A visit to the Zoo

It's been ages since i last been there.. the National Zoo, remembering my last trip was when i was in std 2/3 and now i'm already 22... about 1x yrs hahaha. Well i got there a little early but it din take long for them to arrive. We got some breakfast and started our journey but there is 1 catch we r all wearin the same Tee, hahaha all UTARian hahaha and 1 more thing dat is interesting, i'm the only guy in the group of 7hahaha.

We first took the shuttle and have a brief look of the zoo. On the shuttle, they sure acted like... well, like they always have, loud and playful hahaha, they almost call out every animal they saw haha. After 1 whole trip on the shuttle we started our little jouney, now on foot. We went to the lake and took some photos of the birds. As there were some swans there we have to b a little cautious as we dun wan to b chased by them. Later we went to the elephants whole walking we make sure dat we din step on the "mines" dat was lying there. Then we walked to the lion and tiger's den. While walking there liz said da we should show some enthusiasm so they started doing the "lalala" and then boosted and ran, haha... is really fun looking at them. Then while lookin at the lion we heard the lioness roar and quicly went to it. After some photos we went on to the mousedeer?? well actually i dun know much about the animals hahah... i just enjoy the company. Later we got to the ox where liz got an idea to lift up camy and act af if wanna throw her the the ox. I helped to carry her closer to the animal while florence took some photos.. it was like we were trying to sell her off hahaha. After we put her down she complained dat her back hurts, while it should, we did lifted her for more dat 5 mins. I ask her to claim medical fees from liz for dat. Next we went to the safari park. We saw some rhinos , girrafe, orstrich and zebras. We sat there at the shelter and rested awhile. While resting we have some flashback of their times when they we freshie in the uni, we laughed at wat they did last time but liz went to fire at SC for her idea for our group's motto.. well i remember back then nobody have an idea on wat to say so it was a good shot haha ... well it's the past now i'm already in my 3rd yr and they r going to 2nd yr in the upcoming semeter, can't believe dat i've know them for about a yr now... how time flies. Next stop the camels. While taking photo liz saw dat the 2 of the camels were like kissing, so they waited and wanted to take a photo of it, when it did happen all of them we so suprised which caught the attention of the zoo keepers which resopnded by making sounds of their own. Later we went to see the apes. Over there we saw 1 of the ape was sitting there with it's legs and hands cross (well at least it look dat way) so we started saying dat eh ape was in a bad mood etc haha. on the other side there was a big Orang Hutan, wow the hair on it's body is really ... ... beyond words; i came up wif the thing of the "Begger's Clan Master" , i guess i must have watch too much TV lately hahha. But when we saw how aggresive it went trying to open the door to the other side, we were suprised, y did it wanna do dat?? only then we say dat there were some Orang Hutan there too so we guess dat it might wanan get to it's mate.. well i dunno.. is just their guess.

Then we went to look at some cats and then look at another ox?? (hey i'm an engineering student how the hell do i know about family and genus) YK waive her red bag at the beast, and when it give out a sound the ladies got startled and move away a little, then we went to the bench and rested awhile. We started taking photos and later i was the camera man, things started to get ugly when they attacked liz taking some funny photos, in respond liz attacked camy and later SC got attacked too hahaha .. such chaos, such havoc,... such fun hahaha i jsut snap away wif all their funny posts hahaha. After all those crazy move they calm down and collected themselves and went to the next exhibit. After a few more visits we went to the shop for ice cream, i din get any coz i dunno wat flavour i wan, it's been awhile since i last bought ice cream so i just sat there and look at the photos dat we've taken and laughin away.

After ice cream we went backtrack a little and check out some of the animals we missed. Went looking around until we got back to square 1, but tis time there were some animals there. Me and liz took a photo together wif a snake that was placed there by the zoo keepers. While they took photos wif the eagle n the pony that was there. Camy went to an extend to take a photo wif a some1 else child coz the boy look so cute... haha she really cant hold herself down. As we went along we saw some vry, VRY huge tortoise, it's the 2nd largest tortoise. While looking at them the sky started to rain, we took shelter in the reptile house where we spend some time lookin at each exhibit. When we were done the rain stopped which was good.

We move on the the bears where we saw the moon bear and sun bear, i start to ask y aren't there a star bear which i later added a carebear hahaha. it fun talking to then since we had the same childhood, watching the same cartoon as we grow up.. is such a sweet feeling. We later got to the monkeys and later to the aquarium. We saw some "guys in suit" and later wanted to wait to the animal show at 3 but the problems is dat it's only 2 when we got there. Still we sat there resting.. but the longer i sat there the more tired i got until i was totally relaxed. Then they were talking something quite girlish dat i couldn't help overhearing coz i was jsut sitting there and they were talking as if i'm wasn't, well i'm a bit confuse here @_@"" Later liz started saying about yoga and YK continued, i was suprised at her flexibility of her body bending back n front, then camy started too... soon most of us was playing it inclusive me. I manage to do a back lift until the rain kicked in where we quicly ran for shelter.

Since it was raining vry heavily we couldnt do anything but to sit there and wait. While sitting there, liz started singing some of the songs from "The Sound of Music" which camy and YK sing along... such nostalgic memories, especially the goodbye song where the little girl lie down on the stairs and slept... how sweet.... ; well after all those talk of music they went into something more serious. They were talking about work, since tis is a 3mths holi so they wanted to spend the time in a much beneficial manner. Well the last time i tried somehting like tis i ended up wif the orientation committee hahhaa.. well back then i was having classes so i wasn't totally on the wrong rite?? :p Later they were talking about their planned trip... wow i'm really impressed by them, they r really good buddies... unlike my so-called-frens it's almost impossible to get every1 together for something.. well back them my grp was a whole lot bigger, we needed a min of 3 cars to fit every1.

It rain awhile... almost an hour which had got me vry hungry, it's almost 330 and i still havent had my lunch hahaah... well is not everyday i complain dat i'm hungry. When the rain sie down we decide to make a run for it. We got tp the ice cream shop where we stopped earlier and then decided to go for marry brown coz that was the only available option. We got in ordered and waited, mayb coz the business there is a bit slow so all our orders need to be prepared after we've ordered. When i got back to the table, florence told me a bad news... ... ... the mash potato sux... yuck.... but honestly, it wasn't dat yucky... is just dat i had better ones. We enjoy our meal slowly since it's still raining. While eating, liz point out an interesting point after HC took a photo of us. Since the 1st day we noe each other we've nvr took a serious photo together, i mean jsut both of us. HAhaha... we oso make a fool when we took a photo during the UTAR ball nite.. she promise me dat we'll take a serious photo on my convo. Well i can't wait for it, since it'll b my 1st convo ever, i'm truly looking forward for it but i honestly hope dat i'm able to graduate wif all and i do mean ALL of my frens ;') buddies, dun airplane me tis time ok.. and hopefully i dun either

When the rain dies down we decide to get going, since most of them need to report in back early. We quicly get to the shuttle stop and wait fot the shuttle to arrive. When we got there we saw SC and liz slowly walkin toward us.. wahhh need b so slow o not o?? We got to the enterance took a few more photos and we went to our ways... well it was raining so SC give me a lift to my bike where i got my raincoat and drove home. Although it ended wif rain but overall it went good.. it's been some time since i last been here, and tis time i come wif a bunch of frens dat i truly hold dear to. Well all i can say is thx for inviting me to this trip, really enjoyed myself.

P/S I'll include some of the photos of my trip later when i get them.
