My Miniture Garden


We are doing botany right now and mummy had just completed a chapter on seeds. I decided to make a miniature garden in our house. First we had to get plants. We chose Mint, Rose, Orchids, and nuts. We bought them at Ten Mile Junction and at a nursery nearby. Do you know, what? Our Orchid plant started to bloom yesterday! I was very surprised that it bloomed so fast, from a small green bud to a flower with five white petals! When we bought it, it had only three flowers. Now the orchid has four flowers. I am waiting for the other four buds to bloom. The next day mummy told us that we could grow small onions! I was very excited to start planting it. I will tell you more about it as soon as it has grown. I am looking forward to the germination process ...

The Royal Singapore Air Force(RSAF) Open House

Image
The F15E-Strike Eagle, The F16 Fighting Falcon, The F5 Tiger; just to name a few of the many different types of fighters possessed by the Royal Singapore Air Force. Snaking our way through the bustling crowd, I made my way towards the planes on display, oblivious to my surroundings, my friends, in hot pursuit. Just seeing the nose and cockpit of the plane made me gasp in awe. The aerodynamic body of the plane- perfect for swooping, diving and chasing enemy craft. Armed with machine guns, heat-missiles and sidewinders, the F16 Fighting Falcon was a fearsome sight. This was my favourite plane Singapore possessed. Personally, I disliked the F15 because of its big, fat nose. I could imagine myself seated in the cockpit. The glass lid shutting above my head. The feeling of take off, and if during war, arming the deadly weapons on the wings of the plane, and pulling the trigger, sending missiles crashing into the enemy craft's engine, gaining yet another victory. I snapped back into the ...

Our trip to Bintan(Indonesia)

Image
Last week, My family and I went to Bintan for a holiday. We boarded the ferry called Aria Bupala ". During the ride, I felt very seasick. I guessed the waves were a little more choppy this time. This is a picture of my brothers and I seating at the top deck of the ferry. When we reached the hotel, daddy went to the reception to check in. Our room numbers were 1037 and 1035. In the room, my brothers and I quickly changed into my swimming shorts so that I could go and swim in the pool immediately! But when we reached the pool, I found out that the pool was not what I had expected because there were no slides, only a basketball net. I felt disappointed. A while later, we decided to head to the beach. The beach was my favourite place because there were so many black-striped fish, mudskippers and lots of crabs swimming in the stream that led out to the sea. After playing at the beach and climbing l a r g e boulders for a while, I decided to explore the stream further. We were so surpr...

An experience: Kayaking

27 Feb 2010 One day, at around 2:30 on a sunny Saturday afternoon, I left with the Rangers for Machrichy Reservoir. I was very excited, for we were not merely going for a hike there, but to kayak in the reservoir! When we finally reached our destination, a lady taught us how to paddle, the kayak. After this, together with my friend, Alton we climbed into a two- seater kayak, my heart thumping with excitement, and paddled out. At first we had trouble turning and hit the bank, but soon enough, we got the hang of it. During one of our voyage, we had spotted an eagle. It was perched high on a tree branch. One of the most frightening time was when the current slowly drifted us away from the border and into the fast flowing currents! As soon as I realised this, I immediately started a frantic paddle, as though my life depended on it. At first it seemed to be hopeless, but bit by bit, we paddled ourselves to safety. This is an experience I would never want to forget.
