-- Pulau Ubin --

i went for a class outing to Pulau Ubin:)
was a bit reluctant to go at first cos i thought it'll be boring..but since it's holiday, might as well go and experience how's the life of ppl there:)

10 of us arrived there at 10am..first thing we did was to rent bicycles. sad to say..i cant ride bicycle though i reli wan to learn badly...who wants to tEaCh me??? hahaha..anyway, thx to my dear fren..we chose the double seater bike. so..i can experience riding it:) It was quite fun..we cycled around the whole Pulau Ubin...until we reached a place called Chek Jawa. i did some research on this place b4 i went..it says that there are corals, sea star, seagrasses..described it to be a very wonderful place. but..not a single coral or sea star in sight when i went there..haizz. What i saw the most was only mangroves and nutmegs..

We had a long walk around the coastal broadwalk. The scenery was very nice..especially from the 6-storey high view tower. It took me a lot of courage to reach to the top cos i'm super afraid of heights..It good to enjoy the nature. Each breath of fresh air..with all trees surrounding you, looking at the sea with such cooling wind whispering at your ear..i feel as if all my trouble were swept away:) i know i'm bad in describing it the way i felt..just get the idea of it :P

12+ we had our lunchie..my dear teacher bought each of us a packet of yummy nasi lemak. Other tourist who were in the hut were so envious of us..bcos they had nth to eat..too bad then~
After we ate to our hearts content, we took a stroll around the hut. We saw Pulau Sekudu..wanna know the story behind these 2 pulaus? one day, the elephant, pig n frog challenged one another to swim across the Straits. Those who failed will turn into a rock. All overestimated their capabilities..so, the elephant and pig turned into Pulau Ubin while the frog turned into this Pulau Sekudu...doesn't make sense right? tat's the point of all folklore..haha:)

We carried on our bicycle ride..it was not a smooth ride though..with humps n bumps..especially those steep slopes...all i had to do was to enjoy the ride..and help to paddle. but my dear fren had a hard time. nxt stop was the wildboar hut. We saw a wildboar kept in four walls..an old uncle took care of it. It was pretty interesting seeing it eating the food we gave..wanna know how it looks like? go to facebook n check it out!

at 4..we took the bumboat back to sg. how i wish to tell more stories bout my trip there..but, i tink..tat's all-.- all i've learned was..never to be there again!! hahaha..i love to enjoy the nature though:) Thank God for creating these beautiful creatures^^
