Hello, i'm back from the United Kingdoms. Woohoo.
For some of you that might be interested in what happened during these last 10 days, i can probably give you a brief summary?
Okay, firstly, a 12 hour flight from Singapore to London and back. That's a day gone from the 10 days. Next, after that lengthy 12 hour flight, you immediately start off on a four hour bus ride to rural south-west of Wales where you will start on a walk with comfortable wellies and sensational waterproof trousers.
After that, you will begin to kick random rocks just to make organisms go into a net. After that, begins the long process of looking at the organisms and matching them to the paper that is given. According to the teachers, this is just mediocre to them and what we are doing are just simple mix and matching. After that, the late nights are for you guys to slack off doing whatever you want to do, in which I played cards with a couple of friends.
The second day would be to visit sand dunes. I would love to put some pictures but none of them have been uploaded and mine's full of rubbish pictures. Anyway, the sand dunes were chilly and stuff. I also got to know that there are more than 20 over species of plants on a single hump of the land.
The conservation walk would have been the sexiest and most beautiful walk I have had in my life. I've got to agree that the UK has taken up many measures to preserve the natural habitats of the animals but even without the measures, the view of the ocean at the top of the cliff without any boundaries was breath taking.
However, i have to say that the fourth day at the Field Studies Centre was the best. This was mainly because of the strong coastal winds. I know this may sound extremely sadistic but I felt really good being extremely cold and freezing my balls off. I could literally feel my hands getting harder when I dont flex them for just 5 minutes. Also, the joy of finding the largest crab and the joy of finding the stuff that the other groups have not found, gave much fun to me. Haha.
So basically, after these four days were slacking days and yeah.
just wanted to say how much hope you've given me and i know i may become yet another hi-bye stranger whenever i see you. just the simple thought of this kept me awake the whole night. i just hate myself being such a failure.
