Yes, I missed my blogging session yesterday. I was swamped with work, since the date to close the editorial stuff will be next week. I am really freaking out. This weekend will be the on-campus session and I have not filled up my log book. And I have not gotten my supervisor to sign anyone entry. Can you believe it?
Let’s move away from the topic of SIP for a minute while I recall my wonderful Saturday that I spent with thebf. Since we wanted to spend a day together doing something different, we headed down to MacRitchie Reservoir to hike up the tree top trail. Its called HSBC Treetop Trail by the way. Well, I was the one who had to find a way to get there of course and decided to consult the darling streetdirectory.com and to cut the loooong story short. We got lost. For 4 hours. I mean we decided to leave my place at 8.30 so we can spend more time there, like have a picnic after hiking up or something like that. And can you guess what, we only reached at noon. Horrible. But thebf could not be more supportive about it. We agreed no pointing of fingers and pushing the blame for getting lost.
For those interested, you can take 74 from Hougang Interchange and stop at the stop before Caldecott Broadcast Centre. A bit of walking is required but you can firm up your ass at the same time, so why not. Well, when we were hiking up, I got a tad bit claustrophobic and I could see a leaf shrinking. And suddenly the place looked really small to me, plus the sun was not shining and it started to rain. Thebf agreed that we could just turn back and we did, but it didn’t continue to rain so we walked the whole way back following another trail. It was more fun, truly. It was along the reservoir and we saw, a monitor lizard, some weird water spider that seemed to float on the water, watchamacallit and terrapins.
We stopped along the way and sat by the edge of the water and ate sandwiches. It was really fun. You guys should try it. The place was peaceful and tranquil. I am so looking forward to another trip there and I hope this time it wont rain and dampen our plans.
