SPP outing...
Sunday, October 26, 2008

Well....Well....Another week has left us. School has been quite peaceful so far with little assignments to be done but I expect the worse soon. Week 3 is coming and I'm getting ready to shift to full throttle.

Yesterday, I went for an outing with SPP Club to Bukit Timah Nature Reserve. Before that, I went to Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve for the volunteer's orientation session. Yeap! You've guessed right. I've signed up as a volunteer. One of my job scopes is to guide the visitors along the reserve. I must say that it was fun to meet people from all walks of life. Since I am a nature lover, I really like this job a lot. After my orientation session, I made my way to the Bukit Batok MRT Station to meet the rest of the members.

When all of the members arrived,we were divided into groups and I was in the green group. After that, we made our way to the bus station to board the bus 852 to the reserve. We were greeted by families of monkeys when we reached the foot of the hill. My group went to the green route for our trekking and photo taking. It's been ages since I've done trekking and although I felt tired, the fun that my group had helped me to get rid of the tiredness. The green route that we went to consisted of rugged terrain with high elevations and we took a lot of pictures along the way. We finally reached the summit after slightly more than 1 hour of trekking. After spending about 15 minutes at the summit, we made our way down and by then, it was close to 5pm.

That wasn't the end of my day YET!!

A few of the SPP members and I made our way to Marina Square to have our dinner at Long after which, a night photoshoot at One Fullerton and Fullerton Hotel itself. We managed to catch a glimpse of Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew doing his stroll along the river front at One Fullerton with his bodyguards surrounding him. Outside Fullerton Hotel, we decided to do something creative. We came up with the ghostly images of ourselves and it took us about 1 hour to get that perfect shot. By then, it was a few minutes past 10pm and we decided to call it a night. What a marvellous way to end our day. Ok...Here are the photos:
