just came bak frm pulau semakau. :D pulau bakau *giggles*

hold on, i'll go check on my instant noodles.

yay it's ready!

anyway, it's quite fun. haha. the "tourguide" edward was kinda funny. of cos, when funny ppl meet 4c, it becomes hilarious.

some of the tings tt happened during the shd-hv-been-boring briefing:

1. we were showed an introductory video, n b4 he showed it, he said it's a nice video becos dere's him inside. =.= den when we really saw him inside, ppl burst out into laughter.

2. he did more explanation after video abt the miracle of the landfill. at first he said sumting lyk "singapore is the first to make an offshore landfill that is not made on existing land but made use of the sea bed." he received rather cold reaction 4 tt statement n he repeated. then evry1 "wow-ed" and we burst out into laughter again.

3. for the next few sentences following after, they were wow-ed at no matter wad. so i was lyk kept lafing n when i finally start to cool myself down, dey wow-ed again n i lafed again. n tears flowed out.

4. so the landfill was started frm pulau sakeng n pulau semakau and he was telling the stories 4 the names of the islands:

pulau sakeng
apparently some gal died mysteriously n she was called sakeng n sumhow the ppl named the island after her. (ya, lyk tis oso can)

pulau semakau
so after hearing tt story, he asked us to guess y it's called semakau. n some gal said "some guy named semakau died mysteriously on tt island". and we burst out into laughter again. anyway, it actually originated from 'bakau', the malay word for mangroves. baka! xP n he said bcos evry1 will laf at pulau bakau (lyk we did), dey named it semakau.

5. he asked us to imagine wad will happen in 2045 (the year singapore expected the landfill to be filled up at tis rate of waste) when the govt seals the bins, stops waste collection and asks us to dispose our waste ourselves. lyk how are we going to do tt?

funny tings lyk flush down the toilet came out. n he rebutted wif our hse's toilet will choke. n being the v. smart 4c'ians, dere is the solution of "den flush down other ppl's toilet bowl" LOL-ed.

ws said to put the trash in the rocks n let it flow bak to indonesia (edward toked abt when building the foundation for the rock bund, dey tried putting rocks but the rocks moved bak to indonesia bcos of the currents) LOL-ed. lyk according to him, we're supposed to open up the rock, hollow it, put the waste in and seal it bak up. LOL.

oh well, other random funny tings happened lyk... gayle's singing. haha. she tried to teach the prcs the 123 game blah blah. and she sang sumting lyk "i am vry sad" in chinese and changwei said lyk "we listen to ur singing we evn more sad. haha.

n on the return trip (on the boat) we sang various song. ranging frm the alphabet song to bingo.

anyway, it was fun. partly bcos of going wif the 4c fun-ers. but it was quite interesting too, knowing abt the landfill and visiting the island.

shir has a crush again. lol.

whew, i can enjoy my instant noodles now. *drifts off to the land of food*
