the trip to the zoo was fantastic.

(:

i enjoyed myself.

but it was super duper tiring.

walking and taking care of children at the zoo is not a simple job.

i slept really late last night and that made me very tired this morning.

initially i decided to leave the house at 7.15 but i ended up leaving the house at 7.45.

sometimes i procrastinate too much.

i almost reached the centre on time,was just 2 minutes late.

the bus ride made me a little giddy.

we got lost following the map which was quite inaccurate.

i was happily leading the way when suddenly this peacock (walking freely) decided to stop right in front of the small passageway.

it made me stop walking.

i was scared that it would attack the children but thank goodness it walked away.

then it proudly showed us its beautiful feathers.

it was so cool.

the next thing that amazed me was the monkeys.

they seem to be everywhere.

and it was while i was walking past one of the monkey's enclosure that i dropped my poor camera.

and it has many scratches on it now.

the more i think about it, the more i feel sad about it.

so heartpain!

oh did i mention that i took a while to find the animals in their enclosures?

i went to the otters enclosure but didnt find any otters.

went to the lions enclosure and took quite a while to spot the 1st lion.

the hippo one also took me a while.

and there were many others that were hard to spot.

i had a hard time pointing out to my students where the animals were exactly.

they were like "miss geri, where? i cannot see, miss geri."

and they started to frown.

so i either had to carry them to see the animal or i just came up with an excuse why the animal wasnt there.

and when they actually saw the animal, they will squeal with delight.

they're so cute.

they get so excited by everything.

we watched the elephant show cos the splash safari show was filled up.

the children quite saying that the elephants were naughty because of the things they did during the performance.

i never really cared about the smells in the zoo but today at the zoo really made me notice all the smells.

i had to endure all of the horrible smells so that the children could see the animals.

i wonder why it didnt affect me when i went to the zoo like years ago.


today's trip to the zoo really made me want to go to the zoo during my own time.

((((:

i'm so tiredddddddddddddddddddddddd!

but i decided not to sleep yet so that i can sleep better later.

(:

tomorrow is the last working day of the week!

FINALLY!

i have yet to submit my uni applications.

i really should stop procrastinating.

its starting to be a really bad habit.

=p

i sould stop blabbering.
