Hello everyone! (It feels weird to type in blogger again)
This is Jiayu here! I've changed the skin already.
Hope you all like it :D

But of course, as you can see, the posting area is small.
So please try not to exceed the boundaries of the posting area!
Like, when you post up photos, please set it to small or medium.

Example:

Small

OR


Medium

(: Hope you get what I mean yeah.
Cause if you set it to large, well, it'd be large.
And it'll go out of the posting area. So take note yeah.

And please please please don't anyhow add random stuff and screw up the whole skin okay. I painstaking took many many hours cropping the image (the background was seriously ugly), thinking of what background to put it with, how to arrange it, brushes or no brushes etc etc. So don't make my effort go to waste okay! Although, if you wanna add anything you can ask me to add it in, in case you don't want to risk getting killed by me :D Okay? Okay.

Hope you all will like this one :D
Personalised, yo. And don't say you look ugly in the picture.
Cause in fact, you can't really see your face clearly in it anyway.
SO YES! Don't complain anymore lah okay. I tried my best already :P

3 MAN CLASS OUTING TREE PART 2: TOP WALK

So, having faced treacherous photo-taking bears and long detours and interesting conversations, we finally reached the best part of the class outing: the tree tops.

All of us have been there before, it being my second time, but the view was still supendous. If you read the previous post, we only made it in the nick of time, so the guard was sort of hurrying us. Poor dude, everyday has to make the long trek there, stone for the whole day, feed mosquitoes etc. Then again, he gets to breath fresh air, play on the treetop walk and read the many interesting brochures there (which he unfortunately did not want us to take any, and prefered us to go down and take, since he did not want to have to replenish them).

Anyway, pictures speak thousand words so here goes (btw, the bear was too heavy to go on the walk, and was very exhausted after the uphill climbs to the walk, panting and all, so we parted sadly with it with the guard looking at us bewilderedly. I forgot to mention, we have a strong feeling that the bear was the reason why we were allowed to go in at the last minute)ANyway, pictures:

Somehow I look hopelessly retarded... Just cover my face there, and admire the bee-ooooootiful scenery!! As you probably noticed, my face is shoved all the way to the side... Due to Daniel's (bet you are guessing which! I cant remember myself...) inferior photo-taking skills compared to the bear. Furthermore, the thing is bloody narrow, and Daniel (which one?!? its the judoka! can you believe it?! shocking eh?!? big strong dude scared of the potential of experiencing gravity for longer in case he falls, not making fun of him la, i aint no brave soul myself, although being a gymnast, I am cool with it) was bloody afraid of heights so he daren't move much so we had to make do with the lousy angles and the black stick interfering in the picture.
Which also explains my look of pure agony, trying to stick out my head as much as possible and trying to look good for the camera as well. And Daniel took the shot without warning me, so at that time, I was probably saying: I am stretching my neck like a bloody giraffe all because you don't wanna step backwards...

Another retarded picture, although slightly better, all the droplets on my face is a mix of sweat( the trek was long and arduous), rain (constant drizzling, mighty downpour at times) and bear saliva. Somehow, this is one of my least photogenic days...
This is a lovely picture, you can see the bridge stretching for a really long way, and some mist in the background. Lovely! You can right click the picture, and click Open Link to view a large version (i just found out, so cooool!) If you do that, you will see my wierdly contorted face, I dunno why either...

My face is much better here (methinks), and I am




not standing so rigidly, but I am posing wierdly... Its a wierd day la, not my fault, how often do you get 3 ppl class outings with bears?!

Anyway, you are probably thinking now, Leonard


stop hogging the
camera! Yup, so here's the Daniels! Actually, its not that Leonard finally stopped hogging the camera, its that Leonard finally persuaded them to stop being scared and take pictures. On our left, we see the forest real low down. This is the part where Leonard stopped and went: hey, pretty picture, w8, lemme take!


Daniels: NOOO TOO HIGH HIGH HIGH!! MOVE MOVE! But Leonard stood firm, for the sake of you happy blog readers, Leonard fought of two enraged Daniels and stood his ground long enough to take this pretty picture that y'all are admiring now and wishing you had the moral courage and photo skills that I have. Btw, since the bear is no longer with us, I can tell y'all the truth, there isnt a bear! We just put the cam on a bench on explored the self timer mode ^^


Another pretty scenic picture with mist at the back ^^. See, we have neared the end of the happy bridge where happy pictures were taken. It is sad right, ya, but don't cry. The journey is FAR from over!
To the left, we see the happy Daniels who just realised that they spent most of the culmination of the long trek whimpering and complaining about the heights, decided to take pictures before it was all over. This is a happy picture that Leonard used his long outstretched arm to take. Due to the intense stree Ri places on us, Daniel Low unfortunately fell asleep while taking this picture. His eyes could not take the toil of staying open anymore and drooped shut while he was still smiling. Judokas cant train their eyes very much but having to eat alot, their mouths are strong, so his strong jaw muscles kept his mouth open and smiling wide while he slept.

This is a fantastic excellent picture. omg!!! I look like a happy sailor going: land ahoy! After you have finish admiring this brilliant piece of art, continuing reading. This picture sadly have bad lighting... Oh well, all you need to know is that we are happy people.

This picture is so pro. It was a slight gradient so we seized the chance to use self timer! (please dont tell my mum I put the expensive camera on the wet floor...) Unfortunately, you cant really see us very much. But at least you should marvel in wonder on how on earth I manage to cram beside Daniel Low in the cram place...

So with this comes the end of the treetop walk. But need I mention it is only 5 pm! And the last final picture is taken at 619pm. Lots more await: 40 more pictures and a whole lot of narration from moi. But I shall stop from now because I have to go to school tomorrow (Yes, on a SATURDAY!!)

What started off as a 2 week in advance, well planned class outing with many positive responses slowly declined as the date drew near and people realised that their homework had been left untouched and that their CCAs had been left neglected.

From a good 20 people, it dropped to 7 on the day before and 3 just a few minutes before meeting time at 230pm... And that was how my many sms, calls, time and effort went down the drain...
To make things worse, the weather was bad, it had just rained and looked like more would come. But thank goodness the two Daniels were such optimistic people, saying that they still wanted to go despite the disappointment of such a pathetic turnout.
Actually, DK had already come all the way, not knowing about the poor turnout, and DL had already done all his homework ( yes, he is bloody retarded, felt very suaned as I had lots left... ). Anyway, these optimistic Daniels were soon to reap the fruits of their decision.
Off the three musketeers went, cutting through Singapore Island Country Club (SICC), heading for the treetop walk.
3km later...

We had trekked from Ai Tong to the forest path entry point, all the while catching up on the changes since the 2 year plus seperation, while braving the drizzle and walking towards huge dark storm clouds. Looking at the signages, we realised that we were only 1.4km away from the treetop walk, and thus, ventured happily into the forest trek.

Overly engrossed in our continuous conversation ( we still had not lost the talkativeness inherent in 6A as our teachers would enthusiastically lament), consisting of jokes on the definition of CLASS outings, the OBS experience, lamenting on how HCI had a longer recess despite only having half the student population size so they could spend much of their recess playing basketball, while RI students had to descend 7 storeys from their classes followed by a mad 200m sprint to the canteen with a grumbling stomach, before spending most of recess time waiting in line etc. Then, I saw a sign: Tree top walk: 1km in the opposite direction.

We realised that we had overshot and completely missed it, after laughing at ourselves (surprised? we were miraculously optimistic that happy day), and went backwards while continuing ranting. Then we noticed DL's Judo shirt with a judoka throwing a bear, and we happily changed the subject:

Me: Daniel...

DK: ?

Me: No, the other Daniel

DK: Orh

DL: yes?

Me: would you throw a bear that tries to eat you? Or would you bite it first?

Before long, we were nearing the entrance, yet not seeing any opening to any treetops. Sensing something amiss, we saw a beaten track into the dense jungle, with a treetop sign pointing vaguely at it, we decided to venture into the unknown.

Having to fend off slippery muddy slopes and thorny bushes, I decided, enough was enough! But does that mean we turn back in retreat and surrender?! NO! It meant: Me: Judoka go first

Thus, the judokah charged and bulldozed through.

Taken aback, the other Daniel and I followed cautiously behind (actually, we expected a dead end and didnt wanna waste energy detouring). DL was soon out of sight. THen, the terrible happened, there sounded like a scuffle, growling, biting and throwing. And DL came back happily, dragging a bear behind. All we could say was: Ah damn! detour!, and headed back to the entrance.

Then, it started to pour. And you wonder why the canopy keeps away sunlight so well but lets all the rain in... And we saw a frog! Leonard the happy photographer whipped out his camera and prepared to take a picture. It was a small frog.

To protect the camera from the rain, DL held the bear in one hand and used the other giant umbrella hand to shade the camera. Little did he know that he was blocking the happy photographer's view. SO Leonard fumbled with the zooming functions while straining to look through the giant hand. Leonard did not dare talk to the hand for seeing what the other hand was doing to the other bear was intimidating. ANd then the frog jumped away. Oh well.

Deciding that the rain was too heavy, and that the treetop walk was playing hide and seek, we decided to camp at a shelter.

Time: 330pm Here, we talked non-stop, indulge in DK's happy biscuits (he was the only who remembered to bring stuff, luckily, or the bear would have been eaten, and DK and I wont get any for sure!), and act like camera celebrities.

This photo was taken by the bear. Bet you doubt its existence right? But this is evidence!
Half hour later...
410pm
Rain stopped, time to find the tree topwalk! Before long, we had made a complete detour back to the entrance. THEN it dawned upon us. The sign saying treetop walk was pointing further down the road...
Off we went, still very happy and optimistic people. But knowing that the walk closes at 5, and we were now walking in the proper 1.4km direction, we quickened our pace. Or ar least attempted to. DL was wearing slippers because he thinks he is very man, me: sandals, cause I thought we would have time to Kayak, and DK: boots. While walking "fast", we would soon slip back into an interesting conversation and slow down like Ah Mahs.
For eg, Leonard wondered if there was any danger posed by other schools teenagers, while jogging in RI PE Uni, since he did not want to sweat like mad on home clothes, and consulted DL. DL said that he did not get any negative responses while posing around in RI uni, except once. He and his team of judokahs were buying bubble tea innocently. Two people from other schools went: RI are &%(^ers!
DL, being a man, and another even more retardedly strong guy wanted to beat them up. But the others(judokas) told them it wasnt worth it. Leonard and DK were disappointed.
Leonard thinks: what a wasted opportunity, it would be like taking candy from rude babies, and there would be no evidence, when the whole team of judoka were done with those 2, they would be mere dust...
Oh well! 430pm...
We need to pee. At a secluded spot, and uncertain if we would have anymore such opportunities, well...
Then we continued up a slope... and... saw a ranger house and toilets. What risk! We quickly released the bear so we wont kena fine, and.... saw a sign: do not proceed to the treetop walk after 445: 400m. Time: 442
PANIK. We glanced at the sign and ran up a slope: many ginormous water containers from the reservoir: wrong place, down the slope and realised where the sign was pointing: second time where we misread signs... And CHoing ah!
Leonard quickly adjusted his watch 15min back, so he can feign ignorance and garner pity in case they were not allowed to the walk. Happily, there was no need for that, after aimless detours, 6km plus,we arrived at our destination and was allowed in without hesitance. This long winded entry will be continued soon.
