Experience as Car Washer

After 2 consecutive days of car washing... I'm slag..! I had washed about over 100 of cars this weekend. Honda, Toyota, BMW, Mercs, Prosche and even minibus! The funny thing was, i don't get to wash any Jaguars. I have gotten to experience what the life of being a car washer in petrol kiosk. And most importantly, I learned how to wash a car properly. It really gave us satisfaction when the cars came in dirty and leave the station with shine. Once again, we have to thank all the friends who came down and helped out due to shortage of manpower. We also like to thank the Shell staffs for teaching us and helping us out. Lastly, I like to thank all my friends and also generious drivers who came down to support and let us wash their precious car. LOL Car Wash Fund Raising successful!

Project Semakau: my 3rd trip to Semakau.

This time was slightly different from my past two trips to Semakau. I had to wake up early morning to catch the morning tide. Today, we reached the intertidal area of Semakau around 9am. The sun was shining bright. Roy and I were grouped together and began our hunt for interesting creatures. We started from the mangrove area and saw a lot of shells... Shells shells shells... I don't like to see so many shells because I'm not really good at identifying them.
Just 30mins of our 'hunting', strong wind followed by rain and lightnings prevent us from continuing any further due to safety issue. It was quite a disappointment for everyone that woke up early morning and hope to 'harvest' something back. So well... today roy and I 'harvested' only shells and crabs... so sad..! we didn't even make it to the seagrass area.

So well, today harvest... ( forgive me if i state the species wrongly)

Clypeomonus zonata

Underside of the above. Trapdoor is rough and have tiny bumps.

I don't know what this called but it looks like the shells we eat at seafood center.

This big crab is hiding inside the mangrove tree. I can't really see the dorsal part of the crab...so well...identity unknown to me. haha. (edited: Spotted Belly Crab)

Experience being a flyer distributor

Probably this is the first time I went door to door to distribute flyers (because of the stupid closed letterbox). As part of the fund raising programme for Project LOL, we were doing newspaper collection in some neighbourhoods. Flyer distribution was to bring up their awareness about our event.

Along the way giving out flyers, I discovered some of things.
Some flats really do have weird designs. (which made us go up and down)
Some dog owners keep really big dogs at home... isn't it illegal for those staying in HDB?
Small dogs do bark louder than big dogs and more fierce.
Painted doors by the loan shark.
CCTV outside their flat.

Afterall... giving out flyers is not really fun. haha.

Life: A Helping Hand

I'm seriously very tired now after the newspaper collection today. However kum sends me this nice short clips, so I should share with everyone. Enjoy.

I do love squirrels...haha
