pics of me





Light streaming through coconut trees.



Did not do anything la basically. Just lazed around.


Then made my passport with my bros and mom and it only took like wat the blink of an eye! Seriously damn fast wey no lines no waiting. Just went home then come back to collect 3 hours later. Imagine the last time i did it my then admirer lined up at 5am in front of the wisma perseketuan and when i came an hour and a half later there was already a long line. Then when the gates opened everyone ran as if their life depended on it.

ugh~No more i guess.

But recently i had to do a bit of running once again and tht was during my trip to spore. The passport was for traveling and wat better place to go than spore for a day trip. Technically i'm going over seas (or over straight if you're finicky)and there's the half price spore surprise going on so great. kaka

But of all the attractions that were half price we only managed to go to one place!!

And believe it or not we spent 6 hours in the SCIENCE CENTRE. I know we're such geeks.

The turf club. Always our first greeting from spore at the Kranji MRT station.




Served on a platter of fruits! (The optical illusion part of the SC (science centre)




And that's the mechanical Einstein climbing up and down some rope.




This is an artificial koi pond. So wat just some light projection right? Nope it uses some kinda infrared technology (not exactly sure la din really read everything cos i'm there to play not study) so when u put your hand over the pond it can actually produce ripples depending on the strenght of your hand motions.




My God didn't know there were so many pics. Getting seriously tired liao. So gonna stop here and continue another day la.

Signing off with a pic of Daniel with a Minority Report like gadget. Si i-phones are all touch screen yeah? Well this is i dunno wat motion screen? You can control the projections on the wall by just pointing and dragging and double clicking with your fingers! So we were like viewing pics watching videos with the wave of our fingers. Way cool.



Cool~



Cool~



More on the Science centre trip next time~ I am such a geek.
