Hiking

End of the exams meant that.... we are gonna do all the stuff that we wanted to but couldn't because of the exams.
(try saying that in one breathe. that's what I did when I typed them all. haha)

Top of our list was to check out the status of our flat.
I stopped following the status for quite some time.
The last I read, the piling work has completed so we thought it was a good time to check out the status.

We were darn glad to see the good progress!
The void deck of our flat is almost completed.
After that, they will be building at supersonic speed (lol.. exaggerated a little).
Seriously.. after that its almost like lego building so it shouldn't take too long yea?

The unit at the extremely right corner is where our apartment is gonna be.
Except that it will be on #11 floor. =)

The photo was taken from an existing block in front of our construction.
We were snapping photos and discussing (not too softly) outside other people's apartment.
Fortunately, none of the resident complained or chased us away.
Friendly future neighbours. Hahaha..

Then we had lunch at Rail Mall's coffee bean.
Tried their shepherd's pie and beef bolognaise.
Wasn't too bad, wasn't too fantastic either.
But looks good on camera! (taken on SE Arc)




We were talking about wedding bands as I was sharing with dabian on cartier rose gold rings.
Don't know why the girls on the next table suddenly talked about engagement too.
Me being the busybody was so distracted at their conversation and wasn't paying attention to what dabian was saying.
Anyway I was eavesdropping. They were talking LOUDLY.
Who knows they eavesdropped on us first. Hmm...


Next stop.... Guess where we went?!

BUKIT TIMAH NATURE RESERVE!

I have been nagging dabian to hike with me since like forever.
So we finally did it!
The sky wasn't looking too optimistic when we were lunching.
Fortunately, the clouds dispersed and the weather was good.

All excited!
My hair looks dyed here! And I love it!! (that's my natural hair colour though)
Dabian is smirking for dunno what reason and he is obviously looking at my swivel camera screen! Haha..

Nice graffiti
Trying spotting the monkey!

Yea... we were so ready for the hike in SLIPPERS!
Hahaha.. I think we were the only crazy people to wear slippers

Check out steep steps and my fiance's butt!

Finally at the summit
Woohoo! We conquered Bukit Timah HILL!

Well deserved rest at the SUMMIT hut.
Wasn't an easy climb for unhealthy old people like us.

Love it when he smiles =)
And that's my bottle of water which I lugged up the hill. -__-

Tired us before we head down hill
Dabian looking at the swivel camera screen again. Haha..

Proof that the hill wasn't easy to climb
That's a horribly steep slope
Totally cannot and don't want to imagine conquering this slope on skates *shivers*

Who's that?

He insisted that this is a Japanese soldier pose
Tell me which part looks like Japanese solider! -__-
I think looks more like modern samsui! Hahaha..

Next few shots were attempted better shots using my NEW camera
(I finally got my Canon!)
YES!! This are not taken in auto mode.
I actually adjusted the settings. *proud of myself*



I thought this was a good shot but angle abit not right =/

Love this angle but then not a fantastic shot.

Whatcha think? =/
