SDC Crossfire Paintball
today had brkfast of brown rice cereal + one slice of bread.
set off.. thought i will be late.. went out of hse and reached bus-stop to decide to take bus 147 or 165 @ 7.30am..
because 8.40am wouldn't reach clementi on time no doubt today is a sat and being a weekend..
upon boarding the bus and having a comfortable seat at the 2nd level and at the most front left side of the bus.. i took out my mp4 and started to listen to radio.. initially thought of switching to music on my mp3.. but turned to radio instead..
reached clementi mrt at 8.45am.. late. but none but one person is around only..
mandy not there.. i went to the gents at the nearby kopitiam.. the toilet filled with shit.. the same shared toilet had the uriner.. i used it.. yeks.. smelly.. i don't know how the hygience and cleaniness of the kopitiam comes in.. especially the closest stall to the toilet.. vegetable rice stall..
went back to the tax stand aka waiting point.. went up the taxi and we are on our way to bukit timah nature reserve..
went to the toilet at the reserve hq.. 2nd level.. then there was the exhibition hall.. it had been some time since i have been there by foot or even visit there in the day much less to say do the surveying on site at bukit timah nature reserve..
after all participants are done.. 9 of us, excluding mandy. including one RI boy who wanted to be there as he had a passion for it..
we headed to a conference room or rather a lab with one long table.. we are distributed items to use for our trip today..
1 X plastic tray with holes
1 X bag of small plastic containers with 2 X iodine solutions
1 X set of gloves
1 X table cloth (serve as a platform to collect spiders)
1 X ziplog bag to put all small containers
there, we trek a little up bukit timah hill. then turn right and went into the forests. it brings me a little remembrance of my hiking trip up gunung tahan in yr 2005.. as i have to grab hold of the forest thick trunk to get on my route into the primary forest.
after some explantions and choosing a good plot. we proceeded to take our surveys.. it was fun catching our first spider and a big one.. then subsequently smaller-sized spider.
after an hour.. we cleared our stuffs to proceed back to hq for examination and identifications of all the spiders we have caught.
we washed up ourselves briefly and went up a short distance up the plank walk to a hut. there, we had our study of the spiders we caught. found one which is not a spider.. but another non-insect, 8 legs.. my team had 2 person, me and another lady. we caught 1 millipede, 1 caterpillar, forgot the rest. roughly 2 daddy-long legs.. ctendils aka more like wolf spider, pronounced as ten-dils, spelled as ctendils..
went to beauty world to eat.. just walked out of the reserve then across the bridge.
someone claimed it is under renovation. but then it is not. =p we had our lunch there.. i had one plate of nasi lemak with nasi lemak rice add bittergourd with fried eggs. $2.60. then was still hungry, a little, maybe not.. just itchy mouth.. wanted to try.. ordered fried chah kuey tiao.. $2.50.
then took a cab with 2 ladies down to clemnti mrt.
me and one of the lady went to jurong then imm. one headed towards pasir ris side..
opps.. forgot her name. we walked to imm chit chatting.. about blood donations and all. then bid farewell then made a call to dave to ask him where he is.. lvl 3 wan chai.. outside daiso shop. up 2 levels after seeing giant supermarket.
went into daiso, seeing my colleagues are still happily eating away.. i went in, came out.. still eating.. went to giant supermarket to buy a bottle of drink. mango flavoured drink at 99c, round off to 95c. =)
went upstairs again..to wan chai. lvl 2. this time, i walked in and asked them what time they are going to head to singapore discovery centre..
dave and i went to guardian at level 1 to buy baby wipes.. then the rest went into daiso to buy disposable underwear because yong qiang never bring any.. hing hung best! never bring any extra clothes to change.. just he and his polo tee + jeans.. whao!
